Great warships

Chapter 193 A mouthful of old blood spewed out
"I'm sorry." Qin Tao said: "Excuse me, interrupt, are you sure you put the slide correctly? Why did you put our design drawing out?"

Rodriguez felt a tightness in his chest.

Obviously it was Qin Tao and the others who copied their design, but now, the other party actually said that they used their design?

What is this called!
This is of course called the villain’s first complaint. Looking at Rodriguez’s appearance, Qin Tao felt extremely refreshed. Hehe, when we introduced you just now, you kept picking faults. Now, it’s your turn to play. Watch how I play with you!

Rodriguez's face was extremely ugly. If he had changed the place, he would definitely rush up and fight Qin Tao, but now, he can only restrain himself.

"This design drawing was modified by our team based on the design drawing of our own Prince of Asturias aircraft carrier. It is completely our own design. As for why it is similar to your design drawing, Mr. Qin, I really don't know. I want to ask you guys."

"What do you mean by that?" Qin Tao said, "I don't understand!"

"We suspect that you stole our design drawings and used them to bid!"

Anyway, there is nothing to talk about the blueprint, because it is almost the same as Qin Tao's blueprint, so let's just splash dirty water on it.

"When did your design drawings start?" Qin Tao asked.

"A month ago, when the news came out that Siam wanted a light aircraft carrier, we started designing, and we worked for a whole month!" Rodriguez made an angry look.

When did your Mingzhou shipyard build an aircraft carrier?Where did the experience come from?Didn't they copy us?
Qin Tao smiled: "Thank you for returning our innocence. One and a half months ago, when His Excellency Lacour went to our country to discuss the F-26T frigate, we showed our design drawings to His Excellency Lacour, and at the same time , He also brought back a few drawings, and he can prove that we have completed the design drawings of this aircraft carrier a month and a half ago!"

You started preparations a month ago, and we completed the design drawings a month and a half ago, so whoever copied who’s, needless to say?
Rodriguez was dumbfounded for a moment: "This is impossible!"

On the stage, the big man sighed, and then took out a blueprint from the briefcase he brought: "That's right, Mr. Qin is right, one and a half months ago, when Lacourt came back from a business trip, he brought We came back with the design drawing, and it was precisely because of this design drawing that we were inspired, so we decided to launch the tender for the aircraft carrier. You can put this design drawing on a slide projector to have a look."

Although it is not the film used in optical slide projectors, after all, the performance of optical projectors in this era is very powerful. Now, after the image was printed, Evans couldn't help but speak when he saw this shape.

"That's right, this design drawing is very similar to the design drawing of the Bazin Company. I never expected that a famous European shipyard would do such a thing!" Evans has no tasks now, so he can also joke about it up.

This big man will never lie, moreover, he took out the design drawings from his briefcase and got them a month ago. The Bazin Company was able to bid here because of the design drawings from Mingzhou Shipyard. , aroused the interest of Siam.

To put it more clearly, the country of Siam has already taken the design of the Mingzhou Shipyard. When other companies come to bid, it is mostly just a formality, unless there is a particularly good plan.

I don't know if the blueprint of Bazin was really stolen from Mingzhou Shipyard. If so, it would be too shameless, but even if it wasn't, they can still publicize it when they go back. .

Bazin Company used the design drawings of Mingzhou Shipyard and accused the other party of plagiarism. They were forced to bow their heads until the big shots in Siam showed proof. What a joke this should be. After returning, vigorously Propaganda, screw up their Bazin shipyard!
Rodriguez was dumbfounded. He only felt the rumble in his mind. He did a lot of research, but he just didn't know why Siam suddenly wanted a light aircraft carrier without warning.

Now I understand that it was originally promoted by the Mingzhou Shipyard.

Just now, he accused Mingzhou Shipyard of stealing the design drawings. Now, if someone really stole who, then their Bazin Company is also that clown!

"Did you refer to the design drawings of our aircraft carrier Prince of Asturias?" At this time, Rodriguez could only find the steps.

Qin Tao shook his head: "No, we don't have your aircraft carrier design drawings, how could we refer to it? Forget it, even if something goes wrong, we will admit it. After we go back, we will check ourselves."

What Qin Tao said was as if Bazin had stolen their blueprints, and they didn't pursue it.

Rodriguez felt more and more oppressed in his chest.

