Ah San's glorious tradition has spread all over the world. Almost everyone knows that Ah San never pays the balance when buying things. Therefore, the solution is very simple, just let Ah San pay the full price.
If Ah San doesn’t pay the full price, then whatever percentage Ah San gives of the money will be given to Ah San’s technology, and that’s it.
Alex knew that this should be a solution acceptable to both parties. He had no choice but to buy part of the technology first. What should he buy?
"Let's buy back the linear motor technology first. After we go back, we can make a few modules ourselves and see how they work." Raja said. He is engaged in motors. In his eyes, the motor technology
is the most important, and the motor is directly responsible for ejection, and other systems are responsible for serving the motor. The linear motor must be the first one.
"Okay, let's buy a linear motor first!"
Ah San once again generously spent 250 million US dollars in exchange for information on linear motors, and then went back with this part of the information happily. When they left, Volkov also ran to find Nikolai.
Reported.
"Your Excellency Nicholas, we got 250 million U.S. dollars, a total of 250 million U.S. dollars!"
"Well, I'll leave you 10 million US dollars as funding, and leave the rest to me."
"yes."
They are not too few. After all, they are just errands. Moreover, they have also obtained the technology at the same time and can start research!
Nikola took US$240 million and embarked on the road to Mingzhou Group.
"Qin, I really don't know how to thank you. You not only gave us technology, but also brought us a lot of profits!" Nicholas was very excited after seeing Qin Tao: "This
We can just keep 40 million of the money, and the rest is yours."
"No, according to the agreement we agreed on, we will split it half and half."
"How can it be done? We haven't contributed much. If we can get this kind of technology, it's already very good."
"We've always done business on a 50-50 basis." Qin Tao said, "It's the same now, just give me half."
Nicholas thought for a moment: "In that case, let's use our half to order warships from your Mingzhou Group! With 120 million, we should be able to order a destroyer, right?"
"No, this is just the beginning. You can get about 500 million."
After Asan brought the technology back, he found that it could be built according to the data and it seemed to be usable. He would definitely be excited, and then he would come back and continue to buy the remaining technology. In this way, the entire contract of one billion dollars would go into Nikola's possession.
Belt bag.
"Yes, 500 million. With this money, we can build another aircraft carrier!"
"Nicholas, you don't have the right to control this money yourself. I suggest you hand it over."
Nicholas suddenly realized that he knew how timely Qin Tao reminded him. Although he earned the money, he must not control it by himself, otherwise he would not end well.
Nicholas nodded: "Okay, Qin, I understand. I don't know how much the boss will leave for our navy."
"It shouldn't be too much, but half is still enough. After so many incidents, your domestic shipbuilding industry should give up coveting the construction of warships. You can use this money to order advanced warships from us. Of course.
, you can also choose to purchase carrier-based aircraft from us."
Nicholas nodded: "Carrier-based aircraft, we want to purchase carrier-based aircraft!"
While Nikolai and Qin Tao were discussing how to spend the ill-gotten gains, Asan had already started processing the first linear motor module with great interest.
"No, the accuracy is not up to standard!"
"No, it's still waste!"
After several times of processing, they sadly discovered that they could not process qualified products at all, the accuracy was too poor!
what to do?
"It seems that we can only ask the French for help. Their processing technology is high enough!"
"good."
French T-T company.
"Mr. Raja, it's great that you come to our company to seek cooperation. Our company has been established for hundreds of years and has rich experience and mature production technology." The company received Messag with a smile on his face: "No matter what kind of motor
, as long as there are drawings, we can produce them.”
"We only need a few parts for the motor."
"Everyone, I want to remind you that the production of motors is very complicated and the requirements are also very high. If you only order a few parts from us and you go back and assemble them yourself, you will probably not be able to achieve the design performance. The German tank diesel engine is a
example."
Ah San is rich and wants the best in everything. The Arjun tank they developed themselves wanted to use a German diesel engine. However, after they installed the diesel engine parts that could originally output 1,500 horsepower, they could only output 1,200 horsepower.
Pretty good.
Ah San’s assembly skills are very poor.
Ah San is self-aware of this, but usually he cannot say it, otherwise Ah San will retort very angrily, but now, after hearing Mesag say this, Raja hesitated.
Indeed, if you only purchase a few key parts, errors may still occur when you go back to install them. How about producing them all here?
"Don't worry, we will quote you the lowest price. Even if you only produce one, if you produce ten, we can give you an extra one as a gift."
"Okay, let's produce ten."
Raja knew that time was precious and they must not delay. After all, the aircraft carrier taking a zigzag route on the sea was still waiting.
"Also, our funds are limited now, so we can only pay you a maximum of 20% of the deposit in advance."
"This is okay, but when delivering the goods, you need to hand over the remaining 80% to us."
