Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

The Black Hawk helicopter project was settled. Except for the Navy's model, which had a slightly higher price, the price of the land-based helicopter remained unchanged, and accessories and services were included.

Having witnessed Qin Yang's negotiation process firsthand, everyone was stunned. After coming out of the meeting room, the group discussed animatedly.

"President Qin, how did you know the Americans were lying?"

The Americans said their engines could run for five thousand hours without a major overhaul. Everyone believed them, except for Qin Yang, who insisted on getting to the bottom of it. As a result, he forced the Americans to tell the truth. The Americans were actually trying to deceive us!

Now, everyone felt a lingering fear.

Qin Yang was a domestic military industry genius, but he was only a gun maker, at most a cannon maker. When did he become so capable that he could build airplanes? If he wasn't so capable, how would he know the overhaul time of the American airplane engine?

Qin Yang smiled.

Even if I haven't seen a pig run, I've always eaten pork, right? Although Qin Yang in his previous life had sat in a Black Hawk, he was not familiar with the specific data of the Black Hawk. However, this did not prevent him from having basic common sense.

No matter how great the Black Hawk is, it is impossible for the engine not to need a major overhaul! No matter how great the American black technology is, it hasn't reached that level yet. Not to mention helicopter engines, the F100 engine used by fighter jets has very good-looking data, but its reliability is still terrible, giving the F15 the nickname of "Hangar Queen."

At this time, meeting everyone's gaze, Qin Yang said meaningfully: "American technology is indeed advanced, but technology is created by people. If they can do it, we are not far behind! So we don't need to blindly worship them. We must look at it with a critical eye."

With the opening of the country, some people were blinded by the outside world and began to kneel and lick, while others saw the gap and constantly worked hard to catch up and surpass. Qin Yang had to despise the first type of people.

"That's right, President Qin is right." Old Liu nodded: "It is better to have no book than to believe everything in it. We must have a skeptical attitude towards everything. This is the attitude that a scientific researcher should have."

"Old Liu, what are your next arrangements?" Qin Yang asked.

It was not satisfying coming to the United States with no time to act independently.

Qin Yang was only responsible for controlling the overall situation, and the details were handled by professionals. The Black Hawk also needed to be sent to the East for testing, which would take time. Qin Yang hoped that he could spend the next period of time alone with Nie Xiaoqian.

"There is indeed nothing major next..." Before Old Liu could finish speaking, the secretary whispered a few words in his ear.

"If things are arranged properly here, then next, let's go to Gage-Dachsin Company." Old Liu said: "They heard that you are coming and sent a special invitation. The rest of us will take advantage of your presence and go to inspect their ground weapons."

Qin Yang was a little helpless. It was still a group activity. Did he have to go with them?

"Yes, our 960 Factory is working with Gage-Dachsin Company to jointly develop the American Jaguar tank, and our relationship with them is not bad. I heard that they are a leading company in the research and development of ground weapons, so now is a good time to go and inspect them." Leader Dong said.

Along the way, Leader Dong was mainly observing, looking at the Western world and how Qin Yang interacted with foreigners. He had almost no sense of presence, but now his value was finally reflected. With him saying this, Qin Yang had to go.

So, the next stop was directly to Louisiana, to Gage-Dachsin Company's most important Textron factory.

When they arrived, it was morning of a new day. Jack and Clark, who had previously been in contact with Qin Yang, were waiting at the door to welcome Qin Yang and his party.

In front of them stood a middle-aged man in a suit.

"President Qin, welcome to your arrival. Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Nicholas, the head of our company." Clark greeted.

Although their share was not high, according to the original plan, the profit per vehicle was split equally, 50,000 per vehicle. If 100 vehicles were sold, that would be 5 million in profit! Their sales target was 10,000 vehicles.

However, this would have to wait until the Easterners had completed the modification of the engine and other components. They could only wait. This time, Clark heard that Qin Yang had come to the United States with the Eastern inspection team, so he quickly invited them over to talk about this matter.

"President Qin, has your company completed the improvement of the American Jaguar tank? If the power system is improved, we can tailor the appearance for it." Clark babbled: "We already have several design plans, but we need to wait for your vehicle data."

Modification?

Qin Yang didn't take it seriously at all. After the engine and gearbox were sent over, he directly sent them to Zhang Baozhong for research and development, and he didn't use them to improve the American Jaguar tank at all.

At this time, hearing Clark's question, Qin Yang's face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat faster: "The turbocharger of the engine and the gears of the gearbox have been modified. They will soon be installed on the tank for testing. Please be patient."

"Can we go and see the progress? If necessary, we can help." Clark took it seriously.

"No, our project is to modify the tank at a low cost. The cheaper it is, the easier it will be to sell. Isn't it a waste of money for you to run back and forth? In the end, it will all be added to the price of the tank. Just wait patiently."

Clark nodded: "Okay, but how long do we have to wait?"

"Next month, if everything goes well, it will be finalized next month."

Nie Xiaoqian, who was next to him, was frightened. She had done so many things with Qin Yang, of course she knew Qin Yang's character. He didn't have a gate on his mouth, and he could brag as much as he wanted. 960 Factory didn't modify the American Jaguar tank at all. Finalized next month, is that possible?

"You have a lot of good things here." Qin Yang quickly changed the subject.
