Since he came to the Ivchenko Design Bureau, of course, it is impossible to just talk about business, Chen Geng must see the employees of COMAC in the Ivchenko Design Bureau.
"Chen Dong ......"
"Hello Chen Dong......"
Seeing the boss, everyone was very excited, and consciously lined up and greeted Chen Geng enthusiastically.
"Hello everyone," Chen Geng shook hands with everyone one by one, and asked with concern: "I know that for the development of the company, everyone has paid a lot, I don't represent our COMAC Group, only on behalf of me personally thank you, thank you for your hard work and hard work for the company in a foreign country." ”
"Chen Dong, you are too polite......"
"These are the ...... we should have"
"The living and working conditions here are a little better than in China, and we have nothing to dislike about ......"
............
Everyone said one after another.
It seems that everyone is satisfied with the living and working conditions in the USSR.
Chen Geng listened while nodding secretly in his heart, and when everyone finished speaking, Chen Geng asked again: "Let me ask again, have you encountered any difficulties in living and working here?" If you have told me, no matter what the problem is, I will try my best to help you solve it...... Didn't you?"
After speaking, Chen Geng paused for a moment and observed everyone's reactions, and what surprised Chen Geng a little was that there was no one who raised his hand to say that he was being bullied...... It's strange, is Lao Maozi so polite, so gentle and frugal?
Some worries about whether it would be because everyone was specially emphasized to maintain "harmony" with the Soviet comrades before coming to the Soviet Union, Chen Geng spoke again: "Even if you say something, you should not have the idea of 'for the sake of national interests, even if you are wronged, because it may damage the diplomatic relations between China and the Soviet Union', I don't know if Comrade Wang Dazhi told you before you came, 'Don't clash with the Soviet comrades after you arrive at the Ivchenko Design Bureau, just endure it if you can', but I think there is a high probability that there is."
But what I want to say is, don't pay attention to this, to tell the truth that you may be a little uncomfortable listening to, don't take yourself too seriously, a little personal dispute between you and the Soviet comrades has not risen to the extent of affecting diplomatic relations, we are here to study in the Soviet Union, but don't forget that whether it is a Yak-130 aircraft or an AI-222-25 engine, we are all gold owners, do you know what gold owners are? The gold master is the big man, who dares to bully us, the company will definitely help you get angry! So ...... it"
Speaking of this, Chen Geng paused again and asked, "Comrades, don't hide it, have we been bullied?"
Seeing Chen Geng's posture of "I must find evidence that comrades are being bullied", Guo Yifan, head of the COMAC Design Bureau in Ivchenko and former senior deputy chief engineer of Chengfa Plant, hurriedly explained to Chen Geng: "Chen Dong, don't worry, if you want to say that there are disputes in specific work, there are them, but in work and life, the comrades of the Soviet Union really did not bully us, do you believe it, comrades, the comrades of the Soviet Union really take good care of us?"
"Really?"
Chen Geng looked at Guo Yifan, and looked at the comrades in front of him with suspicion.
"Really, Chairman Chen, don't worry, the comrades in the Soviet Union are really good to us. ”
"Chairman Chen, don't worry, we are here to work and live very well......"
............
In the midst of the chaos, it was Guo Yifan who explained to Chen Geng the reason why COMAC would not be bullied here: "Chairman, if it weren't for these daily necessities that you send every month, it would be good if the comrades of the Ivchenko Design Bureau could have enough bread to eat now. ”
After Guo Yifan finished speaking, everyone immediately responded.
Chen Geng also smiled: "Okay, since everyone is doing well in both work and life, then I can rest assured." ”
Guo Yifan knows very well what he should say at this time: **OSS is already so concerned, shouldn't he work hard to repay the organization's care? He solemnly said: "Please rest assured that the company provides us with the best working and living conditions, and we will definitely do our best to live up to the expectations of the organization, work hard, and study hard......
Chen Geng smiled and nodded: That's right.
....................................
According to the Ivchenko Design Bureau, after the high-altitude platform tests have been completed, the next thing for the AI-222-25 engine is the final test: the AI-222-25 engine is mounted on a Yak-130 for final verification.
If this final verification confirms that there are no problems with the engine, it can be determined that the engine design is officially completed, and the next step is the technology freezing phase and the start of mass production.
If everything goes well, the process will take about half a year, and according to Yuri Kravchenko's confident statement: "In fact, at this point, the AI-222-25 may have some minor problems that have not been discovered, but there can be no major problems." ”
In this case, Chen Geng had nothing to worry about, and after bidding farewell to the Ivchenko Design Bureau, Chen Geng rushed back to Moscow again - he needed to talk to Nikolai Malenkov well.
"Mr. Fernández, I have communicated privately with some comrades about what they thought of you...... Not very agreeable. Nikolai Malenkov frowned, his expression was somewhat serious: "You may have some trouble with your ideas. ”
"Oh?" Chen Geng raised his eyebrows: "How do you say it?
"The main thing is that there was no such precedent before," said Nikolai Malenkov, "and although China is also a socialist country, it ...... But ......"
Although Nikolai Malenkov's squeaky words were unknown, Chen Geng immediately understood the meaning of his words: I don't look down on Huaxia!
What role did the Soviet Union play in the socialist countries all along?
Parents, Daddy.
If the younger brothers have any problems and troubles, they all come to the Soviet father to solve them: what should I do if I am short of money and materials?
