Chapter 750: No Way to Get US Dollars



Huang Jinpeng could understand the other party's caution after hearing it.

After all, the United States is fanning the flames everywhere and regards China as a competitor. Once a small African country purchases Chinese weapons, it will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side by the United States.

Therefore, it is normal for the other party to want to keep a low profile or even block the news.

When Lin Sanqi saw that the military-industrial enterprises represented by Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group were so easy to talk to, he also wanted to solve the problem at one time.

"Mr. Huang, since we've come this far, why don't we just agree on the number of aircraft?"

Huang Jinpeng discussed it with Yan Guixiang and felt that since both parties were so frank, there was no need to hide anything anymore.

"Okay, since Director Lin is so generous, let's decide on the general direction today."

Lin Sanqi asked, "How many planes can the military sell me in total?"

Huang Jinpeng sat up straight and replied seriously:

"I haven't got the specific figures yet. After all, those old planes are in the hands of the major war zones. How many of them can still fly? This still needs comprehensive statistics, which will take some time.

But I can give you a rough number. There are about 600 J-7 aircraft; there are not many Z-8 helicopters at present, about 100 or so.

The H-6 bomber and Y-7 transport aircraft are produced by Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation. We are well aware of the number, which is 20 and 150 respectively.

Of course, if it is in bulk, the price will be discounted.

The J-7 fighter jet costs $10 million each, the H-6 bomber $8 million each, the Y-7 transport aircraft $5 million each, and the Z-8 helicopter $1 million each.

The young secretary Zhu Xinyue was very serious and immediately pushed the draft paper over.

Lin Sanqi took a look and gasped.

According to the prices set by the other party, the J-7 fighter jet costs US$60 million; the H-6 bomber costs US$160 million; the Y-7 transport aircraft costs US$500 million; and the Z-8 helicopter costs US$100 million.

The total amount is 6.76 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to 42 billion RMB.

A bunch of obsolete old aircraft can still be sold for so much money. Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group and its superiors would be laughing in their dreams.

And this is just the price of the aircraft. You will have to buy missile weapons and spare parts later, which will cost at least 20 billion, plus the 40 Xianfeng aircraft.

That is to say, if this deal is completed, the transaction amount will reach 60 billion yuan, which is almost 10 billion US dollars.

This number is definitely a huge military order even in Europe and the United States. It is so large that it can drive military companies crazy and even start a war.

Huang Jinpeng suddenly remembered the leader's instructions, so he said:

"Mr. Lin, if you really want to buy it, you need to make a cash transaction. You are a company, not a country. The country can borrow money to buy it, but companies can't."

When African countries buy things from us, they always owe us money first.

In the end, they will either have to use domestic mineral resources as collateral in exchange, or wait for the big country to show mercy and forgive the debt with a wave of its hand.

If all else fails, they will treat you as a deadbeat and even confiscate your Chinese assets. There are also many who repay kindness with enmity.

But Lin Sanqi obviously did not receive such treatment. The leaders were afraid that Lingnantang would take the plane and run away, so they cancelled the company's registration.

Don't doubt the courage of Southerners.

Lin Sanqi smacked his lips, his heart beating faster and faster. Including the Xianfeng aircraft, he had negotiated a business worth more than 60 billion in just two days.

More than 60 billion, how much Pu'er tea did he have to sell with great effort?

Is it easy for him to make some money?

But buying an airplane from China is Lin Sanqi's only option. As for buying an airplane from abroad, regardless of whether the other party will sell it to him or not, even if the other party is willing to sell it, Lin Sanqi would not dare to buy it for the time being.

It's like a certain country in the north, a country with no credibility. They take your money, then don't give you the plane. What do you do? Sue them? Their national character is a big gangster.

For example, the United States across the strait is the ancestor of the gangster world. It is estimated that the price of an obsolete aircraft may reach hundreds of millions.

The key is that after you buy it, they will track you in various ways. Then they will accuse you of disrupting regional peace and confiscate your plane directly. You will have no place to cry.

What is the spirit of contract? In the eyes of these old hooligans, it means that you must abide by the spirit of the contract, and they are the referees + athletes.

As for going to some small Eastern European countries to buy MiG-21s, don't joke.

These small countries experienced the changes in Eastern Europe decades ago, and their national strength is weak, so they don't maintain their aircraft at all. An aircraft that has been gathering dust in the warehouse for decades has no value in being used again.

What Lin Sanqi wants to buy is a second-hand plane that can fly normally, is fully and completely maintained, and can be taken out for air combat at any time.

After figuring this out, Lin Sanqi felt relieved. Since he couldn't resist, he might as well enjoy it.

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions on the price. I just hope you won't set up any obstacles and end up cheating me. After all, it's not easy for us private enterprises to make a little money, and we really can't afford to be tossed around."

