Gou saw that Douglas did not speak for a long time, and his heart was also suffering from gains and losses. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, it is not a bad thing to say that he does not express his position, as long as he does not refuse on the spot, he feels that he has the opportunity to continue to fight for it in the future. And in the matter of fighting for opportunities, Gou Guan thinks that he still has two brushes - if not, how can he get his turn for the position of general manager of COMAC?

Being able to come up with such conditions in front of the public, Gou Guan can be regarded as a ruin. It is so obvious that he wants to act as McDonnell Douglas's comprador in China, and he also has a network of connections on his own head that is strong enough to get him out of power without a few words.

"Mr. Douglas, if you are interested in our conditions, you can always come to me on the fly......"

"Okay, I will definitely go to Shangfei when I have the chance, and I can have a good chat with Gou then." Douglas couldn't help but yawn, a little absent-mindedly perfunctory.

Seeing that Gou Guan was still a little unwilling, Douglas had to cheer up again and reluctantly said: "Gou can rest assured, it is foreseeable that the relationship between McDonnell Douglas and China's aviation manufacturing industry will usher in a new period." I believe that this cooperation will be beneficial to both of us, especially Shangfei, you have a very big advantage. However, how the cooperation with Shangfei will develop will be determined after I have a specific understanding. ”

"Yes, then I'm waiting for you on the fly. Gou Guan couldn't help but be elated when he heard Douglas's assurance. The whole person seemed to be drunk, blushing, shaking, and nodding at a loss.

To be able to pull such a sentence out of Douglas's mouth, his statement tonight will not be in vain. McDonnell Douglas was interested in expanding its partnership with China, and before anyone else got the news, the city would have appreciated him. With the support of the city government, Shangfei will definitely occupy an advantageous position in the cooperation with McDonnell Douglas.

"I'm sorry, I'm so tired. Douglas looked at his watch again, spread his hands regretfully, and said, "Please allow me to take my leave first, I need to have enough rest before I can contact the Chinese side about the situation at work." ”

Seeing him like this, Gou Guan and the accompanying people around him still didn't know what to do? Douglas had just made a transoceanic plane to China, and now it was time for jet lag. Now that people are tired, don't bother anymore.

Soon after the banquet began, Douglas excused himself to leave the table early, citing discomfort. And lost the protagonist of the banquet, the guests also hurriedly ate and drank, and then said goodbye and left. Before the lights came on, the banquet hall of the Xijiao Hotel was already empty and empty.

At this time, Douglas, who was probably asleep in everyone's hearts, was unaware of it and drove into the gate of the Xinke Modu Guest House in a car with a city license plate.

"Whoa—"

Douglas, who had been filled with a stomach full of sugar-free bitter coffee, jumped out of the car and slapped his cheek hard to sober himself up.

For a business elite, staying up late like this is almost common in the first half of his life, and he has long been experienced. However, by the time he ascended to the position of president of McDonnell Douglas, it had been a long time since he had been so wronged.

"Mr. Douglas?" A staff member in a black suit walked over, examined Douglas carefully, and then said apologetically, "Sorry sir, I have to make sure you don't bring contraband." ”

"Oh, of course. Douglas stretched out his arms and made a pose of being searched.

What is Hu Wenhai's situation now, Douglas knows very well. If sacrificing a McDonnell Douglas president can kill him, many people will presumably celebrate with their crowns and dance excitedly.

It was only after a detailed search that Douglass was allowed to let go. Crossing a tree-lined path in a small courtyard by the sea, he was sent into a somewhat ordinary two-story building.

"Hello, Mr. Douglas. Let me introduce myself, Chen Fa, secretary to the chairman of ST Group, I am very happy that you can come to China. ”

Chen Fa naturally stretched out his hand generously, and his whole temperament was shrewd and capable, just like facing an ordinary person.

This kind of performance is very different from the submissive appearance of Gou Guan at the previous banquet, Douglas was slightly stunned, and then stretched out his hand sincerely: "Hello Ms. Chen, I am very happy to meet you." Mr. Hu Wenhai is my boss, and it is natural for subordinates to come to see the boss. ”

To be honest, Douglas did not think about reacting to the US government for the truth of the matter. Even the partial acquisition of McDonnell Douglas commercial aircraft by the Chinese is already a very serious situation. According to the rules of the Paris Coordinating Organization, large aircraft clearly belong to the field of cutting-edge technology that should be banned from opening up to China.

