Chapter 177: Million Pounds
Robert's eyes were complicated, and he looked at Qin Zhenhua and a few people jumping down, and at this time, Qin Zhenhua pointed to the barrel of the gun and stretched out his thumb: "Firepower, OK!" Protection, I don't know, mobility, scum! ”
Qin Zhenhua gave an objective evaluation, and this sentence made the faces of the British people present darken.
After that, the British side was obviously cautious, and never let them touch anything else, and the time to go down was to inspect the production line, their factory was clean and tidy, and all kinds of spare parts were placed neatly, it seems, it really has a pleasing feeling, I have to say that the heritage of this powerful industrial country is also reflected in all aspects.
The first time you see the production line in the West, you can find that there is a big difference from the Soviet series, if you summarize it, people are definitely the most ergonomic, in domestic terms, it is called enjoyment.
For example, the installation of load wheels, there is a special spreader to lift over, and then there is hydraulic equipment installation, saving time and effort.
At the end of the day's inspection, Robert began to test Minister Zhu and Commander Huang again, but both said that they would study and study it and talk about it the next day.
So, the dinner that day was just a staggered meeting, everyone tacitly did not mention the issue of cooperation, Qin Zhenhua took Wang Erzhu to experience a Western-style banquet, which is also a rare experience.
The next day, a group of people walked into the conference room, and the discussion about the introduction of various technologies finally began.
In fact, this was originally planned, the eastern powers are facing a threat from the north and need to update their military equipment, and in terms of the army, the most urgent thing is tanks.
The British side of the meeting was still dominated by Robert, and there were also a number of enterprise personnel, such as George, the sales department manager of the Leeds State Royal Arsenal, Joyce, the chief engineer of the technical department, and Jackson of Vickers, who were all full of expectations at this time.
Since the end of World War II, the British colonies have become independent, since that time, they began to go downhill, it is no longer the empire that never sets, after the rapid development after the war, they have also entered a period of stagnation, now, their military industrial enterprises, because many are still state-owned, there is no vitality, this is not until the eighties, the Iron Lady reformed with a big axe, and constantly promoted privatization, only to finally rejuvenate these military enterprises.
Now, of course, they are also looking forward to opening the door of the big eastern countries and making a lot of business.
Yesterday, the guests of these inspection groups did not mention what to buy or what to introduce, so they must have discussed it after going back, and now there should be a result, right?
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have already taken you to see our Chivoltan tank yesterday, and you have already tested it, so you must have a deeper understanding of our tank, which is the most suitable main battle equipment for you." Robert, as the main person in charge of the British side, spoke first: "Now, let our Mr. Joyce, chief engineer of the technical department of the Leeds State Royal Arsenal, give you a detailed introduction to the details of this tank." ”
The slide projector was turned on, and a slide was put on it, and this first one was not the overall design of Chivoltan, but a drawing of the engine! It seems that they already know what the other party was dissatisfied with yesterday, so they are the first to take the lead today.
"Our Chivoltan has always been developing and improving." Joyce said: "The engine currently used in our tank has a power of 720 horsepower, and now, after further improvement, the engine can achieve a power output of 800 horsepower, and we equip this engine to our Chivoltan, forming the latest Chivoltan-800, and there is also the prospect of further increasing to 900 horsepower, this tank with further power will be named Chivoltan-900."
They are also well aware of the weaknesses of their tanks, so even if there are no guests from the East, they themselves plan to improve this tank according to this idea, focusing on improving its power system, at the beginning, only 585 horsepower, to now, has been increased to 720 horsepower, the improvement of the power system is quite effective, and because of its large weight, so, 720 horsepower can not meet the needs of users, then simply continue to improve, There will be 800 hp or even 900 hp models in the future, and the tank will simply be suffixed according to this power.
This directly blocked the other party's mouth, can you still make a fuss about the power system? The shortcomings of the power have been filled, we are most concerned about the user's feelings, you are not satisfied, then we will change, change until you are satisfied!
Robert looked at the other side, looking at the other party's face with a somewhat stunned expression, still quite satisfied, well, I didn't say it now, right?
Although there was no need for them to set up any bugging devices, as long as they looked at the lights in the other party's room until the second half of the night, they knew that they were definitely discussing the advantages and disadvantages of their own tank, and they planned to bring this defect out of today's negotiations.
Now, what else do you say?
Chivoltan is the tank that best meets your needs, so you can place an order obediently!
George is also looking at the other side, his gaze swept over the faces of several people, when selling, you must know yourself and the other, from the other party's seat, he has found the shadow of several engine experts on the other side, you can see that the other party is whispering at this time, probably envying their own engine research and development strength.
The engine is the most test of a country's industrial level, and this is the strength of the United Kingdom, whether it is a car engine, or an aircraft engine, they are first-class.
Joyce is still gushing about the introduction, the translator on the side almost translated the other party's introduction, without changing other structures, by increasing the pressure of the oil pump, improving the atomization effect, and then installing a more advanced turbocharger, blowing in more air, this performance improvement is achieved, and various rotation mechanisms can also be strengthened, increase the speed of the engine, and so on.
He focused on the powertrain and talked endlessly, and when he was done, George picked up the conversation.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I wonder if you are satisfied with our tank? If you order now, we will give you the most suitable price, which will not exceed 1 million pounds per tank. ”
"Poof... Ahem, ahem. When he heard this, Commander Huang suddenly lost his temper, squirted out a mouthful of water, and then coughed again and again.
