Chapter 3985 domineering agreement
After Thomas Enders received the authorization from the board of directors, he began to prepare the arms order ordered by Lin Feng. In fact, he did not completely tell the truth to the board of directors. After Lin Feng's transaction, I am afraid that one batch will be resold to Libya, and
Given the relationship between Libya and the United States, this batch of arms may be used to deal with the US government in the future. This may eventually be blamed on the EU.
However, Thomas Enders only values profits. Businessmen pursue profits, and now the company needs to develop. This order can allow the company to develop even more. As for what will happen next, who can say? Besides, Thomas-
Enders has always believed that Lin Feng is a magical person. By taking this opportunity to cooperate with Lin Feng, maybe Lin Feng can take action if the company encounters difficulties in the future. Even if the company does not encounter difficulties, he encounters personal difficulties and asks Lin Feng for help.
, with this kind of relationship, there is no need to worry about Lin Feng not helping. What’s more, he also gets amazing dividends from these orders.
So, the last thing is, people’s surnames are private!
"Li Rui, ask Brother Meng to arrange for someone to take over. We are going to Detroit." Lin Feng ordered.
The matter here has been negotiated, and the only thing left is to hand over the goods. Lin Feng does not need to worry about this. Just ask Wang Meng to send professionals to inspect the goods and receive them.
"Boss, Brother Meng has sent someone here, and they will arrive in Paris tonight at the latest." Li Rui replied with excitement. As a soldier, there is nothing more exciting than seeing well-equipped weapons. Thinking of '
Li Rui was excited from the bottom of his heart to have this batch of fine weapons from Langya. He followed Lin Feng. He usually didn't need to fight. At most, he only needed to prevent terrorist attacks. He was not too interested in this batch of weapons.
Strong. But those elite soldiers of the "Langya" are fighting on the front line. Having these weapons is enough to greatly reduce the casualty rate of the "Langya".
"Well, then you send someone here to prepare for the handover, and we will go to Detroit first." Lin Feng nodded and said, "Also, leave two of these eight satellites for me. My company will use them. If the number of satellites is not enough,
Buy again! As for the money, don’t worry, I will provide the capital, and there is no need to use the working capital of ‘Langya’.”
The welfare package of 'Langya' has always been excellent, and it is also the best among mercenary organizations in the world. Especially the compensation for disabled soldiers has always been the first in the industry. Therefore, the commission of 'Langya'
Although it is high, in fact, not much is left to the company in the end. Up to now, the liquidity in the accounts of 'Langya' is only more than 100 million US dollars. It is undoubtedly necessary to use the financial resources of 'Langya' to purchase this batch of arms.
It's just a dream. Therefore, Lin Feng can only provide the capital. Fortunately, Lin Feng has a sum of funds. The money he got from 30 countries for the sale of 'Nuwa', after paying the final balance of 'Wind City', is just right.
It was used to pay for this arms order. After paying this amount of money, Lin Feng was clean again. The funds in the account did not exceed 100 million US dollars. But it was coming soon. This summer, it was time for Lin Feng to make a fortune.
Food crisis!
Li Rui nodded, and after giving some instructions, leaving one person to wait for the handover, everyone went directly to Paris International Airport and flew directly to Detroit.
When Lin Feng reached a secret arms supply agreement, Boeing Company had already arrived in the United Arab Emirates and mainland China in two batches and started their public relations policy, preparing to lobby the two countries to purchase their Boeing series aircraft instead of purchasing the technology they had just acquired.
The A380 is taking shape but has not yet been tested in practice.
In this regard, Airbus A380, whose order growth has been very slow, has its chief operating officer John Leahy very worried. He is afraid that Boeing will steal these two big markets again. The Emirates airline is reportedly going to impose a threat to the entire company.
Old aircraft are being completely phased out and upgraded, and its market transaction value is conservatively estimated to exceed US$90 billion. If this order is obtained, it will be enough for Airbus to get rid of its financial crisis in a short time. After all, in the past few years, the Airbus A380 has been developed.
Airbus has consumed too much liquidity, and the sales of the remaining aircraft have been poor. If it cannot get this order, it may really fall into a financial crisis. Even if the parent company, ESA, comes to the rescue,
That doesn't help either.
After all, the most important thing for a company's survival is its own profitability. If you are always unable to make profits and rely on the rescue of the parent company, then sooner or later you will go bankrupt.
As for the Chinese market, the current orders are not that big. But as China's economy continues to improve and the income of the Chinese people increases, air travel will become the preferred means of transportation for more and more Chinese people. Therefore, the Chinese market is potentially huge.
Market. If it is conquered by Boeing, the market will be doomed in the future.
