America’s Big Hero

Chapter 399 You call this a business negotiation?

To engage in consortia or something, that is a matter of the future.

The top priority now is to make money, and Sean is almost dying of poverty.

According to Shen Bi, his more than 400 million yuan was not enough at all, not even signing broadcast rights with the four major leagues.

What's more, Sean wants to do so many things.

Shen Bi thinks that Xiao En is a very amazing person, he can always try his best to bankrupt himself!

In a short period of time, Xiao En couldn't think of any idea to make a large sum of money quickly, and Ka Dazuo didn't have many such opportunities after all.

After thinking about it for a while, Sean put his idea on the super toucan.

The original Super Toucan was produced in Brazil, and it was put into the market after 2000. It is in service in Brazil, Colombia, Dominica, Chile, Ecuador, Burkina Faso, Angola, Mali, Mauritania, Senegal, Afghanistan and other countries.

In 2013, the United States also ordered 20 for use in the Afghan battlefield.

This is because the Brazilian government is not strong enough, which leads to poor sales of the aircraft. If it is replaced by Sean... no, replaced by the US government, the sales of the Super Tucano will be better and the price will be higher!

Sean: What the hell are you buying or buying or buying!

Buyer: buy buy buy...

This aircraft is an old-fashioned turboprop aircraft, so its takeoff and landing performance is very good. In addition to taking off and landing on standard cement runways, it can also take off and land on dirt runways, gravel runways, grass airports and snow-covered runways. Small countries with poor facilities are more friendly, easy to operate, and more secure and reliable.

Compared with jet aircraft, it has higher requirements on runways, infrastructure and pilots, which is too unfriendly to small countries.

In addition to the above advantages, the Super Tucano has many advantages. The flying cost of propeller aircraft is only about 400 US dollars per hour. Compared with jet aircraft, it is much lower than that of helicopters.

In addition, the stall speed of this propeller aircraft is only 148 km/h, which is convenient for low-speed reconnaissance and ground attack. 520 km/h, it can approach the battlefield faster, and it is more convenient to avoid individual air defense missiles.

Compared with armed helicopters, it has a longer combat radius, longer combat duration, faster speed, better battlefield survivability, lower fuel consumption, lower operational difficulty, lower maintenance difficulty and maintenance cost.

In addition, the larger body allows the toucan to mount more weapons, such as cannon pods, rocket pods, ordinary bombs, cluster bombs, laser-guided bombs, anti-tank missiles, and even infrared combat missiles.

These somewhat make the Super Tucano very suitable for maritime patrol, anti-submarine, anti-terrorism, and anti-guerrilla warfare.

Wu Dalang plays night owls, what kind of people play what kind of birds, those small countries are backward in all aspects, the frequency of battles is high, and the intensity of battles is low. Compared with advanced jet fighters, obviously backward propeller planes are more suitable.

In places like Africa, South America, Southeast Asia, and Syria, this plane will sell very well, and Sean is sure to make a fortune!

The most important thing is that this is a serious business with legitimate income.

The word legal is simply too important!

...

"Airplane?" David looked at Sean strangely, "What kind of airplane do you want? I think you're doing an airplane!"

"After staying in Africa for a while, did your IQ also get infected by those niggers!"

"This is really a pity!"

"Fighters!" Sean rolled his eyes, the old man's mouth was still so vicious, "I found a very serious problem in Libya, whether it's the Arabs or the black ghosts, the current jet planes and gunships are for them It's all too difficult."

"Can you imagine a nigga who eats watermelons, walks on cotton, and gets rich off of it learns to fly a 3rd generation jet fighter?"

David tilted his head and thought about it seriously, "I think agricultural aircraft are more suitable for them!"

"So!" Sean spread his hands, "Whether it is American, European or Soviet aircraft, they are just big toys to them. I just sold 200 armed helicopters that the Orientals have discontinued to Card Dazuo. , the only weapon is the 12.7mm machine gun, very popular!"

"Moreover, I helped them develop a new usage, hovering in the air, holding the bomb and throwing it through the warehouse door. This tactic has been unanimously praised!"

Pfft, the old man David burst out laughing, "Damn, are they all stupid, they would even approve of such a damn thing."

"Why not?" Sean took it for granted, "That's Africa. Although this tactic is shitty, their opponents are a group of niggers picking cotton in the cotton fields!"

"Both RPG and individual anti-aircraft missiles must have a launch angle. Before the aircraft hovering overhead are shot down, the tail flames sprayed on the ground will burn themselves to death!"

"Or do you think black African faith shooting can shoot down planes overhead?"

