"You have to know the specifics after communication. You should know that the combat performance of the 359 tank... We jointly developed it with Pakistan, but we agreed, it wouldn't work." Xie Kai said.

Mubara was a little anxious when she said she would sell the 359 tank production line.

They were deceived by Xie Kai and gave them a technical threshold fee of $50 million. They finally built the production line, but they had not produced much and had no profits. Xie Kai sold the production line again.

How to sell tanks in the future?

Mubara breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Xie Kai say this.

It was still early when the plane arrived in Chengdu.

The reception car arranged by Factory 132 has already been parked at the airport.

Zheng Yucheng personally led the team to greet him, and Xie Jianguo also looked at Xie Kai and smiled.

The two of them had bloodshot eyes.

After the two sides introduced, they exchanged greetings and got on the bus and headed to Factory 132.

Zheng Yucheng and Xie Jianguo took Xie Kai into their car. It’s not that they don’t want to have a good relationship with customers, but they don’t understand this.

On the phone, Xie Kai didn't say it too clearly, but only said that the Egyptians wanted to buy fighter jets.

"How is it?" Zheng Yucheng asked anxiously, and Xie Jianguo also stared at Xie Kai.

"What they mainly want to get is the fighter production line..." Xie Kai introduced the situation, "As long as we agree to sell the production line, the problem will be not big."

"Selling the production line? Will the above agree?" Xie Jianguo asked with a frown.

"In principle, no support." Xie Kai said, "After all, we are international cooperation and Sino-foreign joint venture."

Zheng Yucheng understood, "How much does they purchase?"

"Anyway, it's less than eighty, so I won't talk about the production line." How could Xie Kai know how much the Egyptians purchased?

Anyway, 80 aircraft is a hard indicator.

"If they get a fighter production line, they will become our strong competitors..." Xie Jianguo said worriedly, "If there are too many, the Soviets will be in trouble for us to block the engine."

"Aren't the power plant imitating the rd-33 engine? Even if Egypt has obtained a production line, so what? Think about it, we have not been completely produced since the introduction of the bass engine production line in the UK?" Zheng Yucheng was not worried, "Your price will not be sold at the price of the J-7, right? The J-7 can be said to be half sold and half given away."

In 1980, China signed a military trade contract with Egypt to export 60 J-7s in Egypt, and soon delivered twenty aircraft. Then in 1982, the remaining 40 aircraft were delivered in accordance with the J-7b technical standards.

That price is completely bargain.

Of course, it is also gratifying. Before that, all the J-7s exported by China were military aid!

Yes, military aid is not charged at all, and even shipping costs and training costs are required.

Just to help brother countries improve their national defense strength.

It was not until the reform and opening up that the country continued to reduce its military expenditures and exported weapons according to market principles that the situation changed.

"The minimum is 10 million US dollars!" Xie Kai said.

"The 800 million US dollars is worth selling production lines. Anyway, selling Pakistan is also selling, and selling it to Egypt is also selling it." Zheng Yucheng was overjoyed, "In Pakistan, they want to get technology and production lines for US$250 million?"

"Although this matter is annoying, we cannot do too much in the matter. We have to participate in the subsequent twin-engine fighter project. If the Air Force doesn't want it, we will find a market again, and it will be troublesome..." Xie Kai explained why he agreed to the Pakistani people who invested 250 million US dollars to obtain technology and production rights according to the original agreement.

Anyway, Pakistan cannot be stronger than China in terms of fighter jet design.

The manufacturing of key core components is in the hands of 404.

"Not to mention anything else, they can't invest in building just a large press." Xie Kai said. "Besides, the subsequent investment will be even greater. If the $250 million comes in, our funding pressure will be much less."

Zheng Yucheng was not happy, but he did not object anymore. Anyway, there is still something to talk about later.

The convoy set off from the airport and went to Factory 132. At this time, the cadres and staff of Factory 132 went to the office and the production workshop one after another.

Huo Haiyuan is now the chief designer of the 404 fighter jet. Although Factory 132 and 611 were very upset before, they could barely accept it after a long time.

In this situation, the 132 Factory and 611 people protested against the failure to receive.

Knowing the conflict between the two sides, Zheng Yucheng didn't say much.

The group of people, Huo Haiyuan and several other persons in charge, took a tour of the single-shot super seven-model that was being tested.

"...Super-7a, adopts canard wing layout, wing body fusion technology, large delta wing... It is powered by a Soviet-made rd-33 engine, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.35... It has very excellent maneuverability... It can carry 900 kilograms of ammunition..." Huo Haiyuan pointed to the prototype that is undergoing ground skiing test to introduce this light fighter that integrates many technologies of the J-9.