"Now, let's continue the introduction." He managed to calm his mood, and then continued: "We are based on carrying Sea Harrier fighter jets and medium-sized helicopters..."

"The design of this power system is too backward, isn't it? Single shaft and single propeller, if something goes wrong, the aircraft carrier will be completely slumped. Although we have to consider cost factors and try to reduce the cost, some things cannot Save it." Qin Tao interrupted suddenly.

The aircraft carrier Prince of Asturias uses two gas turbines, which are transmitted to the rear propeller after being merged. This is the traditional single-axis single-propeller layout. Bazin has long discovered the disadvantages of this design, but , In just one month, they changed the aircraft carrier to a smaller size to bid, so they didn't take into account too much, so they didn't change the aircraft carrier's power system to double shafts and sculls.

Now, Qin Tao suddenly discovered this defect in the design drawing, and immediately brought it up.

Rodriguez cast an angry look.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't imitate someone, it's impolite to always interrupt when others are speaking, you go on, go on!"

But at this time, several people on the rostrum had already started to mutter. Obviously, they had also discovered this problem.

The design drawings of Bazin and Qin Tao are roughly the same, but there is a slight difference in the power system.

The other party did not engage in diesel-fuel combination. In this way, regardless of high speed or low speed, gas turbines must be used, which is very expensive. Especially, it is still a single propeller. If the propeller is broken, the aircraft carrier will not be able to move.

The design of modern warships is multi-axis and multi-propeller, so that it is convenient to deal with emergencies.

Hearing these people's mutterings, Rodriguez quickly said: "We only spent a month modifying the design drawings, which was relatively hasty. If we want to change it to two-axis sculls, there is no problem."

"Hmph." Qin Tao made a sound from his nostrils.

Rodriguez's eyes were burning: "President Qin, what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. You can continue talking. I can't interrupt your explanation." Qin Tao was very polite, but judging by his expression, shaking his head, what did he mean? Isn't it clear?
Their Bazin company has no skills, so they will copy it. If it is changed in this way, it will be no different from the design drawing of Mingzhou Shipyard!It's completely out of a mold!
"Crack!" Rodriguez couldn't bear it any longer, put the next few slides on the table, and stopped explaining. He looked at the people on the rostrum and said, "Everyone, our Bazin Company is bringing We come here with sincerity. We have already built the aircraft carrier Prince of Asturias. We have rich experience. We can use our construction experience to build this aircraft carrier. As long as you choose our shipyard, we will provide the best Good treatment. In terms of price, we are willing to quote 5000 million. In terms of carrier aircraft, we can also provide our own AV-8S carrier aircraft. In terms of matching, we have a unique advantage. They Mingzhou Shipbuilding The factory has never built an aircraft carrier and has no experience. If you choose them, you may not be able to hand over the project in eight years, but we can build it in five years."

Rodriguez was completely anxious.

"It's inappropriate to use belittling others to bid, isn't it?" Qin Tao said, "We never belittle our competitors. We can only provide customers with the most affordable solutions. For the sake of customers, even if customers choose us We will also congratulate our opponents."

Qin Tao continued to speak there, and he could immediately tell who was high and who was low.

Qin Tao has the unique temperament of the big oriental country all over his body. We are the most sincere, friendly, and aboveboard!
"To build a 1000-ton aircraft carrier, we only need three years. In terms of cost, under the same configuration, we will always be 9000 million lower than our competitors. If valued customers choose to purchase various weapons and power systems by themselves If so, we can lower the price to [-] million!"

Just now, Qin Tao quoted 5000 million. Now, this competitor also quoted 5000 million, so Qin Tao dropped 1000 million.

If it is only for the 1000 million, it may not be able to impress the Siamese people, but Qin Tao has other foreshadowing.

The aircraft carrier project was proposed by Qin Tao, and he made the design first. The carrier aircraft, he also proposed the Yak-141 that people are looking forward to. All the foreshadowing has been done. I feel that the value for money is excellent.

"Although we are building an aircraft carrier for the first time, our navy has already ordered one, so the quality will definitely be guaranteed. Moreover, our shipyard has always aimed at innovation. We have built built the first domestic dredger, the first river-sea ship, and the first liquefied gas ship." Qin Tao smiled: "Especially the liquefied gas ship, there are not many countries in the world that can build it. Rodriguez Your Excellency, your Bazin shipyard is famous in Europe, have you built all these ships?"

