Ryan. In Bloom's living room, Gu Mojie, Lu Wenjun, and the new secretary, looked at the 1:50 high-definition ship model with great interest. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The prototypes of those big ships are more than 150 meters long, so the models are more than 3 meters long. It's just this kind of gorgeous place in the living room.

At first glance, it is very technological and futuristic.

On the side, the chief designer of the Luersen shipyard, Dr. Hank personally introduced Gu Mojie.

"Mr. Gu, you see, this is the 'Dubai' delivered at the end of the previous year, which was bought by Dubai's Ruler Al Maktoum, with a length of 158 meters, a six-story tour deck, and 13,000 tons, which is currently the most expensive, largest and best yacht in the world.

The boat is equipped with a 16-metre depth-adjustable swimming pool, a 5-storey water park fountain slide, a heavy-duty helipad, a submarine and speedboat boathouse at the stern, and a 270° hydraulic rotating viewing platform in the bow. ”

Speaking of which, Dr. Hank moves on to another model:

"This is Abramovich's 'Eclipse', 168 meters, 7 decks, 14,600 tons, which will be delivered next year, and is the largest, most expensive and best yacht currently under construction in the world." The Dubai has all the features of the Eclipse and has a speed of 27 knots.

The Eclipse is also equipped with an anti-candid laser detection and jamming system, a high-precision anti-frogman sonar system, and a terminal air defense and anti-missile system, which is definitely a collection of Germany's high-precision military technology.

The anti-candid laser jamming system uses military-grade laser blinding rays. When a 'CCD image sensor' with a digital camera device is detected within 4 km, it will counter the blow with a blinding laser, instantly burning the optics of the paparazzi's digital camera equipment.

High-precision anti-frog man sonar system, not to mention that the submarine can't get close. Even small targets such as frogmen and torpedoes can be spotted when they are close. The detection range of the torpedo is 3 kilometers, and the detection distance of the frogman is 500 meters, and it can also be used to locate and search for people who have fallen into the water.

The last terminal air defense and anti-missile system, equipped with a close defense system similar to the US Navy's 'Phalanx', is just a version made in the Netherlands, a member of our European Union, called the 'Goalkeeper' system, but the radar effectiveness and fire control accuracy are definitely not bad.

Ensure that the terminal penetration capability of the anti-aircraft / anti-ship missiles that were in service before the 80s of the US and Russian navies is not enough to break through; As for combat aircraft, as long as they dare to get closer to within 10 kilometers of this ship, it is a death. ”

Director Hank boasted about so many benefits in one breath, and did not forget to point at the model while blowing, so that Gu Mojie could know: it turned out that the white semi-circular spherical protrusions on the bow and stern of the ship and the bridge were hidden inside. They are a laser blinding system, an active phased array radar, and a "goalkeeper" near-defense and anti-missile system.

Especially the "goalkeeper" close defense system, Gu Mojie is the first time to see it, including the model. First of all, in terms of appearance, compared with the common "Phalanx" in Alien Films such as "Transformers", it looks a lot better.

Delicate, suitable for yachts.

The firepower and fire control of the two wheels are actually comparable. However, the Americans' "phalanx" pursues "maximum modular design" and "plug and play", so the gun has a big drum on its back, which looks very bloated. And the Dutch "goalkeeper" system, the ammunition supply system is completely hidden under the bottom deck of the gun, according to the practice of traditional naval guns.

The advantages and disadvantages of the two can be seen at a glance: American goods are suitable for the transformation of old ships, regardless of whether there is reserved space under the deck of the old ship, as long as the phalanx is pestle there and connected to the circuit, the price is very ugly. And the "Goalkeeper" is more suitable for the overall design of the new ship to blend into, a little disguise of the appearance can hardly be seen that there is a cannon here.

Gu Mojie wants a newly designed boat, a yacht, and of course he won't use the ugly style of the phalanx.

……

Before coming, Gu Mojie felt that he had been baptized by the "Jessica F" incident, and he was already quite knowledgeable in the circle of luxury yachts. Unexpectedly, after being baptized by Director Hank and seeing the world's highest level, I realized that I only played "historical feelings" after all.

