Chapter 340 Win-win, who loses?
As long as there are enough interests, Americans can work very efficiently.
Anyway, now that the polar bear is exerting pressure, it is not that difficult for the relevant departments to make this cooperation process stand up to scrutiny.
And purchasing 10 million US dollars from China and selling it to relevant departments for tens of millions of dollars, this matter is actually an opportunity for many people to eat and drink, and some people are naturally very motivated. .
Soon, China received feedback from the United States.
A formal negotiation team has also been formed, and both parties hope to agree on this plan in the shortest possible time.
After all, as long as the contract is signed, it is definitely a win-win situation.
China has obtained a complete set of technical information on the Black Hawk helicopter, which can greatly improve the level of its aviation industry.
And by exporting a batch of launch vehicles from the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory, additional foreign exchange earnings can be obtained.
The US dollars spent to sign the purchase of Black Hawk helicopters this month can be earned back.
The money saved can be used to purchase other more useful equipment and products.
"Xiaojiang, the United States has officially played its cards. They agree in principle to this technology replacement, but they have different opinions on some conditions."
Because it involves very important negotiation items , Zhu Jiansheng asked Jiang Hui to temporarily work in the capital for a period of time.
Anyway, many projects at BMW are already on track, and Jiang Hui can conduct remote control in a short period of time.
Besides, BMW Technology still has investments in the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory, and Jiang Hui naturally wants to confirm the progress of some related projects.
"That's when everyone starts bargaining."
"It's just about the sales price and number of missile launch vehicles, as well as the cost of technology transfer, right?"
Jiang Hui combined his feelings for the Americans Understood and gave a quick judgment.
"It is true. Our quotation for the missile launch vehicle was US$20 million per vehicle, but the other party said it could only accept US$10 million."
"This is how many times the relevant departments have communicated with them. Message after ”
"Even at this price, the other party hopes to only purchase 20 units, not 50 units."
"As for the cost of technology transfer, the other party believes that the value of the entire Black Hawk helicopter technology is higher than that of the launch vehicle. So the hedging of the two technical data is enough This is the maximum concession, and further supply of production lines is unacceptable unless we spend money to purchase it.”
The current plan is better than the bottom-line plan in Zhu Jiansheng’s heart, so he is in a good mood. It's quite stable.
"How much does the United States want to sell those production equipment?"
As long as the price is right, it is completely worthwhile to directly purchase the Black Hawk helicopter production line.
There must be some relatively high-end machine tool products, which are normally difficult to buy in the market.
Especially after the international environment changes in the future, it will be even more difficult to buy advanced equipment from the international market.
“The other party directly offered a sky-high price of US$1 billion. Even if it is a negotiation, I think the possibility of less than US$500 million is very low.”
“The purchase of 24 aircraft was previously discussed. The price of the Black Hawk helicopter is only US$150 million. It should be difficult for the relevant departments to agree to spend such a high price to purchase the helicopter. "Especially when the other party is willing to exchange the technical data of the Black Hawk helicopter for the technology of the intercontinental ballistic missile launch vehicle, some leaders think that we can use the existing production equipment to try it first. We process parts for Black Hawk helicopters and only import the parts that are not satisfactory.”
The matter of production line procurement actually has little to do with Zhu Jiansheng.
After all, after the Black Hawk helicopter production line is restored, it will definitely not be placed at the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory, but will be chosen by several domestic helicopter companies.
Helicopter manufacturers such as Hongdu Machinery Factory have the ability to produce some helicopter parts. It is most appropriate for them to absorb the technology of Black Hawk helicopters.
Zhu Jiansheng can also understand this.
But if other plans cannot be finalized because of these clauses, it will be very uncomfortable.
"Judging from the historical opportunities for development, it is worthwhile to spend more money now."
"But domestic foreign exchange is indeed very tight, and relevant departments are unwilling to spend such a high price to purchase production lines. I can understand it too.”
The gap in domestic military equipment is not limited to helicopters.
This requires an improvement in the entire industrial level to achieve explosive growth.
The improvement of industrial level requires a relatively large improvement in the entire economic level.
At this stage, using limited funds to develop the entire economy is indeed more valuable than developing a single product.
This view is still very popular.
“Yes, now it depends on how the negotiating team discusses with the American side, and also depends on the superior leaders’ thoughts.”
“No matter what the final discussion looks like, As long as both parties can reach a consensus, I can accept it.”
Zhu Jiansheng is very satisfied that the situation of the Ligong Special Vehicle Factory can be further revitalized through exports.
As for the impact of technology leaks, after thinking about it thoroughly, I am not so entangled anymore.
To maintain deterrence, the most critical thing is to further improve the level of various types of missiles.
Selling missile launch vehicle technology in exchange for more funds and technology to develop advanced missiles seems to be a more effective way to maintain China's strategic deterrence.
……
Negotiations on important arms sales often last a long time.
It is normal for some projects to be discussed for several years.
Of course, some are very fast, and everything is settled within a month.
Whether it is the United States or China, they all hope that the trade related to Black Hawk helicopters and intercontinental ballistic missile launch vehicles will be implemented as soon as possible.
Especially in the United States, these trades directly involve the interests of a series of people, and they hope to finalize them quickly.
July has just passed, and after both parties made concessions, this valuable contract has been officially finalized.
According to the contract, the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory will sell 30 missile launch vehicles to the United States at a price of US$10 million each, while Sikorsky will continue to sell 24 Black Hawk helicopters at the previously agreed price of US$150 million.
At the same time, China transferred the complete technology of the missile launch vehicle to the United States.
The United States will transfer a complete set of technical data on the civilian version of the Black Hawk helicopter to China, but requires that it be limited to China's own use and is not allowed to be transferred. In the future, similar products will not be sold to third parties.
