381 0:17.359 Tank Battlefield Debut

"This is a gift from our President to you!" Ibrahim said calmly.

Xie Kai was not scared by the check of tens of millions of dollars. While guessing the other party's purpose, he returned the check to the other party.

"I haven't seen the president yet! What kind of meeting ceremony?"

If something goes wrong, it will be a monster.

For ten million US dollars, you can buy three 359 tanks, and they are all high-end versions.

The other party is so generous, and what he wants is definitely not small.

"See you sooner or later, aren't you?" Ibrahim said indifferently, and did not take over the check handed over by Xie Kai.

Ten million dollars!

This is an extremely huge sum of money, especially for individuals.

"What do I need to do? I will definitely help if I can help; there is no way to help if I can't. In addition, I don't have a personal account, so..." Xie Kai returned the check again.

This is ten million US dollars, a huge sum of money that he could never have earned in his life.

It’s not that Xie Kai was not moved, but that he got the check and it was useless.

"This is a principal check from the Swiss Bank, which is issued by the president to someone's account. Within two months, you can exchange it for any branch of the Swiss Bank, and you do not need your personal account..." Ibrahim calmly told Xie Kai that this is a promissory note, not a check.

"Is there any difference?" Xie Kai felt like he was missing as soon as he said it, but added, "I know there is a difference between promissory notes and checks. General, you really gave the wrong person to the wrong person. You also know that money is useless in our place."

"Is that right? Why did your mother contract the clothing factory in your base? It seems that the boss of Kaisheng Game Machinery Company, which just became popular this year, is your uncle..." Ibrahim said leisurely.

Xie Kai wanted to deny it, but thought that the other party must have learned it very clearly through Harry Mosan.

It seems that it is necessary to go back and talk to Wang Guilin about the confidentiality of the base.

Xie Kai never thought that these situations were not kept secret in the base. Harry Mosan had been in the base for a long time. Can you not find out about this little thing?

"That's their business, it's useless for me to hold the promissory note." Xie Kai refused again, "Perhaps we should talk about your purpose first."

If you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal.

Who would give people money to spend it without any trouble? And one move would be a promissory note of tens of millions of dollars.

With this thing, you can get money anywhere in the world where there is a Swiss bank.

This is more reliable than a check.

Especially a series of zeros made Xie Kai's breathing difficult.

But he told himself that he could not use this money. As a reborn person, there are too many ways to make money. If you are a little lazy and wait for the domestic stock market to open, you can make a lot of money.

Be diligent and do the Internet, chat software, and e-commerce.

By then, Jack Ma’s father across the country will become Xie Kai’s father.

Why destroy your bright future for an unknown 10 million US dollars?

"359 tanks, 250 vehicles, must be guaranteed to be delivered within one year." Ibrahim didn't keep it silent.

Xie Kai was even more confused. It took more than a month for the 359 tank to be in the hands of the Iraqis, and it was not fixed.

Many performances cannot be ensured, and the quality is not particularly stable. Various tests have not been completed, especially in high-altitude areas, which will be completed in at least several months.

"This is no problem. Just talk to our base. If possible, the base will definitely do its best to meet your needs." Xie Kai was puzzled. "But at present, the tank has not yet been finalized. Aren't you worried about any problems during the use process?"

404 is under great financial pressure now. With such a huge order, you will definitely try your best to meet the customer's requirements.

Why give yourself money?

"Before you came, Colonel Harry Mosan asked the Hongqi Machinery Factory and the reply was ok, each vehicle was $3 million. At the same time, the delivery time would take two years..." Ibrahim did not hide it. "Your tank performance is indeed good, but the price is too high."

"How much does it cost to complete the transaction?" Xie Kai asked.

The other party takes ten million, and it definitely doesn't want to sell for US$2.5 million per vehicle.

The previous batch of prototype cars, each with $2.5 million.

According to the current calculation, a car with a price of 500,000 US dollars will have to save hundreds of millions of dollars. It is completely cost-effective to give ten millions of dollars in exchange for a price reduction of hundreds of millions of dollars.

But Xie Kai knew that the other party would not be satisfied with the price.

Originally, two million US dollars per vehicle could be provided to an Iraqi prototype, but Xie Kai set the price to 2.5 million US dollars for the subsequent mass production considerations. Unexpectedly, the base was even more insane and cost 3 million US dollars.

He also knew that this must be for negotiations to have chips.

If the price is directly quoted at $2.5 million and the other party bargained for every 10,000 US dollars less, it would be a huge loss.

