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

Kazakov led Qian Huaijin and the others to a relatively secluded restaurant, where the environment was quite tranquil.

You won't be disturbed by others.

After Qian Huaijin and the others were seated, the banquet officially began.

This time, Kazakov replaced the liquor with vodka.

Kazakov believes that the drink he had last time was not vodka, but a fifteen-year-old vintage.

He wasn't used to drinking that way, which is why Qian Huaijin and the others got him drunk.

But tonight's banquet is different; we're drinking vodka that I'm familiar with.

Today we're definitely going to drink Qian Huaijin and that shorty Wang Hao under the table.

If we wait until tomorrow to negotiate, we can firmly grasp the initiative in our own hands.

Just thinking about it makes me happy.

But is the reality really as Kazakov wished?

That's not necessarily true!

The principle remains the same no matter how things change, and drinking is no exception.

Wang Hao is a heavy drinker, even if it's high-proof vodka, he's still fine.

Qian Huaijin certainly understood Kazakov's arrangement.

But can they outdrink their own team?

That depends on Kazakov's strength.

This is a silent battle of swords and shadows.

Both sides want to gain the upper hand in the upcoming negotiations.

Having the initiative and not having the initiative are two different things.

Both groups immediately started drinking vodka.

"Dry!"

Excuse me!"

"Dry…"

"Excuse me!"

"Dry……"

"Excuse me!"

Qian Huaijin only drank a portion; Wang Hao blocked most of it.

In short, Wang Hao accepted all comers.

Drink as much as you come.

Wang Hao drank most of the vodka that was offered to Qian Huaijin.

Two hours later, almost all of Kazakov's men were drunk to the point of unconsciousness by Wang Hao.

Only Kazakov and a few staff members remained.

Wang Hao's face only had a slight flush from being drunk.

It feels like I'll collapse after the next glass of baijiu.

Kazakov was utterly shocked: "I want to see the license plate!!!"

Wang Hao: The cards are fine!!!

Drinking alcohol is no different from drinking water.

Her face was just a little red.

"Comrade, I'm impressed. I really didn't expect him to be such a heavy drinker."

Kazakov was completely convinced of his drinking prowess.

I originally thought my family members were good drinkers.

He also specifically selected staff members who could drink a lot.

But unexpectedly, the short guy Qian Huaijin brought got everyone drunk and passed out.

Overbearing and domineering, no further explanation needed.

Upon hearing this, Qian Huaijin's lips curled up slightly, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.

The two then left the restaurant by car and returned to their secret guesthouse.

Back at the guesthouse, Qian Huaijin patted Wang Hao on the shoulder and said thank you, "Engineer Wang, thank you for your help this time. Getting the Su people drunk will be very helpful for our negotiations tomorrow."

"Once you return to China, Dong'an International Trading Company will certainly not treat you unfairly."

"You can rest at the guesthouse for the next few days. We'll let you know when it's time to go back."

Upon hearing Qian Huaijin's words of gratitude, Wang Hao couldn't help but smile.

This is the result he wanted.

This action marked a new step for him.

If there is another event like this in the future, I will be Qian Huaijin's first choice.

He hopes this opportunity can continue.

Wang Hao is unremarkable in other aspects, except when it comes to drinking. He dares to claim second place, but as for first place, he thinks the other person hasn't even been born yet!

Kazakov returned to his trading company with a gloomy expression.

I knew Wang Hao could drink, but I didn't know he could drink that much.

A dozen or so people were drinking with him. (Announcement: Update coming soon, please stay tuned!) As a result, their side was almost completely wiped out. If it weren't for Qian Huaijin letting him go because they were going to discuss cooperation the next day...

Otherwise, Kazakov would also be drunk out by Wang Hao.

You really can't judge a book by its cover, and you can't measure the sea with a bucket.

……

Time flies by, the night fades and the day dawns.

Qian Huaijin met with Kazakov in the conference room.

This discussion concerns the technology transfer of two aircraft engines: the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and the GTD-350 aero engine.

The bottom line for both sides is that neither wants the negotiations to break down and both want to achieve cooperation.

The only disagreement between the two parties was over the price.

Kazakov argued that the technology transfer for the two aircraft engines would cost $300 million.

Qian Huaijin, however, estimated the figure to be between 150 million and 200 million US dollars.

The main issue is that Kazakov only provided five TV3-117 turboshaft engines and five GTD-350 aircraft engines.

The previous purchase list stated 220 units.

This is a reduction of more than 90%.

The procurement amount will definitely have to be reduced.

"Kazakov, our Dong'an International Trading Company is very sincere in wanting to import the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and GTD-350 aircraft engine from you, but the price you offered is simply too high."

"If you're willing to increase the number of finished aircraft engines to five hundred, I'll agree to the three hundred million US dollar price on the spot."

Qian Huaijin directly expressed his thoughts.

There's a limit to asking for exorbitant prices and negotiating after the fact.

It's impossible to just randomly set prices.

"Comrade, you must understand my difficulties. Helping your Yan country import the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and GTD-350 aircraft engine is a huge risk."

"Comrade, you must understand my difficulties. Helping your Yan country import the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and GTD-350 aircraft engine is a huge risk."

"If you're not careful, you might only see me at the shooting range."

Kazakov calmly shook his head.

In his view, he shouldn't put all the risks on himself.

Even if it means taking all the risks yourself, there needs to be a huge incentive to motivate you.

Otherwise, who would be willing to take such a big risk to help Yan Country import the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and the GTD-350 aircraft engine?

"Kazakov, even that can't double!"

"You only received 130 million US dollars for the technology transfer of the TV3-117 turboshaft engine and the GTD-350 aero engine."

"This would cost 300 million US dollars here, which is quite unreasonable."

Seeing that Kazakov was unwilling to budge, Qian Huaijin directly brought up the matter of the Soviet Union reaching a cooperation agreement with a certain country to sell TV3-117 turboshaft engines and GTD-350 aircraft engines, with technology transfer involved.

Now Qian Huaijin is directly talking about the deal he made a while ago.

Upon hearing this, Kazakov was greatly alarmed.

He really didn't expect that Qian Huaijin would know about this deal.

Although there have been international reports, the transaction amount is kept confidential.

How did Qian Huaijin know the contents of the Soviet Union's classified documents?

This was something that Kazakov couldn't understand at all.

But he definitely won't admit it.

Qian Huaijin couldn't do anything about him.

The two sides argued in the meeting room about the GTD-350 aero engine and the TV3-117 turboshaft engine, like aunties at a vegetable market, chattering on and on, with neither side willing to give in at first.

Qian Huaijin thought it was expensive, while Kazakov thought it was cheap.

It will be difficult for either of them to persuade the other in the short term.

This involves issues of interest, so it will definitely be difficult in the short term.

This isn't just a matter of a thousand or several million US dollars.

It's a matter of hundreds of millions of US dollars.

Both sides were very cautious and neither wanted to concede too much.

Making too many concessions will harm one's own interests.

Qian Huaijin raised the price to 150 million US dollars.

Kazakov, however, remained adamant about sticking to the $300 million figure.

The main reason was that he felt the risks were too great.

The only way to reduce one's own risk is to use money.
