Jiang Yong's ears perked up when he mentioned the army.
Anyone who has served as a soldier has a deep affection for the troops. Jiang Yong has been on the battlefield, and his affection for the troops is even deeper.
He knew what Wu Ning was here for, and cast an expectant look at Yao Yuan, but he was self-aware, so he would not speak about it.
Wu Ning was very embarrassed. He was very reluctant to open his mouth to Yao Yuan. He knew how much risk Yao Yuan took to earn his money.
However, it was not appropriate for anyone else to talk about this matter except him, and it was his duty to talk about the important matters of the military and the country.
Surprisingly, Yao Yuan almost didn't think about it and asked directly, "How much?"
Wu Ning was stunned for a moment, Jiang Yong smiled happily, and his dead face returned to his face.
Wu Ning said, "Two hundred million dollars."
"Two hundred million..." Yao Yuan muttered.
Wu Ning was mentally prepared and said quickly, "One hundred million is fine."
Yao Yuan was stunned. Knowing that Wu Ning had misunderstood, he smiled and said, "Two hundred million is not enough."
He analyzed and said, "The military industry is the core of heavy industry, and I still know something about it. The Russians should have requirements for the purchase quantity. If the quantity is not enough, they may not transfer technology."
Buying a production line must include technology transfer, otherwise it will be of no use to you if we give you a production line.
Wu Ning breathed a sigh of relief and nodded excitedly, "Yes, yes, the country almost emptied its wealth to squeeze out so much foreign exchange for the troops. Alas, Russia has changed so much that the previous methods no longer work.
, you have to see the money, and the price is difficult to negotiate.”
Even if he didn't say it, Yao Yuan also knew how much foreign exchange the army had. As a master in the field of industrial technology, he could not avoid dealing with the army. Moreover, many high-precision projects were entrusted by the army to jointly develop them. Yao Yuan knew the situation of the army very well.
Yao Yuan said, “To do it all would cost an estimated US$1.2 billion.”
Wu Ning was startled, "Well, then there can't be forty-eight fights?"
Yao Yuan knew the price. The unit price of the Su-27 was about US$25 million. This was US$25 million in the 1990s. It was really expensive. China had no choice, because Western countries banned sales to China, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and introduce it.
Su-27, this is the only option.
The army hoped to achieve the goal in one step, introduce the size of two regiments, and introduce production lines and technology at the same time, but it far exceeded the budget.
If we follow the historical trajectory, the result was a compromise. Two regiments of Su-27s were introduced in batches, and the production line and technology were introduced later, which delayed seven or eight years.
For the troops, what they lack is time, and their equipment has lagged far behind.
Now, with Yao Yuan, the trajectory has changed.
Yao Yuan said seriously, "Counsellor Wu, it is my duty to support national defense construction. My personal suggestion is to do it in one step. Fighters and production lines for the two regiments will be introduced at the same time. I can provide 2 billion US dollars."
Wu Ning was completely stunned.
Even Jiang Yong, who had always had a dead face, was moved, with tears actually appearing in his eyes. He had fought in a war and knew the significance of advanced equipment, which was related to the casualties of thousands of soldiers.
"Counsellor Wu, I don't have any additional conditions. I don't even need to consider the interest. I just need to return the Chinese currency according to the official exchange rate. I can pay it back in as many installments as I want. Even if I pay it back in ten or twenty years, I won't."
Two words." Yao Yuan said loudly.
Wu Ning stared at Yao Yuan, knowing that he was not joking.
However, 2 billion US dollars... this figure is too shocking.
He knew how much Yao Yuan had profited from this battle, about 3 billion U.S. dollars, and now he didn't want to directly spend 2 billion U.S. dollars.
Would you have done this if you didn't have the heart to contribute to national defense and serve the country wholeheartedly?
Wu Ning took a deep breath and stood up slowly, "Mr. Yao, on behalf of the army, I bow to you."
He said and bowed deeply.
Yao Yuan quickly stood up and stopped him, and said sincerely, "Counsellor Wu, my grandfather is an old revolutionary, my second grandfather is a veteran, and my father has also been a soldier. Although I failed to join the army, I have a stronger affection for the army than many people."
deep."
"This is about national defense, not business. I should go all out."
Wu Ning wiped away his tears and kept nodding, "Mr. Yao, I had some misunderstandings about you before. It's because my eyes are shallow. I solemnly apologize to you."
"We are friends, we don't have to be like this."
Wu Ning calmed down and said, "I will go back and report now and ask the relevant person in charge to come over."
"Call me and I'll come over." Yao Yuan certainly couldn't let the relevant person in charge come to his door in person.
"Okay, that's fine!"
Wu Ning was so excited that he wanted to start trotting.
After returning to the room after breakfast, Jiang Yong suddenly stood in front of Yao Yuan and saluted Yao Yuan, "Xiao Yuan, thank you!"
"Brother Yong, please say goodbye. Why are you still seeing me?" Yao Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly stood at attention and returned the courtesy.
Jiang Yong said seriously, "I thank you on behalf of the brothers in the army."
"Okay, Brother Yong, let's not talk about this between us." Yao Yuan suddenly thought of something and asked, "Brother Yong, do you want to return to the army? I'll talk to them and there should be no problem."
Jiang Yong unexpectedly shook his head, "No, what should be done has been done, and I will fulfill my filial piety."
One sentence almost made Yao Yuan and Lin Xiaohu break their defense.
"Okay, okay, I understand." Yao Yuan nodded slowly.
Lin Xiaohu poured the wine and brought it over, "Brother Yong, I'm done."
After saying that, he poured it directly into his throat. Jiang Yong did not hesitate and drank it in one gulp. The two of them drank the full vodka as morning tea, and Yao Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.
Jiang Yong and Lin Xiaohu are the same type of people. The management of athletes is also militarized and they are similar to each other. The way of expressing emotions between this type of people is simple and crude. They disdain words and can only express them through actions.
Yao Yuan called Yu Yongan and Lu Sen, and they arrived quickly.
Yao Yuan said directly, "I want 2 billion US dollars to be transferred to a Swiss bank account."
"When?" Yu Yongan asked unequivocally.
Since the victory, he has completely given up on Yao Yuan. He will never question any of Yao Yuan's instructions and will never discount them. Now, he is no longer beaming, but has a sense of returning to his original nature.
"The faster, the better." Yao Yuan said.
"Understood, is there any big move?" Yu Yongan asked.
Using such a huge amount of funds must be a big move, and Yu Yongan couldn't help but get excited.
Lu Sen didn't say anything nonsense and made a call on the spot to arrange the funds. The money was scattered and it took time to mobilize. Yao Yuan's Swiss account only had less than 1 billion US dollars.
Yao Yuan smiled and said to Yu Yong'an, "It's a loss-making business, but don't worry, I'll pay for it and you can help me run away."
"A Yuan, stop joking, how can you do a loss-making business?" Since what happened last time, Yu Yong'an's mentality has changed a lot, and his name for Yao Yuan has changed, making him look closer. This shows that he is
He truly regarded himself as a person related to Yao Yuan.
Yao Yuan said seriously, "Really, you will definitely lose money, but it's not a business."
