The first commission promised by Xiaoyu did arrive quickly, a total of 20 million US dollars, all of which were paid into the account of Dongfeng Group.

This is their first income since they came to Indonesia, and although it may not seem like much, the speed at which they are actually making money is quite impressive.

Because by now, they have actually only been in Indonesia for two weeks.

I made 20 million US dollars in two weeks, and I am afraid that I would not dare to think of it in other mercenary groups.

Only with the strength of MPRI's level can the cost of an operation reach more than 10 million US dollars.

I have to say that the Dongfeng Corps is really super cost-effective.

After paying all kinds of pensions, there is still 12 million US dollars, and this money is naturally invested by Chen Shen in the next step of the equipment procurement plan.

Or, to put it more bluntly, the money will be used to procure the planes needed by the flying team.

Chen Shen really wanted to continue to prostitute for nothing, but he also knew that the "significantly exceeding" commission given by Xiaoyu was actually essentially letting him handle the plane by himself.

Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, and it is impossible for him to say that he has received money and wants things, so he has to do it himself and find a suitable plane.

However, this search process made Chen Shen a little unfamiliar.

In the case that he was accustomed to buying things that he couldn't see or put on the table, Zhang Yang actually directly asked him an account manager of a so-called "private flight solutions company" to La Bota, and gave Chen Shen a "strange" sales pitch with complete information and absolutely legal processes.

Walking into Zhang Yang's office and looking at the flattering expression of the Chinese account manager opposite, Chen Shen suddenly felt extremely separated.

He was clearly not used to being the boss and was even a little nervous.

After all, the account manager is an old fritter in the mall, he can see Chen Shen's emotions at a glance, and he instantly has a judgment in his heart.

——

In his opinion, he was afraid that the person opposite him was a local boss who had made a fortune by opening a mine, and wanted to buy some planes to pretend to be forced, but he had never experienced this kind of occasion, so he was nervous.

So, the account manager put down his "professional" and "luxury" style, immediately put on a big grin, stood up and walked in front of Chen Shen, took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said:

"Brother Chen! I've been waiting for you for a long time! ”

"Sit down, sit down, everything is ready for you."

"It's a pity, your conditions here are too poor, I originally said that I would bring two female publicists here, but it was really inconvenient."

"Ouch, I don't know, I've been shooting and firing guns these days, but it's making us sad."

"I heard that Kruno's side fought harder, and the Yankees killed more than thirty people."

"Oh, that's a big deal. Hey, Brother Chen, you haven't watched the news yet, have you? ”

Hearing this, Chen Shen coughed and replied:

"Looked."

"I said, how can you not watch the news for such a big thing - you look at me, I forgot to introduce myself!"

"My name is Yu Bin, a person from the north, not an overseas Chinese."

"Here's my business card, keep it."

"If you have anything in the future, come to me directly, whether you buy a plane or rent a plane, I will give you a one-stop solution here!"

"That's good."

Chen Shen nodded calmly, pointed to the sofa and motioned to sit down and talk, Yu Bin immediately followed, and did not forget to pour Chen Shen a cup of tea prepared by himself.

After a few simple chats, Chen Shen led the topic to the main topic.

Yu Bin, who was on the other side, was as good as a stream, and said:

"Brother Chen, we are all our own people, so I won't hide it from you."

"Although our company says that it sells solutions, it is essentially selling aircraft and services."

"You also know that buying a plane is different from buying a car, you may buy a car to see it, but you must buy an airplane to drive."

"So, before we talk, I have to ask you, what do you need from an airplane?"

Hearing his words, Chen Shen couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Seriously, if he can choose at will, he can't wait for the bigger the plane, the better, considering the situation on the Indonesian side, it is best to get Maozi's Be-200 over, change it yourself, add a few machine guns, and then two 30mm 2A42 cannons, if it is not enough, add two more Maozi 57 guns, and then not enough to simply get on the Nona rifled mortar grenade.

