[183] The Dream of Blue Water

If the shipbuilding industry wants to improve its level, it is not possible not to build warships, no matter how many civilian ships are built, whether warships should be built or not. Xiaoqiang then contacted the Ministry of State again.

Yuan Kedi was holding a meeting at a research institute when he received Xiaoqiang's call, and when he heard that Xiaoqiang was going to buy a warship, his heart blossomed, and he couldn't even care about the meeting, so he left the scene in a hurry.

Xiaoqiang said on the phone: "I told you last time that I would buy another warship, how about it, I didn't lie to you." ”

"Hehe, Xiaoqiang, we have also made several big deals, I can trust you, come quickly, I have good tea here, I am waiting for you."

General Yuan was happy while talking, and immediately instructed Li Mubai after hanging up the phone: "Mubai, book a box for me at the Zhuyuan Hotel, we have distinguished guests today." ”

Li Mubai asked in wonder: "Who is so big and makes your old man so happy?" ”

Yuan Kedi squinted his eyes and smiled at Li Mubai: "What do you say? ”

Li Mubai suddenly came to his senses, the one who can make Yuan Kedi laugh so brightly recently must be Cao Xiaoqiang, a big dog. You must know that as long as Cao Xiaoqiang is mentioned recently, Yuan Kedi can't stop laughing.

After the previous arms sales were successfully concluded, the arms sales department headed by Yuan Kedi and Li Mubai was commended by the Central Military Commission after the Spring Festival, and Li Mubai also recorded a third-class meritorious service.

If it weren't for the fact that the military department felt that this matter had just begun, according to the opinions of the various military regions and military factories below, perhaps Yuan Kedi's position would have been moved.

"The big dog is coming to buy again!?"

Li Mubai's voice was raised, his face flushed, and he looked a little excited.

The total amount of weapons purchased by the arms sales team of the Ministry of State and Xiaoqiang has reached an astronomical amount of 29.2 billion, which is equivalent to more than 4 billion US dollars! The amount of his procurement alone is more than one billion more than the country's total arms exports of $1.6 billion in 2009. Now the above attitude towards Xiaoqiang is even clearer, secretly 24-hour all-round monitoring and protection, but without the highest instructions of the Military Commission, no one is allowed to touch him! It is rumored that a certain general has said nakedly at the internal meeting, "Don't say that the problem has not been found until now, even if there is a problem, you must put it first!" ”

All this has given Xiaoqiang an invincible aura. Now everyone in the four headquarters knows that there is such a big dog. The intelligence source and its accurate final assembly even urgently proposed that Li Mubai should use his personal relationship to take the initiative to contact the other party to arrange future sales of jihua, but this jihua was a little ugly and was rejected by the above.

Xiaoqiang came to the Ministry of State with a familiar car, and was picked up by the secretary sent by Li Mubai at the gate.

After sitting down in the small conference room of the Ministry of State Affairs, Xiaoqiang drank the good tea that Yuan Kedi said, and said with a smile: "General Yuan didn't lie to me, it's really good tea, it's very fragrant." ”

Yuan Kedi turned his face blank and said seriously: "Xiao Li, bring me another pack of monkey kui in my office drawer." ”

Xiao Qiang was surprised, and said in his heart: "This won't be for me, right?" ”

Waiting for Li Mubai to bring the tea leaves, Yuan Kedi said happily: "People gave me a box, there are only two packs in it, this bag is unopened, you take it and drink it." ”

Xiaoqiang didn't expect that this tea was really for himself, so he hurriedly thanked him and accepted it. The heart said that Yuan Kedi was clever, and he would fight psychological warfare when he came up.

Squinting at the fragrant Taiping Monkey Kui, Xiao Qiang coughed, and was about to speak, only to see Yuan Kedi and Li Mubai staring at him with a smile, but the expression was too kind, as if he was watching a tempting meal, which made Xiao Qiang a little hairy.

