Chapter 250 Not possible in principle
"Mr. Chen?"
"Yes, Mr. Chen Chen." Salaman glanced at the other party's delegation. "By the way, why is Mr. Chen not here today?"
Mr. Shang smiled helplessly: "He is busy with other things."
Gold cups and silver cups are not as good as the customer's cups. .
Other aviation industry representatives present were a little embarrassed.
They have been in this industry for a long time, especially those in the front row, who are all big foreign trade players.
With all the experience accumulated over the years, I still can’t beat the newcomer Chen Chen.
The people over there calmly came up with a double-tailed scorpion for foreign trade, which was very convenient.
It is a game changer in the industry, with high quality and low price.
The most important thing is that Chen Chen's service attitude is very good.
Whatever the customers want, he builds it and satisfies the customer's requirements in every detail.
Salaman has never eaten any refined grains.
When I saw Chendun’s products and service level, I was immediately impressed.
"Mr. Chen is our old friend. If there is a demand for drones, I hope he can be in the negotiating team." Salaman changed the subject. "But this time we don't need drones."
Salaman's remarks made the atmosphere in the venue generally cool.
Because the lineup prepared here are all the backbones of the aviation industry.
Mr. Shang’s calculations are also very precise.
A lot of drones have been installed in China recently, almost a whole generation of drones have been updated.
This way.
Some advanced equipment is at a backward level.
The terrible thing is.
They were very bold when planning the production capacity of these products.
After all, no one could have imagined at the time that domestic drones would make leaps and bounds since Chendun entered the game.
So this time Mr. Shang mainly wants to sell drones.
In this way, the two sides are at a point of disagreement.
Mr. Shang still wants to work harder: "Taking into account the intensification of the situation around your country, coupled with the basic characteristics of modern warfare."
"I personally think that drones are the only way to deal with it. The best choice for the current security situation."
"In layman's terms, when your enemy has large-scale swarms of drones, you'd better have them too."
Sa. Raman has his own ideas: "I can't deny this. But our current focus is on air defense equipment."
Boss Shang was keenly aware that Salaman seemed to have a target: "Are you talking about regional prevention and control?"
"Yes, we hope to introduce some regional air defense systems."
It is true that Salaman is rich, but he is not stupid.
When the surrounding Tiger Wolf drone technology was upgraded, he did not lose his strategic judgment.
The enemy drones are strengthened.
Especially when folks have big suicide drones.
The air defense system is particularly important.
Due to the special environment of one's own country, offensive weapons are far less important than defensive weapons.
Regional prevention and control happens to be Salaman's weak point.
Originally Salaman’s first choice was not here, but the other two.
What a pity.
When Salaman was preparing for the layout, it happened that other countries were testing Maozi's S400 live ammunition test, and the hit rate was very touching.
So this option was killed.
The Yingjiang regional prevention and control system is expensive, and they may not agree to sell it.
So Salaman wanted to try his luck here.
"If possible, I hope we can import some FD2000 systems."
Mr. Shang has already guessed some clues, and thought about it in advance, and replied with ease: "Sir, red wine is our main force remotely. Air-to-air missiles are of great strategic significance.”
“I know, so we want to be the first Middle Eastern country to equip this system.”
Salaman’s eyes were full of desire. .
Judging from the limited information disclosed, compared with the air defense systems of the other two countries, the performance of the FD2000 is average.
Because of its excellent performance, foreign trade funds are very small.
Rabbit has only sold a few sets sporadically to a few close friends.
Not at all in the Bay Area.
He can also understand what Mr. Shang means.
The FD2000 system, with the red wine surface-to-air missile as its soul, is still the advanced equipment of Rabbit.
Because of its status, the production capacity of this equipment cannot support foreign trade.
Salaman has already analyzed these two reasons for ignoring.
So he decided to impress Mr. Shang with his sincerity: "If you agree to sell the FD2000 system, our price requirements will be very relaxed."
Mr. Shang chewed his teeth. He knows that big business owners don't understand technology, but they respect technology, and there is definitely nothing to say about money.
But the sale of air defense systems is really not within the scope of this negotiation.
Even before this, we had no expectation of this.
No matter how tempted he was, Mr. Shang could only grit his teeth and refuse.
“In principle, the FD2000 system currently does not have a foreign trade option.” Mr. Shang did not say it to death. "Let's do this. We'll discuss it here after we get down, and then we'll give you a clear answer."
Although Salaman has superpowers, there are things he can't do, so he has some hope.
However, frequent dealings with rabbits in recent years also made him understand the subtext of the words "in principle".
Explain whether this is 100% impossible.
He was willing to give Shang Wu some time: "Well, I look forward to good news from you, Minister."