"2.2 million US dollars per vehicle, this is the ultimate price we can accept! Your prototype car has many problems, and your technicians have made detailed records and feedback. The cost of use and maintenance are quite high!" Ibrahim began to talk about the various shortcomings of the 359 tank. "You said that it is fuel-efficient, but it is not fuel-efficient at all. The consumption of fuel is completely beyond our imagination..."

Xie Kai stared at Ibrahim with wide eyes.

It's just a joke, it's okay to say something else. The Iraqi general told himself that the tanks from China were too fuel-efficient and they hated them!

Iraq is an oil-producing country!

Iraq's oil is the least profitable on their side.

Besides, if the 750 horsepower engine consumes fuel, where can I go?

Xie Kai felt that he could not communicate with Ibrahim, "General, you have no sincerity at all. Please take this note. I have to go to bed. I just got off the plane, and the jet lag did not reverse, so I was very tired."

"Don't! Do you think that we are rich in oil in China, so we don't need to consider oil consumption? Cost! Logistics support, etc., all need to be taken into consideration, otherwise, our logistics system..." Ibrahim hurriedly explained.

Xie Kai was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He handed the promissory note in his hand to the other party again, and he knew that this thing was really not that easy to get.

Ibrahim didn't answer, "If you help us convince you, this is just the first fee. What's left, based on the cost you saved for us? A deal with less than $2.2 million will be reached, and you will share half of the amount. These accounts will be transferred to your personal account in a limited manner during negotiations."

"No!" Xie Kai shook his head.

“So far, we should be just the only customers in your country. Westerners have said that treat customers as much as God.”

"I'm sorry, I don't believe in God. God is too busy to care about the land of China." Xie Kai said with a grin, "Of course, we have always attached great importance to customers. However, if the price is 2.2 million US dollars, if we sell it, we will suffer huge losses. General, Colonel Harry Mosan should have reported on how much our cost is. US$2.5 million is provided to you, and we have suffered hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses for each vehicle..."

The price given by the base is 2.8 million yuan per vehicle. Of course, for Iraq and other customers, it is naturally a unit of US dollars.

For Pakistan, the same is true, except that technical costs are reduced.

"We have not asked you to provide us with US$1.8 million each as you would to Pakistan! US$2.2 million, which is the price Pakistan provides us with..." Ibrahim looked at Xie Kai and said meaningfully.

Xie Kai smiled.

The old guy actually used Pakistan to cheat himself.

Is Pakistan so stupid?

I didn’t even discuss with China. Isn’t I afraid that China will kick them out and the cooperation will be over?

"Really! Are they building factories in China?" Ibrahim was a little guilty when Xie Kai smiled.

The prices in Pakistan and China are the same, and even the technology cannot be guaranteed.

He thought that the real cost price could be defrauded from Xie Kai, or the maximum cost of $2.2 million per vehicle was used.

"General, the Type 69 main battle tank, the export price is only 500,000 US dollars per vehicle. That thing is cheap." Xie Kai was too lazy to talk nonsense.

To be advanced in performance, you have to be cheap.

Is there such a thing?

Even the monkey version of the t72 tank, the guy who killed one shot, could sell $3.5 million to Iraq, but he actually wanted to buy a tank with a performance that surpassed the t72 at half the price.

"..." Ibrahim had no choice but to do anything about Xie Kai's slipperyness.

"General, it's not that I don't help with this matter. I really can't help it. There are so many people who need to support such a huge unit. If it's just about the delivery date, I have no choice, but the price issue, even if I want to help, I can't help it. I've been kicked away by them now. Even my father is just a pure technician." Xie Kai was worried that he would really let the other party go to buy the Soviet t72.

The other person has a reputation after all.

I don’t know how much equipment is available worldwide.

"Can you convince them how much the price they gave us? US$3 million is too high." Ibrahim didn't believe that Xie Kai had no choice. "When you cooperated with Pakistan, you promised that each vehicle would not exceed US$2.5 million."

"General, can I ask why, in such a short time as to get the prototype, even your driver did not fully understand the tank's performance. The tank has not yet been finalized. Not only has the order quantity increased, but the requirements for the delivery period are also very anxious..." Xie Kai did not discuss the price, but asked why.

The Iraqis' reaction was somewhat abnormal.

He thought Ibrahim would not tell him easily.

However, Ibrahim did not hide at all, "war performance. On the southern border, the 11 359 tanks that just passed were besieged by more than 30 Iranian tanks, and none of them lost any of them, destroying 17 of them!"
