Chapter 691: Fraud
It is true that it is not only the shareholders of MBB who are anxious to get angry, but the Federal Minister of Economy and Energy of the Federal Republic of Germany, Hermann Altmaier, is even more anxious, the MPC-75 project has come to the present with his support, and if this project can be successful, it will be equivalent to adding a heavy stroke to his political resume, not only can he be re-elected, but maybe he can seek the position of the next vice chancellor, and he will serve one or two terms in the position of vice chancellor, and the position of chancellor will not be enough, but if the project failsAlthough it will not have a serious impact on his political life, it is absolutely impossible to expect this project to be his own help.

Chen Geng also understands this, so when he received Hermann Altmaier's invitation, compared to the other members of the delegation, Chen Geng's bland expression was simply outrageous!
Director Ma even felt that Chen Geng's brain was broken? After looking Chen Geng up and down, and after making sure that Chen Geng's mind was normal, he reminded him in disbelief: "Comrade Chen Geng, that is the Minister of Economy and Energy of the Federal Republic of Germany, and one of the cabinet members of the Federal Republic of Germany......
"I know," Chen Geng nodded, still calm: "But I don't have to be happy because of the other party's invitation, and I forgot everything, right?" ”
...... "What you said is so reasonable, Director Ma feels that he is speechless!"
But he always felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but remind Chen Geng again: "But that's one of the cabinet members of the Federal Republic of Germany." ”
"I know," Chen Geng nodded again: "Don't worry, I will definitely not go, and I will definitely not let people not come to the stage." ”
"I'm relieved," Director Ma told his son, "Dealing with government leaders is different from you in the army, talk less, and a senior government official from a developed country like Hermann has a great impact on national relations, maybe his words can affect the investment of many German companies in our China, you must pay attention when you speak." ”
To be honest, after seeing Chen Geng's "heroic" negotiation method, he was really worried that Chen Geng would make some inappropriate moves when negotiating with Herman - this is also another form of being bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope.
It's just that Chen Gengdu has already said this, and Director Ma is naturally not good at saying anything, so he can only sigh secretly in his heart: I hope this kid can really carry the weight.
…………………………………………
Hermann Altmaier really took great pains to do the MPC-75 project, and he invited Chen Geng to a private family banquet - Chen Geng did not have such a big face - but the level was not low, it was a banquet held by the Ministry of Economy and Energy similar to a symposium of representatives of German business circles, but the participants covered a wide range of entrepreneurs, not only representatives of local entrepreneurs, but also representatives of foreign companies investing in the Federal Republic of Germany. Chen Geng saw his old acquaintances at the meeting: several representatives of MBB, such as Mr. Ursula Hawke, President of MBB, and Mr. Wolfgang Meidon, President of the Transport Aircraft Division, Vice President.
Seeing Chen Geng, Ursula Hawke and Wolfgang Meidong were very surprised, and beckoned to Chen Geng and Lin Shuyao: "Chen, come here." ”
"Mr. Hawke, Mr. Maidon, two are good." Chen Geng's face could not see the slightest rebelliousness and tension before, and he shook hands with Ursula Hawke and Wolfgang Meidong with a smile and greeted him politely.
The appearance of a yellow person in the venue of this time made a group of foreigners feel very strange, but seeing that this young man seemed to be a guest of MBB, everyone was relieved: a yellow person, forget it, it's not worth wasting their time and energy.
After Chen Geng sat down, Ursula Hawke spoke: "Chen, I'm sorry for what happened before......
Without waiting for Ursula Hawke to finish speaking, Chen Geng shrugged: "No, you don't have to apologize, it's all business, I can understand, just like you said, business is business, right?" Well, we're still friends no matter what time it is. ”
The doctor said that we would only be "friends" from now on.
"No, I still have to apologize," Ursula Hawke shook his head with a serious face: "Chen, after you left, we discussed again for a long time, and we thought it would be better to formulate a new cooperation agreement based on the memorandum." ”
"Oh?" Chen Geng turned his head in surprise and glanced at Wolfgang Meidong: Really?
"That's right," Wolfgang Meidong, who understood the inquiry in Chen Geng's eyes, nodded: "Chen, we do think so. ”
"Why?" Chen Geng frowned, a little puzzled, seeing that Wolfgang Meidong was about to speak, Chen Geng interrupted him: "Can you tell me the truth?" ”
"Uh...... Okay," Wolfgang Medin nodded with a wry smile: "We just carefully analyzed the options that MBB was able to make, and found that we didn't have many options. ”
So that's it!
