Great warships

Chapter 251 My son-in-law got it back!
I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen such stupid people, who actually use this kind of thing to fool people!

Mikhail's heart was full of anger. His fists were clenched, and the veins on his arms were bulging. His eyes radiated anger, as if he wanted to kill someone.

He trotted all the way out of the office, and when he entered the workshop, he calmed down a little bit. If someone saw this state, they would definitely know that he had encountered something unpleasant.

Although I was cheated, this kind of thing can't be said.

Mikhail took a deep breath and walked in slowly.

At this time, Qin Tao and Wang Lao, under the leadership of Sergey, were slowly inspecting the workshop and saw the last plane on board.

This is an ordinary Il-76 transport plane, which has just begun to be assembled. Someone is installing a sky-blue instrument panel. Inside the cockpit, the threads are messy and the instruments are flying around, making it look dazzling.

"I heard that the west has already started to make glass cockpits." Qin Tao said: "Advanced data bus is used to transmit data. There are only a few monitors in the cockpit, which looks very neat. Soviet technology is advanced. Is there such a thing?" A similar remodeled aircraft?"

Data bus, only a few displays?

Sergey who was present was a little embarrassed. This technology is of course advanced, but it is still far away from Lao Maozi's electronic technology!
Fortunately, Mikhail came over without him needing to answer, with a smile on his face: "Qin, the Soviet is gone."

"Yeah, it's gone. I always talk about this country unconsciously. Alas." Qin Tao sighed.

In fact, the people present more or less felt the same sigh in their hearts.

For those ambitious people, of course they want to separate their families and live their lives. Their countries are all strong, and they have to drag weak countries, and for Platinum Country, it is equivalent to taking advantage.

If there is no Red Empire, can they build a modern aircraft factory here?Just think about it and you'll know it's impossible.

Now, the Red Empire is gone, and their current aircraft factory can only continue to produce aircraft according to the original technology. Want to improve?
The Ilyushin Design Bureau is far away in Moscow, how could it be possible to send them improved drawings for free?It will inevitably involve a lot of interests. If they want to continue to cooperate, just negotiating is enough to make people speechless.

As the person in charge of the factory, Mikhail naturally thought more, and now he sighed: "I heard that the heavy aircraft cruiser Ulyanovsk has been dismantled at the Black Sea Shipyard. Come out of the shipyard to build ocean-going ships for the Norwegian company. That powerful warship is already turning into scrap iron."

Ulyanovsk?

Qin Tao felt pleasantly surprised. It seemed that he had to travel a few more places on this trip.

This old Maozi's nuclear-powered aircraft carrier has also experienced ups and downs. It could have become the most powerful aircraft carrier in the Red Empire, but it died before it was launched. Under the cooperation of the company, it was dismantled on the berth, and the last penny was not earned.

This is the pain of transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. The old men have no experience in signing contracts with foreign customers, and they don't even have liquidated damages.

Even if Qin Tao wants to take the empty shell of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier back to China, he has no such opportunity. After all, the West regards that aircraft carrier as a thorn in their side, so why would they watch Qin Tao give it to him? Drag it back.

Now, the aircraft carrier has been dismantled into scrap iron. Qin Tao, an international tycoon, can buy some scrap steel. The price of [-] US dollars per ton offered by the Yankees is too high. , Fifty dollars per ton is quite a lot.

How many tons is that thing?It seems to be close to 150 tons of steel, right? For [-] million US dollars, collecting a pile of scrap iron is already giving Ermao a lot of face.

Qin Tao has already started to think about the next itinerary.

"President Qin, President Qin!" Elder Wang pushed Qin Tao.

Only then did Qin Tao realize that his thoughts had already flown into the sky!

"Qin, Uncle Mikhail invited us to see the completed Il-76 and Il-78." Alexander said beside him.

"Okay, let's go, let's go and see together!"

Originally, when Qin Tao made this request, he was slapped by Mikhail. Now, Mikhail took the initiative to invite them to come over, obviously he has made up his mind!

It seems that what he just said was going to the toilet, but he actually ran back to look at the contents of the suitcase, hehehe, if the third brother was in front of him at this time, he would probably be beaten up by him with his fists, right?

Thinking of this, Qin Tao is very proud. This matter was done beautifully.

