Chapter 530: Fishing for Benefits

Guo Zhuocheng continued: "In addition, I asked my superiors to solve several sets of cutting-edge equipment for the 26 factory, in addition to high-end gear shaping machines, shaving machines, and gear grinding machines, the main thing is to import a few CNC machine tools, otherwise, China's tanks will not be able to break through in a short period of time, and our Type 69 tanks can cope with three or four years, but what about after three or four years? ”

Yu Gangqiu immediately heard something, and hurriedly asked, "Only three or four years?" Do you mean that in three or four years we have a thousand, no, there should be more than three thousand tanks to digest? Where is there such a large consumer market? Although our country is negotiating with the United States to support the Afghan rebels, the US side is only ready to buy 600 tanks from our country and send them to the Afghan rebels. There are still 2,000 cars under it, how to digest this? ”

Guo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "The United States is willing to pay for tanks for the Afghan rebels?" And up to six hundred? ”

Guo Shucheng remembered that there was no such good thing in his previous life, as if China had only exported a dozen vehicles, and I don't know if it was because he was afraid of Soviet retaliation or because he wanted to protect his country from being invaded, he didn't give much tank support to the Afghan resistance group anyway, it just meant it.

Yu Gangqiu listened to Guo Zhuocheng's words, and a strange idea popped up in his heart, but he still didn't say this idea, but asked calmly: "Yes." Didn't you anticipate that? You're not going to ask me to increase my order for another 600 units, are you? ”

Guo Zhuocheng didn't hear the temptation in Yu Gangqiu's words for a while, but followed the other party's words and said: "Great! Vice Premier Yu, who knows me, is also. We should immediately increase the volume by six hundred, no, another thousand! I guess the Yankees finally agreed to buy the price that would allow us to produce three of the same tanks, right? ”

After Yu Gangqiu took out what he knew from Guo Zhuocheng's mouth, he was not hateful in his heart, he was thinking about which country would buy China's arms in the future, and he was speculating whether there would be another war on the Korean Peninsula.

After a while. He replied to Guo Shucheng's question: "The Yankees are not stupid. How is it possible to casually offer a high price? Now they are only willing to promise us a price of 400,000 for one car. We want to try to talk about 600,000, but it is very difficult, after all, we in China also have to show a little sincerity. You can't really make the money of war. If we are too strong in this regard, too much in the eyes of money, then we will suffer in terms of introducing technology and causing equipment. They won't be positive. ”

Guo Shucheng said seriously: "Yes, it is still the leader who is far-sighted. But in less than a second, he laughed out loud and said, "You guys, you are more greedy than me, a tank that leaves the factory is only 200,000 yuan, and people offer 400,000 US dollars, and you are still not satisfied?" If you want me to say ♀ that enough is enough, c, let them make amazing profits, they will export themselves, and then we in China can only fight chickens and eggs. ”

Yu Gangqiu smiled embarrassedly. said: "I'm not afraid of this. Americans are in the dark. They could not afford to send their tanks to the Afghan resistance. Their so-called high-tech tanks were captured by the Soviets, and the leaks of their technology ‖ angered the Soviets, who would fight them elsewhere.

The Americans' tanks are all millions of dollars each, at least seven or eight hundred thousand, and they are all very expensive, which may not be suitable for the terrain of Afghanistan. Besides, we have to risk offending the Soviet Union, but we also have to risk sending tanks to the Afghan guerrillas, where we have to train those guerrillas how to use them. ”

In previous lives, most of the weapons used by Afghan rebel groups - basically guerrillas - were made in China and purchased from China at the expense of the United States. And the United States itself exported the most and most famous to the resistance groups are shoulder-fired missiles, which are specially designed to deal with Soviet helicopter gunships.

Because this infrared homing missile is simple and easy to use, it can give Soviet planes a great deterrent, so that they cannot bomb and strafe at low altitudes, and greatly improve the survivability of the guerrillas. Moreover, China either cannot produce such improvised missiles, or the quality is not good, forcing the United States to come up with its own products.

China played a role in the war in Afghanistan, but it was completely different from the Soviet Union providing weapons and China contributing money and personnel during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, China was forced to send troops because the Western troops led by the United States were stationed in northern Korea, thus threatening China's largest industrial base, the three northeastern provinces. At that time, the Soviet Union was under very little pressure, and although it did not want the United States to occupy the entire Korean Peninsula, it was not so urgent. China had to unite on its own**.

Now it is different, the United States is very much occupied by the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, and even more so, after the Soviet Union occupied Afghanistan, it surrounded the world's oil depots from three directions -- the Middle East, which reduced one of the largest oil import channels for Western countries.

