Chapter 176

“Oh? Since you don’t have the sincerity to cooperate, we won’t force it.” When Zheng Yucheng heard that the other party threatened him with a missile purchase order, where could he be happy, “You can find another unit to cooperate.”

Who do the Pakistani think they are?

If there is no sincerity in cooperation, there is no need to talk about it.

Even if 617 can provide the same solution as the 404 base, they don’t even think about it if some technology 404 is not available.

“Director Zheng, we didn’t mean that.” Mubara did not expect Zheng Yucheng to react so fiercely, which is completely different from their previous analysis.

“What does that mean?” Zheng Yucheng said with a cold face, “From the beginning to now, have we done anything that seems insincere? Our project and technology are open to you without any reservations…”

Anyone who encounters such a thing will make trouble.

Before the base had no money, Zheng Yucheng hoped to cooperate with Pakistan and get a fund. The 25 million U.S. dollars from the Iraqis will arrive in three days. With this money, it can last a long time.

Naturally, he would not agree with the Bakis to coerce them to lower their conditions.

As Xie Kai said, in the whole of China, only the conditions put forward by base 404 best meet their needs. The advantage of negotiation lies in the hands of Zheng Yucheng, and he will naturally not lower the conditions.

“Director Zheng, the US$50 million threshold fee proposed by you is too high, although the conditions are very attractive. If you include US$50 million in the cost of each car, according to the price you proposed before, it is basically It is impossible. Even if 300 vehicles are produced, the cost per vehicle will reach 1.7 million US dollars.” Musharraf said calmly.

He has no responsibility for the Chinese to deceive them.

Originally, it was said that the cost per vehicle was only about 2.5 million US dollars. According to the current situation, another 50 million yuan is invested in research and development. Not counting the production cost, the technical cost of each tank will reach 3.3 million US dollars.

“Soviet T-72 main battle tank, the price of each is only 3.5 million US dollars…” Mubara further added.

For a while, Zheng Yucheng didn’t know how to answer.

It seems that there is no problem.

But when I think about it, this is simply not right. “The 50 million US dollars is the cost of technology use, not the research and development cost of the tank!”

“For us, it is the cost of tank research and development. This does not add to the subsequent investment in research and development funds.” Mubara said solemnly.

“Hurry up and get people to find Xie Kai, otherwise I can’t tell them.” Zheng Yucheng turned his head and whispered to Wang Guilin.

Wang Guilin nodded, greeted the Pakistani and left the conference room.

Pakistan knew what he was doing, but didn’t care at all.

What if Xie Kai is here? There is no way to explain this problem.

The production cost of each vehicle will never be low. If the technical cost is included, this will be a price they cannot afford. When the 359 tank is developed, it may cost more than six million US dollars.

Pakistan simply cannot afford to use such expensive tanks.

The price is too high, no matter how advanced the performance is, it is no good.

When Zheng Yucheng was waiting for Xie Kai to come, he started to talk to the Pakistanis. The Pakistanis didn’t care, and kept with him. Anyway, he didn’t rush for such a long time.

“I’m going to take the exam right away, so I won’t let me review it?” Xie Kai looked at Wang Guilin who appeared at the door with a helpless expression.

Wang Guilin was a little embarrassed, “There was a problem with the negotiation with Pakistan. You raised the threshold fee of 50 million U.S. dollars. You don’t have time to tell us in detail. I can only disturb you.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“What did the Pakistani do?” When Xie Kai heard that there was a problem with the tank project, he was a little anxious, turned around and picked up his clothes and walked with Wang Guilin.

“Didn’t you say that the cost per vehicle was about US$2.5 million? They are now talking about this. With the subsequent R&D investment, it’s only US$50 million, and the technical cost of their 300 vehicles is also US$3.3 million. It’s gone…” Wang Guilin told Xie Kai the matter.

“That’s not the calculation.” Xie Kai rolled his eyes and said, “Their money, but the cost of using our technologies…”

“Tell me it’s useless. If you don’t persuade Pakistan, this project will cause problems. At that time, we will invest our own money to find customers. It will be even more troublesome.” Wang Guilin is eager to let Pakistanis invest 500 million in this.

But it has to be in line with the actual situation.

Negotiations between the two parties were never easy. He didn’t think that the other party would not lower the price, so he signed the contract as required and then gave the money.

If this is the case, international cooperation does not require years of arduous negotiations and may not necessarily achieve results.

Xie Kai nodded, thinking about whether the previous reason was sufficient.

