Now, only Boeing and Airbus are able to develop large wide-body passenger aircraft in the world. With the improvement of the economy, civil aviation has become increasingly urgent for new passenger aircraft, so it will buy a new Boeing 747. If the purchase is stopped and the products of European Airbus are transferred, Boeing will lose a lot.

Under the strong protests of China, the United States still did not stop selling arms to Wanwan. Bush made up his mind this time and wanted to support Wanwan. However, in order to explain to China, the United States sold F16 to Wanwan and made some simplifications.

In addition to the engine being replaced by a j79 turbojet engine, the ability to accurately attack the ground was blocked and could only carry ordinary ground attack bombs, and the Blue Shield pod was cancelled. In this way, it was exchanged for China's understanding and also laid the groundwork for the future. In a few years, the United States can make another big profit by upgrading the fighter jets to the Bay Bay.

Like later generations, the United States upgraded the F16 to Bay Bay, and the upgrade fee for each aircraft was as high as 50 million US dollars, far exceeding the original value of the aircraft!

However, at Wanwan's request, the United States sold four more e2 early warning aircraft to Wanwan and integrated the data link with F16. Therefore, although the aircraft was simplified, the Wanwans were still very happy to accept it.

Early warning aircraft! This is a multiplier of air combat power! Wanwan has obtained an early warning aircraft and can monitor the operation of the Chinese Air Force across the strait almost above Wanwan. Wanwan was happy and finally realized that the stepfather of the US imperial concubine began to take care of them again.

Huang Xiaozong was busy representing Wanwan to negotiate the introduction of F16 fighter jets, while Xia Hanmin represented Wanwan and went to the Soviet Union again.

Wanwan has paid one billion US dollars and has only received four fighter jets. This subsequent fee. Should the Soviets refund part of it?

With this idea, after Huang Xiaozong came to the Soviet Union, he hoped to meet with the top Soviet leaders and discuss the funds. However, he waited for two or three days in the Soviet Union before an official came to meet him.

"Mr. Ivanov, this time I am here to discuss our contract." Xia Hanmin said: "Due to pressure from the United States, we will have to terminate our military purchase contract."

Ivanov was just a clerk in the Soviet Equipment Department. Facing Xia Hanmin, he said coldly: "Mr. Xia, this is your problem and has nothing to do with us."

"Yes. It's our problem. We didn't realize that the United States actually knew our plan." Xia Hanmin said: "We are willing to bear certain losses. At the beginning, we discussed 35 million US dollars per fighter jet. Now we have received four fighter jets, which should be 140 million US dollars. We are willing to pay 200 million US dollars and return the remaining 800 million US dollars to us. How about it?"

Wanwan realized his mistake and was willing to bear part of the losses. He only wanted to return the remaining part. Originally, they planned to send these four Su27s back, but probably the Soviets would not want them, so they gritted their teeth and gave them more to the Soviets.

"Mr. Xia. After receiving your order, our factory in Gongqingcheng started construction day and night. Now, twenty Su27 fighter jets have been made. Now, you have unilaterally tore up the contract. Our subsequent fighter jets can no longer be delivered and can only be kept in the open air." Ivanov said: "If you want to get the remaining funds back, that's fine. After receiving our twenty Su27 fighter jets, let's talk about the remaining ones, each with 35 million. Our Soviet Union is honest and will never take advantage of your dollar."

Twenty aircraft! In the end, the billion dollars are almost gone! Xia Hanmin was in a mess and originally planned to get some funds back to buy American fighter jets. Now, the Soviets have made up their minds and will not spit it out if they come into their mouths.

Moreover, the other party is not cheating, he just found such an excuse.

"This, can't the fighter jets you have built also be equipped with your army?" Xia Hanmin said.

"Of course not. Our army's orders have been completed. The army will have new orders at least the year after tomorrow. Our factory now produces military aircraft for foreign trade." Ivanov said: "If you refuse to accept them, then you have to find a new buyer for this batch of military aircraft."

Xia Hanmin was in a mess. They accepted the situation even if they had taken 800 million US dollars or even 500 million US dollars. But now, the Soviet Union's attitude will not be returned to Wanwan at all!

Wanwan will no longer accept those fighter planes. What a joke, will it be a slap in the face? The Soviets will not refund the deposit. In this way, it seems that Wanwan suffered a big loss.

"Then, what should we do?" Xia Hanmin asked.

