Start from 1980

Chapter 606 Acceptance
Frank regained his energy in an instant, and said, "Beautiful girl, if you want to buy an airplane, you can come to us. Even if Boeing doesn't have a suitable airplane for you, we will recommend reliable customers to you."

"Okay, let's talk in detail later." Cao Jiaxin nodded.

The reason why she didn't ask just now is because Frank kept recommending to Hu Yizhou just now, but she didn't intervene much, so she just took the time to ask now.

And the people in the Chinese procurement group immediately felt turbulent again.

It is really too rich to even buy a plane. You must know that many leaders in China rarely fly by plane. Unless they are senior leaders, many people have to travel by train.

Looking at Cao Jiaxin at this time, it was like seeing Tang Wanru back then, exuding the charm of money all over her body.

Cao Jiaxin was not worried that these people would spread her words back to the country. She saw Xu Ling who was on the side hesitated to speak, so she explained in a low voice:
"Shengshi has a lot of business. If we take a car, it will delay our business, so I want to ask Boeing if they can sell us a cheap plane."

"And we have to pretend that we are not short of money, so that the ghost will think highly of us. If we want to buy an airplane next time, it must be cheaper and the scene must be sufficient."

"So that's how it is." Xu Ling suddenly realized.

Frank went on to introduce: "My Chinese friends, these four planes are the ones we have already produced. God has witnessed that after receiving your order, our workers have been working overtime, and finally these four planes have been produced. .”

"But because of the relationship between time and contract, we will go to China to produce the next three planes together with your workers, so you only need to see the remaining three planes in China."

"As you can see, I believe you have all seen the performance of this aircraft, and in order to demonstrate its performance, we will build some projects with you after the aircraft returns to China, so that you can really understand it practicality."

"In short, my friends, your money has not been wasted."

Indeed, no matter what Frank said, it had better be seen with his own eyes.

Although the money was not paid by the state, the purchasing group did not dare to take it lightly.

Hu Yizhou said: "It should be so. We are here this time because we are carrying out the task of laying out the transmission line across the Yangtze River, so we can use this opportunity to test the performance of your aircraft."

Frank was full of confidence: "Hu, don't worry, you will definitely be satisfied. Since we dare to show it, we won't lie to you with inferior products. Otherwise, how can Boeing survive?"

"As I said, its practicality can only be known by testing it in China, so after returning to China, our pilots will strictly follow your requirements to demonstrate the superior level of this aircraft."

"But right now, we can still test the flight here, so you can rest assured."

Originally, many people wanted to make a request for a test flight, but it happened that Frank asked, that would be the best.

Just as Hu Yizhou was about to go up, a subordinate named Zhou Jianhua immediately stopped him: "Hu Ju, you'd better not go up, if something happens..."

"If I don't go up, how can I rest assured?" Hu Yizhou frowned: "The country assigned me this task, so I have to complete it, otherwise how can I explain to my superiors after I go back? How can I explain to the country?"

"This..." Zhou Jianhua hesitated, "But, we don't know if it's safe or not."

Hu Yizhou's expression became serious: "It's better to throw me to death here than to return to China and let our pilot have an accident. That's the deal!"

In addition to the part of the Chinese procurement group, Frank and the executives he brought are also preparing to board the plane to demonstrate the safety of this aircraft.

When the plane left the workshop, people from Boeing came over and gave everyone a brief training, nothing more than some precautions on the plane and so on.

……

Part of the Chinese procurement group boarded the plane, and one part stayed on the ground to observe with binoculars.

After getting on the plane, Frank began to introduce again: "Guys, it is a wise decision for you to choose this 234MLR."

"Really, I don't even know what words to use to describe its perfection, it uses fiberglass composite blades, its initial cost is much higher than metal, but it takes 25% less time to manufacture, and the maintenance in service 71% reduction in costs.

... The overall layout consists of two tandem counter-rotating 3-blade rotors, each with 2 blades that can be folded manually.The four-point landing gear cannot be retracted.

The power unit has two AL5512 turboshaft engines, and the maximum take-off power of a single unit is 3039 kilowatts...the practical ceiling is 4570 meters..."

After talking about a lot of data, don’t look at the Chinese procurement team that looks like a group of people sitting in the office.

But it included several people who knew the plane well.

Each one seriously asked for data about the aircraft.

Frank said: "Guys, the maximum allowable speed of this aircraft is 172 miles per hour, which is 278 kilometers, and the maximum cruising speed is 610 miles per hour when the altitude is 167 meters..."

After listening to Frank's introduction, these experts in the aircraft field whispered to each other.

A few more key questions were asked, and if Frank could not answer them, Boeing engineers would answer them.

After chatting for a while.

Frank said: "Believe me, you will never regret choosing this plane. I'm sure, this is definitely a great plane. If it wasn't for my work, I would really like to take it out every day." stroll."

While speaking, there was a reminder that the pilot was about to take off.

After a slight shake, the plane took off.

This heavy-duty, fast-flying, durable aircraft takes off from the open field, flies into the air, and then demonstrates various maneuvers, such as hovering.

Walk around in the air and return to the ground.

After getting off the plane, Frank said: "How is it? Guys, I believe you must fall in love with it, right? So your choice is wise. According to our unconventional tests, it can perform passenger, cargo and other specialized tasks. .

Such as offshore oilfield and natural gas drilling platform support, remote resource development, lifting, logging and construction, sea and land search and rescue, aerial fire fighting, port evacuation, disaster relief, laying of transmission lines, pipeline construction and repair, etc. "

"It will definitely meet your needs."

The members of the Chinese procurement team also communicated with each other. Anyway, they are not paying the money. As long as they pass the performance test of the aircraft, these aircraft can be directly shipped back to China.

Hu Yizhou said: "Mr. President, I need to exchange opinions with my team."

"Okay, Hu, I'll wait for your good news." With a smile on his face, Frank turned his head to look at Cao Jiaxin: "You said just now that you want to buy a business jet, but what kind of business jet do you want to buy? Let's show it off. Can we talk in the hall?"
