Great warships

Chapter 349 Design Drawing of 8000

These things have nothing to do with Qin Tao, but since this project was mentioned, Qin Tao stepped in.

For the motherland, energy security is too important. A few years ago, the motherland was an oil exporting country. With the continuous development of the national economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for oil is increasing. The motherland has also started to , officially became an oil importing country, and, as time goes by, the amount of imports is still increasing.

The issue of energy security will become more and more important. Although in peacetime, you can safely and boldly transport by sea, but once you encounter any problems, the fragile Malacca route can easily be choked by the throat.

Therefore, the country must find a way to solve the problem of energy security.

There are two ways.

One is to go south and build the oil and natural gas pipeline directly through the old bus to the sea. The Anxi Bay is nearby, and the oil and natural gas can be easily transported to the country through pipelines.

The other is to go north and export Lao Maozi's oil directly through the pipeline.

The oil pipeline has been negotiated since 94, but it was not officially signed until 09. It has experienced too many ups and downs. As for the natural gas pipeline, it is even more complicated. Before Qin Tao crossed, construction did not start.

These are all national-level projects, so the repetition and delay can be imagined.

If you want to do it, you have to build it as soon as possible within a few years, or you have to wait.

In fact, this oil pipeline is easier, because Lao Maozi has already repaired the oil pipeline to the Far East. It only needs to connect the end of Lao Maozi's pipeline with the Daqing pipeline.

Therefore, according to the pipeline route of later generations, the total length is more than 1000 kilometers, and Lao Maozi only needs to repair more than 60 kilometers. In China, the length of the pipeline from Mohe to Daqing is more than 900 kilometers. In particular, There is still a length of 1.5 kilometers to cross the HLJ.

Therefore, as long as the old man nods, a little repair is enough. Most of the pipelines are repaired in China.

Qin Tao didn't have much interest in getting involved in the oil project. He was only responsible for matchmaking. After all, there was a demand for this in China, but they chose the wrong partner.

The three of them walked and chatted like this, so they didn't have to worry about being overheard. However, just after walking for a while, a person walked up to them.

"Qin, you are so elegant."

"Yeah, I'm too full to eat." Qin Tao said with a smile.

In fact, it is still relatively cold in Moscow now, and it is not a good enjoyment to take a stroll at this time.

"Really? Do you want to go out to play? The night view of Moscow is still good, and you can enjoy the wonderful nightlife." Vitalia sent an invitation.

"Let's forget it, we have experienced too many things during the day today, and we want to take a good rest at night."

Qin Tao cleverly refused Vitalia's invitation. The other party was a little disappointed, but he still showed a smile: "Qin, I really envy Zhao, who has such a dedicated man like you."

"Yeah, I envy her too, having a husband like me."

Vitalia's smile became brighter: "Qin, haven't you Easterners always been humble?"

"Yeah, I feel very humble."

"Then let's go for a walk together, shall we?"

"of course."

Yang Dawei and Xu Zhengyang went back to the room, and Qin Tao and Vitalia continued to walk around the yard.

"My father said that I should do something." Vitalia said: "He is very interested in the project you proposed. If my father's consortium acquires a certain oil company, I may I will become the head of this oil company, and then negotiate with you to export oil and build oil pipelines."

what?
Qin Tao looked at Vitalia in surprise. She is in her 20s, about the same age as herself. Although she has had some men, she is still unmarried. Now, is she going to be on this stage of history?

"Qin, why do you look at me like that? Do you doubt my ability?"

"Of course not, Vitalia, you are very capable. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"In our east, there is an idiom called the three caves of the cunning rabbit. A cunning rabbit will build three exits in his home. The situation in your country may change at any time. You and your father must leave a way out for yourself! "

Hearing Qin Tao's words, Vitalia was silent for a while, and then said: "Qin, if that day comes, will you take me in?"

"Well, of course you can, but you have to come up with a new name, say goodbye to the past, and start a new life."

"Okay, then we're done."

A smile bloomed on Vitalia's face. For some reason, she felt very relaxed when she was with Qin Tao, but she also knew that she couldn't do anything to offend Zhao, so getting along like this now has already Very good.

the next day.