"good."
It goes without saying that there are many things that everyone knows about Dassault. You can pay the deposit in advance, but the remaining balance must be paid at the time of delivery.
Since the production was to be entrusted to the French, the only choice was to hand over the drawings to the other party. Therefore, the drawings that Ah San spent 250 million US dollars to buy easily fell into the hands of the French.
It almost made the French happy to death.
"The drawings are incomplete. Asan still removed some circuits that they could produce in the drawings. However, this is not difficult for us. We can easily complete them." Messag reported excitedly.
This conference room was full of people, half of whom were wearing navy uniforms.
"Really? That's great. With these drawings, we can produce electromagnetic catapults!"
"Sir Chapelon, you are too naive. How is this possible? The linear motor is only a part of the electromagnetic catapult, and it is also the simplest part. The electromagnetic catapult is complex, and there are three other main systems."
"I know that Ah San only bought a quarter of the technology, but as long as Ah San gets the linear motor we produce, he will definitely buy all the other technologies without hesitation. And I also know that they are sure that they
If you can’t produce it, you’ll have to ask us for help.”
"Yes, we must ask for help! By then, we will have complete electromagnetic catapult technology. We no longer have to look at the Americans' faces, and our second aircraft carrier will also be available!"
France used to have a dual aircraft carrier formation, but now, only the solitary Charles de Gaulle is left. This 40,000-ton small aircraft carrier is no longer ranked among the top five in the world, and will soon not even be ranked among the top ten!
Therefore, the French have also started the development of the next aircraft carrier intensively. The displacement of this aircraft carrier must be large, at least 70,000 to 80,000 tons, so as not to be embarrassed when it is launched. At the same time, this aircraft carrier must also have a catapult, and it must also have a catapult.
It has to be an electromagnetic catapult!
The steam catapult used by the Charles de Gaulle was purchased from the United States. Do we need to purchase the electromagnetic catapult for the next ship? The problem is that the United States has not figured it out yet.
Did they develop it themselves?
When it comes to technology, France definitely has it, but research and development costs money. France’s labor costs are high, and R&D expenses remain high. Fighters cannot evenly share the expenses through mass production, and electromagnetic catapults cannot evenly spread the funds through mass production.
, you will definitely lose money if you develop it yourself.
They couldn't buy it and it wasn't cost-effective to develop it themselves. They were worried, but Ah San took the initiative to send it to them. Welcome, Ah San is really their good brother!
"Yes, our French navy is the most powerful! We also want to have the most advanced aircraft carrier in the world!"
Everyone is full of hope for the future.
Ah San is also full of hope. T-T Company is indeed the best motor manufacturer in the world. After they placed the order, they produced two modules for them in one week!
After getting the module, Ah San could no longer suppress his excitement and officially announced it to the world.
"We Asan have decided to develop electromagnetic catapults ourselves. Our future aircraft carriers must fully popularize electromagnetic catapults! Currently, we are already manufacturing samples and will be able to test them soon. This electromagnetic catapult will be the most advanced in the world!
"
In the video, Asan's technicians have a huge module placed in front of them.
United States, Newport News Shipyard, ship repair dock, USS Kennedy aircraft carrier deck shed.
Sulich looked at the electromagnetic catapult module on the screen with complicated eyes. It was the most advanced electromagnetic catapult module that Asan showed off.
For some reason, he felt a very familiar feeling. When he raised his head and looked at the construction site, he suddenly realized: How come Ah San's electromagnetic catapult module is exactly the same as his own module?
It is absolutely impossible for Ah San to obtain the electromagnetic catapult technology of General Atomics. Ah San’s technology comes from Da Mao, and Da Mao’s technology comes from the East. Did the Orientals steal our technology?
Yes, that must be the case!
Sulich stood up angrily: "I'm going to expose the conspiracy of the Orientals! The Orientals shamelessly plagiarized our electromagnetic catapult technology!"
"Mr. Sulich, do you want the whole world to see our joke?" Barthez's voice sounded.
"Why is it our joke? This is clearly the shamelessness of Eastern people!"
"The shameless Easterners plagiarized our technology, then equipped it on the aircraft carrier, and then sold it to Ah San. Finally, we discovered it, and yet we are still experimenting and experimenting repeatedly?"
Suliqi reacted, yes, others plagiarized his own technology, and then they succeeded, but our own has not. This is unreasonable!
"Then let's..."
"Speed up and make our electromagnetic catapult successful as soon as possible!"
"All right."
"By the way, I heard that the French have also obtained related technologies, so don't imagine that you can make money by selling electromagnetic catapults to the French, but it is still possible for the British."
The electromagnetic catapult, which has cost a huge amount of money to develop, can not only be used by oneself, but also needs to be sold, and it can also be sold at a high price, just like the steam catapult was sold to the French.
