Chapter 279: Kazan Buys a Plane
Bidding farewell to Yekaterinburg, still carrying the medal of a veteran, the brother and sister continued their journey to Kazan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Now the convoy has entered Europe, the Ural Mountains have been driven far away, and the convoy has safely entered the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan. This small state within the federation is inhabited mainly by Europeanized Turkic peoples, who are also Mongols but tend to be Turkic.
There is no more time for carambola about the cityscape of Kazan, now the purchase of a plane is a top priority, Pugachev has already contacted the Miri Design Bureau, and the relevant personnel are already waiting in the square of the railway station.
The Engineer always seems to be bald, and this joint engineer named Goliath is exactly that. He did not shy away from it, but was full of joy, just selling one aircraft is a great thing for the entire design bureau and the factory, and there is no need to wait, now the hangar is in stock.
"I heard that you are from Tuva, which is a distant place, and it seems to be very poor at all due respect."
Pugachev handed him a cigar and lit it and said: "Now Russia is not poor in Moscow, Leningrad and Yeka. β
"Hah! Leningrad, I thought no one was calling that name anymore. However, there are still a lot of Soviet-era aircraft in the factory, which can be used after overhauling. β
He noticed that there were still a few people with exotic faces in the car, and the word Khitan popped out of his mouth. "You're not just representing Tuva, you're a company. Now in these years, there are not many companies willing to buy our factory aircraft, that is, the army buys it diligently, and we can still live a good life. β
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia's military industry was hit hard, because she did have a very complete industrial chain during the Soviet era, but all kinds of equipment were scattered throughout the country, among which the shipyards of the Navy were mainly in Ukraine, and Russia was strong in building aircraft. It is also for these reasons that a large number of tanks were abandoned in the graves, numbering more than 10,000, and there were also some old ships of the navy, and the dismantling was also a big project, and they were simply thrown out of sight and in the extremely cold bay that no one knew about.
The car soon arrived at the Miri Design Bureau, and the relevant officers received the people of the convoy.
The same middle-aged man who thought he was bald, he claimed that Popov was a higher-level leader, and he wore a suit and tie and looked dignified.
The convoy stopped at the entrance to the banquet hall of the design bureau, and the star fruit jumped out of the car first, causing Popov to be surprised. The star fruit had already changed into the silk dress she carried, and the temperature had climbed to more than ten degrees at noon. She walked up to the middle-aged man and bowed slightly, "Hello, I am Besika from the Republic of Tuva, and Besika from Pugachev Besika Heavy Industries. β
"Oh? You're a kid! β
"Yes, I'm a kid and I'm an engineer. I'm from China, I'm here for the Miri Design Bureau, and you're going to take tens of millions of dollars from me this time. β
At this time, everyone got out of the car, and Pugachev showed his intention. After Chu Hua got out of the car, he talked to this Popov again, and immediately everyone entered the warm hall.
The business meeting started at two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was a very formal meeting with a lot of people, and in front of star fruit was a whole bunch of balding and non-balding guys, and she knew that most of them were engineers.
The atmosphere in the venue was a little solemn, and the star fruit knew that she could feel what the group of people on the other side were trying to write. It would cost millions of dollars to buy one, and in her heart she wanted to buy a lot. The two groups of people stared at each other, and in the end, the engineer couldn't hold back: "We have a lot of aircraft here, I don't know which one you want to buy, how many you want to buy." β
"Of course it's the Mi-17, I love this plane." Carambola stood up, her short body growing much taller from sitting to standing.
Popov hesitated slightly, and didn't say much about the identity of the client, Goliath, he only knew that there were three businessmen here, and two of the Chinese children were also businessmen. "We don't have such an aircraft as the Mi-17, but we have an improved Mi-171. Secondly, I'm very interested in your identity, what exactly are you buying these planes for, you can't use them for military purposes. β
Da Ming sighed that this is used both for military and commercial purposes. Pugachev took the opportunity to say: "Just a few months ago Tuva was attacked by a gang of bandits, the defenders of Tuva were militarily poor and too few in number, and we moved troops to Irkutsk, and the first troops came by helicopter. Military aircraft have been of great help to our country's banditry, and I must know that in addition to being a businessman, I am also the Minister of Energy of Tuva. β
Popov nodded and continued to ask, "In that case, why do you still invite two Chinese businessmen here?" With all due respect, these two are children, and you don't seem to be joking. β
Daming has always been disgusted with others that his age is judged, there are many people who have made contributions at a young age in history, and they have received special help to have today, of course, they are also quite hard. "Wouldn't you like to work with China? Money is not an issue. My sister and I are indeed businessmen from China, our family has our own company, and more importantly, we have a lot of exchanges with the big people in China. You don't have to say anything about legitimate trade. β
"Okay, I'm overthinking, so how many planes do you want, if you continue to like the Mi-171, this kind of aircraft is eight million dollars each, if you want to buy it now, there is a stock in the hangar."
The situation has changed a little bit, and since the Mi-171 is an improved version of the original Mi-17, it is even better. "Then let us think about it." Da Ming said euphemistically.
The main purpose of buying the plane this time is to use it for daily cargo transportation, and secondly, star fruit hopes to contribute to the country in the event of the doomed flood this summer, after all, the country has too few helicopters.
For Pugachev, buying a plane was completely dispensable, and the three of them only used the name of the Republic of Tuva to make the purchase more convenient, so he did not interfere with the Chinese communication of the two children.
"I think it's good to buy five, five is 40 million US dollars, and we don't have to make money digging oil now." Carambola Road.
"Isn't five too much, don't you still want to buy Mi-26, it's not very convenient to transport excavators when there is a flood, and it doesn't make more sense to buy so many low-range ones. And what about pilots? β
He suddenly remembered that the horse may be a good rider, and it is really a bit troublesome to buy too much. "Oh, it's okay for us to be so rich now that we have a few more pilots."
"Okay, I don't object to you, as long as you don't build an aviation brigade to burn money." Da Ming simply came from his sister's thoughts, and as soon as the star fruit stretched out five fingers in her little hand, she looked at Popov. "ΠΏΡΡΡ (5)"
"Five, five is forty million dollars, are you sure?" Popov said calmly, while the other engineers began to stir.
"Yes, it's five, Mr. Pugachev will definitely agree." Carambola smiled and glanced at Pugachev, the old hairy applied for a smile that acquiesced. "The Russians don't like to be pretentious, and I can sign the purchase contract on behalf of our group, and if we want 40 million dollars, we can immediately get it from the accounts of our Swiss bank. Of course, according to international practice, we want to visit your hangar to see the planes first, and even we want to experience the fun of flying. β
Popov said that he completely agreed, and the star fruit smiled and said that he did not rule out the possibility of buying more aircraft.