"The matter has been clarified." Litvinenko came to Berezovsky's home, and in front of Berezovsky and Qin Tao, told the results of the investigation.

"Ah San was behind everything. They knew about Dongfang's 054 frigate and were very interested in this frigate, so they wanted to use various methods to obtain the design of this frigate. They bought our bureau People who want to find a reason to get rid of all the data in your computer."

These are similar to what Qin Tao guessed.

At first, Qin Tao suspected that the people from the Neva Design Bureau did it, but he quickly gave up this idea. After all, although the old man was down and out, he was still arrogant in his bones. Let them use this method to obtain the design of the Eastern warship Drawings, that's impossible.

There was only Ah San, and they didn't have any psychological burden to act like thieves.

On the one hand, they definitely want to steal this design and then build warships themselves. On the other hand, they also want to use these materials to study the characteristics of the latest 054 frigate built by the East.

"So, what are you going to do about it?"

"These people dare to use this method to tarnish the reputation of our bureau. We must not tolerate it." Litvinenko said: "We have sent people to monitor the location of these people, arrest them at any time, and then deal with them as espionage them!"

Qin Tao shook his head: "Mr. Litvinenko, this is just a trivial matter. Why should it cause a diplomatic disturbance? I have a solution to the problem."

"any solution?"

"Open the skylight and tell the truth, don't they want the design drawings? Let them spend money to buy them. I think the design drawings are worth at least 6000 to [-] million US dollars. When the other party buys our drawings, we will share them equally. How about ?”

Litvinenko's eyes lit up: "Okay!"

He has already checked the bank card yesterday, and the balance of 100 million US dollars is quite a lot.Moreover, this is just a meeting ceremony for Qin Tao, and today he is going to blackmail Asan, and after blackmailing, he can get 3000 to [-] million US dollars!
Hotel Peter 1.

This can be regarded as the center of Moscow, less than one kilometer away from the Red Square, and the streets outside are full of traffic.

In a suite on the third floor of the hotel, several people stood in front of the window, but didn't care to appreciate the scenery outside.

In their hearts, there is only worry.

"Did Victor and the others succeed? Why haven't they contacted us yet?" Chetri, the leader of the whole incident, asked Kidambi who was in charge of the actual operation.

"I don't know. I've already called more than a dozen times, but no one answered. Maybe they were afraid of being monitored."

"They are supposed to monitor others, so how could they be afraid of being monitored?" Chetri said angrily, "Did something happen?"

Accident?Can there be any surprises?
The people from the Counterintelligence Bureau are dispatched, can there be any accidents?That person took them a million dollars in favors, and he was the head of the Counterintelligence Bureau, how could there be any accidents?

Moreover, if there were any accidents, Moscow would have already started shaking, but now everything is calm and there is nothing.

At this moment, a car stopped below, and through the window glass, they could see the people getting on and off from that car.

"Here they come!" Kidambi was the first to recognize it: "Did you see it? That person is Victor!"

Kidambi will not admit his mistake. He has met with the other party several times to make sure that everything is suitable and there will be no mistakes.

Victor came and came to deal with them.

"Everyone get ready, these damned old men may ask us to increase the price." Chetri said: "If it's not too much, I will agree to their request, but we must ensure that the drawings are true .”

Soon, there was a knock on the door outside.

Kidambi went to open the door first, and Victor was standing at the door, but Victor's face turned pale and he seemed to be still shaking.

"Mr. Victor, are you here? Come in with your men." Kidambi said.

Several people walked in.

"Mr. Victor, please sit down." Chetri was also very enthusiastic.

"I won't sit down anymore, let me introduce the people around me to you."

"Mr. Victor, your subordinates need no introduction."

"Not my subordinates, but my leader, Mr. Litvinenko."

lead?

"Welcome, welcome Mr. Litvinenko." Chetri quickly stretched out his hand, and at the same time, he was secretly annoyed. The old man was playing this game, obviously wanting to ask them for more money, but as long as he got it Design drawings, give the other party more, and you will recognize it. This is a great credit!

"And this one, Qin, the boss of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group."

When the face of another person appeared in front of their eyes, everyone was in a mess in an instant.

what happened?

