Warship of Great Power

When Qin Tao returned to the hotel, it was already midnight. He didn't disturb Zheng Ming, and just fell asleep soundly. When he got up the next day, he set foot on the road to the Far East.

"President Qin, Mikhaiev approached me yesterday, and we signed a purchase agreement for four Ka-28s, with a unit price of three million." Zheng Ming was very excited.

"Um."

"Boss Qin, you really are doing great things. When Mikhaiev came to find me, my heart almost jumped out of my head. I was so happy. You still look so ordinary, you don't care at all!"

"That's nothing." Qin Tao said, "Remember the fight between Ka-27 and Ka-31 yesterday?"

Zheng Ming nodded: "I remember, that plane seems to be a Ka-29, an attack helicopter used by the Navy."

"That's right, if possible, I will help the Navy get a batch of that kind of plane over, one can cost up to 500,000."

What?

Zheng Ming's eyes were full of excitement.

The old man has no need to land across the sea. The motherland is different. Up to now, the motherland has not yet achieved reunification. The construction of the navy is almost based on this goal. Therefore, the navy also has a need for ground attack. Although I didn't take a closer look at the Ka-29 yesterday, Zheng Ming has also learned about it. , it will play a big role.

Even, there is no need for any amphibious assault ship at all, just fly over directly.

What moved him more than the demand was the price, $500,000 a plane, which made him even more unbelievable. This price is definitely buying cabbage. Buy as much as you have!

"With this batch of helicopters, our navy may also need a professional amphibious assault ship. If the navy wants it, we must give priority to Mingzhou." Qin Tao said.

Now, even with the stimulation of the Xingchen, the country's economic strength is still not very strong, so it is impossible to invest a large amount of money in the navy. It is not known whether this special amphibious assault ship can be built!

However, if they want to build, Mingzhou will be their first choice.

"President Qin, you didn't propose this, do you want to compete?"

"That's right, competition. Our Mingzhou will come up with a special plan, which is better than the Osumi class of the islanders. Moreover, in the early stage of design, we have to consider the J-31's boarding requirements." Qin Tao Said.

These words made Zheng Ming excited all the way.

Far East, Pacific Fleet Base.

Once upon a time, how glorious it was here, with countless warships gathered, masts lined up in the port, and large warships, people who saw it were shocked from the bottom of their hearts.

What now?

How do you look, what a lonely look!

When Qin Tao and the others came over, it happened to be night, and the rays of the setting sun cast down, causing a special melody to emerge in Qin Tao's mind.

The most beautiful thing is the red sunset...

Boom!

The door of the Pacific Fleet Base Guest House was knocked open. When Qin Tao opened the door, he saw a familiar face.

"President Qin, you are a busy person, it is really difficult to meet you." The people outside murmured, "I once went to Mingzhou and waited for you for a month or two, but I didn't see you , I didn't expect to see you here."

Park Doo-hyun!

This guy is really lucky!

Qin Tao felt emotional in his heart, but since he came, of course he had to entertain him, and he couldn't drive people away. Qin Tao is upright and open-minded.

"Come, come in and sit down." Qin Tao greeted the other party to come in, and then made a cup of tea for him.

"President Qin, what is the current situation of the boilers we ordered later?" Pu Douxuan asked a question that he was most concerned about.

"It's not optimistic." Qin Tao's face drooped: "A few days ago, I went to the boiler factory, and the workers there were arguing about paying wages. The factory didn't produce at all."

"What about our money?" Pu Douxuan became nervous.

"The money has already been given to them." Qin Tao said: "The director of that factory is so stupid. I sent all the money to him, and in the end, he changed it all into rubles! You should also know that one or two How serious the ruble’s dive has been over the past few years, so he gave all the money to the upstream suppliers, and there was not enough money for the order. If he wants to start work, he needs another 10 million U.S. dollars.”

"Damn it, they are extorting, blackmailing!" Pu Douxuan was annoyed.

At the beginning, when the first boiler was delivered normally, Dazhou Company held their noses and admitted it, gritted their teeth and gave the money to Qin Tao, and asked Qin Tao to order the boiler. Who could have imagined that this was just the beginning of a nightmare , there is still another ten million?

"Yes, I said the same thing, but the factory manager over there is also very helpless. There are so many people begging for money. Without money, they just can't start work. This is right in front of them." Qin Tao said : "It is impossible to get back the previous money. If you want to get the boiler, you have to continue to spend money."

