Chapter 1026: The Pit Dug for McDonnell Douglas
"Don't be busy thanking me yet," Chen Geng said with a smile: "Maybe after you listen to my method, you have the mind to cut me with a knife." ”
"Haha......"
Little McDonald laughed: "Fernandez, you know, I don't care what your solution is, what will cost me, I just want this method to work, as long as this method is easy to use, it can make McDonnell Douglas survive well, I don't care about the rest!"
Also!
Chen Geng knows that for the current little McDonald, he lacks almost nothing, he is not short of money, in addition to McDonnell Douglas, he also has several private investment funds under his hands, and also holds shares in a number of companies and banks and other financial institutions, which can bring him a lot of dividends every year, and his wealth is enough for him and his family to live a rich life;
McDonnell Douglas was the world's largest manufacturer of military and civil aircraft until the mid-80s, and it wasn't until the mid-80s that McDonnell Douglas was gradually overtaken by Boeing;
He has no shortage of connections, and McDonald Jr. has too many acquaintances and friends in the White House, in Congress, in state governments and state legislatures......
Such a person who lacks nothing cares most about his own face - to put it nicely, it is his own dignity, so as long as Chen Geng can really help him reverse the current situation and completely suppress Boeing, for McDonald Jr., he is willing to pay no matter what the price is.
"OK, then it's decided," Chen Geng said: "When I have an idea here, I will tell you as soon as possible." ”
What little MacDonald was waiting for was Chen Geng's words!
Although Chen Geng didn't tell him what to do on the spot, with Chen Geng's words, little MacDonald felt at least half relieved: "Okay, I'll wait for your news." ”
"In addition, what are you going to do with the two airlines that have canceled the MD-80 order?"
"......" Chen Geng's words made McDonald Jr. stunned for a moment: "As an airline, of course they have the right to cancel the order......"
Of course, airlines have the right to cancel their own orders, and as long as the two sides follow the previous agreement between the two sides, the aircraft manufacturer has nothing to say except "we are very sorry", and it is not even good to take any drastic actions: if someone else cancels the order, you will have to take some drastic measures, and then who will dare to cooperate with you in the future? Isn't this tantamount to driving out those potential customers in the future?
"Don't talk nonsense," McDonald Jr. couldn't finish his words before Chen Geng rudely interrupted him: "You don't really think this matter is so simple, do you?
For McDonnell Douglas, at this sensitive moment, the sudden loss of an order for 32 MD-80s, the seriousness of the problem is simply equivalent to the removal of the load-bearing beams of the building, although the building may not collapse immediately, but the entire building has changed from the original ability to resist an eight-magnitude earthquake to even a four-magnitude earthquake is more than able to withstand it, if Boeing did not play some unsightly role in this matter, he did not believe that Chen Geng was killed.
What made Chen Geng wonder was why such a smart person as McDonald Jr. didn't realize this? Could it be that McDonald Jr.'s mentality was wrong?
“......”
Hearing Chen Geng's words, little MacDonald was silent, and after a moment, he opened his mouth in a low tone: "If this matter is really related to Boeing, I will do something." ”
"Hmm......" Chen Geng replied and said: "I suggest that you use more drastic measures, although it may lead to more serious consequences, but if you don't take drastic measures, maybe the consequences will be even more serious." ”
Little MacDonald on the phone didn't speak, but sighed silently.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Geng called Leilani Taylor in and instructed, "Help me find a reliable investigation company and go to 4V to investigate one thing......"
....................................
The reliable investigation company is indeed very reliable, except for the fact that the fee is expensive, everything else makes Chen Geng very satisfied, and the efficiency is very high, and it only took less than a week for Chen Geng to know that what he wanted to know was sent to the desk.
Seeing the results of this investigation, Chen Geng immediately dialed McDonald Jr....... Although it is now more than ten o'clock in the evening in the United States, Chen Geng believes that little MacDonald has not slept at this time.
"Mike, I'll tell you good news," Chen Geng said to McDonald Jr. as soon as the phone was connected: "I have found a company that is very likely to be a partner in your MD-12 project." ”
Hearing Chen Geng's words, little McDonald was immediately excited, and hurriedly asked, "Who?"
"It's a 4V Hanxiang company," Chen Geng said, "You should know, right?"
"Han Xiang?" McDonald Jr. frowned: "You mean that Han Xiang Company may invest in our MD-12 project?"
He is really no stranger to the 4V Hanxiang company, in the 4V area, the status of the Hanxiang company is equivalent to the AVIC Corporation, the production and assembly of UH-1 "Huey" general purpose helicopters, F-5E/F fighters, and the famous, once known as the pride of 4V IDF fighter is also from the Hanxiang company, from these places can be seen the company's strength in the aviation industry.
Because of the special relationship between the United States and 4V, McDonald Jr. is certainly no stranger to 4V and Hanxiang Company, but he is a little puzzled What does Chen Geng do when he mentions Hanxiang Company?
