273 Two hundred and fifty million forty thousand dollars
After three days of pause, the negotiations were restarted again.
What made the members of the U.S. negotiating team uneasy was that Liu Yijiu was still the negotiator, and Zheng Hao, the original deputy negotiator, was replaced, while the other Chinese officials who participated in the negotiations were still replaced.
This young man's backstage is really hard enough!
They don't have a problem with who they negotiate with, as long as they get what they want.
What's more, as long as he has a good relationship with Liu Yijiu, this young man, with a little use, will be able to achieve many of their goals.
"Liu, regarding the negotiation of the aircraft, I think it should be continued after we have tested the performance and strength of the titanium alloy you provided, you have no opinion on this, right?" Everyone had no idea except for the fact that after hearing that Liu Yijiu was still the person in charge of the negotiation at the beginning, they were a little shocked by his backstage hardness.
"That's fine, but I think that although these materials are provided to you for testing, it is not very easy for us to produce, and the cost of producing in a laboratory environment is also very high. According to our production costs, each ton of this new titanium alloy costs 200,000 US dollars, and you need to pay at least 40,000 US dollars for 200 kilograms ......of material," Liu Yijiu said very seriously.
$40,000, that's money!
The other party was stunned, and immediately readily agreed.
Tens of millions can afford to spend, let alone 40,000 dollars. Moreover, it is very likely that they will only pay $20,000 to obtain the titanium alloy production process and recipe that is far more expensive than them.
The $200,000 a ton of titanium alloy is half cheaper than the one they use, and the performance is much higher.
They will never know that the real cost of the titanium alloy process that Liu Yijiu said is less than 200,000 yuan a ton. Even the cheapest titanium alloy on the civilian market after entering the 21st century is not so cheap.
Military, naturally, will be higher.
"Liu, about your kind of missile production technology. There is also the technology for the production of cloud burst bombs...... "For the performance of this young man, the Americans are very sorry.
For some small things, are very shrewd, and in the big picture. There is simply no shrewdness that he shows.
Thankfully, they took this young man very seriously at the beginning.
Judging from their analysis these days, the unit where this young man is located should be a military technology base hidden in the southwest mountains by the Chinese side, and many people's achievements should have been fraudulently claimed by him. If nothing else, it's just a variety of firearms. From the technical demonstration to the final experiments, it is not possible to complete in a short time.
Not to mention anti-tank missiles, the Chinese are not very good at all in infrared technology, the manufacture of optical instruments and electronic instruments, the technical ability is not strong, and he can make such a thing in just one year, which is really a bit against the sky.
Especially something like a cloudburst bomb, can it be done in a short period of time?
"There is no problem with this, as long as the conditions you give are high enough. I told you about it last time. This negotiation must be done according to my rules. With the equipment on the list, in addition, 20 million dollars will definitely not work, and you have seen the power of this weapon. The reason why I only asked for 20 million dollars at the beginning was because I had 10 XM1 tanks and 20 F14s on the list, and as a result, negotiations on the aircraft were suspended, and 10 M1 tanks finally you solved the problem for only 25 million dollars. Now that this has been agreed. We Chinese talk counts, and we will never talk about this again......" Liu Yijiu is still very mature.
It's just that he is mature in the eyes of Americans. It's what it shows.
If you hadn't experienced the events of the past few days, if you didn't know that he was a second generation who relied on his father-in-law to run rampant, Americans would not think that he had any opinion on these statements.
From the analysis of these things, it is reasonable for this guy to ignore the rules of negotiation and not talk about the morality of negotiation. What else to say he was busy. It is estimated that they are busy trying to find ways to snatch their fruits from other people, and make political capital for themselves to rise.
If China is still implementing a military rank system, it is possible that this young man will become the youngest general in China.
Red China, everything is possible.
"Liu, we believe in your ability and your status to let us see. There are some problems with the equipment on this list, 100,000 times the electron microscope, this is no problem, but 200,000 times or even higher, we don't have it, even the German Carl Zeiss company doesn't have it...... Of course, the cost of this electron microscope is very high......" Mister first patted Liu Yijiu on the back, and then said very embarrassed.
200,000 times the electron microscope, they are not without, but it is absolutely impossible to give China.
