No one really knows how many steel products are in U.S. military warehouses. It's not that the management is chaotic, the main reason is that there are too many military bases. And every relocation is a waste, and everyone turns a blind eye to this; no one is too serious. Ian Wright understands that if you want to get more support from the Black Cloud Group, you must not be stingy in terms of material supply.
Therefore, not only did he greet the Secretary of Defense Weinberg, but also let the family insiders investigate clearly. In fact, Bao Zixuan also valued this, so he used the aircraft company to lure General Wright. Since it is difficult to maintain technology and production lines, how to maximize benefits has become a problem that needs to be considered.
If it does not agree to sell its technology and production lines to American companies, then Heiyun Group will not have a good time. The strength is still not enough, and it needs to be continuously strengthened.
The power and influence of the Wright family in the army is really not that great. In less than a day, the inventory of scrap steel was counted.
Scrap steel is just a name, for the US military with deep pockets, when has old products been used. I just want to give the public an explanation, the purpose is to let the public know. The U.S. military does business with the Black Cloud Group in exchange for outdated products and obsolete materials; not a penny of taxpayers is used at all.
Scrap steel was exchanged for the most advanced technology and production lines; no matter how you looked at it, it was the Americans who took advantage.
In addition to leaving the necessary safety stock for emergencies; it can also take out a share of 34 million tons. What is this concept, equivalent to one year's steel production in China. It is only a part of the inventory of the US military; it shows the hard power of the US military.
If it is more aggressive, it is estimated that 50 million tons will not be a big problem. This is where the confidence lies. Ian Wright believes that with these Bao Zixuans, he will definitely be satisfied.
After sorting it out, General Wright came to the Black Cloud Group. If all goes well, you can end your trip to Hong Kong and return to the United States today. At this time, he couldn't wait. Whether the family can become the top giant in the United States depends on whether the negotiation can be successful. Although it is a bit unwilling to hand over the fate of one's own family to others, this may be a process that must be experienced in cooperation with the strong.
Bao Zixuan still greeted him personally, even if the contract was signed; many things still depended on the American general, so he still had to give enough face. The two exchanged a few words and began to get to the point.
I have seen it twice in the past few days. This should be the most frustrating negotiation since the richest man started his business. However, I couldn't help but be cautious. After all, the US military was involved, but I didn't dare to take it lightly.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "General Wright, how are things going? Heiyun is always ready, just waiting for the opinion and sincerity of the United States."
It seems that this kid is more anxious than himself, and the young man just can't hold his breath. At this time, General Wright felt that he was more mature than Bao Zixuan. As everyone knows, this is the intention of the richest man, just to make the other party take it lightly.
In the 1990s, the major aircraft giants in the United States entered the stage of mergers and acquisitions. For example, Boeing's merger with McDonnell Douglas; Lockheed's merger with Martin-Marietta; Northrop's merger with Grumman were all produced during this period. For the Black Cloud Group, it is a huge threat. The competitors to face are stronger and more abundant in political resources.
The best way to make Black Cloud competitive is to stop that from happening. Then the United States establishes a few more aircraft manufacturing companies, and then helps a few others in disguise; it may be a good choice to prevent them from being merged.
Even if Wright knew, he was not afraid. Being able to become a general showed that his ambition was not small. Why didn't the newly established Wright Aircraft merge with others, and the feng shui turns, maybe it will go to someone next time.
Ian Wright: "The Ministry of Defense has agreed to exchange technology and production lines for scrap steel; at the same time, it hopes that the Black Cloud Group will provide a full set of technology. That is to say, the factory must ensure that all parts can be produced."
Hearing this, Bao Zixuan knew that the old boy was preparing to give birth himself. Otherwise, it is impossible to get so complete, because some equipment may be cheaper to buy in the United States.
As long as there is a request, I am afraid that the other party will not make any request.
Bao Zixuan: "There is no problem with these, but all parts can be produced, which may be difficult. For example, parts such as flight instruments, displays, chips, tires, etc., Heiyun Group also purchases them. As for other problems, it is not big, I hope General Wright understands.