"No, it's absolutely impossible. We won't spend any more money!" Pu Douxuan said, "This is a bottomless pit. If we spend another 10 million this time, we may not get it. What if we are asked to continue spending money?" Do? These people don't have any business reputation!"

"Yes, there is a possibility, but how to solve your boiler problem?"

"Mr. Qin, please help us. We have already found out that the boiler of the Novorossiysk is intact, so we want to take that warship back and remove the boiler inside for use." Pu Douxuan said : "The auction price of the Kiev is 2 million, and we also hope to buy it back with a price of 2 million."

This is the main purpose of Park Douxuan's coming to find Qin Tao. They want to film the Novorossiysk, so Qin Tao should not interfere!

"You already have the Kiev, so you probably won't want the Novorossiysk anymore? As long as you don't bid with us, we can buy it back at the reserve price." Park Douxuan said: "As long as we can buy the new ship back The Rosiysk will not bother you about the boiler anymore."

They spent real money, but in the end, they went to Qin Tao's place for nothing. If they wanted to get entangled, Qin Tao would still be in trouble. Now, they plan to make a deal with Qin Tao.

"It's enough for us to build one aircraft carrier park, and there is no need to build a second one." Qin Tao said, "So, we don't plan to participate in the bidding for the Novorossiysk. But, you also know that the Pacific Fleet and the North The situation with the fleet is different."

The situation is different? What's the difference? Pu Douxuan didn't know.

"Last time, their Minsk was sold for 80 million yuan, so the economic situation of the Pacific Fleet is much better than that of the Northern Fleet." Qin Tao said, "Besides, they don't want to sell the Novorossiysk They want to use it after repairing it, so their reserve price is 10 million."

Even if Qin Tao doesn't get involved and bids with each other, the base price is already doomed. If there is no 10 million yuan, don't even think about sending this warship back.

"Ten million?" Pu Douxuan's expression changed again.

They want to buy the warship back for only two million, just like the Kiev. How can there be such a good thing.

Ten million!

This number is hard for them to accept.

"Even if we go back and disassemble it to sell scrap iron, it's not worth three million!" Pu Douxuan said, "They still want to sell it for ten million? Stop dreaming!"

"That's right." Qin Tao said, "If you disassemble and sell scrap iron directly, you will definitely lose money, but potential customers will do something else when they buy it back!"

Qin Tao's words turned Pu Douxuan from anger into helplessness.

He was pinched to death!

In many cases, the superficial words are just a fig leaf, and what everyone needs is a high-sounding reason.

When the Minsk was auctioned back then, Nikolai said that the Minsk had to be dismantled into scrap iron when it was bought back. If it was scrap iron, it could still be sold for 80 million? Everyone is tacit.

Now, the same is true for the Novorossiysk. If Dazhou Company wants to buy it, it must be to dismantle the boiler inside. Can it be bought at the scrap iron price?

Either give Qin Tao 10 million and let Qin Tao go to Lao Maozi's boiler factory to increase capital, or spend 10 million to buy the Novorossiysk. Comparing the two, the latter is more reliable. After all, Lao Maozi's boiler factory is unreliable no matter how you look at it.

Originally, he planned to make an exchange with Qin Tao, but unexpectedly, two million is not enough!

"I heard the reserve price from my friends inside." Qin Tao looked at Pu Douxuan sincerely: "I originally planned to only pay two million, so that I could make a fortune by buying it back and dismantling scrap iron. Now, this The price, I dare not bid, if you want to bid, you have to prepare 10 million."

Park Doo-hyun left disappointed.

Looking at this guy's back, Qin Tao was also deeply moved. Why is his luck so good? He actually met someone from Dazhou Company here! Originally, I had to rack my brains to find a way to contact them, and I had to reveal the reserve price to them quietly, but now it’s all right, let’s just make it clear!

Nicholas has to thank himself!

Zheng Ming looked at Qin Tao curiously.

"The last straw that broke the camel's back." Qin Tao said, "As long as this straw is put in, Dazhou Company will collapse with a bang."

"Boss Qin, what's going on here?" Zheng Ming at the side was very puzzled, he couldn't understand these dumb words Qin Tao said!

"It is said that the Norwegian company has filed a lawsuit with Dazhou Company on the patent infringement of natural gas ships, and has filed a claim of 3 billion U.S. dollars." Qin Tao said.

