Chapter 823 The MPC-75 project is in trouble
"Who are you……"
Diego has traveled all over the years and has never seen Chinese people in Europe. Looking at the face of the Chinese in front of him, he immediately understood who the young Asian face was, and nodded and said, "That Chinese rich man who came to Argentina to invest?"
"It's me." Chen Geng smiled very gently. Looking closely, Comrade Lao Ma is worthy of being an idol of almost all Argentinians. Although he was wearing handcuffs, the police car he was riding in was definitely the most comfortable police car in the entire Buenos Aires police station. The two policemen on the left and right seemed to be watching the prisoner, but more like they were protecting their idols.
"I really didn't expect that we would meet in this situation," he shook his handcuffs at Chen Geng. Even though Comrade Lao Ma was thick-skinned enough, he felt a little embarrassed: "I'm very happy that you came to see me. I originally hoped to have a better mental state to meet you..."
I understand!
Chen Geng was amused and cried and found that if Maradona hadn't lie, he was taking drugs to meet him!
Although Chen Geng dared to bet with anyone that the main reason for this guy to take drugs is that he is addicted to drugs, Chen Geng also believes that Lao Ma's words are a little credible: after completing a suck, the person who absorbs drugs is indeed very excited.
"This is indeed a regrettable thing," nodded, and Chen Geng whispered: "But it doesn't matter. I just communicated with Director Brech. Your problem is not very serious. You can be released on bail as long as you pay bail."
"I know," Lao Ma nodded carelessly. Obviously, this situation is not the first time he has encountered this situation. He has not been panicked at all after being caught by the police. He is still in a mood to grin at Chen Geng: "Don't worry, my lawyer will help me with everything. He is a great guy. If you don't mind, you can come to my house to have a drink tomorrow night. I will treat you with the most enthusiastic Argentine girl."
Lao Ma is quite confident in his lawyer's abilities and firmly believes that he will be able to go home tomorrow.
Chen Geng also believed that this was not a problem for Lao Ma, it was nothing more than a matter that could be solved by paying bail. For ordinary people, this problem may be very serious, but for Lao Ma, who is in high reputation, is he short of money? With Lao Ma's wealth, will his lawyer be a mediocre person? He agreed happily: "Okay, see you tomorrow."
………………………………………
On the way back, Chen Geng was not in a good mood. When he received a call from Wolfgang Meidong, vice president of Mbb Company, he felt even worse...
"Chen, there was a little accident on our plane..." Wolfgang Metung's tone was very heavy on the phone.
Hearing this, Chen Geng's heart immediately sank. Although he didn't know what was going on, he knew that what he was going to say was absolutely small. Chen Geng said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
"The long-term low-interest loan given to us by the federal government..." Wolfgang Metung said in a deep voice: "Now something goes wrong, maybe it's impossible to approve it on time..."
Chen Geng's brows frowned suddenly!
According to the contract signed with Mbb Company, after the mpc-75 project was officially launched, the German government will provide a long-term low-interest loan of at least US$400 million to the newly established mpc company. This is also recognized by the Federal German government, but now, is the loan a little wrong?
"What's going on?" Chen Geng asked in a deep voice.
"It's not very certain, but we've got the claim that the federal government needs more money to develop the East German economy..."
"Shit!" Before Wolfgang Meidong finished speaking, Chen Geng cursed fiercely. After a pause, he cursed fiercely: "This is all a fucking excuse!"
"Yes, this is the excuse." Wolfgang Metung said gritting his teeth.
Last fall, the East and West Germany officially achieved unity, which could be regarded as fulfilling the wishes of several generations of Germany. This is of course a happy thing: the country has been unified. With the help of West Germany, that is, the more developed federal Germany, the economy of East Germany, which is relatively weak in economic development, will definitely develop rapidly, which is much better than in the Soviet era.
But in fact, that's not the case at all.
Why is it not so? Because as early as last year, the West German government officially issued the West German mark to the East German region. This action seems to be fine, but a very simple fact is that the West German mark is 4 to 6 times better than the East German mark. Is it really appropriate to use the West Mark to exchange blood for East German? It's like using a completely different blood type to perform a whole body major blood exchange. If there is no problem, it would be a hell.
