Chapter 865: What a Difficult Opponent
And Jiang Chen naturally didn't expect that this Huai En would come up with such a big number, which was much more than Mike and theirs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info And more importantly, there is a field air defense battalion composed of a projectile and artillery system, an artillery regiment composed of 105 mm truck guns, and six regiments of equipment, which will be hundreds of millions of orders. It seems that this Wynne country wants to take a gamble and use these weapons to snatch those two oil fields.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen looked at Huai En and said, "Mr. Huai En, according to the list of weapons and equipment you provided, we have calculated that the total amount of the entire contract will reach more than 100 million US dollars. Considering that you are still in the midst of a war conflict, our transaction is also in accordance with the terms of the wartime arms sales contract, and you must pay us a 60 percent deposit. And for the rest, you must also complete the payment at the same time as we complete the transaction. And in order to avoid the embarrassing situation of selling the same weapon to two countries, our transaction must be carried out through a third party. Of course, you need to negotiate the conditions and costs, but one thing, for the rest, you need a third party to guarantee it. Sorry, we are a commercial enterprise and cannot afford such a risk. As for the delivery time, given the amount of equipment you need, we recommend delivering it to you in three batches, which can take a year and a half to two years in total. ā
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Huaien and his team discussed. And Jiang Chen and the others were also discussing the details of the transaction just now, because it really caught Jiang Chen and them off guard. They also did not expect that a traditionally poor country would spend such a large amount of money on foreign exchange reserves to buy weapons and equipment. Of course, in addition, you can also take out loans, buy or barter, but at this stage, our country and Jiang Chen are most lacking in foreign exchange, so they insist on using foreign exchange transactions.
After a while, I saw Huai En shaking his head at Jiang Chen and said, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry, there will be no problems with our funds." After the contract is signed, we will pay you a deposit of 60 percent, and for the other 40 percent, we can also pay the weapons when they are delivered. As for the credit guarantee you mentioned, although we are very unhappy with your proposal, in view of the actual situation, we also agree with your somewhat excessive request. It's just that in terms of delivery time, we can't wait for a year and a half to two years, the time is too long, I'm afraid that by that time Mike and they have already armed the troops. No way, we can only give you half a year, and I'm sure you can do it. Mr. Jiang, when we came, we also learned about your company, including your weapons factory and your automobile production plant, and I believe that you have the ability to produce these equipment within half a year. ā
Hearing this Huai'en's words, Jiang Chen's head shook like a rattle and shouted at Huai'en and them: "Are you joking, half a year, how is it possible." Even the advanced factories of developed countries in Europe and the United States will not be able to provide you with all this equipment within half a year. The only way it can be done is to switch to wartime production and do it at all costs. Not to mention half a year, we can do it in three months. But it comes at a high price, and can you afford it?"
After listening to Jiang Chen's words, Huaien's eyes lit up, and he stretched out a finger and said to Jiang Chen: "If you can really produce these equipment in three months, we are willing to pay an extra ten percent of the total price of these weapons and equipment as your overtime payment." ā
Hehe, Jiang Chen laughed twice and stretched out a finger to look at Huai En and said, "Double, if you can pay twice the total price, we guarantee to provide you with all the equipment you want within three months." ā
"Double, you're robbing!" Wynn said angrily.
"Yes, you're right, it's robbery. But so what, that's the price of breaking the rules. You should know that all equipment orders need to be queued, and since you have to cut the line, you should always have to pay some fees. Jiang Chen ignored the angry Huai En and said bluntly.
When Huaien heard Jiang Chen's words, he wanted to argue something, but was stopped by the people next to him. Then they had a discussion, and after about ten minutes, I saw Huai En smile at Jiang Chen and said, "Jiang, I'm sorry, I just lost my temper." But what you say is too long, and you know we are here in good faith. There are a lot of equipment in this exhibition, and many exhibitors are also very sincere, but we choose to come to you. I hope you understand. ā
"Mr. Wynne, I'm telling you the truth. This time there are more customers, so in terms of production, we are already doing our best, and it is really impossible to advance any further. Well, I can assure you here that we will try to provide you with all the weapons and equipment within a year and a half, or eighteen months. This is already our maximum, please understand. Jiang Chen nodded and replied to Huai En. In fact, the three months that Jiang Chen said just now are not impossible, but they need to work overtime. You must know that this weapon and equipment is produced periodically, and it is impossible to have orders every day. Therefore, in order to keep the factory running normally, Jiang Chen and the others need to extend the production and delivery time of this weapon as much as possible, instead of working overtime to complete the production at one time and stop work for the next time.
Hearing Jiang Chen's bottom line, Huaien exchanged a moment and then nodded at Jiang Chen and said, "Mr. Jiang, we agree with your schedule. But we hope that you will be able to deliver to us the equipment of the three infantry regiments and all the equipment needed by that artillery regiment within a year, and the rest of the remaining weapons and equipment can be delivered within eighteen months, which is also our bottom line. If you refuse, I don't think there's any need for us to talk about it anymore. ā
This time it was Jiang Chen's turn to think, after thinking for a while, Jiang Chen listened to the opinions of the other people, and then Jiang Chen looked up at Huai En and said: "All the equipment will be given to you in two batches, the first batch will be completed within one year, we will deliver the equipment of your three infantry regiments and two artillery battalions, and we will deliver the rest to you within eighteen months, which is also our bottom line." And because your production tasks are relatively tight, we won't have too many concessions on the price of weapons. ā
"No, Jiang, these are two different things, they can't be put together. Moreover, the price of your weapons and equipment is too high now, and you can buy the most advanced weapons and equipment in Europe and the United States at this price. And although yours is good, there is still a certain gap in some equipment and weapons, so we will not accept this price, and you must reduce it to show your sincerity. Wynne reacted immediately.
And Jiang Chen was not to be outdone: "No, you didn't say comprehensively, we are ahead of the West in some weapons and equipment." Don't forget, there are several patents for the equipment you purchase, which are unique to us. So on top of the price, we ććć"