Zheng Ming nodded: "Yes, everyone is very curious, why the Norwegian company didn't go to trouble with the Mingzhou Group, but had a deadly fight with Dazhou Company."

"Because we no longer accept orders for new MOSS cans, we have spent huge sums of money to introduce the patents of French companies. It is meaningless for Norwegian companies to seek legal proceedings against us."

Qin Tao continued: "Recently, the stock price of Dazhou Company has also plummeted, and they have already encountered serious business problems."

Of course, Qin Tao had to intervene in the stock price issue. Recently, he spent a lot of money, what should he do if he has no money? Of course, he had to sell the stocks in his hand, so he sold the stocks of Dazhou Company all at once.

The reason for the lawsuit also attracted the attention of many investors. Seeing that the stock price began to fall, they also sold it together, causing the stock price of Dazhou Company to continue to fall.

"Then, they don't have the money to come to Lao Maozi to buy warships?"

Qin Tao shook his head: "No, it is for this reason that they must take pictures of the Novorossiysk."

"Why?"

"Because they need money."

This logic does not make sense!

"They spent too much money on the Minsk. Now, their company's operating conditions continue to deteriorate. If they want to come back to life, they can only find a way from the Minsk. As long as they solve the power of the Minsk The problem, then, their navy will take action, buy the Minsk and refit it, so that a large amount of funds will be injected into Dazhou Company, and their company will be revived."

Now, Zheng Ming understood: "Then, we will definitely not let this happen?"

"No, we didn't do anything, we just became spectators." Qin Tao said with a smile: "By the way, rest early today, and tomorrow, let's go to see Lao Maozi's helicopter. How many have been approved by the Navy?" Budget?"

"We have specially approved 10 million yuan, and we can buy as much as we can," Zheng Ming said.

If it's 500,000, you can buy 20, which is already a huge number for the navy.

"Um."

the next day.

"Qin, I heard that you had contact with people from Dazhou Company yesterday?" Nicholas asked Qin Tao with a smile.

"Yes, they knocked on the door just after I moved in. Did you leak the information about my residence to them?"

Nicholas smiled without saying a word.

"I told them, two million is impossible, at least ten million, this is your reserve price."

"Then did they agree?"

"I don't know yet. They are struggling in business now. The 10 million yuan is a huge sum of money for them. It may take a few days to make up, and the bidding may be delayed by a few days."

"Well, I listen to you, let's go, I'll take you to see the plane."

Nikolai strode forward and brought Qin Tao and others to the aviation base at the foot of the mountain. Zubayev, the person in charge, greeted them.

"Zubayev, where are our Ka-29 helicopters?" Nikolai asked.

"Over there, behind the Yak-38." Zubayev said: "These planes should have been disposed of long ago. Our base is about to become an aircraft graveyard."

"Aircraft like the Yak-38 can't be priced high, at most $10,000 per plane." Qin Tao said, now he really doesn't need to buy such a batch of planes back, as long as the price is cheap enough, it's fine.

"Okay, ten thousand dollars each, and all the accessories are given to you."

So quickly, a batch of junk business was negotiated. Even Qin Tao didn't think about what benefits this batch of junk could bring him, and let him make a lot of money.

Now, everyone passed the Yak-38 and came to the front of a row of helicopters.

Because it is on land, the helicopter's rotors are not folded, nor are the short wings on both sides. It looks majestic and magnificent, and some of the short wings even have rocket launchers hanging on them.

This kind of aircraft in service state is much more spectacular than the ones seen in the Kamov Design Bureau. Zheng Ming felt a little short of breath. If these aircraft were brought back, the navy could also launch a ground attack at any time. up? Those guys in the Army Aviation Corps must be dying of greed.

"We have a total of 20 Ka-29s here, three of which have malfunctioned and have not been repaired. There are 17 Ka-29s that are intact." Zubayev said: "Now, these helicopters are all in retirement. state."

"so little?"

"Yeah, not much in total." Nicholas said: "A total of 59 Ka-29 helicopters were produced, and 12 of them fell to Er Mao. Our Da Mao Navy has to take care of Europe, so , we have 20 here, which is already very good.”

"Well, do you have the Ka-27? Let's buy three more, make up exactly 20, add enough accessories, and sell them to us for 10 million, how about it? Nikolai, Zubayev, you are all mine Friends, I will never let you suffer."

A brand-new one is only three million dollars apiece, and this kind of second-hand one is worth half a million dollars, which is definitely very interesting.