To put it mildly, when we had just founded the People's Republic of China, the more than 150 industrial projects that the Soviet Union assisted us actually carried such a little color - you Soviet Union is the big brother of socialism, and we socialist brothers are in trouble, how can you not help?
Of course, the benefits must be wanted, after all, the Soviet Union is not a good man and a woman, but to put it bluntly, in the matter of aiding its younger brother, the various additional conditions and requirements put forward by the Soviet Union in the aid are actually much less than those put forward by the United States in foreign aid.
It's just that this also made the Soviets suffer, especially among the republics within the Soviet Union, and for a long time Russia played the role of a blood transfusion to the republics.
In the original time and space, why did Russia in 1991 leave the Soviet Union with such determination? The blood transfusion of other union republics over the past few decades is probably the most important reason.
But there is no doubt that the current Soviet Union still enjoys the role of a father, especially for officials personally, how cool it is to be a father, anyway, it is not from my personal wallet.
Understanding this, Chen Geng was not polite to Nikolai Malenkov, he sneered and said: "Nikolai, with all due respect, the current Soviet Union is already too busy to take care of itself, and there are still material and financial resources to take care of others?"
"Uh...... This ......"
Nikolai Malenkov's face was a little embarrassed, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond: you said it directly, right?
Direct?
Next, Chen Geng proved with facts: Where is this going, there is something more direct.
"I just don't understand, on the one hand, you Soviet Union desperately want to earn foreign exchange, and the dollar of China's purchase of Su-27 fighter jets and India's purchase of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft is bigger than your eyeballs, but on the other hand, you are not happy to have a long-term opportunity to earn dollars," Looking at Nikolai Malenkov, Chen Geng said slowly, "Nikolai, tell me, what do you think? Is the money earned from such a small stream of water poisonous?"
“......”
Nikolai Malenkov's old face is flushed!
At the same time that his old face was flushed, Nikolai Malenkov felt that what Chen Geng said was also reasonable, and for a while even those who held opposing opinions hated: Why? The money earned so much is poisonous? and...... Fernandez Chen promised me a 5% stake, but if you don't agree, where will my stake come from?
Looking at Nikolai Malenkov's appearance, Chen Geng knew that the time was almost up.
He shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed face: "Whether this project can be completed or not, it doesn't matter to me personally, you all know that I am very rich, and I don't care about money at all, money is just a bunch of undoubted numbers for me, I hope to be able to help my friends, but although I am willing to help my friends, it is impossible to stick my hot face to other people's cold butts, Nikolai, right?"
Install X, this is simple, it's not too easy!
There is a horse father, this is the king, isn't it easy to pretend to be an X?
Nikolai Malenkov: "......"
What can he say?
Although Nikolai Malenkov felt from the bottom of his heart that Chen Geng's words were simply X-extreme, there was no way, who made the family the richest man in the world?
You must know that so far, the Soviet Union's foreign debt is more than 20 billion US dollars, and Fernandez Chen's personal wealth has exceeded 33 billion US dollars, that is to say, the foreign debt accumulated by the Soviet Union over the years is equivalent to more than half of Fernandez Chen's total wealth, so although you know that Chen Geng's words "I don't care about money, money has no meaning to me" are pretending to be X, but you are still speechless - the Soviet Union is one of the two poles of the world, this situation is simply heartfirst to death.
Nikolai Malenkov understands better that this time this matter is really like what Chen Geng said, he doesn't care whether it succeeds or not, anyway, it will not have much impact on his personal wealth, but for the Soviet Union, it is completely different, for the Soviet Union, it means losing a stable source of finance.
After being stimulated by Chen Geng's face for a burst of red and white, Nikolai Malenkov finally nodded: "I...... Mr. Fernández, I'm going to talk to you a little bit more. ”
"Okay. Chen Geng nodded indifferently: "But if the result is still not ideal, forget about this project." ”
Chen Geng's face didn't matter, but Nikolai Malenkov was anxious all of a sudden: Forget it? How can you forget it?
....................................
Without saying how Nikolai Malenkov was busy with this, let's go back to Rolls-Royce and the Fokker plane.
Chen Geng suddenly ran away to the Soviet Union, which made the Dutch and the British, especially the British, very angry.
In the eyes of Rolls-Royce's high-level leaders, Chen Geng's sudden trip to the Soviet Union at this time was undoubtedly to show Rolls-Royce his attitude in this way: to see who attaches more importance to this matter and who is more uncomposed.
And at this point, the Rolls-Royce executives, led by Simon Robertson and Patrick Hogan, had to admit that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable for them.
Just yesterday, Anthony Fokker called Simon Robertson in his personal capacity and told him one thing: The shareholders of Falkland-United Aviation Technology are inclined to agree to Chen Geng's condition, that is, after the expiration of this engine supply agreement, there will not be a new engine supply agreement between Rolls-Royce, and all the "TAY" series engines required by Fokker will be purchased from Chen Geng's Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Group.
Although these words were only spoken by Anthony Falk in his private capacity, Simon Robertson knew in his heart that it was not so much that Anthony Falk said these words to himself in a private capacity, but that Falkland-United Aviation Technologies informed Rolls-Royce of their decision in this way.
From the perspective of the chairman of the board of directors of Rolls-Royce Group, Simon Robertson was of course extremely angry at Fokker's approach, but from a personal point of view, Simon Robertson sadly found that he had no way to deal with Fokker's decision - Fernandez Chen had the means and strength to save the life of Fokker in distress, but Rolls-Royce couldn't do this.
