"$1.5 billion. Liang Yuan repeated in a low voice.
Although Liang Yuan knows the MPC75 project well, he only remembers the important nodes and grasps the general direction, such as the MPC75 will give up the original slurry fan motor soon and change back to the jet turbofan engine.
According to the current currency value of the republic, it is 6o billion, and when the renminbi depreciates sharply in a few years, the entire planned investment will be as high as 10 billion yuan.
At present, the Republic is assembling the McDonnell Dalwells 82 and its follow-up McDonnell Douglas 9O projects in Wusong, and the cumulative investment is about this amount, and the economic strength of the Republic in the 80s is absolutely unable to support the two large-scale civil airliner exhibition plans.
The MPC75 project was just a straw that Xifei grabbed when he was struggling to survive, and without Liang Yuan's intervention, in terms of the conservative style of the Republican officialdom, billions of dollars would be invested in a newly developed passenger aircraft, a risk that no official would dare to bear.
The assembly of McDonnell Douglas 82 and then obtaining the technical authorization of McDonnell Douglas 9O is much more secure than the research MPC75, and more importantly, it was agreed that the McDonnell Douglas passenger aircraft produced by Wusong could be sold back to the United States, and the Republic is equivalent to dry processing, which can not only make money but also obtain technology, and the production is still a large trunk airliner, which is more reliable than the joint opening of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Pity. No one knew that ten years later, the huge McDonnell Douglas Company had disappeared, and the Republic that was planning to take a free ride was brutally pitted, and the stock speculation became a shareholder, and the materials of the McDonnell Douglas airliner that had been bought for six or seven billion dollars were completely smashed in their hands and basically in a semi-abandoned state.
What is even more tragic is that since 1985, the Republic's efforts on large mainline airliners have been all in vain, and 15 years is enough time for middle-aged people in the prime of life to enter old age.
However, after Boeing, which acquired McDonnell Douglas, announced that it would completely stop researching the original McDonnell Douglas series of passenger aircraft, the Republic still did not stop the pace of developing large passenger aircraft. Time has entered the new century. At that time, AVIC, which led the aviation industry of the Republic, made the ARJ21 regional airliner with all the strength of the country, and flew it in 2oo8, and it was still in the airworthiness certification stage until Liang Yuancai.
For the large airliner project turned out to be said. A large number of technicians. Lots of money. A lot of time, these three are just the premise, and the more important thing is after the passenger plane is out. The recognition of the market is the lifeblood, with Boeing's strength in the field of passenger aircraft, similar to the sound cruiser or 7376oo, this model that is not bought by the market still dies or has a dismal performance.
After all, the temper of the market is so difficult to fathom, the future is so difficult to grasp, even the cutting-edge marketing experts and top industrial groups, still dare not guarantee that their products will be recognized by the market, if it is really relying on advanced technology and denying the win or loss, McDonnell Douglas will not decline at all, and the king of the regional airliner field in the future, Canada's Bombardier and Brazilian industrial companies will have no chance to rise.
"Jiajia, take out the stack of newspapers in your backpack. Liang Yuan said to Ning Wanjia, who deliberately stayed away from him.
went out with two Lori, Liang Yuan has always been empty-handed, and all the miscellaneous things were thrown in the backpacks of the two little girls.
"Well, Xiaoyuan, are you from Shengjing?" Ning Wanjia stood up and asked with dark eyes.
Seeing that Liang Yuan nodded, the little girl went to the outer closet and retrieved a stack of English newspapers.
Liang Yuan took the newspaper and flipped through a few sheets, then handed it to Qi Lianshan on the sand, and said with a smile: "Old Qi, look at your recent progress in English, where you have translated and translated pen circles." β
"It's too difficult and I still can't understand it, and I hope that the things that are too big and small are not too professional. Qi Lianshan smiled and took the newspaper.
"Reuters, Dec. 28 (Reuters) -- Romanian Industry Minister Iliescu announced that after nearly two decades of painstaking construction, the Romanian aviation industry has achieved heavy success and will soon sell Romanian-made aircraft production lines abroad. β
"Lao Qi, flip through a few more. Liang Yuan said.
"The Times, on December 28, Romania announced that it had received orders for foreign aircraft production lines, and it seems that after fifteen years of hard work, Romania has fully mastered the ...... of BANET large passenger aircraft production technology imported from the United Kingdom. β
Qi Lianshan flipped through several newspapers in a row, and the news circled by the pen was all the same, thinking of the conversation between Liang Yuan and Tang Wan and the others just now, the surprise on Qi Lianshan's face became stronger and stronger, and finally couldn't help asking: "Yuan Da Shao, this buyer won't be you, right?"
"Xiaoyuan, don't you really want to go to Romania to buy an aircraft assembly line, they also import the H-5 from the West, where may there be any aircraft production line, which bastard gave you the news, tell Uncle Ning. Ning Lei said with concern.
Tang Wan was full of confidence, and the old god was watching how Liang Yuan explained.
"Uncle Ning, this matter really has nothing to do with outsiders, the origin of the matter is that the Romanian Planning and Economic Commission found Liu Wenyue in East Germany. Liang Yuan smiled and waved his hand, and hurriedly whitewashed Liu Wenyue.
With the boom in the GDR Union-level market, the accumulated discontent in GDR society was effectively alleviated, and although the prices of the latest electronic products were frighteningly high and often out of stock, ordinary things such as clothing, food, housing and transportation were indeed available.
Although they have to wait in line every time they shop at Union Mall, for East Germans who have to wait in line for days or even months to buy goods, it is a paradise to be able to get what they need in half a day.