Although we have never built an aircraft carrier, we are also fully capable. Has the Bazin Shipyard ever built a dredger?Have you ever built a liquefied gas ship?
Rodriguez's chest was oppressed to the limit, he opened his mouth, and just wanted to say something, but in his throat, a bloody taste surged, and then he was surprised to see that the red liquid came from him He sprayed it out of his mouth and sprayed it on the table in front of him. On the slide projector, a piece of scarlet appeared on the projection screen.

Rodriguez only felt that everything in front of him was shaking, and then his body collapsed.

"The meeting is suspended!" Looking at the situation, Naris shouted loudly, and then called the big shots around him to leave quickly.

Zheng Ming and Yang Dawei were all looking at all this with surprised eyes. They had heard about Qin Tao's power, but they didn't expect that he would be so powerful, making his competitors vomit blood with anger!
The British plan was too expensive. France had no experience in designing small aircraft carriers, so they never came. Their main competitor was Spain. Now, the bidding was almost settled.

(Actually, there is a similar small aircraft carrier, the Garibaldi of the Noodle Country Navy, but because of World War II, the Noodle Country cannot have an aircraft carrier, so the Garibaldi was in service at the beginning of its service, except for a few occasions of NATO joint exercises. The harrier fighters that belong to it take off and land outside, and do not carry sea harriers, only equipped with helicopters, where they are also called aviation cruisers.)
Only Zhao Ling was not surprised. She knew that Qin Tao was very powerful, so no matter what happened, there was no need to be surprised.

Because Rodriguez vomited blood, the meeting had to be suspended. Qin Tao looked at Rodriguez who was being carried away on a stretcher, and was very enthusiastic: "My friend, what's wrong with you? If you are not healthy, you can rest, can't Your health has been affected by work! Look, because of you, the meeting has to be temporarily suspended. After you go back, take a good rest and wish you a speedy recovery!"

The rest of the Bazin company were looking at Qin Tao with angry eyes. Didn't Qin Tao know why their representatives vomited blood?

However, Qin Tao spoke like this, and they couldn't argue with Qin Tao, otherwise it would be too impolite. After all, this is not Europe, not Spain.

After going back to each other, after lunch and entering the hotel room, Yang Dawei immediately asked Qin Tao, "Mr. Qin, why is Bazin's plan the same as ours?"

When he saw Rodriguez's slideshow, Yang Dawei became nervous. He remembered the previous leak incident. Could it be that the same thing happened again in his design department?

"It's just the same goal by different routes." Qin Tao said: "In the world, there are only a few design plans for aircraft carriers. If you want to fly a sea harrier, you only have [-] tons. The shape and outline are almost the same in the end."

Of course, Qin Tao couldn't say that he followed Bazin's plan. However, there are really not many aircraft carrier designs in this world.

Take a look at Lao Maozi's latest nuclear-powered heavy-duty aircraft-carrying cruiser. Is it similar in shape to an American aircraft carrier?
What special shape can a light aircraft carrier have?

Back then, the Bazin company spent a lot of effort in developing the aircraft carrier Prince of Asturias for their own navy. After all, they had never built such a thing before.

In 1973, the Spanish Navy decided to build a light cruiser to replace the already too old heavy cruiser "Canarias".But this plan was not carried forward. In 1977, the light cruiser originally planned to be built became a light aircraft carrier to replace the "Labyrinth".

Bazin has no experience in building aircraft carriers, and is unwilling to hand over to other countries to build them, so they can only figure it out by themselves.

Fortunately, they have the help of the Americans.

In 1969, the U.S. Navy proposed the design concept of a sea-manufacturing ship, which was somewhat similar to the escort aircraft carrier during World War II. This warship can carry V/STOL (vertical/short take-off and landing aircraft) aircraft and anti-submarine helicopters to protect trade. Ships are impervious to enemy submarines and aircraft, and at very low cost.

The U.S. Navy has studied it one after another for many years, but in 1975, the grand masters of Congress waved their hands and cut it off!As a result, this kind of warship was abandoned, but this idea just fit the plan of the Spanish Navy.

Therefore, the Bazin company bought the drawings, and in 1977, after they made corresponding modifications to the design drawings such as adding a ski jump deck, they started construction.