Just like the little white gamer, the world has been developed for 70 years, and I still think that the AK-47 is the best gun on the planet.

If it's not the best, then let Ma Hua Teng add gold to that AK, and it's definitely best to continue to do so.

Thinking about it, Gu Mojie couldn't help but ridicule: "Well, that's right, this is very innocent." ”

Director Hank's English was obviously not very good, and he thought he had heard it wrong: "...... You...... What do you say? ”

"I said, it's very much in line with the style of those oil tycoons."

Ryan, who was accompanying the guests, suddenly became nervous.

Could it be that Gu Mojie's kind of "people in high-tech circles look down on oil diggers" is a cold-minded criminal, and he wants to take out the "chain of contempt" to make a comparison, right?

"Are you not satisfied with the aesthetic of the design? This can be changed......" Ryan asked carefully, accompanied by himself.

"Don't be nervous, I'll just say it casually." As soon as Gu Mojie looked up, he saw Ryan's nervous expression, and couldn't help but sneer:

"I really didn't expect Abu to spend so much money on security. If you add the RIM-9 anti-aircraft missile, will this ship be able to be used as an 'Arleigh Burke-class'? Or other 'Aegis' ships, such as the Japanese 'Kongo' or 'Atago'? ”

However, the Germans were too strict to joke.

Gu Mojie was obviously ridiculous, but Director Hank took it seriously, and explained:

"There is still a gap, the active phased array radar used by the Americans' Aegis system can monitor hundreds of targets at the same time, and track and intercept 24 of them. After all, we are a civilian version, and we can't keep up with too much. If someone really hits you with 'Granite Missiles', as long as there are more than 5 at the same time, you will definitely be finished......"

At this moment, even Lu Wenjun and Ai Wei couldn't help laughing, and they couldn't hold back and could only hide their mouths and snicker.

"Hey, do you want to be so intriguing? Applejack was just teasing. ”

Hank's channel apparently hasn't tuned back yet: "Are you kidding? No, no, no! How can the customer's security question be a joke. And we have always insisted that 'the same design does not build two ships', and we must customize it differently for each major customer. If you're worried about safety, I can give you an upgrade of the radar with the latest technology from the past two years. Then the 'Aster' anti-aircraft missile was installed.

The civilian version of the RIM-9 in the United States is not available on the market, and the same is true for Russian goods. However, as a cooperative unit in the EU, we also build warships in Luersen, and the French 'Aster' can definitely be obtained for you, as long as you give money and approval, we will get it. Of course, if you have your own channels, you want to use China's 'Hongqi-9', as long as you get it, we are responsible for helping you integrate...... However, it is estimated that after the ship is built, you will have to register it in those extralegal places, and China will definitely not be able to register this yacht. ”

"Hank! Stopped! You tech nerd! ”

In the end, it was the boss Ryan who personally roared at his technical masters. Then he turned to Gu Mojie and smiled:

"Don't look outside, that's what old Hank is. The Luerson shipyard was the shipyard that was taken by the Americans after the war. FUCHS Shipyard was spun off and established. Hank's father, who was involved in the design of the "Bismarck" and "Tirpitz", was exposed to it since he was a child, although he now mainly builds civilian ships, and occasionally goes crazy. ”

"It's okay, it's not outside. Are tech nerds all true temperament? Gu Mojie also stopped joking and resumed his attitude of serious conversation, "I just didn't expect Abu to actually add the main investment to the defense system at first, which was too surprising to me." ”

Ryan's expression was solemn, and he lowered his voice and said: "His Russian gas company has embezzled more than 20 billion US dollars of state-owned assets of the former Soviet Union, can you not be afraid of Lisboa assassinating him." If you do a clean business, you have no enemies, so of course you don't have to be afraid. I also wouldn't advise you to waste money on this.

