Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 1203

“Saudi Arabia’s purchase of tanks must be due to changes in the situation in the Middle East. Otherwise, even if they buy it, they will not be so fast, and they will choose American tanks.” According to Xie Kai, Saudi Arabia is equipped with more than 400 M60A3s. It is American.

According to normal circumstances, Saudi Arabia should buy it from the United States.

But now I am looking for Pakistan to buy the 359, and also proposed to buy an upgraded version. On the one hand, Saudi Arabia wants to get their religious brothers a hand, on the other hand, the problem may lie in the United States.

Even the simplified version that was later exported on a large scale was not sold.

Xie Kai believes that Saudi Arabia wants to buy. Another reason is that it hasn’t been long since the Gulf War broke out.

In addition to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia is Iraq’s largest borrower in the Iran-Iraq War. The silly Damu owes them more money than Kuwait.

There should have been signs of silly Damu wanting to fall behind.

It is very likely that the two sides are reducing oil production in order to increase international oil prices and increase profits in the negotiations.

The silly damu wants to use arms to fall back on his debts, and Saudi Arabia is most worried about.

Otherwise, in the world of Xie Kai, the silly damu invaded Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia is the most worried. As soon as Saudi Arabia is worried, it asks the U.S. military that has signed a defense agreement with them to protect them…

“Let’s understand the situation there first.” Zheng Yucheng thinks that this is unlikely, and it may even be because Pakistan wants technology itself. “Regarding Argentina. What do you think? Not cooperating is troublesome. It is said that this will easily have a great impact on China-Arab relations…”

Once diplomacy is involved, there is nothing trivial.

“…” Xie Kai could only be silent.

What can he do about this kind of thing?

“Let’s talk about it first to determine what they need.” Zheng Yucheng understands Xie Kai’s thoughts, but the above is all involved, and it is not a matter to continue. It’s not a good thing if this is too much trouble. “It really doesn’t work, I will find funds from above when the time comes.”

The above request for cooperation, 404 has no money, they don’t give money, who can’t blame it?

No one can do it without money.

“They are willing to pay? I think it’s hanging!” Xie Kai pouted.

The military itself is too short of money.

Even the government would not approve such a huge loan.

Two billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to eight billion yuan.

In the end, Xie Kai still did not refuse to communicate with General Carlos and others.

“Thank you, we don’t think it is a problem with your proposal that the total amount must reach 2 billion US dollars…” Carlos looked at Xie Kai, still a little bit embarrassed.

Tell Xie Kai that they agree to a minimum cooperation amount of 2 billion U.S. dollars.

Xie Kai was not happy, knowing what purpose the Argentine had.

These goods are completely itchy if there are too many lice, and there is no worries about debts.

MMP, the Argentine government owes almost US billion in international debt. Domestic inflation is even more unacceptably high.

Now I open my mouth to buy 2 billion US dollars in weapons and equipment, and I don’t even think about it.

“General, I don’t know what you need.” I thought that in my heart, but nothing showed on his face.

After experiencing a lot of things, naturally I will not be as immature as before, showing all my thoughts.

A typical heart MMP, with a grin on his face.

“For the tank cooperation project, we accept your proposal and your technical team will help us modify the design of the TAM tank. We will pay for the technical modification fee and the development fee. I don’t know the price…” Colonel Wallila asked Xie Kai.

“This kind of technology development is not difficult. In order to deepen our friendship, we only collected 80 million US dollars symbolically…” Xie Kai explained the price that he had considered before and discussed with Zheng Yucheng and others.

In order to obtain the production line and production technology of the 359 tanks, Egypt ordered 300 tanks from China and paid a total of 800 million U.S. dollars for the production line.

“What about the production line?” Valila knew that it was impossible to get the technology and production line provided by China for only US$80 million.

“The full set, plus technology development fees, totaling 300 million US dollars.” Xie Kai looked at the other’s mouth with a visibly trembling, and continued: “This includes chassis production, engine production technology, and production lines…”

The Argentine looked blank.

Didn’t I say that the core equipment such as the engine is provided by China?(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“After the cooperation agreement is reached, your country can independently produce all the core parts!” Xie Kai’s words excited the Argentines.

No wonder so many countries buy production lines from China!

China sells not only production lines, but also technology.

As long as they are familiar with it, they can independently develop and design their own next-generation main battle tanks by their own technicians!

The only bad thing is that a tank production line costs 300 million US dollars. Is the price too high?

“No price reduction. If you want to negotiate the price, our cooperation can’t continue.” Seeing that the other party wanted to bargain, Xie Kai ruthlessly asked them to take back the idea of ​​negotiating the price.

The 105mm rifled gun is not a big problem to sell an Argentine bought from the UK to recover the funds.