But you can't swallow the words until they reach your mouth, can you? What's more, didn't you come here to buy things, how could you buy them without talking?

Xiao Qiang scolded the appearance of these two in his heart, adjusted his way of speaking, and said:

"General Yuan, our previous cooperation was very smooth, and this time I think it is a time to test our friendship. We are also old acquaintances, and the relationship is iron-clad, so I won't hide it.

Last time, the Xining that your old man sold me was really a pit, 680 million yuan! I took back a battleship that would have to be decommissioned in five years, and I was scolded half to death by the customer! It's easy to make some money, and it's all posted on this Xining. ”

After that, Xiaoqiang sighed heavily, looking at Yuan Kedi's reaction.

Yuan Kedi scolded in his heart: "The J-5 and J-6 that Lao Tzu sold you are all cabbage prices, you don't know how much money you hacked, and now you are still crying poor, if it is really so bad, why didn't you say it last time you bought a grenade." ”

Although Yuan Kedi was slandering in his heart, he smiled more kindly on his face: "This price is international, didn't I give you a discount?" Besides, as long as the Xining is properly maintained, it will not be a problem to use it for another thirty years. ”

Yuan Kedi squeezed his eyes and said: "Oh, it's just a small boat, Boss Cao doesn't have to be too serious." If you can buy more Luda this time, I will give you an intimate price. ”

Xiaoqiang looked at Yuan Kedi's smug smile at him, and said in his heart, Your old man is still provincial, and it will take another thirty years? Isn't that the Philippine Navy?

Xiaoqiang said: "Okay, tell me, what is the price of this intimate price?" ”

Yuan Kedi pretended to open the briefcase in front of him, took out the catalog of naval equipment, and pretended to look at it, but in fact, he was clear in his heart. Since Xiaoqiang bought a warship last time and said that he would purchase it next time, he read the already clear naval information from the beginning, and calculated the cost of dismantling, weapon depreciation, destruction and reloading, etc. He was surprised to find that the selling price of 680 million actually earned 600 million! At that time, his smile was crooked, which was equivalent to buying six brand-new 022 missile boats for the Navy.

Yuan Kedi looked through the catalog of naval equipment, and after delaying for a while, he said: "How about three to count you as 1.8 billion?" ”

In fact, he had already made a calculation. In Yuan Kedi's opinion, three are about to be retired, and the penniless brigade level can be replaced with a new 054, how can this account be considered a black account.

Xiaoqiang shook his head and said nothing.

Yuan Kedi was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Give you four!" 2.2 billion! ”

Xiaoqiang still didn't speak.

Yuan Kedi put away his kind smile and said with a straight face: "I'm talking about four 051Ds that were launched after 80 years, and the condition is much better than the Xining launched in 78!" ”

Xiaoqiang continued to remain silent, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Yuan Kedi was depressed, and if he changed to someone else, he might have been silent with a black face, but for Cao Xiaoqiang, he still felt that he was sure of it.

"Nanchang! Chongqing! Zunyi! Guilin! Four 051D Brigade Commander plus one 051Z Brigade Commander Hefei, a total of five are counted as 2.5 billion, this is my bottom line, it can't be cheaper! After that, Yuan Kedi closed the catalog of naval equipment with a dark face, and glared at Xiao Qiang fiercely, he planned to scare the slippery little bastard in front of him.

Xiao Qiang saw Yuan Kedi's face, and he was also a little panicked in his heart, he originally wanted to sell a pass, who knew that Yuan Kedi's price was lower and lower every time, so he had the idea of waiting and seeing.

Xiao Qiang saw that the price was not bad, and immediately said: "I can still accept this price, but my original intention is to buy more and not rush to settle the account." ”

When Yuan Kedi heard this, the expression on his face immediately turned from anger to joy, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I knew you wouldn't just buy this, you say, what else do you want?" For a while, Yuan Kedi changed his face again, as if he was coaxing a child to eat.