And if nothing unexpected happens, after West Germany forced its "blood" into East Germany's "blood vessels", East Germany's economy immediately ushered in a catastrophe. The little wealth that East Germany had finally accumulated over decades was completely destroyed after West Germany's forced entry. All this was actually a long-planned conspiracy!
West Germany, or the capitalist world led by the United States, did not give East Germany an economic running-in period, giving East Germany enterprises time and space to transform and transform themselves. Almost overnight, a socialist country no longer existed, and all East German enterprises suddenly had to face international competition independently. Where will their future go, the Berlin General Administration of the German State-owned Assets Trust Bureau.
As early as the late 1980s, major investors in West Germany and even Europe, which had begun to brew this feast, had greeted the trusteeship bureau. They sharpened their knives and prepared this feast carnival. More than 8,000 large and small East Germany were instantly privatized. There has never been so many companies in history privatized at the same time. The unification of the two Germans actually turned into an anti-industrialization movement, which means that all industries and economies in East Germany were destroyed in an instant.
The countless capitalists, merchants, large enterprises and consortiums who accompanied West German into East Germany almost burst into fat overnight, so that several years later, German MP Wernehulz of the EU Parliament recalled the practices of certain enterprises, certain consortiums and the actions of the Kohl government, and said indignantly: "This (the economic policy after the merger of the two Germans) is actually the biggest economic scam in German history."
After all, mbb company is one of the largest companies in West Germany. Of course, he knew what the extremely high-end economic activity of "helping East Germany's relatives develop" promoted by the Cole government. At this time, mbb company received a notice from the federal government, saying that the government's previously promised low-interest loans need to be reviewed because they want to help East Germany develop, and fools can also know that there is something wrong with this.
Knowing that being angry would not help, Chen Geng calmed down as quickly as possible: "What the hell is going on? What did Minister Altmeier say?"
"Airbus!" Speaking of this name, Wolfgang Metung on the phone gritted his teeth: "All this is Airbus' conspiracy!"
Airbus? Chen Geng frowned when he heard this. He originally thought that Boeing was more likely to make trouble behind the scenes. Whether it was Boeing's market position or the United States' "society country", no matter how you look at it, this "bad guy" should be Boeing, but he didn't expect it to be Airbus?
"Are you sure?" Chen Geng asked: "Why is it Airbus, not Boeing?"
"Because Airbus executives have come to us before, they hope that Mbb will continue to appear as the Airbus Group spare parts supplier," said Wolfgang Meidong, shocked Chen Geng: "In return for Mbb, if Mbb agrees to their conditions, they will increase the contract to Mbb."
Understood!
Although it feels a bit difficult to accept, but if you think about it carefully, there is nothing unacceptable. Although Airbus is the second largest civil aircraft manufacturing company in the world after Boeing, it has been losing money since its establishment. Seeing that with the rapid development of China's economy, the Chinese demand for large civil aircraft will increase rapidly. The Chinese market will become a life-saving straw for Airbus to get rid of this embarrassing situation. At this time, mbb and the Chinese reached a cooperation agreement...
In the future, after the mpc-75-100 and mpc-75-200 are put into production, the direct threat will be that Airbus' a320 will be sold for every mpc-75. If you sell one more mpc-75, Airbus' a320 will be sold less... If you lose this way, when will it be the end? Several major shareholders of Airbus are really overwhelmed. At this time, suppressing the mpc-75 project and allowing mpc-75 Airbus to free up market space, it becomes a natural choice.
Chen Geng frowned. After a long time, he asked Wolfgang Meidong in a deep voice: "So...what does mbb mean? Are you going to give up, or are you going to grit your teeth and persevere?"
"Of course we have to stick with it!" Wolfgang Metung almost jumped up: "Chan, you have to know that we are all about to manufacture the prototype, and the mbb has already suppressed everything about ourselves! We will never succumb to the pressure of Airbus, but..."
Speaking of this, his voice suddenly became weaker: "Without the long-term loan provided by the federal government, our funds would not be enough to support the project to continue..."
I knew it was this!
