Statham, Lalefort and other irons who followed Chen Geng at the earliest were really anxious, and they didn't care that the people from the Yvchenko Design Bureau were on the side, so they dragged Chen Geng aside, lowered their voices and said urgently: "Boss, do you really want to fly the MiG-29?"

"Boss, you can't fly!"

"That's right, boss, you can't fly, the MiG-29 is the most advanced fighter of the Soviet Union now, after you fly, in case the Soviets arrest you on the grounds that you 'steal Soviet military secrets'......"

"That's it, boss, let's take a step back, even if the Soviets let you fly, but do you think you can hide the MiG-29 from the United States? When the military comes to you and invites you to provide some characteristics ......of the MiG-29 or something, what will you do?"

Everyone is gossiping, and there is only one core demand: no MiG-29.

It was Chen Geng, who listened to everyone's words with a smile, and then slowly asked: "Why are you so sure that the Soviet Union will definitely let me fly the MiG-29?"

“......”

A few people, you look at me, I look at you, they are all stunned.

After a while, Kelly Hicks muttered, "That...... Didn't Mr. Trotsky, boss, say that your request has been reported, and that the Soviets have not explicitly refused...... According to normal logic, the first time you ask to fly the MiG-29, they should explicitly refuse you......"

"Yes, yes......"

Statham, Lalefort and others immediately nodded wildly, and extremely agreed with Kelly Hicks's statement: The MiG-29 is the most advanced and most representative fighter in the Soviet Union that the Soviet Air Force and the Territorial Defense Force have just begun to equip...... Are you dying?

Chen Geng smiled, he said confidently and with great certainty: "Don't worry, the Soviets will not let me have a chance to contact the MiG-29." ”

Belch......

How does this say?

Why was the boss so sure that the Soviets would not let him get his hands on the MiG-29?

But if the Soviets wouldn't let the boss get their hands on their MiG-29, why would they give such an ambiguous and hopeful answer?

Kelly Hicks, Statham, and Lallafort, you look at me, I look at you, and I don't understand why your boss said that.

Chen Geng said quietly: "When we are fishing, we are also the fish that others want to catch......

When we're fishing, we're also the fish that others want to catch?!

Originally......

So!

After all, Kelly Hicks and the others have been following Chen Geng for so long, and they are extremely smart, if they weren't frightened by Chen Geng's desire to fly MiG-29, they wouldn't have thought of this, and now they were reminded by Chen Geng, they immediately realized the problem...... Now it seems that it is difficult to say who is the fish and who is the fisher.

Looking at the sudden appearance of several people, Chen Geng waved his hand: "Okay, go back, don't think too much about it now." ”

It's useless to think too much, just wait for the Soviet government to send someone to contact you.

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

Sure enough, the Soviet government sent people very quickly.

The rank is not low, it is Nikolai Malenkov, deputy director of the Military-Industrial Affairs Committee under the Presidium of the Council of Ministers, who is in charge of the aviation industry.

Nikolai Malenkov didn't go around in circles with Chen Geng, after a few simple greetings, looking at Chen Geng, Nikolai Malenkov looked like "I already understood what you meant", and said to Chen Geng meaningfully: "Mr. Fernandez, you have a full set of RB211 engine patents, technology and production materials, you deliberately revealed it to us, right?"

Maozi is Maozi, and I don't know anything about greetings.

Of course, it was deliberately revealed to the Soviet side, but Chen Geng naturally couldn't admit it, he looked at Nikolai Malenkov with a confused face, and asked strangely: "Why did I deliberately reveal it to you......?" Don't you know that the cooperation between COMAC and Rolls-Royce is a normal and open business cooperation?"

The expression on Nikolai Malenkov's face suddenly froze: "......"

Yes, you say I deliberately revealed it to you, but the question is, why did I deliberately disclose it to you?

Also, this kind of public thing, which has been widely reported in the media, you don't know about it, and now you are still asking me?

