Airbus (Huaguo) headquarters.

"Mr. Chen, good news, good news." In the office of the president of Airbus Greater China, Chen Juming's assistant reported excitedly: "Just now, Tianqing Technology Co., Ltd. has submitted to our company the purchase intention of 12 A380 aircraft. ”

"What? Tianqing company wants to purchase 12 A380s? Chen Juming sat up from the boss's chair in shock.

"That's right! 12 A380s!! ”

The French company Airbus' jumbo class was also a sensation, with the A380 first delivered to commercial use in 2007 and has attracted attention since its launch as a challenge to the Boeing 747.

For Airbus, the ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, and as a result, the sales of the A380 are less than a fraction of that of Boeing, and it has been confirmed that it will be discontinued in 2021.

Chen Juming's assistant added: "Mr. Chen, Tianqing's request is to complete the delivery within two years, and at least two within this year, and at the same time require the internal cabin of the aircraft to be modified for civil air transportation. ”

"No problem, we don't care what the customer does, what we have to do is meet the customer's requirements. You report the news to the parent company as soon as possible, and prepare a business trip for me immediately, and go to the headquarters of Tianqing Company immediately. Chen Juming was overjoyed, and by the way, he dissed a round of Boeing, and said: "Boeing juniors must be angry to death if you want to know, haha." ”

Who made this moment of urgency, North America is "sanctioning" Tianqing Company, otherwise this order is likely to be won by Boeing.

The price of one A380 aircraft is as high as 3 billion, and the contract for 12 A380 is a super large order of RMB36 billion.

Tianqing Technology spent 36 billion yuan at one time to buy 12 A380 planes directly, not for private planes, but to change some of the cabin into civilian long-range transport aircraft, the purpose is to continue to air transport the caryne nanomaterials refined from the Katanga Plateau back to China.

Shipping is undoubtedly the best, a freighter is a hundred thousand tons of carrying capacity, Gu Cheng does not consider this in a short period of time.

Because the natural carbonylene mine is located in the Katanga Plateau, in the interior of Africa, and there is no infrastructure at all, the ideal unloading point is undoubtedly the largest port on the east coast of Tanzania.

The country still has a good relationship with the flower growers, and in the future it will definitely be unloaded at the port of Daresslam City on the east coast of the country, which is currently the largest port on the east coast of the whole of Africa.

If these problems are acceptable, then the distance from the Katanga Plateau to Resaslam by land transportation directly made Gu Cheng give up the early sea transportation and directly switch to air transportation.

If you choose to go by sea, first of all, there are two routes for this section of land transportation, one is to walk 1,000 kilometers north in Ganghuajin, and then pass through Rwanda and Burundi and then enter Tanzania, a distance of more than 2,700 kilometers, because it is necessary to bypass the Great Rift Valley.

The other route goes south to Zambia, taking the Tazan Railway to the Tassanian city of Daresaslam to unload goods, this railway is still built by the Chinese in the seventies of the last century for the Tassanians, the problem is that the freight capacity of this railway is average.

One point that cannot be ignored by land is that material is very important, which means that a large number of escort forces must be sent to provide security, otherwise the Europeans and Americans will teach you to be a man every minute behind their backs, teach you what it means to cut off your beard, or blow up the railroad for you, and don't look at what place it is, it is the African land where mercenaries are in charge, turmoil is rampant, and diseases are rampant.

Simply fly away and engage in 12 large planes for continuous air transportation, which is equivalent to spending money to eliminate disasters, and then there will be another 12 planes, build the airport a little bigger, and build the leased site there into a defensive railway, saving a lot of trouble.

As for the future, I'll talk about that later.

……

A week has passed, and the parent company of Airbus officially announced that it has signed a large contract with Tianqing Technology Co., Ltd. for 12 A380 passenger aircraft, which made headlines in the French news for a while.

It's a deal worth more than $5 billion, and the French couldn't be happier.

At present, the only companies in the world that can provide large civil aircraft are the French Airbus, the American Boeing, and China's own C919, but the C1919 is still in the research and development stage and has just been successfully tested.

If it weren't for the "entity list" in North America, even if Boeing has made a lot of negative news recently, Tianqing will most likely purchase Boeing aircraft.

The reason why Europe can accept the development of the communication business market there, in addition to its own business technology level leading the world, is that China's domestic communication operators have also purchased the communication services of Europeans, which is the trade balance policy.

But the U.S. imperialist is now frantically suppressing domestic technology companies, so the trade balance is P!

Therefore, Boeing learned that Airbus and Tianqing had negotiated a super deal of more than $5 billion in just one week, and the French took the order without any pressure, and Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenberg was almost angry when he heard the news.

But there was nothing to be done, so I had to turn around and spray a wave of anger from the North American authorities.

……

Another month and a half passed.

On the east coast of Tassania, three medium-sized cargo ships sailed into the port where the city of Dares Salaam was located, and the three Chinese merchant ships arrived here from the mainland, escorted by a warship along the way.

"Are all the personnel here?"

Zhuo Bin stood on the deck of the first cargo ship to call at the port and looked out into the distance, he was wearing a set of Tianqing International's customized clothes, rolling up his sleeves and wearing sunglasses.

"Commander, look! Eleven o'clock. The accompanying deputy suddenly pointed to the left front.

When I entered the port mooring, groups of people got off the car, all yellow-skinned, wearing the customized uniforms of Tianqing International Security Company.

Visually there were nearly more than 800 people, Zhuo Bin saw this and quickly left the deck and went ashore.

These more than 800 people had already arrived in Tassania by plane a week ago, and the relationship between this country and the flower growers was very good.

When Zhuo Bin came to land, more than 800 Tianqing International's security personnel were gathering in formation, and there were five or six hundred people on the three cargo ships who were also assembling one after another.

At this time, two black men walked towards Zhuo Bin, one of them was wearing a military uniform, and the other was wearing a suit and leather suit.

The deputies who followed Zhuo Bin immediately introduced each other: "Commander, this is Kambala, a high-ranking official of the Tajikistan side, and this is a lieutenant general of the Tajikistan side, Braham." ”

Kerbal communicated in English: "Welcome, friends from the Eastern world, welcome to Tassania. ”

The two sides shook hands politely, and Kerbal said warmly: "My friend, if you need our help, please feel free to say." ”

At this time, Braham spoke a word in the local language, and Kerbal said again: "Do you need our escort?" ”

The accompanying deputy translated this passage to Zhuo Bin, who shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kind reception to our employees, and we can solve it ourselves." ”

What are you kidding, and you don't look at what you bring, this force is enough to walk sideways on the land of Africa, who is escorting whom?

The accompanying deputy translated Zhuo Bin's words, and the two Tassanians nodded, talked a few words, and then parted.

Zhuo Bin turned to his deputy and said, "Inform me, all the equipment will be unloaded, repaired for a morning, and ready to go to the station!" ”

"Yes!"
