Two days later, in a five-star hotel in a certain Middle East country, Wang Ming personally led his negotiation team to sit quietly in the reception room, waiting for their biggest customer to arrive.

On his right-hand side, a young man who looked a little immature, but was in fact a battle-hardened man, asked:

"Mr. Wang, can the strategy be finalized this time? Do you want to be an open or a dark one? ”

Hearing his question, Wang Ming's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

There are two sets of plans, and there have been many rehearsals, but in fact, he has not been able to make a final decision on which one to use.

The so-called Ming Pao is to negotiate and quote one by one in strict accordance with the quotation and product catalog, which is suitable for some customers with mature business rules and equal strength.

Covert reporting, on the other hand, refers to not setting a clear BOQ, and delineating the scope of product transactions based on the customer's wishes and customers' cognition.

As a simple example, a clear newspaper may disassemble an aircraft into multiple catalogs such as aircraft, flight control system services, maintenance services, weapons, spare parts, etc., but the secret newspaper will only say:

"I want a plane, the kind with weapons."

In response to such a demand, the seller can quote and deliver as a whole, and the buyer does not look at the entry, but only looks at the final effect.

It can also be said that this is a "turnkey" type of transaction.

Obviously, this way of trading has more room for maneuver, and if the business is done well, the profit will be much higher than that of Ming Pao.

----But the problem is that this method can only deceive the wrongdoers who don't know how to do it.

The times have developed to the present, and the former local money has also grown.

In the past, there was only money in this land except for camels, and the offer of 100 million yuan could pay 100 million US dollars, but now, with the continuous development of the country's economy, the degree of specialization of relevant departments is also increasing.

Ordinary equipment can't fool them anymore.

But what about third-generation aircraft?

Although it is only a pseudo-third-generation aircraft transformed from a second-generation aircraft, you must know that the Tornado fighter in service in Saudi Arabia was purchased from Britain in the 80s of the last century!

Even compared to the J-8 II, the combat effectiveness is not much stronger, and compared to the J-8 III, it is far inferior.

Speaking of which, in fact, the significance of Saudi Arabia's introduction of J-8 now is not far from the significance of introducing Vostok-3 back then?

After all, these two pieces of equipment are actually powerful enough to compare the surrounding countries.

Thinking of this, Wang Ming opened his mouth and said:

"Let's talk about it according to the secret report first, and if they want a catalog, we'll give it to them then!"

"That's right, Xiao Wu, while the time hasn't come yet, you hurry up and buy a bouquet of flowers first, I just received the news, this time Hatim's wife will come to the hotel with him and give him the flowers in a while!"

"Understood, I'll go right away."

Wu Yihao, who was called Xiao Wu, hurriedly went downstairs, although he had already dominated the Middle East for many years and climbed to the position of the person in charge of the region, but in front of Wang Ming, he was still as well-behaved as a little brother.

A month ago, he heard the rumor that the big leader would personally come to lead the team, but he never believed it.

Isn't it just to sell a J-8? Do you still need Wang Ming to make a move?

According to the initial model of the J-8 II model, the cost is about 22 million, even if one is sold for 40 million, it is actually still a small order.

But soon, he received a top-secret level of parameter documentation.

All-new engine.

New radar system.

New body configurations.

Stronger fighting ability, wider altitude and speed adaptability, and greater range due to weight loss......

Is this still the J-8 I know?

No wonder Wang Ming rushed over in person......

If this list can be negotiated, it will not be at the level of tens of millions.

There is no suspense about the single-machine billion, but I don't know if I can change the currency behind 100 million from RMB to USD......

Thinking of this, Wu Yihao quickened his pace, and when he bought flowers and returned to the reception room, Saudi Arabia's negotiator Hatim also happened to arrive on his front and back feet.

Wu Yihao first gave the flowers to Hatim's wife, and then guided her and the other entourages to another lounge to wait---- today is responsible for accompanying these entourage.

And the real negotiations have already started between Lin Yongming and Hatim at this time......

……

"Hatim, long time no see."

"Ming, we met again in July, which is really not a long time."

Hatim had a smile on his face, no matter whether the business could be negotiated or not, every time he dealt with the Huaxia people, he was happy both physically and mentally, because the other party would always arrange himself and his family very comfortably.

"Yes, I remember---- that time you rejected our tank and chose something from the Germans, how is it, is it still good?"

"I have to say, ---- Ming, who is really good, you also know that after the Iraq incident, the reputation of your tanks has fallen to the bottom."

"I don't think anyone will be buying your tanks anymore, at least not anytime soon."

"You don't blame me, do you?"

Wang Ming smiled and replied:

"Even if it's just because of our personal relationship, I won't be angry with you."

"What's more, what you say makes a lot of sense."

"Our tanks are really too weak---- of course, I mean in terms of responding to air strikes."

"However, in this regard, no tank will be strong, right?"

Hatim nodded approvingly.

"That's it, and that's why we're able to sit here now. But, Ming, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. ”

"Before you, Dassault France had already approached us, and they submitted a proposal to us for the Mirage 2000-5, and we were very satisfied."

"If there are no accidents, we should choose this aircraft as the main air superiority fighter for the next 15 years or so, replacing the current Tornado."

Hearing this, Wang Ming sighed.

"Hatim, are you serious? With a light fighter as the main force, do you think it can have any other role than window dressing? ”

Hatim shook his head and replied:

"It's the best and most cost-effective option."

After a pause, he continued to ask rhetorically:

"Or else? What should we buy if we don't choose the Mirage 2000? ”

"F-15? It's close to $150 million a plane, and we can't afford it. Or gusts? Gripen? They don't sell at all. ”

"You can't say we're going to buy the brilliance, right? We all know it's industrial waste. ”

"Or ...... Are you going to sell us the J-10 that has just flown off? Ming, my friend, if that's the case, then I will definitely refuse Dassault for your sake! ”

Hatim had a teasing smile on his face, he knew that Wang Ming's purpose for coming this time was not to sell Jianten, that was impossible.

But what exactly are they selling?

Could it be the Thunder that cooperates with Pakistan?

Can be a second-generation aircraft...... You don't need Wang Ming to come over in person, right?

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and asked:

"Okay, my friend, stop 'selling to me', tell me, this time, what do you want to sell me?"

"J-8."

Wang Ming replied calmly.

"What? J-8? Ming, are you kidding me? ”

"I'm not kidding."

Looking at Wang Ming's expression, Hatim's expression changed from shock to doubt.

What the?

Came all the way to say this?

He suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and patiently explained:

"Ming, I know that the friendship between the two of us is indestructible, and similarly, the friendship between our two countries is extremely deep."

"But that doesn't mean we're going to blindly support you."

"You have to know that the maximum range of the Mirage 2000 reaches 3300 kilometers, the combat radius is 1200 kilometers, and the speed reaches 2.2MH."

"And what about your J-8? , the combat radius is only 800 km, and the maximum range is even only 1800 km......"

"1300 km."

"Well, 1300 kilometers---- huh?? Why? Isn't it 1800 km? ”

Hatim asked, surprised.

"I'm talking about the combat radius."

"We did some ...... with it A small upgrade. ”

A mysterious smile appeared on Wang Ming's face, and then he continued:

"Hatim, believe me, the first time you see it, all your doubts will disappear......"