In a word, the bigger the caliber, the more just, the more fierce the firepower, the more peaceful, and the sky of Sulawesi must be guarded with serious air gunboats.

——

Unfortunately, this idea can only be imagined.

It's not because Chen Shen can't afford to buy another -200, after all, this thing is only more than 20 million US dollars, and Chen Shen can take it with his own private money if he grits his teeth.

It's not because he can't get those weapon systems and can't modify them.

Indonesia can't change it, it's a big deal to pull it to Africa to change it, South Africa is a must to change this thing, as long as you give them money, not to mention the 120mm rifled gun, they dare to move the 155 gun up for you.

The main reason is that even if this thing is built, it can't actually fly.

As a civil aircraft, this thing is so big, you have to apply for a route; As a military aircraft, you don't have an official platform, and anyone can knock you down

Therefore, Chen Shen can choose only some small and medium-sized amphibious multi-purpose aircraft, but this range is too wide, I really don't know how to choose.

Looking at his embarrassed expression, Yu Bin on the other side looked like he "knew it in his heart" and said:

"You don't know how to fly, do you?"

"It's okay, just say it according to your instincts."

"We sell solutions, and as long as you ask for it, we can definitely meet it."

"Specifically, for example, how many people can sit, how far can they fly, are there any special requirements for comfort, how about it, do you have any ideas?"

Chen Shen pondered for a moment, and finally replied:

"I need a seaplane with a maximum take-off weight of about 20 tons and a maximum load of at least 5 tons."

"At the same time, the cruising speed should be a little faster, at least 350 kilometers per hour."

"Also, the rate of climb should be high and the maneuverability should be good."

"The most important thing is to have the potential for retrofitting."

Yu Bin opened his mouth in amazement, not knowing what to say for a while.

Good guy, where did this soil boss come from, learned a few nouns, and installed them?

Bro, what rate of climb, what mobility, do you know what this thing means?

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you know, if you are a boss who buys an airplane, can you use these indicators?

Shouldn't we try to choose the one that is as comfortable as possible and has a large number of passengers?

Well, the retrofit potential is quite common.

After all, judging from the businesses they have handled, most bosses will change their planes to bells and whistles.

Needless to say, what sofas, living rooms, putting beds on the plane is also the norm, and even the most excessive boss directly modified a "recreation room" on his plane, saying that he wanted to experience the feeling of a trapeze.

The boss in front of you can't be this type, right?

It also requires "load capacity", what's the matter, as soon as it flies into the sky, it will be under fire?

Seeing that he is so young, maybe he is indeed a little more energetic.

But

The customer is God, and since you've said so, that's the way to talk.

So he answered:

"Understood. I took note of your request. ”

"As per your request. I have the impression that there are still a few seaplanes that can be satisfied. ”

"But it's very small, because you know that the seaplane track is still mainly small planes, and you need to have a load of more than 5 tons. That's going to be very difficult. ”

"If it's the best fit, there should be only two options."

"One is a German-made Domini 228 and the other is a Canadian-made CL-415."

"Both aircraft are available and can be in place at short notice if you want them."

"But I have to warn that the comfort of the aircraft screened according to this criterion will be quite poor."

"I want to know, do you have hard requirements for these parameters?"

Hard requirements?

Of course.

I bought the plane myself to change it, and it was not like before to put a heavy machine gun on it and even if it was changed, but to install a modular weapon system.

In this case, the load of an aircraft is particularly important.

If there is no load of 5 tons, I will change to a hammer?

A large-caliber cannon with ammunition is more than half a ton, and my plane has flown up, so it can't be just a cannon without a machine gun, right?

Coupled with the mess of control systems and equipment, the average load occupied by a cannon is at least a ton, and the load occupied by a machine gun is half a ton.

Three heavy machine guns, one cannon, with ammunition and personnel, is about five tons.

Only by reaching this standard can Chen Shen have the meaning of procurement.

So, it's really a hard requirement.

Thinking of this, Chen Shen nodded solemnly.

