Chapter 221: The shameless third brother
There is no way, the configuration of the improved version of the Type 037 hunting submarine mentioned by Meng Jianye is too high, with a waterjet propulsion system, towed sonar, and hull sonar, which is already the core configuration of an anti-submarine frigate and even a destroyer.
That's all sky-high ships with a price of more than $200 million at every turn, which is not to say that the tonnage of these ships is worth this price, but that the set of anti-submarine equipment is really too expensive.
The improved Type 037 submarine hunting model with such a configuration may not reach a sky-high price, but it will never give Bangladesh a cabbage price like the basic model.
Not to mention anything else, the price of that towed sonar alone is more expensive than the basic model of the Type 037 hunting submarine, where can Bangladesh afford it?
Since you can't afford it, you can only ......
"Eight million four thousand dollars, and the offer for the anti-submarine reinforced version with the addition of these equipment is also only eight million four thousand dollars. ”
"Wait, what did you say?"
Just when Ibri Khan was about to give up a little unwillingly, Meng Jianye's introduction also came to an end, but it was the last quote that made the gloomy Ibri Khan shine again: "How much is the price of the anti-submarine enhanced version? 8.4 million US dollars?"
Ibri Khan's voice was a little loud, and his face twitched unnaturally, with that black and brown skin, it was really a little scary, Meng Jianye seemed to be really frightened by Ibri Khan's actions, and quickly explained: "If you think it's expensive, you can lower it a little more......"
"How much can it go down?"
Before Meng Jianye finished speaking, Ibri Khan couldn't wait to ask.
"If we don't use the latest hull sonar and follow our copy of the Soviet 'Tamir' sonar, we can reduce it by 400,000 dollars. ”
"Are you sure?"
"It should be fine. Meng Jianye nodded very seriously.
However, this time Ibri Khan did not ask any more, but frowned tightly and began to groan, you must know that the basic type of the Type 037 hunting submarine costs 6.2 million US dollars, and Meng Jianye's quotation just now is only one-third more than the basic type, but it includes almost all the key equipment of a large anti-submarine ship, which is simply ...... Picked up a big bargain.
So when Ibri Khan spoke again, his tone became very solemn: "Mr. Meng, do you have a written explanation of the anti-submarine enhanced type here, you don't need to be too detailed, just a general introduction." ”
"Yes, you wait......" Meng Jianye took out a booklet from the briefcase of the staff of the Chuandong factory next to him and handed it to Ibri Khan: "This is it." ”
Ibri Khan took it and flipped through it, and nodded with satisfaction: "We are very interested in your anti-submarine enhanced type, but I need to report to the country, I believe that the attitude of the country is the same as mine, so I also hope that Mr. Meng can slow down the construction progress of the two ships, and when the country gives me an answer, I will give Mr. Meng a satisfactory explanation." ”
At this point, what else could Meng Jianye say, he pretended to be frustrated, but he chatted with Ibrihan about some topics about the 037 anti-submarine strengthened type, and sent Ibri Khan and his party out of the East Sichuan Factory.
Waiting to see Ibri Khan's convoy disappear from sight, Meng Jianye smiled and said to Xue Qiang beside him: "Tell the finance and accounting in a few days, and the sales revenue of the Chuandong factory will increase by another 1.8 million US dollars this year!"
Xue Qiang, who was still immersed in the atmosphere of welcoming foreign guests, heard this, and immediately looked at Meng Jianye with wide eyes, his eyes full of incredulity.
Meng Jianye lit a cigarette without care: "Why are you looking at me like this? If it weren't for the fact that the old experts of the Institute of Hydroacoustics would be unable to open the pot, the profits of the East Sichuan Factory would be able to double again, there was no way, we couldn't let the old experts mix up like they couldn't even buy tea eggs, so I would give them the bulk of the two million dollars." ”
This is said to be so atmospheric, as if there are millions of dollars in front of him, Meng Jianye is like a big guy who has done a big ticket, and he gets a lot of joy.
But Xue Qiang felt that his head was a little insufficient, how could there be a net profit? And all of a sudden, it was a few million, or ...... Dollar!
"I'll just say, don't do that little bit of land in the house, open your eyes and see the world, if you can change to the commander-in-chief of the Bangladesh Navy, you know what it's like to be anxious!"
As soon as Meng Jianye saw Xue Qiang's dazed appearance, he knew that his words had shocked him again, so he hurriedly explained without pain, and just like a general who had won a battle, he hummed a little song and left.
It's just that Meng Jianye didn't explain, it's okay, this explanation, Xue Qiang is like the second monk is at a loss, why is Bangladesh in a hurry? Where is the hurry?
Xue Qiang frowned and couldn't figure it out, and when he looked up again, Meng Jianye was already about to enter the factory, and hurriedly said, "Wait, tell me why are they in a hurry?", and hurriedly chased after him......
Why the hurry?
Of course, the submarine forces of the Indian Navy are almost using the Bay of Bengal as their backyard.
Since the Third Indo-Pakistani War, India was beaten by Pakistan's submarine force, and it suddenly woke up to the fact that its seemingly powerful surface ship force was so vulnerable in front of other submarines.
As a result, anti-submarine was put on the agenda as a key construction project of the Indian Navy.
Because of this, since the 70s, India has made every effort to build its own full-ship force, and for this reason, it has purchased eight "foxtrot" class conventional submarines from the Soviet Union in one go, making India one of the few submarine powers in the world in a short period of time.
If you have a guy, you naturally have to practice well, otherwise even if you hang it up no matter how big it is, you may face the danger of hitting the street when you grind the gun, the third brother is not stupid, and he understands the truth very well.
As for why, it is very simple that the west coast of India faces the Pakistan Navy, and the third brother thinks that his rookie submarine force can't play the ace submarines of Pakistan that have experienced the baptism of war, so he simply doesn't meet you.
All of them are concentrated in the Kolkata area on the east coast, and anyway, the surrounding Bengal and Sri Lanka are all weak, and Indian submarines are naturally tossing as much as they want under the water.
India's submarines not only approached the coast of Bangladesh and threatened its national defense and security, but also activated active sonar from time to time, causing the fish on the bottom of the sea to flee one after another, causing heavy losses to Bangladeshi fishermen.
Bangladesh has not protested, but it is strange that the thick-skinned third brother can listen to it.