Chen Geng smiled: "If that's the case...... Well, I gotta say, you guys made a very wise decision. ”
"Really? Hehe......" Wolfgang Meidong immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "We think so too, so can we ......?"
"I'm sorry."
"Huh? Why? Looking at Chen Geng with an apologetic face, Wolfgang Meidong and Ursula Hawke were puzzled: What's going on? What happened?
After they thought that as long as they apologized, the Chinese should be very excited to express their willingness to sign a new contract with MBB, but the current situation is completely beyond the expectations of the two, what happened?
"The Soviet side informed us that if we imported large aircraft manufacturing technology from the Soviet Union, they could consider selling us the Il-76 large transport aircraft." Chen Geng spread out his hands and said with a regretful face.
"This ...... This ......"
I didn't expect that Wolfgang Meidong and Ursula Hawke would come out in the middle of the way, and they were directly stupid on the spot: the Soviets were willing to sell their most advanced large transport aircraft, the Il-76, to the Chinese?
Oh, God!
Are the Soviets crazy?
How can they sell such advanced and important military equipment to the Chinese?
The IL-76 is a heavy transport aircraft with a carrying capacity equivalent to that of the US C-141, and for any country, this kind of transport aircraft capable of transporting more than 40 tons of materials or more than 200 soldiers at one time is of great military and economic significance, no matter what they thought before, they did not expect that the Soviets would be willing to sell the strategic equipment of the IL-76 to the Chinese. 76, the Chinese will definitely choose to cooperate with the Soviets!
At this moment, Ursula Hawke really regretted not being at the beginning: he knew that this was the case, and he should have signed a contract with the Chinese a long time ago!
Wolfgang Meidong was extremely unwilling, gritting his teeth with a blue face but asking Chen Geng in a very low voice: "Chen, when did this happen?" ”
"It was yesterday."
"What the hell!" Wolfgang Maidon suddenly hugged his head, and his dejected look was no different from watching a boiled duck run away from his eyes.
"But it's good news for me,"
Of course, Chen Geng would not tell Wolfgang Meidong that this was not the case at all, and that it was right that he had made a request to the Soviet side to purchase the Il-76 and An-22, but there was no news from the Belyakov side, and it was estimated that there was little hope. However, this did not prevent him from using this to scare the two people in front of him, he smacked his lips and said with a regretful face: "In addition, we have also put forward a request to the Soviet side to lease 2 to 4 An-22 transport planes for civil aviation cargo transportation. ”
As far as Europe is concerned, the An-22, a strategic-class transport aircraft in the true sense, is simply their nightmare, and the An-22's amazing performance in the "Prague Spring" simply shocked the whole world.
Nima!
That's a strategic transport aircraft in the truest sense of the word!
Although Chen Geng said that it was leased, and it was used for civil aviation freight, whoever believed in this kind of thing was a fool, and Wolfgang almost subconsciously said: "The Soviet Union agreed?" ”
Chen Geng said with a regretful face: "No." ”
Although they knew that it was impossible for the Chinese to use An-22 on their own heads if they got it, the murderous reputation of An-22 was so strong that after hearing Chen Geng's words, the two almost breathed a sigh of relief!
But Chen Geng's next sentence made them raise their hearts to their throats again: "But they didn't refuse." ”
"Huh?" Wolfgang Meidong and Ursula Hawke kept rubbing their chests, their hearts beating so hard: Can you not speak so loudly?
"So," Chen Geng said with great regret, "the MPC-75 is a good aircraft, but gentlemen, sometimes we have to settle other accounts, don't we?" ”
“……”
Wolfgang Meidong and Ursula Hawke looked at each other, not knowing how to continue the conversation that followed, and both of them had a deep despair in their eyes: Even if there is no strategic transport plane like the An-22, and few people can resist the temptation of a large transport plane like the Il-76, damn it, after seeing hope again, is the MPC-75 just a flash in the pan after all?
Regret!
Chagrin!
Despair!
Several different emotions are constantly intertwined in the hearts of the two, knowing today earlier, regretting the beginning? (To be continued.) )
