Chapter 339 Ocean Black Hole(1/2)
the next day.
"Is this old man coming yet?"
"Whatever, if they don't come, we should go back." Qin Tao said, "We are not used to this problem of theirs."
"Submarines launch cruise missiles from torpedo tubes. This technology is really good." Deng Rui said: "If we can obtain Lao Maozi's Club missiles, it will be of great significance to our submarines!"
In the past, submarines could only use torpedoes as weapons and occasionally deploy mines. In this way, the attack distance would not exceed fifty kilometers. However, what if the submarine had submarine-launched missiles?
That can attack enemies a hundred kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers away!
Although Lao Maozi's cruise missile submarine has been able to do this for a long time, only Lao Maozi has this strength. No other country will develop weapons like cruise missile submarines that can be launched from torpedo tubes. The meaning is
Quite significant.
Although the country is currently studying how to launch the YJ-81 missile through a torpedo tube, it is just adding a package to the outside of the missile, and this kind of missile can only fly dozens of kilometers, which is similar to the attack capability of a torpedo.
.
"Yes, if it can be introduced, it will of course be of great benefit to us. However, this missile has just been developed by Lao Maozi, and it may not be sold to us. If we can't reach an agreement this time, we will wait.
, when the next time Lao Maozi comes to see us and sells door to door, then we have to take out the bottom of the box."
Qin Tao didn't care.
The purpose of coming here this time has been achieved. The so-called 636 submarine is just a supplement. If it can be purchased, it will be better. If it cannot be purchased, we will talk about it later.
Qin Tao is not in a hurry, the other party will definitely be anxious. Think about what later generations said, the order for Kilo-class submarines saved half of the people of St. Petersburg. Lao Maozi is just waiting for the order from the East to buy rice and cook it.
People from the shipyard and design bureau came to see them off. Their team will set off in two or three days and embark on the road to the East. As for the advance payment, Mingzhou Group has already paid it to their account. Everyone is very happy.
Excited, looking forward to making a lot of money and living a good life.
In this way, the group of people went to the train station. They needed to take a train to Moscow first, and then fly back from Moscow. After all, not every city in Lao Maozi has passenger planes flying to China.
"There are Lao Maozi's intelligence agents monitoring us around us." Xu Zhengyang quietly informed everyone of the news.
"They are here to observe our reaction and see if we really want to leave." Qin Tao said: "We will pretend to be happy and let them be disappointed to the end."
Zheng Ming nodded.
"After we arrive in Moscow, there are still a few hours before the plane takes off." Zheng Ming said, "Do you want to go shopping in downtown Moscow?"
"Moscow is the capital of Lao Maozi after all, and the scenery there is pretty good." Qin Tao said with a smile: "You can go for a walk on the nearby Moskva River. Although the river is frozen now, the scenery is not bad. Time is running out.
If it's suitable, you can go to the Grand Theater to watch a movie. Oh, and you can also have a beautiful encounter with Lao Maozi's woman."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Mr. Qin is still less than thirty years old now, so when he talks, he is always so humorous. Isn't that the kind of woman you are looking for when you meet a beautiful queen?
Everyone, just listen and forget it, but you can't do this, it's embarrassing.
The train started banging loudly and arrived at the Moscow station. Everyone got off the train with their luggage, then took a few taxis and toured the city of Moscow. They arrived at the airport just before the plane took off.
"Dear passengers, please note that the flight from Moscow to the Chinese capital has been delayed due to bad weather. Please wait patiently."
When he heard the news, Qin Tao felt confident. Lao Maozi must still be discussing urgently at this time!
If it is a passenger plane from other countries, it will definitely not dare to take off once it encounters bad weather. However, the title of fighting nation is not for nothing. Lao Maozi's flight does not dare to take off and land in any bad weather. It is raining heavily at the target airport.
, thunder and lightning, flights from other countries have to hover in the sky and wait, or even divert to other airports. Only Lao Maozi dares to fly down and land.
Reduced visibility? What's so scary? The captain of Lao Maozi once took the initiative to pull up the curtains and make a blind landing. It was a thrilling experience.
Now, the sky in Moscow is bright, if there is anything that cannot take off, the old man must be urgently discussing it.
Now it's good, everyone can sit on the Diaoyutai safely.
"When you get bored, let's play poker?"
Qin Tao started to make suggestions.
Poker is a special hobby of Chinese people. This kind of behavior makes foreigners very confused. They are obviously going on a trip, but they arrive at the destination and play poker all day!
Now, in the open space of the airport, several people sat on their suitcases and started playing poker.
"Old Zheng, you lost, put a note on it!" Qin Tao picked up a piece of paper, stuck out his tongue, licked it, and then stuck it on Zheng Ming's head.
"Haha, Mr. Qin, you lost!" Zheng Ming followed suit and took out a note and stuck it on Qin Tao's head.
