266 Pit the Americans for $25 million first

"I personally think we should give us tank samples..." Liu Yijiu said in embarrassment, but he did not have the same persistence at this moment.

Seeing that Liu Yijiu's attitude was much relaxed, the others naturally knew that they should have struck while the iron was hot and discussed, otherwise this kid would be helpless again and ignore the negotiation rules.

"Liu, there is no need. As you said, such heavy tanks are difficult to use on the complex terrain of your country, especially those electronic systems, and it is difficult to study and copy your country's industrial foundation. Our cooperation is not this time. If you think it is necessary, we can conduct single-item introduction and cooperation in a certain aspect of technology in the next step of cooperation. With money, you can do more projects..." Lieutenant General Thompson also considered the Chinese.

If you don’t have money, what high-tech to play with?

China has not even done much better in the transformation of the 59th tank, and the electronics industry is even more messy. In this case, it is possible for Chinese people to imitate all the m1 technology, rather than to give it to the prototype car.

The reason why they are willing to give technology to the engine is that China cannot produce the materials needed to produce the engine. At that time, they want to produce it, from the most basic mining equipment, then smelting equipment, then fine-processed CNC machine tools and subsequent heat treatment equipment, they have to buy them from the United States.

This is also considered that they are catching big fish with long lines.

"Xiao Liu, there is nothing to hesitate about. We still have many projects. Moreover, there is no money for the technical transformation and upgrading of Jialing Factory..." Zheng Hao was worried that the money would fly away at this moment.

How heartache would it make him feel?

Liu Yijiu's face changed many times, and the people on the Chinese negotiating group also felt that their best situation at present was to accept the American money. This is the most beneficial to the current Ninth Court. It is 15 million, and the price is still negotiable.

"Since that's the case, we don't need tanks. However, these tanks must be converted into money. We don't need 30 million US dollars, 25 million US dollars. No penny can be lost..." Liu Yijiu said in embarrassment, and the expression on his face told everyone. He still wanted a sample of the tank.

Other Chinese officials do not understand technology, and they do not know that studying some things in the m1 tank can quickly improve some aspects of their domestic technology.

Americans know that Liu Yijiu knows it too.

If you change the environment, Liu Yijiu will definitely not agree. Or if this young man has a higher status and has money, he will not agree. It will definitely not be so easy for Americans to use money to dispose of him.

The money is gone after spending it.

Once the technology is developed, they can produce as much as they want. The United States will only produce this kind of tank, and the production cost of just one car will cost more than 6 million US dollars. Although the more it will be produced in the later stage, the lower the cost. But in this case, the cost will definitely not be low.

The cost of research is naturally higher.

That's calculated in billions of dollars.

"No problem. Otherwise, we will discount each vehicle at a price of 3.5 million US dollars?" As long as Liu Yijiu agrees, there will be no problem.

"No, we have made great concessions. Either, 25 million, or 15 million and two prototype cars..." Liu Yijiu did not give in at all.

Zheng Hao was so happy that he wanted to jump up now.

To cheat Americans, this money is really easy.

The country has no money. No matter how they cheat, they have to take risks. At the same time, the country cannot give them much money. Americans have money, just like this, it's $17.5 million. Judging from this trend, it may be discussed by Liu Yijiu that it is 20 million.

At that time, their Ninth Hospital will be able to leave sideways. Not to mention ten supporting factories that are about to go bankrupt, it will not be a problem to come to another ten.

It would be better to allocate all factories across the country to the Ninth Courtyard. At that time, Zheng Hao was even better than those ministers...

Ignoring the rippling smile on Zheng Hao's face, the others who listened silently were shocked, feeling that Americans' money was too easy to get. Of course, they also knew that the premise was that they had to hold what Americans wanted...

"Twenty million! Liu, these funds are the largest amount we can pay..."

"Two five million, no one cent is missing. If you think our requirements are too high, or paying this money is too disadvantageous for you, then give all the tanks, or give two tanks plus 15 million. We will give each tank with a production cost of 6 million US dollars each, and we will give each tank a discount of 5 million US dollars, which is one million US dollars apart..." Liu Yijiu said gritting his teeth.

Americans want to take advantage?

Don't think about it.

