Chapter 721 - Arms Sales Negotiations Underway
The first negotiation came quickly, and Zhang Shusheng even suspected that the chief steward couldn't hold his breath, so he found someone to do the relevant materials, and after discussing the offer with the emperor Lao'er, he was ready to negotiate.
The news came from Hughes himself, but the request for negotiation was sent by the Huff Imperial Ministry of Defense.
"Mr. Zhang, please rest assured, now that the negotiations are about to begin, we generals should not act rashly. For the sake of both sides, we will certainly offer our sincerity at the right time. ”
Hughes's words are simple and direct, he is not a professional negotiator, he has no more ways to face Zhang Shusheng, in the final analysis, the Huff Empire is the party that asks for people, and it is almost a dream to win Zhang Shusheng by rhetoric.
"Hehe, Mr. Hughes is too worried, I understand General Mian Kang's situation very well, don't worry, His Majesty the Emperor thinks that General Mian Kang is a very good military strategist and politician, and we will show the sincerity of cooperation."
Zhang Shusheng's heart is bright, don't look at Hughes and Mian Kang shouting about cooperation and interests, they look shameless, in fact, Mian Kang is very shrewd, he will never come up and quote the reserve price of the Harf Empire.
They have to wait, wait for the situation of the negotiation to be clear, and then stand up, and with a slight flick, the whole negotiation will come to fruition, and Mian Kang will get the huge benefits he wants, but he will not fall into the hands of others, let alone cause bad consequences.
Zhang Shusheng is not in a hurry, it should be someone from the Haff Empire who is in a hurry.
The negotiation was scheduled to be carried out later the next day, through the virtual universe network, and Zhang Shusheng arranged for Jiang Baili, Wei Sancai, Su Yuren, Bai Chongxi and a clerk, including himself, a total of 6 people to participate in the negotiation.
"Baili, how is the progress of those warships?"
Zhang Shusheng was already planning for this negotiation, and the first action was to drive the 35 battleships that he could take out now to the secret warehouse on the edge of the Lost Star Domain in advance and place them.
"Your Majesty, the 35 battleships for sale have already set off, and it is estimated that it will only take 12 days to reach the edge of the Lost Star Field through the Jump Gate.
In addition, the battleships that need to be sold to the Orions are setting sail one after another, and the other party has already urged us many times, and they are really in a hurry. ”
Jiang Baili said simply, since His Majesty partially delegated the power of military sales, the interface high-ranking officials on Orion's side have been urging him all day long to let him ship the goods as soon as possible.
However, after Zhang Shusheng spoke, Jiang Baili arranged for the delivery of these warships to the Shusheng Company, and then the Shusheng Company exported them to the Orioners.
Although this left-handed game is simple and straightforward, it has a great effect on the signboard of Shusheng Company.
Even for a long time in the future, the Tianlong-class battleship, a foreign trade battleship, will be sold to various countries in the name of Shusheng's fist product.
"Well, you have to arrange this matter, it is related to our negotiations with the Huff Empire in the future."
Zhang Shusheng didn't say much, anyway, he would understand when the arms sales negotiations were in the future.
Hanging up the communication, Zhang Shusheng picked up a piece of printing paper, which was sent by an adjutant of the Harf Empire's Governor's Office, although He Fuduo stood behind him, but his words seemed a little impolite, as if he thought that a first-level civilization like China should be a second-level civilization.
The aide-de-camp, signed by Yan Ke, also hinted in the letter that Governor Hefudo was an imperial celebrity, a minister favored by the emperor, and that he could decide the fate of the negotiations.
"Stupid, what a guy who doesn't know what's going on."
Zhang Shusheng flicked his fingers, and the paper in front of him ignited, and quickly turned into a pile of ashes, and the robot maid quickly came over and packed it into the trash.
He originally wanted to communicate with this guy named He Fuduo, after all, there was no need to completely close this door, although Mian Kang showed great enthusiasm for cooperation, and even met him on the virtual network, but Zhang Shusheng always believed that once the business became exclusive, it would be difficult to discuss.
He realized that he still had to teach the manager some lesson before he bowed his head.
……
Negotiations began quickly, still in a virtual meeting room, with no prelude, and everyone was on time.
Zhang Shusheng attended as an arms sales representative, and he entered on time, and he glanced at the people of the Hafu Empire, the two heads of the negotiation team, the chief manager He Fuduo and the general Mian Kang were all present.