When Grishen arrived, what he saw was such a strange scene. Four people playing poker, each of them had densely packed notes on their foreheads, which looked like wigs, and their faces were all covered with paper.
Can't see it anymore.
"Who is Mr. Qin? Who is Mr. Zheng?" Grishen could only shout.
Several people raised their heads and opened the papers in front of them.
"Mr. Grishen, are you here to see us off? It's strange that your big airline is afraid of bad weather. When can this plane take off?"
Grishen's face looked a little embarrassed: "Mr. Qin, can we talk again?"
"Have you agreed to our conditions?"
"Shall we find a room at the airport?"
There are many rooms in the airport. For example, when clearing customs, if someone is found carrying something special, they will be called into these rooms for questioning. Now, one of the largest rooms has become a temporary reception room.
At this time, a group of people sat down in the room. Qin Tao and the others had torn off the papers on their heads and were waiting for Grishen to speak.
"We have carefully considered your request," Grishin said. "With a price of US$150 million per vessel, we can only give you one hundred TEST-71MKEs."
Wire-guided torpedoes, as for the 3M-54E missiles, you need to pay for them separately, one million US dollars per missile."
When Grishen was talking, he looked at Qin Tao nervously. Can the other party agree to this condition? The other party's attitude has always been very firm!
If the other party leaves, St. Petersburg will definitely be disappointed.
"3M-54E? What's the range?" Qin Tao asked.
"The range is two hundred and twenty kilometers." Grishin quickly introduced.
"In other words, you have reduced the range of this submarine-launched missile by more than half?"
How did the data leak out? Grishin was a little annoyed.
When Qin Tao proposed these two weapons, Grishen was a little surprised, because these weapons were for their own use and were the latest developments. Some damn guy must have received money and then used these weapons
The data was sold to Qin Tao!
There is nothing to say about that torpedo, just sell it, but this missile has really caused huge controversy. St. Petersburg really wants to do this business, and the related missile manufacturers also hope to make money by selling the missile.
Therefore, the Navy finally compromised and could sell it, but the weapons would be reduced!
The model they use for their own use has a range of more than 500 kilometers, but the range sold to China has been reduced to 220 kilometers. In this way, the several parties have reached a consensus, and he hastily informed Qin Tao and the others.
But, can they agree?
Qin Tao didn't speak, and no one else spoke. The conference room fell into silence.
"Qin, I know that my attitude is not good. If it is because of me, I apologize to you. We have made concessions and I hope you will make concessions too, so that we can complete this business."
Hearing Grishen say this, Qin Tao smiled: "Mr. Grishen, they all hate you because your existence makes it impossible to do a lot of arms business. In their eyes, you are not a good person at all."
I don’t want them to do business.”
"Of course not." Grishen shook his head: "I did that just to sell the weapons at a good price. This is very important to us, but I also know that it is also important to sell the arms. We
Now, arms exports to China are absolutely indispensable. Therefore, during the last Su-27 negotiation, even after arriving at the airport, we finally unloaded the luggage."
At this moment, Grishin finally revealed his true feelings.
Even if there is no Damao Arms Export Corporation, Grishin played the role of a bad guy in the negotiations for the first batch of Su-27s. After that, he played the bad guy again and again and tried to raise the price.
He is not a troublemaker, and he is not trying to disturb these businesses, he just wants to sell the weapons at a better price.
In his heart, he has long understood that the current Da Mao cannot do without weapons procurement from the East. Their huge arms system needs a market, and the East is the most suitable!
"Mr. Grishen, you are the most honest now." Qin Tao sighed with emotion: "We Orientals are also the most sincere. Your sincerity moved me, so the plan you proposed, we
Accepted."
Accepted?
Grishin let out a long breath.
Zheng Ming and Deng Rui also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone is happy with this ending!
"It's just that since we don't have more budget, we can only purchase ten of these 3M-54E missiles now, five of the anti-ship type and five of the ground attack type. We will not purchase more until later.
Lots of missiles.”
"Of course, no problem." Grishin agreed immediately. Ten missiles are worth ten million US dollars. With this money, the missile production factory and the missile design unit can also breathe a sigh of relief. Don't worry.
Had a great time.
Of course he didn't know that the next batch that Qin Tao talked about was gone. With these ten missiles, the relevant units of the motherland could learn from the technology of this missile.
"It's just that your information is wrong." Grishen continued: "The 3M54E model is only for anti-ship missiles. The corresponding ground attack version is numbered 3M14E. However, since you want it, we can also provide it.
, the range is still two hundred and twenty kilometers."
The business was concluded in this way, and there were too many twists and turns. Grishen was also very emotional. From being tough at the beginning, to compromising in the middle, to being frank at the end, frankness finally worked.
No one took their luggage back. At the airport, a special plane took them directly to St. Petersburg.