A look of helplessness flashed on Yu Bin's face, and he looked at Zhang Yang, who was listening, and the latter's application had not changed at all.

Good guys, this is still a pair of pants.

Then there is nothing negotiable.

After a few seconds of silence, he asked:

"You're going to use these planes. Entertainment? ”

"If it's entertainment, don't just think about seaplanes, ordinary private jets have more options."

"All I want is a seaplane."

Chen Shen interrupted Yu Bin without hesitation - this is also a bottom line.

Due to the complexity of the task, it was impossible for him to guarantee that the plane would have the opportunity to land at a fixed airfield after every takeoff, so seaplanes were the best choice in terms of the vast water conditions near Sulawesi.

Even in case of emergency, the plane can land on inland waterways, which is the best option both from the point of view of concealment and safety.

"Then it's just the two I said."

Yu Bin nodded and continued to ask:

"Are there any requirements for comfort modifications?"

"Like seats, cabin doors? Living room? Cleaning the device? ”

Living room? Cleaning the device?

Chen Shen was a little confused.

Is there anything else that changed this on the plane?

What the hell do I want this for?

"All the seats had to be removed, and the hatches had to be removed."

Chen Shen replied.

"What?!"

Yu Bin was dumbfounded.

No, you're planning an air tour, are you?

Wait a minute.

Something doesn't seem right.

It seems to be on its own. Guessed wrong from the start.

"Yes, not only the hatch will have to be removed, but the structure of the aircraft will have to be transformed."

"I mean, it's better to make it as lightweight as possible so that we can reinstall it with new equipment later."

"For example, this one you showed me now, CL-415, this is a fire-fighting plane, right?"

"I think it's a good fit, it's a lot of space for the main tank, but I don't need it."

"Before delivery, you're going to help me remove the tank, and I'm going to put something else in it."

"Got it."

Yu Bin's heart suddenly had an ominous premonition, but in his professional quality, he did not continue to ask, but asked instead:

"I heard that you are going to buy a total of three planes this time, but what about the other two? Do you want CL-415 too? ”

Chen Shen shook his head and replied:

"No need."

"The other two are good for small machines, since they were both bought in Canada, then they need DHC-3!"

"Again, I only have one modification request: I just want a platform that can fly, and I don't want anything else that is unnecessary!"

"Good!"

Hearing Chen Shen's words, Yu Bin couldn't help but shudder.

He suddenly remembered the "security" team he had seen training when he entered the park, and the weapons in their hands.

At this moment, the prejudice in his heart about this "big money" disappeared, and was replaced by a deep fear.

My mom.

What he really wants to buy is not his amphibious fighter, right??

That's right, it's only justified that way.

What the hell is an aerial artillery room, what the fuck he wants is a real aerial artillery room!

What was the hatch removed for?

Undoubtedly, it was for the sake of mounting machine guns.

What is the purpose of removing the water storage tank?

Maybe it's hanging bombs.

As for what structural makeover.

I'm afraid I have to put bulletproof armor on it.

Yu Bin's body trembled involuntarily, to be honest, after doing this business for so many years, he can be regarded as having served any customer.

But such a stimulating business. Or for the first time!

Damn, I'm just a private jet seller, not an arms dealer!

——

But then again, I didn't sell arms either.

I'm selling airplanes, and as for what you've changed to, it's none of my business?

Thinking of this, Yu Bin's thoughts instantly became clear.

He exhaled softly and spoke:

"Understood, Mr. Chen."

"I fully understand your demands, and we will pre-modify the aircraft according to your requirements in the future."

"This process may take some time, but it will take about a week or two to be specific."

"Once everything is taken care of, we will deliver the plane in accordance with the proper procedures."

"As for your specific use later, we are no longer involved."

"Of course, the follow-up maintenance and repair work well, we can only repair the original aircraft."

"No problem."

Chen Shen stood up and stretched out his hand to Yu Bin.

"Then let's have a good time working together."

"I hope you can get my plane here soon."

"Don't worry, rest assured, I promise to go as fast as I can."
