With Chen Geng's permission, the four of them did not hesitate at all, and immediately dialed the phone number of Guo Wenxiang's office after the meeting.

Before Wang Dazhi finished briefing on the situation, Guo Wenxiang, who already had a general understanding of this matter in his heart, suddenly became calm: Is there such a thing? We have the opportunity to sell our aircraft technology to a large American company?!

As a qualified politician, he suddenly realized that if this matter really became a matter of great significance. However, it was precisely because the impact of this incident was too great that Guo Wenxiang became more and more cautious, and he confirmed to Wang Dazhi in a deep voice: "Comrade Wang Dazhi, are you sure? Are you sure that you did not misunderstand what Mr. Chen Geng meant?"

Wang Dazhi knew that the stakes were very important, so he didn't dare to be sloppy, and replied in the same serious tone: "This is what Chairman Chen just said to us personally, at that time, I and Comrade Zhang Ying, Comrade Meng Haibo, and Comrade Huang Wenqing were all at the scene, and everyone heard it with their own ears, and I assure you that there is absolutely no misunderstanding." ”

After a brief pause, Wang Dazhi followed up and explained: "However, Chairman Chen also said that he and McDonnell Jr., chairman of McDonnell Douglas Aircraft Group, only reached such an intention, but the first step of the Long March has taken the first step, if you really want to cooperate, there are still many things to be done next." ”

"Good! good!"

Guo Wenxiang couldn't hold back his excitement anymore and applauded loudly.

If Wang Dazhi didn't say this, he might have to doubt and worry about it, but with Wang Dazhi's words, his heart suddenly stabilized: That's right, if this matter is finalized, then there is a problem.

When his heart was put down, Guo Wenxiang had more thoughts in his heart, he groaned slightly, and said to Wang Dazhi: "In this way, if you talk to your Chen Dong, just say that this matter is of great significance to our country, and we will fully support his ideas, if it is convenient for him, I hope to communicate with him in person." ”

It's not that Guo Wenxiang is not worried about Chen Geng, but the meaning behind this matter is too great, once this matter can really be done, it may even involve the level of national strategy, so he Guo Wenxiang is not cautious.

Wang Dazhi and others had already expected this possibility, and when they heard this, he immediately said: "Please rest assured, leader, I will immediately report your intention to our chairman." ”

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

Chen Geng was not surprised by the news that Guo Wenxiang wanted to see him, and even this was in his expectation, after Wang Dazhi reported to him the situation that Guo Wenxiang wanted to see, Chen Geng happily agreed, as for the specific time, Chen Geng asked Leilani Tiger to coordinate with Guo Wenxiang's secretary.

Guo Wenxiang is really very concerned about this matter, after some communication, he agreed with Chen Geng on the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, and set aside a full two hours for Chen Geng, in addition, Guo Wenxiang's secretary repeatedly told Leilani Taylor that this time is only a preliminary estimate, if necessary, Guo Wenxiang can free up a whole afternoon.

What surprised Chen Geng a little was that when he arrived at the Ministry of Aviation Industry, he found that there was another person in Guo Wenxiang's office, and this guy seemed to be a little familiar.

Seeing the surprised expression on Chen Geng's face, Guo Wenxiang immediately introduced Chen Geng: "Mr. Chen, I reported this situation to the leader yesterday, and the leader also attaches great importance to this matter. ”

I see!

I'll just say how do I think this guy is a little familiar, the reason for daring is here - Guo Wenxiang can be called "leader", his identity is about to come out, and he is named "D and national L guide" in the news.

Chen Geng nodded in understanding, and then stretched out his hand to Secretary Li: "Secretary Li, hello." ”

"Hello Mr. Chen," although the existence of this representative of Secretary Li is extremely respectful, but the whole person has no arrogance, and his posture is very right, and he said politely to Chen Geng while holding a hand with Chen Geng: "Before coming, the leader specially told me to say hello to you on his behalf." ”

"The leader is too polite," Chen Geng nodded: "Please also ask Secretary Li to help me greet the leader when I go back." (Don't dare to say it.) ）

"Don't worry," Secretary Li said, after a brief pause, he said to Chen Geng: "Mr. Chen, I came here today to listen to what is going on on behalf of the leaders, and you can talk to Minister Guo as you want, don't worry about me." ”

It can be seen from his words that this Secretary Li is very cautious to keep his distance from Chen Geng, but this is completely normal, after all, this Secretary Li is the eyes of a certain leader today, since he represents his own leader, he naturally has to be extra cautious in his words and deeds.

When Chen Geng heard this, he turned his head and glanced at Guo Wenxiang.

Guo Wenxiang nodded his head slightly, indicating that this was the case.

Chen Geng smiled, and he didn't take Secretary Li's words seriously.