Didn't I ask you to get their blueprints?Why did you bring people here directly? What’s going on here?

betrayed!

When thinking of this, Chetri only felt his brain explode.

"Victor, you charged us $100 million, you can't do that!" Kidambi was the first to lose his composure and roared.

Chetri still wanted to work hard to control the situation, but a word from this subordinate made him lose the rhythm, and he could no longer find a trace of friendly atmosphere.

"Mr. Victor, this is unfair to us." Chetri tried to calm himself down.

"Fair? Is it fair to us if you do this?" Qin Tao looked at Chetri: "He covets the technology of our Mingzhou Group. Instead of buying it openly, he wants to secretly order people to plunder it! Now, you can Taste the same, and you'll all be thrown in jail for espionage."

"No, no, we didn't do anything!" Chetri said, "It's just that Mr. Victor blackmailed us. He extorted 100 million from us, and then gave us some worthless drawings, that's all."

Qin Tao glanced at Victor: "Did you see it? You are trading with this kind of people. Once there is any danger, they will take all responsibility."

Victor also had some anger on his face: "Mr. Chetri, by now, everything about us has been exposed, and the recordings of our transactions have been mastered by my superiors. There is no reason for you to shift the responsibility to me like this." significance."

"Okay, don't talk about those useless things, you clowns from the south, what are you going to end up with?" Litvinenko sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, lit a cigar, and said in a cold tone.

"Mr. Litvinenko, we have nothing to do with this. Behind us..."

"The people behind you can't protect you, they will take all responsibility!" Litvinenko glanced at these people: "You will spend the rest of your life in a prison in Siberia!"

"Mr. Litvinenko, I feel sorry for these poor people. I have a suggestion, but I don't know what these people will think." Qin Tao said.

"President Qin, please tell me." Chettery looked at Qin Tao eagerly, hoping for a glimmer of life.

"The various espionage activities you have done here are all for our warship design blueprints. In this case, why don't you just buy them from us? It's fair and square!"

Qin Tao had a smile on his face: "I have to criticize you. If you want it, just make it clear. If you want it, pay for it and I will give it to you. Of course, if you want it, I won't give it to you." Yours, it’s impossible for me not to give it to you if you say you want it, but I want to give it to you when you say you don’t want it, everyone is reasonable.”

After these words, Chetri's mind was stunned. What did this guy mean?I didn't understand it at all, and I was completely trapped in it.

After finishing the tongue twister, Qin Tao looked at Litvinenko again: "Mr. Litvinenko, if they are willing to spend money to buy from us, then an agreement has been reached, and the previous means can be counted. In this purchase process, it is not considered as espionage, and you don’t need to seize them, what do you think?”

Litvinenko nodded: "I think it's okay. Now, Chetri, Kidambi, and others, think about it, are you willing to buy? If you buy, then complete the transaction under my witness. If If you don't buy it, I will take you away and send it to Siberia."

"Yes, we are willing." Chetri nodded. Does this still need to be considered?
Either spend money to buy it, or go to Siberia to mine, definitely choose the former.

"Okay, since you have decided to buy, then, Mr. Qin, you can make an offer."

"We don't want much, just [-] million U.S. dollars." Qin Tao said: "Mr. Chetley, as a member of the Asan Naval Design Bureau, has handled hundreds of millions of projects, and this mere [-] million U.S. dollars must be a drizzle. "

[-] million!
Chetri finally understood that the front is all foreshadowing, and the back is the real issue. These people are a partnership to blackmail them!

But, even if he knew, so what?He doesn't want to go mining in Siberia!

"Boss Qin, isn't the price a bit high?" Chetri boldly said, "We asked the Northern Design Bureau to design the Derry-class destroyer, and the design fee was only 2000 million U.S. dollars."

(It is also said that it is Severnoye Design Firm. I don’t know if it changed its name after the collapse of the Red Empire.)
"That's right, it cost 80 million in the 2000s. Now, isn't it normal to spend [-] million?" Qin Tao said, "Our price, that's no lie. Do the math, what's the inflation over the years? "

Ah San has always used Wanguo brand equipment, so although Ah San has a lot of jokes, Ah San's logistics department is definitely thumbs up. They can still buy shells when they don't have enough ammunition, which is enough to show that they are serious and responsible in their work.

