The Canadian, who was shown off, had to obediently lead the convoy and lead the way in front. Mavi was soon led to their Ministry of Defense building.

To say that Canada's Ministry of Defense buildings are generally not magnificent, nor are they old, and they are decent. Their annual military spending is only 1.2% of the country's GDP. In a huge country, the number of navies does not exceed 10,000. To put it mildly, even the Malaysian Navy can't beat it.

After all, Malaysia has ordered 28 new frigates from Russia. This combat power went straight up.

Ten minutes later, when Mavi entered the Canadian Department of Defence, he was in the conference hall. At this time, he saw that there were already representatives of several countries sitting in the conference hall. For example, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Italy, and so on.

It can be seen from their expressions that these countries are very concerned about Canada's international bidding. After all, there is no country that is not impressed by the super large order of more than 18 billion US dollars.

With the appearance of Ma Wei, some representatives of various countries who were nervously preparing showed vigilant looks. The shopping mall is like a battlefield, there is no sloppiness at all, everyone here is an opponent, either you overturn me, or I overturn you, there is no emotion to talk about.

Ma Wei looked at the vigilant eyes of everyone, and he could almost tell from these eyes which countries were destined to be eliminated. For example, the United Kingdom, France, Italy and other European countries have a somewhat fearless expression. They have always had a good relationship with Canada. Although it is not possible to say that it is determined, it is also highly probable.

As for the book, South Korea and other countries are completely soy sauce. No matter how hard they try, no matter how much they give preferential plans. In the end, they all appeared on the list of losers.

Ma Wei sat down in the venue by himself, ignoring the eyes of others. Seriously, Ma Wei really didn't have a way to win this huge order. He came here to participate, or to travel to Canada.

Five minutes later, the international tender officially began. The person in charge of presiding over the tender ceremony was Canada's Minister of National Defense, Jackson. First of all, he expressed his sincere gratitude to so many countries for participating in the tender. Then I talked about some of the content of the project.

"I won't say more here, and when the bidding projects were announced, they were listed in detail. Now I would like to hear from the representatives of all parties, for our Royal Canadian Navy, what good solutions can be provided by this tender?" asked the Secretary of Defense, Jackson, from the stage.

The plan he asked was only a preliminary plan provided by various countries for their reference at the Canadian Ministry of Defence. This can be said to be the first impression of each country, which is very important in general.

When I heard about the presentation of the plan, I saw that the representatives of some countries in the audience, such as Ben, South Korea, India, the Netherlands, etc., were all full of energy and wanted to perform well in the next link.

First of all, the representative of the shipyard, a middle-aged man in a gray suit and a short stature. In his non-standard, accented English, he said in the hall, "Dear Secretary Jackson, I am from the Aichi Shipyard...... Here I would like to introduce to your country our proposal...... On the premise of ensuring quality, it can save your country nearly 6 billion in expenditure. The total amount of the project is expected to be around 23.9 billion US dollars. ”

The representative of Captain Ben gave a 15-minute introduction in the hall. The approximate advantages can be summed up as saving money and at the same time not compromising the quality of the completed order. It's a price war, and that's what they say they're good at.

The Canadian Minister of Defense, Jackson, nodded with interest after listening, and judging from his expression and reaction, he seemed to be very satisfied with the plan of the Aichi Shipyard.

At this time, the representatives of the Korean shipyard and the Indian shipyard in the audience felt a little panicked that Rarity was uneasy. The plan that the two countries came up with is similar to the one, which is based on meeting the conditions and starting from the price aspect to make themselves more advantageous.

It's just that South Korean shipyards and Indian shipyards can't save 6 billion expenses. The total amount of the project is 26 billion and 26.5 billion respectively.

Ma Wei quietly looked at the expressions of the representatives of various countries and the Minister of National Defense. For him, what he saw in front of him was nothing more than a huge farce. Even if the shipyard reduces the quotation to 20 billion, or even lower. In the end of the bidding, it is always those countries that win.

And the Canadian Minister of Defense is also cooperating with the performance, and he actually knows the meaning of the top in his heart.

When the representative of the shipyard finished talking about his country's plan. This was followed by a representative of the French shipyard, "Minister Jackson, it is my honor to introduce to your country the latest Horizon-class frigate of our French Navy. It has a full load displacement of 7,956 tons, a length of 168.87 meters, a broadside width of 23.3 meters, and a draft of 6.1 meters...... This corvette, our latest French development, is very suitable for this tender of your country. Counting other ships...... Our offer in France is $29.5 billion. ”

France's latest Horizon-class frigate was originally to be finalized in March 2004. But not long ago, the combined fleets of France and South Korea ate turtles in the waters of the Far East. It had a great impact on the reputation of the French Navy. So they had to speed up the process.

After listening to the quotation of the French shipyard, the representative of Captain Ben couldn't help but show a relieved expression. The $29.5 billion offer is a full 5.6 billion more than them. If the Canadian Ministry of National Defense has a bit of brains, according to common sense, it should be very likely that they will choose their own side to cooperate.

And he also estimated that those countries in Europe should be similar to France, and the price will not be very low, at least more than 27 billion US dollars.

Similar to what he expected, the next British shipyards, Italian shipyards, and Dutch shipyards quoted projects to 31.5 billion, 28.9 billion, and 29 billion respectively...... And judging from its meaning, it seems that there is not much room for downward adjustment of this offer.

Seeing this situation, the happiest person on the field was the representative of the shipyard. They are very confident in winning the Canadian order this time. I even can't wait to share this good news back to China.

At present, the vast majority of countries have finished their preliminary plans. The rest of the field, only representatives of the Russian side, are the most threatening and competitive. Therefore, representatives of shipyards such as Ben, South Korea, India, and the Netherlands all focused their attention on a certain Russian youth.

They all want to know what kind of plan the Russians can give this time.