In the face of the obvious easing of domestic contradictions, the GDR awarded the GDR Yuanjia a series of honors, similar to the GDR Ministry of Commerce Demonstration Unit and other brands, and the GDR Yuanjia has already taken a number of pieces, together with the current general manager of the Yuanjia, Liu Wenyue, were awarded the second-highest medal of the GDR for the recognition of foreigners, the Karl Marx Silver Medal.
Under the example of the GDR. Not only the Soviet Union, but also Romania and Yugoslavia have sent relevant personnel to visit Yuanjia in East Germany and invite Yuanjia companies to invest in their countries and build shopping malls or shopping centers.
After Liang Yuan received Liu Wenyue's work report, he originally planned to drag it out first, and it was directly delayed until the end of 89, but since Tang Wan proposed to inject capital or manage United Airlines, prompting Liang Yuan to decide to go all out into the aviation industry, Romania has been valued by Liang Yuan.
For Liang Yuan, entering the aviation industry in the 80s was really a tall building. What you want, what you don't have. In terms of the Soviet standard of the 50s in China, it is also very miserable, and the full strength of the aviation industry of the Republic is only the establishment of a large passenger aircraft assembly line at the level of the early 80s in Wusong.
Therefore, even if it relies on the strength of domestic factories and institutes. Liang Yuan still has to introduce a large number of equipment from abroad. Mixed with it, it is dragged down by the ills of large state-owned enterprises. It is better to build a factory independently, so after Liang Yuan read most of the public information about the international aviation industry, he was interested in Romania in the late seventies. The Banet line of large passenger aircraft, which cost hundreds of millions of pounds to be imported from British Aerospace, has generated extremely strong interest.
BANET airliner is the British Aerospace Airlines in the mid-sixties to drive the short and medium-haul trunk airliner, the maximum take-off weight of nearly 5O tons, carrying 119 passengers, its subsequent latest model 5oo series has been driven until the late 7O years, and the United States Boeing 737, McDonnell Douglas 8O series belongs to the same era of competitors.
At the end of the sixties and the beginning of the seventies, Ceausescu, who confirmed his leading position in Romania, proposed that through a high degree of accumulation and high accumulation, more than 3o% of the national income should be used as a development fund and a high index for the development of the national economy, and at the end of the 20th century, Romania would be built into a socialist country with comprehensive development and at the same time open the grand goal of moving towards the first place.
In order to accomplish this grand goal, Romania's domestic resources were quickly concentrated in heavy industry, and because Romania under the leadership of Ceausescu openly opposed the revisionist diplomatic propositions of limited sovereignty put forward by the Soviet Union, it gained great favor in the Western world, and Romania, which had convenient conditions, borrowed tens of billions of dollars in debt, imported a large amount of machinery and equipment from Western countries, and focused on aviation, chemical, petroleum, and other industries in the country, and successfully turned into an economic exchange bridge between the East and West camps in the Cold War.
On this basis, Romania enjoyed a golden period of ten years, when the Republic and Romania were in close contact and before the republic, it was a rare opportunity to work in Romania and the GDR.
After entering the eighties, as the world economy entered a downward channel, Romania also fell into an economic downturn, but for the Romanian people, it was worse than the economic deterioration of Ceausescu.
For a long time, Ceausescufei's self-aggrandizement not only brought his wife and children into the Romanian Party Central Committee in politics, but also ignored the current situation in Romania economically, and came up with a Great Leap Forward policy similar to that of the Republic of China with an output of 10,000 catties per mu.
No matter how much Romania whitewashes it, it can't hide Liang Yuan, who has lived again, in order to prove the righteous nature of the Eastern European Spring, almost everything that happened in Eastern European countries and the Soviet Union during this period has been examined with a magnifying glass, at least in the future, there are not a few scholars in the system of the Republic who rely on this to eat.
Thinking of the leader of the country who was about to be shot, and Romania, whose international influence has declined sharply since then, Liang Yuan certainly did not mind digging into the corner of Ceausescu, in Liang Yuan's view, the Soviet Union could not leave much legacy to himself in terms of civil aircraft, no matter how cheap the Figure 154 is, the production line is still a plane that cannot be sold without airworthiness certification, and how can Liang Yuan touch the technology that cannot be sustained, looking at the entire Warsaw Pact Group, there is only one Romania that has a complete set of Western aircraft production lines, which is very important for Liang Yuan to be qualified to participate in international competition and cooperation in the futureγ
"Since Romania invited us to open a shopping mall, as a member of the socialist family, the company is of course very interested, but according to our practice of opening stores in the GDR, Liu Wenyue proposed to barter trade first, similar to the 25S and 243 electric locomotives in the GDR. β
As a result, Lao Liu discussed with the Romanian side many times, and felt that only the aircraft production line we might use, and then this news came out. Liang Yuan said with a smile.
Tang Wan saw Liang Yuan smiling and knew that things were not so simple, with the industrial level of Romania, how could it be possible to export large passenger aircraft production lines.
For a red child like Tang Wan, the inside stories of the previous movements since the founding of the Republic have long been familiar, and some bullshit things in the system are even more well understood, and they can guess Liang Yuan's tricks with a little concentration.
"Xiaoyuan, you want to bring the original production line of the British to the pot, you little bastard is so bold that you are boundless. β
"Tell Aunt Ning, did you contact Liu Wenyue's wife, his daughter, or his son? When Ceausescu visited China last year, Aunt Ning also saw Ceausescu's daughter at the Diaoyutai Hotel. Tang Wan asked with a smile. (To be continued......)