On the books, it is an exchange of technical data, and no one needs to pay technology transfer fees to the other party.
But within the United States and China, they have their own solutions.
The United Defense Company of America will definitely need to spend a sum of money to give Sikorsky, which is considered as the price for them to obtain the technology of the intercontinental ballistic missile launch vehicle.
After all, this technology was exchanged for Sikorsky’s Black Hawk helicopter technology.
"Smith, you can arrange for someone to do a special investigation to see if there are any other technologies in China that are relatively useful." "At that time, we will see if we can also organize domestic manufacturers. Come and exchange technical data or purchase with China.”
Woodcock got a taste of the benefits from this transaction.
Therefore, even if China's overall technical level is far behind that of the United States, and it is difficult to find advantageous projects like intercontinental ballistic missile launch vehicles, he does not want to give up completely.
What if we find it?
That is another win-win solution.
“Well, I will pay more attention to the situation of the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory and some other factories.”
“The Humvee military vehicles and missile launch vehicle technologies that have emerged in China in recent years are all It’s very original and brings a big surprise to everyone.”
"I have a hunch that there will be some new technologies from the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory or the Capital Institute of Technology that are worthy of our attention in the future."
There are many things that Smith cannot intervene in this transaction. got started, but Woodcock also shared part of the benefits with him afterwards.
Smith is not stupid, so he can naturally guess something.
But for this kind of thing, hello, me, hello, everyone, he will definitely not talk nonsense.
“This factory is indeed quite evil. It is actually able to come up with such innovative new products in a place like China.”
"I think the plan to bring China together to deal with polar bears is very correct."
"The role they can play will be greater than many people in the country imagine. We must find ways to increase domestic efforts." The greater the cooperation with China.”
The greater the cooperation between China and the United States, the greater the significance of the existence of Ambassador Woodcock.
So both publicly and privately, he hopes that the cooperative relationship between the two parties can be strengthened.
“Well, but I think we can also give some serious consideration to civilian products?
"Many products in China have very low production costs and very attractive selling prices. If they are exported to our country, it can effectively suppress the rise in the prices of some commodities, which should also be beneficial to improving the domestic situation."< br>
“At the same time, the technical level of many civilian products in China is also relatively high. Lower. If our companies invest in and build factories in China, there should still be a market for those products.”
“After all, although China is relatively poor, its population base is there, and its overall consumption power is still there. ”
When Smith said this, Woodcock nodded immediately.
“This direction is indeed worthy of our increased efforts.”
"The monthly salary of a worker in China is only a few dozen yuan, which is only about thirty US dollars when converted into U.S. dollars according to the official exchange rate."
"This salary is not enough to pay domestic workers for a day."
“All labor-intensive industries are suitable for Let the Chinese people do it, and we can just import it and use it directly."
"This will also make China's economy more dependent on us, which will help us further increase our influence on China in the future."< br>
The United States’ ambition to control the world has never disappeared.
Although China has not dealt with the United States in the past few decades, now that the situation has begun to change, Woodcock also hopes that the United States' influence on China can be greatly improved.
Especially after China’s influence in assisting in suppressing polar bears has grown, America’s need in this regard has become even stronger.
As the cooperation between the two parties becomes closer, the value of Woodcock's existence will also increase.
The benefits behind it will naturally be greater.
Huaxia definitely supports his ideas.
After all, these plans are beneficial to both parties as a whole.
Of course, these are all things for later.
......
"Jiang Hui, dad seems to have been promoted."
Jiang Hui, who has returned to BMW from the capital to continue his busy work, came home today He heard Zhu Lin tell him good news.
Zhu Jiansheng's tenure as vice president of Capital Institute of Technology was not particularly long. Jiang Hui originally thought that he would not be promoted to president until next year at the earliest.
I didn’t expect that there would be movement now.
However, considering the news at the Ligong Special Vehicle Factory during this period, this news seems to be somewhat reasonable.
There are so many universities in China that can make such a big noise in school-run enterprises, produce strategic products such as intercontinental ballistic missile launch vehicles, and attract schools from the United States that spend huge sums of money to purchase them. , that is really the only one, there is no other semicolon.
With this merit alone, no one can question Zhu Jiansheng’s position as principal.
In particular, there was already a hot-selling military vehicle like the Hummer, which established Zhu Jiansheng's special status in the Chinese automobile industry.
Especially in the field of military vehicles, Zhu Jiansheng dares to say that he is second, and absolutely no one dares to say that he is first.
Well, except Jiang Hui.
“That’s a good thing. After my father becomes the president of Capital Institute of Technology, he can better coordinate the resources of the entire school and develop according to the previous plan.”
“In time, Capital Institute of Technology will become one of the top universities in the country.”
Every graduate hopes that his or her alma mater will become stronger after graduation, which is beneficial to all alumni.
Jiang Hui is naturally no exception.
“Yes, dad has focused all his energy on work in the past few years, which can be regarded as reward for his efforts.”
“What you mentioned before about the academic committee members, I I feel like the decision will be made almost next year.”
Zhu Lin must be very concerned about his father’s future development.
Especially since she is now nominally the general manager of BMW Technology, which now has a large amount of investment in China.
If there is no strong person to protect it, the development of BMW Technology in China will definitely encounter some troubles.
Although as a foreign investor, sometimes it can block a lot of things.
But when your plate reaches a certain level, the situation becomes complicated.
Not to mention other things, once your development affects the interests of others, someone will definitely do something dirty to you.
Stealing official seals is too low-level. They will directly arrange for people to check your fire protection, tax, etc., which will definitely make you peel off a layer of skin.
“I will discuss it with my father later, and the operation of the academic committee members must be accelerated.”
“In the industry, he is also widely expected.”
