Chapter 477 Foreign trade model
"Forehead......"
"Oh, Xiao Lu, just tell me if you have any good ideas!" Seeing Lu Jiadong hesitating, Jiang Huichuan was a little anxious, and Tan Bin, who was standing aside, also looked at Lu Jiadong with encouragement:
"Xiao Lu, don't be afraid. If you have anything, just say it boldly. Lao Jiang and I are not outsiders, so what are you going to hesitate about?"
"This..." Lu Jiadong hesitated after hearing Tan Bin's words. In fact, he had already had a solution to the current problem in his mind, but Lu Jiadong could not understand whether the current environment would allow him to do so. After all, in terms of the control of weapons and equipment, Lu Jiadong was not the final decision, nor was the two leaders in front of him able to make the decision. Instead, higher-level senior management needed to make a decision...
"Xiao Lu, you are talking. I didn't see you so hesitant in front of the old leader. How long has it been since then? Why have you become so hesitant?"
"It's not that I'm hesitating, it's just..." Lu Jiadong said and paused again, and finally glanced at Tan Bin and Jiang Huichuan with a look of hope, and expressed his thoughts in his heart...
"What I'm worried about is that this Eagle Strike 8 missile is a new weapon and equipment that we have just developed and is about to be put into production. If it is put into the international arms market, will it be approved by the superior leadership department..."
What Lu Jiadong is worried about is not unreasonable. Although the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile is a "black man", the relevant technologies used in this missile are the cutting-edge technology for the development of anti-ship missiles in the world today. Because of this, at a time when the confidentiality system is relatively strict, there are too many unknown factors left for the export prospects of this anti-ship missile that is still in a confidential state.
The situation in front of him seemed to confirm Lu Jiadong's guess. Just after Lu Jiadong finished speaking, Tan Bin frowned tightly, and Jiang Huichuan even put his hands on his chin and pondered. It seemed to be a response to Lu Jiadong's concern. However, after a moment of silence, the two looked at each other tacitly, and then laughed loudly:
"Two leaders, you guys are..."
"We have nothing, but we just didn't expect that we would go together!" Looking at Lu Jiadong's somewhat puzzled expression, Tan Bin quickly explained:
"But, Lao Jiang and I are just the opposite of you. We are afraid that this missile, which is a 'black household' in China, will be no one in the world to recognize it!"
"Yes, it's a brand new missile after all. Besides, we have no similar records of export of weapons and equipment before. In addition, some tinted glasses in the international world, we think this missile should be difficult to sell, so we didn't mention it to you, Xiao Lu, and you didn't expect it, you said it first!"
Jiang Huichuan smiled happier than ever, and in fact what he said was the truth. On the way to Wanshan Factory, he and Tan Bin had indeed discussed the export of the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile. Putting aside the confidentiality and approval from senior management, the two also felt that the sale of this missile was very difficult.
In any case, the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile is a new type of missile that has just been developed. Its target-setting test has not been done yet and the sample bomb has not been produced. In this case, it is impossible to afford it in the international arms market that focuses on effectiveness, not to mention that China has no precedent for reference in this regard.
In addition, this type of high-performance weaponry and equipment has always been monopolized by developed Western countries. It is no longer difficult to sell it, but an unrealistic fantasy, so the two discussed it and gave up. However, they did not expect that Lu Jiadong's idea was coincidental with them at this moment. This made Jiang Huichuan and Tan Bin happy, and also saw a faint hope:
"And, from what Xiao Lu said just now, it seems that this Eagle Strike No. 8 missile does not have the sales issues that Lao Jiang and I are worried about..."
"I think it shouldn't exist!" Lu Jiadong nodded firmly at Tan Bin, but then frowned: "It's just..."
"I know what you mean!" Before Lu Jiadong finished speaking, Tan Bin said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. Just before coming here for investigation, Lao Jiang and I had just attended the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission, and also gave the latest instructions on the development of military industry. In principle, we can promote the development and development of our equipment through foreign trade models, otherwise Lao Jiang and I would not think about this aspect!"
"Yes! The senior management is indeed far-sighted in this regard, but it's not easy to be the first person to eat crabs. But if you, Xiao Lu, you, the God of Wealth, guarantee it, not to mention one crab, it's not a problem to have ten or twenty!"
Listening to Tan Bin and Jiang Huichuan, Lu Jiadong remembered that when he was in school in the future, the professors and tutors in the classroom had said more than once the so-called "foreign trade models" mainly relying on foreign arms sales to maintain the development and promotion of advanced military technology.
Advanced weapons and equipment such as the 155mm self-propelled artillery, Dongfeng 15 ballistic missile, long-range rocket launcher and other equipment equipped by our army were developed and developed under the name of "foreign trade models". However, for some reason, I didn't even think about it at the first time. It seems that carrying out the development and production of two equipment at the same time really made me feel a little busy!