This is the most top-of-the-line equipment.
Even if it is 100,000 times, they are only ready to give China a 80,000 times or even 50,000 times the number of charges, and when the time comes, just modify the parameters marked on it.
Liu Yijiu talked to them that they needed to change their strategy.
It is very necessary to spend some money and build a good relationship with the real power of the Chinese government, and it is also very much in line with the interest of the United States to pay a small cost and get more returns......
"Two hundred million dollars." Liu Yijiu lightly spit out this number.
"How much?" Mister felt that he hadn't heard the number clearly, and the others thought that Liu Yijiu was joking.
After getting Liu Yijiu's pit answer, even Thompson's face was very ugly.
"Liu, you have to know that this weapon is not a nuclear weapon, it is not worth that much at all, and we only invest a few million dollars a year in it......" Mister said with a sneer. Our government would never agree to us spending so much money on a technology ...... that we already have."
"Really? Mr. Mister, your government first developed the oil and gas bomb just to open up a helicopter airport in the dense forests of Vietnam, and then accidentally discovered the power of this weapon on the battlefield, and began to invest heavily every year, and just last year, your government invested 80 million dollars in this alone, right? And do you think that within three years, we will be able to develop a new generation of cloudburst bombs with the same power as us? Even if it comes out in three years, you haven't saved the cost, and there are still three more years......" Liu Yijiu said with a look of disdain.
Liu Yijiu remembers the Americans' research investment in the cloud burst bomb very clearly.
This thing just happened by accident. And the amazing performance on the battlefield in Vietnam made the Americans very enthusiastic about this, and in the end, it made this unexpected weapon the most powerful super conventional weapon under nuclear weapons!
"This thing is the most powerful conventional weapon besides nuclear weapons. At the beginning, the warhead charge in our 130 rocket launchers was very small, and what if the five hundred kilograms of aerial bombs were all this thing, or a one-ton super bomb? Nuclear weapons are indeed powerful, even small nuclear warheads, even more powerful than this. But do you dare to use it on the battlefield? And this kind of can be used with confidence. We used it on the battlefield in Vietnam, and what if the Soviets knew about it? Can they protest? There is no radiation, there is no impact on the environment......" Liu Yijiu said is the truth.
The Americans were silent.
The value of this weapon technology is much more than that.
Being able to spend $200 million to obtain this technology is very cost-effective for them in terms of technology research and development and time cost.
But they really don't want the Chinese to take advantage of this.
"If you are really embarrassed, we don't need to discuss this project......" Liu Yijiu saw that the Americans were silent, and he didn't bother to talk to them anymore.
It's not that he doesn't want a higher price, it's that he knows that beyond that, it's simply impossible.
Now it's just the beginning, you can't scare the Americans from the beginning, you must make them feel that they are worth the money, the Chinese are stupid, and later they will send a lot of money for some technology in his hands. In the former world, the Yankees had pitted the Republic so badly, and now Liu Yijiu had to take back some benefits from them first.
Don't talk about it?
That's impossible.
The Americans came this time, mainly for the cloud burst bomb, and learned that the Chinese have a new type of cannon steel in their hands, which can produce pure tungsten powder with a purity infinitely close to 100%, and there is also a cheap and high-performance titanium alloy production process and formula, which is definitely a very unexpected surprise for them.
Cloudburst bombs, must be obtained.
After two days of arduous negotiations between the two sides, the Americans finally agreed to import the technology of producing cloudburst bombs using solid thermal agents from the unit represented by Liu Yijiu at a price of $180 million.
At this point, the negotiations between the two sides have come to an end for the time being.
Liu Yijiu received a total of $25.04 million in funding from the Americans, and at the same time, he also obtained a batch of research equipment that they urgently needed. Although this money is not much, it is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for Chinese who have a salary of fifty or sixty in this era. Even in terms of the proportion of state fiscal revenue, it occupies a large share.
And the Americans, although they look like they have suffered a loss on the surface, are actually laughing in their hearts.
For only 200 million dollars and for them not to be important, the total price of tens of millions of dollars of equipment, from the Chinese to exchange several technologies, these technologies, any kind, the profits will be countless times this money!
So, after the agreement was finally reached, both sides were very happy. (To be continued.) )
