Not to mention that Liszt's head was a little swollen, even Lindemann, who came back from a walk on the beach, also felt a little headache, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Italy, these four countries actually suspended the purchase of H Company Discovery-2 UAVs at the same time, and re-tendered the relevant equipment to the world.

The Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, the three lowland countries, add up to only 100 million US dollars, Italy to stop the purchase of a bit of a fatal thing, you must know that this country alone is nearly 300 million US dollars in large orders, accounting for 30% of the entire European market, is H company no matter what.

What's more, when it was about to be delivered, this kind of thing was suddenly exposed, which was very unusual in itself, and many twists and turns were bound to be involved, so Lindemann closed his eyes and thought for more than ten minutes after learning about the situation, and then picked up the phone and called several times in a row.

Soon I got an approximate situation from an American diplomat, and it turned out that after Company H swept half of Europe and won more than a billion dollars in drone orders, it immediately caused concern in France and Germany, the two European cores.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, and the attempts of the American aviation giants to use the nail of drones to enter Europe and overturn the entire aviation manufacturing industry are clearly seen by France and Germany.

Forget it if this is in other industries, anyway, the United States is the leading big brother, and when the younger brother doesn't have that strength, you can get it if you want to fight.

The problem is that Europe is now grabbing excess profits in the aviation manufacturing industry, not to mention anything else, the European Airbus company, which has not been established for a long time, has made tens of billions of dollars in passenger aircraft profits every year, and has become a pillar industry in European countries, especially France and Germany, the two core countries of the European Community.

More importantly, through the integration of the aviation industry, it is not only the competitiveness of the industry that will be strengthened, but also the political integration within Europe.

In other words, through the high degree of closed loop of the aviation industry, it has greatly promoted the historical process of Europe from decentralized cooperation to a high degree of unity, which has great political significance.

With both external economic interests and internal political significance, the European aviation industry will inevitably become the bottom line of European countries, especially France and Germany.

In other words, the United States can be horizontal in other aspects, but when it touches this line, I'm sorry, even if we are a family, we have to settle accounts with our brothers.

And now, the American aviation giants have taken the opportunity to support Company H not only touched, but also prepared to trample on it with their feet, and France and Germany are naturally like cats with tails, how can they resist.

So they used their influence within the European Community to do one of the things that Europeans like to do the most, that is, to set so-called European standards.

Then use a set of European standards, alas~~H company's discovery -2 several indicators do not meet the conditions of Europe, forget it, go back and change it, and then come to bid after the change.

It looks very humane, after all, people write clearly in black and white, just do it according to the requirements, the problem is that when you change it back, people's own aviation companies in Europe will take out their own products, and then bid, and Europe will naturally choose its own products.

If you want to protest, people will say: "It's not that I don't want your products, you also saw that XX company's products are more in line with the usage habits of Europeans, so, I'm sorry, I hope we have a happy cooperation next time." ”

Europeans have used similar practices to pit many people, including the big brother of the United States, when Airbus was first established, in order to sell A series passenger aircraft, Europeans did just that, the result is that Boeing, McDonnell Douglas passenger aircraft market share in Europe has declined sharply, A series passenger aircraft have gradually risen, and finally firmly stand in the huge shipping market in Europe.

Now Europe is doing this again, obviously repeating the old trick and delaying time, the problem is that Boeing and McDonnell Douglas were one trick back then, can the H company, which is full of historical experience, be pitted by the Europeans again?

So that night, Lindeman boiled the phone porridge for most of the night, chatted with Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, General Motors, Northrop, Lockheed and other giants involved in the aviation industry, and then exchanged views with the heads of the New York Times, Washington Post, American Radio, ** and other media.

Liszt then flew back to New York overnight, and then transferred to Europe.

Lindemann believed that the H Company, which used huge resources, would never let history repeat itself, and that the Europeans wanted to delay time, and the Chernobyl nuclear accident in the Soviet Union could not be ignored, and the nuclear leakage from all the time continued to increase the nuclear contamination of the Eurasian continent.

It's okay at other times, and Company H can't do anything in the face of the Europeans who have been playing tricks for two hundred years~~, but now, with the help of the gods of Chernobyl in the Soviet Union, who is playing who~~~ gangsters is really uncertain.

Indeed, when Liszt returned to New York and boarded a United flight to Rome, Italy, the next day, the major American media, benefiting from the aviation giants, began to report on the suffering of European people under nuclear contamination.

One of them, "Eight Thousand Meters of Floating Debris," written by Martin, a veteran reporter for the Washington Post, depicts a seemingly dreamy but brutal reality of Europe's worst health crisis since the Black Death in the Middle Ages, with a unique perspective of God and a smart brushstroke.

Because the article was brilliantly written and touched the soul, it was reprinted by major American media, and the **, which was originally used for Soviet propaganda, was broadcast in full to the whole of Europe for the first time.

When Liszt got off the plane from Rome International Airport, he heard the voice of the announcer from the mini radio he carried with him, and when he left the airport, Liszt, who was fluent in Italian, bought a local newspaper and soon found a report on "Floating Objects on Eight Thousand Meters" on a prominent page.

Liszt couldn't help but smile, and his heart was immediately full of confidence, and he could even imagine in his mind the appearance of the Italian officials in charge of procurement being driven crazy by the pressure of public opinion.

Soon the car drove into an Italian air force base, which is the place where Italy is responsible for testing drones, and it is also the destination of Liszt's trip to Italy.

The two sides shook hands cordially, and after some greetings, Liszt asked meaningfully: "General, have you read today's newspaper?"

"Of course, not only the newspaper, but also the original text of "Floating Objects on Eight Thousand Meters" I read twice. Savalino and Liszt walked side by side into the office building, speaking very seriously.

Liszt smiled: "How do you feel?"

"With all due respect, after reading this article, we can't source your products anymore. Savalino was blunt.

"Why?"

Savalino shrugged: "Because your drone can't fly eight thousand meters at all." ”