Because it was the first construction, they took a long time. The construction started in June 1979, the keel was laid in October, and it was launched in 6. It was not completed until 10.

The first ship had no experience, so it took ten years. On the second ship, they finally had experience and planned to build it in five years, but Qin Tao was so arrogant that he promised to only spend three years. !
At this time, Qin Tao said that the design of the aircraft carrier leads to the same goal, and that is how Yang Dawei was comforted. However, Zheng Ming hesitated and said, "Boss Qin, it took three years to build the aircraft carrier. Isn't it too late?"

"Yeah, it's indeed a bit rushed, but what we want to build is just a shell. Those weapons and equipment are all returned to Siam for reassembly. I said three years to deliver the ship to them. The follow-up supporting equipment is none of our business."

Only then did Zheng Ming realize that Qin Tao was playing word games!
This cannot be blamed on our own side. After all, the Siamese country looks down on our own weapons and equipment. If they want better ones, they can only purchase them from the West and install them in Siamese country.The Sea Rattlesnakes do have them, but the problem is that the Siamese have never used legal weapons, so they probably don't like them.

For the rest, let them coordinate on their own.

It's just a shell, and Qin Tao has the experience of his previous life, so there will be no problem with this order.

"Boss Qin, the matter about the carrier-based aircraft..."

"We are serious about carrier-based aircraft, and we are serious about building a similar type of aircraft carrier." Qin Tao's answer is unquestionable.

"President Qin, what's next? Should we just wait?"

Qin Tao smiled: "Of course not. If you just wait, the order will probably be rejected. After all, other competitors will not just sit back and watch the order be taken by us."

Shopping malls are like battlefields. This huge bill of hundreds of millions of dollars is watched by many people, especially Bazin Company. Seeing the ducks in their hands fly away, can you not be anxious?
The opponent will play tricks!

"Then what should we do?" Zheng Ming was a little nervous. When bidding before, it wasn't so bloody!

Qin Tao smiled: "Next, of course we will split up."

Hotel, swimming pool.

A beautiful woman was swimming in it like a mermaid. When she came up after swimming a lap, she just sat on a chair by the pool and saw Qin Tao and Zhao Ling. She immediately raised her arms to say hello.

"Qin, Zhao, hello!" Jaina said with a smile.

As a young actress, Gianna can also speak some simple English.

Last time, Zhao Ling helped out, and then went out shopping, Zhao Ling bought her a lot of things, so after returning, Jaina has already regarded Zhao Ling as her best friend.

After all, in a polygamous country, it is impossible to improve a woman's status. Even if she is an unknown actress and very beautiful, she still cannot get much material satisfaction from Lacourt.

She is full of affection for Qin Tao and Zhao Ling.

She didn't dare to wear the swimsuit last time, but she still likes bikinis, just don't wear straps.

"Jianna, hello, you swim really well!" Zhao Ling said complimentingly.

"Zhao, you swim well too."

"Then let's go down and swim again?"

"Okay."

Jaina was very enthusiastic about Zhao Ling, the two girls went swimming together, and Qin Tao sat on the chair alone.

An exquisite handbag was placed on the table next to it. It was brought by Jaina when she was swimming. In this kind of high-end place, you don't have to worry about losing things, the waiter is watching at the door.

Qin Tao said hello: "Waiter, drink!"

The waiter turned to get it.

Sukhothai Hotel.

"Damn it, how could they have our design drawings!" a middle-aged man roared.

Alessandro, the designer of Bazin Company, he led the people to make the blueprint. Unexpectedly, it was the same as the competitor's blueprint!
This makes them absolutely intolerable.

Rodriguez is still in the intensive care unit of the hospital. Although the problem is not serious, it is obvious that he can no longer have too much mood swings. Therefore, Alessandro, who has not spoken at the meeting, becomes the remaining staff in the backbone.

"Yeah, they must have stolen our blueprints, but how could they steal our blueprints?" The people under him were also wondering.

"Dingling." Just then, the phone rang.

"Hello, who is it?"

"I'll tell you a secret. In this competition, there is a dark side..."

The person holding the phone has bright eyes, what, is there something wrong?
He quickly picked up the pen and paper, and recorded while listening. When he put down the phone, he shouted to Alessandro: "We finally know, there is an inside story here! We must expose this inside story!"