As long as Douglas denounces the transaction between Grumman and Hu Wenhai to the U.S. government, then the court will declare the agreement between Hu Wenhai and Grumman illegal, and then declare Grumman's acquisition of McDonnell Douglas a failure.

Grumman is now on a thief ship and can't get off, and he has colluded too closely with the Chinese side to wash it in. From the F-14 entering China, to exporting the overhaul line to China in a marginal game, to colluding with the Navy and the Chinese military to export scrapped A7 attack aircraft engines to China, and then the Chinese military came forward to upgrade the Phantom all over the world.

Not to mention that Grumman later provided the key technology of the F-14 to the Chinese side, and the company intended to acquire the second largest military and commercial aviation manufacturer in the United States. If these things are poked out, Grumman will wait to be sanctioned until he goes bankrupt.

Of course, if Grumman loses the favor of the Chinese market and Mr. Hu, and loses the agency of the blue pill, then they will also be a dead word.

But so what? What's in it for McDonnell Douglas that Grumman is dead? Will someone continue to provide tens of billions of dollars to buy McDonnell Douglas so that it can continue to invest in the development of a new generation of ATF fighters, or will someone provide a $16.7 billion purchase package for commercial aircraft?

Not only that, even if McDonnell Douglas disregarded its own interests, would Boeing be open to it? Wrong, without Grumman, Boeing now presses McDonnell Douglas to the ground and rubs against it every minute, and continues to buy McDonnell Douglas at a price far lower than Grumman's.

Doing "good deeds" will not only not be rewarded, but will also be doomed. McDonnell Douglas is no different from Grumman's, not to mention that the secret agreement between Hu Wenhai and McDonnell Douglas is that the cooperation between the two sides is completely "voluntary".

In the absence of conclusive evidence, Douglas will only be slandered and slandered by Grumman's counter-sues, and lose all wealth and status in dishonor. Become a beam-jumping clown who blocks Grumman's merger with McDonnell Douglas and intends to block the car with his mantis arm.

As for whether Grumman is likely to betray the alliance with Mr. Hu, no one can say this future. But for the time being, Hu Wenhai's series of actions in last year's and this year's show not only frightened his opponents, but also Grumman's own internal high-level officials have also undergone a major purge? Now among Grumman's upper echelons, it is an iron rule not to challenge Hu Wenhai.

After so many years of "exhaustive strategy" in the financial market, Hu Wenhai finally established his own "brand" in the world. Now Mr. Hu's intangible assets, the deterrent represented by the name "Hu Wenhai", will definitely not be less than Mr. Hu's tangible assets.

In one day, the major events in the field of international finance cannot ignore him.

For Grumman, for McDonnell Douglas, the same is true. As long as Hu Wenhai is still Hu Wenhai, then this alliance will be rock-solid in the foreseeable future.

Chen Fa was obviously very satisfied with Douglas's statement, rarely showed a charming smile, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Hu is already waiting for you, please come with me." ”

After speaking, Chen Fa walked in front, all the way through the door and porch, and came to a room without windows and without knowing the direction.

Chen Fa had just knocked on the door, pushed open a crack in the door, and stood at the door when he heard the sound of speech coming from the room.

"I said, Assistant Huang, what are you doing here? Don't let me appear in public, even in my own guest house, you can't move around at will. I know that you want to protect me, but those who don't know think I'm in prison! This room doesn't even have a window, and it's a shame that I deliberately wanted to build a guest house by the sea, because I just wanted a beach facing the sea to blow the sea breeze? How good it would be for me to hide in the Xishan Strategic Command Center, at least there is more space and better air!"

"Mr. Hu, we can't help it. An aggrieved voice sounded in the room: "According to the idea of our city government, I can't wait to put the news of your coming to the magic capital on TV! But you also know that the wind has been tight recently, and it is the central government's strict order that you must be responsible for your safety." There's no way we can do that......"

