567 Imitation F-14 It's time to start?
"What conditions?" even Xie Kai was shocked.
"Fifty million! We will give you people, and all the technology about your two fighters will belong to you, no matter how high the profit you sell, we will not share. Li Wenzheng gritted his teeth and said.
Mr. Song frowned and looked at the director, not knowing whether to stop it.
Huo Haiyuan, who had not spoken all the time and looked a little embarrassed, had his eyes bulging out.
Although the negotiation between the new and old owners is about the content of cooperation and the division of rights and responsibilities between the two parties, the belonging of him and the team is also one of the contents of the negotiation, so it has always been difficult to speak.
Now when I heard the director ask for 50 million funds, it was obvious that the lion opened his mouth and did not want to accept the other party's conditions.
Xiong Hongyuan had the heart to stop it, but he was powerless.
Li Wenzheng clearly doesn't want to cooperate.
Li Wenzheng, who said this number, regretted it a little, 50 million is definitely not a small amount, but when he thought of the other party's greedy face, he was not very angry.
"Yes. Zheng Yucheng had a smile on his face and replied calmly, which made Li Wenzheng and the others even more stunned.
Xie Kai was a little speechless.
Zheng Yucheng doesn't make any money by himself, so he doesn't feel heartache at all.
50 million, you have to sell a lot of missiles and tanks to earn it.
"The 50 million funds can be given, but you must ensure that you will help the development of the two fighters of the Super Seven Fighter Project to be completed...... The technical achievements developed belong to us, and you have the right to use them......" Zheng Yucheng's words reassured Xie Kai.
The old guy looks kind, and he is also the master of eating people and not spitting out bones.
In the previous cooperation with the 611 Institute, although the two sides did not clearly say the specific interests, after all, it was expected that Pakistan would participate in the development of the 611 Institute, and the technology developed by the 611 Institute could not only verify their things, but also get a lot of returns from this project.
Now on the 404 investment, the funds are more strict than the original.
611 All other thoughts are also normal.
"No problem, we reached an agreement at the beginning, and we will definitely do our best for the Super Seven project. Li Wenzheng said.
At this time, Song Wencong wanted to stop it, but there was no way.
Although 50 million yuan is too much, he also knows that Li Wenzheng wants this 50 million yuan to speed up the research of some projects of the No. 10 Project, but this amount of funds is only a drop in the bucket for the funding gap required for the technical research and development of the No. 10 Project.
"Then there is no problem, draw up the contract, sign the contract immediately, and the funds will arrive within three days!" Zheng Yucheng was afraid that the other party would regret it, so he hurriedly said.
At this time, Li Wenzheng regretted that it was useless.
Zheng Yucheng is even ready, if the other party regrets it, he will not continue to cooperate with them to make Super Seven.
So, under the joint planning of both parties, it took less than an hour to sign a new contract, which was stamped with the official seals of 404 and 611, and even 132 factories became witnesses and stamped the official seals on it.
The contract is to be executed in five copies, with one copy each for 611,132,404 and the remaining two copies, which will be transferred from 404 to the military logistics management department and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.
Originally, he felt that he had taken advantage of it, but Zheng Yucheng asked for it, and when he signed it and the official seal was stamped, Zheng Yucheng took the contract and left the conference room with a smile with Xie Kai on the grounds that he was drunk and needed to rest.
At this time, where are the two of them still a little drunk?
"Are we fooled? They've been planning this from the beginning. Huo Haiyuan felt that things were not as simple as they seemed. "Although they say that the next step is to develop a heavy twin-engine fighter......"
"They said?" Mr. Song was shocked.
"I've reported it before. Huo Haiyuan is very embarrassed now facing the people of his old club.
"Alright, I know their purpose. According to the previous theoretical data analysis, the bomb load is only 1 ton, and the combat radius will not exceed 400 kilometers. Li Wenzheng sighed and said.
Single-engine super seven, even with the 404 RD-33 engine imported from the Soviet Union, due to the lack of thrust of the engine, the performance can not be superior.
Mr. Song was a little puzzled, "Then why are they doing this? 50 million is equivalent to taking away a right from us that does not allow us to share the benefits." ”
"Unless they can guarantee that they can sell a lot, they can recoup their investment and have a greater profit. Pakistan has made it clear that they need American F-16s, not ...... like the Super Seven."
As for the situation in Pakistan, the 611 Institute still knows about it.
After all, in terms of fighter exports, 611 is NO.1 in the country.
No one can figure out what the 404 people want to do.
"We didn't think about it before, what if this fighter wasn't used for combat?" Li Wenzheng asked a few people rhetorically.
"It's not used to fight, so what is it for?" Xiong Hongyuan didn't understand.
The development of fighters is not used for combat, so what is the purpose of development?
Fighters are all about gaining air supremacy and striking the enemy from the air.