The finished aircraft, of course, were pushed out of the workshop directly to make room for them. Those aircraft were parked on the open air apron, and the side of the aircraft could even be seen from a distance. sign.

It's a pity that that powerful country has disappeared, and now things are changing, which makes people feel emotional.

"Currently, we have a total of six Il-78 air tankers and four Il-76 transport aircraft." Mikhail said: "These aircraft have been assembled recently, but their original owners It's gone, so we have the authority to dispose of these planes in our factory."

Qin Tao nodded: "Mr. Mikhail, can you accompany us in to have a look?"

"of course can."

Mikhail just thought that Qin Tao wanted to go inside the plane, so he didn't think too much. He led Qin Tao, opened the tail hatch of a transport plane, and went straight up.

However, just after he walked in with Qin Tao, Qin Tao whispered to him.

"Mr. Mikhail, we will give you a bottom line. We want all these planes. Our base price is 500 million US dollars each. If you can help us lower the price, then the reduced amount will be Yours." Qin Tao said: "For example, if you can sign a contract with us for 1000 million US dollars, then there will be 5000 million more in your account!"

How much did Ah San give Mikhail?
$20!At most, he promised 20 later, but Mikhail could only earn 40!

now what?Qin Tao can give Mikhail a hundred times the rebate!

When Qin Tao said the price of 500 million US dollars each, Mikhail wanted to shake his head subconsciously, this is impossible!These are strategic transport aircraft!A medium-sized transport aircraft C-130 in the West can be sold for 4000 million U.S. dollars. This strategic level can be sold for hundreds of millions, and your own can be sold for 500 million?

Mikhail originally wanted to refuse, he felt insulted, but after hearing the words behind, his heart began to tremble.

As long as the price can be lowered, the money saved will belong to Mikhail!
If each can save 500 million, then ten can save 5000 million, and all the money will go into Mikhail's account!

5000 million, if there is such a sum of money, he can go to the West to live the life he wants after the transaction is completed. Who else will hold him accountable?

Insult me, insult me ​​with money!At this moment, deep in Mikhail's heart, the greedy devil was making this call.This is a one-shot deal, as long as it is completed, he will have everything for the rest of his life.

Mikhail swallowed and spit: "But, you also know, these planes are not up to me, 1000 million dollars a plane is too cheap, even if I agree, the government will not agree .”

The ideal is beautiful, but it depends on the reality!

In reality, their Chkalov Aircraft Factory is the economic support of the Platinum Country. The money from the sale of these ten manufactured aircraft is an important income for the treasury. If they want to sell it at a low price, the relevant government departments will not agree. yes!

"Mr. Mikhail, I will also give you 100 million US dollars in activity funds, and you use these funds to lobby relevant government leaders." Qin Tao has long known the difficulties Mikhail is facing, so he also gave him thoughts Good way.

"As for these planes, you can make some moves. For example, the apron caught fire and these planes were burned. For example, the parts provided by some big hairs on the planes were substandard. These planes have become waste products. For example, suddenly There was a lightning strike, these planes were struck by lightning, all the circuits on the planes needed to be replaced, etc. In short, these planes are no longer finished planes, they are just scraps.”

Mikhail's eyes slowly brightened.

If he is given 200 million US dollars to lobby, he believes that he can persuade those government leaders, and in addition, there is a problem with the plane here, so that his problem will be completely solved.

There is already a road, how to choose?

"Mr. Mikhail, the Red Empire is gone. Although there is an organization called the Commonwealth of Independent States, it is too loose." Qin Tao said: "In the future, the life of small countries will not be easy, so let's take your aircraft factory. Say, you need a large number of parts provided by Da Mao to assemble the aircraft. Do you think Da Mao is willing to provide the parts to you? Or open a new production line in their own aircraft factory to assemble Il- What about 76?"

Mikhail has thought about these things, and now that Qin Tao has pointed it out, he also knows what the ending will be.

Why does Da Mao want to benefit them?Wouldn't it be better for Da Mao to take it all by himself?

"So, don't look at the current Chkalov Aircraft Factory is still thriving. When the parts in stock are used up, it will soon fall into crisis, and the final fate is bankruptcy. Therefore, you should seize the opportunity now. , Pave a way for yourself." Qin Tao continued to fool around.

From Mikhail's eyes, Qin Tao saw greed.

