Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

Chapter 537: Difficult business

"Mr. Hook, I deeply sympathize with Rolls-Royce." It was Hook's old friend and opponent Wu Daguan who spoke.

"Although the "MK202" engine cooperation project with Huaxia at the beginning helped Rolls-Royce to get out of its predicament a little bit, but you know that the chances of another time are very slim. After all, even if it was already very close to completion. The situation of "MK202" in China is not too good, and the final installation target has not been confirmed until now, so there is really little possibility of wanting to do it again." Wu Daguan sighed half-truth.

Hook also sighed and said: "Yes, I still remember that at the project acceptance meeting of your third machine department, Mr. Jackson, our business director of Rolls-Royce, once said, "Technology is installed in people’s minds. Repeated practice in production, after a few days, it will cease to exist." And now more than a year has passed, Wu, I am really worried that your technicians and workers have forgotten how to make a qualified aircraft engine."

Wu Daguan continued: "In fact, in retrospect, our original choice still has some problems. After all, military engines are more often closely linked to models. The success of a model aircraft directly determines the survivability of the aircraft engine. At the beginning, we followed your recommendation and purchased the "MK512" directly. In that case, at least the engine maintenance and production tasks of the civil aviation "Trident" fleet can be maintained, and it will not be like this."

Sir Hook also followed with a sigh, but his eyes lit up as if suddenly remembering something.

"Wu, I suddenly have an idea to discuss with you."

"Oh? You say?"

"Since you have decided to buy the production line of the "BAC" passenger aircraft, the supporting engine is obviously needed. Instead of buying one from us in the future, it is better for you to produce this engine yourself. In that case, you can solve the follow-up by yourself. A series of questions."

Wu Daguan pretended to be surprised with an "ah", and he hesitated for a long time before saying: "This is good, but Sir Hook, we spent more than 70 million pounds on purchasing your "Speey MK202" engine technology. In order to meet the needs of production, we purchased more than 100 million pounds of equipment, and added them together. The investment of more than 170 million pounds did not include the infrastructure transformation and personnel input of the Xijing Aviation Development Plant. It would not be possible without 200 million pounds, 200 million pounds, how much does your current "MK512" sell for? Is there 1 million pounds? This has to be converted, just this fixed investment can buy 200 engines , Enough to fit 100 "BAC" aircraft, and whether our aircraft can be sold for 100 is still unknown. After all, this is an older aircraft..."

Hook shook his head and interrupted Wu Daguan's words, and hurriedly explained: "No, Wu, you can't calculate this account like this. In fact, if you want to purchase the production authorization of the civilian version of the "Speey" engine, you don't need to do it anymore. Spend so much money, because there are quite a lot of devices that are universal, and the core machine is exactly the same..."

"Oh? In this case, you can think about it. At least the equipment in the factory can be used, and the workers will not be unfamiliar with the long-term use of technology. Hook, are you sure you can?" Wu Daguan asked with a smile. Tao.

"Wu, of course, you should believe in my character." Sir Hook replied dissatisfied, and muttered at the same time: "Let me think about which engine is best for you... Well, there is."

Wu Daguan asked, "So, which one Sir Hook would like to recommend to us? Explain in advance, "MK512" is not good, it is too old."

Hooker replied: "No, Wu. Of course, what I solemnly recommend to you is "MK606", one of the latest scientific and technological achievements of our "Luo Luo". This engine is actually developed based on "MK512", so The "MK202" you bought shares the core machine and has a lot of inheritance relationships. Its installation method is almost the same as that of "MK512". If you use it on the "Trident", it can be replaced almost seamlessly, and if it is used in the "BAC1- Above 11-700, the range and passenger capacity can be further improved, because when it increases the thrust to 7.7 tons, the fuel consumption and noise have been further improved, fully complying with the latest U.S. and European standards. "

"Well, Hook, I believe you in terms of technology, but this cost is a key factor that we need to consider. Hook, you have to know that this negotiation is entirely commercial in nature, so all The principle of is inevitably based on commercial benchmarks, which is quite different from the situation in the last time. So, I am afraid that you have to formulate a very attractive quotation and other commercial terms to help me convince my leaders— —Oh, according to your British habits, you should be called a board member."

Hu Kegang wanted to answer, but he heard Tan Zhenhua say dissatisfied on the side: "No, Mr. Wu, did you make this decision a bit too hasty? We said before that the most advanced civil aviation engine of Luo Luo is actually their "Rida". RB211, it’s the tri-rotor that they spent a lot of money on. We have money, or we don’t buy it, but we buy the best..."

Wu Daguan immediately showed an awkward expression on his face when he heard the words, and turned to Hooker and said, "Hooker, look at this..."

It turns out that you two have already colluded in acting, and the goal turned out to be our love-RB211!

Hook finally realized it, no wonder that when he mentioned the engine, the two of them praised the engine from the left and sympathized with the other, and they had this idea!

"Ruida" RB211, that is the head of Luoluo's Huadan, how can it be sold for decades to come? The company is risking bankruptcy—well, it’s actually bankrupt. It has spent a lot of money to develop this epoch-making engine in order to compete with GM and Pratt & Whitney. Although it seems that the results are not significant, but Hooker I firmly believe that, in the near future, this fuel-efficient, environmentally friendly, outstanding thrust-to-weight ratio, simple maintenance, and long life engine will be favored by the market!

"MK606", in the final analysis, is still a product of the previous generation. Of course, it can be exchanged for some emergency small money. However, RB211, that represents the future, so absolutely not!

But ah, it was me who asked Wu Daguan to buy the engine production line at the beginning, okay now the fool knows, this is the set of the opposing masters, so that I can take the initiative to propose this matter, but the beginning of the story is indeed my own choice. Come out, then, how can we politely respond to Absolute’s request and successfully sell the "MK606" production line?

After all, it's Wu Daguan that you have gone bad? You are obviously a veteran who studies technical work, OK? When I dealt with you last time, I didn’t have so many twists and turns. When I retired, I changed a place to work, it was like a personal change. After learning the next set, can we still play together happily in the future?

Alas, business is getting harder and harder, even Huaxia people are not easy to fool...
