Chapter 987 Bet on the wrong treasure, the consequences are very serious

Just when David Graziosi felt a chill in his neck and Chen Geng stared at him like a butcher looking at where the knife came from, Chen Geng continued: "Is your financial problem solved?"

"Huh?!"

David Graziosi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Chen Geng to suddenly mention this issue, but after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly replied: "This...... Not ...... yet"

Originally, Allison Power's financial situation was not very good, and seeking financing from Chen Geng and Rolls-Royce was the best way Allison Power's management could think of, but the problem is that this matter has now become like this, to put it bluntly, before the matter is resolved, Rolls-Royce has become quite scruple about investing in Allison Power: Who dares to guarantee that Chen Geng will not have any more moths?

"How much is your funding gap, I voted. ”

Chen Geng's tone was firm and irrefutable.

"Uh...... But ...... "I didn't expect Chen Geng to say this, David Graziosi was stunned for a moment, but thinking of the previous agreement with Rolls-Royce, David Graziosi had to bite the bullet and say to Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, we already have an agreement with Rolls-Royce......"

"Are you sure?"

Without waiting for David Graziossi to finish speaking, Chen Geng interrupted him and asked rhetorically.

"Uh...... This ......"

David Graziosi didn't know what to say, of course he wanted to say "I'm sure, I'm very sure", but Chen Geng's attitude was already obvious: I didn't plan to reason with you.

Then again, who let this incident happen because Allison motivated to die himself, if it wasn't for Allison motivated to die himself, how could things have come to this point?

David Graziossi's mouth twitched twice, but he still didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction, and after a few seconds, he obediently lowered his head: "I...... I will report back to the Board of Directors ......"

Chen Geng didn't bother to care about David Graziossi's last stubbornness, he nodded, and then offered the second condition: "Also, I know that your Allison Power is considering selling the aviation power business segment, and I don't embarrass you, if the conditions are equal, I have the right of first refusal." ”

David Graziosi was inexplicably relieved in his heart.

In fact, things have developed here, whether it is Allison Power or David Graziosi has already understood in their hearts, what Chen Geng's plan is, think about it, from the fact that he has successively established Huaxia Commercial Aviation Group, introduced the "tay" series and RB211 series engines from Rolls-Royce in the United Kingdom, and introduced the Fokker F100 from the Dutch Falkland-United Aviation Technology Company, it can be seen that Fernandez Chen covets the aviation field.

Since Allison Dynamics is indeed interested in selling its aviation power business, and Mr. Chen has promised to give "priority under equal conditions", what should Allison Dynamics' shareholders not be satisfied with?

David Graziosi nodded again, indicating that he would report Chen Geng's intentions to the board of directors.

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

Allison Power's board of directors couldn't make a decision for a while, and Chen Geng was not in a hurry, he was more curious about what decisions would be made on the Fokker plane's side.

Speaking of these companies in Europe, many of them can be described as "the heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than paper", especially the Falkland-United Aviation Technology Company, the "sea coachman", after all, the ancestors were once wide, and the per capita income is higher than that of the Americans, so in many cases, the Dutch are very proud, and even look at the Americans with a feeling of "looking at poor relatives in the countryside".

But on the other hand, what is the situation in the Netherlands, we all know in our hearts, the ancestors are too broad means that they are now a poor and sour people, although the per capita income is very high, but the national strength is not to mention compared with the United States, even compared with their European relatives, this gap between the top and bottom, so that the Dutch take some meaningless things very seriously in many cases, this time, Chen Geng also thought that the situation might be similar, maybe they would have to wait for the reality to slap the Dutch in the face a few times, they would react, but the reality of the situation was slightly different from Chen Geng's guess, less than a week, MarcyM. Verhagen appeared in front of Chen Geng again.

Instead of selling it, Massim Felhagen asked Chen Geng directly: "Mr. Fernandez, if, I mean if, if we agree to the government's conditions and allow Deutsche Aerospace to buy our shares, what do you think will happen to the future of Fokker aircraft?"

In 1987, the West German government commissioned Daimler-Benz to reorganize the German aerospace industry, and in 1989, the German Aerospace Company was formed, in addition to the largest shareholder Daimler Benz, the company's shareholders include the power giant MTU, Germany's largest aircraft manufacturer, regional aircraft manufacturer: Dornier and AEG and so on.

