"American?"

Maxim looked in the direction of Zhuang Jianye's finger, and saw a sturdy but passable-looking Western woman climbing the co-pilot's boarding ladder to the helicopter, and couldn't help but show a trace of surprise: "Really?"

"Look at what you said, when did I, Zhuang Jianye, lie to you!" Zhuang Jianye heard this, and patted his chest twice, and called what he said categorically.

As a result, it was okay not to say this, but after saying this, Maxim's beautiful and deep big eyes were even more puzzled, and he turned his head to look at Zhuang Jianye noncommittally, and said something that made everyone present almost crazy: "Is it still less?"

Yes, Zhuang Jianye really made a lot of money from his Maxim.

Since he has experienced the earthquake relief in Kashmir, Pakistan, and has seen life and death, Maxim has grown up rapidly, but even so, Maxim, a small family sparrow, is still too tender in front of Zhuang Jianye, an old thief, and there are still a lot of various pits.

In particular, the air hospital composed of 5 Y-15 planes purchased by Maxim for 700 million US dollars is not only expensive to procure, but also the maintenance and operating costs in the later stage are so high that even Maxim, a purebred UAE prince, is a little skeptical about life.

Aviation fuel must be used from a petrochemical plant in China to produce secondary purified low-ignition point aviation kerosene, because this aviation kerosene has been specially treated and has a relatively low sulfur content, so that the medical conditions in the cabin of the main core of the air hospital, 5 aircraft, can meet the standard.

The problem is that there is only one production of this kind of secondary purified low-ignition jet fuel in the world, and it is extremely expensive, and the average price per ton is at least 3 times higher than that of ordinary aviation kerosene.

In addition to jet fuel, the same is true for special lubricants, which need to be purchased from another petrochemical company in China.

If fuel can drive people crazy, the medical equipment inside a flying hospital can destroy anyone.

There is no way, the medical equipment inside is not only expensive, but almost ridiculously expensive, can you imagine that the fixing screws of an ordinary surgical shadowless lamp cost 2,400 dollars?

You must know that this price can buy more than ten sets of shadowless lamps for surgery, as for the fixing screws, you can buy almost a ton, but when you go to the flight hospital of Tengfei Group, you can only buy one for 2,400 US dollars, and it does not include labor costs, if you count the professional maintenance fees and the cost of air tickets, accommodation and other expenses, just for a screw, Maxim will have to pay 15,000 US dollars.

Want to replace it with something else?

Maxim didn't think about it, and Tengfei Group agreed, but before that, he said a scandal in front, that is, every component of the air flight hospital is the product of Tengfei Group's optimization in all aspects in accordance with aeronautical engineering and structural mechanics, because of this, although the accessories of Tengfei Group are expensive, they can match the technical standards of the Y-15 flight hospital to the greatest extent to ensure normal operation.

It's not impossible to use other products, the key is that it is not optimized according to the actual situation of Yun-15, whether it is reliable is unknown, in case an important operation is being carried out one day, the shadowless lamp on it falls down, you Maxim can not find it, Tengfei Group is not responsible.

If it was something else, Maxim would have endured it, but medical treatment is a matter of life and health, no joke, a screw is more than 10,000 dollars, forget it, endure it!

As a result, Maxim, who was doubted by the maintenance of medical equipment, had not finished thinking about his life, and the maintenance of the Yun-15 itself almost made Maxim, a rather self-contained Emirati prince, completely turn the table.

The ordinary maintenance of a Y-15 costs $2 million, the cost of a slight replacement of parts starts at $5 million, and in the event of a major failure or the replacement of engines and avionics, $20 million is just a sprinkler of water, and $50 million in minutes is a small kiss.

You must know that Maxim's flight hospital is not a Y-15, but a full 5, so the annual cost of aircraft maintenance alone is 100 million US dollars, a little bit of a problem, 200 million US dollars is common.

If other bits and pieces are added, Maxim spends more than $300 million a year on the air hospital consisting of five Y-15s, the vast majority of which is stuffed into his own pocket by the Ascendas Group.

Although Maxim is the official prince of the United Arab Emirates and belongs to the local tyrants among the local tyrants, the money in his hand is not blown by the wind, it is exchanged for the oil under his feet drop by drop, and he can't stand such a toss.

So he approached Zhuang Jianye more than once, hoping to reduce the daily maintenance cost of the air hospital.

Zhuang Jianye is a person who is very particular, and of course the local tyrant friends have requirements, and then they must be fully satisfied, and then ...... Then Maxim suddenly discovered that the maintenance cost of his air hospital had not decreased, but had risen by 5 to 15 percent a year.

I can only go to Zhuang Jianye again, but Zhuang Jianye spread his hands and helplessly told His Royal Highness Prince Maxim: "Originally, it was to cut the maintenance fee of Emirates Airlines 5 carrier-15, but recently there was a problem with the capital turnover of Tengfei Group, no way, we packaged its aviation maintenance and accessories production business to China Merchants Bank as a whole, and now this part of the business has been included in China Merchants Bank, and you also know that they are engaged in finance, and their hearts are very black, and your side has only risen by 15% You know what the interest rate is on the loan I took from them? That's about 20 percent.

Don't say anything, my Royal Highness the Prince, the Y-15 Air Hospital is just like that, don't do it, or buy our Ascendas Group's new Air Hospital 2.0, which consists of three TRJ-500 regional airliner platforms, and the larger Air Hospital 2.5, two Y-17 with two Z-12 helicopters...... At present, we are planning the Air Hospital 3.0, and one FCNB-2000 trunk airliner can accomplish what can only be done by five Y-15 planes.

No matter how stupid Maxim is, he knows that his TMD has been cheated, and now the people in the aviation circle don't know that Tengfei Group is a shareholder of China Merchants Bank, and its business has been acquired by China Merchants Bank.

As a result, Zhuang Jianye actually said such a shameless thing so high-soundingly, and he wanted to try an upgraded version of the air hospital, Maxim couldn't wait to throw Zhuang Jianye in the face with a big snot, and he tried it, and he had to go bankrupt if he tried it.

It is precisely because of so many lessons from the past and experience of being pitted that Maxim really has no sense of trust in Zhuang Jianye, let alone a sentence, just a small look, Maxim has to think about how many pits Zhuang Jianye has buried here.

After so many years of pit friends, Maxim pouted his ass and Zhuang Jianye could know how many sheep dung eggs this thing could pull.

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Prince was so vigilant, Zhuang Jianye didn't care, took a few puffs of the cigar in his hand, and then threw it into the sea without hesitation, and immediately turned straight: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I know that you are very dissatisfied with me Zhuang Jianye, if this is the case, how about I pay 1.5 billion US dollars to take back the air hospital in your hand?

Seeing that Zhuang Jianye didn't seem to be joking, Maxim suddenly panicked and waved his hand again and again: "Don't ...... Other...... Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Zhuang...... Don't!"
