Chapter 255: Northrop's Thoughts
It was almost impossible, but in another way, there is another way out, 40 million dollars to buy all the technology, you don't buy it, well, 20 million dollars to buy some key technologies, and the remaining 20 million I will stay and copy it myself, we are not without this ability.
This is the way of the poor, although it is a little unkind and violates the rules of the international game, but so what, let's do it, what can you do, what intellectual property rights do you need for military products, and besides, we haven't started copycats yet.
Back in the hotel, everyone was relieved, and Yang Hui's visit to the United States this time was absolutely smooth, and the model aircraft happened to be here, using the manpower of the negotiation team to organize a bidding meeting, and successfully opened the American market.
As for the 10 million US dollars approved by the base, only 6 million US dollars were used to introduce gear transmission technology, and the remaining 4 million US dollars were still explained.
It was already waiting, waiting, and finally waiting until nine o'clock in the evening, Yang Hui dialed the phone from the other side of the world, and after countless delays, the transfer was finally received in China.
Director Bai came to the office early in the morning, and even the magpies on the side of the road didn't listen, and Director Bai was very happy.
The turbofan-10 has been installed with the H-6 test aircraft for air testing, which is a high-altitude engine test bench launched in the local method before the high-altitude platform of the Republic was built, and it can be regarded as a major feature of the Republic.
But now there is another thing that makes Director Bai quite nerve-wracking, from the other side of the ocean, the American Northrop Company, which has nothing to do with the company, has found a base in the southwest. Of course, it would be more appropriate to call it Southwest Airlines United Company to the outside world, but this is a trivial matter. You can call it whatever you want.
Thinking back to the time when Northrop contacted the base through the Saudi side, Director Bai still didn't quite understand Northrop's intentions. It is simply unthinkable that American companies have taken the initiative to find bases to cooperate.
Northrop is the main manufacturer of military fighters in the United States, and now it is said that it will cooperate with the base and participate in the base's Super 7 project, which is simply incredible.
The last time at the Paris Air Show, Director Bai personally saw Northrop working hard to promote their F20, and now they don't continue to work on their F20, but come to cooperate with their own competitors, which is really a bit puzzling.
Puzzled, he walked to the office. Before I left the door, I heard the phone ring inside, and it was the right way to open the door quickly and answer the call.
"Hey, director? I'm Yang Hui. Now that our affairs in the United States are going well, the model aircraft and engines have been completed, I am afraid that in a few days I will be able to prepare to return to China. ”
Hearing another good news, although I don't worry about the model airplane, this is something that has been tested by the market in Europe. Gearing technology isn't too important to Nisho right now, but it's a good thing to hear that things are going well.
Hearing that Yang Hui could come back soon, Director Bai was even more happy. Because Yang Hui's return means that a lot of chores can be handed over to Yang Hui, the secretary, to deal with, and Director Bai, the general manager of the company, does not have to work hard.
But I still don't understand Northrop's actions in my heart, and if I think about it carefully, it seems that Yang Hui, the secretary general who happens to be in the United States, needs to find out the truth now. When the time comes, it can be regarded as knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent.
"It's good that things are going well, but you don't have to rush back first. Now there is another important thing you need to do, the company received a call from Northrop in the United States a few days ago. They expressed their intention to cooperate with our Super 7 fighter. ”
Before he finished speaking, Yang Hui's head exploded, what is going on now, why did Super Seven get involved with Northrop again, this is not the script of the previous life at all.
Since the reopening of the Republic, there has been the F16/79 from General Motors, and this matter is not expected to be talked about. But the last time I returned to China, I heard that McDonnell Douglas was interested in the J-82 project, which was a bit weird, not only the Peace Pearl Project was two years ahead of schedule, but even the original American contractor was replaced by McDonnell Douglas.
These have already made Yang Hui begin to wonder if the script of the original time and space has changed, and this time he heard that Northrop was preparing to participate in the base's Super Seven project, which made Yang Hui even more suspicious.
Let's not talk about this historical change, just talking about the current situation, it seems that Yang Hui vaguely feels something different, the peace pearl project in advance, Northrop, which has never appeared in the first place, intends to participate in the development of Super Seven, how can there be Americans everywhere.
Northrop is now involved in the Super Seven project, so how should Northrop's own F20 project be explained, the more I think about it, the more confused I become, this is a bit too much information
"Hey, Yang Hui, are you listening to me? When you hear it, you respond. ”
Yang Hui, who was in deep thought, was suddenly awakened by Director Bai's words, and then hurriedly replied: "Listen, listen, you continue, we just talked about Northrop Company." ”
Confirming that Yang Hui was listening to himself, Director Bai continued to talk, and some things should be told to Yang Hui first, lest Yang Hui would not have a bottom when he went to Norilope.
As for the cooperation opinions of the Rothrop side, the caliber of the base is not quite consistent now, some people advocate cooperation, some people advocate continuing the original plan, and Director Bai is in charge of the engine, and there is no clear opinion on these, so
"Yang Hui, listen, now you can pack up and go to Northrop to contact Northrop in detail to inquire about what Northrop means, but you have to remember. You are just inquiring about the news now, don't reveal any of your own opinions, now the high-level of the base, the high-level of the army, and the imperial capital Nanhai have not yet come down to the bottom of the opinion. ”
These words are so obvious, why Yang Hui still doesn't understand, that is, there is still a debate on this matter in China, and he can't make a decision, and he can't have any point of view, and it is the biggest bottom line for him to inquire about the news on behalf of the company.
Silently wrote this down in his heart, Yang Hui was a little interested in this Northro, since he sent himself to inquire about the news, then Yang Hui was willing to do this well, as for whether to cooperate or not, Yang Hui himself still can't make up his mind, let alone Yang Hui to express his views indiscriminately.
"Don't worry, director, I understand this, I'll pack my bags tomorrow and go to find out what Northrop is up to, I won't give my opinion randomly, I only brought my ears to go."
Hearing Yang Hui's assurance, Director Bai was relieved, for Yang Hui, an excellent young man, Director Bai was very relieved, otherwise he would not have handed over such an important matter to Yang Hui.
Nodding and finally instructing Yang Hui: "Okay, you and Hongdu will hand over and prepare to go to Northrop." There is no problem for them to do the things after the TFE731 is launched, as for the gear transmission technology that you have never forgotten, I will greet them, and they will definitely introduce it back to you in good condition. ”
Hearing Director Bai's words, Yang Hui himself was a little embarrassed, now the base is so short of money, and he still insists on introducing the gear transmission technology, thinking that the current senior management of the base has not yet figured out the purpose of this technology.
