Chapter 316: The nuclear submarine deal goes smoothly
"Okay, Lieutenant General Samnovs, then let them take it. Ma Wei said on the phone in a faint voice. As for the South Koreans, can they handle the nuclear reactor well. Mavi knew they were probably okay.
Because back in the 70s, South Korea carried out the development of atomic weapons with France and made great progress. According to the recollection of the secretary of the Blue House, the government at that time expected that South Korea could test the first atomic bomb in 1983. However, after the death of the South Korean president, the new ruler was forced by international pressure to terminate all research programs related to nuclear weapons.
Therefore, although South Korea does not have atomic weapons, with their research with the French, the technology to dismantle nuclear reactors still exists. Even if it really doesn't work, ask France or the United States for help, and that person will help. After all, in the spirit of humanitarianism, the nuclear leak concerns the whole world, and that is not a joke.
"Okay, Mr. Mavi, I see. "Lieutenant General Samnovs, after talking to Mavi. Pretending to obey the arrangement of his superiors, he came to the South Korean delegation and said, "Mr. Lu Yuanji, our Admiral Andres of the Baltic Fleet, is very interested in your proposal. So he'll schedule a time to meet with you. ”
You have to do a full set of plays, so that Koreans will believe it.
After listening to Vice Admiral's words, Lu Yuanji and other South Korean representatives couldn't help but glance at each other. There was a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Okay, Lieutenant General Samnovs, it's our honor to meet Admiral Andres!" Lu Yuanji said with a smile.
So 20 minutes later, the big boss in Mavi's plan, Admiral Andres, took the opportunity to appear. And after a two-week detailed discussion of back and forth. Russia's Baltic Fleet finally sold its two decommissioned Type 971 attack nuclear submarines for $1.8 billion.
The reason why it is said to have been decommissioned, it is because according to the process. Nuclear submarines need to be decommissioned early before the deal is completed.
As for the $800 million spent on dismantling the nuclear reactor, the South Korean government will bear it according to the contract. That's why South Koreans spent a total of $2.6 billion to buy two super-expensive scrap iron ships from Russia, plus two nuclear reactors that would make any country feel big.
Russia in this life, at someone's suggestion, did not dismantle all the nuclear submarine equipment very directly. Instead, it was refined, and only the key core technologies were dismantled. To put it bluntly, the Koreans do not have the scientific and technological achievements that they want to study, and they are all selectively dismantled. All that was left was ordinary elements, and intact but useless shells.
The advantage of this is that Russia will not be aware of any problems with the South Koreans when it comes to delivery.
I believe that when the South Korean scientists boarded the submarine with great interest, they planned to study it carefully. The picture that will appear at that time will definitely make them speechless, and their eyeballs will fall......
"Mr. Ma Wei, the South Korean side has already paid us the full amount. Now we are waiting for their semi-submersible ships to come to our base to tow those two nuclear submarines back to China. In return for you, we, the Baltic Fleet, have decided to order one Hyundai-class destroyer and six Hyundai-class frigates from your North Sea shipyard......" the Baltic Fleet officer said enthusiastically to Mavi on the phone.
A semi-submersible ship, also known as a semi-submersible mother ship, submerges the loading deck by adjusting its ballast water to carry specific cargo, such as drilling platforms and nuclear submarines.
Such a magical operation, I am afraid that only Ma Wei, who is shocking and crying ghosts and gods, can think of it. If they are replaced, the Russian Navy. It is estimated that at the very beginning, the proposal of the Koreans will be rejected. Then the two nuclear submarines, which were decommissioned, were thrown into the grave of the warship. Wait until you have the money to dismantle the nuclear reactor.
Therefore, to sum up, Ma Wei is tantamount to revitalizing the business that originally lost $800 million into a net profit of $1.8 billion! This entry and exit is equivalent to bringing $2.6 billion in profits to the Russian Navy. And it will not affect Russia's reputation.
After all, it was the South Koreans themselves who came to the door and said that they would help Russia, dispose of decommissioned nuclear submarines, and dismantle nuclear reactors. It was they who played "intrigues" first. It is not to blame that Russia is coming back to counteract......
"Okay, Your Excellency, thank you for your support!" Ma Wei said in gratitude on the phone. This arms business is really good, not only solving the problem of dismantling nuclear reactors. and to their own shipyards, to bring orders.
The news that South Korea spent $1.8 billion to buy two decommissioned nuclear submarines from the Russian Navy quickly spread. On TV and on the Internet, many experts, scholars, and military fans have expressed their views on this news.
For example, a South Korean military expert said excitedly on the show, "We purchased these two Type 971 attack nuclear submarines from the Russian Navy. It is tantamount to bailing out Russia and helping them survive the nuclear leakage crisis. You must know that with their financial ability, they will not be able to dismantle the nuclear reactor in a short time. So they want to thank us......"
The Korean people are sanctimonious, and that is very thorough. Calls like the above are everywhere in South Korea. Its purpose is to carry forward the great deeds that the government has done. It's not that they take advantage of the fire to rob, be greedy for small gains, and steal Russian nuclear submarine technology.
Some netizens on the Internet really can't stand the cheekiness of Koreans, "The Korean stick is too shameless, isn't it? At such a cheap price, I bought two nuclear submarines that are about to be decommissioned from Lao Maozi." In the end, he also said that he was noble. Some time ago, India spent 2.8 billion! I don't know what Russia thinks. Is this a PY deal with South Korea?"
"It's over, South Korea already has nuclear submarines, and they are Russian-made. Now with the urine sex of the stick country, the cliff is arrogant, and it has to be suffocated. Become the 6th country in the world to have a nuclear submarine. And they bought the nuclear submarine back, and then secretly learned the technology in it to develop their own military industry. The $1.8 billion is worth it. ”
……
Whether it is the opinions of those experts and scholars, or the opinions of online netizens. Most of them mean that this time South Korea has completely made money. With the current level of shipbuilding in their country, such a God-given opportunity is lacking. And the Russians are really, short of money to such an extent, that they actually resell their country's core technologies in disguise. I don't know if Koreans are white-eyed wolves.
When the time comes, they will definitely bite Russia in turn.
