Chapter 514: Princelings
Ma Chenglin and Niu Xintang were invited to the room where Lin Qiangsheng lived, although it was a hotel, the room allocated to the boss was still very large.
The two sides sat down, and Ma Chenglin asked a little impatiently: "Mr. Lin, I also knew about your company before, but is it a bit hasty for you to want to introduce such a big project as F14 just after you were established?" This is a military peace involving hundreds of millions of dollars! ”
Niu Xintang said: "We all know that Grumman wants to sell 24 F14 fighters, which cannot be less, even if it is 25 million US dollars, a total of 600 million US dollars in foreign exchange!" ”
He turned his head to look at Yang Wanli and said, "Old Yang, your Eastern Aviation Industry Company wants to introduce advanced fighters from the United States when you find some people from China to build a shelf, such a decision is too child's play!" Moreover, we have already communicated with Grumman earlier that they refuse to sell the production line and transfer the technology, so what is the use of us asking for it! ”
Lin Qiangsheng and Yang Wanli glanced at each other, he moved his body and sat up a little higher, and said to the two: "It is indeed a fact that we do not transfer the production line and technology to us!" However, the introduction of the F14 project by Dongxing Group does have its own ideas, and we want to learn from American technology to understand the design ideas and production system of US military fighters, which is related to the future development route of Dongxing Aviation Industry Company!
Now China is also planning to transfer from the extensive model of the Soviet Union to the lean model of the United States, so the cooperation between China Eastern Aviation Industry Company and Grumman must be successful, and it will buy twenty or thirty F14 fighters from him no matter what. It doesn't matter if the Americans don't sell the production line and technology, we are the buyers, and if he doesn't sell it, we will pick thorns, as long as Grumman accepts this deal, how can Dongxing learn something from the Americans! ”
Lin Qiangsheng's words were sonorous and powerful, and his attitude was very resolute.
Ma Chenglin frowned. He felt that Lin Qiangsheng was a bit of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and he was confident when he said it sounded, and stubborn when he said it was ugly.
He looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said, "Who are you going to buy so many fighter jets and equipment for?" Did the General Armament Department allow it? The ministry is very short of funds at present, but it can't afford to buy such an expensive plane, and you can't bring in any technology for this project, so our military aircraft department can't afford this responsibility. Forget it! ”
Lin Qiangsheng's eyes have shown a little dissatisfaction, these central principals only see short-term benefits but do not start from a long-term perspective, improve technical equipment has to rely on hard work, these people want to eat a fat man at once!
He thought about it, and then looked at Ma Chenglin's temperament, although he was in his early forties, he was very well maintained, and he was a commanding persona, it turned out to be a red second generation!
He understood it all at once, he had met a princeling!
There are quite a few such people in the central ministries and commissions. This is the case in China, and in high positions, many princes are holding power. After the reform and opening up, many people saw the opportunity, and they handed over slips to do business. There are even some people who are not willing to do these little things and want to climb to high places, and many princes take advantage of the rights and opportunities in key positions to learn foreign technology in the name of learning foreign technology and introducing projects to gain fame and fortune.
I don't know which head this Ma Chenglin picked and what project he led. It's not a flying leopard, it's J-82.
Yang Wanli stiffened his neck and took over the conversation and said to the two: "Deputy Director Ma and Deputy Director Niu, we are here this time with an attitude of learning. China Eastern Aviation Industry Co., Ltd. is also a new type of enterprise, in the past two years there is a sense of the development of the Western military technology route, we want to cooperate with foreign countries in the early stage of the enterprise, learn their development model, steal the technology, this is also more efficient than our own blind blind eyes! ”
Niu Xintang saw that the attitude of both sides was unpleasant. Tempering the atmosphere, he said: "It's not that we don't want your company to talk to Grumman, but the other party obviously can't agree to it!" Moreover, the performance of the F14 fighter in the US military is not satisfactory, and its price and maintenance are extremely expensive! Its variable swept wing is a good technology, but our Air Force doesn't need it very much. Experts in the field of aviation in China also said that in the next five years, China can develop a third-generation fighter with a modern level, so it is very unnecessary to introduce F14! ”
Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and struck down his statement, and said: "It is impossible for domestic technology and technological reserves to create a third-generation fighter comparable to European and American aviation technology in the next five years. ”
Niu Xintang was stunned for a moment, smiled and said: "The little comrade is fast talking, yes, it is difficult to speak at the current level, but the country is also trying to find a way, aren't we coming!" ”
He continued: "The first flight of the domestic Jian-82 fighter was successful in June this year, and the comrades of Shen Fei believe that there is a lot of room for improvement in this aircraft, and they hope to greatly improve the technical and tactical level of the Jian-82 through cooperation with the Americans. The Americans will improve their radar system, avionics system, fire control system and other supporting equipment, and we are very likely to achieve this goal during the honeymoon period between China and the United States! Moreover, the J-82 is made by our country itself, and we know the root cause better, and it is more certain and smoother to carry out technological upgrading on this platform, and it will be easy to form combat effectiveness in the future! ”
"You also hope to learn the technology of the Americans through the improvement of the J-82, which I understand, but our introduction of the F14 and your improvement of the J-82 do not conflict, the country can learn technology through this cooperation, and the improvement of the country's aviation industry is also beneficial to our Dongxing!" Lin Qiangsheng spread his hands and said.
Ma Chenglin next to him looked at Lin Qiangsheng in front of him, but he was guessing the background of this young man in his heart. He also knew about this Dongxing company before, and he had heard of Lin Qiangsheng, and at first sight, it was as rumored that the leader of this large enterprise was very young and aggressive. He observed Lin Qiangsheng with some confusion, and secretly wondered what kind of background and strength he had behind him, and how he could achieve such an achievement at such a young age.
"Mr. Lin, I hope you can consider the interests of the country, now there are indeed difficulties in the country, since we can't get technology from F14, then we should concentrate the limited foreign exchange to do big things! The achievements in the development of China-US relations are hard-won and the result of the continuous efforts of several generations of leaders. Ma Chenglin adjusted his tone slightly, and comforted Lin Qiangsheng with the attitude of an elder facing a junior, he is also in his early 40s, and he used to see that Lin Qiangsheng was a little contemptuous and jealous at a young age, but this will still be serious and reasonable with Lin Qiangsheng and lay out the facts, there is no need to blow his beard and stare at the juniors, he still disdains to do so.
