Chapter 1585 The Thief's Heart Doesn't Die (Three Changes, One Change)
"We're going to the Moscow Air Show this year?" Lin Hongfei's words surprised the faces of the members of the group's party group.
"Yes, we want to participate," Lin Hongfei nodded affirmatively, "not only to participate, but also to bring our latest products to participate." ”
"You mean...... North County 100? ”
Li Boyu looked at Lin Hongfei in disbelief, and the other members of the party group looked at each other: This chairman is too bold, right? To put the upgraded version of the TU-134B on display in front of their inventors and creators? They don't know whether to say that Lin Hongfei is bold, or what is good about him?
"What? What's the problem? Lin Hongfei asked rhetorically.
"This ......"
His Excellency the Chairman of the Board of Directors was so bold that everyone couldn't help but look at each other: this ...... What's the problem? What's the problem, you say?
"You guys......" Lin Hongfei shook his head, looking at everyone's eyes as if there was a little ...... Sympathize? "Do you think that the first generation of the C-130 transport aircraft is the same aircraft as the latest generation of the C-130?"
"Of course not, the latest generation of C-130 is much more powerful than the first generation of C-130...... Ding Yuhai hurriedly said, as the former administrative commander of AVIC in charge of the development of a number of projects, he is the most proficient in technology among the people present, naturally knows very well how big the overall performance gap between the latest generation of C-130 and the first generation C-130 is: although the shape looks like the same shape, but in fact it is completely different, if you have to give an example, The difference is as big as the difference between a production prototype and a car that has been modified for WRC.
"Yes, the performance of the first-generation C-130 is much worse than the current latest-generation C-130," Lin Hongfei nodded with a smile. "So how big is the gap between the North County 100 and the TU-134B?"
Well? For Lin Hongfei's rhetorical question, everyone was stunned: think about it carefully, it seems that the gap in the degree of advancement between the Beijun 100 and the TU-134B is no less than the gap between the latest generation of C-130 and the first generation of C-130.
"Very good, it seems that everyone understands," Lin Hongfei nodded, "There is nothing to be ashamed of, although the technology of our aircraft is derived from the TU-134B, we not only purchased all the technical materials and patents of the TU-134B, but also made this aircraft reach the technical height and advanced level that the TU-134 series has never had...... Since the apprentice is stronger than the master. How can you not let the master test the quality and weight of this apprentice? I can't wait to hear what our master has to say about us. ”
Hearing Lin Hongfei's words, everyone was speechless for a moment: This Mr. Lin ...... The Russians, who have not yet recovered from the throes of the collapse of the USSR, are now sensitive, so don't irritate them, right?
But obviously, Lin Hongfei didn't think so in his heart.
————————————————————————
Lin Hongfei discovered that there are really no secrets in this world that can be hidden.
The reason is simple. Just now, Pu. Hui Canada's Chief Executive Officer, Michael. Pearson called Lin Hongfei. Congratulations to the Y-12IV light multi-purpose transport aircraft produced by the Bingcheng Aircraft Factory under AVIC 2 Group, which will become the first aircraft produced in the Republic of China to obtain FAA and CAAC airworthiness certificates in one month. At the same time, I would like to talk to him about the procurement of aero engines.
“PT6A?” Lin Hongfei raised his eyebrows.
"Of course, Mr. Lin," said Michael. Pearson smiled softly, "You know, our PT6A is the best turboprop engine in this class, I remember you told me before." The company hopes to produce the aircraft in the U.S. or Canada. ”
"Yes, I hope, but I still need to evaluate," Lin Hongfei did say before. So he didn't hesitate, "but the results of the assessment don't seem to be very good." ”
There are two very famous light transport aircraft in the same class as the Y-12IV: Beechcraft 1900 and Cessna 208 "Caravan", both of which are well-known local "natives", not only sold in North America and Europe for many years, with wide popularity, but more importantly, the manufacturers of these two aircraft have the background of the American consortium behind them, and the Y-12IV wants to achieve a good sales performance in the United States and North America, compared with the 1900, Cessna 208 competition, pure commercial competition Lin Hongfei is certainly not afraid, but if it is mixed with political factors, it is another matter.
