Chapter 226: Verbal Guarantees

Manchester, Old Trafford. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The cheers were loud and loud, even outside the stadium were deafening.

No need to guess, it must have been Manchester United who scored.

Wang Dong is not a fan of Manchester United, and he doesn't know much about football, let alone care.

The place and time of the meeting were proposed by the "Dragon Four", and the choice of Manchester and today was obviously to take advantage of the match between Manchester United and Bayern.

"How?"

After reading "Dragon Four", Wang Dong asked and handed over a cigarette.

"It's very thoughtful, but it's also very unrealistic." After catching the cigarette, "Dragon Four" lowered the window glass a little. "Your idea is fine, but the cooperation between companies will definitely not work."

Wang Dong didn't say anything and handed over the lighter.

Lighting a cigarette, "Long Si" said: "Britain is a party to 'Batumi' and a signatory to the Wassenaar Agreement, and its relationship with the United States is extremely close, not to mention that D&F is just a small company, even a giant like BAE will never be able to get permission from the British government." What's more, this matter is related to the third-generation standard-caliber guns and ammunition of the NATO bloc, involving more than a dozen member states, including the United States. It's really going to be a big fuss, not to mention cooperation, it's a blessing that you can continue to stay in the UK. Similarly, in the event of a total military embargo on our country, our authorities would not have approved such an important cooperation project, even if you had obtained permission from the British Government. ”

Wang Dong also lit a cigarette and didn't say anything.

In fact, he had already thought of the reply of "Dragon Four" and knew that this road would not work.

Initially, when Zhao Yu proposed to cooperate with the "Xinbao" group, Wang Dong did not agree, and also took this issue into account.

After that, Gao Jun proposed to cooperate again, but Wang Dong still did not make a decision immediately, which is also the reason.

"If I'm not mistaken, you proposed to cooperate with the 'Xinbao' group to use it as capital to negotiate with BAE Systems."

"In order to acquire the shares of FN held by BAE Systems, and become the majority shareholder of FN Corporation."

"So, as you already know, FN has encountered financial problems, and several major shareholders are unwilling to provide funds, and it will be a matter of two or three years for it to go bankrupt."

Wang Dong nodded, indicating that "Dragon Four" was not wrong.

"Buying FN is a shortcut, but it's not rushing. As expected, you'll soon be able to get a big order from the Saudi Army. It's just that it's not time to celebrate. After a slight pause, "Long Si" said again: "You have to pay attention to the situation in South Asia, maybe it won't be long before India, which has a lot of money and a lot of fools, will bring FN back to life." It's just that this is also the last chance. ”

"India?"

"Long Si" smiled and said, "Just remember, think about the rest." ”

Wang Dong smiled bitterly, but "Long Si" was willing to provide this information, which had already helped a lot, so it was not easy to ask further.

"We can't talk about cooperation, but there are other ways."

"Fourth Brother ......"

"Do you have a R&D facility?"

"I just formed one, and Zhao Yu is in charge, but I haven't found the right person, and the scale is not large, let alone the development results."

"Long Si" nodded slightly, and said, "In my judgment, it is absolutely impossible to directly provide technology, especially the formulation and production process of binary propellants. Not to mention that D&F is a British arsenal, even in China, these are top military secrets. ”

"This ......"

"As for the stacked spraying and filling process, if you can ensure that it is completely in your own hands, such as letting Zhao Yu master the core technology alone, it is not a big problem."

Wang Dong frowned and said, "You mean, only provide the production process of guns and bullets?" ”

"It's not a provision."

"That's ......"

"Let's put it this way, your purpose is to fool BAE Systems with a few high-performance countersunks, so what you need is not a production line, let alone a full set of production technology, but an assembly line and the bullets made by that assembly line."

As soon as "Dragon Four" said this, Wang Dong understood.

If it is just an assembly line, there is no need to produce binary propellants on its own, or even master the complete stack spray filling process.

All that is needed is a few necessary pieces of equipment, as well as a few skilled workers.

Of course, with a few more specialists, it would be perfect.

"If it's just used to fool BAE Systems, it shouldn't be a big problem. When the time comes, I will do some work on Zhao Yu's side to convince BAE Systems that we have limited the high-performance countersunk bomb and started trial production, so the output is not very large. ”

"Ryusi" smiled, indicating that this is what it meant.

"The problem is, we certainly can't use this against the Saudi Army, unless we use the existing ammunition, which is 6.6mm and 8.8mm ammunition."

"Questions?"

"Just take the order of the Saudi Army, there will definitely be no problem." Wang Dong smiled faintly and said, "It's just that cooperation is built on the basis of win-win." If the Saudi Army's order can bring huge profits to D&F, it is also an opportunity for Huaxia arms companies to overtake in a corner. Don't forget, Saudi Arabia is the number one country in the Gulf region, followed by the UAE, Kuwait, Oman and other tyrant countries. If it can be highly appreciated by the Saudi Army, it will be easy to obtain procurement from other countries. Then there are a number of countries that have close ties to Saudi Arabia. As expected, in a few years, the Chinese standard firearms will become the standard equipment of more than ten countries. In addition to the huge profits, the political, military, and diplomatic implications are even greater. ”

"You kid......"

"Fourth brother, I'm not wrong, right?"

"Ryusi" shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Before coming over, the 'old man' told me that if nothing like that happened, he would consider leaving the place to you. ”

"What's the point of talking about this now?"

"yes, it really doesn't make sense." With a long sigh, "Long Si" said: "The problem of exporting guns and ammunition to Saudi Arabia should not be very big. Those core technologies that cannot be exported, such as binary propellants, can be exported to finished products, after all, local tyrants don't care much about the price. Technologies with a lower level of secrecy, such as the stacking process, can be used only in Saudi factories through an agreement with Saudi Arabia. ”

"This ......"

"Our technology and processes are top-notch and unique, and the requirement to use them only in Saudi factories gives the Saudi authorities a lot of face."

Wang Dong nodded slightly and said, "In this case, we have to negotiate with the Saudi authorities as soon as possible." ”

"Don't worry. What I'm giving you is just a verbal assurance, and whether or not you can get approval depends on the meaning of the above. ”

"How long?"

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be delayed for long, after all, the 'old man' didn't stop me from coming to meet you, which shows that there is still a little hope."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