Huang Jinpeng patted his chest and comforted:

"How is this possible? We are a large state-owned enterprise in the military industry. How could we possibly cheat a private enterprise like you? Director Lin, you can rest assured that we will absolutely abide by the contract."

Lin Sanqi thought to himself, I just don’t trust your large state-owned enterprise.

For example, his old friend China Railway X Bureau has scared private owners to the point that they would rather not make money than take on their projects.

To do business with them, you have to advance the money yourself. After the project is completed, when will you receive the payment? If you can receive it at all? It all depends on their mood. There is no credibility at all.

General Manager Yan Guixiang was secretly surprised, thinking that Lingnan Hall was really hard to understand. 60 billion is not 6 million. How many private enterprises in China can come up with such a huge sum of money?

The two parties agree on the price, and the final issue is how to deliver the goods.

Huang Jinpeng explained at this time:

"The Xian MA aircraft are all in the hands of our Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group. As long as the contract is signed and the formalities are completed, we can deliver them to your designated location at any time. However, military fighter jets may take a little longer."

Civilian aircraft can fly across countries, but military aircraft are generally not allowed to fly. We need to disassemble them before we can transport them. Nearly a thousand aircraft is a huge number, and we need some time to prepare.

In addition, Director Lin, you also need to prepare a receiving base abroad. If so many aircraft are transported in one go, a normal small airport will not be able to accommodate them. It would be ridiculous if there was a traffic jam."

Lin Sanqi also had his own concerns and said awkwardly:

"My dear leaders, although the aircraft I purchased are old and have no combat capability, weapons are sensitive items after all. Therefore, I hope this matter will be kept confidential. When you export the aircraft, use the excuse of industrial machinery. Do not mention weapons or fighter jets."

Lin Sanqi didn't want to attract the attention of the American gangsters. If they put direct pressure on him, he might not be able to keep his base in Madagascar.

Moreover, when fighter jets are exported, relevant domestic departments will definitely closely monitor them. They may use satellites to shine overhead, install positioning devices in the aircraft, or directly send people to monitor them at the port.

Although Lin Sanqi didn't need to explain to anyone why he traveled through time and took away these planes, it was better to do it secretly if possible.

Huang Jinpeng felt a little embarrassed after hearing this:

"There's no problem here. We'll notify domestic customs and keep it confidential. But foreign customs will definitely inspect such a large quantity of goods. Wouldn't everything be exposed then?"

Lin Sanqi laughed when he heard this:

"You don't have to worry about Madagascar. The port and airport of Antsiranana are now completely contracted by Lingnan Hall. Even the customs officers are our employees. We can do whatever we want without anyone interfering."

Huang Jinpeng and Yan Guixiang cursed in their hearts:

What a fucking tycoon, he's so rich he can even bribe foreign governments.

In fact, they didn’t know that Lin Sanqi’s ambition was even greater now.

He was prepared to spend his own money and provide weapons to support a puppet local warlord in northern Madagascar.

Coupled with the combat command capabilities of our country's veterans, we can completely dominate Antsiranana Province, and if possible, we can conquer the entire country.

Anyway, there are no minerals or attractive materials in Madagascar. It's just a bunch of black uncles with an extremely high AIDS rate.

Such a poor and small country with no oil or water can't attract the interest of European and American capital at all, so Lin Sanqi can do whatever he wants.

At this time, Huang Jinpeng suddenly remembered and reminded:

"Director Lin, the boss said that since this transaction is a foreign trade order, we can only accept half RMB and half foreign currency as payment. I hope you can understand this."

When Lin Sanqi heard this, he felt a pang of pain.

He no longer considered the more than 100 billion yuan in the account to be non-existent. He just regarded it as a public account. It didn't matter how much money was spent. He just regarded it as bait to buy any sensitive materials he wanted in the future.

But if he wants half a dollar, 5 billion US dollars, that would be money from his private treasury.

He can clearly distinguish between the company's money and personal money.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi was in a dilemma:

"Ah, leaders, this is a bit troublesome. Section Chief Song has also told you that I have a large sum of money from selling jade, which is enough to support the funds needed for this transaction.

But I don't have that much foreign exchange, and $5 billion is a difficult task for me.

To be honest, Huadu Medical University and I jointly launched a $500 million research project, but we've only received $200 million so far, and that's all I got by borrowing from a foreign bank."

Lin Sanqi is not afraid of the relevant departments to investigate, because the actual amount of $500 million received is $200 million, which is real and can be used as an excuse.

Of course, Lin Sanqi originally only gave $200 million because he was worried the school would waste money and planned to pay it in installments. Unexpectedly, this has become the perfect excuse. (End of this chapter)