"Well, I really can't ask for so much!" Old man David laughed and slapped the table.

It’s not a joke, it’s just a joke, Sean finally revealed his plan, and talked about the Brazilian toucan that is still used as a trainer, but can mount modern weapons.

The Brazilian Air Force ordered 118 aircraft, Egypt ordered 120, 40 for its own use, and the remaining 80 for the Iraqi Air Force. The market prospect is broad.

This matter was first heard by Ka Dazuo when he was in Libya, and Sean remembered the toucan.

"It's not impossible, are you going to cooperate with the Brazilian?" David asked after thinking about it.

"No, I'm going to do it on my own. I don't want them to make money from cooperation with them. This thing has no technical content. I believe that the technical reserves of several American aircraft manufacturers are completely sufficient to manufacture the aircraft." Sean shrugged. "If I can make money by myself, what should I share with the Brazilians?"

David sneered at Xiao En's small-scale farmer's thinking that likes to do everything by himself and grasp everything in his hands.

But it doesn't matter, he doesn't mind giving Sean an idea.

"Do you know Grumman?"

Sean shook his head.

"They have produced F6F Hellcat fighters, F7F Tigercat fighters, and F8F Panda fighters. They have manufactured more than 20,000 propeller fighters of this type. Among them, F7F is still a ship-based type. They have the world's most abundant propeller fighter manufacturing capabilities and experience."

"Although their main research and development direction has now been changed to jet fighters, the accumulation of technology is still there. You can talk to them, cooperate in production, re-establish a joint venture company, or other methods. You can think about it yourself."

Xiao En's eyes brightened. There is an old man in the family, such as a treasure. The old man David not only knows a lot, but also has a wide network of contacts.

"It's Grumman!" Sean said, "Old man, call!"

Old man David's face darkened suddenly. He's ready to kill the donkey before the f*ck is used up!

After scolding Sean a few words, the old man David was very stubborn, but he picked up the phone honestly and dialed out.

As Shen Bi said, Rockefeller secretly held a small amount of shares in Grumman Corporation through other financial institutions. Although he usually did not participate in the management, it was still useful to say something.

Sean showed up at Grumman the next day.

Grumman was originally the factory director of Luoning Company. When the company moved from New York State to Pennsylvania in 2028, Grumman decided to go it alone. Lemming Aircraft Company, renamed: Grumman.

Grumman started out selling the Grumman FF fighter, a biplane with retractable landing gear, to the U.S. Navy.

The original company is in New York State, the new company is in Long Island, New York, and it can get orders from the US Navy. Isn't it natural that Rockefeller has a stake in it?

During World War II, Grumman's 'Cat' series fighters shined brilliantly, F4F Wildcat, F6F Hellcat, F7F Tigercat, F8F Panda, two-thirds of the planes lost in Japan were shot down by Grumman's products .

After World War II, there was a period of low tide, and the current most successful product is the F-14 Tomcat.

The person who received Sean was Bertie Bazel, the president of Grumman, a professional manager. Among the descendants of Grumman, there are not too outstanding talents who can control the development of the company.

Bertie Bazel seemed very enthusiastic. With Sean's current status, even a company with little relationship would not neglect him.

He welcomed Sean into the company with a few entourages, and after a while of pleasantries, he heard that Sean was very interested in the cat series propeller fighters they produced in the early years, so he took Sean to visit the company's museum.

The old plane 40 years ago, no matter how brilliant it was back then, the complete plane can only be found in museums...

In the aircraft museum, Sean recognized the legendary aircraft F6F at a glance.

F6F created an unparalleled record, in less than 2 years, a total of 5155 aircraft were shot down.

Then there was the F7F Tigercat, which Sean knew from Bertie Bazel's introduction, this plane participated in the Battle of Changjin Lake.

When the U.S. Army fell into a tight siege in the Changjin Lake area, the "Tiger Cats" of the 542 Squadron helped the main force of the 1st Marine Division withdraw from the hellish Changjin Lake area.

The last is the F8F Panda, the last propeller fighter.

After the visit, Sean explained his purpose of coming. He wanted to purchase the design materials and technology of the "Cat" series of fighter jets.

It is information and technology rather than patents. 40 years ago, patents have expired long ago. In fact, in the United States, this technology has expired long ago. As long as there are detailed design drawings and detailed information on various technologies, even if it is Companies that produce agricultural aircraft can complete production.

In the office, Bertie Bazel was deep in thought, raised his head for a while and said: "These are all outdated technologies, it's not that they cannot be sold, and Mr. Sean also knows that they are not worth much."

