Without answering this question directly, Chen Geng did not frown, and asked He Kai: "Mr. He, if I remember correctly, the engine used by Yunqi is a turboprop-5A, right?"

"It's the turboprop 5A-1," He Kai didn't quite understand why Chen Geng suddenly said this, but this did not prevent him from immediately explaining this: "The power of the 5A-1 has increased from 2550 horsepower of 5A to 2900 horsepower now, and the power reserve is much stronger." ”

"Oh," Chen Geng replied, and then asked rhetorically: "What about the fuel consumption of this engine? Well, I'm talking about the comparison with the Rolls-Royce 'Dart' MK550 and Pratt Whitney Canadian PW125B series, which are currently the most used in the world's 50-seat propeller regional aircraft. ”

Before Chen Geng's words were finished, He Kai's face turned into a big red cloth.

In terms of absolute power performance, the turboprop 5A-1 is indeed better than Rolls-Royce "Dart" MK550 and Pratt Whitney Canada's PW125B, but in the field of civil aircraft, whether to choose a certain engine can not only look at the power performance of the engine, compared with power, fuel consumption level, noise level, engine life is actually more important, in these two points the turboprop 5 series is too far behind.

......After two sentences, He Kai forcibly defended: "There is indeed a gap between the fuel consumption level of the turboprop 5A-1 and the turboprop engine of the same level at the international advanced level, but you don't need to use foreign exchange to buy the turboprop 5A-1." ”

Chen Geng: "......"

Well, the reason for not spending forex is really powerful!

However, this also reminded Chen Geng......

"Mr. He, is it a little too early for us to talk about this issue now? Whether Fokker is willing to help Xifei with this, we are still uncertain. ”

"This ...... Hehe......" He Kai rubbed his hands, his expression was simply obscene: "I know that Fokker is now developing F100 and F50 models at the same time, but Mr. Chen, the relationship between you and Fokker is not ordinary, this ......"

Only then did Chen Geng understand He Kai's little abacus: Good guy, do you really treat me as a free laborer?

Without waiting for He Kai to finish speaking, Chen Geng refused without hesitation: "Mr. He, you look up to me, I don't have such a lot of energy in Fokker Company...... Well, I'll help you ask, no problem, but for the specific price, you Xifei will go and negotiate with Fokker by yourself. As for the cooperation between us, we will talk about it when you and Fokker have almost talked about the price. ”

This result was not what He Kai wanted the most, but it was good, and he nodded: "Okay, then trouble you, Mr. Chen." ”

Speaking of this, He Kai paused, and suddenly asked Chen Geng seemingly inadvertently: "Mr. Chen, let me ask, how long will it take for your company to achieve the complete localization of MK650, and what is the approximate price after full localization?"

Well?

Chen Geng's heart moved, and he also replied casually: "It's hard to say when complete localization will be realized, it depends on the situation of relevant domestic cooperative enterprises, but if everything goes well, within five years from now, the localization rate of 70% to 80% can basically be achieved." ”

"A localization rate of 70 to 80 percent?" Didn't the contract you signed with Rolls-Royce say that it would be completely localized within five years?" He Kai seemed a little surprised by Chen Geng's answer.

"Five years of complete localization?hehe......" Chen Gengyi smiled inexplicably, and asked He Kai rhetorically: "Mr. He, the 'Spey' MK202 introduced by Xifei also said that it was from five years of localization, and from the end of 75 years to the official signing of the contract to the present, it has been almost nine years, what is the localization rate of Xifei's 'Spey'?"

He Kai's face turned green in an instant: Can you not open which pot and which pot not to mention?!

Speaking of the localization of "Spey" MK202, it is simply a handful of snot and tears, the original contract was written that within 3 years, Huaxia will use the materials, blanks, finished products and accessories provided by Rolls-Royce to copy the "Spey" MK202 engine with the same quality level as the original Rolls-Royce factory; within 5 years, to achieve complete domestic substitution, but now almost nine years have passed, how many "Spey" MK202 engines have been produced by the huge Xifei Group?

Four!

Yes, it's four!

These four "Spey" are two batches of four "Spey" for testing that were copied by the Xifei Engine Factory in the second half of 1979 with materials, blanks, finished products and accessories provided by Rolls-Royce, and since then, Xifei has never produced a "Spey" MK202.

A total of four engines were produced, and it is naturally impossible to talk about the localization rate.

"With the current production technology and process level of domestic aviation industry supporting enterprises, I can make the 'tay' MK650 achieve a localization rate of 780% within five years, I can already smile secretly, as for the price, well, the price of a single engine is about 2.2 million to 2.6 million RMB," Chen Geng said this, the topic changed, and asked He Kai: "Mr. He, what are you ......?"