However, Nicholas was a little tangled.

"Qin, the number of Ka-27s is not large. Our fleet has a total of less than 50 helicopters. These helicopters are currently in service."

The Ka-27 was officially put into the army in 1982. However, the output of this helicopter was not high. It continued one after another. Before the collapse of the Red Empire, it was a scale of one or two hundred. The oldest batch also Not enough ten years.

Therefore, the state of this batch of helicopters is still relatively new, and there is far no need to retire them.

The retirement of the Ka-29 was only because there were no warships to carry it, and the old Maozi did not have enough military expenses, otherwise, he would definitely not have died young.

"Our Ka-25 has been decommissioned in large quantities." Zubayev said: "You can have as many helicopters as you want."

The Ka-25 was used before the Ka-27, and even the Kiev class was equipped with Ka-25 helicopters. After all, the Ka-25 has the largest output.

Qin Tao shook his head: "No, no, we don't want card -25."

Although the difference between the two aircrafts looks good from the outside, in terms of actual performance, the difference is too great. The load of the Ka-27 is at least twice that of the Ka-25, and the parts of the two are very different. The power also varies greatly.

This is not to buy junk, but to purchase carrier-based helicopters for the navy. Of course, you need a model. Why do you go back with a batch of outdated Ka-25s?

Zheng Ming didn't speak at the side, and listened silently. He knew that Qin Tao must have a way.

Sure enough, just after Qin Tao clearly expressed his attitude, Nicholas frowned, and then said: "Qin, since you are so persistent, then, our navy eliminated three Ka-27s and sold them to you together. .Just as you said, 10 million, if there is any missing parts in the future, just come to our fleet to get them.”

That's it?

Zheng Ming's heart was shocked.

Five hundred thousand dollars a plane, buying second-hand Ka-27 and Ka-29, as well as a large number of accessories, this business is absolutely worth it!

It's a pity that the hangar of the Type 052 destroyer was originally designed according to the Z9, otherwise, with this Ka-27 helicopter, the anti-submarine capability can be improved to a higher level!

In fact, what kind of equipment is carried on the helicopter is secondary. Apart from being able to cooperate with the two modern-class ships, it does not match with other naval warships at all. Therefore, after returning, the equipment inside must be upgraded.

However, this carrying capacity is what the navy urgently needs!

The Ka-27 helicopter can easily carry four tons of equipment and weapons. What about the straight nine? The total weight of Zhijiu is only four tons!

It's a pity that the navy has no money, and the money allocated by the state is almost used in buying and buying. If you still have money, you can definitely buy more good things!

While Qin Tao and Nicholas were inspecting the helicopter, Dazhou Company was making a difficult decision.

"During the lawsuit with the Norwegians, they applied to the court to freeze our funds." There was silence in the conference room, and only one person was introducing the situation.

"Because there is no money to pay the workers, they went on strike and parade. All the ships we are building have been suspended. Among them, the two construction periods are the most tight. If they cannot start within half a month, then Two of them will definitely delay the delivery time. We need to pay the ship owner a large amount of compensation.”

"After the outside world heard about our movements, they began to sell our stocks. The price has dropped by 90% from the highest point. If we cannot raise enough funds to save the market, we may face the risk of delisting."

"What about Samsung and Hyundai? Didn't they always want to buy our shares?" An old man sitting at the main seat asked.

"Yes, they thought about it in the past, but now, our stock has fallen too much. They may be waiting for us to go bankrupt, and then they can complete the acquisition of us at a cheaper price."

Snapped!

The old man slammed his hand on the table: "No, it's impossible, our Dazhou Company will never fail! As long as we can raise enough funds!"

Now, everyone knows that money is the most important thing, but where do you get money?

Seeing that they are about to have a crisis, the banks dare not give them loans at all.

crunch!

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, Li Jinshan hurried in, and he saluted respectfully to the person sitting on the main seat.

"Everyone, I have already negotiated with the government and the military." Li Jinshan said: "As long as we can solve the boiler problem of the Minsk, the military will immediately order this aircraft carrier and allocate 200 billion won to us. With this money, we can get out of trouble!"

Their companies had problems, one was the Minsk and the other was a natural gas ship. In short, it was caused by a broken capital chain. As long as the funding problem is solved, they will still be good guys.

"Fix the boiler problem on the Minsk?"

"Yes, just take a photo of the Novorossiysk ship of the Pacific Fleet!"