"Are you saying that they are going to sell them as training planes?" Mr. Song asked with some disbelieving, "There is only such a possibility." ”
"Nothing but this. Otherwise, they won't continue to invest. Li Wenzheng sighed again. "That's why they continue to get a lot of foreign trade orders. ”
"This kind of fighter, according to the current situation, costs at least seven or eight million US dollars, how much will it be sold?" Mr. Song did not understand.
The trainer aircraft is completely a consumable for training pilots, although it also has some combat capabilities, which are completely negligible.
"So, the next step, they're definitely going to ask for a reduction in configuration. Li Wenzheng smiled bitterly. "Play with the heart eye, we really can't play this old and young, and it is estimated that few people in the country can play with them. ”
It's not that they can't play it, but it's hard to guess what they're trying to do.
"Director, in this way, the market prospects for their fighters are great. Even in our country, there are no specialized high-level training aircraft. If this fighter is only used for a single engine, the fuel consumption and performance are much higher than that of domestic training aircraft...... Huo Haiyuan was puzzled.
Obviously, Li Wenzheng knew the other party's purpose, why did he still agree.
For the sake of fifty million, give up the interests of the back, this is not ......
"You mean I know and agree, right? Lao Huo, follow them and do a good job, whatever you have in the future, you can communicate, they plan to set up their own aircraft design institute, the purpose will not be so simple. Li Wenzheng had a somewhat complicated mood about Huo Haiyuan, "I also thought of this when Zheng Yucheng insisted on handing over the contract to the military and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense." Even if it's 200 high-level trainers, it will make them even more. ”
By the time I thought about it, it was too late.
Huo Haiyuan was very disappointed.
The 404 was developed not for national defense, but for sale.
What higher goals could there be?
"Xie Kai, did you tell me about your plan?" Zheng Yucheng and Xie Kai were very happy on the way back to the guest house.
Once the goal has been achieved, it will be easy to operate in the future.
"What is the plan?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng incomprehensibly, "We must wait until the prototype is completed and the test flight is carried out before contacting the customer." ”
"That's not what I'm talking about. Zheng Yucheng was dissatisfied.
The weather was hot and the ground was hot.
From the 611 to the guest house of the 132 factory, the distance is not close, but the two of them don't feel it.
Zheng Yucheng saw that Xie Kai didn't tell him, and his originally happy mood instantly became unhappy.
"When will you start copying the F-14?" Zheng Yucheng asked Xie Kai with some impatience.
The F-14 has been stopped at 404 for a long time, and the surveying and mapping work has been completed, and even after the various structures have been repeatedly determined, they have begun to disassemble them, ready to start production and assembly after they are familiar with all the assembly structures.
To this end, the base specially dispatched more than a dozen ninth-level assembly fitters to do this.
Some of the people who dug up from 601 stayed in 404 to plan this.
"What are you doing by copying the F-14? Don't you really leave a way for our brother units to live?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng rhetorically. "Besides, doesn't the Air Force want to buy the Su-27? After the Su-27 is purchased, the next step must be to plan the introduction of the Su-27 production line......
Xie Kai did not think of copying the F-14 at all.
Although the F-14 is a very advanced fighter, and the Chinese people are more familiar with it, the expensive construction and high maintenance and use costs are not something that the Chinese Air Force can afford in 20 years.
Su-27, how many years did it take to save a little money in China?
The PLA's equipment is already a bit messy, and in the Air Force, it is either designed and manufactured by itself, or it is Soviet-style, and then equipped with Western-style fighters, which has greater logistical pressure and higher costs.
"Don't imitate, then why do we put so much energy into it?" Zheng Yucheng was furious, "You kid should be this fun?"
Regarding Zheng Yucheng's anger, Xie Kai didn't care too much.
"Imitation, is our cost higher than that of the Americans? According to the current exchange rate, can we produce 100 million aircraft? Especially the engine, avionics system, fire control system, ......and so on?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng.
The technical difficulty of the F-14 is simply too great for the current aviation industry system.
Xie Kai wanted to copy this more than anyone else, but he couldn't let the base throw the few funds on it.
"It's really a bit difficult. Let's not talk about how long it will take us and how much money we will have, just this cost, the Air Force can't afford it!" Zheng Yucheng's face instantly turned bitter melon color.
Xie Kai did not tell Zheng Yucheng that the Su-27, no matter how cheap it is, the price will not be too cheap.
He liked the Su-27 as much as the F-14.
But the Su-27 is more suitable for China, and the existing technical reserves of China's aerospace system are in line with each other, and it is more in line with the development of China's aviation industry.
What he needs to do is not to change, but to promote.
After the 601, it undertook the localization of the Su-27 and Su-30, and undertook the research and development and improvement of heavy fighters; the 611 was engaged in the development of single-engine medium fighters such as the Jian-10......
Then, the best and most suitable opportunity for 404 is definitely not to rob them.
"But what are we doing? Just to get a super seven, as for spending so much effort?" Zheng Yucheng is still unwilling, Xie Kai must have a plan.
