Chapter 883 Discuss with McDonnell Douglas about the F_15 Eagle fighter

Although Jiang Chen felt somewhat uncomfortable, he still had to face McDonnell Douglas in the end.It can be said that this company has forged countless grievances and grievances with our country's aviation industry. To a certain extent, it has hit the development of our country's aviation industry, but to a certain extent it has also helped us a lot.So after thinking for a long time, Jiang Chen decided to meet each other and face it calmly. This is a commercial transaction, and personal emotions cannot be mixed into it.

The person who came into contact with Jiang Chen was Anthony, who is in charge of developing our country’s aviation business at McDonnell Douglas. Maybe you can’t remember the name at this time, but you can look back at the time, when you shipped_10, you mentioned this. people.However, Jiang Chen didn't know about this. He only learned from the relevant information and intelligence that this person is a master of our country, and even speaks Chinese.For a long time, he has been responsible for the trade of McDonnell Douglas in our country and the entire Asia-Pacific region, and is also the senior management of McDonnell Douglas, the executive director of the board of directors, etc.

After seeing Jiang Chen and the others, this Anthony smiled at Jiang Chen and the others in rather blunt Chinese: "Hello, Jiang, I am very glad to meet you."

Jiang Chen shook Anthony's hand with a smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Anthony, I'm also very happy to meet you. I didn't expect you to speak Chinese so well."

Haha, Anthony said proudly: "As your old saying goes, my little knowledge is nothing more than a drop in the bucket compared to the huge knowledge and culture of Chinese. You are too proud."

Oh, Jiang Chen made a surprised expression and said: "Mr. Anthony, I didn't expect you to use idioms. It's really amazing. You make me, a native Chinese speaker, feel ashamed."

Seeing that Jiang Chen used an idiom, Anthony showed a puzzled expression, but then smiled and said: "Haha, Jiang, you are too polite, I am just a superficial thing. Come, let me introduce our personnel to you." ,,,,,,"

After the introduction, the two sides sat down. After the waiter brought coffee and tea, Jiang Chen and the others immediately started the topic.I saw that Anthony first said to Jiang Chen and the others: "First of all, Jiang, and everyone here, I am very happy to meet you. You know that we have been looking forward to seeing you for a long time. I hope that both of us can make it together. It is beneficial to the contract that both of us need. Of course, we will also produce what you need most. Another point, we learned that someone from Northrop recommended the F_18 Hornet fighter to you. Here we want I would like to make a statement to you. We own all the technology and property rights of the F_18 Hornet fighter jet, as well as the improved models of this model in the future. Northrop has already reached an agreement with our company on this matter Agreement, all people from Northrop will sell the F_18 Hornet fighter to you. This is impossible, or it is fake. Of course, one possibility is not ruled out, that is, they will use your information to compare The shortcomings of our plug recommend to you the so-called 'F_18 Hornet fighter jet', but in fact it is not at all, but a new model they re-opened to pretend to be the F_18 'Hornet' fighter jet to export to you. And as it is about to become yours We, as partners, feel a duty to inform our clients so they don’t suffer losses.”

After listening, Jiang Chen nodded at Anthony and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness. We just got the information in this regard, so we immediately terminated the contact and cooperation. Then, Mr. Anthony, I don't know the intention of your visit this time. What, are you recommending the F_18 Hornet to us?"

"No, Jiang, our company's strength is comparable to that of other companies." Anthony shook his head and said proudly: "We recommend two of our fighter jets for you this time, one is the F_18' Hornet you just mentioned "Fighter, and the other one is the main model we highly recommend for you, we call it the F_15 Eagle fighter. Jiang, you know, you are really very lucky, because this fighter has just been approved by our Congress Lifting the ban, if you buy it, then it will be the fifth country in the world that owns this fighter, and the first four are us, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Japan."

"Oh, is that right? I don't know which model of these two fighters you are going to recommend to us. Is it castrated or an outdated product?" Jiang Chen knocked on the table and looked at Anthony and asked.

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, coupled with his gaze, made Anthony's old face blush.This matter is already a potential fact in the arms market all over the world. It is enough for everyone to know it in their hearts, and there is no need to say it out.However, the expression on his face changed quickly, and he quickly shook his head and said: "No, Jiang, you are our partners, potential allies, and the front line against the evil Soviet Union, so we will definitely be sincere I will help you. The equipment provided to you this time will definitely not be castrated, let alone eliminated models. Even the models we recommend and sell to you are better than the fighters we currently produce for our own country in terms of performance. Advanced. This time we recommend the F_18A/B model fighter and the F_15A/B model fighter. These two fighters are our most mature models. The A model is a single-seater fighter, while the B model is a two-seater Trainer aircraft, of course, the B-type aircraft has the combat capability of the A-type aircraft. At present, hundreds of them have been equipped for our national army, and the other air force equipped with some allies has received very good evaluation. Of course , if you need, we can also install your requirements in these two models for upgrades, as long as they are compatible with our fighter system and approved for export technology and products. Of course, this also needs to be in the price The above will continue to adjust and recalculate the unit price based on the prices of these products and the cost of modification.”

"Oh, so, what you are going to recommend to us is the A/B model fighter that you developed and produced in the early stage and has been eliminated by your army, instead of the C/D model fighter that you have already put into production and service?" Jiang Jiang Chen asked unmoved.

Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't show any expression, Anthony was a little disappointed and said: "No, Jiang, you know that our F_18C fighter jet has just been put into trial installation, and the D model fighter is still in the process of being developed and upgraded, so it is impossible to export it to you. .Even if our company is willing, the Science, Technology and National Security Council will not pass it, not to mention Congress will not agree to export."

"Then what about the F_15 C/D model fighter? I got the news that you have sold this fighter to Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Japan for equipment. Could it be that your closest friends need the most advanced fighters to deal with it? We are threatened, but we can't get it?" Jiang Chen was a little angry at Anthony.