Ah San also has a sense of honor, so they also want to make their own weapons. In the 70s, they planned to build domestic destroyers. Although in name, they were designed by their Naval Design Bureau, but they They also knew how much they had, so they entrusted the design task to the Northern Design Bureau, and made changes based on the Kassin-class destroyer of the Red Empire, adding western equipment, expanding the hangar, etc. .

In 87, construction of this destroyer had already started. However, Ah San had high hopes for this destroyer and kept putting forward various requirements, so the design plan was constantly changing, coupled with the problems caused by the collapse of the Red Empire, so, This destroyer was not launched until 95, and it entered service in 97. Asan spent 20 years building a ship, and her skills are not low.

Design was a thing in the 80s, and now it has entered the 90s, so the increase in design costs is justified.

"However, that is a destroyer with a full load displacement of nearly [-] tons. You are just a frigate!"

"That's right, in terms of displacement, our frigate is not big, it belongs to the [-]-ton class, but this is a stealth frigate! We use a lot of advanced designs, which are products ahead of the times." Qin Tao Said: "We use a vertical launch system, does the Delhi class have it? We use all-diesel power, does the Delhi class have it? We have been rated as the best ship type in the world, what about the Delhi class? Are you planning to buy it if you push three blocks and four?" Well, if you don't buy, then our deal is terminated, Mr. Litvinenko, you continue."

As Qin Tao said, he planned to stand up and walk.

Chetri suddenly became anxious.

This is forced buying and selling, do they have the right to bargain?
"Mr. Qin, please stop. Please believe in our sincerity. We are willing to buy, but we really can't afford your price." Chetri said.

"Can't afford it? Well, let's shrink it a bit." Qin Tao said: "Release the vertical launch system to a single-arm launcher. In this way, the design cost can be reduced by 1000 million US dollars, 9000 million, which is the lowest price already."

Hanging hair becomes a single-arm launcher?
Chetri's face was full of pain. What they were looking at was the 054's vertical launch system. They wanted to study how this system was arranged. Now, what did the other party say to get rid of the vertical launch system?Then what's the use for them to buy it back?

"Mr. Chetri, should you be satisfied now?" Litvinenko said, "I have never seen such a kind person as Mr. Qin."

kind?Honest ass!Chetri didn't know how many times he scolded the other party in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

People have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves.

"Boss Qin, can you lower the price a bit?"

"Should it be lowered?" Qin Tao thought for a while, and then said: "Well, in this case, the power system must also be modified. Our all-diesel drive is fuel-efficient and durable. Let's change it to diesel-fuel alternation. However, we I don’t know what gas turbines you can purchase, so we have left the power system part free, but please rest assured, you can go to us when you have selected the power system, and we will definitely complete the design for you, and I won’t charge more money. How about 1000 million, 8000 million less?”

"This is already the lowest price." Litvinenko said: "It can't be lowered!"

Although it was discussed in the morning that it was 6000 to 2000 million, but now Litvinenko heard [-] million at this time, and his heart was already moved, and he shrank another [-] million, which is already interesting enough and cannot be less.

8000 million, get a set of design drawings of a frigate without a power system and a single-arm launcher, how do you think about it?There was a hundred reluctances in Chetri's heart, but at the same time, he also knew that they had no room for maneuver.

"Can we have a look at the blueprint first?" Chetri asked.

"Of course no problem." Qin Tao said: "Mr. Yang, turn on the computer, modify the design on the spot, and then hand it over to them."

On-the-spot modification!Nima, can I still ask for this?Doesn't the design drawing of a warship need hundreds of people to modify it?

Chetri felt a chill in his heart.

Yang Dawei also appeared as an entourage. At this time, he put the computer on the table beside him, and began to modify it on the spot. The speed was very fast. After ten minutes, the design drawing was ready.

"There is no printer here. Please read it on your computer. If you decide to trade, we will hand over this computer to you." Qin Tao said, "This is what you once wanted to do."

Anyway, the original hard drive on this computer has been removed, and what is installed in it now is a product tailor-made for Ah San.

Yes, I used to want it very much, but now, I absolutely don't want it anymore!
