Chapter 571: Favor
However, the coldness of the leaders of the army aviation did not dispel Yodel's positive attitude, so that even his assistant could not do it anymore, and persuaded him carefully: "Sir, it's just an alternative helicopter made by China itself, so ......"
"So you don't think it's necessary to be careful with flattery like this Chinese right?" Hearing this, the assistant named Hans nodded quickly, and Yodel smiled when he saw this: "So, it is not unreasonable that you have been in the company for more than three years and still have no outstanding performance, first of all, we must make it clear that everything we do is for the sake of the company's profits, and it is because of this ......"
As he spoke, Jodel's smile instantly retracted, and he looked at Hans coldly: "Put away your narrow nationalism, that thing should not be eaten, and it can never be used as money." ”
Hans was startled by Yodel's sudden reprimand, and then realized that Jodl was not only the technical director of Leipzig Repair Outsourcing, but also a senior partner of the company.
In other words, the interests of the company are directly related to the wealth of yodel's individual.
It is not difficult to understand why Yodel wants to obtain a license for the production of "small forklift" helicopters, which is the construction helicopter market in infrastructure projects with extremely high profit margins.
You must know that there is only one in this market today, relying on the refurbishment of the S-64 and aerial cranes that the US military has retreated, almost monopolizing the engineering hoisting and transportation business of complex terrain.
Extracting unimaginable excess profits for the United States and its affiliated engineering firms.
In this way, European engineering companies are particularly popular, especially Germany, as the world's main producer of engineering equipment, German engineering companies are also well-known in the world, and there are countless important projects participating in the bidding.
But with the rise of Japan and South Korea, as well as the United States' control of the head position, the competitive advantage of German engineering companies is gradually declining, but the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Germany is still poor and the old foundation is still there.
The engineering helicopter is one of the weapons to narrow the gap with the leading engineering companies in the United States.
If it were replaced by other models, Yodel would not be so on the pole, the reason is very simple, no matter how poor Europe is, it can be regarded as an industrial concentration area for helicopter production and manufacturing, even if it is not as good as the United States and the Soviet Union, but it is still more than enough to beat China.
The problem is that the Eurocopter is not only generally small in tonnage, but also all of them are mainly carried in the cockpit, and the external hanging is not impossible, but the general lifting capacity is weak.
If this were not the case, European countries would not have to import American heavy transport helicopters such as the "Chinook" and "Sea Stallion" from the United States, and in the final analysis, they would still be inferior in helicopter technology.
But if you use a heavy military transport helicopter such as "Chinook" or "Sea Stallion" to do engineering hoisting, the cost is obviously not worth it, and start a special engineering helicopter like S-64 and aerial crane, the early design and R&D investment is a large number, and the number of such special engineering helicopters will not be too large, it is difficult to dilute the cost, and there is a great risk of uncertainty, so even if it is proposed, it will largely be rejected by the board of directors or investors behind it.
However, by purchasing Ascendas Group's "small forklift" helicopter, everything will be solved.
First of all, the huge design and research and development costs in the early stage have been fully borne by the Chinese; second, from the previous five "small forklift" helicopter landing process, the overall performance is still passable.
Finally, and most importantly, the Chinese economy is now in the recovery phase, and it is in urgent need of external capital injection and export, at this time, Leipzig maintenance outsourcing company is very likely to get a license for the production of "small forklift" helicopters in a cost-effective way.
If nothing else, it is a good choice to help China repair and maintain the S-70 helicopter at a low price in exchange for a production license for a "small forklift" helicopter.
If it can be done, even if it only charges a maintenance fee of one million dollars, Leipzig Repair Outsourcing Company will definitely make a lot of money.
Hans is also an old man who has been in the company for three or four years, even if his vision is a little narrow, but after so many years of professional experience, he quickly understood Yodel's intentions, and immediately looked a little gloomy, thinking about explaining a few words to Yodel, but when he looked up, Yodel was gone.
When I turned around, I found that Yodel was like a die-hard fan of star-chasing transition, following Zhuang Jianye, who had just come out of the hangar, with a rich expression and body language to the head of Tengfei Group, talking endlessly, but Zhuang Jianye just smiled and nodded, occasionally coping with a few sentences, obviously not taking Yodel's words seriously.
But Yodel never gave up, but his enthusiasm was even higher, like a fire, which could really burn the entire desert.
I don't know if I was really moved by Yodel's sincerity, or if I was simply annoyed by being entangled, I saw Zhuang Jianye suddenly stop and say something, and then Yodel's long face with a hairy beard immediately bloomed with a smile that was more warm than a chrysanthemum, nodded excitedly, and beckoned to Hans.
Immediately trotted all the way over, shouting as he ran: "Quick, Hans, prepare the car, we are going to a county in the southwest, this is a good opportunity to get close to the engineering application of the 'small forklift' helicopter." ”
Hans was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at his watch: "Sir, then our lunch ......"
"Just eat some biscuits, time waits for no one, there is still an hour and a half before we are hoisted at two o'clock, we have to hurry up." Jodel seemed a little impatient, and Hans wanted to say something, but Yodel was eager to put on his wings and fly over, so he kept his mouth shut.
......
Not to mention how Yodel found a car, and how to go all the way to the construction site of high-voltage power transmission and transformation in a county in southwest China, Zhuang Jianye after lunch, followed the head of the army aviation and several leaders to get on an S-70 helicopter, slowly took off, and then flew towards the power transmission and transformation construction site after turning in a semicircle in the air.
When the plane was completely stable, accompanied by the noisy roar of the turboshaft engine, the head of the army aviation who was sitting opposite suddenly asked, "Xiao Zhuang, what does yodel mean?"
"I just think that our 'small forklift' helicopter meets the needs of some of their German departments, and I hope to purchase this helicopter, if I can, it is best to introduce the production line to Germany, to be honest, I am quite surprised, I really didn't expect the 'small forklift' helicopter to be favored by the Germans.
But then again, Tengfei Group's development history for so many years has been like this, and the products are all blooming inside the wall and red outside the wall...... There is no way, if it really doesn't work, you can only sell the production line, alas...... To tell the truth, chief, we Tengfei Group will not be able to open the pot in the past few years~~~"
The head of Lu Hang was fine at first, but when he heard the end, his old face trembled and began to twitch a little.
