Selling small motorcycles in mid-air to kick off the Southern Heavenly Gate Project?

Qian Zhizhou wanted to fully support his son.

This was also a task assigned by his superiors, to broaden Qian Huaijin's horizons.

The education of the next generation is especially important.

Especially for brilliant geniuses like Qian Huaijin, more training is needed.

Jade must be carved to become a useful object!

"Haishan currently has no other choice, which is our advantage. The next step is to negotiate the price."

Qian Huaijin said with a confident expression.

The Persian Empire currently has no reliable channels for procuring weapons and equipment, and the Dong'an Machinery Factory is its only potential source of access.

Haishan also had her own considerations.

His own future.

If he cannot find any reliable channels for procuring weapons and equipment, he will certainly not be given important responsibilities when he returns to Persia.

However, if he can reach a cooperation agreement with Dong'an Machinery Factory and send a batch of weapons and equipment back to China before returning home, and then sign a contract with Dong'an Machinery Factory to establish a stable procurement channel for weapons and equipment, then he will be a hero after returning to Persia.

He will be given a 120% chance of being highly valued at that time.

As for how to choose, Hai Shan was perfectly clear-headed.

This is not a multiple-choice question at all, but a mandatory one.

Currently, only Dong'an Machinery Factory can give Hai Shan a promise; as for other people, other forces, and other countries, they simply cannot.

Therefore, Dong'an Machinery Factory was not a choice, but an inevitability.

"The suicide drone, which is like a small motorcycle in the air, should cost around $150,000. As for the modified cannon, it should cost around $3,000."

When Qian Huaijin announced the price of the two weapons and equipment, the high-ranking officials of Dong'an Machinery Factory present all gasped in shock.

Based on cost, a suicide drone that flies like a motorcycle would cost at most around $50,000.

Now, Qian Huaijin has directly asked for $150,000.

Modified cannons are even cheaper; a single threaded steel pipe plus two wheels costs a maximum of around three hundred US dollars.

Qian Huaijin, however, directly demanded three thousand US dollars.

The arms trade is an extremely profitable industry.

Previously, selling to the Yan State military could yield a profit of 10% to 20%, which excited all the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory.

Now Qian Huaijin is selling it for several times the price.

You really can't argue with that.

This proves the old saying: "The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves, and a new generation surpasses the old."

Then Qian Huaijin smiled slightly and said, "In addition to the procurement of weapons and equipment, Hai Shan will most likely purchase our aerial suicide drones and modified cannon technology."

After Qian Huaijin finished speaking, he glanced at the group of senior executives from Dong'an Machinery Factory present, trying to understand their thoughts.

Just as Qian Huaijin had guessed, after hearing Hai Shan's interest in the technology of the aerial suicide drone and the modified cannon, the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory fell silent and pondered.

The technology is neither simple nor difficult, but... Dong'an Machinery Factory doesn't want to do a one-off deal. They want a steady stream of business, so that Persia can continuously purchase aerial suicide drones and modified cannons.

In this way, Dong'an Machinery Factory can have a steady stream of income, and no matter how much it struggles, it will always have a certain amount of capital on hand.

A senior executive at Dong'an Machinery Factory muttered under his breath, "We can't sell the technology of the aerial suicide drone to Persia. It's a golden goose for our Dong'an Machinery Factory."

Several senior executives from Dong'an Machinery Factory nodded in agreement.

Although the research and development is not difficult, at least it can last for a while.

Upon hearing this, Qian Huaijin was speechless. Some high-ranking officials were short-sighted and only saw the initial benefits.

After the two sides stopped cooperating, Dong'an Machinery Factory went back to its old ways.

For Dong'an Machinery Factory, it was just a pipe dream; they never actually made it out of there.

However, it is still somewhat difficult to replace some of the senior executives at Dong'an Machinery Factory.

We can only make do for now and then take things slowly later.

Qian Huaijin then said, "The aerial suicide drone, the 'little motorcycle,' has some technology involved, but what technology is there in a modified cannon?"

"We're not just going to do business with suicide drones and modified cannons; we're also going to do long-term arms deals with Persia."

After Qian Huaijin's reminder, some of the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory immediately understood his intention.

Qian Huaijin smiled faintly: "The technology of the aerial motorcycle suicide drone and the technology of the modified cannon, as well as the production line, can be sold, but if the Persian Kingdom wants them, it will need to pay a technology transfer fee."

When the Yan Kingdom's military relaxes its domestic arms and equipment trade, that will be a real feast.

Now, in addition to making money, Dong'an Machinery Factory also needs to make its contributions known to its superiors.

That will be the time to reap the benefits.

This is just a short-term gain; if we scare Hai Shan away, Dong'an Machinery Factory will be the one to suffer in the end.

It is important to distinguish between what is less important and what is less important.

Dong'an Machinery Factory is an option for Persia, but not a necessity. Other domestic military enterprises, or even the Northern Weapons Export Sales Company, will eventually realize this.

It would be extremely difficult for Dong'an Machinery Factory to get a share of the pie.

The level is there, the scale is there, the background is there.

Even Dong'an Machinery Factory can't compare to them.

Now we are just at the forefront, becoming the first Yan country military industrial enterprise to take the plunge.

Even if there is no Dong'an Machinery Factory, there are other military industrial enterprises.

You need to make your superiors see your value.

That's the most important thing.

As for everything else, those are secondary.

Most of the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory were persuaded by Qian Huaijin.

The aerial suicide drone and the modified cannon were just the opening of the door to cooperation between Dong'an Machinery Factory and the Persian Kingdom.

Once the relationship between the two parties is established.

Only then will money flow continuously into the pockets of Dong'an Machinery Factory. Focusing only on the present and not on the future is extremely short-sighted.

Qian Zhizhou glanced around at everyone and said softly, "Huaijin can solve everything. We should give the young people a chance to try and fail."

Everyone was doing it out of respect for their superiors and Qian Zhizhou.

Otherwise, how could you expect the arrogant and fierce soldiers of Dong'an Machinery Factory to listen to a boy who is only eighteen years old?

It's impossible to even think about it.

……

The two sides met again for talks the following day.

The content was almost identical to yesterday's.

The discussion revolved around the prices of aerial suicide drones and modified cannons.

Of course, Hai Shan also inquired about the prices for the technology and production lines of the two weapons systems.

The senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory, who were standing nearby, all subconsciously turned to look at Qian Huaijin.

Qian Huaijin directly quoted the price.

The technology for the aerial suicide drone, along with a production line, will cost $55 million.

The technology and production line for the modified cannon would cost 15 million US dollars.

This price isn't expensive!
