A doctor who travels through two eras
Chapter 743 Fighter jets are not sold to private individuals
Lin Sanqi admitted his mistake sincerely, and Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group naturally did not want to offend this God of Wealth, so Huang Jinpeng smiled and said:
"In fact, it is normal for Director Lin to be worried and disdainful. After all, there was a lot of controversy over whether to choose 'technology, industry and trade' or 'trade, industry and technology', and later the 'trade, industry and technology' view that it is better to make than to buy became the mainstream.
The mainstream view at that time was that since we could not produce the core technology, it was cheaper in foreign countries anyway. Instead of spending a lot of financial and material resources ourselves, we could just buy it. There was no need to develop it ourselves and we should not waste limited scientific research funds.
But we at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group are different. We at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group have insisted on taking the route of 'technology, industry and trade' from the very beginning.
Whether it is our previous generations of group leaders or our current group leaders, we insist that core technologies must be mastered in our own hands so as not to be restricted by others.
So Mr. Lin, don't worry, we are currently developing domestically produced large aircraft, many of whose parts are also imported from abroad.
But this is just our first step. We will eventually achieve complete localization.
We need to give ourselves time and allow us to take some detours. Scientific research cannot be achieved overnight; it is definitely a process.
If we omit this process and overemphasize the results, we may fall into the same mistake we made before, ignoring science and logic and making more progress. "
Lin Sanqi knew Dayuejin too well because he had also experienced that era in another time and space.
Although the leader's idea at the time was correct and he wanted to catch up with Britain and the United States, he was too impatient. The result of his haste for success was that he violated the laws of economics and technology and ultimately failed.
Failure is not scary. What is scary is not learning from the lesson and continuing to act recklessly. This is unforgivable.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi clapped sincerely, even though the applause seemed so abrupt and lonely in the conference room.
"Mr. Huang, Mr. Yan, and everyone at Xifei, this time I really want to give you a thumbs up.
Your thinking is clear, your steps are clear, and the future is promising. I am also looking forward to the day when our own domestically-made large aircraft will take to the sky. "
“Okay~~~”
Everyone in the conference room applauded, and the atmosphere of the negotiations between the two sides became better.
Lin Sanqi's first condition is met, so the next condition is:
"Mr. Huang, my second condition is somewhat difficult for you, but I think you should be able to help me solve it.
Actually, what I proposed at the beginning was that I wanted to buy military aircraft, such as fighter jets, bombers, transport planes, armed helicopters, etc.
But Section Chief Song told me to stop dreaming because it involved geopolitics and he would not easily sell it to a private person like me.
That’s why I chose the next best thing and purchased your Xianyang aircraft from Xi’an Aircraft Industry Group. Actually, my purpose is to establish initial cooperation with the military and reach initial trust.”
Huang Jinpeng and other senior executives of Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group exchanged glances and thought the case had been solved.
Otherwise, they really couldn't understand why Lingnan Hall would think of purchasing the Xianzhou 60 aircraft? After all, this aircraft does not have a very good reputation now.
If there are any foreign countries that really want to purchase this propeller aircraft, they can contact Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group and eliminate the need for middlemen to make a profit from the price difference.
Now they understood that Lingnan Hall was too ambitious and wanted to use the Xinzhou aircraft to "test the waters".
But because Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group is a military-industrial enterprise, they understand better why Section Chief Song refused at the beginning, so Huang Jinpeng could only say tactfully:
"Director Lin, our military industry department actually wants foreign trade orders very much. We can sell more weapons to foreign countries, so that we can earn foreign exchange. Then we will have more money to invest in weapons research and development, and embark on the path of a virtuous cycle.
However, arms exports are greatly affected by geopolitics. For example, the Cuban Missile Crisis was caused by the Soviet Union's desire to export missiles to the doorstep of the United States, which almost triggered a world nuclear war.
Another thing is that there are also some considerations when it comes to what kind of weapons to export abroad.
