"Oh, McNinner finally has a reaction!"
Xu Linyuan was a little surprised, and said, "Does Airbus have any reaction?" Last time, their president Thomas Enders came to inspect the market of their A380 and also participated in the launch of our aero engine, but there was no movement afterwards, I think most of their move was done to their old rival Boeing, to test Boeing's reaction, but Boeing was able to calm down, and there has been no movement......"
Tan Zhizhong said: "There is no representative of Airbus to come to us to make any contact with us, but I have received information that they have had a consultation with the CEOs of General Electric and Royce, but there is no specific information about what they have talked about, and I think they will soon have the next step......
Wu Yuanrui said: "In my opinion, this McNinner's visit, I'm afraid it may also be a test of Airbus, although our WFE2200 aero engine has surpassed the current advanced engines such as GP7200, but I think Boeing will not abandon their old customers, after all, General Electric, and Royce and other companies are also very strong and technical enterprises......
Xu Linyuan got up and said: "In fact, the Americans still have some contempt for us in their bones, and even some resistance to the development of our enterprises in the United States, if it weren't for the cooperation of General Motors and DDC, they helped us do some work, I am afraid that our engine business in North America has always been secretly resisted by the US government, restricting our development."

Although our technology and products are world-leading, no one can surpass them, but it will take time for Americans to accept them, so we have to force them to accept it with great strength.
So I think that this cunning old guy's visit to China is still a cover, and it is for Airbus to see, and he also wants to test where Airbus's bottom line is......"
When Tan Zhizhong and Wu Yuanrui walked out with Xu Linyuan, Tan Zhizhong said: "I have a very deep understanding of the old fox McNeina, the competition between the two is a dog-eat-dog affair on the surface, but in fact, if we want to reach a strong cooperation with Bombardier and Embraer this time, because it will affect the interests of these two companies, they will secretly unite to interfere and obstruct ......"
"They are competing for the market of civil aircraft, and we are doing aero engines, that's all......" Xu Linyuan suddenly said this sentence and walked out of the room. {{}}
Tan Zhizhong listened to Xu Linyuan's words, and couldn't help but smile lightly and nodded, feeling that this sentence was very subtle, Wu Yuanrui and Xi Zi glanced at each other, and their eyes were quite approving.
After a few people left the room, they came to the multi-functional conference hall on the fifth floor without delay.
Because today's tripartite talks are a formal conversation and a non-public conversation, reporters will not be allowed to interview the talks, and only the final conclusions will be announced to reporters and the media.
Xu Linyuan brought their people to the conference hall, and without the harassment of media reporters, he felt much quieter.
When they entered, they saw that Bonaldo and his entourage, as well as Budoan and his entourage, were already talking happily in the conference hall, and the atmosphere seemed to be more harmonious. {{}}
After Xu Linyuan entered, Budoon and Bonaldo nodded to him, and a young lady in charge of etiquette led them to their corresponding positions and sat down.
Buduoang waited for Xu Linyuan to sit down, and after the hostesses brought up coffee, tea and other beverages and withdrew, they nodded to Xu Linyuan and Bonaldo respectively, and the talks officially began.
As soon as the meeting began, the people around each chairman began to take out some information, and there was a record of responsibility.
It was Xi Yan who served as Xu Linyuan's translator.
Budogan started first, and after the people around him were ready, he began to ask questions, and said: "Mr. Bonaldo, in the field of civil aircraft manufacturing, the Brazilian aviation industry is also very powerful, but at present, Boeing and Airbus have monopolized the world's large-scale civil airliner projects, although we have reached a strategic partnership with the Future Group, but in the development of large passenger aircraft, we still have a certain gap with Boeing and Airbus, please Mr. Bonaldo talk about Embraer's future civil airliner market, and your knowledge of yourself......"
Hearing Budoan's words, Bonaldo spoke; "In recent years, Embraer has been committed to the research and development of new, energy-saving civil airliners, we have launched the ERJ series in the market of regional and trunk airliners is very successful, and currently has a good reputation and evaluation in the global market, and in the research and development of large passenger aircraft, we have launched the research and development project of the EXPU series of medium and large civil transport aircraft, we have a new breakthrough in wing, as well as frame and structural design......"