"Yes," Chen Geng responded, and said to McDonald Jr.: "Isn't the relationship between 4V and the mainland less tense than before, 4V is ready to reduce military spending and use more government finance to develop people's livelihood, so that 4V's huge military industry will have to be transformed, for 4V aviation industry enterprises, if they can cooperate with McDonnell Douglas, it will make their 'military and civilian' step more secure;
For McDonnell Douglas, Mike, you should know that the 4V aviation industry base is not weak, even better than Huaxia, but the cost is very low, if McDonnell Douglas can cooperate with 4V, it will be a win-win result.
The most important thing is that 4V is very rich, at least more than the mainland. ”
That's right!
Little MacDonald immediately reacted: How did I forget that I can also work with 4V.
As one of the largest airlines in Asia, McDonnell Douglas McDonnell has also dealt with airlines in 4V regions such as China Airlines......
"Do you think it's possible?!" said McDonald, Jr.
"It's a matter of people, but I think there is still a lot of hope for cooperation," Chen Geng said with a smile: "The 4V aviation industry is seeking transformation at the same time, holding a lot of money in hand, and your McDonnell Douglas has advanced technology, but lacks financial support, isn't this the basis for cooperation."
Of course, in the end, whether you cooperate and whether you can reach a cooperation agreement depends on what kind of conditions you McDonnell Douglas can give and whether you are satisfied with the environment in the 4V area, but as long as you are satisfied with the results of the investigation, with the influence of the U.S. government on 4V, Mike, as long as you mobilize your McDonnell Douglas energy in the government, how difficult do you think this can be?"
"You're right!" After listening to Chen Geng's analysis, Little MacDonald's breathing gradually became shorter: "We have the basis for cooperation, this is too important, as for the rest, we can talk about it slowly." ”
As for the question of whether the cooperation between the two sides can be achieved, McDonald Jr. feels that Chen Geng's words are very reasonable: with the degree of dependence and obedience of the 4V to the United States, as long as they mobilize their influence in the political circles, even if the leaders of the 4V are not happy, what can they do?
If you are not happy, you can only hold back!
Listening to the heavy breathing of little MacDonald, Chen Geng was secretly happy in his heart: he was hooked!
In order to make this bait look more real, Chen Geng said to McDonald Jr. again: "Since you also think it is good, then I suggest that you better go around the 4V, investigate and understand the situation, there is nothing more reliable than what you have seen with your own eyes; ”
Once, when the cooperation between Hanxiang and McDonnell Douglas was the most important, a certain bastard named Zhengnan directly rejected the cooperation on the grounds that "this cooperation did not obtain McDonnell Douglas's military technology, and this investment is not cost-effective", and also announced the complete end of the MD-12 project.
But if you carefully analyze this matter, you can know that the bastard Zhengnan's move to stop at the critical moment is really because this cooperation failed to bring 4V military aircraft related technology? You know, at the beginning of the contact between the two sides, Hanxiang's purpose is to build 4V into Toulouse and Seattle in the East through the cooperation of this project, so what role Boeing plays in this, it is very intriguing—— But it doesn't matter, anyway, Chen Geng understands that even if he has his own reminder, the cooperation between McDonnell Douglas and Hanxiang Company will not be successful.
But little MacDonald didn't know that Chen Geng's kindness was still hiding so much dirt, and he said to Chen Geng gratefully: "That's right! This matter must be hidden from those bastards of Boeing as much as possible, and it can be hidden from one ......day at a time."
Listening to the gritted teeth in McDonald's tone, Chen Geng's heart moved, and he asked McDonald Jr. tentatively: "So, those 32 MD-80s are really related to Boeing?"
"It's not just those 32 MD-80s," McDonald Jr. said hatefully: "I've investigated it clearly, the reason why Aerolíneas Argentinas and TAP Airlines decided not to buy our MD-11 is also a damn Boeing trick!"
McDonald Jr. already hated Boeing to death.
"Okay," Chen Geng shrugged: "I knew it was so!"
After a pause, Chen Geng continued: "I suggest you go to the 4V area as soon as possible to understand the situation, your current situation at McDonnell Douglas can no longer be delayed." ”
As for whether MacDonald Jr. will retaliate against Boeing's approach, Chen Geng didn't bother to ask - anyway, even if he asked, McDonald Jr. couldn't say.
"I will," McDonald Jr. snorted twice and said confidently, "waiting for my good news." ”
........................
McDonald Jr. asked Chen Geng to wait for his good news, and the good news soon came: I heard that COMAC was preparing to develop a new generation of large gas turbines based on the RB211 engine they had mastered, and Harbin Steam Turbine, which has the strongest technical strength in the field of steam turbines in China, was the first to respond - Xu Dazhuang, the factory director, personally led the team to COMAC to understand the specific situation.
Such treatment is definitely worthy of the description of "highly valued".
Since Harbin Steam Turbine attaches so much importance to this cooperation with COMAC, Chen Geng is naturally cautious.