This is what your Soviet Union was capable of in terms of intelligence gathering?

Although Chen Geng didn't say a word of these words, Nikolai Malenkov saw clearly through Chen Geng's eyes: this bastard, he is mocking himself.

Chen Geng looked at Nikolai Malenkov with a smile: That's right, I'm mocking you, I'm mocking you, what's the matter? Don't think what you mean by what you said, don't you just want to take the lead and press me in momentum?

Send you two words: hehe......

“...... Well,"

Nikolai Malenkov took a deep breath, and a smile suddenly appeared on his previously serious face: "Then Mr. Fernández, in this case, can we cooperate?"

It's all a means of negotiation, and since this means of negotiation does not work, then it is a different method.

Angry?

What's that?

Chen Geng raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?"

"How about you secretly provide us with some information about the RB211 engine, and we allow you to purchase an L-38 trainer with weapons systems and sensitive military equipment removed, and provide you with the necessary accessories for maintenance?"

Chen Geng looked at Nikolai Malenkov with wide eyes, and said in disbelief: "Mr. Malenkov, not to mention that when we introduced the technology and patents related to the RB211 engine, we had signed the legal document that 'relevant information shall not be transferred to a third party or disclosed to a third party', just say that you mentioned this condition......

Are you a fool to me?

Or do you think that my love for the L-39 trainer has surpassed everything, and I would make such an irrational move for the sake of the L-39?" Glancing at Nikolai Malenkov with disdain, Chen Geng said: "Do you really think that it is a difficult thing for me to get an active fighter with the weapon system removed?"

Bottom line: Are you stupid to me?

But after listening to Chen Geng's words, Nikolai Malenkov's heart was completely put back in his stomach.

At this point, he had already determined in his heart that as long as the conditions or price given by the Soviet Union were suitable, the legal document that "relevant materials shall not be transferred to a third party or disclosed to a third party" will be a piece of waste paper wiped off in the eyes of this guy in front of him.

Since it can be exchanged, it can be discussed.

"So ......"

Nikolai Malenkov suddenly leaned forward, looked at Chen Geng and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Fernandez, what kind of conditions do we need to have a chance to cooperate?"

Chen Geng smiled, and with a light move of Tai Chi pusher, he pushed back the trick sent by Nikolai Malenkov: "This is to ask you, Mr. Malenkov, what kind of conditions is the Soviet Union willing to come up with?"

Want me to speak on my own?

First of all, show your sincerity and listen to whether it is "sincere" enough.

Nikolai Malenkov secretly gritted his teeth.

When the two sides talked about this, Nikolai Malenkov already understood in his heart that the Soviet Union wanted to get what it wanted most, and of course there was a chance, but with the current state of diplomatic relations between China and the Soviet Union and between the Soviet Union and the West, it was impossible not to bleed.

As for directly threatening Chen Geng's personal safety?

This is ridiculous, not to mention whether the Soviet Union lost Chen Geng, a liaison who has such a great influence in the United States and in China, let's talk about his commercial energy, from May to today, Fernandez Chen has shipped more than 300,000 tons of various food, medicine, textiles and other light industrial products to the Soviet Union.

Is this just 300,000 tons of various light industrial materials?

No!

It's fate!

Today, in 1987, the Soviet Union was already strained in the supply of social goods, especially the supply of light industrial products related to the daily life of the population, and Fernandez Chen's dealings with the Soviet Union helped the Soviet government to a large extent alleviate the lack of light industrial supplies.

Once the Soviet military or the military-industrial system tried to put Fernandez Chen under house arrest in the Soviet Union in a "retaining" way, the Soviet government department was the first to dare to fight with these military leaders: You are so bullish, then you will find a way to get these light industrial products that Chen Geng does not provide to Lao Tzu.

What else could Nikolai Malenkov do when such timid and hard methods simply do not work?

