A doctor who travels through two eras

With a 600 billion yuan order already in place, the current 28 billion yuan small order doesn't interest Lin Sanqi at all, and he's too lazy to haggle anymore.

Instead of bullying honest people, he even offered them another large order.

"Chairman He, I have no problem with this price."

Upon hearing this, the group from Shaanxi Aircraft Industry Group gasped in amazement, their faces beaming with joy.

28 billion! You can get so much money by exchanging a few old planes. This is asset restructuring and reuse, it's like picking up money for free, so everyone is overjoyed.

Who knew that Lin Sanqi would give them another big gift later.

"Chairman He, I wonder if Shaanxi Aircraft Industry Group sells any drones?"

Upon hearing this, He Chenggong's eyes lit up again, thinking that he could try to sell something more.
"Yes, Shaanxi Aircraft Industry Group is also at the forefront of drone technology. Chairman Lin, are you looking for a large drone? Our group's ibis shadow system drone is definitely a good value for money and worth having."

Lin Sanqi waved his hand. Large drones have a long range and a large payload, but they are very dependent on GPS signals, which was something that couldn't be solved in the 1960s.

"Mr. He, you should know that my customers are all in faraway Africa. The people there are not very well-educated. They don't know how to operate anything too complicated, and they don't have the technical support for anything too advanced."

So I need to import some small and medium-sized drones, of course military versions, all models are required. I think this should not violate the confidentiality regulations, right?

"So, give me 10,000 aircraft initially, I need them urgently. I'll order another 100,000 later; this can all be written into the contract, and I'm willing to pay a deposit."

Lin Sanqi was truly at a loss. The Y-20 was not for sale, the Y-9 was not for sale, and the J-20 was out of the question.

What Lin Sanqi didn't know was that the Z-20 helicopter, which was suitable for high-altitude operations, was also not for sale.

Not selling this, keeping that secret—Lin Sanqi felt that domestic military factories were too stifled. On one hand, they wanted to generate revenue, and on the other hand, they were subject to restrictions. It was like dancing with shackles on their feet.

Why can't we learn from the Americans? As long as you pay, you can choose whatever weapons you want, and they'll just pretend to dump them all on you when they retreat.

Upon hearing about the large order for over 100,000 drones, He Chenggong was overjoyed.

"Alright, alright, Chairman Lin, no problem. There are no export restrictions on small and medium-sized drones, and Shaanxi Aircraft Industry Group can provide them. We'll supply as many as you need. In the field of drones, my country is absolutely number one in the world; no other country can compare."

Lin Sanqi didn't waste any time:
"Then it's settled. I hope to receive the goods as soon as possible, the sooner the better. As for payment, Mr. He, you don't need to worry. We will exchange money for goods on the spot, and we will never delay payment."

Chairman He then discussed the matter quietly with the team members beside him for a while before confirming:

“Okay, Chairman Lin, that’s settled then. You specify the airport, and we’ll apply for the flight routes for the 20 Y-8 transport planes, ensuring they arrive within a week. As for the drones, we have them in stock in our warehouse, so that’s not a problem either.”

Lin Sanqi was relieved upon hearing this:
"That's good. Mr. He, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

"Happy cooperation!"

Both sides stood up, and these several large transactions, totaling over 40 billion, were easily concluded.

He Chenggong glanced at his watch; the enthusiasm of the people of Northwest China was now palpable.
"Chairman Lin, and Old Huang, it's almost evening. Come on, come on! Today it's my treat. I'll take you to Tang Yuegong. Tang Yuegong is a specialty of Xi'an. Before dinner, you can watch a classical Tang-style music and dance performance. It's a double enjoyment of delicious food and art!"

Lin Sanqi said shyly:

"Mr. He, I'm really interested in the restaurant you mentioned that offers both performances and delicious food, but I'm really pressed for time. That's why I'm planning to fly to Changchun right away to purchase a batch of large trucks."

After leaving Changchun, I'm planning to go to the capital to try and find some connections to purchase a batch of machine guns, rifles, and the like. Time is very tight. Chairman He, Chairman Huang, next time you come to Huadu, I'll treat you to the finest Moutai.

He Chenggong blinked, somewhat puzzled, and asked:
You want a gun? An export one?

Lin Sanqi thought to himself, "Of course it's for export. I wouldn't dare play with this stuff in China. Anyone who does would die."

“Yes, I could have gone to Israel to buy a batch, but the transaction volume there is not large. Small batches are possible, but large quantities are not available. So I thought I would try my luck in China, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll look for connections abroad.”

