The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master.

You can't blame Chang Haonan for making a fuss.

If there is any difference between this current timeline and the previous life, it is that there is an extra variable like himself.

But no matter how strong the butterfly effect is, it still has to have some basic logical relationship.

Chang Haonan just ran through in his mind a few...a dozen major things he had done since his rebirth, and he really didn't find any that would affect the rhythm of Ermao's sale of aircraft carriers.

However, while he was brainstorming, Wu Yifan shook his head:

"That's not possible. Ermao's company quoted US$2000 million for this ship last year, and then they said it would be auctioned. We couldn't raise that much money at first, but then we raised enough money, and we couldn't improvise what we needed for the auction. Documentation and materials, I had to give up.”

"That's right..."

Chang Haonan's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, the less deviation there is from this happening, the better for him.

Although sooner or later it will enter a completely different timeline from the previous life, the core point of difference will appear only one day later.

If nothing else, it will have to wait until after September 2001, 9.

But then, Wu Yifan changed the subject:

"But the person who bought the aircraft carrier in the end was a friend of my partner, so... it's actually pretty much the same. We also know most of the things in the whole process."

"But this can't be considered your channel, right?"

Although Chang Haonan has a good relationship with the other party, when it comes to such a big job, business matters must be dealt with.

Otherwise, you will not only harm yourself, but also harm the other party to a certain extent.

"Just hear me out."

Wu Yifan swallowed the piece of fried pork in his mouth and continued:

"When bidding, you need to state the purpose of the purchase. The person said that he wanted to take it home and park it at the beach as a tourist attraction, just like he bought the Minsk before."

"But we knew at that time that this must be pure nonsense. The Minsk could only be used as a theme park after we bought it because it had been in service for more than 20 years at that time and was in disrepair. Before we got it, it was still It was destructively demolished by the Koreans and has no other value at all."

"The Varyag does not have this problem. The entire ship is about 60% complete, and apart from being soaked in the water for a few years, it is basically a semi-finished new ship. As long as the equipment is reinstalled and refurbished, it can be directly It can be used as a serious aircraft carrier..."

Listening to the other party's analysis, Chang Haonan remained silent, but still nodded in agreement.

This does not require him, a reborn person, to look at this with hindsight.

Even at this time, everyone agreed that the Varyag would definitely be rebuilt sooner or later after it was bought.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many obstacles in the middle.

When I bought the Melbourne and the other two Type 1143s, there were no such mistakes.

Old Wu opposite took a sip of mutton soup, then raised his head again:

"Since we are building an aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier is not just a simple ship."

"So, after we found that it was too late to prepare for bidding, we focused on other supporting items."

Hearing this, Chang Haonan did feel a little overjoyed.

As Wu Yifan just said, as a systematic project, the aircraft carrier involves a vast amount of content.

Not only technical, but also training and usage.

In most countries, even if they pick up one for free, they will not be able to use it or use it well.

Although Chang Haonan has been expanding his research scope over the years, he still started out as an aviation major and knows very little about the shipbuilding field. Even if he is currently studying, he has some serious skills.

As for carrier aviation command...

That would be even more of a layman among laymen.

And not even the system can do anything about it.

Therefore, if we can get the support of experienced technical personnel from Ermao in this regard, it will undoubtedly play a huge role in promoting China's aircraft carrier business.

However, now he is a little bit indifferent to emotions and anger, so he does not write his excitement on his face. Instead, he takes a bite of food to calm down, and then asks:

"What exactly are they?"

"Then...that's a lot to talk about."

Lao Wu raised his head slightly, made a thinking gesture, stretched out his fingers and began to take inventory one by one:

"For example, although the Azov Steel Plant is not specialized in making marine steel, it can also produce a considerable part of the high-grade steel required by aircraft carriers, and it also maintains some technical information related to post-processing and welding processes..."

"Several An-71 early warning aircraft produced by the Antonov Group are said to be able to take off from the ski jump deck. I don't know whether this is possible, but it should be difficult to park in the hangar. However, if the country finds it useful, It will definitely be no problem to package the prototype and technical information back..."

"As well as the Black Sea Shipyard itself, there have been no orders in recent years. I used to have some scattered orders for small barges and fishing boats, which barely stabilized the overall situation there. If you need talents in this area, then it is best to I better take action quickly, otherwise I will probably be poached by Europe and the United States sooner or later..."

"The other is a carrier-based aircraft training facility. They seem to be called Nitka. They build something similar to the deck of an aircraft carrier on the ground to allow pilots and commanders to conduct simulated training..."

Wu Yifan frowned, obviously racking his brains and trying to describe it in the most vivid way possible.

After all, for people who have never seen it, it is really difficult to imagine what the Nitka base looks like.

But Chang Haonan naturally saw this thing on the Internet later, so he interrupted the other party directly:

"It doesn't matter. I happened to have seen the information on that thing. Just go on."

After hearing this, Lao Wu nodded and skipped the explanation part:

"In short, although the thing is used by Da Mao, it is under the control of Er Mao after all, so we can send people in the name of visiting, and they can go in and take a look at it as long as they pay money."

"Also, a fixed facility in Nitka cannot be moved. However, the person in charge of that base has a good relationship with me and said that all their technical information, including the base itself and related to carrier-based aircraft training, can be transferred to one place. And package it, make a copy and sell it to us, but the asking price is a bit high, 800 million U.S. dollars, which is almost half of that aircraft carrier."

For a businessman like him, just ordering copies of documents and selling them for 800 million is really a shame compared to buying a boat.

But Chang Haonan knows that if you really want to say it, the 800 million may be more cost-effective...

And if the things mentioned above can really be obtained over there, the faster the cooperation between the two parties, the better.

In fact, he didn't doubt it.

First, it is a lifetime of trust in Wu Yifan as a person.

More importantly, many of the details the other party said are still not public in this era.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be impossible to know.

Therefore, he did not hesitate for too long:

"These channels are indeed quite valuable. When I go back, I will make a report with the superiors to see how we can work out a specific method of cooperation."

"But now that the New Year has passed, it will take until after the New Year to wait for the formalities and so on, but these things cannot be postponed, especially the technical staff of the Black Sea Shipyard and the relevant information of the Nitka training facility. You guys have to take it down as quickly as possible, otherwise I'm afraid something will change when the aircraft carrier ships it back."

Wu Yifan's eyes lit up after hearing the first half of the sentence, but the second half made him hesitate a little:

"Brother Nan, let me tell you everything. If this company belongs to me, then I will be fine with your words."

"But now I still have a partner. According to Nitka's information, the asking price is 800 million US dollars. If we find another place to hire employees from the Black Sea Shipyard together, then including all kinds of management, the cost will be US dollars." Four to five million US dollars, if you want to advance it directly..."

Chang Haonan naturally understood what the other party meant.

The brother still has to settle the accounts clearly, and no matter how much he says, he can't let others risk eight-digit dollars with just a word.

"As for money, we can't directly inject capital into you, at least not until you get your things back, otherwise something will definitely go wrong."

"However, we can sign a few labor contracts first. The content is that you will act as an agent to hire a group of 20-cent engineers and be responsible for bringing them back to the country. In this way, we will pay you part of the advance payment first, and with the contract written in black and white, it can be regarded as How about reducing some of your risks?”

Having said this, Wu Yifan could not make any additional requests.

After all, this kind of business involves asking officials to endorse you. If you don’t want to do it, others will do it, and it’s impossible to do it without taking any risks.

So, he nodded decisively:

"Okay, then after I go back today, I will contact Ermao and let them start preparations!"
