Rebirth of Military Workers

Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai, "You kid, I used to say that we were thinking about how to eat wild geese before we beat them down, but now you are not like this?"

From the very beginning, he has not received any orders for excavators from the armed police and hydropower units. Zheng Yucheng was worried that he would not be able to spend the money, and was scolded by Xie Kai many times.

Well now, they think a little bit more, but Xie Kai is the opposite of them.

"Get the order first. If there is any problem, we will find a way to solve it. There is no need to worry at the beginning, otherwise, there is nothing we can do. There are many such business cooperation internationally." Xie Kai sighed .

Now and then.

Zheng Yucheng did not have the enterprising spirit they had before.

Before doing anything, do not worry about any consequences, first get the order, get the advance payment, and use the advance payment to conduct project research. This is an act of last resort when the superior has no funds, the base has no projects, and no funds.

Now that the various conditions of the base have improved in an all-round way, and the foundation has also improved a lot, Zheng Yucheng and others have lost the thoughts they had before.

For the average person, this is a prudent, a change that must be made after the enterprise has developed to a certain extent.

Just like a person, he can run fast on any road with bare feet when he has not worn leather shoes. But after putting on the leather shoes, I was in the mud, because I was worried that the mud would stain the shoes, and finally stopped there, unable to take a step.

The development of 404 is not easy now, but it will be even more difficult in the future.

Once the senior management team loses its enterprising spirit, all project research and development progress and development will be seriously affected.

This is the last thing Xie Kai wants to see.

In the process of domestic reform and opening up, many companies were booming for a while, and eventually disappeared in history in a short period of time. Except for the sighs of some people, there was no shadow anymore.

It took Xie Kai so much effort to make 404 the situation it is today. Naturally, I don't want this base to be like that.

He wants to build this base into a giant in the world's military industry. The foundation is established and the market is expanding. What he lacks is time and technology accumulation, and he also lacks funds.

"Whether it is Pakistan or Egypt, we should win orders. For any type of equipment, the more the production quantity, the lower the cost. Not only is the cost reduction brought about by mature technology, but also the scale effect. Order to maintain operations..." Xie Kai emphasized solemnly.

"Xie Kai, everyone knows the truth. We used to have a short delivery period, and the current engine limits the output of over -7A..." Wang Guilin reminded Xie Kai.

Everyone understands what Xie Kai said.

It's not that they have lost their enterprising spirit, but that they can't help but consider the serious consequences of continuing as before.

The base is no longer in a situation where wages could not be paid before.

Many times before, they dared to take orders without any results. Anyway, barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes. In addition, the base can obtain breakthroughs in domestic technology through various channels, but has been put on hold.

Now the situation has completely changed, and it can no longer be so arbitrary.

"The engine problem is indeed a problem. We can't give up orders just because we don’t have engines. Almost all of the world in the arms trade is occupied by Europe, America and the Soviet Union. Aside from the equipment we sold during the Iran-Iraq War in the past few years, we trade every year. Um, you can't even enter the top ten in the world." Xie Kai presented a fact that everyone was unwilling to admit but had to admit.

The trade volume of China's arms exports is really too small.

The reason why the Iran-Iraq War was able to sell a large amount of equipment was because China’s weapons were cheap enough. For a country whose treasury has been exhausted during the eight years of the war, cheap and good quality Chinese weapons are indeed the best choice.

The later 359 tanks, on the one hand, are technology. Even if the international advanced technology is willing to export, the price is prohibitive to countries who want to buy it. The performance gap of the 404 program is not too big, the price is too cheap, and some orders have been obtained.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

This situation cannot be replicated either. It turns out that the state has not issued special policies in these areas. A large number of military-industrial units need funds to feed a large scientific research and production team. Therefore, as long as they do not disclose state secrets and do not endanger national defense, various policies are required. , The superiors provide them as much as possible, just to keep these units alive without sufficient financial allocations.

Now it's different. The superiors began to prohibit 404 exporting advanced technology.

The upgraded model of the 359 tank, which was exported to domestic sales, was named the Type 88 main battle tank. Because of its advanced performance, it was banned from export. No amount of money given by foreign countries is allowed to be exported, unless it is a reduced distribution version.

To buy a reduced version of the Type 88 main battle tank, it is better to buy the 359 tank directly.

Not only tanks but also other upgraded models of weapons and equipment developed by 404 are subject to this kind of export ban.

A series of equipment such as Qianwei-3 individual man-portable air defense missiles, Tianjian-2 anti-tank missiles, ground red flag-2 surface-to-ground tactical support missiles, domestic self-use dual-engine Super-7B, etc., are all included in the export ban. Range.