Don't look at Abu's defense system, it is still a trivial matter to spend more than 100 million pounds on shipbuilding. In the future, it will be equipped with a lot of professional security bodyguards all year round. The ship of the Emirate of Dubai is not much smaller than him, more than 20 crew members can do it, Abu, guess what? At least 75 people! 40 of them are professionals who operate radar, close defense, sonar, electronic countermeasures, and laser blinding systems. This kind of high-end talent can't be hired without a basic salary of 500 euros a day, and the long-term expenses are not a small amount. ”

Gu Mojie didn't plan to spend money on this, but when he heard Abu's motives, he was a little tempted.

The security level around him has always been relatively low, and other people in China with assets of tens of billions are stricter than him.

But he disdains to invite those "soldier king dogs" in China, and the reason is similar to what he said when he was drinking and chatting with Klose: How many of Nima's bodyguards are serious people in China? They all studied hard when they were children and went to be soldiers.

He just doesn't like to be picked up by a set of values, even if there are really powerful talents among those people, he is not willing to take this risk.

"Then you sell ship security and introduce bodyguards? Abu's ship is also your worthy man? ”

Ryan thought for a while: "Yes and it doesn't matter, but Abu really didn't ask us for it, he himself has a group of trustworthy old Maozi subordinates." If you need it, we can introduce you, depending on how much you bid, and the grade of the introduction is not the same. ”

"What's the most expensive grade?"

"The most expensive? Among the relationships I know, the most expensive is Colonel ******. He was one of the first GSG-9 officers and personally led the team in Operation Magic Fire in Mogadishu 30 years ago. Later, he became an instructor, retired from active military duty in 98, opened a security company, and worked for 12 years.

Now the backbone of his subordinates was brought out by him when he was an instructor in the GSG-9 in the 90s. After completing 3 years of training, ordinary soldiers of GSG-9 will serve for another 7 years, and those who have not been promoted are allowed to apply for retirement placement. That kind of work is not done by people, and you can't hold it up when you're older. ”

Gu Mojie was very refreshing: "Cheng, after talking about the ship's business, we will talk about that matter, and then I will find Colonel ****** to ask for someone." ”

After chatting for a long time, Ryan. Bloom finally smiled.

Gu Mojie still fell in love with their boat after all.

Who makes Luersen's yachts always known as the number one in the world, as long as they are forced, the business will not run.

"How much budget are you going to build?"

Faced with this question, Gu Mojie did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically: "How long can you keep it a secret for me?" ”

Ryan was a little confused: "What do you mean?" ”

"The Eclipse is a ship that has been in construction for almost two years, and you can't keep it a secret from your customers, that's it. I don't want my ship to start construction and let people know the cost and parameters. See what I mean? ”

Ryan was a little embarrassed and smiled embarrassedly: "Understood, understood." ”

"Don't lie to me, I found out, the chief of Abu Dhabi wanted to surpass Abu, and he didn't place an order. If I build it first, and he asks for my parameters, and there is a bigger one than me, how long will I be the number one in the world? ”

As he spoke, he leaned forward from his seat and struck out a Daneman cigar from the oak box he was carrying.

"I spent 1 billion euros, not to buy a ship, I want to be the first in the world - what I want to reap is advertising."

Ryan was embarrassed and said, "That'...... Then we can't choose one over the other, right? The Abu Dhabi consortium will definitely give you the conditions you give...... The Abu Dhabi royal family has oil and gas reserves of four or five hundred billion US dollars. ”

"At least he doesn't know I exist, does he? I can't bear to be compared to those oil dogs. If you can't do it, then don't make it. Gu Mojie's attitude was very arrogant and almost unreasonable.

Ryan. Bloom is really embarrassed. Although he also admires the heroes of Silicon Valley and looks down on resource dogs.

"Well, I'll tell you the truth, the Dubai cost 600 million euros and the Eclipse cost 800 million 2 euros. The Abu Dhabi royal family wants to enter the market and ensure that Abramovich is clearly defeated, and it is estimated that they will close the 1 billion euro mark...... If you don't show up, we will probably recommend a billion euro proposal to him after a while.

If you want to significantly go beyond the Abu Dhabi royal family, get at least 1.2 billion euros of boats, otherwise we really can't set up a pretense gradient for them. ”

1.2 billion euros...... All of a sudden, it was half more expensive than Abramovich's "Eclipse".