“...... Well,"

After a short silence, Nikolai Malenkov gritted his teeth and finally made a condition on behalf of the Soviet government: "The Soviet Union can set aside a forest farm in the Far East near China and hand it over to you for logging, well, the area is not less than 700 square kilometers, and you only need to pay a certain contract fee every year, how about it?"

A 700-square-kilometre forest farm......

That's an area of 20 kilometers by 35 kilometers......

It is indeed very tempting, Chen Geng does not know the situation of forestry, and does not know how much such an area of forest farm can be worth, but referring to the loss of the Daxinganling fire that has just been extinguished, the burned area of the Daxinganling is 9 million acres (the real Daxinganling fire, the burned area is 18 million acres), which is equivalent to about 72,800 square kilometers, and the direct property loss is more than 250 million RMB.

700 square kilometers is equivalent to about 1% of the fire area of the Great Xing'an Mountains, that is, about 25 million RMB, Lao Maozi gave this condition is indeed very sincere, and with the current economic development of China, these high-quality timber from the Soviet Union as long as they pass the border port, will be sold out immediately......

Wrong!

Logging and overheating are two different things.

In the case of felling, seedlings must be replanted at the same time as felling, and the cost of transportation, labor and other aspects must be considered, so calculated in this way, it may not be the net profit of ** million RBM.

In order to be able to see the information of the RB211 engine, Lao Maozi is willing to pay ** million, which can be regarded as quite sincere, but Chen Geng is very happy: This ** million earns too hard!

Waving his hand, Chen Geng said, "Forget this, it's too troublesome." ”

Nikolai Malenkov: "......"

He really wanted to hit someone: such a big sum of money, you didn't even look at it?!

Chen Geng also gave up: Since Lao Maozi's brain circuit really can't understand what he wants, it's better to speak by himself.

He pursed his lips and said to Nikolai Malenkov: "Mr. Malenkov, there are only two things I want. ”

"You say. ”

"One is the AI-25 engine of the Ivchenko Design Bureau," Chen Geng said, "I want a full set of technical information and production authorization for the AI-25 engine." ”

AI-25 is a very good, maximum thrust of 1700 kg of twin-rotor turbofan engine, the overall performance is not even inferior to the American Garrett TFE-731 engine, which is understandable, if it is not for the stability and reliability of the AI-25 engine is extremely good, it will not be selected as the engine of the L-39 trainer aircraft.

In addition to being used as a trainer power, the AI-25 is also extremely widely used in the field of civil aviation, and it is also the most produced civil aircraft in the Soviet Union: the queen engine of the Yak-40, the total production of the Yak-40 exceeds 1,200 units, and one aircraft needs 3 engines, including spare engines, the Yak-40 alone needs at least 4,000 engines.

It can be said that the AI-25 has achieved the forefront of Soviet aircraft engines in terms of reliability and fuel economy.

Chen Geng has been coveting this level of power system for a long time, if he finds a way to improve the fuel economy and reduce noise of the AI-25, this is a very good power system of a small jet business jet, and now, he has finally caught the opportunity.

"Information and authorization of the AI-25 engine?" Nikolai Malenkov frowned.

As the deputy director of the Soviet Military-Industrial Affairs Committee in charge of the aviation industry, he is certainly no stranger to the AI-25 engine, so it is natural to wonder why Chen Geng fell in love with this engine: although the performance of this engine is good, after all, where is the thrust, what does he want this engine to do?

Although I don't understand, although this engine is also old enough (it was officially put into production in 1967, it has been 20 years), although Nikolai Malenkov felt that the organization could agree to Fernández Chen's conditions, Nikolai Malenkov's answer was still very cautious: "I can't answer your question yet, but I will bring your request back and hand it over to the organization for discussion...... What is your second condition, Mr. Fernández?"

Chen Geng said with a smile: "Isn't your Soviet Union discussing the development of a new advanced jet trainer?"

Nikolai Malenkov instantly became vigilant: "What do you want to do?!"
