With the old subordinates next week, Qi Yiming and the Thai military's representative of military procurement at the Jingshi Guibao Hotel Chawari? Yongchaiyu held talks. Guibao Hotel is one of Jacqueline's key industries in China, and in just two years, the executive beauty has opened eight branches in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Qingdao, Nanjing, Hangzhou and Hong Kong, plus two in San Francisco and New York, all of which have achieved five-star standards. As a newcomer to the industry, even if there are many preferential conditions for attracting investment in China, Jacqueline's own skills are also worthy of recognition.

Before meeting Yongchaiyu, Zhou Yutong gave Qi Yiming some background introductions in advance: "This Yongchaiyu is a capable person, now with the rank of general, commander-in-chief of the Thai army, and is considered to be the commander-in-chief of the Thai armed forces in the future." He not only led the troops, but also, like most of the generals in Thailand, was also engaged in politics and economics, and he led the army to start rural development projects, which are said to have achieved some success. ”

Similar to the PLA not long ago, the Thai army is also in business, not that the country cannot afford to support them, but the Thai army does not have such a high consciousness, and it is not happy to make money by relying on guns and their military status. Most of Thailand's politicians are military-born, and the military government has been in charge of the military until the 21st century, when the military slowly fades out of mainstream politics, but it still plays an important role. For example, in 2013, the Thai political ****, the Red Shirts and the Yellow Shirts faced off against Bangkok, hoping to gain the support of the military and take each other down.

Zhou Yutong said to Qi Yiming again: "This time, the Thais hurriedly came to Beijing to order such a large number of weapons, and there is another important factor, after the Southern Liberation drove the Malaysians to Kelantan and Terengganu, there are also some Malays who poured into Hat Yai, Pattani and Tao Gongfu. Many people also carried weapons, which caused great trouble to the local law and order, and for most of the past six months, the Thai military has repeatedly mobilized troops and horses to fight against the Malay forces in these areas. Therefore, the Thai military is pinning its hopes on obtaining the weapons that we have obtained against the Malaysian army and protecting its southern lands. ”

Knowing the urgency of Thailand's hope for weapons, Qi Yiming became more calm. After the Chinese delegates entered the conference room, the Thai military personnel appeared to be very affectionate, which made people feel that there was flattery and flattery.

At least half of these Thai government officials and military generals are of Chinese descent, and the army general Yongchai Yu in charge is also of mixed Chinese, Laotian, and Thai descent.

Yongchaiyu said: "We have seriously studied and considered the offer given by the Chinese side, and we think that it is still very fair, but there is another problem, our country hopes to get these weapons as soon as possible, and train them to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, please ask whether the Chinese side can make a commitment in this regard." ”

Even if it is bigger now, Qi Yiming has always adhered to the principle of not being overbearing and pretending to be coercive, playing to the level of the United States and the Soviet Union, he likes to force others to take advantage of himself at every turn, and the service attitude is very poor, whether you like it or not, Qi Yiming thinks it is very undesirable. Doing business is originally a harmonious and wealth-making business, and it is not a complete seller's market, and it is easy to backfire by pretending to be excessive.

Among the large number of weapons that Thailand hopes to buy, the S20 submarine is the most expensive, with a unit price of 300 million US dollars, and the purchase of two is 600 million, and Thailand is still very hesitant to spend this money. The second is the four F20 frigates, the price is also expensive, 100 million each, the total price is 400 million, but the Chinese military industry is under the supervision of Qi Yiming, the after-sales system is good, so compared with European and American products to save a lot of hidden costs.

The total price of 500 downgraded MIFVs is 500 million US dollars, and these 500 armored vehicles are also equipped with some similar combinations of modules such as command systems, radar air defense, assault guns, and field first aid, so the average unit price of 1 million US dollars is indeed not expensive.

The unit price of 60 MBT-2000T tanks is $1.6 million, which is quite cheap among the world's largest tanks of this class. The reason is that it is not a complete version of the 2000 type tank, reducing weight and canceling some advanced equipment, so that its price is greatly reduced, the full version of the 2000 type tank weighs about the same as the 99 type, all in more than 50 tons and only 60 tons, night vision devices and hunting fire control are also strong, the standard price is 2.2 million US dollars, and a large number of orders are estimated to be discounted to about 2 million.

In contrast, the quasi-third-generation tank MBT-1000 is much cheaper, and the price of $80-1 million is affordable in many countries like Pakistan.

The 60 WM-80 rocket launchers are not just 60 combat vehicles, the whole system also includes 50 transport and loading vehicles, 6 10-ton trucks, 4 technical maintenance vehicles, 4 command vehicles, and 6,400 rockets, with a total contract value of 1. $200 million.

200 sets of Ballista-6 air defense systems at $320,000 each for a total price of $64 million.

Qi Yiming felt that in addition to the navy's equipment being sold very blackly, the other few compared with similar products from other countries were definitely conscience prices.