If exports are banned, it is natural to equip domestic troops only.

At present, military expenditures are constantly decreasing, and there are few plans for the troops to update equipment, and the orders that can be obtained can be imagined.

The performance of the sold products is simply unable to compete with Europe, America and the Soviet Union; the price was originally an advantage, but in Xie Kai, the price has increased a lot, and it is no longer an advantage at all.

Under such circumstances, there are more super-7A orders, who is not happy?

"Even if the problem of the engine gap is solved, Super-7B will not be sold because the superiors banned exports. The Egyptians expressed their intention to double-issue Super-7B..." Wang Guilin looked at Xie Kai, very embarrassed.

For the dual-engine Super-7B, the superior clearly stated that no export is allowed.

Even projects jointly developed with Pakistan are also affected.

It is not only Egypt that wants to double serve, but also Pakistan.

This is also an issue that the base executives worry about.

It's not that they don't want to sell it, but the service life of the turbofan-6 engine is no longer good, and because it is the best turbofan engine in the country, it is banned from export.

"Yes, the Pakistani side is also very dissatisfied with this. The Americans used various reasons to delay the delivery of the F-16 that should have been delivered to Pakistan, and our next door neighbor has negotiated with the Soviet Union that a batch of MiGs will be introduced- 29. The Pakistanis are naturally anxious." Zheng Yucheng also looked at Xie Kai.

Although this time is participating in the Paris Air Show, the possibility of getting orders at the air show is not too great.

It is not easy for Super-7A to get more customers.

The customers that can be obtained are unable to sell what they want because of the export ban.

"Is there a clear export ban now?" Xie Kai was a little surprised.

China is embargoed by the Western world and the Soviet Union. This is something everyone knows. Xie Kai also knows that the country also has embargo regulations, but they have ignored it because they have been selling the most advanced domestic weapons and equipment abroad for these years.

"It has always been there, otherwise everything will be exported, and it would have been messy. Foreign countries can also find out our technical strength based on these technical equipment. You know, internationally, many countries purchase weapons and equipment, and it is not necessarily theirs. Urgent need. Batumi embargo, Western countries and the Soviet Union impose arms embargo on us, we also embargo foreign countries in certain areas..." Bai Yanjun told Xie Kai, "The situation in the previous base either closed down or changed. , Both us and the superiors have chosen to change... Now the situation is improving, and many units want to learn our model..."

Xie Kai was silent.

If this is the case, it will not be easy for new equipment to be sold abroad in the future.

Just like the F-14 in the United States, it received investment from the Pahlavi dynasty due to lack of funds during the research and development process. In the end, it only exported dozens of modified F-14s to the Persians, whether it was configuration or The performance is much worse than that of the mold for personal use, and the price is still expensive.

Even this kind of fighter jet, in the entire world, only the Persians have obtained a batch, and no country can buy it from the Americans.

"Ultra-7B is likely to be the same as the F-14 sold by the United States to the Persians, exporting a batch of modified versions to Pakistan and prohibiting exports to other countries." Wang Guilin added.

Xie Kai talked with Pakistan about the cooperation of the Super-7 project. The two parties jointly invested and the technology was jointly owned by both parties.

In the end, the Pakistanis dragged on because of the F-16. They signed the contract and gave the money until the Super-7A was developed. This became the joint research of the Super-7B project by both parties.

At the beginning, 404 lacked funds and had to sign the contract.

But now...

"This matter must be carefully considered. Anyway, get ready to go, Pakistan, and see the situation at that time." Xie Kai doesn't know how to do it now.

He had thought about this situation before, and he always felt that the possibility was not too great.

Now things have happened, and I can only think of ways to change.

Weapons and equipment are related to national defense and security. Any country, as long as it has the ability, naturally hopes to have more advanced equipment.

The performance of Super-7A is far from Super-7B. Although the Super-7A has good combat capabilities, this fighter is positioned as an advanced trainer and a light fighter, and its combat effectiveness is naturally greatly reduced.

With strong combat capabilities, the dual-engine Super-7B has improved too much in both range and ammunition capacity. Even the avionics system and fire control radar inside the fighter aircraft have been significantly improved.

"The participating teams are all ready, and they can set off directly at that time, transport -10 and transport -8, and they will arrive at the base tonight. If we can't win the orders from Pakistan and Egypt, we will be able to get it this time. The benefits are limited." Zheng Yucheng told Xie Kai solemnly.

Xie Kai nodded, expressing understanding.

Now we can only find a way to solve this problem without violating the domestic export ban.
