Chapter 584: New Flying Plane
"Hu Wenhai, the chairman of ST Group, Mr. Hu Wenhai?"
Wall was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "If Mr. Hu is willing to come forward, Grumman can ......"
"No, Mr. Hu doesn't intend to make Grumman pay extra costs. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Russell shook his head, interrupting Wall's self-righteousness.
There is no doubt that there is a very, very close cooperative relationship between Hu Wenhai and Grumman, which is also one of the directions for Grumman to gain benefits if he can strengthen the ties between the two sides.
Having tasted the sweetness in the biopharmaceutical industry, Pfizer changed its name to Umbrella Corporation, in which Grumman held an absolute majority stake. After five years of fermentation, the little blue pill launched by the Umbrella Company has already sold its products all over the world and has become the most important economic pillar of the Umbrella Company and Grumman.
In the second year of 1988, the Umbrella Company produced at least 600 million small blue pills, and the market plateaued. The resulting gross profit is as high as $1.5 billion.
With an annual income of $1.5 billion at the end of the eighties, this figure is fully enough to support the sale of Grumman for a good price in the United States of America.
On the other hand, the alliance formed with Hu Wenhai because of patent issues is closer than the good glue of the brothers.
Today's Grumman not only has the courage to stand with Hu Wenhai as a co-spy, but if Hu Wenhai wants to withdraw the patent authorization, he will have the madness of the Marine Corps Red Deer psychopathic gunman.
It's all about the blue and quiet world!
It has almost become the most politically correct slogan within Grumman.
Hu Wenhai did not dare to withdraw the authorization, and Grummen could only run all the way west on the road of co-spying.
Therefore, as long as Hu Wenhai can be grasped more firmly in his hands, and there is only a little risk, Grummen will not take it into account at all.
In the end, the project fails, which means that a small amount of the expatriate employee's salary is lost. On the contrary, if Wall can earn Hu Wenhai's favor, the board of directors of the year-end bonus will give him a big red envelope.
Hu Wenhai naturally knew that Grumman's favor was not easy to take, and he would give up some points here and there, and when the patent licensing agreement was revised in 1994, he might have to suffer a big loss.
Russell naturally understands the relationship, and it is of course best to let Hu Wenhai ask for personal favors. But this favor is too precious, and there are other solutions to the matter.
"Mr. Hu thinks that it is really not the right thing to let Grumman take risks beyond the contract. โ
Wall could no longer hold back the expression on his face at this time, and when he heard Russell's words, he hurriedly waved his hand and said anxiously: "No, no, Grumman is very willing to take these additional risks. After all, we're partners, right? Our goal is to get the project done, not to be risk-conscious......"
Poofโโ
Wu Daguan was a little dumbfounded by Wall's transformation, and Wu Lao, who was good at research, really didn't have much comprehension of these twists and turns in the mall.
In an instant, what he said before was scolded back by Wall, how could the Americans themselves move this set of theories out in the blink of an eye.
And Xifei, who was obviously in a lot of trouble, was reserved instead, and even rushed to take the problem on himself?
It's not that Wu Lao can't understand it, it's that this world is changing too fast!
"No, Mr. Wall, Xifei is a Chinese company with an international perspective. When it comes to contracts, we always have to follow the terms and conditions absolutely. Since Grumman has a different opinion, of course we have to respect ......"
"We have no opinion!" Wall hurriedly denied loudly: "No, no opinion! I think the previous contract has been very satisfactory......
At the end of the day, Wall's desire to change the contract was based on business considerations under normal circumstances.
What is the status of this joint venture in Xifei? It is an investment fund of a subsidiary of the Heavy Industrial Power Import and Export Corporation, in which the Leather Bag Company participates, while the Heavy Industrial Mouth Company is a peripheral enterprise of the ST Group and an extension of the Xinke Aero Engine Research Institute, which belongs to the "miscellaneous army." Wu Daguan, the director of the Aviation Research Institute, served as only one executive director in this area, and Wu Daguan did not have a special status in the entire Academy of Sciences, which is a research institute under the new science group......
All in all, from Wall's point of view, this joint venture in preparation is too far away for Hu Wenhai.
The asymmetry of information between the two sides made him not know that the localization of pandas, the project that Hu Wenhai was most concerned about, had settled in Xifei.
Such a so-called "leather bag joint venture" is the most critical chess piece of Hu Wenhai's strategic deployment of Xinke Group.
It is not surprising that the vice president in charge of external liaison in Xifei was able to make a call to Hu Wenhai's pager.
