Although the superiors said that Lin Yongming would be notified of the specific decision the next day, in fact, by the time he finally received the confidential documents, a full week had passed.

During this week, countless people, including Lin Yongming, were in extreme suffering.

They are worried that the final decision is not what they expected, and they are also worried about what they will do to live up to the trust if they do get the desired result.

Therefore, under such high pressure, Chen Nian's life is not easy.

----Of course, no one forced him to do anything, but the information transmitted from Chen Guo and Lei Gang also made him realize the urgency of the problem.

It is necessary to produce results as soon as possible.

Otherwise, in this "either/or" option, a small chip can upset the balance and lead to the worst possible result.

So, during the week, he drastically shortened the time he spent studying, and spent most of his time drawing drawings, except for the small lessons every day.

The day before the decision was issued, he finally finished drawing all the drawings.

And this drawing became the last bargaining chip to determine the direction of the tilt of the scale.......

.......

In the imperial capital, Wang Ming sat opposite Marokov and said calmly:

"Marokov, I have always considered you our friend, but judging by the current situation, it seems that you have not treated us in the same way."

"I can't feel your sincerity."

"Perhaps, the previous agreement needs to be modified somewhat."

Hearing his words, Marokov thought that this was just a normal technique used to pull and play games in negotiations, so he just changed to a gentle smile and replied:

"Ming, your words hurt my heart too much."

"If we didn't treat you as friends, how could we have handed over such a critical engine to you in this matter?"

"As you know, the AL-31FN is still one of our main engines at the moment, and we are actually facing a lot of risks when we make such an export decision."

Wang Ming shook his head slightly and asked rhetorically:

"Isn't the premium we paid enough to cover your risk?"

"In fact, you know very well in your own heart that the once powerful red empire is no longer there, and you are inevitably falling into decline."

"If we hadn't taken over, these technologies, which were obviously outdated, would have become completely wasted."

"Outdated? I won't comment on other technologies for the time being, but you say that the AL-31FN is outdated, isn't that a bit too much? ”

Marokov's expression was slightly displeased, and he looked directly at Wang Ming with a sharp gaze.

Are you kidding?

The Americans can say that the AL-31FN is outdated, the Europeans can say it, even the ukrin can say it, but only the Chinese, you can't say it.

Because you don't!

To evaluate something, you don't have to be able to make something stronger, but at least you have to understand how it works, right?

Only by understanding the principle, knowing its flaws and strengths, can you evaluate it when it is strong and weak.

Otherwise, when you make an evaluation, is it based on your own imagination?

Now Huaxia's understanding of the AL-31FN is completely superficial, and the real core design and technology are only known but not the reason.

Who are you to rate this engine?

You should not say that "the AL-31FN is outdated", but that "the AL-31FN is not advanced enough, but it is still strong".

Is this the attitude that a subordinate should have?

In this transaction, Huaxia is the inferior!

Many thoughts flashed through Marokov's mind, but Wang Ming, who was on the other side, was not affected by him after his death, but shook his head indifferently and said:

"That's not too much, what I'm saying is the truth."

"Marokov, I don't want to talk nonsense with you, I just want to tell you one thing: we have mastered the major design flaws of the AL-31FN."

"This flaw may not be so serious, but if we use this engine on the J-10 as planned, the difference in stability will have fatal consequences."

"You've always known that, right?"

"But you didn't say a word from beginning to end, do you think that's a sincere attitude?"

Marokov was shocked, and when Wang Ming mentioned the "Jian-10", he was keenly aware that the other party might have really discovered the problem.

But he couldn't just throw in the towel---- he wanted to gamble again.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

"IT IS TRUE THAT THE AL-31FN HAS PROBLEMS, BIG AND SMALL, BUT THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT UNACCEPTABLE, YOU KNOW, IT HAS ALSO BEEN SAFELY IN SERVICE WITH THE SU-27 FOR MANY YEARS."

"You don't have to tell me that the J-10's requirements for engines are ...... than those of the SU-27."

"Lubrication."

Wang Ming had gradually lost his patience, and he directly interrupted Marokov's tirade and threw his hole cards straight to the point.

"What?"

Marokov was subconsciously stunned.

"There is a major flaw in the design of the lubrication system of the AL-31FN, which may not be a big deal for the SU-27, but it is definitely fatal for a single-engine fighter like the J-10, isn't it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the conference room fell into an awkward silence.

Marokov looked at each other in disbelief, wondering for a moment how they had discovered this question.

Obviously, it has not been officially delivered, and the engines that had problems in the previous experiments have been recovered.

There was no reason for them to be able to see such tiny details, because they didn't have an engine to disassemble, and even if they had the data, they couldn't analyze it to that extent.

Could it be a leak?

But the question is, who did it?

It can't be a technical advisor by his side, he doesn't have a chance.

Domestic?

This export project is originally top secret, even if there are very few people who know about it, and all the personnel who can understand the key technology of AL-31FN are controlled, and at this point in time, the probability of leaking secrets is almost zero.

The most reasonable explanation can only be that these Chinese people really relied on barren data and a small number of clues to piece together the key to the problem.

If they really did it......

Then their real technical strength is definitely not what they presupposed.

Thinking of this, Marokov couldn't help frowning.

These rabbits are really well hidden.....

After a long silence for half a minute, Marokov finally sighed and spoke:

"Okay...... The AL-31FN's lubrication system did have a flaw, but it wasn't a major problem. ”

"In fact, our researchers are already working on improvements."

"Even if you don't bring it up, we will take the initiative to upgrade our technology in the future."

"Don't worry, we won't let you suffer."

"As for the price, I think we can discuss it again......"

"There is no need for this, and we will no longer purchase new AL-31FN engines except for the existing contracts."

Wang Ming shook his head decisively.

"We don't need this engine anymore, we'll use our own engine."

"What?"

Marokov was shocked.

"Your own engine? That WS-10? Or WS-10A? Ming, what are you kidding? ”

"The engine...... Okay, maybe I shouldn't denigrate it to my face, but you also know that even if it is made, it is still far from a standard that is actually usable. ”

"Even if I give you another ten years, it may not be able to achieve the performance of the AL-31FN."

"The accumulation of technology does not happen overnight, if you have to take risks...... Ming, I can't even say good luck to you. ”

"You're not going to be lucky."

"Because of you, it's really not good yet."

Hearing his words, Wang Ming shook his head and replied:

"The decision is irreversible."

"We Chinese people are sometimes adventurous."

"And we win almost every time."