"Of course it's not impossible for General Wright to want to produce, but the cost will be very high; plus it's not particularly professional, some of the gains outweigh the losses."
"At the same time, in order to show sincerity, the Black Cloud Group will personally transport the equipment to the United States. Of course, it is best to be escorted by the US Navy on the way."
In the end, it is a professional. Before, I just thought about being able to produce quickly. As everyone knows, it is not during World War II, and electronic accessories and chips have been put into use in large quantities. Gone are the days when production lines, technicians, and drawings were packaged to fully replicate a product.
The German V2 missile was simply and rudely shipped back to the country by the US military, without even leaving a single screw to the Soviet Union. It can be said that it can be produced directly after returning to China. Ian Wright's father participated in this matter and told them as a story since he was a child.
As the world's first ballistic missile with practical significance, the V2 was widely used during World War II, with Germany launching more than 4,300 missiles to Britain and Belgium. Although the quasi-head is just like that, the losses to the Allies are very limited. But all countries are not fools, and soon realized that once this kind of missile is perfected, the future potential is endless. The United States was the first country to act. After Germany attacked London with V2 missiles, the United States began to form a special operations team to conduct various investigations in the Nordhausen area. Everything the special task team does will be extremely confidential, because before this, the three countries of the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union have just reached an agreement to divide Germany into four parts and occupy it respectively. Unfortunately, the Nordhausen area is a Soviet-occupied area!
The U.S. special operations team was undoubtedly successful, and they managed to investigate a large amount of information, such as more than 100 V2 missiles in production. I even learned about the German SS through special means and moved the V2 missile drawings into an abandoned mine. After all the investigations were completed, the U.S. military preemptively captured the Nordhausen area that was originally agreed to be occupied by the Soviet army, and had already prepared the transport brigade for demolition and transportation. This includes the V2 missile blueprints buried in the mine, more than 100 V2 missiles, as well as a large number of important parts, equipment, etc., and took away more than 400 technical experts from the German rocket factory. Of course, the U.S. military has obtained far more than V2 missiles, but also many other German black technologies, such as Karl mortars, rat tanks, and so on.
Some of them could not be moved. In order to prevent them from falling into the hands of the coming Soviets, the Americans destroyed many of Germany's most advanced weapons. That's how the Gustav artillery disappeared completely This work is quite Huge, but the United States is also well-prepared. They brought in hundreds of large trucks and repaired the railroad, carrying a total of 340 train cars.
Bao Zixuan said that he wanted to send the equipment directly to the United States because he was worried that the US military would do the same for him. It dared to pit the Soviet Union back then, not to mention that Heiyun was just an enterprise.
In case the production line is transported away, the remaining equipment will be destroyed. At that time, it may be too late to cry, and it will not be able to reason with the US military, because it will not make sense at all.
But Ian Wright didn't really think about it, and thought that Bao Zixuan was courting him. We have technical drawings and production lines, but in order to produce qualified products, we really need the full cooperation of Heiyun Group. He is more of an empty shell now, and he has not even finished the factory.
Even if the factory building is completed, Bao Zixuan's help is needed for equipment installation and debugging; now, even the shipping cost is saved.
Ian Wright: "Mr. Bao is very reasonable, but he is still inexperienced. Fortunately, you are a professional, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
"Everyone is a friend. I don't think Mr. Bao will cheat on me. Just follow your advice and say directly where you need to cooperate. The U.S. military will never disappoint."
I won't slap me, the meaning is already obvious; this is the rhythm of wanting to go it alone.
Bao's richest man wants this effect. If he gives the opportunity to other aircraft manufacturing companies, then he really cannot achieve the desired result. The rise of new forces will inevitably be surrounded and suppressed by the old forces. Even if the Wright family is not weak, they need to face the aviation giants throughout the United States, and it is not so simple to break out of the siege.
When the factory could not find workers and technicians, it would definitely turn to Bao Zixuan for help. This is an opportunity, an opportunity to enter the American aerospace industry.
