9-45 Finalization
In the office of the general manager of Chenguang Machinery Factory.
"Relocation? There are no such considerations for the time being. Lu Tianming very tactfully rejected the proposal of the county magistrate Zhou, as a company that has just come back from the dead, the task is to lay a solid foundation, not blindly expand.
Zhou Wen said: "Director Lu, from a long-term perspective, the city center continues to radiate outward, and the city center will not allow heavy industry enterprises to exist, so the relocation of the Chenguang factory is inevitable, and I think it is better to take precautions for everything." ”
Lu Tianming is not the kind of person who is short-sighted, he laughed and said: "There must be a road in front of the lane mountain, and the current things have not been done well, how can we think about the future, County Magistrate Zhou, you can rest assured, if the Chenguang Factory is relocated, our choice will definitely be your Nantai Industrial Park." ”
"Then I'll wait for the good news from the landing plant director." Zhou Wen got up and said goodbye, tonight's visit was informal, and it didn't have to be a result, and sending such a signal to Chenguang Factory would be considered a success.
At this time, it is already more than nine o'clock in the night, the workers are still busy in the workshop, in order to test tomorrow without going wrong, the vehicle needs to be strictly tested and debugged, these three prototypes are produced in a very short period of time overtime, each car is condensed with the hard work of technicians and front-line workers, if the chain is dropped at the critical moment, no one can afford this responsibility.
Liu Ziguang drove Zhou Wen home, and then came to the hotel to find Zheng Chen.
A year ago, Zheng Chen, a gambling Guangdong jewelry merchant, was kidnapped in the Zamaiyang Special District of Myanmar and locked up in the same water prison with a mainlander named Xuanzi, spending the most difficult years of his life.
He quit the vice of gambling, conscientiously do business, a gambling stone success made him a fortune, become a well-known jade merchant in Guangdong and even Hong Kong, this heart of Asia auction, Zheng Chen also participated, with his strength of course it is impossible to participate in the auction, just want to feel the atmosphere of the scene, see the rare jade in recent years.
Coincidentally, Zheng Chen saw Liu Ziguang at the auction, but he was not sure that it was the great benefactor who had rescued him from the abyss, and later contacted Liu Ziguang through a friend, both of them were very emotional, Zheng Chen has a lot of connections in Hong Kong, and Liu Ziguang is looking for someone to take care of Ruifeng Foreign Bank, a leather bag company, so he simply entrusted it to Zheng Chen to manage.
Zheng Chen is an expert in jade identification, and he doesn't know anything about armored vehicles, but it doesn't hurt, anyway, Liu Ziguang, the person who can make the decision, is right in front of him.
Liu Ziguang explained some things to Zheng Qiang before going home, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw his father sitting on the sand sighing, and a pile of cigarette butts had accumulated in the ashtray.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Liu Ziguang asked.
"The selection of the model is troublesome, if the model I participated in the design and manufacture is not selected, what a shame." Dad lit another cigarette and sighed, Liu Ziguang couldn't help but laugh dumbly, Dad actually suffered from gains and losses like a young man in his twenties, but this is also good, it is better for the elderly to have something to do than to be bored at home.
"Dad, don't worry, Type A will definitely be selected." Liu Ziguang said conclusively.
"You're not a foreign businessman, how can you be so sure? I've heard that foreign companies are interested in Type B. "Dad is not easy to fool, and he has already learned clearly about what happened at night through his old co-workers.
"If you don't believe it, let's bet, we'll see tomorrow, both Type A and Type C can be selected, but Type B will have no show."
Dad still shook his head: "It's good to be like what you said, I heard that a foreign businessman doesn't understand anything, he is a layman, how can he know how good things are." ”
"Okay, okay, let's rest quickly, I have to go to work tomorrow morning, okay, if the foreign businessman chooses type B, I will be punished for brushing the bowl for a month." Liu Ziguang hurriedly sent his father back to the bedroom, and went into the study by himself to turn on the computer for parameter comparison.
The three types of armored vehicles provided by Chenguang Machinery Factory can be said to have their own merits, each of which has a great origin, the prototype of the first type is the Soviet-style BTR4o armored car, although the design of this armored car is old, but the process is simple, the cost is low, the appearance is powerful, the deterrent is strong, suitable for transformation into a variety of weapon platforms, in fact, it is the most in line with the selection requirements, in order to rush to produce a sample car, Lu Tianming used the old relationship of the army, and turned out a Soviet original BTR4o armored car from the scrap heap of a certain department, It was pulled to the factory by a flatbed truck for reverse mapping, and it took the shortest time to imitate it.
Type C is the pride of the Chenguang factory, this anti-mine armored transport vehicle is actually a model of the project in the eighties, the prototype is the South African Caspi series of mine protection vehicles, and later because of the changing international situation, domestic system reform, this project will end without a problem, but the technology has been reserved, when the order of Ruifeng Foreign Bank came down, Lu Tianming first thought of this model, in fact, this car is more suitable for low-intensity combat than Type A, strong passability, high mobility, can prevent mines and light weapons, The only downside is the slightly higher price.