"In terms of production speed, the Navy may have a relatively big trouble, from a ship to lay the keel, launch, outfitting, and then sea trials, it will take at least three years, our shipyard can start construction at the same time, but the fastest you can see the ship will be in early 1990. In addition, the submarine may be slightly faster, but it will not be much faster. If you need to do it faster, I'm afraid you'll have to pay a rush fee. ”

Yongchai Yu hurriedly said: "We understand that the production speed of naval equipment cannot be fast, and if we can get four frigates in the early 90s, we are already very satisfied." As for the AIP advanced submarines, they are too expensive, and we need to discuss them further, so we will not list them in the contract for the time being. ”

Qi Yiming is not surprised by this, let a country like Thailand buy AIP submarines, it is really unaffordable, if they remove the AIP system, at least it can be cheaper to six folds, 1. Although 800 million is still a little expensive, it is definitely worth the money.

"The armament of the army is easier, 500 MIFV tanks, we can complete all shipments within a year, the first batch can deliver 100 tanks within three months after the order is signed, and then every three months can deliver 100-150 tanks until all deliveries are completed. Of course, such a production speed will affect our domestic manufacturing capacity, so we still have to add a sum of money, 20,000 US dollars per car, then the total contract needs to add another 10 million US dollars. Qi Yiming called out 10 million US dollars, which is not unfounded, these orders for external sales, he rarely leaves them to the base to do, but let the military industrial enterprises get their hands on it personally. Although it is basically a fool to say that it occupies the country's production capacity, because more than 95 percent of the PLA's equipment comes from the base, and the military industrial enterprises do not occupy much of it.

If the tank factory on the base is allowed to produce, 500 multi-purpose infantry vehicles can be completed in almost a week, and there is no need to delay for 1 year. shouted out one year, Qi Yiming also roughly measured the manufacturing capacity of military industrial groups such as North Industries.

It is undoubtedly best for the Thai military representatives to complete the full delivery within a year, but the additional $10 million is a bit painful for them, but it is worth it if they can be invested as soon as possible to deal with the Malays in the south who are looking for trouble. Thailand also has some American-made V-150, M113 and other armored vehicles, but basically they are all different from the multi-functional infantry vehicle generation, and the number is also insufficient at this time, and it is urgent to purchase a large number of new equipment.

Yongchaiyu made another request: "We have seen in the brochure of NORINCO that your country produces a kind of automatic rifle called CR2000, and we are very interested, and hope that your country can provide us with a batch as an evaluation, and if we are satisfied, we may make a large number of purchases, standardize, and require a certain amount of domestic production and assembly capacity." ”

Qi Yiming was stunned, he had been abroad for too long, and he didn't know what new things the military enterprises in his country had made, or Zhou Yutong handed him a booklet, and he suddenly realized.

What about the Combat-Rifle2000, this is clearly the FN2000 automatic rifle produced by FN Hurstad North America, this is a naked copycat!

However, the F2000 rifle has not yet been designed, so there is no problem in taking it as your own. The gun model, which was originally introduced at the 2001 Abu Dhabi International Defense Exhibition, appeared more than a decade ahead of schedule. It was created mainly to provide NATO-standard weapons to the 310 Blue Army Division of the PLA. After purchasing a batch, it has been distributed to the troops for use, and the evaluation is not bad.

The main reason is that its more sci-fi and compact shape makes many people who think the AK series is more rustic and the 95 series is more freaky give a thumbs up.

In addition to the CR2000, NORINCO also shamelessly plagiarized some other rifles introduced by famous Western companies after the new century. For example, the SCAR series rifles, which are also FN, are designed to be 5 this time. The native caliber of 8mm, it seems, is ambitious and intended to be used to satisfy a part of the voices dissatisfied with the 95-1.

In addition, they also launched the second improved 95-2 rifle of the Type 95, which has also made a lot of improvements to the 95-1, especially the problems such as the position of the fast and slow machine, serious smoke, serious copper hanging, and poor workmanship, all of which have been greatly improved. What surprised Qi Yiming the most was that perhaps it was a copycat of the idea of a Canadian company in later generations, and the 95-2 also modularized the handle, which could be disassembled, and then replaced with a guide rail that was easier to install a scope, which received a lot of praise.

I don't know how much money some light weapons have, naturally some people want them, Qi Yiming does not refuse to sell them, and believes that the North Industry Cottage FN2000 itself is aimed at the international market. Through the use of Thailand, it may be possible to promote this good gun to many countries.

After setting some additional costs, Qi Yiming made a package for all the above equipment, with a total price of 1.2 billion US dollars, which is weaker than a red gold tyrant like Saudi Arabia, but it can also make the national military-industrial complex a full stomach. Qi Yiming didn't pay much attention and dedication to this business, because at this time he had more nervousness about the upcoming ten 'three' big days.
