A large order was snatched away by Xia Yang.

Damon and the other five were all angry and unwilling to give in, but there was nothing they could do to deal with Xia Yang. Hard work would definitely not work. They had tried it before and Boss Xia was too cruel.

From the initial trap in the Angola gold mine to the attack on the secret base in Xiayang, Africa, how many lives were taken.

But they didn't get the slightest advantage.

In the end, Lawrence was killed and the missile tip technology was used as compensation, and the conflict ended.

The only thing that comforted the five Dimons was that Xia Yang's factory had limited production capacity, and it would take almost two years to complete the $80 billion order.

In other words, an average of 40 billion US dollars per year.

Excluding Kuwait due to the war crisis, this sudden large-scale purchase order exceeded 40 billion.

This is equivalent to US$20 billion in export orders per year.

Not too much.

Compared to the global arms market of US$200-300 billion per year, it is nothing.

As for orders worth US$20 billion, none of the five Dimons need to go abroad to find customers, they can get them in the United States.

There is no way, the United States is the world's largest arms customer.

The reason why Xia Yang established Lishen Company in the United States early was because he wanted to get orders from the United States.

However, this is Li Ao's first trade fair, and Xia Yang has already received so many orders. If the product quality is stable, future orders will definitely increase.

Realizing this, Damon and the other five became worried again.

"Let's cooperate. Contact President Xia to form an alliance and work together to compress orders from other companies."

Damon reluctantly opened his mouth to make suggestions.

There is no way, the two sides cannot fight each other. If they compete with each other, they will only benefit others and suffer losses for themselves. Then the only option left is to form an alliance with Xia Yang and snatch orders from other arms companies in the arms market.

As for the current global arms market structure, the United States still accounts for the majority, accounting for about 30%, and the rest is occupied by Russia, England, France, Germany and other countries.

So the market is big enough for everyone to share.

Beating each other's heads to pieces or sharing the meat together is an easy choice.

The four Moores all nodded, thinking that Damon's proposal was feasible.

But Thompson raised another question.

"President Xia won't agree easily, will he?"

Thompson makes key points.

Indeed, Xia Yang is not a fool.

Alliance cooperation is not that simple.

At least one thing is that Xia Yang cannot steal customers at low prices.

But Dimon had already thought of a way, "President Xia is very interested in space shuttle technology!"

Obviously Dimon wanted to exchange the cutting-edge technology of the space shuttle with Xia Yang to form an alliance and cooperate.

But the four Thompsons did not express too much dissatisfaction.

If you pay, you will be rewarded. If you don’t pay, you will get benefits. If you dream, no one is a fool.

What's more, the space shuttle technology is not given away for free, or it must be exchanged for the same top-notch technology, or it must be purchased with huge sums of money.

"Okay, let Xia Yang bring out the motion capture technology in exchange."

Thompson immediately proposed an exchange and coveted Xia Yang's motion capture technology.

Damon shook his head, "It's unlikely. Motion capture technology is the biggest advantage of Xiayang's products. It's impossible for him to trade this technology."

Indeed, it is precisely because Predator fighter jets, Dragonfly armed helicopters and other products are equipped with advanced motion capture systems, with excellent performance and high hit rate, that Xia Yang was able to receive so many orders after the exhibition.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Xia Yang to exchange motion capture technology and do something stupid like cutting off his own arm.

"In this way, both second-generation troll engine technology and nuclear energy miniaturization technology can be used."

Moore suggested, taking a step back.

However, Damon still shook his head, "Don't forget, we are asking for help this time. Xia Yang does not have to agree to the technology exchange and is only willing to spend money to purchase space shuttle technology, so we must be prepared for the worst."

Damon's words immediately made the four Thompsons sober.

Indeed, now they are asking Xia Yang to form an alliance. If Xia Yang feels that there is no advantage to be taken, he can refuse the alliance.

"Okay, let's take a step back. If Xia Yang doesn't agree to the technology exchange, he can spend money to purchase space shuttle technology."

The four Moores all nodded and agreed that in order to form an alliance and cooperate with Xia Yang, they could sell the space shuttle technology.

This is a huge concession. Usually, no matter how much money you pay for top-end technology, no one will sell it.

Because they recognized Xia Yang's R&D capabilities and wanted to cooperate with Xia Yang Alliance, this time Dimon and others considered selling the space shuttle technology to Xia Yang.

Seeing that the four Moores clearly realized that they were in a passive position, Damon nodded, "Only in this way can I be sure to convince Xia Yang to cooperate. I was the one who proposed the cooperation, so I'd better go there this time."

