Section 472 - Asking for a sky-high price
In the afternoon of the next day, when Lin Mo followed Chen Haiqing to the exhibitor exhibition area of Le Bourget Airport, he was startled by the black pressure outside the National Defense Star booth.
What's going on, do the old hairymen want to grab the booth or what?
It's not good!
Chen Haiqing couldn't help but glance at Lin Mo, this guy didn't get into trouble again, but he didn't see that these old Russian hairmen looked like they were coming to denounce with great momentum, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Hui came out of one of them, a white-haired old man who was smiling at him, and he was familiar with it, it was Sergei, a senior engineer of Sukhoi Company. Sulotov, holding his marching backpack in his hand.
"Hey! Chinese boy, I sent you your stuff. ”
"Engineer Sulotov, I'm really sorry for you."
Lin Mo took the marching backpack with a smile, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, although it is not valuable, but these military foods are also the money of Chinese taxpayers.
"This, this, can we talk?"
Sergei. Engineer Sulotov's eyes flickered as he spoke, and he quietly reached out and gestured behind his back.
Other old Maozi took the initiative to come forward with a smile on their faces and took the initiative to call the staff of the National Defense Star, and also took out caviar, coffee, chocolate, matryoshka and other small gifts of Russian specialties to the Chinese side, which seemed to be extremely familiar, and they were completely old friends who had been friends for many years.
The staff of the Defense Star were somewhat flattered.
The other party is Sukhoi, a veteran Russian fighter designer and manufacturer, an old-timer in the world's aviation industry, and in China, it is the level of Shen Fei and Cheng Fei's bosses, and even higher than Shen Fei and Cheng Fei's status.
But suddenly they were so enthusiastic about the new aerospace company of Defense Star, and the staff of those Defense Star looked at a loss and didn't know what to do.
The weasel is attentive, either a traitor or a thief, Chen Haiqing, who saw it in his eyes, was unmoved, and thought in his heart, is he here to steal the secrets of the J-14? It's shameless, isn't it?
Thinking of this, Chen Haiqing glanced at the Chinese guards outside the field.
"Engineer Sulotov! If you have something to say, just say it. ”
The performance of the Russians also looks very clumsy in Lin Mo's eyes, after all, it is not comparable to the delicate and tortuous minds of the Chinese, even if the set is close, the way of the old Maozi is straightforward, there is no heart eye at all, even if you want to have a little heart eye, there is no concealment technology, it is still clear at a glance.
"This, this one does have something I want you to ask for help, but don't worry, the treatment is good, and it will not embarrass you, and it will not violate your rules."
Sergei. Sulotov's old face turned red, as if he had never done anything like this before, and his heart was full of uneasiness, and even his tone became a little stammering.
Except for fighter jets, there are other areas that he is not very good at.
As a lobbyist, Sergey. Sulotov is indeed not the best person, but Sukhoi can't find a more suitable candidate than him, who makes the whole Sukhoi only he is the most familiar with Lin Mo, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, at least he can open his mouth.
"Help?" Lin Mo scratched his head, although he was half a peer with the other party, he was in different departments and departments, not in the same country.
As a military officer, in what ways can you help the other party without breaking the rules?
Lin Mo couldn't imagine it.
Chen Haiqing on the side pricked up his ears and expressed great concern, Lin Mo is the killer weapon at the bottom of the national defense star pressure box, so don't have any accidents.
Now that talent is hard to find, it is already a great luck to recruit a top pilot like Lin Mo to join, if you let Lao Maozi make any changes, the national defense star is not collectively crazy?
"Then I'll just say it, you have made our Sukhoi miserable, when the transition landing, the 'Mayflower' just said to let you do a simple maneuver casually, how do you do such a difficult maneuver, this is miserable for us, people think that all our Sukhoi pilots will maneuver like this, if we buy our fighter jets and ask for this level of tactical maneuver, what can we Sukhoi do?"
I haven't said anything about letting Lin Mo help, Sergey. Sulotov couldn't help but pour out the bitter water that he was holding back his belly.
Miserably killed Sukhoi?
Chen Haiqing looked at Lin Mo strangely, this guy took someone else's plane to Paris, how could he hurt people again, this guy's ability to harm people is too good, let the people of Sukhoi come to beg for mercy, why didn't he see that Lin Mo had such ability when he was in the national defense star before.
It is indeed miserable, a false hat Sukhoi can never be shaken off, and a stepping stone to become a Chinese has no way to run.
