Chapter 398 You call this business negotiation?(1/2)

Establishing a consortium or something like that is a matter for the future.

The top priority now is to make money, Sean is almost broke.

According to Shen Bi, his more than 400 million yuan is simply not enough, not even enough to sign broadcast rights with the four major leagues.

What's more, Sean still wants to do so many things.

Shen Bi thinks Sean is a very magical person who always tries his best to make himself bankrupt!

In a short period of time, Sean couldn't think of any idea to make a large sum of money quickly. After all, there were not many opportunities like this for Ka Dazuo.

After thinking for a while, Sean decided on the Super Toucan.

The original Super Tucano was produced in Brazil and was put into the market after 2000. It is in service in Brazil, Colombia, Dominica, Chile, Ecuador, Burkina Faso, Angola, Mali, Mauritania, Senegal, Afghanistan and other countries.

In 2013, the United States also ordered 20 aircraft for use in the Afghan battlefield.

This is because the Brazilian government is not strong enough, resulting in poor sales of the aircraft. If it were replaced by Sean... No, if it were replaced by the US government, the sales of the Super Tucano would be better and the price would be higher!

Sean: Are you going to buy it or buy it or buy it?

Buyer: Buy, buy, buy...

This aircraft is an old-fashioned turboprop aircraft, so its take-off and landing performance is very good. In addition to taking off and landing on standard cement runways, it can also take off and land on dirt runways, gravel runways, grass airports and snow-covered runways. This aircraft is very suitable for basic

Small countries with poor infrastructure are more friendly, easier to operate, and safer and more reliable.

Compared with jet aircraft, it has high requirements for runways, infrastructure and pilots, which is too unfriendly to small countries.

In addition to the above advantages, the Super Tucano also has many benefits. The flight cost of a propeller aircraft is only about 400 US dollars per hour. Compared with not only jet aircraft, but also compared with helicopters, the flight cost is much lower.

In addition, the stall speed of this propeller aircraft is only 148 kilometers/hour, which is convenient for low-speed reconnaissance and ground attack. The low fuel consumption allows the Tucano to patrol the air for up to 8 hours, and attack or support the ground at any time. The cruising speed reaches

520 km/h, it can approach the battlefield faster and make it easier to avoid individual anti-aircraft missiles.

It has a longer combat radius, longer combat duration, faster speed, better battlefield survivability, lower fuel consumption, lower operating difficulty, lower maintenance difficulty and maintenance cost than an armed helicopter.

In addition, the larger body allows the Tucano to carry more weapons, including cannon pods, rocket nests, ordinary bombs, cluster bombs, laser-guided bombs, anti-tank missiles, and even infrared combat missiles.

These characteristics make the Super Tucano very suitable for maritime patrol, anti-submarine, anti-terrorism, and anti-guerrilla warfare.

Wu Dalang was a night owl, and he was a bird for everyone. Those small countries were very backward in all aspects, with high frequency of battles and low intensity of battles. Compared with advanced jet fighters, obviously backward propeller aircraft were more suitable.

In places like Africa, South America, Southeast Asia, and Syria, this aircraft will be very easy to sell, and Sean is sure to make a lot of money!

The most important thing is that this is a serious business and legal income.

The word legal is simply too important!



"Building a plane?" David looked at Sean with a strange look, "What kind of plane are you trying to build? I see you are working on a plane!"



"After staying in Africa for a while, your IQ was also infected by those niggas!"

"This is really such a pity!"

"Fighters!" Sean rolled his eyes, but the old man's mouth was still so vicious, "I found a very serious problem in Libya, whether it is those Arabs or niggas, the current jets and armed helicopters are very difficult for them.

It’s all too difficult.”

"Can you imagine a nigga who eats watermelons, walks on cotton, and makes his fortune all by learning to fly a third-generation jet fighter?"

David tilted his head and thought seriously, "I think agricultural aircraft are more suitable for them!"

"So!" Sean spread his hands, "Whether it's an American, European or Soviet aircraft, they are all just big toys to them. I just sold 200 aircraft to Kazuo, which have been discontinued by the Orientals.

The helicopter, whose only weapon is a 12.7mm cannon, is very popular!"

"Moreover, I helped them develop a new method of hovering in the air, holding bombs and throwing them out of the warehouse door. This tactic was unanimously praised!"

Phew, old man David laughed out loud, "Damn it, are they all stupid? They would actually approve such a damn thing."

"Why not?" Sean said matter-of-factly, "That's Africa. Although this tactic is bullshit, their opponents are a group of niggas picking cotton in the cotton fields!"

"Both RPGs and individual anti-aircraft missiles need to have launch angles. Before they can shoot down the aircraft hovering overhead, the tail flames ejected to the ground will burn them to death!"

"Or do you think black African faith shooters can shoot down planes overhead?"

"Well, you really can't ask for so much!" Old David laughed and slapped the table.

After saying it was not a joke, Sean told the whole story about his plan, and talked about the Brazilian Tucano, which is still used as a training aircraft but can carry modern weapons.