"Anyway, we need to find new buyers for the newly produced twenty fighter jets," said Ivanov. "Only in this way can we return the remaining funds to you. However, the maintenance costs for these new fighter jets before finding new buyers must be paid by you."

Only when Xia Hanmin heard the other party say this, he relaxed. This is OK, but...

“When do you expect to find a new buyer?”

"I can't say that I can find it tomorrow, or it may be next year, the year after tomorrow, or even the year after tomorrow." Ivanov said.

This sentence once again made Xia Hanmin fall to the bottom, and it is still the same as not saying it!

"If you can't wait, you can find a new buyer," said Ivanov. "Anyway, we deliver it for $35 million. You can sell these fighter jets to third parties and send them directly to us."

It seems that this method is the only way. Although Xia Hanmin knows that this is actually very difficult, it is better than nothing.

Xia Hanmin left the Soviet Union in disappointment and returned to Wanwan. He was scolded by Mr. Li of Wanwan. After all, this project was planned and contacted by Xia Hanmin, and he had to bear the main responsibility!

Xia Hanmin could only make a promise to find the next home as soon as possible and receive these hot Su27 fighter jets, but he soon discovered that it was too difficult!

Su-27's failure experience in the Afghan battlefield has made many potential buyers skeptical, and only countries with the Warsaw Pact system can buy it.

Xia Hanmin lobbled everywhere but found no suitable buyers, but the news has spread out in the world's arms smuggling market.

It started drizzling in Taipei. Sitting in the study room and looking at the rain outside, Xia Hanmin was still very upset.

"Dong, dong." At this moment, a knock on the door came from outside.

"Who?" Xia Hanmin asked.

"It's Master Four." The housekeeper had already gone to open the door. When he saw the car parked outside the door, he knew that Master Four was coming.

"So it's the fourth brother!" Xia Hanmin walked out and looked at the car outside. In addition to the fourth brother getting out of the inside, there were two people who got off. The two of them had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and their noses were a little high. They looked like they were not locals.

The fourth brother is a classmate in Xia Hanmin’s dormitory when he was in college. He is ranked fourth brother. After graduating from college, Xia Hanmin and the fourth brother were both in Taipei, with the closest contact and lasted for more than 20 years.

"Hanmin, these are my two friends." The fourth brother said, "I have a business to negotiate with you."

After entering the study room, several people sat down. Xia Hanmin looked at each other and always felt familiar.

"Mr. Xia." The other party said in a stiff Chinese: "I heard that you have a batch of Su27 fighter jets to be sold on your hands, so we are very interested."

Su 27! The other party needs Su 27! This solves his urgent need! Xia Hanmin immediately showed a happy expression: "How much do you want?"

"You need as much as you have." The other party said.

How much does it cost? One billion US dollars corresponds to twenty-eight fighter jets! Just sell them all to the other party, so that the Soviets would not get any extra profit! So Xia Hanmin immediately said: "We have twenty-eight fighter jets, and we need to sell them all."

Then we will ask for four more from the Soviets!

"Okay, each aircraft has 10 million US dollars, and these 28 aircraft are 28 million." The other party said.

The smile on Xia Hanmin's face instantly solidified, each aircraft was 10 million? Is this too little? When I bought it, it was 35 million US dollars per aircraft!

"Is this... the price a little low?" Xia Hanmin said to the other party.

"We are arms dealers." The other party said: "If we acquire it at the market price, what will we make?" The other party said happily: "The price of smuggling fighter jets like ours will not exceed 15 million US dollars, and we will only make several million US dollars per aircraft. Mr. Xia, if you think it is not suitable, then we don't have to do this business."

"But..." Xia Hanmin wanted to say something, but the other party had already pushed an envelope: "Mr. Xia, this time I came, just treat it as making friends. If our deal can be reached, we will also express our gratitude."

Seeing them get up and leave, Lao Si also left. The group returned to the car. Watching them walk away, Xia Hanmin returned to his study and opened the envelope. Inside it was a bank card of a Taiwan bank with six zero passwords.

Enter the computer and after searching, Xia Hanmin's eyes widened again, and there were NT$500 million in it!

Anyway, if the batch of Su 27s are not sold, our own funds will definitely not be able to be collected. Since this is the case, selling those Su 27s at a low price will cost a little, but it can also recover nearly 300 million US dollars of funds. It seems to be good! Apart from this, there is no better way.
Chapter completed!
