593 An unexpected end for Pakistan

"It's a bit of a misfit, but anyway, Pakistan helped us when we were short of funds. Zheng Yucheng didn't know when he woke up.

Persuade Xie Kai.

Xie Kai completely looks like a businessman, and in such a situation, taking advantage of the fire to rob is definitely a normal situation in the world.

However, Zheng Yucheng felt a little inauthentic.

"What's inappropriate? Why didn't they think about it when we were under pressure?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng.

200 engines, if it were not for the great interest expressed by Pakistan and even the signing of a contract of intent, in the end 404 did its own thing according to the agreement, but Pakistan did not fulfill their obligations.

"Although they were at fault first, I think we still have to take it easy with this kind of cooperation. Xie Kai, although I know that you are for our base, but sometimes, you can't use all the benefits. You raise the price, more than they can afford, and you know better than anyone what will happen in the end. Wang Guilin also persuaded Xie Kai.

Pakistan is no other country.

This is known to both sides.

"Besides, aren't you going to let Pakistan become an agent for our weapons and equipment exports?" Zheng Yucheng really didn't want Xie Kai to make relations with Pakistan too stiff for a little money. "Neither Iraq nor Persia are the objects of our long-term cooperation. ”

"Let's talk about that. Xie Kai was only temporary.

There is no doubt that Pakistan is very important for the future development of 404.

The only thing that makes Xie Kai unhappy is that Pakistan has indeed gone too far in this cooperation.

The pressure was borne by Xie Jianguo, who signed a contract to purchase engines.

If it weren't for believing Xie Kai, Dad wouldn't have taken such a big risk, no.

What's more, these engines are not useless now, and if the super-seven single-seat single-engine model is turned into a training aircraft, it is not without a market, and it will even be larger than the market for fighters.

Several people were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts.

Not long after, the doctors and nurses on duty at night made rounds.

When the doctors and nurses left, several people still had nothing to say, and Xie Kai was also wondering whether the situation in Pakistan was really going to increase prices.

He doesn't really want to raise prices, he just wants to become a window to the outside world through Pakistan.

Mo Qi and his wife, and even Sun Juan didn't come so late, which made him feel a little bad, and he was angry with Pakistan and wantonly raised prices, which seemed to be really inappropriate.

"Xie, my friend, what's wrong with you?" I don't know how long it took, the door of the ward was pushed open, and as soon as Mubara pushed the door open, he saw Xie Kai and hurriedly expressed his greetings.

After some greetings, Mubara turned his attention to old acquaintances Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin.

"General, I don't know what you are here for this time?" Xie Kai's attitude was not very good.

"Xie, when you passed by our country a while ago, you already said that we have always been interested in the Super Seven project, but our military is short of money......" Seeing Xie Kai's bad attitude, Mubara's heart also hung up.

Xie Kai raised the price at every turn, especially the previous 359 tank, which gave them an extra $50 million in technical threshold fees, and many core components had to be imported from China.

"General, I heard that your air force is very passive now?" Xie Kai asked.

When Mubara heard this, his heart was even more upset.

I didn't know how to answer Xie Kai's somewhat impolite question for a while, so I looked at Xie Kai like this.

"General, he didn't mean anything else, when we signed a contract of intent, we mobilized funds to start fulfilling our duties, and even purchased 200 advanced RD-33 engines directly from the Soviet Union in order to avoid accidents in this project. As a result, our prototype is about to make its first flight, and your country's funds have not yet been ......," Wang Guilin hurriedly explained.

Mubara was even more embarrassed.

Long Yaohua was on the side, and he couldn't interject at all.

The contract between 404 and the Pakistanis, he can only see the specific situation when he signs the contract, and he never thought that in cooperation, 404 has always occupied an absolute advantage.

"That's really our problem. But as you know, we have a financial problem...... "Mubara, even if he is embarrassed, has to explain.

In this matter, Pakistan is indeed wrong.

On the way here, he thought about it, as long as the price increase of 404 is not too much, it is not unacceptable.

"General, it is precisely because of your financial problems that we have not delayed the progress of the project due to your problems. Zheng Yucheng also spoke, "However, this time, can you call the shots?"

Looking at Zheng Yucheng, Mubara didn't know why he was so eager.

This is somewhat different from international cooperation in the development of military equipment technology.

If they want to raise prices, shouldn't they not talk about these issues now?

"This time, as long as your government agrees, we will sign a formal cooperation ...... in accordance with the terms of the contract of intent," Mubara said slowly, watching Xie Kai's reaction all the while.

Cooperation, both sides agreed.