Hu Wenhai was silent, looking up to the sky and sighing. What is this called? Probably, this is called a demon who is cool for a while, squatting in the bunker for the rest of his life.

According to the news from some trails, Mr. Hu's life has risen to the level of one billion dollars. It is said that it is jointly funded by a number of financial institutions, and Hu Wenhai's reward amount on the black market is the first in the world.

A while ago, an attempted explosion occurred at the Xiangshan Hotel where he was staying in the imperial capital, and the frightened units simply stuffed Mr. Hu into the Xishan Strategic Command Center for a while.

He was so eager to come to the magic capital, maybe it wasn't because of this. Who thought of the magic capital, although there is no need to squat on the ground, but the situation has not improved much.

"Ahem—"

Chen Fa pushed open the door, pretended to cough, and then turned sideways to introduce Douglas into the room.

"Mr. Hu, this is Mr. Douglas, the general manager of McDonnell Douglas. ”

"Hello, Mr. Douglas. Hu Wenhai sorted out his mood, walked over to Douglas, and said in English: "Hello Douglas, I'm Hu Wenhai. ”

"Nihao, Mr. Hu!"

Douglas hurriedly took the lead in stretching out his hands, took the initiative to hold Hu Wenhai, and said in the Chinese dialect that he learned by holding Buddha's feet: "Hate and be happy, and cherish the mud!"

"Hahahaha, Mr. Douglas's Chinese needs to be studied again. Hu Wenhai pointed to the sofa next to him and asked Douglas to sit down: "I think you will often have the opportunity to contact China in the future, like Grumman's Norton president, who now speaks Chinese very well." ”

"Ah, yes. Douglas nodded: "I will study hard, please rest assured." ”

"Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Huang, the assistant mayor of the Demon City Mansion. Hu Wenhai pointed to the person next to him and introduced: "If McDonnell Douglas enters China, it must first build an Asian delivery center. In this regard, Shangfei does have a great advantage, and the Demon City Government also attaches great importance to it. ”

"Yes, McDonnell Douglas agrees that we can expand our current relationship with Shangfei. I met with the new general manager of Shanghai Mechanics before, and he was very positive about the cooperation between Shanghai Aircraft and McDonnell Douglas. ”

Hu Wenhai shook his head: "The Asia Commercial Aircraft Delivery Center is only the first step, and for McDonnell Douglas, the $16.7 billion Chinese market is not enough to save McDonnell Dalwellwell from its current bad state." What we need to do is to cultivate more local suppliers in China, so that McDonnell Douglas has more excellent cost-effective options. I judge that in the future aviation market, the performance of commercial aircraft will give way to economy. On the one hand, it is necessary to reduce the fuel consumption of passenger aircraft, and on the other hand, to reduce the production cost of aircraft, which is the key to the competition between McDonnell Douglas and Boeing. ”

"Yes, I think so too. However, to develop local suppliers in China...... Douglas hesitated: "Based on our past experience, local production and assembly in China cannot reduce the production cost of aircraft. ”

"This situation was said by the manager Gou you met before, right?" Hu Wenhai shook his head disdainfully: "The words of this general manager of Shangfei - you just fart him." ”

"The problem of flying is management and attitude, not technology and the market itself. As long as the management of Shangfei is replaced, these problems can be solved. As for whether China's localized production can reduce costs, I am not convincing just by saying nothing. In this way, tomorrow you can go to the flight with me, and we will see what the level of workers in China's aircraft manufacturing industry is. ”

Assistant Huang next to him was stunned when he heard this, stunned and shocked, and hurriedly objected in Chinese: "President Hu, do you want to fly in person?" This is not okay, this is a serious violation of security regulations, and the city must be furious when it knows it!"

"No way?"

Hu Wenhai snorted twice and threatened: "Assistant Huang, you think about it, there are many places waiting to do this McDonnell Douglas Asia Delivery Center project." A few days ago, the leader of our Bohai Province just called me, thinking that I was too unkind, and I didn't think about my own people for this kind of good thing. Well, if I go back to Xiucheng, at least I don't have to live in a room like this that doesn't even have windows!"

"This ......"