"This is His Excellency He Fuduo, the head of the royal family of the Haf Empire, and this is General Mian Kang......"
When they heard that the Chinese side introduced Zhang Shusheng, the arms sales representative, as the prince of the imperial family, and the military prime minister and a number of top leaders of the imperial departments attended, He Fuduo and Mian Kang nodded slightly, this small country finally knows how to do it, and did not embarrass itself.
If both of your side are out of the game, but the other side does not have important people to attend the negotiation, it is too ugly.
On behalf of the royal family of the Haff Empire, I would like to thank your country for producing such high-quality battleships, and I also hope that our two countries can achieve significant results in this arms procurement negotiation in line with the principle of win-win results.
The Haff Empire, as a senior second-level civilization, is a ......"
There was no more rounding up in the negotiations, and as soon as they came up, the head of the Hafu Empire, He Fuduo, boasted a few words and said a few empty words, and then expressed the hope that the Chinese side could give a detailed introduction to the parameters, quality, production, and transportation of the battleships.
Zhang Shusheng handed over this task to Su Yuren of the military, and as the minister of operations, he was also very familiar with these situations.
"This Draco-class battleship we produce, in addition to its own use, is also exported to the Orion Alliance, now I will show you a real battlefield documentary......
Su Yuren didn't dare to talk like He Fuduo at the meeting, after all, the emperor was sitting here, he was simple and direct, and first played a short film, which was the front-line combat picture provided by Orion.
The picture is divided into two parts, one part is the Draco-class battleship against the G-type ordinary battleship.
From receiving the enemy to firing, the whole process is very smooth, the Draco-class battleships are not only far ahead of those G-type battleships in terms of speed and charge, but also the two main guns fire before the enemy, and one by one the G-type battleships were blown up in the air.
The second part of the scene is a Draco-class battleship against a new type of battleship, but only two of the people in the Huff Empire present, including Mian Kang, recognized it, it was an F-class battleship.
Originally, the Orions wanted to wait for the new battleships to gather a certain number of them and take out their surnames to break through the defense line again, but they had to use it as a last resort after the battle reached a stalemate, but they unexpectedly encountered the Rankers' F-class battleship fleet at the moment of breaking through the defense line.
The Dracon-class battleship had a 1:1.5 ratio of numbers to the Silvermoon Empire's Kyaukyue S3-type F-class battleship, and the result was as shown on the screen, which was a big surprise.
As soon as the two sides exchanged fire, each battleship was hit, and the final result was that 18 Tianlong-class battleships were destroyed, and 26 Rankers' Bright Moon battleships were destroyed.
He just knew that the Chinese had a very advanced battleship in their hands, and he also looked at a small part of the intelligence, but he did not expect that its surname could be so advanced, although it had a numerical disadvantage, but it could actually cause greater results, which was incredible.
"Now, let me introduce the main surnames and parameters of the Tenryu-class battleship......"
Su Yuren gave a brief introduction, emphasizing its huge advantages in acceleration, energy supply and firepower, and directly compared it with the Rankers' F-class battleship Kyaukyue type, and the overall surname energy was almost 15 percentage points higher.
"There is no doubt that this is an excellent battleship."
This was the idea of all the negotiators present, and even the negotiators of the Huff Empire had to admit that they were very advanced.
The first person to ask questions was not Mian Kang, nor He Fuduo, but a small man who was not good-looking, Zhang Shusheng looked at his information, an official of the Hafu Empire, similar to the chief officer of the military council, the rank was not low, but it was obviously He Fuduo's person.
"I want to ask your country a question, if the information you provided is consistent, judging from the video, this Tianlong-class battleship can be said to be very good, even if it is placed in a third-level civilization, it is also an elite battleship, your country is just a first-level civilization, how can it produce such an advanced battleship?"
The little man Taylor asked.
For Mrs. Ha's troubles, the Chinese side was also mentally prepared in advance, and Wei Sancai directly opened fire.
"We have an old saying in China, heroes don't ask where they come from, the deeper the mountains and the more they are, the more likely they are to hide great people. Your country has been under the friendship of the Nok Business Alliance for a long time, and I am afraid that it will be a blind eye. ”
Wei Sancai was not polite, anyway, the Hafu Empire begged for himself, and said directly in Chinese, anyway, the other party heard the universal language of the universe.
