"I can report your request to the Supreme Soviet, but I don't think it's a big problem. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Belyakov pondered for a moment and gave Chen Geng a vague but relatively positive answer.

But at the same time as saying this, Belyakov has already made up his mind in his heart, he must promote the conclusion of this deal, go to the technology licensing fee, compared to the technology licensing fee, how can it be cool to sell an airplane?

Selling planes, this is simply a bonus, if you can sell a batch of planes, the USSR will make a lot of money!

"It's really happy!" With a thumbs up, Chen Geng praised: "I still have a few more requirements." ”

At this moment, looking at Belyakov, who was no different from the God of Wealth, he immediately said, "What else do you want, you say." ”

"The planes will be delivered one after another within 3 years, and in terms of price, the Soviet side must give us certain concessions."

"Yes."

"The engines of this batch of Tu-154M passenger planes do not use the D-30ku of the Soloviev Design Bureau, and must all be replaced with the NK-8-2U or NK-8-4 of the Kuznetsov Design Bureau, in addition to three additional spare engines, it must be noted that the engines carried on these 10 Tu-154M are part of the 100 engines we have purchased."

"That's right......" Belyakov frowned.

It is not a problem for these 10 Tu-154M passenger planes to be delivered in three years, but compared with the delivery of these 10 planes in batches in three years, he is worried that Runhua Industrial will require these 10 planes to be delivered within one year, and it will be troublesome to ask for one delivery.

Aircraft manufacturing is different from automobile manufacturing, for aircraft manufacturing, although their production metronome has a certain degree of flexibility, but the annual output is not very much, the Tupolev Design Bureau allocates more than 50 aircraft to the Tu-154M production capacity every year, if the sales of 10 aircraft suddenly increase in a year, this production capacity is difficult to mention, for the Tupolev Design Bureau on the contrary, the cost has increased, and it is a good thing to spread these 10 aircraft evenly over the next three years, but the Tu-154M carries the D― The 30ku engine was replaced with NK-8-2U or NK-8-4, and what was even more excessive was that Chen Geng actually asked this batch of engines to be regarded as part of the 40+60......

A Tu-154M needs to be equipped with 3 engines, 10 aircraft is 30 engines, Runhua Industrial purchased an additional 3 engines for backup, considering that Runhua Industrial purchased a total of 40 NK-8 engines from the Soviet Union, and the remaining 60 were assembled in China in the form of parts, which means that the Soviet Union will deliver 7 NK-8 engines to Runhua Industrial -- this kid is really a good calculation!

"As for the price of the aircraft, I can make the decision to lower it to $8.5 million for you," Belyakov muttered for a moment, "but I can't accept the use of engines to compensate for some of the engines you purchased......

Without waiting for Belyakov to finish speaking, Chen Geng interrupted him with a smile: "Mr. Belyakov, you can understand it this way, we are purchasing 10 Tu-154m without engines. ”

Figure without engine - 154m? This statement made Beryakov a little crying and laughing: who buys an airplane and does not buy an engine?

Belyakov was tempted to say that we would not accept this form of cooperation, but before he could speak, Chen Geng said: "I think this is a way of cooperation that is beneficial to both of us, but if you don't accept this way, then we will discuss the issue of technology transfer fees." ”

If it were not for the order for 10 Tu-154M, the technical licensing cost of 30 million US dollars would have been enough to impress Belyakov, but in the face of such a huge order as 10 Tu-154M...... Even if it's 10 planes without engines - 154m...... Belyakov still hesitated, and in the face of Chen Geng's posture of "you don't agree with this way, let's talk about the authorization money",

After pondering for a while, Belyakov decided to give in: "Okay, we can accept this way, but the number of aircraft must be adjusted, 12 Tu-154m, plus 4 spare engines, will be delivered in the next 4 years." ”

"12 planes - 154m ......" After pondering for a long time, Chen Geng finally gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, 12 planes are 12 planes, but in terms of price? ”

Belyakov thought for a moment and said tentatively: "The unit price of the Tu-154M is 8.7 million US dollars, but your purchase quantity is relatively large, and the price I gave you including the NK-8-2U engine is 8.5 million US dollars, how about it?" ”

"It's too high," Chen Geng shook his head: "$7.7 million......"