This was a temporary idea. At the beginning, he was to solve the funding problem, so he could only think of solutions from the Americans. If the country needs foreign exchange, he helped the country to do foreign exchange. The boss above sent people from various departments to observe the negotiations between him and the Americans. When he thought that these people unconsciously caused the country to lose a lot of benefits, he naturally hoped to reverse the situation.

How to reverse it?

Did he rely on him to negotiate with the Americans alone?

This is impossible. The only way is to tell these powerful officials that it is useless to be ashamed and not to pay attention to etiquette and morality in the negotiation field. Other countries only care about interests.

Otherwise, this would have to be like the overthrew feudal dynasties before. For a nominal rule, some small surrounding countries would appear to be sanctioned to the central government and then pay tribute to some messy things that are useless to the national strength. As a result, the country's large amount of real money and silver was rewarded...

National image?

Without strong strength, it is impossible to establish it by just etiquette.

The Republic has taken too many detours. When he came, he hoped to influence these powerful officials through himself. They have not become the most powerful people now. After that, this is not necessarily the case. The attitude of an official determines the work attitude of his officials.

"We need to discuss this..." Seeing Liu Yijiu insisting, the Americans did not bargain with them anymore.

Liu Yijiu nodded, so the negotiations were suspended after several hours of stalemate.

The Americans returned to their room, and in order to ensure that the Chinese people would not overheard their conversation, people were arranged to stand guard outside.

"Since these tanks are not given to the Chinese, we cannot give them. Not to mention that they use our tanks to find the weaknesses above to develop targeted anti-tank missiles or other weapons and equipment. If they lack money, they sell these tanks to the Soviets. The consequences..." As soon as Wyen entered the room, he gritted his teeth and said to these big guys very seriously.

"The Chinese and the Soviet Union are in hostility..." Jim felt that this possibility was relatively small.

"Before this, didn't we even recover diplomatic relations with China? China wants to carry out economic development and international trade, but they don't have any foreign exchange reserves in China. Regarding Japan's war compensation for what they should have..." Mister felt that Jim's idea was wrong.

There is only eternal interest between countries and no eternal friendship.

Back then, the Soviet Union was their ally, and they both dealt with the Germans and the Japanese.

Now, the Soviet Union has become their enemy, and Germany and Japan have become the ally of the United States. Of course, only half of Germany are the ally of the United States, and East Germany is still a younger brother to the Soviet Union.

"General, what do you think?" There was no use to argue about this, and Mister threw the question to Thompson.

If he agrees to this, then there is no problem.

The m1 tank combines the most top military technology and technology of the United States. This kind of thing cannot be given to the Chinese, and it cannot be obtained by the Soviets.

Thompson fell into silence. The choice between the two was actually very obvious. Giving money would make it more convincing Congress. Or, some of the advanced equipment that the other party had to need could be operated in this way. Then give China some technologies that they need to invest very much to achieve results for them to study, so that they can easily earn money back.

Just like the gas turbines and variable compressed diesel engines they provide.

"Just as they ask, exchange them for 25 million!" As everyone was anxiously waiting, Thompson finally spoke. "They don't want to warm up these 25 million dollars in their hands..."

When the others heard this, they immediately laughed.

Chinese people want a lot of things in the United States, and they have to pay for them.

If China has a large number of things that Liu Yijiu has mastered, then they will not have such contact negotiations with the United States at all.

On the other side, Liu Yijiu was telling everyone why he did this.

Everyone else thinks that he wants money and gives up the tank. After all, money is the most suitable for them. Everyone knows the situation in China.

"Xiao Liu, I cooperated well this time, right?" Zheng Hao said shamelessly to Liu Yijiu.

At the beginning, he never thought that Liu Yijiu would do this. He was indeed very interested in the money in the hands of Americans.

Liu Yijiu nodded with a smile, "If it weren't for me that I didn't think about asking for a tank at the beginning, but I had to be cheated by you. You could have hit me by chance, and this blushing sang well."

Zheng Hao didn't even agree with Liu Yijiu's sarcasm.

"I just know you don't want a tank, so I show that it's more appropriate for us to ask for money. Otherwise, Americans would easily agree to give money instead of anything else?" Zheng Hao didn't know that he had already started to be shameless.

And it is public and shameless, not to say this in private, and it seems that it is very relaxed and natural to speak in front of other big shots.