Gu Mojie hesitated.

Ryan gritted his teeth and said, "I'm willing to help you, I've already sold you a lot of face." We Germans are also sentimental, respect high-tech giants, and don't like people who only dig oil. When the time comes, I will help you hide it, and then change the design so that outsiders can't see the length of the construction period of the two ships, and say that you bought it after the Abu Dhabi royal family placed an order, and you will not be offended.

I also know that there is actually a reason why the Abu Dhabi consortium and Abramovich are fighting to the death so much. Both of them are oil and gas conglomerates, and their peers are enemies.

Roman Abramovich bought the Premier League Chelsea team again, vowing every year to win the championship and who is the most expensive player to buy. Later, the Abu Dhabi consortium also bought the Manchester City team, which was the same way. The two are bitter rivals in the Premier League. So this tone is indisputable.

You're in the Internet, you have nothing to do with those people in business, and you don't buy a football team in Europe, and there is no such tone dispute. Letting you take away the world's number one record is also to let them extinguish the fire, right--I helped you because of this. ”

Gu Mojie understood this truth at once: being surpassed by people who are far away from the circle, the hatred value is not as high as being surpassed by peers. The Abu Dhabi consortium and Abramovich are heavily vertically rivaled in both oil and Premier League circles, and it is normal for blood to smell.

And if Gu Mojie buys a super awesome yacht, it is estimated that only Microsoft co-founder Paul. Eren would be angry, or maybe whoever was going to do it, the owner of Oracle, who was also a yacht maniac.

Ryan. Bloom's words are already very sincere, and the first time I met Gu Mojie, I was able to talk about this, which was also heartfelt. Or maybe he's in a hurry to grab the big customers in this new circle.

It's not like the Luersen shipyard has never sold Silicon Valley's most iconic superyachts: the most expensive yacht in the IT world today is none other than Paul J. Allen's "Octopus", which cost more than 300 million US dollars, was also built from Luersen. It's just that the ship is a little old, it was built seven or eight years ago.

Now it is also remarkable to be able to pull in a top customer who dominates the new generation of IT.

Outsiders will think like this: even Gu Mojie bought this company's yachts, instead of buying a shipyard to build it himself - it can be seen that this Luersen shipyard has dry goods.

This list can ensure that Lu Ersen's future position in the yachting industry will be unparalleled within 20 years.

Slightly betrayed a little bit of the information of the big dog, turned a blind eye, and it passed.

"Well, since Mr. Bloom is so righteous, I will pay the total price of 1,200,000,000,000 euros - but you must not be ambiguous about me! If you take something that will be made for eight or nine billion and charge me 1.2 billion, be careful that I am not finished with you! You get what you pay for, and I still have to protect it. ”

"Of course, don't you believe in the rigor of our Germans? Do you want this signboard of Lu Ersen? It's not a one-shot deal, and it's no longer a business. ”

Ryan patted his chest vigorously and guaranteed, and finally said to Gu Mojie: "Your list, since you want to overhaul the design, pay 20 million euros for the design fee first, and then we will show you a full set of design plans, drawings, and stage budgets." If you are satisfied, you will hit another 100 million 8 euros and start work. Then you accept the payment in stages, and promise not to give you ambiguity. ”

"Really? I heard that the 'Eclipse' was only quoted at 500 million euros at the beginning, and finally it was forced to build 800 million euros, all of which were added during the 'quantity audit' - I understand these routines. ”

Ryan smiled awkwardly, "Can that be the same!" Abu's 'Eclipse', when it first reported 500 million euros, it didn't need those radars, detection, electronic countermeasures, and defense systems! It was all added later, and of course it was overspent! If you are afraid of this, make it clear to the designer now: should the 'Aster' air defense missile system be added or not? You can't add the long-range version if you want to, so you can only give you the close-defense version. ”

"Gagaga, the money is spent anyway, why don't you add it to me!"

"Yes, that is, the 'Aster'-15 version, a short-range anti-aircraft missile within 30 kilometers, an eight-tube 'Silva-50' launch unit, together with supporting facilities, the cost of this is 46 million euros......" (to be continued.) )
