Chapter 155 Export Permit for Fighters

Seeing that Tengfei Group and Alcoa are like a pair of good friends, they have raised the price of aluminum-lithium alloy to the peak of history, and the coffin board of the European aluminum company, which has completely hit the street, has almost not been suppressed.

If it is not clear that it is the pit dug by the Tengfei Group and the Alcoa Group for the European Aluminum Company, then the heads of the Europeans will really be out of the pit.

If it weren't for that, how could Tengfei Group jump up and down in the aluminum-lithium alloy market like a Malaysian monkey, and the price would break through the floor and hit the eighteenth layer of hell.

Such a practice is malicious competition in any country in the world, but the United States just said that Tengfei Group's approach is in line with the principles of market economy and is conducive to the healthy development of the aluminum-lithium alloy market, and then ...... Then he gave a huge subsidy to his own aluminum group.

However, the European aluminum company has not yet asked for subsidies, but before the European Community submitted an application, it was overwhelmingly scolded by the US media for destroying the market environment and unfair competition.

It's all an old goblin who plays double standards, who doesn't know who is a thousand-year-old vixen?

But even if they knew, the Europeans could only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

No way, since the end of the Cold War, the Soviet Union collapsed, Europe has been close to the water, and the overall situation has rushed into Eastern Europe, robbing people, food, and girls...... Phew, it's to seize the market.

The original European Community has doubled in size, there is a market, the product has a market, there is a market, there is a market, the wallet of the European Community member states will bulge, the wallet will bulge and the waist pole will naturally straighten, and then I will find that the dollar is really not a good thing, since this is the case, then let's simply scrap the dollar and make a euro.

After a series of operations, the euro was put on the agenda and soon became a non-physical trading currency, beginning to replace the dollar as the new international reserve currency around the world.

The reason why the United States can become a hegemon is nothing more than two cornerstones, one is the US military, and the second is the US dollar.

Now that Europeans have begun to engage in the euro and intend to replace the dollar as the world's reserve currency, they are digging the graves of their ancestors.

Ordinary people are committed to stealing people's money like killing their parents, not to mention the Americans who hold hegemony.

Because of this, the Americans can put everything else in the world to the table, but the Europeans say that the euro must be pressed to death first.

The problem is that Europeans and Americans are too familiar with each other's routines, and they can pout their butts to the point of pulling a few pounds of shit, so Europeans have long been fully prepared for the possible actions of the Americans.

Of course, the Americans have a headache on their side, so they urgently need a tool man who does not play according to the routine to break the deadlock.

So Tengfei Group, an atypical aerospace company, entered the field of vision of the Americans, and under the matchmaking of Liszt and Merlinz and others, Tengfei Group threw itself into the warm embrace of the United States without hesitation, and then flattened the European aluminum company with a big move.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Ascendas and Alcoa are clearly slamming down European aluminum, and actually hitting the Airbus company behind it.

Because 95% of the aluminum-lithium alloys on Airbus' various A-series passenger aircraft come from European aluminum companies.

When the price war was just emerging, in order to support the European aluminum industry, Airbus not only did not sign a preferential guarantee agreement with the Ascendas Group and the American Aluminum Group like Boeing, so that it could get a very generous purchase price for raw materials, but carried out a deep bundle with the European aluminum industry, and always used higher than the market price to purchase European aluminum products.

At this time, Boeing, which has hoarded a large number of low-cost aluminum-lithium alloys, began to significantly reduce the price of all models, and Airbus wanted to follow, but their raw material procurement cost was 22.4% higher than that of Boeing, and they couldn't keep up at all.

It was not until this time that Airbus found that it had fallen into the trap, and quickly cut with the European aluminum company to survive, but Airbus's decisiveness was still a step slower, with the European aluminum industry completely hit the street, the price of aluminum-lithium alloy skyrocketed again, although Airbus desperately swept the goods still could not resist the increase in the price of a day, resulting in the cost of materials soaring again.

Due to the previous guarantee agreement, whether it is from Tengfei Group or Alcoa, Boeing can get the goods 35% lower than the market price, one original price, one lower than the market price, between one high and one low, Boeing's cost advantage is immediately apparent.

If nothing else, let's talk about fighters, the F-15 produced by Boeing is a proper heavy fighter, and the price is actually one-third cheaper than the French medium fighter "Rafale".

After all, the aluminum-lithium alloy applied above is 35% lower than the market price, while the aluminum-lithium alloy on the French Rafale costs 400,000 US dollars a ton, and if you want to use high-end aluminum-lithium alloy containing beryllium that can be conventionally welded, it will even cost 80 to 1 million US dollars a ton.

So much so that Dassault executives lamented that their Rafale was not made of aluminum alloys, but was really produced in gold.

The Europeans, who had been cut a wave of leeks, learned from the pain and came directly to the waves, announcing that almost all military and civilian models will greatly increase the amount of composite materials in the future and gradually get rid of the dependence on aluminum-lithium alloys.

Zhuang Jianye, who got the news, smiled slightly, not long ago, he just ended the price war with Toray and DuPont around the mid-range carbon fiber composite material under the coordination of Liszt, and the Europeans jumped out in time to endorse their settlement.

As a result, Tengfei Group was shocked, and the price of almost all self-produced composite materials in Europe was cut in half in an instant.

Others don't know much about the money-making methods hidden behind the public products of Tengfei Group, but the head of the headquarters knows very well, after all, some things are personally approved by him, otherwise Tengfei Group will fight a price war with others with so much money.

Of course, the benefits are also huge.

Take aluminum-lithium alloy as an example, in the past three years, it has made a total net profit of 500 billion.

So Tengfei Group is not without money, but quite rich, if not, the head of the headquarters will not be disgusted by Zhuang Jianye's poverty, you pretend to be professional, temporarily tear the shirt, or the brand goods imported from Italy, do not be so fake.

But if it's fake, the head of the headquarters still has to give it to the head of the headquarters, after all, all these things that Zhuang Jianye showed him are the foundation of the future, and he can't support it if he wants to.

The problem is one or two, and the head of the headquarters can still make a decision, and make four or five at a time, even if he has plenty of money on hand, he still can't afford it, so the head of the headquarters rolled his eyes slightly: "Xiaozhuang, how much do you think the fighter export license is worth?"

"It depends on the time limit. ”

"Five years. ”

"At least 20 billion!"

"That's okay, in the next three years, I will take out 10 billion yuan plus a fighter export license, so calculate, Comrade Zhuang Jianye, you have made a lot of money!" The head of the headquarters smiled happily, but Zhuang Jianye's face turned black.
