1615 Finally, the Kuwaiti find themselves out of money

"Communication Command Satellite? What do we want that thing? You can't even use early warning aircraft!"

Samarco was so amused that Xie Kai wanted to cheat himself again.

Does Kuwait need a satellite for a small land area?

As soon as the early warning plane was launched, it observed neighboring countries. Iraq and Persians used this excuse to say that they were spying on military intelligence, but they could not explain it.

Xie Kai was crazy about money, and even sold such things.

Naginnon even despised Xie Kai, "Thank you, you don't have a satellite command system in your own country, and you haven't developed satellites. The technology is unstable, so you actually sell it to us!"

"It is because of this that it is possible to sell the military command satellites belonging to strategic equipment to you. Once we use them ourselves, for the sake of confidentiality and national defense security, do you think we can buy this thing? Who in the world, whether it is the United States or the Soviet Union, can buy their own satellites? Even Europe, if you want to use the American GPS satellite system, not only has to pay, but also cannot use core functions. Military command must be controlled by the Americans..."

When the people around him heard Xie Kai fooling the Kuwaits, they shook their heads and closed their eyes to rest.

Or they just think about their own thoughts.

Xie Kai went to slaughter this fat sheep in Kuwait anyway.

"Comrade Yue Lin, you really don't have to worry. Xie Kai is responsible for his own work. As a leader, there are some things that you don't need to worry about, especially those things that you can't change even if you worry about, but will affect the friendship between comrades..."

Seeing Yue Lin pricking his ears and listening to Xie Kai talking to the Kuwaits, his face was full of worry, and Zheng Yucheng couldn't bear it anymore.

Yue Lin didn't understand Arabic at all. In order to keep it a secret, he did not let the Kuwaits follow the translations they sought from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The main major customer of the base's weapons and equipment was from the Middle East. They were once Persians, but unfortunately the Persian sheep were not fat.

Later it became the thin camel of Iraq.

Later, there was Saudi Arabia's fat camel.

Now that Kuwaiti fat camels are available, what if they don’t have a batch of Arabic translations?

But Yue Lin doesn't know Arabic, so he can only understand a few simple greetings.

Still have to listen.

I was worried that Xie Kai would sell equipment randomly.

He can't do as brave as Zheng Yucheng.

"If the superior does not approve it, the contract will be signed by then..." Yue Lin was worried about this.

There was no problem with the superiors' agreement. If they did not agree, they signed a contract with the Kuwaits, and they could be compensated for the penalty.

How can a communication command satellite be able to do it if it doesn’t sell for tens of millions of dollars?

You know, until now, they have invested more than 200 million in R&D funds in researching this system.

"Let him solve it, just do the logistics work well. Don't be able to hand over the things that meet the technical conditions at that time, that's your problem..." Zheng Yucheng's words were very serious, "As the head of the base's logistics, the work pressure in this regard is even greater. Without Lao Wang's support, 404 would not have reached the current situation."

Zheng Yucheng was completely warning Yue Lin.

Yue Lin himself also knew that they were trying to cooperate with Xie Kai's work.

Now everyone knows that Xie Kai is the soul of 404, with a unique vision, a cruel and ruthless person, and he will never be ruthless in slaughtering sheep...

As Xie Kai's father, Xie Jianguo was a little embarrassed in many things.

If Yue Lin did this too, Xie Kai would not care about 404 in the end, then it would be troublesome.

According to the original agreement, Xie Kai should not study for graduate school, but returned to the base and began to gradually accept base management. However, Xie Kai chose to continue studying for graduate school.

As a senior leader, you don’t need to have too strong professional skills. The key is to be sharp in order to lead the development of the entire unit.

This is what Zheng Yucheng is most worried about.

The country has long proposed that cadres will become younger, and they are no longer suitable to continue to occupy a position in management positions.

Yue Lin's face turned pale and he looked scared.

Zheng Yucheng and others' work attitudes and methods seem simple and crude, and everything has a purpose.

But he didn't understand this.

Nothing is more important than the development of the entire 404.

Once there is a problem, all kinds of good situations in 404 will be seriously affected.

"...General, it is entirely possible that early warning aircraft will be shot down, but satellites are hundreds of kilometers or even more in outer space. At present, no country has developed anti-satellite weapons in the international arena... not even the United States and the Soviet Union, let alone other countries in the Middle East..."

Along the way, Xie Kai was fooling the Kuwaiti people.

But the Kuwaiti people were unwavering at all and firmly stated that satellites were useless to Kuwait.

The plane landed on the 404 airport runway at 12 pm.

Xie Jianguo, Sun Yucheng, Bai Yanjun, who has not yet retired, has been waiting at the airport.