As for the B-type cottage Hummer that is not favored by Liu Ziguang, in fact, it also has a great history, this is a medium-sized four-wheel drive transport vehicle based on the chassis of a car factory in Nanjing in 1975, and later the reform and opening up, the project was also launched, but the technical data was retained, and came to the Chenguang factory, this time in order to select, the technical staff also turned the drawings out of the old paper pile, hoping to make a waste of a handful.
According to his concept, the armored force of the Western Sadamoan Resistance Army should be a wheeled armored vehicle as the main body, a light mobile force, with high, medium and low grades matching each other, and it is impossible to equip only one model.
This is the reason why he asked Chenguang Factory to come up with three models to choose from, one thing is not bothering the two masters, and the fertilizer does not flow into the fields of outsiders.
In the international arms market, armored vehicles and tanks are relatively high-end commodities, most of which are controlled by state-level arms dealers, and transactions at this level often have complex political factors, and they cannot be bought with money, and Liu Ziguang does not have a few big children, and a very ordinary 4x4 armored car on the market will be sold for more than one million, if it is a tracked type, and then equipped with a 25 mm automatic machine gun, I am afraid that Liu Ziguang will not be able to afford to sell iron.
As for the tank, which costs at least 10 million or more, Liu Ziguang has never thought of that at all.
In a small African place like Western Sadamoa, where birds don't poop, it is enough to get a few domestically produced copycat armored vehicles to fill the scene.
After careful analysis, he decided to order 30 Type A armored vehicles and 20 Type C mine-protected vehicles, and in addition to purchasing a batch of civilian four-wheel drive off-road vehicles in the domestic market to serve as commuter vehicles, this light armored unit can be built.
After the plan was confirmed, Liu Ziguang sent an email to Zheng Chen and went to rest, and it was already two o'clock in the morning.
Early the next morning, Mr. Zheng of Hong Kong Ruifeng Foreign Company visited Chenguang Machinery Factory again, accompanied by the leaders of the factory, watched the driving performance of three models of prototype cars on various complex terrains, and decided on the spot to order 30 models of type A and 20 types of C.
Lu Tianming's face was embarrassed: "Mr. Zheng, if this is the case, there will definitely be appropriate changes in the price, because the order quantity is direct and the cost is." ”
Zheng Chen said very generously: "We can continue to talk about the price, everyone understands the principle of getting what you pay for, in fact, I have faxed the parameters to the final customer last night, and this order is what they decided." ”
"Thank you for your understanding, long live your understanding." Lu Tianming was pleased to pull Zheng Chen's hand and shook it, he knew that the opportunity of the Chenguang Factory was coming, Model A was an imitation of the outdated Soviet armored car, naturally there was nothing to talk about, but Type C was a high-quality and inexpensive mine protection vehicle, this kind of vehicle is far more useful than a simple armored car, if it becomes popular in the world, orders will come like snowflakes in the future, and the Chenguang Factory will really rise.
"In terms of price, we will try our best to keep it to the lowest possible level, and hope that our cooperation can be successful!" Lu Tianming's eyes flashed with expectation, and other engineers and technicians and workers also exchanged happy glances with each other.
Liu Ziguang no longer worries about the follow-up, anyway, no matter what price Chenguang Factory offers, Zheng Chen will take it all, even if it is a few million more than the budget, and now Liu Ziguang has 20 million US dollars in his account, synthesizing more than 100 million yuan, and his wealth is thick.
He took the car expert Xuanzi to drive to a local car sales market, looking for a cheap four-wheel drive off-road vehicle, those vehicles with the word suV are not considered, pick and choose only a few domestic off-road vehicles are suitable, but according to Xuanzi, domestic cars are still unreliable, to say that the off-road vehicle that can work for a long time in a harsh environment is not a problem, it has to be Toyota's Land Cruiser.
"This car doesn't work, absolutely not." Liu Ziguang refused without hesitation.
Xuanzi wondered: "Brother, I didn't expect you to be quite radical and boycott Japanese products." ”
Liu Ziguang said: "My consciousness is not so high, this car is too expensive, millions at every turn, I can't afford to use it." ”
Xuanzi didn't notice that Liu Ziguang said "can't afford it" instead of "can't afford it", and continued to argue: "This car is really not bad, over there in Qinghai, Gansu, the road is full of Land Cruisers, you get what you pay for, you spend a lot of money on the car, but you can save the repair fee." ”
Liu Ziguang shook his head: "I didn't mean that, such an expensive car, if it is blown up, it will not be distressed to death." ”
"Blown up? Why did you blow it up? "Xuanzi is a little confused.