His counterattack made the people of the Haff Empire slightly stunned, and Taylor immediately blushed slightly, and argued, "I mean, with your country's scientific and technological strength, can you provide an order of up to dozens of ships at a time?"
What we need is not to supply these battleships within a year or ten years, but to start deliveries within two cosmic months. ”
Wei Sancai did not back down, and directly provided a picture, on the huge virtual picture, dozens of Tianlong-class battleships were arranged neatly, not to mention eighty, more than one hundred.
This is to shoot the Orion's batch of goods into it.
"As long as we receive payment, we can ship the goods at any time."
Hefodo winked at the little man, who obediently shut up.
"We recognize the surname of your country's Tenryu-class battleship, and we also believe that with your country's reputation, we will conscientiously fulfill the contract, and in view of the current market situation of battleships, we can start to discuss a suitable price."
He Fudo thought that there was no need to go around the negotiations, his side really needed these battleships, and he wanted to get the deal done by his own means.
"As a second-level civilization, we have a large number of advanced technology and high-tech products, and your country, as a first-level civilization, lacks these things.
Moreover, your country lacks a powerful ally, and we can provide asylum to your country as an ally in the future, provided that certain conditions are met. ”
He Fuduo made a start, he wanted to see what price the Chinese wanted, but he first threw out the two points of equivalent exchange and alliance.
Judging by his common sense, first-class civilizations tend to value both things very much.
One is science and technology and high-tech products, and the other is an ally of advanced civilizations.
In his cognition, often high-level civilizations throw these two things, low-level civilizations are like dogs that smell the smell, and he has also checked the relevant intelligence of the Chinese, and they are indeed a first-level civilization in addition to this battleship.
Therefore, he had the idea of taking advantage from the beginning.
No one on the Chinese side replied for a while, and Zhang Shusheng remained silent, but wanted to see what he was going to make funny.
He motioned for another negotiator to speak.
"Our Haff Empire is an important ally of the Nok Business Alliance, and has always received unlimited assistance from the Business Alliance from science and technology to military, and if your country wants to quickly improve its scientific and technological strength and integrate into the Pan-Human Alliance family faster, now is a great opportunity to ......."
Zhang Shusheng listened to the little white-faced negotiation opponent chattering there, as if the Huff Empire was not here to ask China this time, but to provide China with a broad road to be a dog, he felt unhappy for a while, he glanced at Wei Sancai, and the latter immediately counterattacked.
"Hehe, we have seen the strength of the Huff Empire, and we are happy to sell these battleships to your country at a reasonable price to solve the great threat of the Ranks.
However, His Majesty the Emperor also made a request to us, this transaction must be settled by cash payment in Cosmic Coins, and we don't recognize any other messy things! ”
Wei Sancai said in a cold tone, the iron mask is selfless, and he doesn't give the other party a chance to talk nonsense at all.
The progress of the negotiation was suddenly paused, and the Huff Empire quickly proposed an adjournment, and Zhang Shusheng readily agreed to adjourn the meeting for 30 minutes.
"Humph! These Chinese are really frogs at the bottom of the well, too short-sighted, only seeing that little money, but losing the opportunity to develop science and technology and obtain high-tech products. ”
The people of the Haff Empire were a little angry, and the Chinese categorically rejected the two negotiation proposals of "equivalent trade" and "alliance deal", and instead emphasized that it must be settled in cosmic currency.
You know, when Hefudo patted his chest in front of Huff IX, these two points were told as the main story.
Mian Kang sneered at this kind of behavior on the side, others he didn't understand, judging from Hughes's evaluation of that Prince Zhang, he was definitely an old and cunning person, and it was impossible to accept any equivalent transactions and alliance transactions.
What is an Equivalent Transaction? A very backward technology can be described as high-tech and can be counted as sky-high.
What is an alliance deal? When it's okay, everyone is an ally, and at the critical moment, the six relatives don't recognize it, and even the Nok Business Alliance can abandon the Haff Empire, let alone a first-level civilization like the Chinese.
Sure enough, the Chinese flatly rejected the two foolish suggestions and offered them an offer.
"Since they want to make a offer, we will quote and quote to them according to the market of the third-level civilization."
He Fuduo gritted his teeth and said, in his opinion, this was already the biggest concession to this small country that was not worth mentioning. He didn't know that it didn't matter if he just hit his head against the wall and caused a bag, and then he would keep hitting the wall, the fundamental reason was that he didn't have the right mentality.
