Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 896 You have to bear no matter how wronged you are, who told you not to do it?

Of course, as for the guarantor, Jiang Chen has already found it, which is the old American government.And through Jiang Chen's 'inadvertent' mention, it aroused the recognition and approval of Paul and his team.Both parties believe that if they can reach a contract, it is most suitable for Lao Mei to act as the guarantor. First of all, if the contract can be facilitated, although it is very beneficial to Jiang Chen and the others, it is also very beneficial to Lao Mei. of.With this batch of equipment, our country can help the old Americans to share more pressure in the Asia-Pacific region. This is great news for the old Americans who are currently struggling to maintain defense in the Asia-Pacific.In addition, if Laomei can choose Laomei for this order, it will bring huge income to Laomei, not only the income of their own domestic enterprises, but also in terms of government taxation.

Although there are risks, the risks are still negligible compared to the benefits obtained.Moreover, this mere tens of billions is definitely a drop in the bucket for the huge old American empire.So since you can get so many benefits, what does it matter if you pay a little risk?Now that the relationship between the two countries is stable, this risk can also be minimized.Even if a war breaks out in the future, who knows the outcome? If the world is destroyed, what is the use of asking for so much money? It's just a pile of waste paper.What's more, this is also a win-win project for both parties. It not only meets the defense needs of Jiang Chen and his country, but also meets the strategic needs of the United States. What's more, the old American General Motors and even the lending bank have obtained quite a lot of money. Benefit.From this point of view, it is absolutely feasible.

Of course, this is only a preliminary consensus reached by the two parties, or a memorandum of cooperation reached by the two parties, and it is not a real contract.The real contract requires Jiang Chen and the others to continue to contact, refine the content of the negotiation, finalize the details of the contract, and then both parties confirm and sign it. This is a truly effective contract.But now both parties do not have this authority, Jiang Chen and the others need to report the content and results of these negotiations, and then listen to the decision from above.The same is true for Paul and the others. They have to report the contents of their contact with Jiang Chen and the others to the company's board of directors. They will discuss and decide, and obtain authorization to contact and negotiate again.So the meeting between the two parties ended here, and there was no point in contacting them any further.

After returning to Bali, Jiang Chen and the others rushed to meet with other companies.Similar to Jiang Chen's estimation, Reid's Saab-35 'Dragon' fighter jet withdrew from the competition this time.Because when Jiang Chen and the others introduced several payment methods to them, Reid denied all of these plans.For them, this tens of billions of dollars is very important. Their country is not as rich and powerful as France and the United States. Neither their enterprises nor the government can bear such a big risk.As for their own country's banks, they don't have the strength to pay such a large amount of loans to Jiang Chen and the others.It is obviously unrealistic to borrow money from other countries' banks to buy their aircraft, and these banks and these countries will not be willing.

Of course, the F_18 Hornet fighter jet was entirely due to conflicting needs and potential troubles, so Jiang Chen and the others voluntarily gave up.Therefore, the four fighters from these two countries are currently available for Jiang Chen and the others to choose from. Negotiations with French officials and companies can be said to be very difficult.After hearing Jiang Chen and his team's specific payment plan, the other party strongly opposed it, and even thought that Jiang Chen and his team had no sincerity and wanted to terminate the negotiation.In the end, Jiang Chen analyzed the stakes for them, and then they also had a very long internal discussion, and finally gave Jiang Chen and the others the result that they could talk about.

It can be discussed, but the result of such a change in the payment method has directly led to disguised requirements from the French side in terms of other terms, and some content and terms have even reached the point of being too harsh.The content that had been agreed before was also changed because of the change of payment method, which made Director Yuan and the others very angry, and even Deputy Director Song, who was always gentle, scolded her mother directly.Not to mention Jiang Chen, facing the other party's changed arrogant attitude, Jiang Chen was furious.But he understood that they had to be patient, who made them weak at present.So they have to be patient, they have to bear the burden of humiliation, as long as they can win this contract, what does it matter if they suffer a little humiliation.Compared with the security of the entire country and nation, what is the gain or loss of an individual?

Of course, it doesn't mean that they have to choose French, and Jiang Chen's favorite aircraft is not their Mirage [-] fighter jet.But Jiang Chen and the others have to take France down, so that they can negotiate with the old American side with what they have in hand. Only when there is competition, can there be vitality.Otherwise, it will definitely be very uncomfortable to only guard one side, and the price will be very huge.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen and the others finally reached a preliminary cooperation letter of intent and a preliminary cooperation transaction framework with France after difficult negotiations.If Jiang Chen and the others continue to contact the French side, then within this framework, they can carry out relevant specific negotiations.Of course, the specific negotiations and related terms must be confirmed by the officials of the two countries, so this requires domestic authorization, and what Jiang Chen and the others have negotiated now is only the contract framework and letter of intent.

The next step is to negotiate with the official representative of Laomei and the other two companies. However, compared to France, it seems that Laomei is not too surprised by Jiang Chen's proposal of installment and loan.It seems that I have considered it long ago, and the answer I got from Lao Mei also confirmed this point.According to them, they are also constantly studying Jiang Chen and the others, as well as everything in the country.According to the current situation in the country, it is impossible to afford the procurement costs of the fighters of the three divisions.Then this means that either Jiang Chen and his team are liars, or the 'soldiers' of other countries have carried out a conspiracy against them.Fortunately, they confirmed this, Jiang Chen and the others are not liars.Either that, or Jiang Chen and the others wanted to borrow money from Lao Mei and the others to buy these fighter jets.Of course, this is very common internationally, and it is also very familiar to Lao Mei.And this is how the old United States revitalized its economy and developed through huge arms orders during World War I and World War II, and eventually developed.You must know that at that time, many countries borrowed a lot of money from Laomei to buy weapons and equipment, so from this point of view, Jiang Chen's request can also be accepted by Laomei.

But businessmen are businessmen in the end, and they all seek the greatest benefit.This is the case in France, and Laomei is no exception.For example, in the negotiations with Jiang Chen and the others, the old American side required Jiang Chen and the others to purchase their own weapons and equipment if they wanted to obtain a loan from their country for purchasing weapons and equipment.To put it bluntly, they agreed to guarantee and loan to Jiang Chen and the others only if all of these orders were purchased from Laomei.Moreover, the loan must also be used to purchase Laomei's equipment, and the funds are earmarked for special use.Although overbearing, this is the reality. No matter how much helplessness and grievances Jiang Chen and the others have, they have to bear it. Who told them not to do it.This made Jiang Chen, a self-proclaimed military worker, turn red like a fire.