Now Pakistan is forced to have no choice, and the Air Force's plan to acquire the American F-16 on a large scale has come to naught, while the J-6 and J-7 obtained by China in China have clearly shown in actual combat that they are simply unable to confront the advanced fighters of the Soviet Union.

If the Chinese take this opportunity to raise prices and make excessive demands, they will not be able to do anything.

Even had to accept it.

"General, there's actually something wrong with the Super Seven project. Xie Kai pondered whether to propose a price increase.

When Mubara heard this, he immediately stood up and became anxious, "No, thank you, you can't do this! We have now finally persuaded the Air Force to cooperate with you......

"Did you convince your country's Air Force?" Xie Kai said coldly, "It's because your Air Force is not happy with the Americans, right? The F-16 fighters I saw in Karachi were all piloted by the Americans themselves, right?"

Mubarah Cheng was silent.

This kind of thing can't be hidden.

"General, the Super Seven project, because there is no funding from you, so far, we have invested 230 million US dollars in the engine alone, not to mention the development cost. Now the first model has begun to be produced as a prototype for test flights, and in order to recover the investment funds, we have decided to change it to an advanced training aircraft...... "Xie Kai said.

Mubara's face suddenly turned pale.

Trainers are used for fart.

The Pakistani Air Force needs fighters that can fight, can conduct air combat, and can even provide fire support on the ground.

"So, if we're going to cooperate, we're going to have to restart something else?" Mubara asked, grimacing.

What he feared eventually became a reality.

Damn Xie Kai, shameless bastard, actually took this opportunity to raise the price.

The fart advanced trainer is definitely the kind of performance that they talked about before, but the bad thing is that they have to pay more.

"Yes. ”

Xie Kai nodded, "Advanced trainer aircraft, this is something that our Air Force lacks, and at the same time, there is a huge demand in the world market. ”

If you don't buy it, it's not that we can't find customers.

Looking at Mubara's expression, Xie Kai's mood was as comfortable as eating an old popsicle that June day.

Long Yaohua looked at Xie Kai with a frown.

He didn't understand Urdu, but judging by Mubara's expression, it was definitely not a good thing.

Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin's faces were also full of heaviness, which made Long Yaohua feel that things were a little unreliable.

"How much money do we need?" asked Mubarah, "how much money do we pay, and what do we get?" ”

"You still have the contract of intent kept, right?" Xie Kai asked.

Mubara was stunned, and everyone else was stunned.

Xie Kai, what is this for?

"According to the original contract, although our previous project was changed to an advanced training aircraft project, many technologies can be generalized ......," Xie Kai said with a smile.

His words shocked everyone a little, and they couldn't react for a while.

Especially Wang Guilin and Zheng Yucheng, didn't Xie Kai say before that he wanted to raise the price?

"Although you have violated the spirit of the contract, we cannot violate the principles. We have a long-standing traditional friendship, and the custom of Chinese has always been to repay grievances with virtue......" Xie Kai smiled and said a lot of nonsense.

Mubara was a little incomprehensible for a while, Xie Kai has always been the master of dying for money.

Saying this, is there a bigger conspiracy?

Or are they more difficult to accept?

Just looked at Xie Kai like this, waiting for him to continue.

Xie Kai didn't speak, he just looked at Mubala with a smile, and he suddenly felt that this was very good and interesting.

"What are the conditions?" Mubara asked with difficulty.

His heart sank to the bottom, Xie Kai has always had plenty of excuses to raise prices.

Now the Chinese side is given an excuse to raise prices, and then people do not raise prices, there are no conditions that are more difficult to accept than price increases, will this happen?

"There are no conditions. If I had to say yes, $250 million would have to be paid all at once. "Everything is in accordance with the contract of intent that was signed at the beginning, and of course, the cost of setting up an assembly line in your country will certainly not be included in this......

Mubara's mouth opened wide in disbelief.

When did Xie Kai become so talkative?

seized the opportunity to not blackmail them, not to mention that now is the best opportunity for China to blackmail them.

"General, do you have any questions?" asked Zheng Yucheng.

Xie Kai didn't raise the price, and they felt a lot more comfortable in their hearts.

At the very least, the cooperation negotiations will be much easier, and the differences between the two sides have been almost discussed before.

It's just an agreement of intent, and both sides showed their sincerity in cooperation at the beginning, and even the details were negotiated.

As long as the higher-level leaders of 404 approve and the government agrees, Pakistan will give money, and the cooperation will be reached.

"No, no, there is no ......" Mubara has countless questions in his heart, China does not raise prices, and will definitely not take the initiative to ask, right?

Pakistan is poorer than China.