The seller's key needs could not be met.
The buyer’s excess capacity cannot be consumed. This means that there is almost no substantive progress in this negotiation.
Subsequent discussions were limited to the closing of previous institutions and projects, as well as future strategic prospects.
There are very few actual contracts finalized by both parties.
So when the meeting ended and Salaman left the conference room, the members of Shangwu's delegation seemed a little disappointed.
Especially those representatives of the aviation industry.
They originally expected to cheat big money here, and the sacks containing money were all ready when they came.
As a result, my pants were all taken off. If you look at this, you can imagine the difference.
"Boss, when I came here, I signed a military order with our boss. This plane was not sold, so I can't explain it."
Shang Wu bit his lip: " You haven't gone far yet, so go ahead and ask for it."
"No, this isn't like the behavior of big dogs."
"Big dogs are rich, but they are not rich either. Silly, especially this Salaman, he is so smart.”
No one denies this.
People are rich, but they are still rich in a rational state.
It’s not like you’re just stupid enough to say that Mr. Sa will pay for all the expenses when you get to a place.
Especially their understanding of air defense needs, money is spent wisely.
Mr. Shang suddenly raised his head and asked for advice: "Everyone happens to be here. Let's work overtime. What do you think about the fact that they want FD2000?"
Those present are also industry related people, and they can provide some reference opinions.
A representative from the Science and Industry Group put away his disappointment and analyzed it with reason.
“They do understand the need for air defense systems.”
“But one or two missiles are enough.”
“A complete set of air defense systems, You have to think about it carefully.”
Another older representative also stood up.
“As the main regional air defense force of our army, red wine will cause many problems if it is rashly traded with foreign countries.”
“The first thing that comes to my mind is the leakage of combat effectiveness.”
“ You said it would be okay if it were deployed in neighboring peaceful countries."
"Salaman's hometown is surrounded by a mixed crowd, and seventeen or eight forces can be surrounded in a small area."
"When the main weapons arrive in a place like this, the risk is very high."
A representative later even found real-life examples to support the above point of view:
"Everyone remembers what happened in the Bekaa Valley. Right?”
“The Syr country spent ten years trying to get 29 missile batteries from Maozi.”
“What’s the result?”
"ISR dispatched several drones to deceive the radar, upload the electromagnetic spectrum to the early warning aircraft, and then the fighter jets finished."
"29 missile batteries, worth 2 billion US dollars, were scrapped within two hours."
“A lesson learned from the past is a teacher for future generations.”
People teach others, but they cannot teach.
Teaching things can be done once.
Everyone present was lost in thought.
Although times are advancing and technology is developing.
But the logic of air defense has not changed, and the regional pattern is also very different.
If the FD2000 system passes, it is inevitable that similar things will not happen again.
After all, the tactical literacy and confidentiality level of the big dog owners are still a little bit behind.
It doesn't matter if the air defense system is damaged.
The most important thing is that key data will be leaked, and this loss is unbearable.
Mr. Shang nodded, a little inclined to this position, but he still wanted to listen to more opinions and open up the world.
"Xiao Zheng, why don't you speak?"
Zheng Yucun put down the pen in his hand: "What you all said makes sense. In short, to sum up the current situation, FD2000 is too advanced and inconvenient Export.”
Everyone was about to nod.
Zheng Yucun suddenly changed the subject.
"But! What if we have better and more advanced prevention and control options?"
"If there are better options, of course I would prefer exporting. There is no need to struggle with money. "Shang Wu smiled bitterly. "The key is, don't we have no choice yet?"
Zheng Yucun wanted to say another sentence, but after thinking twice, he swallowed the second half of the sentence.
I see that everyone’s opinions are almost unanimous.
Mr. Shang began to make a decisive speech: "Now is no better than before."
"The big dog still hasn't seen a gun."
"But we have seen some money. "
"It's not the time to be poor anymore."
"Let's put this matter aside for now. According to what Xiao Zheng said, if there is a better choice, we can sell it to them."
Everyone nodded while underestimating it.
It’s easy to say that, but it’s so easy to have a choice.
This is on hold.
I don’t know when to leave it.
When everyone left the conference room with sighs, Shang Wu still didn't relax and called his secretary.
"Summarize the content of today's meeting and report it to the superiors. Truthfully state what they want for the air defense system, and send us the preliminary opinions we just mentioned."
"Understood!"
After saying that, Shang Wu looked a little embarrassed: "Before the meeting just now, what you said about the Yangcheng War Zone must be taken seriously."
"You said Scientific research activities? ”
"Yes! Go and find out, why is Lin Xiao making such a big fuss?"