We will definitely not sell the most advanced weapons. This is our trump card. We need to maintain external deterrence. We don’t want to raise the ungrateful people in the south again, who will use the weapons we provided to fight us. Finally, there is one more thing, which country we export our advanced weapons to. There are also some rules. We definitely cannot export to hostile countries, and we must be cautious with fence-sitting countries. Generally, we only sell to friendly countries.
Every country has its own secrets about weapons. If we export the most advanced fighter jets, others will be able to make corresponding adjustments and research on our fighter jets, and we will be in a passive position.”
Yan Guixiang was also afraid that Lin Sanqi would be disappointed, so he added:
"Yes, Director Lin, the key is that there is currently no precedent for private agents selling weapons in our country. Generally, only state-owned enterprises such as Poly Group or China National Aviation Technology Import and Export Corporation are qualified.
So it’s not a question of money.”
Lin Sanqi was not disappointed, because Section Chief Song had already explained it to him privately.
But as a southern businessman, how could he admit defeat so easily?
When it comes to business, there is no absolute. If you don’t sell to him, it’s because the conditions are not met.
Just like people, there is no such thing as a chaste woman. If they don't cheat, it's because the temptation is not enough. With more money, more attention, there is nothing that can't be won.
"Mr. Huang, I want to ask if big agents like Poly Group or China National Aviation Technology Import & Export Corporation can export aircraft like the J-7 and Y-7? Oh, and also the Xian MA-60 aircraft that we are negotiating with now."
Now everyone at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group was a little confused.
They couldn't guess what Lin Sanqi meant by this? What was the meaning behind it? They could only understand it based on the literal meaning.
Huang Jinpeng organized his words and then said seriously:
"Director Lin, you are kidding. Although there are still a small number of J-7s flying in China, they are only used as trainer aircraft.
When it comes to the battlefield, with fourth-generation, fifth-generation, and even sixth-generation aircraft currently under development, the J-2, as a second-generation aircraft, is certainly not good enough and has fallen behind in all aspects.
This is not to boost their morale and destroy our own prestige. We military workers always act and speak truthfully. If the J-7 goes into battle, it can only mean that this country has reached the end of its rope. "
General Manager Yan Guixiang also reminded:
"So it is impossible to export fighters like the J-7. Who would buy them? If they cannot be used on the battlefield, they can only be used as target aircraft if they are bought back.
At present, the main model exported by our country is the J-10CE, which costs 16 million US dollars each. Compared with the F and Rafale fighters of the same type, this price-performance ratio is very high, and its performance also exceeds these two aircraft.
Therefore, even Poly Group or China National Aero-Technology Import & Export Corporation currently do not have the ability to sell an outdated aircraft to foreign countries. From our perspective, no one can do that.”
Lin Sanqi laughed at this time:
"Just because others can't do it doesn't mean that we at Lingnan Hall can't do it. If you don't believe me, just ask Section Chief Song. We at Lingnan Hall have a branch company called 3721 Import and Export Trading Company, which specializes in selling second-hand goods from China to foreign countries.
For example, we were responsible for the sales of all the power generators that were phased out in Dongguang Province. In the eyes of outsiders, who would want such outdated and old generators? But we were able to sell them.
Of course, who we sell to is confidential. After we sell it abroad, how foreign customers use it is not something we worry about. Just remember that Lingnan Hall can sell these outdated aircraft. "
Lin Sanqi took a sip of water, looked at the confused people on Xifei, and added:
"Look, I even dare to buy your second-hand Xianzhou 60. Don't you believe in my ability?"
The people from Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group looked at Section Chief Song again. After all, they didn't know much about Lin Sanqi's past, and Section Chief Song, the "madam", should know the most about it.
Section Chief Song was being stared at by everyone, and there was not much expression on his face.
If he could help Lin Sanqi, he would be happy to do so, provided that it did not harm national interests.
In his eyes, if Lin Sanqi could really purchase a large number of obsolete J-7 and Y-7 aircraft, it would be a good business, which would help the country get rid of a heavy burden and make a lot of money. (End of this chapter)
