Chapter 162: Negotiations in Moscow
Russia, Moscow, Saturn Motive Manufacturing Company, Guest House.
It has been more than a month since the delegation of the Xifei Company of Country H to Russia came to this company located on the outskirts of Moscow. Tang Jihong, head of the H country negotiating delegation, and Mashkov, Russia's negotiator, have held 13 rounds of confrontational talks, but there has been no progress.
The Russian representatives did not make the slightest concession, and the unit price of the D-3OKP-2 motive was not less than 450,000 yuan per unit.
Tang Jihong was anxious, when he bought 32 D-3OKP-2 motives from Russia last year, the price of a single unit was less than 350,000 yuan, but this year the lion opened his mouth and suddenly rose to 450,000 such an exaggerated level! You must know that the unit price of a strategic transport aircraft is about 5ooo million meters, and a Y-2O needs to be equipped with 4 D-3OKP2 type motives.
Tang Jihong frowned and said: "Mr. Mashkov, the unit price of your own PS-9OA type motive is about 320,000 yuan, this kind of motive is much easier to use than D-3O, your offer is too outrageous, we can hardly accept it." ”
"Friends of country H, we are us, and you are yours. Last year was last year, and this year is this year. You can't buy cheap ones here, you can buy them somewhere else, and our company is not the only one that makes the motive..."Mashkov did not forget to laugh and said: "My old friend, I heard that your great luck is about to be put into production, congratulations, but I don't know your motives, when will it be put into production?" ”
"You!" Tang Jihong, who usually has a gentle face, is annoyed by this rosacea, brown-eyed, and meaty old man today, but he is not easy to do, and his heart is bitter.
The mass production of domestic Dayun is about to be rolled off the production line, and turbofan motors with large bypass ratios are urgently needed to be installed on these transport aircraft. But the plane was made. The motivation is one step behind, and the production line is delayed. There are several trial-type domestic turbofan-2O motors, although the thrust is enough and the fuel consumption is small, but it is not mature enough, prone to failure, and cannot be mass-produced off the assembly line at all, at least to give the official service date of the domestic Universiade. Drag on for two years.
In the past few years, Tang Jihong has been to Moscow more than a dozen times, and has successfully negotiated the purchase of the D-3OKP-2 motive many times. Country H purchased a total of 17O D-3OKP-2 engines in three batches: the first batch of 12O units, each with a unit price of 280,000 meters, were all equipped with the new domestic H-6K bomber; The second batch of 18 units, each quoted at 32o million meters. Replaced with 4 domestic Air Police-2OOO large early warning aircraft; The third batch of 32 units, each with 3.45 million meters, was used in the development and test flight of the domestic large transport aircraft Yun-2O.
It can be said that every strategically important large aircraft at the H National Exhibition is inseparable from the help of the D-3OKP-2 type of motive. However, this motive is not produced by the people of H country themselves, in this world. There are only two countries that can afford to produce such an motive: one is Russia and the other is Ukraine.
However, since 14 years Ukraine exploded democracy. After the revolution, the country was completely divided into two parts: pro-Russian in the east and pro-European in the west. Western countries put people in this country. Main poison. medicine, and eventually this originally had a lot of potential for the country. Turned into a failed state with nothing. And Eastern European dramas. After the change, the strong industrial foundation left by the Soviet Union to the country was also exhausted in the movement of the past few years.
A few years ago, when Ukraine was not in chaos, when negotiating with the Russians, country H would send two negotiation delegations in advance, one to Moscow. One went to Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, to discuss the motive for the purchase of transport aircraft.
In the past, as soon as the Russian representative proposed to raise the price, Tang Jihong would immediately say in an understated tone: "Our comrades are working in negotiations in another place. Considerable progress has been made, and people have agreed to sell us for this motive at the price of xxx thousand, and if you don't drop this price again, we can only find someone else to cooperate. ”
As an old friend of Tang Jihong, Mashkov has suffered a lot of losses from this seemingly honest and kind friend in front of him, but fortunately, his revenge will come soon.
Mashkov joked: "My old friend, do you need me to help you ask the offer from your friend in the west?" The conditions they give seem to be much better than ours, if their factories and workers are still around, of course. ”
"Mashkov, please report to your superiors that the order we got this time needs at least 2oo units of D-3OKP-2 motive, and this order is enough for your workers to produce on the production line for a year! But your offer is so high that we can't afford it! Please less, for the sake of our country's friendship with individuals. ”
"No, no, no" Mashkov waved his index finger, "Mr. Tang, although I admire you as an old friend, there is no friendship between countries, sorry, what my superiors gave me me: less than 450,000 meters, don't sell!" ”
Mashkov joked again: "Old friend, your country H is so rich, it should not be so bad, please reflect it to your superiors, believe me, they will agree to this price." ”
"Then we don't have to talk, adjourn."