Maybe it's the same thing that happens twice. Last time, Damon went to Spur to discuss with Xia Yang, and it's the same thing this time.

Now the relationship between the two parties is not as tense as before, so there is no need to find an intermediary to pass the message.

Damon called Xia Yang directly to make an appointment.

The next day, I took a private plane to Spur, and the agreed place was Spur.

Xia Yang was not surprised at all by Damon and others' request for cooperation. They were all talented people and naturally chose the most advantageous side.

It is undoubtedly the most advantageous for the two parties to cooperate in an alliance and not compete viciously with each other. It is undoubtedly the most beneficial for Yizhi to target other arms companies.

In addition, the most important thing is that Xia Yang doesn't like to be the first to make a fortune by hiding in the background.

To put it bluntly, seizing most of the arms market and ranking first in arms sales in the world are meaningless except attracting attention and becoming a thorn in the eyes of countless people.

Of course, in order for him to agree to cooperate, Damon and others must offer enough benefits.

Spa Club.

The Eight-Eyed Trident luxury car drove into the Spur Club under the guidance of the manager himself.

Dimon has arrived, and just like last time, he still takes George, the most outstanding junior of the Morgan Stanley Consortium, with him.

They are both busy people, and besides, the two parties are not friends, they are just doing it for profit.

So after Xia Yang and Dameng met, they simply shook hands.

After sitting down, Xia Yang didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, "I'm not opposed to cooperation, but what benefits can I get?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xia Yang asked Damon with a smile, very directly.

It's not that he's asking for cooperation, it's that Damon and others are begging him to cooperate, so they must show some sincerity.

Dimon suppressed his inner frustration and said, "For the space shuttle technology you wanted last time, you can exchange technology for technology with second-generation troll engine technology or nuclear energy miniaturization technology."

Phew, Xia Yang laughed out loud immediately, technology was exchanged for technology, this was a fair trade, so what was his benefit?

"Diamond, don't waste everyone's time. What I want is benefits, not a technology-for-technology deal. With Li Ao's technical strength and space shuttle technology, it can be developed. It will take a while at most, so I want to be real.

The benefits, don’t forget that you took the initiative to seek cooperation with me, not me seeking cooperation with you.”

Xia Yang reminded Damon not to forget the positions of both parties.

Dai Meng looked dissatisfied, but he was not surprised. He had considered Xia Yang's difficulty before coming.

"Okay, for two billion U.S. dollars, we will package and sell you the complete set of technology for the space shuttle. This is the lowest price. You should know that the cost of building a space shuttle is as high as $2.5 billion. It is very difficult to get the full set of technology for two billion U.S. dollars.

What a deal!”

Dimon quoted the price.

Of course Xia Yang knew the value of space shuttle technology, otherwise he wouldn't be so greedy.

But when the seller makes an offer, the buyer will naturally make a counter-offer.

"Five hundred million US dollars." Xia Yang cut off three-quarters of it with one knife.

Dimon's expression remained unchanged, "1.8 billion U.S. dollars, this is my base price."

"Six hundred million U.S. dollars." Xia Yang added an additional 100 million U.S. dollars.

"It seems we have nothing to talk about."

With that said, Damon stood up, as if he was trying to break up the conversation.

Xia Yang couldn't see that Dimon was just pretending, but he also stood up and said, "Dimon, everyone's time is precious. Seventy million US dollars is my final offer. In addition, I can promise that you will not sell the aerospace technology if you buy it."

.”

"Not for sale to the outside world, including the capital of Spur?"

Damon is a little loose.

"Of course." Xia Yang affirmed.

Of course the capital of Spur wants space shuttle technology, but it doesn't matter whether the capital of Spur can afford it. Even if it can afford it, it doesn't have the guts to enter this field.

Think about how much money the U.S. Apollo space program burned.

In fact, without the ballast stone of Ed, Xia Yang would not dare to enter the space shuttle field, because it would be too expensive.

"make a deal."

Di Meng and Xia Yang shook hands to seal the deal.

In the end, Xia Yang obtained the complete set of space shuttle technology with $700 million and the condition of not selling it to outsiders. At the same time, he also reached an alliance with five military companies including Lockheed Martin to compete with other military companies.

After the deal was reached, both parties had nothing to talk about and left the Spur Club.

The rest will naturally be left to the people below.

Back in the car, Xia Yang told Ed about the purchase of the space shuttle technology and asked him to send someone to the United States to inspect and hand over the goods.
