Volume 1 040 Iran Compromise

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Originally, Nazar wanted to launch an attack, but unexpectedly, Qi Yiming turned him into a sales meeting.  Nazar also knew about China's tough stance at this time. It would be absolutely impossible for them to spit out the dollars from their pockets. If China, which only knows money now, is tricked by Iran, it is very likely that it will be like Qi Yi.  As Ming said, retaliate against Iran at all costs. If Iraq really receives a large amount of Chinese assistance, the unlucky ones will be the Iranians themselves.

    Although it did not achieve the result that Nazar hoped for most, it can be regarded as a benefit to a certain extent.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that in exchange for China¡¯s commitment not to sell aviation weapons to Iraq, it will have to spend a large sum of money to purchase 30 Xiaolong fighter jets from China.  What is gratifying is that China's delivery speed is very fast. It does not take many years from ordering to final delivery like ordinary military procurement. Basically, delivery can be completed naturally within a few months.

    In the end, Nazar only said that he would report the situation to the country and did not leave any statement. Obviously, this Persian with no grace was very dissatisfied with Qi Yiming's intimidation towards him.

    Qi Yiming didn't care if he hated him. He was an ordinary envoy abroad, and he was still on the Tu family's own territory, so he couldn't make any big waves.

    Liao Huairen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he followed Qi Yiming out of the Iranian Embassy, ??but he felt as good as eating shaved ice in the summer. In diplomatic situations, diplomats who are languid are not liked by others, and diplomats who make a statement are not liked by others.  That's admirable.  Back then, when the Chinese diplomats were relatively poor and weak, they dealt with others in a subtle way.  For example, some small things, such as an American reporter seeing Premier Zhou using a Parker pen and teasing the Chinese Prime Minister for actually using an American pen. The Prime Minister smiled and replied that this was a gift captured by volunteer soldiers from the Korean battlefield.  Another example is when Comrade Xiaoping visited the United States. The President of the United States asked him to allow Chinese people to freely enter and exit the country and immigrate to foreign countries. Comrade Xiaoping replied, "I will throw 10 million people at you. Do you dare to take it?"

    Although Qi Yiming's tone was louder and more domineering, he also took a fancy to the Iranians' fierce appearance and softness.  In diplomacy and negotiation, it is absolutely impossible to be afraid of losses, let alone to look forward and backward.  As far as Qi Yiming is concerned, losing Iran's 70 Tomcats is definitely a huge blow, but Qi Yiming believes that he can bear this blow.  On the other hand, whether Iran, which has offended him, can withstand his thunder and wrath is another matter.

    Whether it is fully supporting Iraq or completely cutting off arms trade with Iran, it will bring unpredictable and even devastating consequences to Iran's war situation.  So the Iranians seemed to be angry, but they were just threats like Qi Yiming.  It's just that their threats were very weak. Qi Yiming refused to accept them, and then they threw them back to the Iranians, but the Iranians couldn't take them.

    Liao Huairen asked Qi Yiming: "The Hongqi-2B is our country's main anti-aircraft missile. It was just finalized and mass-produced last year. Our troops have just received one battalion. If the Iranians really want to buy it, will we really sell it?"  Give it to them?"

    Qi Yiming couldn't help but laugh: "We have at least provided one brigade of Hongqi-9 air defense missile systems to the Air Force's missile force during this period. Naturally, it is impossible to keep things like Hongqi-2 in our hands. Hurry up.  If anyone wants to sell it cheaply, there is a huge gap in performance between it and the Hongqi-9.¡±

    In fact, purely from a technical perspective, the combat capabilities of the Hongqi-2 are stronger than the more common SA-2 air defense missiles in this era, mainly due to its relatively strong anti-interference ability and larger size.  The later version of the Hongqi-2B has greater range and accuracy.

    During this period, although the Hongqi-2 had been in final production for a long time, there were not many battalions of anti-aircraft missile units across the country.  Compared with the huge scale of nearly 120 battalions equipped with various types of anti-aircraft missiles in later generations, one battalion of the current missile force has fewer countermeasures equipment, fewer launch vehicles, and the missiles are also quite backward.  Because Qi Yiming is currently building a homeland air defense model with guidance missiles for main fighter aircraft, the air defense missile force has not increased its production capacity at full capacity.

    "Giving our current air defense missiles to the Iranians, the money in exchange is not the PLA's own military expenditure. I don't have the spare time to allocate the insufficient production plan to the production of Hongqi-2, which will not be used anymore.  On top of the weapon."

    Liao Huairen said: "Isn't the FC-1 Xiaolong not equipped with our troops? You are still producing it."