But now, the French actually have it themselves!
Sulich's mood was extremely complicated. Has electromagnetic catapult technology spread so quickly? The world is getting more and more chaotic!
Tomsk State University.
"Mr. Alex, why are you back so soon?"
"Yes, let's talk about the purchase of the next few subsystem technologies. We are currently raising funds. Once we have raised enough, we will hand them over to you in one go. Can you give us the technology first?"
"I'm sorry, you raise money first, and we will give you as much technology as you raise," Volkov said.
Are you kidding me? I'll give you the technology first? Here comes the empty-handed wolf again!
"We are serious, I am willing to swear on my life!"
"I'm sorry, your life is not worth so much money." Volkov said with a smile: "Our lives are not worth so much money either. We have no way to help you, but you can come to us and see us.
The first scale model of the electromagnetic catapult is already being manufactured.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So, in the laboratory of the National University, Alex saw the model of the electromagnetic catapult with his own eyes. It is not a model that can only be seen.
But it was usable. When Volkov closed the switch, the airplane model above flew out in a swish.
Alex was very excited when he saw it. Why didn't he make a model first? However, he only had part of it and there was no way to make a model. But looking at it now, Da Mao should have mastered the complete technology.
"Okay, we will use another 250 million US dollars in exchange for technical data on the control system."
"Control system? This system is not important. For electromagnetic catapults, the energy storage system is more important. Nowadays, flywheel energy storage is commonly used. Don't underestimate this simple wheel. Ordinary materials cannot withstand centrifugal force at all.
, our technical information has a complete design plan, if you think about it, if there is not enough energy, the electromagnetic catapult cannot be driven."
"Yes, let's purchase the information on the energy storage system next." Alex nodded.
The energy storage system has a simple structure. It just uses a motor to rotate an electric flywheel and stores energy in the flywheel. When needed, the flywheel drives the motor to reverse and then releases the energy, just like a simple inertia car.
However, the flywheel rotates at high speed and requires quite advanced materials. The various technologies inside may seem simple, but in fact they are also high-tech.
Alex was persuaded, so he went to Damao for the second time and bought back the information on the energy storage system. Raja, who was debugging the linear motor module, looked at it briefly, and then continued to shake his head: "No, we
If you can't make this kind of material yourself, it may collapse due to centrifugal force when the rotation speed reaches half."
"What should we do?"
"It's better to find the French. France should be able to produce this kind of material."
As a result, the French obtained information about the flywheel energy storage system again, and this time handed it over to a well-known French material research and development company. It took several months to develop this special material and meet the performance standards.
The French are very happy. Seeing that the electromagnetic catapult technology is being acquired bit by bit, they will also have such advanced technology!
Not only can they use it for their own use, but they can also export it. Look at the Mingzhou Group in the East. They have made so much money by selling warships. We can do the same!
Dongfang, Mingzhou Group.
"Brother Tao, once Asan and the French have obtained those technologies, will they really develop electromagnetic catapults?" Zhao Ling asked with some worry.
This is a bit like playing with fire. What if you are not careful and cause a fire that cannot be extinguished?
"How can they possibly master the technology that even the Americans can't master? The hole in the medium-voltage communication line will not be filled in another ten years." Qin Tao was very sure.
This is entirely a mistake in the technical route. Only our own technical route is correct, and others cannot learn from it. After all, we use DC because we have a large amount of DC transmission technology in China.
In the fields of UHV transmission and DC transmission, our standards are world standards!
Foreign countries don't do it because they don't have the need. After all, Western countries are generally small and don't need too high technology. We are different. To send electricity from the west to the east, it needs to be transported for thousands of kilometers. The higher the voltage, the smaller the loss.
DC has less inductive reactance than AC, further improving power transmission efficiency.
Therefore, we are the most professional in this area. Americans can’t handle it, but we can handle it easily!
"Among these technologies, the control system is the most complex, and it is something that Americans have never been able to figure out. We finally hand over this technology to them, so that after they spend all the money, they will find that each subsystem can work.
But there will be problems when they are integrated, and they won't be able to solve them," Qin Tao continued.
If Asan bought the control system technology first and went back and found that it couldn't be done, he went to the French and couldn't get it done. Maybe he would stop spending money and get the technology done first.
They must spend all their money and sell American technology to them, giving them the same headache as the Americans!
This move was so enjoyable to play that even Qin Tao felt a little complacent.
"By the way, we got another windfall this time. How will we spend this money?"
Having too much money is also a troublesome thing. You have to worry about how to spend it. Qin Tao smiled: "This is not easy, let's..."
At this moment, Xu Zhengyang walked in: "Mr. Qin, we just received news from Loongson that our chip production may be overcapacity."