The Brazilian Air Force ordered 118 of its own, Egypt ordered 120, 40 for its own use, and the remaining 80 for the Inlac Air Force. The market prospects are broad.

I first heard this from Kadazou when we were in Libya, and it was only then that Sean remembered the Toucan thing.

"It's not impossible. Are you planning to find a Brazilian to cooperate?" David thought for a while and asked.

"No, I plan to go it alone. I don't want them to make money by cooperating with them. This thing has no technical content. I believe that the technical reserves of several American aircraft manufacturers are completely sufficient to manufacture aircraft." Sean shrugged.

"If I can make money myself, why should I share it with the Brazilians?"

David sneered at Sean's idea of ​​a small farmer who liked to do everything by himself and have everything in his hands.

But it doesn't matter, he doesn't mind giving Sean advice.

"Do you know Grumman?"

Sean shook his head.

"They have produced the F6F Hellcat fighter, F7F Tigercat fighter, and F8F Panda fighter. A total of more than 20,000 propeller fighters have been manufactured before and after. Among them, the F7F is a carrier-based type. They have the world's richest propeller fighter manufacturing capabilities and

experience."

"Although their main research and development direction has now changed to jet fighters, the technology accumulation is still there. You can talk to them about cooperating in production, re-establishing a joint venture, or other methods, you can consider it yourself."



Sean's eyes lit up. Having an old man in the family is like having a treasure. Old man David not only knows a lot, but also has a wide network of contacts.

"It's Grumman!" Sean agreed, "Old man, please call!"

Old man David's face turned dark immediately. He was already preparing to kill the donkey before he finished using it!

After scolding Sean a few words, old man David was very harsh in his words, but he picked up the phone and dialed out honestly.

Just like Shen Bi said, Rockefeller secretly held a small amount of shares in Grumman through other financial institutions. Although he did not usually participate in management, it was still useful to say something.

The next day, Sean showed up at Grumman.

Grumman was originally the director of the Loring Company. When the company moved from New York State to Pennsylvania in 2028, Grumman decided to go it alone and bought with several partners a bankrupt 25-year-old factory located in Cox's Creek, Long Island, New York.

Lamming Aircraft Company, renamed: Grumman.

Grumman started out by selling the Grumman FF fighter biplane with retractable landing gear to the U.S. Navy.

The original company is in New York State, the new company is in Long Island, New York, and it can get orders from the U.S. Navy. Isn't it natural that Rockefeller has a stake in it?

During World War II, Grumman's Cat series of fighter jets shone brightly, including the F4F Wildcat, F6F Hellcat, F7F Tigercat, and F8F Panda. Two-thirds of the aircraft lost in Japan were shot down by Grumman products.

.

After World War II, it experienced a period of low ebb, and the most successful product currently is the F-14 Tomcat.

The person who received Sean was Bertie Bazzell, the president of Grumman Corporation, a professional manager. Among Grumman's descendants, there are not very outstanding talents who can control the development of the company.

Bertie Buzzell seemed very enthusiastic. With Sean's current status, even companies with whom he had little contact would not neglect him.

Welcoming Sean into the company with a few entourages, and after a while of greetings, we heard that Sean was very interested in the Cat series of propeller fighters they produced in their early years, so they took Sean to visit the company's museum.

The old aircraft is 40 years ago. No matter how glorious it was back then, the complete aircraft can only be found in museums...

In the aircraft museum, Sean recognized the legendary F6F aircraft at a glance.

The F6F set an unparalleled record, shooting down a total of 5,155 aircraft in less than 2 years.

bidige.

Then there is the F7F Tigercat. Sean knew from Bertie Bazzell's introduction that this aircraft participated in the Battle of Chosin Lake.

When the U.S. military was trapped in a tight siege in the Changjin Lake area, the "Tiger Cats" of the 542nd Squadron helped the main force of the 1st Marine Division withdraw from the hellish Changjin Lake area.

The last is the F8F Panda, which is also the last propeller fighter.

After the visit was completed, Sean explained the purpose of his visit. He wanted to purchase the design information and technology of the "Cat" series of fighter jets.

It is data and technology rather than patents. For things that were created 40 years ago, the patents have long expired. In fact, in the United States, this technology has also expired long ago. As long as there are detailed design drawings and detailed information on various technologies, even if it is

Companies that produce agricultural aircraft can complete production.

In the office, Bertie Bazell was deep in thought. He raised his head and said, "These are all expired technologies. They are not unsaleable, and Mr. Sean also knows that they are not valuable."



"So, I would like to know why Mr. Sean purchased these things?"

Sean thought for a while and said with a smile: "Of course I plan to produce it to make money, otherwise, I wouldn't want to make a big toy."

Bertie Buzzell looked confused, "This old airplane? Make money? Sorry, sir, I'm not questioning you, I just, it's just hard to imagine what it would be like for this kind of old-fashioned grandpa airplane to participate in combat."

Look."
