Two weeks later, Buenos Aires.

Wang Ming, general manager of Poly Technology, once again personally led the team to set off, but this time their purpose was not to "sell", but to exchange.

The advanced fighter jets and advanced ships that Argentina urgently needs at the moment in exchange for their abundant reserves of soybeans.

This was an extremely risky move, as the negotiation process was bound to involve an extremely sensitive topic:

Falklands.

After the war in the 80s, the island actually fell into British hands, and although the Argentine side protested and tried to negotiate every year, the result did not change.

In the hearts of all Argentines, this is a lingering painful memory, and the war that was completely crushed is also the greatest shame of their modern times.

Therefore, the attitude of their entire country towards this disputed archipelago is extremely clear:

Be sure to take it back, no matter when it is, no matter how it is used.

And Wang Ming also took advantage of this to win the opportunity to negotiate with Argentina.

In the office of the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, several representatives of the Argentine side with mysterious identities sat at the other end of the conference table, they looked at Wang Ming and his party with serious expressions, and spoke first:

"Before we start the meeting, we want to emphasize one point."

"This negotiation is a direct and pure commercial negotiation between two commercial companies, we represent Atanor Agrochemical Company, and you represent Poly Technology Defense Equipment and Service Company."

"Any agreement we reach will only represent the interests and attitudes of both companies."

"Do you understand that?"

Wang Ming nodded solemnly.

In fact, even if the other party doesn't say it, he himself will keep emphasizing this point in subsequent meetings.

Because, he doesn't want to get into any trouble at this time, especially not to bring any trouble to the already difficult country.

"You can rest assured, Mr. Lozano, that on this point we are both on the same page."

"That's good."

Lozano nodded and continued:

"So, now let's get straight to the point, we're short on time and there's no room for waste."

"Tell me, what's your offer?"

"Don't play those commercial tricks, give me the lowest price!"

Although Wang Ming had long expected the other party's attitude, he was still a little caught off guard by being so tough.

But after thinking about it, he understood:

The people sitting across from him weren't Athanor executives, they were......

Therefore, it is understandable that there is no experience in business negotiations.

In that case, let's go with their rhythm and talk straight to the point.

So, he spoke:

"40 J-8 III, 12 J-10. The J-8 III will be delivered within a month, and the J-10 will be delivered within two years. ”

"The J-8 III is equipped with the latest phased array radar, and the J-10 is equipped with a digital array radar."

"Digital array radar??"

Lozano's eyes widened in surprise and asked in disbelief:

"Are you sure you're talking about digital array radar? This technology is still at the verification stage, and as far as I know, even the Americans use only a small number of ground-based radar stations. ”

"What do you mean...... Is it an airborne radar? ”

Wang Ming nodded, replied with a smile:

"That's right, it's the airborne radar."

"Can you make it?"

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have made this offer to you."

"Are you willing to sell to us? I mean, it's one of the most advanced radar technologies in the world, and you guys don't have ...... Concerns about leaks? ”

The negotiation had just begun, and Lozano originally thought that his momentum would steadily suppress the other party, but he didn't expect that before he could talk a few words, the situation on the field was instantly reversed, and others just used one sentence to let themselves fall into a passive rhythm.

And I don't even have any chance to reverse this rhythm, because when the digital array radar technology is thrown as an offer, in fact, there is not much room for negotiation on my side.

Agree or disagree, just one sentence.

Seeing Lozano's expression, Wang Ming nodded and replied:

"I can tell you bluntly about the technical issues."

"The difficulty of digital array radar is not entirely in its design difficulty, theoretical difficulty, but more importantly, its manufacturing difficulty."

"The industrial base involved is extremely demanding, and neither gallium nitride nor IGBT controls can be replicated in a short period of time."

"To put it bluntly, even if you do reverse engineering with maximum efficiency, it will take at least 10 to 20 years to replicate a digital array radar."

"Our iteration is once a year."

After finishing speaking, Wang Ming deliberately fell silent, waiting for the other party's reaction.

In fact, the exchange of digital array radar for the materials they need is a strategy that has been established for a long time, and has been repeatedly demonstrated by many departments.