Russell nodded and shook his head: "Regardless of whether Grumman has an opinion or not, Xifei has already made a decision on the risks arising from the recommendations of the Ministry of Aviation Industry. In fact, your news is still a bit behind, and Xifei has just defused these additional risks. โ
"You solved this problem?"
Wall was a little surprised, he thought that Grumman was going to simply suffer this dumb loss, but he didn't expect that the matter had already been resolved!
He really couldn't believe it, was it Hu Wenhai who came forward to persuade the airlines to accept the plane flying west? But what is the need for the airlines to listen to his demands, after all, Xinke has no influence in the air transport industry!
Russell nodded proudly: "Yes, or it can be said that it is being solved, but it is certain that the previous problem can no longer be called a problem." โ
"How did you solve it? Did you convince those airlines? If there was such influence, why didn't Xifei do it earlier?"
"No, we didn't convince those four airlines to change their decision. Russell shook his head and said: "Although these promises are not so reliable, Xifei's current relationship at the top level is really not comparable to Shangfei's. But we have our solution, in the words of Mr. Hu, for the richest man in the world, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. โ
Russell groaned, and then without waiting for others to ask, he directly announced the answer.
"ST Group and China Baoli jointly established an airline called Xinli, and the first purchase plan of Xinli Airlines was to order 100 MA600 aircraft from Xifei. In addition to this, a letter of intent was signed. As long as Xifei can smoothly enter the regional airliner market after five years, it will guarantee the purchase of no less than 200 regional airliners produced by Xifei, and pay an advance payment of one billion yuan to Xifei for this purpose. โ
The market risk that Mr. Wall feared is no longer there. โ
......
Entering the civil aviation industry is also a very novel attempt for Baoli.
But China's Civil Aviation Administration was originally a subordinate unit of the Air Force, and although it is now independent, the system is still full of Air Force relations.
Baoli came forward, and Hu Wenhai said that he mobilized the support of the Air Force, and the Air Force wore Baoli's vest to participate in the civil aviation industry. This is a number of things to do for the Air Force.
It not only consolidates the relationship with Hu Wenhai, but also the civil aviation industry is a lucrative emerging industry, and civil aviation pilots can also digest some of the retired pilots of the Air Force, and can better support the domestic panda that the Air Force is eager to wear.
For such reasons, there is no one in the Civil Aviation Administration who dares to delay it a little, so it is natural to complete the approval procedures as quickly as possible, and the low-key listing was successfully established.
The first thing Xinli Airlines did after its establishment was to sign a package purchase agreement with Xifei. The number of MA600 aircraft that has not yet been completed is as high as 100, and the number of Yun-7 transport models will be no less than 200 in the next ten years. In addition, there are 200 regional airliners with 100 seats that have not even been completed. The entire contract has an advance payment of up to RMB 1 billion, and the total contract amount is up to RMB 5 billion, which is agreed to be paid in the next ten years.
That is, Xifei is not a listed company at this time, otherwise this single contract will be exposed, and the stock value will be several times higher.
In fact, with the signing of the contract, no one in Xifei expressed the slightest opposition to the landing of the Panda fighter project. The project execution of the new regional airliner is even more galloping.
The change in subjective motivation brought about by different goals is very considerable.
It is difficult for a child from a poor family to learn English, what kind of job he can find, how much money he can make, and what position he will hold in a situation of complete uncertainty without being confused.
But if there is a rich second generation learning English, his father told him that if he passed the fourth level, he would let him enter the company as a vice president, and take over his class in two years. From now on, you don't need to be promoted and raised, marry Bai Fumei, you can reach the peak of life, and this learning motivation can naturally overcome any difficulties.
Today's Xifei is equivalent to a rich second generation with a large amount of property waiting to be inherited.
A contract of five billion yuan, as long as you work hard, you can win it. The effect of hanging a carrot in front of a donkey's eyes is much better than whipping.
In the blink of an eye, in the 90s, Xinfei Aircraft Manufacturing Company, a joint venture between Xifei and Xinke, Grumman and MBB, was successfully established.
The name of the new regional airliner was also quickly determined, and the XF-90 has attracted the attention of the entire Chinese aviation industry from the beginning of the project.
Compared with the excitement generally felt by the Chinese aviation industry, He Wenzhi and Shangfei naturally looked at the XF-90 that turned out to be unpleasant.
But there is no way for Xinfei and XF-90 and Xinli Airlines, if Xifei does not need the investment of the Ministry of Aviation Industry, how can He Wenzhi exert his influence?
Compared with Hu Wenhai, who opened a bank at home, He Wenzhi's chips are really pitiful.