I'm afraid of comparing goods, so I have to throw it away.
Who let the Chinese also push out the J-11, not only Sukhoi, but even Russia is counting on the Su-27, the export-oriented main fighter to replace the MiG-21, to earn them more votes.
"Is it hard?"
Lin Mo tilted his head, with an innocent expression, he was just playing it temporarily, and he didn't feel that it was a special maneuver.
His expression made Sergey. Sulotov looked straight at it, completely anticipating this situation, did this guy really not take that miraculous maneuver seriously, or was he deliberately pretending?
But after looking up and down for a long time, Sergey. Sulotov didn't find any trace of Lin Mo's pretense, it didn't seem to be a fake at all, he couldn't help but sigh in disappointment, and explained the tasks and arrangements given to him by Sukhoi's company.
"I hope you can make a cameo appearance as our Sukhoi pilot at this exhibition, the remuneration is negotiable, and the fighter jets for the air show are up to you."
Sergei. As soon as Sulotov's words came out, they immediately shocked Chen Haiqing and the high-level personnel of the National Defense Star who participated in the exhibition.
As a fighter test pilot and a pilot of the air show team, all of them are the best pilots on the front line.
The words of official Sukhoi are intriguing.
When did the Russians reach such an extent of embarrassment, you must know that many Chinese pilots have been to Russia and Russia's predecessor, the Soviet Union, for further study.
After all, Sukhoi is a big manufacturer in the former Soviet Union, and the former Soviet Union, which has collapsed, was once capable of confronting the United States.
Even if Sukhoi didn't bring their own most advanced fighter jets, some of the models they put in the exhibition area were still very advanced, and some of them were still being imitated and learned from China.
The old-timers in the aviation industry, known as evergreen, always have something commendable.
The Russian side is willing to let Chinese pilots access to the fighter jets and even flight control, even the Su-47 "Golden Eagle" does not hesitate to include it, and allows Chinese pilots of a very high rank.
The layman looks at the liveliness, the inner door looks at the doorway, and Sukhoi's move to lure the wolf into the house is tantamount to putting the secret of the country's sharp weapon in front of the Chinese.
It is up to the Chinese pilots themselves to master how much they can master, but what is certain is that the Chinese pilots who specialize in aircraft design and flight control will certainly be able to tap into many advanced technologies.
Chinese have always been very smart, and they may sometimes take detours, but with a little mention, they can catch up with ten times or a hundred times the speed.
Normally, no country would allow such an opportunity, not even from a distance.
To a certain extent, this is already the equivalent of a semi-public technical leak that turns a blind eye.
For the order of the world's largest aerospace exhibition every two years, as well as future orders, the Russian side paid a lot of price, which made the high-level leaders who arrived at the scene of the defense star feel hot, Sukhoi's technical strength is not inferior to Shen Fei and Cheng Fei, and the technology library of Chinese aircraft manufacturers has more or less the shadow of Russia and the former Soviet Union.
"I don't agree, the price of this exchange is not enough to exchange our best pilots."
Chen Haiqing walked up to Lin Mo and expressed that he did not approve of Sukhoi's plan. Engineer Sulotov's face froze, and the other senior directors of Defense Star also showed incomprehensible expressions.
They are national defense stars, not Shen Fei, nor Cheng Fei, but an aerospace manufacturer supported by the old-timers in China, and they have not even completed the necessary full set of technology accumulation and demonstration.
Sukhoi's conditions are not only full of temptation for new manufacturers like Defense Star, even Shen Fei and Cheng Fei may not be willing to miss such an opportunity, and all they have to pay is to lend their pilots, there is no loss at all, and it will not even affect their flight demonstration, Lin Mo has already shown very good cross-aircraft control ability.
If it was replaced by other factories in the country, they didn't cry and shout to hug Sukhoi's thighs, and they couldn't use anything casually leaking from their fingers.
"What conditions do you want to agree to lend him to us pilots?"
Sergei. Sulotov's tone was slightly angry, this young man who came out seemed to be not good, he was not good at negotiating, he directly pulled out the hole cards, but in exchange for the other party's disdain.
For himself, this is already a very favorable condition, not only can he have a good labor fee, but also have the opportunity to get a glimpse of Sukhoi's technology, which is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if it is Lockheed. Martin, companies like Dassault won't let it go.
For example, Hindustan Aeronautics, which is a production force that is more powerful than the defense star, would probably be willing to even do it if it knew that Sukhoi had set such conditions.