……
Back at the residence, Tang Jihong kept smoking a cigarette, it has been more than a month, winter is coming, the weather is getting colder and colder, the red leaves on the maple tree downstairs are withering and falling, his mood is also like falling maple leaves, I don't know where to go.
13 negotiations have been fruitless, and he no longer has hope for this negotiation, because no matter whether it is 3O, 5O, or 2oo, the price given by the Russian representative has never made any concessions, and it is difficult to change Lao Maozi's negotiation attitude of admitting death. But people have arrogant capital, and people have that kind of industrial strength. Unless you can create the same motivation, then he will think of working with you.
When will the state stop us from doing this kind of work with a smile on our faces?
"Old Tang, it's been more than a month since we came to Moscow, shouldn't we go back?" The person who said this was Su Yang, a young translator in the group, a very sunny and handsome young man, who had been in Moscow for more than a month, probably thinking about his little girlfriend, right?
"Su Yang, do you miss your little girlfriend Xinxin? When are you going to get married? Tang Jihong and Su Yang joked and chatted about a more relaxed topic.
Su Yang smiled shyly, squirming like a big boy, but when he thought of his sweetheart who was thousands of miles away, he said happily: "It's probably the end of this year, and the parents on both sides are more anxious." ”
"I have long seen that you kid, you have to make a short phone call every day, Xinxin, Xinxin all day long, and you are not afraid that your salary will not be enough to reimburse your phone bills."
Su Yang scratched his head awkwardly, and smiled: "Old Tang, I see that those old hairy people don't eat hard and soft, it is estimated that there is no hope for negotiation, are we ......?"
Tang Jihong sighed: "Try again, I'll call the prime minister and ask him to call President Putin, to see if there is any last hope..." ”
"Oh, I see."
Looking at the back of Su Yang bowing his head and leaving, Tang Jihong sighed in his heart: Today's young people, except for their own small happiness, do not have the strong dedication and sorrow of the older generation......
When Tang Jihong asked if he needed to continue the negotiations, the prime minister told him: No need to continue, the country has found an alternative way, and all the members of your negotiation team should return to China.
"Did we buy motivation from other countries?" Tang Jihong said in surprise, the West has not lifted the ban on our motive exports, right?
The voice on the phone didn't say it explicitly, just told him that the negotiations were terminated, and there was no need to ask anything else.
……
National Defense Six Shields, at a regular meeting on Monday, General Xu Guoyuan announced a good news that made everyone excited: the country intends to hand over the task of transforming the large aircraft motive to the National Defense Six Shields, and the first batch of motives will be delivered to the base for modification in 3 days, with no less than 5o units predicted.
"The first batch of strategic transport aircraft produced by Xifei Company is about to roll off the assembly line! But he has been waiting for the whereabouts of the motive. According to the negotiators who went to Moscow, the old Maozi lion opened his mouth to sell us the D-3OKP-2 motive, and one unit rose to 450,000 meters of gold! Good guy, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get fat in one bite! General Xu patted the table, indicating that he was frightened.
"450 thousand? It's enough to buy two units before! ”
"If you don't do this, then Lao Maozi will not be the original Lao Maozi, and the free aircraft carriers sold to India dare to raise the price to 2.9 billion US dollars, and it seems very reasonable to raise the price for the motive we need."
"Fortunately, we have Comrade Stranger here, and he can help us solve a lot of problems as long as he works material purification. With the Stranger, we will soon be able to make the domestic fortune and install our own big heart! ”
"Yes, for 4o years, the country has not stopped the project of strategic transport aircraft, but every time it has been launched with key motives, and now, no one can stop our Kunpeng from spreading its wings and flying into the sky."
Xu Guoyuan said to He Xi: "Secretary He, you go and say hello to Comrade Stranger, he may have another arduous task in the past few days, do his ideological work well." Let him complete the tasks assigned by the state in a short time and with high quality, if he has any difficulties, we will do our best to help him solve them, whether it is life or material, in a word: let him be independent and willing to contribute his contribution to the country! ”
Secretary He nodded and said, "Yes, Comrade Guoyuan." ”
However, not long after the meeting, Secretary He Xi talked to Comrade Stranger, but brought bad news to everyone who was full of expectations: Comrade Stranger didn't work for a day today, not only did he not do it, but he also said that he wouldn't do anything at all!
