General Manager Yan Guixiang also shook Section Chief Song's hand and expressed his sincere gratitude:
"Chief Song, thank you so much! Thank you for inviting this God of Wealth to Xi'an. Our group is in such a difficult situation right now. You are truly a timely help."
Section Chief Song's attitude towards people within the system is always cold, with a typical Jinyiwei look:
"There's no need to be thankful or not. My job is to serve the country. While you, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, need to make money, both the quality of the aircraft and the final price must be genuine.
Chairman Lin just spent 10 billion RMB to purchase a large amount of construction machinery in Qingyuan for export. His strength is still very strong.
So don't worry about the money. As long as you do a good job in reception, I estimate that the transaction price will not be less than 10 billion.
This is just the first issue. Chairman Lin has a big appetite and has also taken a fancy to other domestic aircraft, including the J-7 fighter jet. So this is a big customer, and we must not lose the big picture for the sake of small gains."
When Yan Guixiang heard this, he was overjoyed.
"That's great. Right now, our Xi'an Aircraft Corporation's funds are being squeezed too hard by the Xianzhou Aircraft Company. If Chairman Lin's arrival can resolve our financial crisis, how dare I mess around?"
In the conference room of Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group.
Unlike other state-owned enterprises, the efficiency of Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group exceeded Lin Sanqi's expectations.
He thought that after arriving in Xi'an, the other party should first arrange a reception banquet, with one glass of Moutai after another. If the guests did not get drunk, it would mean that the hospitality was not good enough.
Then they would arrange some singing and dancing performances, or visits to scenic spots, and get drunk every day, and finally start negotiations.
During the negotiations, the center was filled with flowers, the table was filled with imported fruits, and the opening remarks were always "Dear so-and-so".
However, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group was unusually low-key. After inviting Lin Sanqi to the conference room, the staff made tea, and the head of the sales department over there started bragging about the PPT.
"Hello, Chairman Lin. The development of our Xian MA-60 aircraft began in 1988. The prototype was once called the Y-7-200A. The design drawings were completed in 1991.
The first airworthiness test aircraft made its maiden flight in 1993, and airworthiness test flights began in 1995, with a total of more than 910 take-offs and landings and more than 850 flight hours.
In May 1998, the airworthiness test aircraft obtained the type certificate issued by the Chinese airworthiness authorities and officially entered the market.
To date, we have produced 119 aircraft, 90 of which have been exported. They have gained a good reputation and market benefits overseas and are deeply trusted by airlines around the world. Ahem.
Lin Sanqi tried hard to suppress his laughter, thinking that he couldn't laugh to save face for Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group.
The fact that the Xian MA60 aircraft has been in production for so many years and only 119 have been produced speaks volumes.
As for its reputation and fame abroad, only those who use it know.
Before, Lin Sanqi was still feeling lucky that although the Xian MA-60 aircraft had a high failure rate, at least no one had died. However, when he was occasionally browsing short videos on his mobile phone, he found a comment.
It is said that in 2011, a plane crashed in Indonesia, and all 21 passengers and 6 crew members on board were killed.
Although Lin Sanqi could understand that only one plane was lost, this result was not bad. After all, other Boeing 737 planes were also lost one after another.
But to be honest, he came to Xi'an this time to try out the Xian MA aircraft, and he felt a little nervous.
What is the most painful thing in life? It is not spending all the money and losing the person.
Just like Kobe, when his helicopter crashed and fans around the world were still immersed in nostalgia and remembrance, his wife couldn't wait to publicly announce her new boyfriend and show their love.
This is the standard situation: other men spend your money, sleep with your wife, and beat your kids. You won't be able to rest in peace even as a ghost.
Lin Sanqi's mind was wandering, but he was still looking intently at the big screen, and continued to listen to Xifei's boasting:
"Later, based on the MA60, our Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group launched the improved MA600 in 2008, which featured major improvements in onboard equipment and cabin interior decoration.
Later, we actually developed the Xian MA700 aircraft, but the rapid development of our domestically produced aircraft caused a ban from foreign competitors, which directly cut off our engine supply, which was very shameless.
