"Shanghai Aircraft Factory has taken a stake in Xianglong Commercial Aircraft Company? Mayor Murong, although I don't know much about your situation in China, how much did your aircraft factory and aircraft design and research institute cost? When Jon heard Murong Kang's words, he immediately smiled.

The aircraft factory did not discount at all at the beginning, and the SASAC and the Shanghai municipal government paid a lot of money, and how these accounts were calculated is known only to the Chinese.

What's more, as long as the Shanghai municipal government and China's SASAC are communicated, there is no problem for them to withdraw from this.

The Airbus Aircraft Company has spent more than $25 billion, equivalent to more than 200 billion yuan, from the establishment of a series of aircraft, and according to the current division of equity, the Chinese government will have to invest more than 100 billion yuan in the 49 percent of the shares in the hands of the Chinese government in the end to be able to compete with Boeing and Airbus Aircraft. Moreover, if it is unable to obtain market orders, the Chinese government's money will be wasted.

No official would do such a stupid thing.

"Mr. Jon, this is our trade secret, I suppose as a business competitor, it's very rude to inquire about these things, right?" Murong Kang said with a gloomy face.

"Mayor Murong, Mr. Jon is also here to help us. Since the beginning of the 9327 factory, Yun Fei has relied on his own background to embezzle national assets, and all the equipment and workers of the entire 9327 factory, including related technologies, only cost 20 or 30 million yuan. In the acquisition of state-owned enterprises in the first two years, more than a dozen state-owned factories were acquired at polar prices...... "Zhu Mingyu didn't expect that Murong Kang, the mayor of Shanghai, who had no intersection with Yun Fei, would actually help Yun Fei speak.

Doesn't he want political achievements?

"Enough, Director Zhu, what is going on with this matter, that is the matter of your State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and it has nothing to do with our Shanghai Stock Exchange. Moreover, even if the cloud is not embezzling national assets. Naturally, it should be handled by you. What does it have to do with me? What's more, this matter was decided by Yu Jianhua, director of your State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission...... "Murong Kang really didn't expect Zhu Mingyu to be such a person, as if the Americans were his father.

His special identity is destined that he will not climb up, his political achievements or anything, he doesn't matter, he just thinks about the country and the people. Sometimes, of course, it's for yourself.

And Zhu Mingyu is obviously attacking Yun Fei.

A few years ago, Yun Fei's embezzlement of state assets caused a lot of uproar, but Yun Fei had a contract for the transfer of assets of the 9327 factory. It is stamped with the bright red official seals of dozens of state departments, many of which are ministerial-level official seals, and there are even seals of the military logistics and equipment department.

Zhu Mingyu's grandson is obviously in front of the Americans, and the black government!

That translation is not a thing, it is obviously Chinese, and he actually translated his dialogue with Zhu Mingyu word for word. This Murong Kang glared at her a few times.

"Mayor Murong, our Boeing Company is here with sincerity. Once we reach an agreement, your Shanghai aircraft factory will be able to assemble our Boeing aircraft this year, which is good for your political performance. However, it is a very strong ...... that the Chinese's political achievements are mainly economic indicators.

But the same is true for some heavy dà projects.

The Shanghai Municipal Government is actively engaged in aircraft industry projects, and it is largely because this project is a key national project.

The state's three-step plan in the aviation industry to first cooperate with foreign countries in production, then co-design, and finally complete localization was completely frustrated after Boeing acquired McDonnell Douglas aircraft. Airbus' contract with China to produce the AE-100 aircraft was torn up just after it began operation, and China's large aircraft industry returned to its initial stage before the start of operation.

Yun Fei started the big plane project, and a big Cheng dù was for the sake of the country's face, although his starting point was not necessarily this. But this at least tells the world that China is not without understanding. This project is an absolute achievement for the head of any local government.

However, the project requires a huge investment, and it is unclear whether it will be successful. This has a great impact on the performance of the officials in charge of the Shanghai municipal government, especially after failure, and it is absolutely necessary for people to take responsibility. Naturally, this responsibility cannot be borne by Yun Fei, after all, he is not a person in the system, nor is he a government official.

"Mr. Jon doesn't seem to know as much about China as you say! It is indeed a great achievement to cooperate with you, but I am a member of the Communist Party, and my goal is to dedicate my life to my motherland! I cannot afford to lose the interests of our motherland for the sake of the slightest personal gain! Murong Kang said solemnly.

This is basically a tear in the face.