They are all busy people, no one has much time to waste on the undoubted greetings, after a simple greeting, everyone sat down, after Guo Wenxiang's secretary sent a few cups of tea, Chen Geng took the initiative to open the topic: "Mr. Guo, Secretary Li, you both understand the general situation of this matter, right?"

Guo Wenxiang took over the conversation: "Comrade Wang Dazhi said in his report to me that the current Western civil aviation circles, for the choice of short- and medium-range narrow-body trunk aircraft, prefer Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 with wider fuselage width. Each row can accommodate 6 seats and use the wing crane engine scheme, I don't like McDonnell Douglas 5 seats per row and the structure of the tail crane engine, but because McDonnell Douglas has invested all the money in the development of the MD-12 aircraft, there is not much money for the development of a new generation of short- and medium-range narrow-body trunk aircraft, it just so happens that the F150 of COMAC is such a structure, so you are ready to persuade Mr. McDonald Jr. to introduce F150 technology and authorization from COMAC, right?"

"Basically," Chen Gengying said, "I would like to add that McDonnell Douglas can't afford to pay for the introduction of technology right now, and if this cooperation can be reached, the only way is to spread the technology licensing money evenly on each aircraft, and get it back in this way." ”

Guo Wenxiang and Secretary Li nodded together, indicating that they had understood the situation, and at the same time, Guo Wenxiang hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Mr. Chen, how much do you estimate the relevant technology transfer fees?"

"I estimate it to be roughly $500 million to $800 million. ”

"$5 to $800 million?!"

Guo Wenxiang and Secretary Li couldn't help but widen their eyes, obviously, this number surprised them - it was a positive surprise, roughly "can be sold for so much money?!".

Secretary Li seemed a little worried, he hesitated for a moment, and asked softly: "Mr. Chen, can you really sell it for 500 million to 800 million US dollars?" I don't question what you mean, it's ...... Isn't that a little too high?"

Although Guo Wenxiang didn't speak, the expression on his face also revealed the same meaning: Our Chinese people's things can also be sold for a lot of money?

Chen Geng was a little sad.

Over the years, although our country's export products are no longer energy, raw materials, but there is almost no high value-added things, to put it mildly, it is really "a car of shirts for a plane" level, now suddenly heard that they don't have to do anything, can be exchanged for hundreds of millions of dollars, everyone's first reaction is not to take it for granted, but to doubt themselves...... I've been poor for too long.

With a sigh of relief, Chen Geng explained to Guo Wenxiang and Secretary Li: "In 1986, when Airbus set up the A330 and A340 aircraft, the two 'one planes and two types' aircraft, the R&D cost was calculated to be 2.6 billion US dollars; last year, McDonnell Douglas announced that the research and development budget for the MD-12 passenger aircraft would be about 4 billion to 4.5 billion US dollars, and this year due to inflation, this figure has been adjusted to 4.3 billion to 4.8 billion US dollars by McDonnell Douglas due to inflation.

For aircraft manufacturers of the Boeing, Airbus and McDonnell Douglas, if they set up a project to develop a 150-seat short- and medium-range narrow-body mainline aircraft this year, the R&D cost will not be less than $1 billion at this year's price level, and McDonnell Donnell Doesnnell Doesn't need to spend $500 million to $800 million to get an aircraft that has passed CAAC certification, and then McDonnell Douglas only needs engine matching and FAA certification, do you think the price is expensive?"

Certainly not expensive!

Hearing Chen Geng calculate such an account, Secretary Li and Guo Wenxiang immediately felt that the asking price was not expensive at all.

"And for McDonnell Douglas, the focus doesn't stop there, the most important thing is that we have saved them a lot of valuable time," Chen Geng continued: "Hypothetically, let's say we have signed an agreement with McDonnell Dalwellall now, it will only take about a year and a half for McDonnell Douglas to be able to come up with a prototype for FAA airworthiness certification testing, and at most two and a half years, the first aircraft will be delivered to the customer."

And if McDonnell Douglas is allowed to do this project by itself, even if the pressure of funds is not considered, even if the entire R&D process, testing, and airworthiness certification process are all smooth, from the establishment of the project to the delivery of the first aircraft to the customer, how long will it take?"

Guo Wenxiang immediately asked, "How long?"

"Let's refer to the Airbus A320," Chen Geng said: "The Airbus A320 was officially approved in December 1983, began test flights in February 1987, completed the airworthiness certification in February of the following year and officially began to be delivered, and the whole time span is as long as 50 months...... And that's already the smoothest situation, and a little delay in any of the processes would have gone five years, and that extra two years would mean for an aircraft manufacturing company, especially one like McDonnell Douglas, which is losing market, what do you say?"