We at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group are currently developing our own flight engines. Although this is a complex and technically challenging endeavor, we at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group are confident and determined to overcome this challenge and build an aircraft with 100% domestically produced intellectual property rights."
Lin Sanqi agreed with this point.
Once domestic scientific research institutions have closed down and scientific research talents have fled abroad, foreign countries will begin to show their true colors and reveal their fangs.
Either they raise the price of your products by dozens or hundreds of times, or they directly impose an embargo on you.
Because you can't make it yourself, you have no say. Either you can't use it, or you have to give money abroad.
Lin Sanqi felt that this supply cut was actually a good thing, as it was to wake up the Chinese people who were dreaming of a strong country. They should wake up and tell them to stop sleeping because the traitors and their Japanese allies had already arrived at their doorsteps.
Let the Chinese people learn from their mistakes, work hard and create our own core technologies.
Anyway, Lingnan Hall will never sell its ginseng to families full of loyal and brave people, so as not to make money from them.
Of course, if this family of loyal heroes were really executed, he would not mind clearing all the fireworks in Liuyang County and setting off 10 billion fireworks on the spot to celebrate, even at the risk of being detained and imprisoned.
After the sales department's introduction, the lights came on, and Lin Sanqi came back to his senses and looked at the aircraft information in his hand.
To Lin Sanqi, the parameters of the aircraft were meaningless. He was not a professional, and it did not matter to him how high or wide the aircraft was. He was just a middleman.
Then Xi'an Aircraft Industry Company arranged for Lin Sanqi to "test drive" the Xianfeng aircraft.
Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group has its own airport, which shows how awesome this company is.
Lin Sanqi sat on the shuttle bus and headed to the airport. When passing several huge hangars, the sharp-eyed Lin Sanqi noticed something unusual and asked Huang Jinpeng next to him:
"Mr. Huang, what kind of plane is that over there? It looks like a transport plane to me. Why is it so big?"
Huang Jinpeng glanced at the unfamiliar people in executive jackets on the bus. After they nodded slightly, he introduced them with a smile:
"Mr. Lin, that's our most advanced Y-20 transport aircraft over there. It's a large, multi-purpose transport aircraft developed independently by our country.
With a maximum takeoff weight of 220 tons, a maximum payload of 66 tons, and a maximum range of 7,800 kilometers, it can carry out long-distance air transport missions for various materials and personnel in complex weather conditions, and is a strategic, iconic, and leading piece of equipment for the Air Force.
The aircraft made its maiden flight successfully in January 2013. The manufacturer was none other than our Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group. It's an absolute national treasure, and a testament to our group's technological prowess."
Huang Jinpeng's face was flushed when he introduced it, and he was obviously very proud.
Lin Sanqi's eyes lit up when he heard this. He had heard of the Y-20 but had never seen one. He didn't expect to see more than 20 of them parked there today.
If the Y-20 were to be transported to another time and space, our military's mobility would absolutely be world-class.
"Mr. Huang, is this Y-20 for sale now?"
Dong Jinpeng almost coughed up his lungs:
"We can't sell this yet. We haven't achieved mass production yet, so we don't even have enough for our own army. But I believe we can definitely sell it to other countries in the future."
Lin Sanqi smacked his lips, realizing that he was overthinking it.
How could we easily sell a weapon like the Y-20, which can strategically deploy weapons, troops, and supplies over long distances, to others? Even if we were to sell it to a foreign country, it would probably have to be a country that is a close friend of ours.
Lin Sanqi took a last reluctant look at the Y-20, like a toad looking at a swan.
Coaster turned a corner and came to another hangar, and a row of blue and white planes appeared in front of him.
16 Xian MA60 aircraft appeared before our eyes.
The car stopped in front of the plane. Lin Sanqi got out and saw this small domestically made plane with his own eyes. Naturally, he was filled with curiosity:
"Mr. Huang, why are there so many Xianzhou planes parked at the airport?"
As mentioned in the previous introduction, only 119 Xian MA aircraft were produced, but one-seventh of them are parked at this airport alone, which is a very high ratio. (End of this chapter)