When we arrived at the negotiation site in the conference room, the two parties were chatting very casually, and the tense situation Xie Kai imagined did not appear.

“Are you here? It just so happens. You explain to them about the $50 million technology usage fee. Otherwise, they think we have cheated them.” Zheng Yucheng saw Xie Kai coming, and he immediately felt confident.

In the morning, Xie Kai proposed 50 million U.S. dollars for technology usage fees. Before he had time to inquire about the specifics, the Pakistanis started negotiations in the evening regardless of time.

Xie Kai looked at Katchhead and the others for a long time before speaking, “This fifty million dollars is not just the cost of the 359 project. It is inappropriate to spread all the costs on these tanks.”

“Don’t count the cost like this, you tell us how to dilute the cost of 50 million? This is the cost we must pay for cooperating with you…” Catchhead looked at Xie Kai with a cold smile on his face.

There was no formal negotiation before, so there was no refutation too much.

If the formal negotiations are not brought forward, they will be slaughtered as fat sheep.

“The cooperation between our two parties is based on mutual benefit and win-win cooperation.” Xie Kai smiled, and did not care about Katchhead’s doubts, “Project cooperation, tank assembly technology is jointly owned by both parties, but before we You know the technologies developed, and you know that it is impossible to get them for $50 million.”

“We are talking about the cost issue.” Mubara reminded Xie Kai not to change the subject.

When Xie Kai said this, he clearly wanted to change the subject and change the subject.

“Yes, it means cost. Internationally, can the technology of Chobham armor be bought for US$50 million? Can a new type of gun steel that can effectively increase the service life of tank gun barrels be bought for US$50 million? Kai asked Katchhead.

Katchhead shook his head, “I can’t buy it, but it doesn’t affect cost dilution.”

“The cost is diluted. You are based on 300 vehicles. What if there are more than 300 vehicles?” Xie Kai doesn’t believe that Pakistan will think that this tank will only produce 300 vehicles.

This is the Xiaolong fighter cooperation model adopted. There is no problem at all. The only thing is that the US$50 million technology usage fee is indeed a bit tricky.

“I explained before that the US$50 million includes the use of a full set of technology. We provide you with the new type of gun steel, and you can use this material to cast the barrels of other tanks in your country. The service life is Even if it is only doubled, how much money will be saved every year? Chobham armor is used on other tanks, and the command ceremonial fire control system is used to improve the tanks in active service. This will greatly improve the performance of your tanks. It turned out to be a good reason.

“It’s just a possibility.” Katchhead said, “we don’t have a need for this.”

Knowing what Xie Kai is telling, I plan to replace those domestic tanks with tank guns made of new gun steel when I go back. I will never admit it at this moment.

Fifty million dollars.

“The output is more than 300 vehicles at all. Only Iran and Iraq, if we sell, their demand far exceeds this amount.” Xie Kai said.

“The Iraqis are not interested in our tanks, and Iran is not having a good relationship with us now.” Mubara had no idea that this kid would know what they were thinking.

It’s just that the Iraqis are unwilling to invest when they don’t see the samples to help them share the risk.

Selling to Iran must not be done with fanfare.

“Based on your relationship with the Arab world in the Middle East, you have three generations of tank production technology, will they not purchase it?” Xie Kai said.

Katchhead shook his head. “What you said is only a possibility. It is also possible that your military will not use this kind of tank for the 300 vehicles that we use ourselves.”

Pakistanis think this is a complete trifle, not a serious negotiating occasion at all.

The other party actually entrusted such a serious matter to a child.

And this kid is totally funny now.

“If you feel that this cooperation model is not good, we can change to another model. You provide a fund, the technology is unique to our family, we provide production licenses and key components, and you will assemble them with all your heart…” Zheng Yucheng He said, “Or you place an order, and we develop and produce in accordance with your requirements. In this way, you will not need to bear the costs and risks in this respect at all.”

“No, we prefer this cooperation model, but the price you proposed is too high.” Mubara said firmly. “The win-win situation you said at the beginning does not seem to be a win-win situation for both parties.”

“What do you think is the price?” Zheng Yucheng asked before Xie Kai could speak.

As soon as he came up with this question, both Long Yaohua and Li Mingshan shook their heads and sighed, and Xie Kai smiled bitterly.

Pakistanis are waiting for this sentence.

If the prospects are not visible, they will not insist on this cooperation model at all.

Zheng Yucheng is not eager to obtain this funding from Pakistan, and even for cooperation, he does not think it is necessary.



“Ten million dollars,” Katchhead said calmly.