"So, I really want to know why Mr. Sean bought these things?"

Xiao En thought for a while and said with a smile: "Of course it is going to be produced to make money, otherwise, it would not be to make a big toy."

Bertie Bazel looked confused, "This kind of old plane? Make money? I'm sorry, sir, I'm not questioning you, I'm just, it's just hard to imagine what it would be like for such an old grandpa plane to join the battle look."

"I really can't imagine where they will be used."

"Let's talk about whether it can be sold first." Sean raised his eyebrows.

Bertie Bazel tilted his head and thought for a while. He couldn't find a reason to refuse. Although the technology belonged to Grumman, this kind of old-fashioned thing is really not cherished so much. It can't offend Rockefeller and Sean, "Of course no problem."

"It's actually very simple, it's just..." Sean looked up into Bertie Bazel's eyes and said sincerely, "Mr. Bazel will definitely not steal business from me, will he?"

"No, no, Mr. Xiao En is joking, how could I do this!" Bertie Bazel hurriedly waved his hands, "I am an upright businessman, and I will never do such despicable things as plagiarism."

If an ordinary person came up with a good idea, Bertie Bazel might still think about doing something, but the best result would be to share a negligible profit with the creator.

Of course, this insignificance is enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime.

Whether it is hypocrisy, promoting products, buying people's hearts, or buying horse bones with thousands of dollars, after all, it is to make more. Anyway, in this regard, capitalism is indeed doing well.

But if the man turns out to be Sean Rockefeller...

Not to mention who in the United States dares to plagiarize American shareholder Rockefeller, even Sean himself, that is not a good talker!

Rockefeller might be scruples about his identity, and would only use business methods and contacts to attack his opponent mentally. In exchange for this... who in the upper class doesn't know Sean, the biggest possibility is to solve the problem physically!

"Hahaha, I knew that Mr. Bazel was an upright person." Sean laughed and gave a thumbs up, and then said with a smile: "The United States is not the only one in this world. I have always lived in the United States, living in New York. Those of you who live in the most prosperous and top-notch cities in the world can’t even imagine what backward areas look like.”

"You have lived in the center of the world for too long, and you don't even know that even the technology of World War II is still advanced and unsurpassed in nearly half of the world."

"Even if it is this kind of propeller fighter, there are only 10 countries in the world that can produce it."

"And then?" Bertie Bazel spread out his hands, not knowing what it mattered.

"Okay..." Sean repeated what he said to old David.

Bertie Bazel suddenly realized!

Yes, there is no world war now!

In the area where the war occurred, the warring parties were lower than those of World War II in terms of the number of troops, the quality of the soldiers, the scope of operations, the intensity of the war, and the technological content.

The "Cat" series fighters were the most outstanding fighters in World War II, and they are fully capable of meeting the current combat needs. What's more, Grumman has more advanced technology, which can completely replace the old F6F with engines.

They have stayed in the United States for too long, and they only have the US military in their eyes. They have forgotten that there are still many backward countries in the world. Their inertial thinking prevents them from seeing the huge market of the third world at all.

And Sean, who has personally walked on the battlefield, is keenly aware of business opportunities!

There are no shoes in the very classic Africa. If there are many ways to sell, you will have feet!

Now in the late period of the Cold War, orders from the U.S. military are getting fewer and fewer, and Grumman is in trouble, and it is worrying that it cannot find a way out.

Bertie Bazel's heart beat faster, a vast market appeared in front of him, and the company was about to be reborn in his hands, but... when he looked up, he saw Sean's smiling face.

Immediately, it was as if ice water had been poured on the head in the coldest winter, and at the same time when he woke up instantly, his whole body was half cold.

Cut Hu Xiaoen, difficult, difficult, difficult!

It's true that Grumman has technology, but this thing has passed the protection period long ago!

There are too many companies that can manufacture such low-end products, even after modernization.

Bertie Bazel put his hands on his chest and looked at Sean with a sad face, "I really regret it, I shouldn't ask this question, if I don't ask, I won't feel regretful, feel heartache, and my heart will be broken !"

Although these small countries are poor, they can't stand much.

He is not old David. He is a real industry insider. He knows all kinds of data of fighter jets, suitable combat environments, and the difference in combat effectiveness that can be displayed on different battlefields.

Jet fighters are indeed powerful and advanced, but their advantages are speed, combat radius, and stealth capabilities. The combat objectives are air combat and survivability in response to surface-to-air missile attacks.

However, these capabilities are not needed at all in the area where the current war is taking place!

What they need is ground attack capability, ground-to-air reconnaissance, easy operation, low consumption, super long cruising time, and defense against individual air defense missiles and anti-aircraft guns...