He Chenggong slapped his thigh, and Huang Jinpeng chuckled as well:
"Chairman Lin, Chairman Lin, oh dear, you're really like someone who can't find the temple gate even when holding a pig's head. Why go abroad? Just buy it domestically. Whatever quantity or type you want, we have it all."

Huang Jinpeng also laughed and said:

"Our domestic weapons are now in no way inferior to those abroad. Unlike airplanes, which have export restrictions, we can export as many guns as foreign countries want. Right now, domestic arms factories are worried about not being able to find orders and not being able to sell their stock. But you're worried about not being able to buy guns. Others are going both ways, but you're missing out on both. Haha."

Lin Sanqi was relieved to hear this, finally receiving another piece of good news.

His biggest fear right now is that he wants this gun, but they say they won't sell it. He wants that kind of gun, but they say there are restrictions, which would be awkward.

He Jinpeng immediately took out his phone and dialed a number while speaking:
"Chairman Lin, you can have dinner in Xi'an. If you want to buy guns for export, I can just give you a call and the manufacturers will be there tonight. You can choose whatever you want. It's that simple."

Before Lin Sanqi could reply, He Chenggong had already made a phone call and started shouting loudly.

"Hey, Lao Zhao, congratulations on your fortune... What? What's the good news?... Let me tell you, I have a client who needs to export a large number of guns, each starting at 10 billion. Aren't you going to get rich?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Pingzhi, chairman of Dongfang Ordnance Group, immediately stood up upon hearing this:

"Old He, is it true? What country is the buyer from? Is he reliable?"

He Chenggong glanced at Lin Sanqi and chuckled:
Have you ever heard of the Huadu Lingnantang Group?

Zhao Pingzhi nodded blankly and said:
"Lingnan Hall? I know them. They recently purchased hundreds of aircraft from China, and the transaction was said to exceed 600 billion. Damn it, how come we never run into such a big spender?"

He Chenggong chuckled and said smugly:
"Hey, Lao Zhao, let me tell you, Chairman Lin of Lingnan Hall is right here with me. They urgently need to purchase a batch of guns."

"So? Interested? Let me tell you, if I hadn't stopped him, another weapons company would have snatched him up."

There are many arsenals in China capable of producing firearms, located from south to north. Later, two major arms groups were established in China to unify production and sales.

The largest of them are the Eastern Ordnance Industry Group Corporation and the Western Ordnance Industry Group Corporation (actually, the South and the North).

There's an information asymmetry now, and Lin Sanqi is waving his checks, unsure where to buy weapons.

If other arsenals find out about this "god of wealth" with a huge order, believe it or not, there will be a rush to recruit him right now.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Zhao Pingzhi immediately shouted excitedly:

"Old He, you're truly my benefactor! Chairman Lin, please treat me well, make sure I have the best food and drinks, and cover all the expenses. Tomorrow, oh no, now, I'll find a way to come over right now. If there are no commercial flights, I'll take a private jet."

He Chenggong laughed as soon as he heard this:

"Alright, you said it yourself, Mr. Zhao, the whole place is on the bill tonight, so Old Huang and I won't stand on ceremony."

Zhao Pingzhi, He Chenggong, and Huang Jinpeng were all classmates, the first batch of college students in 77, so they were naturally in the same circle and would help each other out when something good happened.

That evening, Lin Sanqi was invited to a lavish meal and also watched a song and dance performance.

After all, it's a government agency; they couldn't possibly take him to some top-tier club, order a few young models, and have ten sets of Aces of Spades played on the spot...

While Lin Sanqi was being entertained at a business banquet, Zhao Pingzhi, the CEO of Dongfang Ordnance Group, was in a panic because there were no more flights to Xi'an that evening.

The secretary comforted him, "Mr. Zhao, why don't we leave early tomorrow morning? There's a plane at 7 a.m., so it won't make a difference if we leave one more night."

Zhao Pingzhi shook his head firmly:

"No, we have to go tonight. I have inside information, which gives me an advantage. But as you know, we're all old acquaintances in the military industry, and the information is as transparent as a sieve, so there's no way to keep it a secret."

If our competitors beat us to it, we'll be devastated. Lingnantang is a company that either doesn't do anything at all, or when they do, it's a major undertaking. This affects our entire year's performance, so we absolutely must seize this opportunity.

At this point, Zhao Pingzhi picked up the phone, found a number, and dialed it:

"Old Wang, Shiwanhuoji, arrange a military plane for me right now. I need to fly to Xi'an immediately. Yes, right now, immediately, instantly. Consider it a favor I owe you."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Pingzhi let out a long sigh and quickened his pace to leave.

"Let's go, grab the documents, let's set off now!" (End of Chapter)