The market is over now, and it will be over in the future. Can Airbus still survive? Can the A380 still survive? So immediately, John Leahy reported this matter to Lin Feng. After all, Lin Feng was the one in charge.
With the title of CEO of Asia, he is also the company's second largest shareholder, so he has reason to be responsible for the company's interests.
Lin Feng curled his lips after answering the phone. His 20 shares had not brought him any benefits yet, but he had caused some trouble first. He actually had to deal with this matter by himself. Of course, Lin Feng could also understand that John-
Leahy's embarrassment. In the past, Airbus has not paid much attention to the Asian market. They have always paid attention to the European and American markets. As a result, the European and American markets were completely defeated by Boeing with its superior performance and technology. When they finally developed a
Although it is comparable to Boeing's large passenger aircraft, it may be completely defeated by the other party due to market share issues. It is normal for John Leahy to be worried.
"Boss, what should I do now?" Lin Chiling asked worriedly. After all, Lin Feng has invested in Airbus. If Airbus is really finished, it will naturally not be good for Lin Feng. What's more, in Lin Feng's industrial chain
In the layout, an aircraft research and development company is also needed to provide aircraft support for airlines and tourism companies and protect their industrial chains.
"Don't worry, such a large order cannot be negotiated. Especially the domestic officials, don't you know? If they don't get enough benefits, they will easily let go! Especially, Boeing is so urgent this time
, passed by in such a hurry, this year has just ended, if you don't eat such fat meat, are those officials still officials?" Lin Feng laughed.
"What about the United Arab Emirates? These West Asians are always very happy to do things." Lin Chiling said worriedly. It is rumored that the orders of Emirates Airlines are as high as 90 billion US dollars. And the West Asians have never been short of money. Once this is recognized, it will
It will pay the bills. A business worth US$90 billion, even if it is a huge industry like Lam Feng, it cannot be given up easily.
"Emirates Airlines, these West Asians are indeed prone to impulsive spending!" Lin Feng nodded and said.
How to comment on West Asians, to use a popular Internet phrase is - people are stupid and have too much money. Compared with the consumption level of domestic tycoons, West Asians are definitely better. Super sports cars and luxury yachts made of pure gold,
Private jets, seven-star hotels, etc. are all synonymous with West Asians. But in this oil country, ordinary people buy gold in kilograms. It is conceivable that West Asians are rich and extravagant. Really?
If people in West Asia are persuaded by Boeing, this 90 billion order might just fly.
But it’s not cost-effective to let yourself be a lobbyist with only 20 shares. Lin Feng thought for a moment and hung up the phone directly with Fabrice Brégier, the president of Airbus.
"Mr. Blier, I just invested in the shares and held the title of honorary chairman and the so-called CEO of Asia. But in fact, Airbus is just a marketing branch in Asia, without factories or any parts.
Don’t you think it’s too unfair to ask me to be a lobbyist for this transaction?” Lin Feng said loudly.
This negotiation requires skills, but when faced with the absolute strength of one party, skills and the like do not exist. For example, during the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei and Sun Quan fought against Cao Cao together. They needed skills to convince Sun Quan, so they sent
Zhuge Liang went to lobby Sun Quan with his eloquent words. But after Liu Bei occupied Jingzhou, when Lu Su came to ask for Jingzhou, Liu Bei was unreasonable and used no skills. In short,
I just said I won’t pay it back, what can you do to me?
Therefore, now Lin Feng does not need to be too particular about skills, he can just show his dissatisfaction and conditions.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, what are your conditions?" Fabrice-Brélier naturally understood what Lin Feng meant, so he didn't bargain, just make your price.
"It's very simple. I want to share half of Airbus' profits in Asia." Lin Fengxiao said, "Otherwise, I would not come forward as this lobbyist!"
I am the richest man in the world, and I work as a lobbyist and only get 20% of the profit dividend. This is too low. So, at least 50%.
Fabrice-Brélier had no choice but to agree. Airbus's influence in Asia is far less than that of Boeing, and its technology is not as good as others. And Boeing acted first. If they want to regain the disadvantage, they can only rely on Lin Feng
.So, Lin Feng has to agree to whatever conditions he proposes. Besides, Lin Feng's conditions are quite fair. After all, Asia is an emerging market, a market that Airbus did not pay attention to in the past.
After getting the promise, Lin Feng made a call to Emirates Airlines.
"President Tim Clark, hello, I am Lin Feng. I know that your company is negotiating an aircraft order contract with Boeing. I am now negotiating the same contract with you on behalf of Airbus. But I can't come back for the time being.
Chapter completed!