Chen Geng did not answer this question, but asked Massim Verhagen rhetorically: "Speaking of which, just a few years ago, Germany's MBB operated a project similar to your Fokker F100 and F70, which is ......."

Before Chen Geng's words were finished, Massim Felhagen couldn't help but say, "MPC-75!"

"That's right, it's MPC-75," Chen Geng nodded, feeling a little emotionally in his heart: the familiar MPC-75. Throwing that trace of nostalgia behind his head, Chen Geng continued: "Judging from the data released by MBB, MPC-75 is an aircraft, and it can even be said to be a good aircraft comparable to your Fokker F100, I heard that the width of the fuselage of MPC-75 is almost equivalent to that of Boeing 737, just to avoid irritating the Americans, MBB designed the seats of MPC-75 to be more spacious, using a 3+2 seat layout...... Masim, you should know your German neighbor better, why did such a good plane end up being aborted?"

“......”

Massim Felhagen stopped talking, and was replaced by deep thought.

Yes, in 1987, MBB had already come up with the MPC-75 program, and as an "old relative", Fokker Aircraft actually knew more about MPC-75 and the ambitions of the Germans, for example, from the very beginning, MBB made a long-term plan for MPC-75: MPC-75 is divided into three aircraft, namely the "short-axle version" MPC-75-100, the "standard version" MPC-75-200 and the "long-axis version" MPC-75-300.

According to the plan of MBB. The fuselage length of the "long-axis version" of the MPC-75-300 should reach about 37 meters, which is even a little longer than the fuselage length of the Boeing 737-400, which is the fuselage length of a proper narrow-body trunk aircraft.

So the question is, why is it that the MPC-75, which looks so good, is now barely audible?

"Why?" Massim Ferhagen couldn't help but ask Chen Geng.

"You should know the reason very well," Chen Geng said: "Since World War II, the Germans have launched many attempts to large aircraft, but why did all the efforts and attempts of the Germans end up in failure, except for the small Dornier 228 and Dornier 328?"

Looking at Massim Ferhagen, Chen Geng said word by word: "Don't forget, Germany was a defeated country in World War II! There are still dozens of US military bases stationed on German territory! Germany's every move is under the surveillance of the Americans, and the German army is not so much an army as a group of civil servants who go to work and leave work at the same time.

Do you still think it would be a good thing for Fokker to be acquired by the German Aerospace Company?"

Massim Verhagen's face turned pale!

He looked at Chen Geng, his lips trembling and said, "Mr. Fernandez, you mean that if we allow the Germans to take a stake, we will also end up with the same fate as the MPC-75?"

"It seems that you still don't believe it very much?" Looking at Massim Ferhagen with a bit of struggle in his expression, Chen Geng said jokingly: "If you don't believe it, you can try." ”

Massim Felhagen suddenly closed his mouth tightly, not daring to speak again.

Seeing that Massim Verhagen was no longer the hardest, Chen Geng smiled secretly in his heart.

In fact, after World War II, the United States controlled the development of the German aviation industry more tightly than many people imagined!

For example, the Dornier 228 is a 19-seat light regional airliner, and the Dornier 32 is a 32-seat regional airliner.

Finally, an MPC-75 project was made, and finally it ended without a problem;

After the failure of the MPC-75 project, the Germans were not reconciled and began to fight their old relatives: the Dutch, through lobbying the Dutch royal family, finally succeeded in obtaining 51% of the shares of the Dutch Falkland-United Aviation Technology Company, in fact, completely controlling Fokker Company, making Fokker a subsidiary of German Aerospace Company.

But what about the end result?

If the Falkland-United Aviation Technologies company could barely maintain itself before, then after being acquired by the Germans, Fokker's living environment suddenly deteriorated sharply, even if the Germans desperately tried to transfuse it, so that in 1996, even the blood transfusion of German Aerospace could not save Fokker, and Fokker had to file for bankruptcy and collapse.

Chen Geng still doesn't believe it, and now he has his own reminder, Fokker still dares to bet on the Germans?