Although they were very anxious, the wounds of the Korean War had just passed, the wounds of the Vietnam War had not yet healed, and they did not have the ability to dominate the ball like in their previous lives, and they really did not dare to do it face to face with the aggressive Soviet Union.

Geographically and politically, China should be more afraid of the Soviet Union than the United States, after all, the United States and the Soviet Union are still separated by the Pacific Ocean, and there is not much threat to the United States itself. Once the Soviet Union completely occupies Afghanistan, plus the help of Vietnam, then China's north, west, and south will all face the Soviet Union's muzzle, leaving only the poor east without the Soviet Union, but the east is not easy, because Taiwan and the mainland will not be able to pee at all.

In the previous life, China was really anxious, protesting and exercising, and it also mobilized troops on a large scale, actively contacted Western countries, and took the initiative to seek to improve relations, and finally achieved the goal of restraining the expansion of the Soviet Union, so that the Soviet Union could not get out of the quagmire of Afghanistan, and finally the Soviet Union even fell apart, and the giant collapsed with a bang.

It can be said that on the issue of the war in Afghanistan, China has fully achieved its strategic goals, and has also taken advantage of this opportunity to greatly improve its relations with Western countries and gain a lot of benefits, especially high-tech technologies and ideas.

But in Guo Zhuocheng's case, the benefits obtained in his previous life were far from enough, and China could still use this form to make a little more money.

His efforts have indeed worked, and most of China's efforts in this life have been bluffing, being more patient with Western countries, and at the same time making demands and asking for benefits from Western countries, plus his own country has come up with some technology for exchanges, and the benefits from the war in Afghanistan have greatly increased in this life.

The export order ♀ for at least 600 tanks must have been increased because the Soviet offensive was stronger than the offensive in the previous life, and the United States saw that the Afghan resistance group could no longer sustain it, so it had to increase the allocation of heavy weapons to prolong the life of the guerrillas, so that China picked up a small bargain.

If the United States had known that it did not have this expenditure in its previous life, I wonder if they would have rolled their eyes in anger.

Six hundred tanks can have a lot of income, plus the corresponding increase in other artillery, guns, munitions and so on, which definitely makes the middle ** worker happy. It's a pity that they don't know the situation in their previous lives, otherwise they would be happier.

Guo Zhuocheng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, of course it should, that is, it will only increase by one hundred dollars per tank, and it is also a familiar worker's salary for a month." ......, Vice Premier Yu, other arms should also be produced by enterprises, right? ”

Yu Gangqiu asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" Do you think you can do it in the world? ”

Guo Zhuocheng laughed a few times, said hello a few times and hung up the phone - turned his head to Xu Junlong and Secretary Bao, and the two stared at him stunned, their eyes full of shock: Who is this kid? How do you get so close to national leaders? Why is it so casual to speak? How could the dignified deputy prime minister obey him? Even the provincial governor and the secretary of the provincial party committee will not have this ability, right?

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, they would never have believed that this scene was real.

Guo Shucheng asked, "What's wrong with you?" Suddenly you don't know me? ”

Xu Junlong came back to his senses and said, "I...... Do we dare to say we know you? You ......, if it weren't for the fact that we knew that the phone was a red confidential number, I really couldn't believe that you were talking to the leading comrades of the Central Committee. Speaking of this, he turned his head to Secretary Bao and said, "Bao Zhihong, as long as you know this, you must keep it secret!" ”

Secretary Bao - Bao Zhihong - hurriedly stood upright, and said loudly like a soldier: "Yes! In his heart, he was as happy ♀ as honey, but it was not only that Factory 26 was likely to get an order of 8 million, but more importantly, he knew Guo Zhuocheng.

After making friends with him, are you afraid that you won't have a chance to climb up in the future? Not to mention that Xu Junlong reminded him to keep it secret, even if he didn't remind him, he would definitely keep it secret, this is a resource, the fewer people who know this resource, the higher the value, and the greater the possibility of him rising in the future. He has been in the officialdom for a long time, so he naturally knows this truth.

His mind is like this, and Xu Junlong's mind is like this, and everyone can't help but be happy.

Guo Zhuocheng said to Bao Zhihong: "Secretary Bao, can we talk about the cooperation of walk-behind tractors now?" ”

Bao Zhihong hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes! You...... You say, if you want our 26 factories to cooperate, we will cooperate. Guarantee to come exactly according to your requirements, there will never be a little problem, if there is a problem, you are the only one. Because he was so eager and shocked that he almost even used the honorific "you."

In fact, if it weren't for Xu Junlong here, if it weren't for Guo Shucheng's scruples about him, he would really be willing to use this honorific to talk to Guo Shucheng.
