In the evening, Xing Baohua personally invited him to dinner.
While eating, Xing Baohua said with a smile, "Antonov, tell me, how can I get the plane as quickly as possible?"
"There's nothing we can do, production capacity is what it is," Antonov said, putting down his glass as he drank.
"Five million US dollars, you can specify any European bank or any other bank." The meaning of this is self-evident; it's definitely a separate "tea money" payment for him.
The other person smiled and shrugged.
"Ten million!"
Just as the other party was about to say something, Xing Baohua continued, "Ten million US dollars for each plane, I'll give it to you separately. Don't worry, we value integrity in business. Once the plane lands in Hong Kong, your overseas account will have an extra ten million US dollars."
Xing Baohua knew that Mao Zige and his gang were greedy and wouldn't let go until they got something in return.
Antonov said, "The bureau, the committee..."
He mentioned many companies, but Xing Baohua only knew one or two of them and didn't know what the others did.
"So, it's not just me who can decide this. Eighteen million, I can handle everything for you. In addition, you'll have to pay me ten million US dollars for landing fees, and I can get you two Type 124 aircraft this year."
Then Xing Baohua asked, "Which one are you developing the latest? My people told me it's the world's largest airplane, I want one too?"
"It's already assembled, but hasn't been test-flown yet. We plan to manufacture two ourselves, but the bureau can't get that much funding. If you can pay in advance, I guarantee you'll get one by the end of the year, and another by the middle or second half of next year."
Xing Baohua shook his head and said, "I want the two largest planes by the end of the year. As long as they land in Hong Kong, it's full payment. I'll give you a service fee of 30 million, which includes the cost of bribing your way through."
The other party wanted to raise the price, but Xing Baohua said, "Even the people of the Rooster Country aren't as greedy as you. Remember to know when to stop. It's not like I can't buy a plane."
Antonoff could also see Xing Baohua's impatience and knew he had no room for negotiation. Besides, they were genuinely short of money; everyone was short of money.
Xing Baohua has a choice, and the Russians also know that they are not the only ones in the world that can produce large aircraft; there are also big roosters and Americans.
This guy told Antonov to think things through tonight, and to keep him clear-headed and weigh the pros and cons, he didn't force-feed him that night.
The next day, Xing Baohua met with this person again at 10 a.m., and they settled on a kickback of nearly 40 million US dollars.
By the end of this year, Xing Baohua will receive two An-124s and one An-225.
Payment will be made upon arrival in Hong Kong, but Xing Baohua needs to handle the flight arrangements himself.
All the terms were agreed upon. Xing Baohua would give this person a tea fee of ten million yuan to help him run errands. As for the flight routes, the Zheng family scion on the board of directors had a family business in leasing airplanes.
Among all the shareholders, the Zheng family is the only one that keeps a low profile. If you didn't know that they own more than a hundred planes of various sizes all over the world, you would really think that they made their fortune through gold and silver jewelry.