Xiaoqiang said: "I bought these five old goods for 2.5 billion, which is equivalent to giving the country a new 052B-class destroyer, can you help me with a shipyard, so that my customers can build their own 051D-class destroyers in the future?" ”

Yuan Ke said hostilely, it turns out that your kid is waiting for me here.

"Shipbuilding and military projects are very complicated, Xiaoqiang, can your customers be able to do it? All kinds of ship steel and electronic equipment for a small country, even if the information is complete, I guess you will still have a hard time doing it. ”

Xiaoqiang said resolutely: "Don't worry about this, my customers are not afraid of hardship, you calculate the value of all the information and equipment, we will buy it!" ”

Yuan Kedi saw that Xiaoqiang, this guy was really a king and a scale, and he was determined to make these outdated things by himself. Sidewalk:

"Okay, I'll help you ask, this price is calculated separately, and I'll let you know when the time comes."

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Xiaoqiang said, "I still want to buy a frigate." ”

Yuan Kedi expected that Xiaoqiang would buy a frigate after buying the destroyer, and said with a smile: "The Jiujiang and Nantong of the 053H Jianghu Type 1 you bought last time are 270 million each, and now there are three remaining in this model, namely Changzhi, Nanping, and Ji'an, how about counting you with 200 million each, a total of 600 million?" ”

Xiaoqiang was surprised: "Didn't I lose money last time, you said, how much does it cost for us to build a new 056?" Isn't it about 600 million? These are all old ships, look at this, how about 100 million! ”

Yuan Kedi's head shook like a rattle and said, "100 million is not good, it is not good." In this way, I will drop to the bottom at one time, 150 million a piece, no counteroffer! ”

Xiaoqiang said: "That's 450 million, okay!" But again, shipbuilding equipment should also be able to build this 053H Jianghu type. ”

Yuan Ke said: "Yes." ”

Xiao Jian added: "We also hope that China will plan a shipyard for us, and the entire design and planning will be designed by the Chinese side, and we will build it ourselves." ”

Yuan Kedi said: "Yes, I will ask for instructions on the shipyard, but you can think clearly, when the time comes, it will not be a shipyard that can be done, if your industry is not developed, then it will be necessary to build a variety of supporting factories, without fifty or sixty supporting factories, it is estimated that it is impossible to completely localize." ”

Xiaoqiang nodded and agreed.

"These frigates are not enough, so pack the rest of the 053H1 Jianghu II to me." Xiao Qiangdao.

Yuan Kedi replied like a few treasures: "There are still six 053H1 Jianghu Type 2 that have not been retired, namely Taizhou, Jinhua, Dandong, Shaoguan, Zhaotong, and Linfen, and you can take 150 million and 900 million." With the addition of previous purchases, the current total amount is 3.85 billion. How about you buy some more supply ships? Taicang-class supply ships like the Hongzehu are very useful. ”

Xiaoqiang said: "I won't buy second-hand supplies for supply ships, you can give me two new ships." ”

Yuan Kedi nodded and said: "Then set two Taicang-class supply ships, each of which counts you as 2 billion, this is a new ship, and there is no bargaining." "The manufacturing cycle will take more than three years, and I will give you the list as soon as possible to the top of the shipyard's manufacturing sequence. However, carrier-based helicopters are to be equipped separately after the shipbuilding is completed. ”

Xiaoqiang gritted his teeth and agreed, saying in his heart that this is more expensive than the TMD battleship, but for the dream of the blue ocean in his heart, we can still afford this money.

Three years later? In three years, will the new Chinese Navy be able to go to the Indian and Pacific Oceans? Xiaoqiang has been looking forward to such a day in his heart.

"I hope that China will be able to transfer to us free of charge the design drawings of general refrigeration ships, oil tankers, replenishment ships, and transport vessels, so that my customers can gain the ability to produce their own small offshore supply fleets." Xiaoqiang demanded.

Yuan Kedi nodded and said, "This request can be met." ”