Anyway, this does not include the material formula?

“Well, we still need two aircraft carriers. Just the kind of design you provided to Thailand.” The Argentines are now completely rushing to make up the total of 2 billion US dollars.

They also don’t care if their country can afford two aircraft carriers, they just open their mouths to two.

Xie Kai frowned.

Do these bastards think they don’t need to spend money, the more they owe, the more China has to help them make more money?

“In addition. Two more supply ships produced by your country…” The Argentine continued to speak at this moment.

Xie Kai frowned even more.

The price of a 905 supply ship is not cheap anymore. The Thai navy didn’t purchase it because it was too expensive. Only Saudi Arabia bought it.

“What else?” Xie Kai suppressed his anger and asked, “We still have conventionally powered submarines, do we need it?”

The other party shook his head directly.

Argentina has conventionally powered submarines purchased from Germany. German submarine technology is much better than China’s. Even China’s conventionally powered submarines cannot match the performance of Argentina’s submarines.

Unless it is nuclear power.

Nuclear power is too expensive, even if Argentina buys it back, it will not be able to play with it.

They also know that it is impossible for China to provide them with nuclear submarines.

“The price of a medium-sized aircraft carrier is 430 million U.S. dollars, which does not include carrier-based fighter jets and weapon systems… Our aircraft carrier has a variety of weapon modules to choose from…” Xie Kai said calmly.

In this regard, he did not arbitrarily report prices.

Two will cost US$860 million, plus the Type 905 ocean-going supply ship, and one will have to sell them for US$70 million.

Here is one billion dollars.

The Argentines don’t care about billions of dollars. They have a Sheffield-class destroyer in China, plus a 209-class conventionally powered submarine purchased from Germany. Although this submarine has a small tonnage, it only has a displacement of more than 1,000 tons, and its length is less than that. 60 meters is relatively easy to use.

The escort fleet, they are basically not lacking.

“According to Thailand’s aircraft carrier.” General Carlos still said the same.

Not even talking about the price.

Compared with before, it seems that he is not alone at all.

“Two aircraft carriers, plus two ocean-going supply ships, count as $1 billion.” Xie Kai looked at each other and said slowly, “Adding the tank technology and the production line of $300 million, a total of $1.3 billion, the minimum contract The amount is still 700 million US dollars…”

The Argentine’s eyes widened.

Are Chinese weapons too cheap?

Two aircraft carriers, two ocean-going supply ships, only one billion US dollars?

Do you really want to purchase fighter jets from China?

China’s J-7 does not have too strong combat capability at all. What the Argentine Navy needs is, at least, that can achieve the performance of a super military standard.

Order another batch of frigates?

“We need heavy combat aircraft with a combat radius of 700 kilometers or more…” Carlos looked at Xie Kai and said, “If you have…”

The meaning is obvious.

It is not that we have no demand, but that China has given them too few choices.

The Chinese’s own J-8II fighters still need the Americans to help modify the design, and it has not been completely completed until now.

“Ultra-7B is currently in the prototype trial production stage. We have jointly designed and developed it with Pakistan…” Xie Kai is now completely arrogant not to regard Kazu as a god.

It’s just like the salesperson in the department store before, asking everything he didn’t care about, and didn’t have a enthusiastic service attitude at all.

“Still at the prototype stage? The first flight has not been completed?” The Argentine was speechless.

What if the development is unsuccessful?

“Super-7B is actually a dual-engine version of Super-7A, with more advanced performance…” Xie Kai only briefly introduced, “This type of fighter is about $22 million to $25 million. A production line can be provided, but the price of a complete production line is higher…”

The Argentine did not say anything.

No matter how stupid they are, they won’t even look at the fighter planes. If they don’t know the specific situation, they will place an order directly.

Otherwise, he will have to be killed.

The negotiations have reached a deadlock.

So, each went back to discuss.

Zheng Yucheng listened to Xie Kai’s report, and he was a little bit unbelievable. The Argentine actually ordered two ships without asking the specific parameters of the aircraft carrier? Is this a joke?

“Thanks, can we take a look at the specific situation of your country’s fighter jets? There are also aircraft carrier design plans and shipyards…” The Argentine finally proposed to look at the production plant.

Regarding the customer’s request, even if Xie Kai is reluctant, 404 cannot refuse it.

Even if a cooperation agreement cannot be reached in the end.

Xie Kai always had a negative attitude to contact with Argentines from the beginning, but it was because of Argentines.

“Thank you, your attitude towards Argentines is very different from your previous attitude towards customers. Can you tell me what is it for?” Ibrahim came to China again.

And this time, it seems that it was not to help Iraq purchase weapons, but because of Argentina?