In particular, this light fighter uses a four-degree flight control system, and the use of some digital analog systems and larger-scale computers have made the Egyptians overjoyed.

They originally thought that this thing was probably an improved model of the J-7.

When I saw a prototype that could slide on the ground and understand the situation, I was so happy, don't mention it.

"Did they really take foreigners to see the fighter plane?" In the office, Xiong Hongyuan asked Li Wenzheng with disbelief.

"There are people in the test workshop, what else is fake? Lao Xiong, we have to think of a solution. If they do this, our unit will have to produce their fighter jets in the future..." Li Wenzheng said worriedly, "Snatch our people, grab our business, and let us work for free..."

"What's the saying about Director Song?" Xiong Hongyuan was also uncomfortable.

The 404th thing done is too unauthoritable.

But what else can they do except look helplessly?

"I'm busy studying the No. 10 Project all day long, how can I pay attention to these? Besides, the two fighter jets of the 404 are responsible for part of the No. 10 Project technical verification! Director Song hopes that they can make it out as soon as possible..." Li Wenzheng complained.

Many people were dug up in the 611th station, but Song Wencong didn't even speak.

"We should consider this from a different perspective. The more fighter jets they sell, the more production tasks they will have..." When the two were upset, Deputy Director Zhao Kunxi said.

"If they have too many tasks, how can they not set up their own production plants? Now they have already built an engine plant..." Li Wenzheng said.

"Engine factories were not happy before. They wanted nothing but business. Investing in a fighter aircraft manufacturer is not an easy task..." Zhao Kunxi shook his head, "They don't have a production factory. The more orders they sign, the greater the benefits they will be for us, right? If it weren't for their orders, we would rely on domestic Air Force orders, so how could we be so moisturized."

"Who knows them if you say that?" Xiong Hongyuan sighed.

For 404, all cooperative units can be said to love and hate.

Love is because the country does not have too many production tasks. The 404 unit that can always find orders has brought them saturated production tasks.

I hate it because this unit is so annoying and I always poach people.

"We should communicate with them, what if there is another big order this time. Our production line is used to produce over-7a, but it still needs to be upgraded." Zhao Kunxi knew the two of them's concerns.

But it is not a solution to continue like this now.

When the leaders of Factory 132 discussed, the 611 factories that also received news did not respond.

Anyway, they designed the fighter jets.

The project seven is not a project of 611, even if it is designed by 611.

When the customer sees it, he will naturally communicate with the design team.

"Did the engine be introduced by the Soviet Union?" The Egyptians did not expect that they thought it was an engine developed by China themselves.

"Yes, we have signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Soviet Union." Huo Haiyuan nodded and said.

"Then how do you make sure we can provide sufficient engines when we need them?" Muhanard questioned Huo Haiyuan.

Huo Haiyuan was speechless for a moment.

Before this, they were still worried that the engine would be in trouble, which would be a great pressure on the design team.

But with customers, people are worried that the engine will not be fully supplied.

"Mr. Minister, you're over-concerned." Xie Kai said with a smile, "Before this, we signed a strategic cooperation agreement with relevant Soviet departments. In addition, some of the two hundred engines have arrived."

"Two hundred units?" The Egyptians were shocked.

The Chinese seem to do something unreasonable in this matter.

"Yes, as long as you purchase no more than 200 units, it is not a problem. Of course, our country and Pakistan also have great demands. This kind of fighter jet can not only undertake combat tasks, but its main function is to serve as a trainer jet." Xie Kai said.

The Egyptians were moved.

I was already moved when I heard Huo Haiyuan’s introduction to some technical aspects.

"Your fighter jets have not completed their first flight yet. There is still a long way to go from first flight to finalized service..."

"Aren't your country preparing to introduce production lines? Before that, you can carry out the construction of production lines first. As soon as we complete the test flight work, your country's production lines will start manufacturing..." Xie Kai said with a grin.

The Egyptians were happy.

But Mubara's brows were tightly twisted together.

If the Egyptians had the production capacity, they would definitely sell this fighter jet to the Middle East as a trainer.

The relationship between the Egyptians and the Middle East countries is much better than that between them and the Middle East countries.

"Thank you, we don't agree with this project!" Mubara reminded Xie Kai. "It is okay to sell fighter jets, and the production line is not within the scope of cooperation we discussed before, right?"

He disagreed, and the Egyptians were not happy.

"General, you found us at the beginning and took the initiative to introduce that China's 7th production line can be sold!" Ariyav said to Mubara dissatisfied.
Chapter completed!