What kind of jet fighter do you want!

"Would you like to help me!" Sean smiled and looked at Bertie Bazel, "Establish an aircraft manufacturing company specifically targeting the third world."

Bertie Bazel laughed dryly. Although Grumman has been in trouble recently, he is also one of the most famous fighter jet manufacturers in the United States and even in the world. He is crazy to go to the third world with Sean. Isn't that just selling junk!

"Mr. Sean, I admit that this is a piece of virgin land that has yet to be developed. Theoretically speaking, it will have a better market prospect. However, aircraft manufacturing is not that simple. This is not a tractor, nor is it an agricultural aircraft. It can be used as a fighter jet just by welding, as Mr. Xiao En said, there are not 10 countries in the world that have the ability to manufacture fighter jets.”

"That's why I'm telling you this." Sean shrugged with a smile, "What does Grumman think?"

"We at Grumman are responsible for redesigning, manufacturing, and selling this new type of propeller fighter. Mr. Xiao En doesn't need to worry about anything, and will get 15% of the net profit. I think this is a reasonable cooperation plan."

"Ha, let's talk about the full set of design drawings and technologies of the cat series." Sean said with a sneer.

"This..." Bertie Bazel frowned, already knowing such a big market, how could he be willing to sell the design drawings and technology now!

"Huh?" Sean's face dropped instantly, "What, Bertie Bazel, you're kidding me!"

"There are scrapped aircraft of the 'Cat' series in the abandoned airports of the military. Even if they are disassembled, they can be assembled into a complete aircraft. There is no difficulty in restoring the technology." Sean stood up and looked down at Bo. Dee Bazel, "You have to understand that I, Sean, are kind-hearted, because Rockefeller is a shareholder of Grumman, and because I respect the original factory and the Grumman family, I found you Grumman's face, and No hiding!"

"If someone chooses to be greedy because of my kindness, believe me, God will punish those who have no integrity, including his whole family, and they will not end well, they will go to hell!"

Bertie Bazel's complexion turned ugly instantly. After all, he is also the helm of a world-renowned military company, and it was the first time he was threatened in person like this.

"Be careful, watch out for any robbery going on around here, there's going to be stray bullets flying, be careful of people who break down and get revenge on society, be careful of big trucks that get tired and drive out of control, be careful of drivers who drink or smoke high and drive fast, be careful Parabolic objects at high altitudes, be careful of fires caused by electric leakage, even when you go to the hospital for a physical examination, you must be careful to get infected with AIDS when encountering repeatedly used needles when drawing blood!"

Every time Sean said the same thing, Bertie Bazel's face turned pale, how careful these things are! !

What Xiao En said was punishment from God, which is very in line with the doctrine, and no one can find fault with it, but as long as you are not stupid, you will know what it means!

"I don't, I'm not, don't talk nonsense!" Bertie Bazel quickly waved his hands, "I'm a very honest person, but, just... I don't know how to cooperate."

It was just a threat, and Bertie Bazel couldn't do anything to Sean, but he obviously didn't dare to let him ignore this threat.

There are many people in the United States who can get rid of Sean and go it alone without fear of Xiong En's revenge, such as a few big families and a few big consortia, but this definitely does not include Grumman, let alone Bertie Bazel.

Sean laughed, sat down again and said kindly: "I was just joking, business negotiation."

The corner of Bertie Bazel's mouth twitched: You call threatening to kill the whole family a business negotiation?

Alright, count yourself as ruthless!

"Mr. Sean thinks it's better to cooperate." Bertie Bazel calmed down and asked solemnly. He knew that he had fallen into a complete passive situation in this negotiation.

"As I said, there are other ways for me to obtain the production technology of the cat series without paying Grumman a penny, do you admit it?" Sean tilted his head and asked.

Bertie Bazel nodded.

"Very good. On the basis of this consensus, I want to say that I respect intellectual property rights, and I also care about my own reputation, so I will not do such a damn thing." Sean said with a serious face said.

It's not because the mother is dead, absolutely not!

Sean really hates those behaviors that don't respect intellectual property rights, never do research, and can take away other people's achievements at will if they just open their mouths.

In the end, there is no innovation, and whoever invests in research is a big fool.

Forget it externally, the key is to do the same internally. This is no longer short-sighted. To put it bluntly, it’s still the same sentence. In the official position, this is not considered reading, it’s nothing more than extraordinary skills. Taking your achievements is giving you face!

Cough cough, yes, we are talking about pirated novels!

Absolutely nothing else, trust me!
