"Personally, I think we should still give us tank samples...... Liu Yijiu said in embarrassment, but there is no original insistence at this time.

Seeing that Liu Yijiu's attitude was much more relaxed, the others naturally knew that they should talk about this while the iron was hot, otherwise this kid would mess around again, ignoring the rules of negotiation, and they would be very helpless.

"Liu, it's completely unnecessary. As you also said, such heavy tanks are difficult to use on the complex terrain in your country, especially those electronic systems, your country's industrial base is difficult to study and imitate, our cooperation is not this time, if you feel the need, we can carry out a single introduction of a certain aspect of technology in the next step of cooperation. With money, you can do more projects......" Lieutenant General Thompson also thinks about Chinese.

No money, what kind of high-tech to play?

China has not even done much good at the transformation of the 59 tank, and the electronics industry is a mess, and now in such a situation, all the technology of the XM1 is given to them, not to the sample car, and the Chinese may not be able to imitate it.

The reason why they are willing to give the technology to the engine is only that the materials used in the production of the engine cannot be produced in China, and when the time comes, they want to produce it, from the most basic mining equipment, to the smelting equipment, and then the CNC machine tools for finishing and the heat treatment equipment behind it, they have to buy it from the United States.

This can be regarded as their long line fishing for big fish.

"Xiao Liu, there is nothing to hesitate about. We still have a lot of projects, and there is no money for the technical transformation and upgrading of the Jialing factory...... "Zheng Hao is worried that the money will fly at this time."

How much heartache does that have to make him?

Liu Yijiu's face changed many times, and the people on the Chinese negotiating team also felt that their best situation at present was to accept the money from the Americans, which was the most beneficial to the current Ninth Yuan. Fifteen million, moreover, the price is still negotiable.

"In that case, then we don't want tanks. However, these tanks must be converted into money, and we don't want thirty million dollars. Twenty-five million, not a penny less......" Liu Yijiu said very embarrassed, the expression on his face told everyone that he still wanted a sample of the tank.

Other Chinese officials don't understand technology. They didn't know that studying something inside the XM1 tank could quickly improve some aspects of their domestic technology.

The Americans know it, and Liu Yijiu knows it too.

In a different environment, Liu Yijiu would definitely not agree. Or that this young man has a higher status and has money in his hands, he will not agree. If the Americans want to send him away with money, it will certainly not be so easy.

Money, when it is spent, there is no more.

And once the technology is researched, they can produce as much as they want. The United States will cost more than $6 million to study this kind of tank, and the cost of producing it alone will be more than $6 million, although it is said that the more it is produced in the later stage, the lower the cost, but under the current circumstances, this cost will definitely not be low.

The cost of research is, of course, higher.

That's in billions of dollars.

"No problem. Or would we discount the price of $3.5 million per car? "As long as Liu Yijiu agrees, there is no problem.

"No, we've made big concessions. Either 25 million, or, 15 million with two prototype cars......" Liu Yijiu didn't let go of his mouth at all here.

Zheng Hao was so happy that he wanted to jump now.

Fooling the Americans, this money is too easy to come by.

The state has no money, no matter how they cheat, they have to take risks. At the same time, the state cannot give them much money. Americans have money, that's all, that's 17.5 million dollars. Look at the trend. It is also possible that Liu Yijiu will talk about 20 million.

When the time comes, they can go sideways in the nine courtyards, not to mention the ten supporting factories that are about to go bankrupt, and it will not be a problem to come to ten more.

It is better to allocate all the factories in the country to the Ninth Academy, at that time. He, Zheng Hao, is even better than those ministers......

Ignoring the rippling smile on Zheng Hao's face, the other people who were listening silently on the side were also shocked in their hearts, feeling that the money of the Americans was too easy to get, of course, they also knew that the premise was that they had to hold what the Americans wanted in their hands......

"Twenty million! Liu, these funds are the largest amount we can pay......"

"Twenty-five million, not a penny less is not to be discussed. If you think that our demands are too high, or that it is too bad for you to pay this money, then give it all to the tanks, or two tanks plus fifteen million. We have discounted each tank with a production cost of six million US dollars, which is one million US dollars less...... Liu Yijiu said through gritted teeth.

Americans want to take advantage?

Sensei.