"The 200 million activity funds we gave you were transferred through the Moscow International Commercial Bank. Alexander can guarantee the authenticity of those dollars. As for the subsequent kickbacks, we will directly deposit them into the Swiss bank account." Qin Tao said: "Please Don't worry, as long as the contract is signed and before the plane flies away, we will pay for it."

Mikhail swallowed again, and then said, "I will do my best."

After getting off the plane, Mikhail looked at the sky, the bright sun was shining on him, the rainy weather had passed, and from now on, his every day would be full of sunshine!
on the way back.

Elder Wang cautiously asked Qin Tao: "Boss Qin, are we all done?"

"Well, it's all settled. The ten planes are all ours. The signing of the contract is estimated to take about a week. We'll just wait here." Qin Tao said.

It's all done!

Mr. Qin entered the plane, talked with Mikhail for a few words, and it was settled?Mr. Qin is too awesome, isn't he?Ten planes!

"These ten planes are expensive, right?" Elder Wang asked.

"Yeah, 500 million is expensive enough. If we buy back the ten and add the activity expenses paid, the liquidity in our group's account will bottom out." Qin Tao said. .

What?500 million one?This is the price of cabbage, okay?Elder Wang was shocked again.

Alexander was very calm, because he had seen Qin Tao's ability a long time ago. Now, he said lightly, "The 20 yuan is yours."

"No, no, that's not acceptable." Qin Tao said: "You and Dalia did it, and it has nothing to do with me. You don't get paid for nothing, and those are all yours."

"But you planned it for us, how about it, we are half of us, if you don't want it, then you look down on us."

"Ok."

Qin Tao readily accepted.

Very happy to be back at Rajna and Abhinandan at the hotel.

"We have already negotiated the terms. This transaction will definitely go smoothly." Rajna is very satisfied: "The Red Empire has disappeared, these people will only stuff benefits into their pockets, as long as they are fed , they will definitely agree to our request, even if they sell their country, there is no problem."

"Yes, Mikhail was bought with only 20 yuan." Abhinandan was also very happy: "This time our activity fund is 100 million yuan, so the rest..."

When they go out to do purchases, they have to get something out of their own pockets. Even if they need to bribe the other party, they have to keep some for themselves. For Ah San, this is already a habit.

"I'll give you ten thousand dollars, and when you get back, don't talk nonsense," Rajna said.

Only ten thousand?
Abhinandan was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything. After all, Rajna was his boss, and if Rajna hadn't brought him out this time, he wouldn't have had this opportunity.

"Okay, next, let's go out and have fun, the women here are so beautiful!"

When Rajna said this, Abhinandan became excited again. Although he could only get $[-], it was not bad to play with a few beautiful women here.

When the two came out, they met several people head-on.

"Why does it look familiar?" Rajna couldn't help being suspicious, as if he had seen it somewhere?
However, the figure flashed by, and he didn't continue to think about it. Anyway, his task has been completed, and the next step is to enjoy it happily, there is no need to make trouble for himself.

That night.

Click, click!
Several thunderstorms fell from the sky, illuminating the night sky of the city. After the thunderstorms, a heavy rain fell.

In the history of Tashkent, this kind of heavy rain is quite rare. It seems that this year's climate is really special.

The next day, a few people went to the restaurant for dinner, and the morning news was playing on the TV in the restaurant.

Qin Tao glanced unconsciously, and felt that the flashing pictures on the TV were very familiar, so he couldn't help asking: "Daria, what is the news about?"

Daria is an all-rounder. In addition to serving as Alexander's secretary and dealing with various life and work matters, she is also a temporary translator for several of them.

Hearing Qin Tao's question, Dalia immediately replied: "What I was reporting just now was yesterday's thunderstorm. Several thunderstorms hit the tarmac of the Chkalov Aircraft Factory. The planes parked there, Severe damage occurred due to lack of lightning protection measures."

When he heard the news, Qin Tao couldn't help laughing, it really went well, it's God's grace, and he was thundered just right!
In fact, when any aircraft is designed, lightning protection needs to be considered. However, even so, it is occasionally seen that an aircraft is struck by lightning when passing through a thunderstorm area, and then there is news of an accident. For aircraft lightning protection, this is a difficult problem.

Even an advanced fighter like the F-35 has mine protection flaws.

Now, if an aircraft that has not yet left the factory is struck by lightning, the aircraft will have hidden dangers, just like a soaking car, no one knows when and where problems will occur.