The implication is that if you have anything to say, you will say it directly.

He Kai was also very neat, and did not sell Guanzi: "Then I will say it directly, Mr. Chen, can you sell us a few engines? Of course, we only pay RMB." ”

Chen Geng's heart trembled: "! His face was flat: "You are talking about MK650?"

"It's definitely the MK650. ”

"How many?"

"4 units, but it is not excluded that they will be added later. ”

The feeling in Chen Geng's heart became stronger and stronger, but this did not prevent him from continuing to pretend to be stupid: "Yes, we have a batch of original Rolls-Royce MK650s in our warehouse, when do you want them?"

"If everything goes well, next month should be about the same," He Kai gave a vague time, and then asked: "By the way, Mr. Chen, I heard that you are going to develop an engine with greater thrust on the basis of the 'tay' MK650 engine next?"

"Well, there is this plan," holding back the excitement in his heart, Chen Geng nodded: "It's the MK850 with an 85KN thrust level, the MK1110 with a 110KN thrust level, and the MK1410 with a 140KN level in the long term, and now we are communicating with Rolls-Royce." ”

"That's right...... Hehehe...... After that, maybe we have a broader space for cooperation. ”

Looking at He Kai who was smirking at "hehe......", I don't know why, Chen Geng always felt that this guy's smile was a little obscene and proud.

....................................

After sending off the visiting group, the interim board of directors of COMAC Group was immediately convened.

There was only one agenda item for discussion in the interim board of directors: to seek international financing for the development of two modifications of the "tay" series turbofan engines, the "TAY" MK850 and MK1110, and to pursue the "tay" MK1410 turbofan engine project at the same time, if conditions are met.

It's all just going through the motions.

After it was determined that certain British interest groups were actively seeking to re-privatize Rolls-Royce, the top management, who feared a long night's dreams, gave instructions to give full support to others other than funding.

To put it bluntly, it is "as long as you don't need money, you can say anything else".

In this context, it took less than two hours for the board of directors to approve the issue proposed by Chen Geng, and even the financing issue was "carte blanche entrusted to Mr. Chen Geng, chairman of the board of directors", which means to put it bluntly, as long as the conditions for foreign capital that Chen Geng is looking for are not excessively outrageous, even if Chen Geng puts some of the benefits into his own bag, the Chinese government will admit it.

But Chen Geng is interested in these two jujubes?

Chen Genghui ruined his image for this two jujubes?

Joke!

If that's the case, I'm a little too worthless.

While asking Ji Shengcheng to help him contact a bank that was willing to provide a loan, Chen Geng immediately flew to England to negotiate with Rolls-Royce to immediately launch a new model of the "TAY" series of engines.

In fact, there is nothing to talk about, helping Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Industry Group to develop a larger thrust version of the "TAY" series of engines was written into the cooperation contract between the two parties, but the documents signed before were one version after another, and Chen Geng's current requirement is to put three versions together.

"Sir, I don't care how difficult it is, I only have two requirements, first, the price must be reasonable, and second, the development of all three models must start at the same time, and it must be completed within 30 months. Speaking of this, Chen Geng's tone changed: "Of course, sir, I know this makes you a little embarrassed, but we all know that the day Rolls-Royce is privatized is the day you leave the chairmanship of Rolls-Royce, and those bastards will definitely kick you away without hesitation." ”

"What the hell!"

Sir Rao Ralph Robbins had always demanded himself as a true gentleman and nobleman, but at this moment, he could not help but burst into a foul language.

No way, Sir Ralph Robbins knows very well that what Chen Geng said is true, as the chairman of the board of directors of Rolls-Royce Company sent by the British government, he must be the first person to be driven away by those damn bastards after snatching Rolls-Royce, and at this point, he can't have any luck.

"Yes, those guys are a bunch of real bastards and robbers!" Chen Geng echoed: "In that case, then why don't you help my old friend more within a reasonable range?"

Oh, by the way, sir, remember my promise: if you retire to my company, I will give you an increase of £100,000 a year on top of the agreed annual salary!"

"Another 100,000 pounds?"

Sir Ralph Robbins' eyes widened a little: the annual salary that Fernandes had promised him was £250,000, and with the addition of £100,000, that would be £350,000......

The 100,000 pounds instantly knocked down Ralph Robbins, and in a moment, he had already made a decision: Go to the special mother, since Lao Tzu will definitely be driven away, with an annual salary of 350,000 pounds, Lao Tzu still cares about your death?!
