Parker is not a fool. He can't spend money without spending money. Of course, he can't spend money.
If this matter was not even thought about before, they would never dare to think about it. If they wanted to use Western tank power, they would have to pay money to buy it from the West. When would the West take the initiative to come to the door and give it to the prototype for free?
This is all Qin Zhenhua's credit. Parker will naturally not destroy Qin Zhenhua's platform. Even if he returns to Baguo and tells his superiors, he will push all the matter to the first machine factory and want to leave them.
The relationship between the country is not good either. Only fools can pay for things that are not spent.
In particular, Britain has taken the bait, and the UK has sent the tank engines!
With the British tank engine, they have confidence. In fact, they don’t care much about the French power system.
On the one hand, the French's power was 1,500 horsepower. Although the power was higher and the tank's maneuverability was higher, the problem was that the French's engine was not cheap and the structure was complex, so it was not necessarily suitable for them.
Now the French give free packages and then test them. If the performance is really good and the price is appropriate, maybe they will choose this power. If they ask them to pay for the prototype, it will never be possible.
On the other hand, it is strategic considerations.
The opposite Ah San has a good relationship with the West, especially with France. Ah San has bought a lot of arms in France. Ah San’s main Phantom fighter is French goods.
If they use military purchases to threaten France and stop supplying to Pakistan, Pakistan may also face the problem of tanks without engines, so they want to avoid this situation.
Pakistan does not want to see such a situation, so it is not concerned about French goods.
Now, there is no other way to promote this Groz, just one by one, so what about the world first? An engine can be accepted by users by relying on the numbers on the books.
Now, Groz knows that he is going to have a waste of time today, either stop selling this time or give him a prototype. What should he do?
"Mr. Groz, if you feel embarrassed, you can go back and continue to consider it. If there is nothing else, please don't waste our precious time." Qin Zhenhua said: "Please take your own care."
As he said that, Qin Zhenhua said to Parker beside him, "Let's go, let's look at the British engine."
"Wait!" Parker gritted his teeth and said to Qin Zhenhua: "Okay, we can provide you with a prototype for free, but we can only provide one set, which is the maximum tolerance..."
"Let's go, let's not waste time." Qin Zhenhua said to Parker: "You should know that we have to produce at least two or three prototypes, and we have to test them on the test bench. A set of engines?
It's provided."
As he said that, Qin Zhenhua stood up, Parker also stood up, and the two of them were about to walk outside.
"Two sets, you can get two sets at most," Groz said. "This is the maximum extent that my authority can allow."
"Two sets, please keep them for yourself, goodbye." At this time, the two of them had already walked to the door.
In fact, Qin Zhenhua doesn't care. British engines are normal diesel engines at least. For us, we have the potential to be a research subject, but what are the French? Their ultra-high pressure diesel engines are completely alternative to us.
It has no reference value, so I don’t care at all. If the other party does not agree to the conditions, I naturally cannot let go.
"Three sets, I'll give you three at most!" Seeing that Qin Zhenhua's body just stopped for a moment, and then he was about to leave, Groz also took the initiative. Three sets are the largest number he can promise, and he can't get more.
It's right.
"Three sets?" Qin Zhenhua turned his head and looked at Groz. There was a meaningful meaning in his eyes.
Groz nodded: "Yes, when I came, the bottom line was at most one set. Now, I have promised three sets. After I go back, I don't know how to explain it. This is the biggest we can bear.
The bottom line is here. If you don’t agree, then there is no need for us to continue.”
"Okay, then three sets are barely enough." Qin Zhenhua said: "However, we hope to provide us with three more sets of matching gearboxes."
Qin Zhenhua is not optimistic about the French engine, but Qin Zhenhua is still looking forward to the French gearbox.
Although the domestic plan is to adopt Germany's LSG-3000 hydraulic transmission system, and it is also planned to introduce independent production, it is still beneficial to contact with an advanced hydraulic transmission system. Therefore, the British TN37 transmission
The system is needed by our side, and the French ESM500 hydraulic integrated transmission system is also needed by our side. In this way, we can thoroughly study the mainstream Western hydraulic transmission system and then collect our own system.
This is also a plan of Qin Zhenhua, but now, of course, I can't say that.
"Our power system is a supporting system," said Groz. "What's the use of you want our three more drivetrains?"
He was a little wary. Qin Zhenhua was too tricky and had to be careful. If he was not careful, he would be deceived by Qin Zhenhua.
"Of course, it's a matching British engine." Qin Zhenhua said: "We now want to match different engines and gearboxes to find the best and best solution. Perhaps British engines will match yours.
Will the ESM500 hydraulic integrated transmission system be more efficient?"
"Our power unit is already the best," said Groz. At this time, his pride was rising again.
"Mr. Groz, this is our condition, not for you to bargain, this is the final condition." Qin Zhenhua said: "Please think clearly that if your engine is lost, the transmission system may be bid successfully.
What about making a steady stream of profits? Besides, we purchased British engines but chose your transmission system. This is also a kind of affirmation for you."
Hearing this, Groz was very happy: "That's right, even if it is matched with the British engine, our transmission system is the best. Well, I agreed to this condition."
No matter what, we always have to do business. Even if the overall power unit is not bid successfully and has only won the share of the transmission system, it is also good. After all, it can be considered a business.