"Thunder God and Lightning Mother are really awesome." Qin Tao said: "Now, we don't have any problems with our purchases."

While several people were talking, in the hotel room, Rajna was sleeping soundly with her arms around a woman who was called back last night.After a night of tossing, he was very satisfied, but also very tired.

(Platinum Kingdom, just after the separation, was quite open, and it gradually became conservative later.)
On the bed next to him, Abhinandan was still venting wantonly, and the sound waves sounded from time to time, and Abhinandan turned up the volume of the TV again.

Wait, what's on the TV?
Abhinandan could speak the language here, that's why he was brought by Rajna to stand up together. At this moment, Abhinandan stopped moving and his face became more and more ugly.

The woman let out a long breath. This guy who had been smeared with Asan's oil had tormented her for a whole night, and now he finally softened.

"Rajna, Lord Rajna, hurry up, wake up, something has happened!"

An hour later, a Lada sedan roared towards the Chkalov aircraft factory. Rajna and Abhinandan desperately wanted to see Mikhail, but were turned away. It's time to report the situation to the superior!

How's the plane, how's the plane?

airplane?It is said that those on the tarmac were struck by lightning, and the damage to the electronic equipment inside is unknown.

What?
The two were dumbfounded.

20 million hit the water?
The plane is broken, what else do they buy?However, it is impossible to get back the 20 that was given to Mikhail.

The two guys were dumbfounded.

three days later.

"Our Mingzhou Group is a large group that involves a wide variety of industries. Our transportation company is already a leader in domestic transportation. This time, we will purchase ten of your damaged planes, and after we return, we will repair one Then put it into commercial operation." Qin Tao looked at the government representative opposite, with regret on his face: "Although the price is cheap, but we have to repair it when we go back, we don't know if we will lose money this time."

"Mr. Qin, please rest assured that these aircraft are worth maintaining, but we don't have enough spare parts here. If you need them, you can use a full set of western avionics to improve them at any time." The government representative patted his chest and promised: " You're bound to make money."

"Well, I hope." Qin Tao said: "I also have to thank your brave test pilots for being willing to fly these aircraft with damaged avionics to our domestic airport."

No matter how skilled the pilot is, it is impossible to fly all kinds of aircraft. Each aircraft has different performance characteristics, and it is necessary to go through the necessary modification training before flying the corresponding model.

Now, Platinum Country can't wait to package and sell the plane to Qin Tao, and even deliver it to his door, which moved Qin Tao very much. When the plane returns to China, it has nothing to do with this place. How to modify it is his own business. up.

"This is what it should be. Our Il-76 adopts a mature and reliable hydraulic operation method. Even if it is struck by lightning, it will not be a problem to fly during the day. As long as it arrives in your airspace, there will be an aircraft to lead the flight."

"Of course, we have made all the preparations."

The agreement was signed, the two sides shook hands and took a group photo. In the afternoon of that day, ten Il-76s and Il-78s took off from the runway of the Chkalov Aircraft Factory.

Watching these planes take off, Mr. Wang was extremely excited. With these planes, there will be a suitable platform for domestic early warning aircraft!

"Unfortunately, we have no way to get back the dedicated A-50 early warning aircraft platform." After leaving the aircraft factory, Wang Lao said with emotion.

"What's the difficulty? When the factory goes bankrupt in the future, we have plenty of opportunities. However, by that time, we probably already have advanced large aircraft in our country, and we don't need to buy these junk products. If there are stocks here engine, we can purchase a batch of spares.”

That night, at an airport in China.

"Old Lin, let's talk about it first. You can have transport planes, but the aerial refueling planes belong to our navy!" Standing on the tarmac of the airport, looking at the sky in the distance, Wu Shengli said cheerfully.

"Six air refueling aircraft, you don't need that many, two is good, our air force, we also need to practice air refueling technology!" Lin Lao said: "We also need to build an air force with both offensive and defensive capabilities. .”

"Come on, you have a Su-27 with a range of two to three thousand kilometers, and you need to refuel in the air? Where are you going? Are you flying over the Pacific Ocean?"

"It will happen one day. Anyway, the funds your navy has applied for are limited, so we will purchase according to our respective funds."

"Hmph, these planes were obtained by my son-in-law. Even if you are rich, if you don't give them to you, you won't give them to you!" Wu Shengli was very stubborn.
