The next morning, after everyone finished breakfast, they packed their luggage, led by Max, and left New York for Boston.

When we arrived there, we were welcomed warmly and arranged to stay in a local hotel.

After settling down, Tang Jianming took everyone and General Electric people to sit together that afternoon. He first exchanged greetings and then gradually got to the point.

Perhaps because they were attracted by my country's huge market, General Electric wanted to enter this huge market. They were not only enthusiastic, but also attached great importance to this matter. In addition to Max, a vice president of General Electric's Aero Engine Division revealed it.

The business contact was led by Sean Kyle, a senior executive at General Electric and a technical engineer named Jack Hall.

Sean Kyle was very talkative. He first warmly welcomed these guests from the East on behalf of General Electric, and then began to introduce some of their company's situation.

Including introduction of their lm2500 gas turbine.

Of course, the specific technical introduction is still under the responsibility of technical engineer Jack Hall. He introduced it in detail and prepared a lot of information. This introduction is much more comprehensive than what you know through some information when you were in China.

Yang Fan serves as the translator, fluent in English and accurate in translation. It is no problem for some obscure professional nouns and terms, as if it is not difficult at all.

With Yang Fan's excellent translation, everyone has no obstacles in communication. Tang Jianming, Shen Bin, Ma Jun and others are serious, as if they are afraid of revealing anything.

Some information distributed by the other party was also carefully collected, especially some technical information about the lm2500 gas turbine.

Tang Jianming also asked many questions, and the large proportion of questions were related to the lm2500 gas turbine. The other party generally answered them. Tang Jianming recorded them one by one, and more and more things were recorded in the notebook.

Time just passed like this and passed quickly.

As dusk fell, everyone ended the conversation with unfulfilled pleasure and went to a Western restaurant in Boston for dinner at the invitation of each other.

After dinner, Max drove politely to the hotel where he stayed. After returning to the hotel, no one returned to their respective rooms. From today on, he officially entered work and became completely nervous.

Everyone gathered together for a meeting and summarized some of the gains this afternoon and put forward some things that need to be inspected tomorrow. Everyone spoke enthusiastically and kept speaking for more than two hours. It was getting late and everyone went back to their room to rest.

Yang Fan felt a little tired. Seeing that it was getting late, he would go to the lm2500 manufacturing factory for inspection tomorrow, and then take a shower and go to bed.

the next day.

Max came early as usual and took everyone to the lm2500 manufacturing factory. When he arrived at the factory, Sean and Jack had already arrived there.

Everyone met at the entrance of the factory, and after a few words of politeness, they walked into the factory together. After entering the factory, they were still very touched by everyone. Except for Yang Fan, no one expected that the manufacturing level in the United States was much higher than that of us.

Needless to mention the environment and hardware facilities in the factory, the products at the manufacturing site are not simple and have a high technological content.

Our domestic industrial strength is still relatively weak, so of course we cannot compare with world-renowned manufacturing companies like General Electric. After the reform and opening up, our development speed will become faster and faster, and this gap will only become smaller and smaller.

In addition to Yang Fan, everyone finally saw the real lm2500 gas turbine for the first time. Not only were there finished products at the production site, but also workers were carrying out the assembly operation of lm2500.

These American workers may have curious about seeing Tang Jianming, Yang Fan and others, and some people will take the initiative to smile at everyone.

"This is a lm2500 gas turbine..."

Engineer Jack Hall introduces this gas turbine to you in detail and is very professional. Yang Fan translates Jack's introduction to you.

It can be seen that whether it is Tang Jianming, Shen Bin and others, everyone's eyes are shiny when they see this lm2500, as if they see a favorite treasure.

Yang Fan felt silent. Putting aside the supply cut behind, the lm2500 gas turbine is indeed a very good ship-purpose gas turbine. Even the US's own warships use this machine as power.

Because we can't take photos, we can only look carefully.

Tang Jianming and Shen Bin are all technical experts. They read very carefully, remembering some details firmly in their minds, and also remembering some things on the notebook they carry.

I spent almost all of my time at the production site, and everyone was reluctant to leave, saying that there was too little time.

According to the itinerary, such on-site inspection will only last half a day, and will not be present in the afternoon, but will be spent in the conference room.

In the afternoon, everyone sat together and started negotiating the introduction of the lm2500 gas turbine. At this time, Tang Jianming and Jiang Yi from the Military Industry Bureau were the protagonists.

In one afternoon, of course it is impossible to negotiate the specific import of lm2500, because import involves all aspects, and everyone's purpose is to reach an intention on some things.

The progress was also relatively smooth and achieved considerable results. At least in many aspects, the opinions between the two sides gradually became unified.

In the evening, after returning to the hotel where he checked in, Tang Jianming called everyone to have a meeting again. Time is so precious that no one wants to waste any time.

Tang Jianming said happily: "Everyone has seen it, our inspection has been relatively smooth. This afternoon, we have reached a lot of intentions for the import of the lm2500 gas turbine. We will continue to talk tomorrow, hoping to reach more intentions."

There will definitely be a second or even a third round for specific negotiations. It is indeed worthy of happiness to be able to reach some intentions now.

At this meeting, everyone's speeches were still very enthusiastic. When it was Yang Fan's turn, he suggested: "Mr. Tang, I think the delivery date of the first test prototype should be as early as possible. A lot of our work should be focused on this test prototype. In addition, the number of delivery in the first batch should be as high as possible. It is best to reach ten units. It is not as high as possible. We must try to reach eight units."

Historically, we only imported four lm2500 gas turbines. Later, because of the West's blockade of our technology, General Electric no longer supplies lm2500. Then this gas turbine was completely out of stock, and our 052 ship was in a dilemma of no rice to be put into the pot.

If we imported more than four lm2500 gas turbines, six or eight, before the West launched a technical blockade, the situation may be much better even if supply is cut off in the future.

Tang Jianming agreed: "Well, Xiao Yang's suggestion is very good. We will put forward this request tomorrow."

The next morning, everyone sat down and started to continue negotiations. Overall, it went smoothly and some intentions were reached. Tang Jianming also specially put forward the request to import the first batch of ten lm2500 gas turbines, but the other party did not give a clear reply.

At noon, the two sides signed a memorandum of cooperation and wrote some of the reached intentions into this memorandum.

Tang Jianming warmly sent an invitation, hoping that GE would send a team to us as soon as possible to continue the second round of negotiations. Sean Kyle accepted the invitation on behalf of GE.

There are some things that cannot be decided by Tang Jianming or Jiang Yi, and a bigger leader needs to make a decision. In the next round of negotiations, the location will be in Donghai City, and we will also have higher-level leaders.

Everyone stayed in Boston for three days and two nights, all of them were working, and they didn't even have time to go out for a walk.

Now the work has been completed, and after the signing of this memorandum means that the inspection will be successfully completed.

Sean Kyle, Jack Hall and others took everyone into the car, and Max accompanied everyone back to New York, back to the hotel where everyone checked in when they first came to New York.

At the entrance of the hotel, Max shook hands with everyone and said goodbye. His mission has ended. The next two days will be the time for our staff to relax. We mainly take a look and stroll around New York City.

After saying goodbye to Max, everyone came to the hotel with their luggage and would stay here for two nights.

When he walked into the hotel, Yang Fan felt a little nervous and expectant, and thought to himself, I don’t know if there is any reply after sending my three letters.

Chapter completed!