"The senior management is really far-sighted. A 'foreign trade model' model, I don't know how many problems we have solved!"
"The senior management is far-sighted, but he didn't learn from you, Xiao Lu?"
"What? I learned from me?" Lu Jiadong was really confused this time, and looked at Tan Bin with a puzzled look. Tan Bin couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw Lu Jiadong's appearance:
"Why isn't it? Isn't the new tank project a typical foreign trade model? There is also the 'Chief' mk-5 tank spare parts produced by the Northern Factory for Iran, which is also a foreign trade model? You know, since the new production line of the Northern Factory was completed, senior leaders have visited more than once, and even the old leader has been to the old man twice. That is, the Wanshan Factory is too far away, and he is inconvenient, otherwise, he will come to your Xiaolu for tea early!"
As soon as Tan Bin finished speaking, Jiang Huichuan nodded from the side and echoed: "No, when I attended the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission, several senior leaders were saying, Xiao Lu, your solution is a new way for our military industry development, but the country can only provide policies, and whether it can be successful depends on personal ability. However, our navy does not have such people, so Xiao Lu, you can't always favor one and the other, always help the big brothers of the army, forget our big brothers of the navy!"
"As long as there is a policy, it's fine!" At this time, Lu Jiadong, who put down a stone in his heart, finally showed a calm smile, and his tone of speaking was as firm as before:
"No matter what, the excellent performance of our Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile is there. As long as we have reasonable prices and clear goals, I think we will not find buyers in the international arms market!"
"With your little Lu's words, I feel relieved than anything you can take!" Jiang Huichuan smiled brighter. If it were another person, Jiang Huichuan would probably not even care about it, and would even scold him for bragging and playing the piano randomly. But Lu Jiadong is different. He is a famous God of Wealth in the military industry system. The weapons and equipment he brought out were sold abroad, and there is nothing that could not be sold. So after hearing Lu Jiadong's words, Jiang Huichuan was relieved by a hundred people!
Lu Jiadong didn't know that he had become the cute lucky cat in Jiang Huichuan's eyes, but even if he knew, it didn't matter. If you want to achieve the path of military overlords, being lucky cat is a trivial matter, and acting as a banknote harvester is Lu Jiadong's ultimate dream. So after listening to Jiang Huichuan's words, Lu Jiadong just smiled:
"Chief Jiang is really over-reward. I will do my best here. However, before that, I still wanted to make the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile accent. No matter what, this equipment is still a 'black household'. We have to give it a 'household account'!"
"Yes, yes, if the name is not right, the words are not right. It is time to correct the name..."
"In addition, Lao Tan, you can't stop placing your 500,000 because of this. You have to use both hands to sell things and appropriate funds. You have to be strong in both hands, so you can't be neglected!"
Tan Bin waved his hand helplessly: "You Lao Jiang has a strong theory, okay! OK! OK! The 500,000 promised to you will not be less than a point!"
"Is this an old comrade-in-arms!" Jiang Huichuan patted Tan Bin's shoulder and smiled brighter. As his laughter sounded, Lu Jiadong and Tan Bin also laughed happily......
Since the most important matter has been decided, the next investigation is like a quick look. In the evening of that day, Tan Bin and Jiang Huichuan left Wanshan Factory and returned to "Beijing" and "Beijing". Soon, the relevant report on the Eagle Strike 8 missile was submitted to the senior management. Not long after, a project approval document on the Eagle Strike 8 missile was officially included in the foreign trade model was in the form of an expedited telegram.
It was delivered to Lu Jiadong, and at the same time, there was also an invitation letter to participate in the exhibition at the Frankfurt Weapons and Equipment Expo in Germany, as well as a license order for the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile exhibition issued by Jiang Huichuan himself, which determined that the overseas exhibition name was c801 anti-ship missile!
Seeing this series of heavyweight documents, Liang Shouye, the chief designer of the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile, was in tears. Unexpectedly, "Xiao Erhei" who had been struggling for so many years not only settled and confirmed the model name, but also was about to go abroad to participate in international competition. All this came too quickly and suddenly, which made this old expert in his seventies adapt to it for a long time before he realized that all this was true.
However, compared with Liang Shouye's excitement and gratitude, the pressure on Lu Jiadong's shoulders is heavier. But no matter what, since he has embarked on this path, he must be determined:
"Are you ready?" Lu Jiadong extinguished the cigarette in his hand and asked the entourage behind him:
"It's ready!" Hu Qinghua replied on behalf of those people with an excited look on his face. After hearing this, Lu Jiadong nodded: "Go!"
Chapter completed!