This strategy was finally adopted after it was determined that even if the initial version of the digital array radar was exported, it would not break its own technological generational advantage.

Of course, such an amazing offer, what Wang Ming wants to exchange for is not so simple.

Whether it can be negotiated or not depends on one's own performance.

But at least, this offer has given the other party enough shock, and the follow-up negotiations may be much smoother......

Sure enough, as Wang Ming expected, after listening to his explanation, the representative of Atanor on the opposite side first whispered for a while, and then said decisively:

"Mr. Wang Ming, your offer is very sincere and attractive enough."

"Well, then, we may be able to talk about your terms now."

"What do you want from us?"

"6 million tons of soybeans."

A hint of imperceptible joy flashed on Lozano's face, but before he could make it difficult, Wang Ming's next sentence made his "fake embarrassment" become "real embarrassment".

"There's also market access."

"COFCO's market access rights."

Hearing this, Lozano frowned tightly and asked in a stern voice:

"Mr. Wang Ming, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Market access? Do you know what this means? ”

"The grain market in our country is already extremely ...... Extremely vulnerable, Cargill's attack has bothered us, and now, you are arrogantly saying that you want our market access? ”

"Do you think that with just a few fighters, we can sell the whole country?"

Wang Ming shook his head, his expression still calm and gentle.

"Of course not, Mr. Lozano."

"We're not barbarians like Cargill, we just want to participate in the market, not a monopoly like them."

"We will never use unethical means to manipulate food prices, nor will we ignore your interests in pursuit of our own profits."

"What we are pursuing is win-win cooperation-—— or I can put it bluntly, we just want to drive those four hooligans out of every sovereign state."

"This is my guarantee and the ...... behind me Company's Warranties. ”

After listening to Wang Ming's explanation, Lozano fell into deep thought.

As long as you have the right to participate, don't have a monopoly.

There will be no manipulation of food prices.

Pursue win-win cooperation.

These conditions sound like a dream.

You know, another company of the same nature as COFCO, they don't say that.

Those people came to destroy, to occupy, and even to ...... For colonization.

And the man in front of him...... Their credibility is excellent.

In particular, what they have done in Africa in recent years is a confirmation of their concept of "win-win cooperation".

If that's the case, maybe it's not impossible to cooperate?

The phrase "get the four rascals out" really touched him......

After a long time, Lozano sighed quietly.

He had already made a decision in his heart, but he still intended to bargain again.

"Your proposal is very good, Mr. Wang Ming."

"You're still asking too much, though...... If we want market access, then we can only exchange two million tons of soybeans. ”

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Wang Ming's face.

He knew that this cooperation negotiation was basically a success.

So, instead of rushing to discuss the price with Lozano, he asked:

"Mr. Lozano, do you know how the J-8 III and J-10 are performing?"

Lozano nodded and replied:

"It's clear."

"Since it is clear, then I would like to ask you, how do they perform compared to the A-4 attack aircraft? How does it compare to the Harrier? ”

When Wang Ming's words fell, Lozano's heart felt like he had been stabbed hard.

If the Hercules-class destroyer is a nightmare for the Argentine Navy, then the Harrier is a nightmare for the Air Force.

In that year, his boys were desperately delivering bombs to the heads of British warships under intensive anti-aircraft fire, but before they could do damage to the destroyers, the Harrier fighters had quickly taken off to join the battlefield.

Then, there was a one-sided crushing.

Super mobility, super electronic systems, super weapons......

One A-4 after another crashed into the sea, and at the most tragic time, the two fighters even hit a 0-21 battle loss ratio!

This is an extremely cruel truth, and it is also a knot in his heart that he has never let go of in the past few years.

It would be nice if you could have a fighter in your hand that is enough to fight against it......

And now, the opportunity seems to be in front of its eyes.

"J-8 III, can it fight against the Harrier?"

Wang Ming shook his head disdainfully and replied:

"Crush."

"The F-14 is also not enough to fight against the J-8 III."

"Even if we face the F-16 head-on, we are confident that we will play at least two or less exchange ratios."

"I guess that's enough for you guys, isn't it?"

Lozano nodded.

Yes, enough.

He let out a long sigh of relief and stretched out his hand to Wang Ming:

"Welcome to Argentina!"