After some bargaining, the two sides finally reached an agreement at a unit price of 8.15 million US dollars, and the two sides agreed that the delivery time of the first batch of three Tu-154M planes would not exceed June next year at the latest, and then three planes would be delivered every year.

As for the payment method, the two parties have also made an agreement: first of all, 10% of the total price of a single batch must be paid in advance, and the remaining 90% must be paid when the aircraft is delivered, of which 20% will be paid in US dollars, and the remaining 70% will be paid in finished clothing, food, textiles, radios, televisions and other light industrial products and electronic products.

After finalizing the details of this cooperation, Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief: he finally got one.

Why do you want to buy a 154M airliner? Because the airline that Runhua Industrial has invested in and is not even having a name yet, there is no airplane, and the Tu-154M is a very good and inexpensive civil aircraft.

Although this aircraft has a relatively bad reputation in the world, there have always been rumors that the Tu-154M has a high failure rate and is prone to failure, but a big reason for this is the deliberate smearing of the three competitors of Boeing, Airbus, and McDonnell Douglas, and the accident rate of the Tu-154M is quite a lot, but the vast majority of accidents are caused by the inadequate maintenance of the aircraft, and the proportion of aviation accidents that occur because of the problems of the aircraft itself is not even as much as that of the Boeing 737. This is actually a very safe aircraft, otherwise it would not have been able to serve in China until after 2000.

Best of all, it's cheap!

Compared with the Boeing 737 or Airbus A320 that often have the same passenger class, but the price is more than 20 million US dollars per aircraft, the price of Tu-154M is much cheaper, and a Boeing 737 can almost buy three Tu-154M, and the Soviet Union also accepts barter trade.

………………………………

In the following days, Runhua Industry and the Soviet Union jointly improved the NK-8 engine with the Kuznetsov Design Bureau, further enhancing the technical level of the NK-8 series engine in many aspects, such as fuel economy, reliability, noise level, and maximum thrust.

According to this agreement, Runhua Industry will provide funds and the Kuznetsov Design Bureau will provide technical support to upgrade the NK-8 series engines, and the improved technology will be shared and used by both parties.

For the Soviet Union, which had already begun mass production of large-bypass ratio and high-thrust turbofan engines, Runhua Industrial's improvement of the NK-8 turbofan engine with a small and medium-bypass ratio was tantamount to using Runhua Industrial's money to help the Soviet Union increase its technological reserves, and the developed technologies could be applied to the subsequent improvements of the D-18T, D-436.ps-90A and other engines, which would be beneficial to the Soviet Union without harm.

A week later, after Runhua Industry and Kuznetsov Design Bureau signed their names on the memorandum of cooperation between the two sides to jointly develop the NK-56 and NK-64 engines for the international market, Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief: It's finally done!

"Chen, congratulations." Signing his name on the memo, Belyakov shook Chen Geng's hand vigorously and was very happy.

"Congratulations." Chen Geng said with a smile: "For both of us, this cooperation is a win-win situation for mutual benefit, isn't it?" ”

"Win-win?" Belyakov was stunned for a moment, and then nodded happily: "That's right!" It's a win-win! Congratulations! ”

After a slight pause, Belyakov asked Chen Geng casually: "Chen, I heard that you are going to cooperate with the Germans to develop a new aircraft?" ”

How did the Soviets know about the MPC-75? Also, what was Belyakov going to do when he suddenly mentioned this at this time? Chen Geng frowned slightly, but he didn't show this emotion, but generously admitted the matter: "Well, there is such a thing, after I am busy with this matter, I will go to Germany for a trip." ”

"If your country plans to develop its own aviation manufacturing industry, the Soviet Union is willing to provide you with some help," Belyakov looked at Chen Geng with a meaningful expression: "Whether it is the most advanced Tu-154M passenger aircraft that we are currently producing, or the Tu-204 aircraft that we are developing and is now in the stage of airworthiness certification, which represents the most advanced aviation manufacturing technology of the Soviet Union, we are willing to come up with it and cooperate with our Chinese brothers." ”

Chen Geng was shocked by the information revealed in Belyakov's words: The Tu-154M, the main trunk aircraft of the Soviet Union now, is just that, but Lao Maozi is even willing to take out such a "ruthless product" as the Tu-204? (To be continued.) )