Inside the mountain next to the airport is the location of projects such as drones and other projects. The base does not arrange for an immediate visit to the factory.

After arranging the Kuwaits, Xie Kai and others entered the Management Committee building again.

Zheng Yucheng was very complicated when he saw that all the furnishings in his director's office were changed by Xie Jianguo.

On the original work desk, there was a microcomputer monitor like a TV, and the filing cabinet next to it was filled with various materials.

The meeting room became very crowded.

Xie Kai hasn't returned to the base for a long time, so he is not surprised that the base has begun to be computerized.

"Go to the conference room, you can't sit here."

The group had just sat down in the conference room, and Cao Jun, the head of the Aerospace office located in 404, also brought a few people there.

"Xie Kai, Director Yue, are you really going to sell satellites to Kuwaits?" Cao Jun was looking forward to this matter.

The days of aerospace over the years can be said to be the most prosperous in the entire military system.

But compared to the 404-prosperous days, it is still far behind.

In terms of military products, the country has little military expenditure and various missile production plans, which are pitifully few; in terms of civilian satellite rocket launches, because of the few customers, domestic technology lags behind Europe, America and the Soviet Union, and there is not much business.

If Xie Kai really sells the satellite to Kuwait, whether it is design and manufacturing or subsequent launch missions, it will be old money.

Even if they put aside the cost, they can only get 40% of the profit, which is very good.

"The Kuwaiti people have not decided yet. First, they will show them samples of the J-5 and J-6 cruise missiles..." Yue Lin introduced the details.

Cao Jun didn't have as many concerns as he had.

Da Dongfeng made a big profit before.

Now I finally have another chance to share the profits.

"Or, just have a test launch? During the entire flight, through early warning aircraft monitoring, so that the satellite communication and command system can also be displayed to the Kuwaitians..."

Cao Jun began to think that he had already negotiated with the Kuwaits.

No agreement was made.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Cao Jun felt a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Is there any problem? Before, Comrade Xie Kai sold equipment, didn't he show the use and power of these equipment first?"

Xie Kai did this before.

Take the customer to see the actual ones first, and then sell them.

Anyway, the weapon tested will be paid by the customer in the end.

"If it was a big east wind, they would ask for it if they didn't look at it. On the plane, the Kuwaits offered a purchase of $120 million per coupon..." Xie Kai sighed.

Why doesn't he want to do this?

If so, all the assets will be exposed to the Kuwaiti people's sight.

As she grows older, Xie Kai is now becoming timid and has no previous courage.

"Just show them the flight trajectory after launch, and control the drone to change orbit during flight to reflect the situation... The cruise missile transformed by the J-5 is slow..." Gao Ping, who is in charge of the satellite system, also felt that he could show the Kuwaits first. "Kuwait's country has a small country, and the requirements for satellite functions are not as many as our country."

Gao Ping was originally a technical backbone of aerospace, and his main research direction was satellite communications. He was eventually seconded from aerospace by 404.

The main technical research work for satellite systems, etc. is still the responsibility of aerospace, and only integrates technology according to needs.

"General, if we have a satellite system, our entire military system can be integrated into one whole..." In the guesthouse, Naginn looked at Samako, "The early warning aircraft is indeed useless to us. Once we have satellites, we can fully understand all the situation in the entire Middle East and provide satellite navigation services to other brother countries..."

"They won't sell such a thing. According to Xie Kai, we are providing us with low-orbit satellites with orbital heights of only hundreds of kilometers. How much do we have to buy to complete uninterrupted monitoring of the surrounding area? He thought his calculations were very smart..." Samaco was not unhurried.

But I am very unaware of Xie Kai’s proposal.

Xie Kai obviously wants to sell a large number of satellites to Kuwait. After all, China's satellites have low service life. In order to continuously provide satellites with surveillance, communication, etc. on the ground, they must keep buying satellites.

"Then we can buy synchronous orbit satellites! Isn't the Chinese Dongfanghong-2 like this?"

Naginn felt that there was a synchronous orbit satellite used to transmit communication signals and process data from reconnaissance drones and ground forces. The rest could also provide satellite communication services to Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia.

"It's too expensive! Our funding is not enough. According to their habits, this satellite is not worth $500 million and has no possibility... and its service life is not high, and it can be replaced with a new satellite in two or three years..."

Samaco finally told the truth.

This thing is too expensive!

Emil and the royal family can now agree to pay a large amount of military expenditure because the country was previously occupied and just recovered.

In the future, military spending will definitely be reduced.

It’s not like this that you have money.

By then, just one satellite will cost an average of 200 million to 300 million US dollars a year. How much does the Ministry of Defense still spend on training and expenses for ground forces?