As he spoke, Bonaldo nodded to the assistant next to him, who immediately got up and sent a document in hand to Xu Linyuan and Buduoang respectively. {{}}
"Two, this is our market analysis report on passenger aircraft and transport aircraft projects in recent years, as well as our design analysis table for the EXPU series of civil aircraft, and the results of our comparative analysis with the Boeing 7x7 series, please ......take a look at it."
Xu Linyuan did not look at their market analysis report, but looked at the design analysis chart of their EXPU series, and compared it with the Boeing 747 and Boeing 737 series passenger aircraft, the expected performance of their design is slightly higher than about 13.4%, and this is also a predictive analysis based on the use of Pratt & Whitney's GP7200 as a backup engine. {{}}
In addition, they also have their own ET.O series of aero engines, which also list some shortcomings and deficiencies of their series of engines, which cannot be compared with Pratt & Whitney's GP7200, and naturally cannot be compared with the WFE2200 of the Future Group.
After reading this information, Xu Linyuan already knew it, so he pushed it to Tan Zhizhong next to him, and after Tan Zhizhong picked it up, he looked at it very seriously.
When the two sides looked at these materials and privately exchanged and discussed them with the people of their respective think tanks, Bonaldo did not continue, but quietly watched the two sides discuss.
After Tan Zhizhong read this information, he said to Xu Linyuan: "Before the arrival of Mr. Bonaldo this time, I have learned about their situation, this aviation industry manufacturing enterprise, they are very outstanding in comprehensive industrial manufacturing capacity, and since World War II, the United States and Western countries have not imposed a technological blockade on them, and their country has made ......great progress in industrial development through technological development and innovation."
Speaking of this, Tan Zhizhong said in a low voice: "It's just that this embraer they represent the interests of the entire Brazilian country, if even if they can reach tripartite cooperation this time, this is only the intention reached by the three parties on cooperation, and if you really want to make decisions, I'm afraid that Mr. Bonaldo will not be able to make some decisions on cooperation projects, which may depend on their national high-level through political channels......
After a pause, Tan Zhizhong glanced at Budoang, and saw that Budoang was also whispering with his old classmate Donaldo, and said: "Speaking of which, there is a problem, that is, there will be many interfering factors in the cooperation project realized through political negotiations, such as the US government does not want their national corporate interests to be damaged, and may exert some pressure on the Brazilian government, thus interfering with this trilateral cooperation, and even if it can be realized, because of their different natures, It's also hard for us to get something we want from it, so we won't get more benefits from whether or not these three parties can be reached, after all, political negotiations are often tedious and time-consuming......"
After listening to Tan Zhizhong's analysis, Xu Linyuan just said indifferently: "We don't have to pay attention to them through political negotiations, let them negotiate with each other, but we have to offer favorable conditions for us, which is the basis for cooperation, I think what Budoan and Donaldo talked about, it is almost the same, since Embraer wants to join, then they must come up with something that can benefit both of us!" ā
As expected, at this time, after discussing with Donaldo and others, he said to Bonaldo: "Mr. Bonaldo, please allow me to ask a very practical question, we have reached a cooperation project with the future group, and you are interested in joining in to achieve tripartite cooperation, I think on this basis, what kind of benefits can we get from your joining?" ā
Bonaldo had expected that someone would bring up the issue, and it can be said that their addition was indeed a bit sudden, and some far-fetched.
Although Embraer is outstanding in terms of comprehensive R&D and manufacturing capabilities, they do not have the world's leading technology in a single field like Bombardier, which can be comparable to Boeing and Passenger Company, nor do they have the world's leading position in aerodynamic engines like Future Group, which can surpass Pratt & Whitney and General Electric.
But Bonaldo believes that their biggest advantage is their comprehensive design ability and manufacturing level, which cannot be compared with the two companies.
Therefore, Bonaldo said confidently: "We can provide resources for the two companies to coordinate and complement each other, and provide integrated design solutions, presumably with our comprehensive design and manufacturing capabilities, this is the biggest benefit that the two companies can get!" ā
Xu Linyuan grasped the key point of Bonaldo's words and said: "Then may I ask Mr. Bonaldo, what do you mean by resource coordination and complementarity, is it reciprocal complementarity, or are you willing to take out the projects you have advantages to coordinate the two companies, and I would like to ask Mr. Bonaldo, can you directly make such relevant decisions without other factors such as political factors?" ā
"Hmmm......"
Xu Linyuan's point-to-point question made Bonaldo fall into deep thought......