"Or does Mr. Jon think we Chinese are fools? What was the end result of McDonnell Douglas using such conditions to induce officials with little strategic vision to dismount our own large aircraft project and introduce aircraft production from you Americans? Now that you're using the same means again, do you think it's possible to succeed? "Murong Kang has become righteous and righteous at this time.

Can't other Chinese officials see these things? People like Zhu Mingyu can't see such results?

No, they are all able to see.

But they still want to work with the Americans, and for what?

Achievement!

In order to climb up.

Murong Kang is different, he doesn't need to climb up. Moreover, in order to help Yun Fei's large aircraft project escort, he has now decided to strive to stay in his current position for a few more years. As long as the Shanghai municipal government does not nod, even if the SASAC agrees to cooperate with the Americans, it is impossible to think about spun off the Shanghai aircraft factory from the research and development of the Chinese's own large aircraft projects and use it to assemble foreign aircraft.

In the 70s, the Shanghai Aircraft Factory was under the direct jurisdiction of the state, but in the 80s, when the Yun-10 had just flown into the sky, the factory was under the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Municipal Government.

And in the nineties, when the SASAC was established, it is a little unclear who is under the jurisdiction of this aircraft factory.

It is precisely for this reason that neither the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission nor the Shanghai Municipal Government raised the issue of equity at the beginning of the discussion of the plant. Although this is a confused account, it is clear in everyone's hearts.

To say that Yun Fei embezzled national assets is obviously harboring evil intentions.

Yun Fei 15 billion was smashed out, and it was impossible to get such a reputation for such a manufacturing plant that was just an assembly factory.

"Mayor Murong, it doesn't make sense for you to say this. We, Boeing, are here to help you, and you can only produce an old-fashioned aircraft like the Y-6 as a passenger plane in China, do you think it is in line with the image of China's status as a great power? You know better than we do how desperate China's need for jerking off is, right? And the 717 and 747 we provide can solve your problem......" Jon's face was full of sneer.

He really didn't expect to meet such a strange official in Shanghai, China.

"Are you Boeing really here to help us develop China's aviation industry? Mr. Jon, in that case, why don't you export your aircraft manufacturing technology to China? It is best to be able to export to us your passenger planes with more than 300 seats, I think, as long as you are willing to export, no matter how much money you have, we will buy it if China smashes the pot and sells iron! Murong Kang said with a sneer.

Boeing dares to export manufacturing technology for large aircraft to China?

This is obviously not possible.

If Boeing dares to export its top-notch aircraft technology to China, it is estimated that the government will buy it back by smashing the pot and selling iron, and then it will be able to use these technologies to develop China's strategic bombers and military transport aircraft. Even if Boeing wanted to sell it, the U.S. government would not agree to it.

"......" Jon. Carson was speechless for a moment.

"Don't sell technology? Don't say anything to help us China and stand on the moral high ground. If we use our manpower and material resources to produce and assemble your aircraft in our country, and then let us spend a lot of money to buy them, do you Americans make less money from our China? Are you afraid of another competitor like Airbus? Or are you worried that after China has the technology to manufacture large aircraft, it will force you to cut prices sharply to get orders from China? As long as I am the mayor of Shanghai for one day, you don't want to achieve your goals! After Murong Kang finished speaking, he walked away.

Zhu Mingyu, who was left with a stunned face, and didn't know whether he should translate all the rest of the words to the Americans as they were.

The translator, in particular, admired the mayor of Shanghai, who had just taken office.

It is probably unique for a Chinese official to dare to say such things in front of foreigners, especially Americans, the most powerful in the world. If these words are disseminated, it is very likely that Americans will form a very bad impression of him, and it will definitely affect Americans' investment in Shanghai, the world's financial center.

Once such a consequence occurs, Murong Kang's position is likely to be unsecure.

In China, no leader likes such subordinates who have no overall view, and Murong Kang's appearance is completely inconsistent with the image of officials in the system.

"Mr. Jon, this guy is a madman, let's be like him......" Zhu Mingyu saw that Jon's face was not good-looking, and immediately reacted, "The Shanghai Municipal Government can't call the shots in this matter, we can first convince some competent departments in the capital, and then let the above directly issue a document ......"

"Really?" Jon asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, after all, the Shanghai Aircraft Factory is under the jurisdiction of our State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and we in China are not the only places that can build large aircraft, as long as the leaders of the higher departments are persuaded not to produce in Shanghai, it may be more cost-effective to go to other cities...... "Zhu Mingyu is completely a traitor...... (To be continued......)