He also thought of it temporarily, and it was to solve the problem of funding from the beginning, so he could only find a way from the Americans, and he helped the country to engage in foreign exchange if he needed foreign exchange in the country. The bigwigs above sent people from various departments to observe the negotiations between him and the Americans, and when he thought that these people had unconsciously caused the country to lose a lot of benefits, he naturally hoped to reverse the situation.

How to twist it?

Is it up to him to negotiate with the Americans alone?

This is impossible, and the only way is to tell these powerful officials that it is useless to save face, and not to pay attention to etiquette and morality in the negotiation arena. Other countries only care about interests.

Otherwise, it would have to be the same as those overthrown feudal dynasties in the past, just for a nominal rule, some small surrounding countries ostensibly submitted to the central government, and then paid tribute to some messy things that were useless to the national strength, but the state rewarded a large amount of real money and silver......

National image?

Without strong strength, this cannot be established by etiquette alone.

The republic has taken too many detours, and when he came, he hoped to influence these powerful officials through himself, who have not become the most powerful people now, and when they wait until later, this will not be necessarily. The attitude of an official determines the work attitude of the officials under him.

"This, we need to discuss it......" Seeing that Liu Yijiu insisted, the Americans did not bargain with them anymore.

Liu Yijiu nodded, and the negotiations were suspended after a stalemate for several hours.

The Americans returned to their rooms, and in order to ensure that their conversations were not overheard by the Chinese, people were arranged to stand guard outside.

"These tanks, since they can not be given to the Chinese, we cannot give them to them. Not to mention that they use our tanks to find weaknesses above and develop targeted anti-tank missiles or other weapons and equipment, in case they are short of money and sell these tanks to the Soviets, the consequences will ......" Wynn said to these bigwigs very seriously as soon as he entered the room.

"Chinese and the Soviet Union are at hostility...... "Jim thinks it's less likely.

"Before that, didn't we even restore diplomatic relations with China? China wants to engage in economic construction and international trade, but they don't have any foreign exchange reserves at home, and as for the war reparations that Japan should have for them...... "Mister thinks Jim is wrong.

Between countries, there are only eternal interests, not eternal friendship.

At that time, the Soviet Union was their ally, and together they cleaned up the Germans and the Japanese.

Now, the Soviet Union has become their enemy, and Germany and Japan have become allies of the United States, of course, Germany is only half an ally of the United States, and East Germany is still the little brother of the Soviet Union.

"General, what do you think?" It was useless to argue about this, and Mister threw the issue to Thompson.

If he agrees with this, then, there will be no problem.

The XM1 tank integrates the most advanced military technology and technology of the United States, which cannot be given to the Chinese, let alone the Soviets.

Thompson fell silent, the trade-off between the two is actually very obvious, and giving money is more convincing to Congress. Or, some of the advanced equipment that the other side must have in the back can be operated in this way. And give China some technologies that they need to invest very much to get results, and let them research them, so that they can easily make money back.

Just like the gas turbines they offer and the variable compression diesel.

"Just do what they ask, and exchange it with them for twenty-five million!" In the midst of everyone's anxious waiting, Thompson finally spoke. "Two and a half million dollars, they don't want to heat it in their hands......"

When the others heard this, they immediately burst into laughter.

The Chinese want a lot of things from the United States, and they have to pay for them.

If China had a large amount of these things in Liu Yijiu's hands, then they would not have engaged in such contact negotiations with the United States at all.

On the other side, Liu Yijiu was telling everyone why he did this.

As for the fact that he asked for money and gave up tanks, everyone else felt that it was right, after all, money was the most suitable for them. The situation in China is clear to everyone.

"Xiao Liu, I cooperated well this time, right?" Zheng Hao said shamelessly to Liu Yijiu.

At the beginning, he didn't expect Liu Yijiu to do this, and he was really very interested in the money in the hands of the Americans.

Liu Yijiu smiled and nodded, "If it weren't for the fact that I didn't think about asking for tanks in the first place, but asking for money, I would have to be killed by you." You can be regarded as a mistake, this red face sings well. ”

Zheng Hao didn't think much of Liu Yijiu's sarcasm at all.

"I just know you don't want tanks, so it's more appropriate for us to ask for money. Otherwise, the Americans would so easily agree to give money and nothing else? Zheng Hao didn't know, he had already begun to lose face.

And it's shameless in public.,It's not like saying such things in private.,It seems to be very easy and natural to say it in front of other bigwigs.。

Liu Yijiu smiled when he heard this. (To be continued.) )