"That's exactly what I'm going to say to you, Mr. Lin," said Michael. Pearson's voice carried a hint of smugness, "On behalf of the Canadian government, I extend an invitation to you, Mr. Lin, if you have a plan to put the production of this aircraft in Canada, the Canadian government will provide the greatest help and preferential treatment, and the Canadian government guarantees that your products will be fully competitive." ”
"Uh......" Lin Hongfei couldn't help but be stunned: This guy is helping the Canadian government attract investment?
"What? Mr. Lin, you are surprised? "Michael. Pearson laughed.
"No, the employment situation in Canada is not very optimistic, and such a factory can increase a lot of jobs, which is an irresistible temptation for any politician." Lin Hongfei shook his head, "I'm not surprised by this. ”
"So you said yes?" Michael. Pearson was overjoyed.
"No, I don't think the production of Y-12IV in North America is a good thing......" Lin Hongfei shook his head, he knows too well what politicians can do for political performance, and what they will do after the success of investment promotion, domestic enterprises have enough lessons: you are the master in the stage of investment promotion, but when your funds are landed, it is another matter.
This kind of thing is not just a product of the Republic, in fact, this situation is more common in the Western world, you ask why there is no such news coming out? Is there any mistake, this is a civilized world of freedom and democracy, how can such news come out?
"That's really...... It's so sad," Michael. Pearson was immediately disappointed, but he immediately put forward another idea, "But I can understand that investing in an aircraft manufacturing company requires a huge amount of money, which really needs to be carefully considered. ”
"Huh?"
"Green Plane," Michael. Pearson said, "Lin, remember that proposal we made earlier?" We can sign a 200-aircraft cooperation agreement, in the name of Canadian Aerospace Industries, to purchase 200 Y-12IV green aircraft from your company in the next 10 years, and you can get a huge result of 200 aircraft sales, I think, this is a huge achievement that will definitely help you go further in the political arena of your country. ”
It turns out that these guys have never given up! This guy hits this idea.
Lin Hongfei smiled, "Mr. Pearson, have you forgotten, our group and AVIC have different eras, the aircraft sales, after-sales and spare parts guarantee system can be built by ourselves, we do not have to go through AVIC, we have autonomy, we do not have to be limited by AVIC ......"
Michael. Pearson's face suddenly darkened: Damn it!
Yes, Pu. Hui Canada and the Canadian Aviation Industry Group have coveted the Y-12IV for a long time, and the 2-ton aircraft has plenty of interior space, and the easiest way to replace the more powerful engines is to instantly increase the load capacity to about 3.5 tons.
The fuselage, landing gear and hydraulic system of the Y-12IV are produced by AVIC No. 2 Group. Canada provides the power system, and the Canadian Aviation Industry Corporation retrofits the aircraft with avionics, and converts the aircraft into passenger aircraft, freighter, mixed passenger and cargo aircraft and VIP business jets according to the different needs of customers, and then the Canadian Aviation Industry Group Panda Company sells and after-sales the aircraft.
This is a secret agreement reached by the giants of the Canadian aviation industry a few years ago, because it avoids the 10-year cycle of development and market certification, and there is no development cost, the Canadian aviation industry will have the largest share of profits, and it can make enough money to sell one aircraft...... Not only can you make money from the aircraft, but you can also earn the most of the big ones from after-sales service.
In addition, because the whole aircraft is a new engine and airborne equipment installed in Canada, this means that the localization rate of the aircraft is more than 50%, so as to enjoy the preferential loans and tax policies of the Canadian government, which is equivalent to making an extra profit out of thin air.
Although the Bingcheng Aircraft Factory, which produces airplanes, shares a profit from selling green aircraft, it is not the same as Pu. Compared with Canada and Canadian Aerospace Industries, this amount of money is nothing at all, it can only be regarded as a little hard-earned money...... For the Republic's aviation industry, this is tantamount to a blood-sucking agreement.
Originally, everything was going smoothly, according to the general . Hui Canada and the Canadian Aviation Industry Group predicted that they would be able to sign the cooperation agreement with the Bingcheng Aircraft Factory and the Republic Aviation Industry Corporation by 1997 at the latest. What Hui Canada and Canadian Aviation Industry Group didn't expect was that Lin Hongfei, a bastard, appeared out of thin air, he not only successfully divided the Republic Aviation Industry Corporation in two, but even got the foreign sales and after-sales rights of the products...... What a damn one!
"Yes, that's right," he finally managed to suppress the anger in his heart, even though the anger made it almost difficult for him to keep his composure, "But, Lin, you have to believe that we have a lot of experience in the after-sales service. (To be continued......)