    Qi Yiming immediately retorted: "That is different. The production after Xiaolong will also be transferred to Chengfei. I will not continue to produce this. It is mainly to give our foreign trade fighters a good start and make  Advertising and so on. In the future, we will not be able to use weapons like the Rhino tank, Xiaolong fighter, and Hongqi-2, but they are cheap, powerful, and cost-effective, and they are quite good choices for other countries. "

    "Well, you plan to do it again?How much does it cost to give Iran 30 Xiaolongs?  "

    Qi Yiming chuckled and said: "This is real money in exchange for money, but compared to other fighters in the world, the price of Xiaolong is still extremely cheap, 8 million per aircraft. This is the price of flying away. If  Including personnel training, infrastructure construction, weapons procurement and follow-up maintenance, the price is almost 10 million US dollars. "

    Liao Huairen couldn't help but gasped: "This is 300 million US dollars?! Sure enough, it is too easy for you to make money."

    He thought for a while and asked: "What are you going to do with the money you've earned?"

    "Well, I haven't thought about it, but I can't keep everything in my hands. It doesn't look right. I plan to hand over 60% of the profits to the country, and the remaining 40% will be used for other construction of the base, including the purchase of F-  14. Let¡¯s wait for the operation of a series of projects.¡±

    Liao Huairen breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Qi Yiming would use this opportunity to "grab" a lot of benefits. Otherwise, it would not look good in the eyes of interested people. As long as it was handed over to the country and used in the right way, there wouldn't be too many problems.

    Qi Yiming himself is quite generous with money. Besides, there are not many places where he needs to spend money in this era, so he has not thought about getting some money from other places.  Before traveling through time, he had a small wish to become a rich man, but after traveling through time, he felt that these thoughts were all in vain.  What he has built can be more meaningful and valuable than the rich man's industry.

    About half a week later, the Iranian embassy did not send anyone to see Qi Yiming. Instead, it directly sent them an application to purchase weapons and a memorandum of understanding specifically banning the sale of Iraqi aviation weapons via fax.  This must be because Iran had to compromise, and Nazar was ashamed to see Qi Yiming, or was still very dissatisfied with him, so he conveyed his opinions in this way.

    But even if the fax comes, you still have to sign what needs to be signed. As an ambassador to China, he can't avoid seeing Qi Yiming.

    The new procurement request includes 30 FC-1 fighter jets and related weapons, plus 6 battalions of Hongqi-2 air defense missile systems.  These are not all, Iran has also filled in some other required equipment into this list, including 100 122mm towed artillery, 100 130mm towed artillery, 250 classic 63-type 107mm rocket launchers, and 500 Hongying  -5 shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles.

    The entire list includes advanced and backward products, with a total value of more than 400 million U.S. dollars. It is another sweet and super big cake.

    Except for the main production of FC-1, which comes from Qi Yiming, other equipment is produced by other military industrial enterprises.  However, the FC-1 produced here by Qi Yiming is the largest business in terms of unit value.

    Iran actually wanted to buy some of those MBT-1000 Rhino tanks sold to Iraq, but this time the bleeding was too severe. After squeezing its wallet and finding that there was not much money left, it could only give up temporarily.

    With the end of this farce-like incident, the first batch of F-14s transferred to China finally arrived at Dalian Port. From here, these F-14s will be handed over to the Shenyang Aircraft Group, which will be handled by them and Grumman engineers.  Work together to absorb and digest the technology, and upgrade new fighters based on this.

    Originally, there was a dispute over who should land the F-14, but Chengdu Aircraft had already obtained the FC-1, which would be exported to countries all over the world. Next, they had to conquer the relevant technologies of the J-10;  XAC is also concentrating on copying the JH-7 and Y-20, as well as special aircraft developed on military and civilian platforms; Hongdu has already transformed and started to produce training aircraft platforms such as Shanying and Falcon; and Daxing  AVIC is also setting up a new aircraft manufacturing plant to develop drone platforms.

    Only Shen Fei is relatively lonely. Qi Yiming allocates tasks according to the actual conditions of his time. However, Shen Fei's role is more special. He has a powerful nickname "Shen Hoy" that is resounding throughout the world.  Shenyang Aircraft Co., Ltd. flourished on the Flanker series after the 1990s. By constantly understanding this series of aircraft and adding some of its own creations, Shenyang Aircraft Co., Ltd. developed the J-11, J-11B, and J-11B aircraft.  -15 carrier-based aircraft, J-16 heavy-duty multi-purpose fighter and many other models. Later, the Falcon, a purely independently developed fifth-generation medium-sized fighter project, was launched. Of course, those who want to find fault can also say - why is this so?  Like the F-22?

    Qi Yiming has not yet unlocked the development of the fifth-generation aircraft, and he does not want to directly throw out the Flanker family to attract the hatred of Mao Xiong to China, so Shen Fei is embarrassed.  Fortunately, with the introduction of the F-14 Tomcat project, Shenfei can continue their copycat business in another dimension.  It¡¯s just that this time the copycat target has changed from the Su-27 to the F-14.

    Based solely on Shen Fei's own capabilities, he is absolutely incapable of digesting the corresponding technologies related to the F-14 in a short period of time and working with Grumman people on the upgrade.  So Qi Yiming sent a 160-strong team of senior engineers from the aviation industry, and took the decision-making power of Shenyang Aircraft Corporation from the central government.In his own hands, he began to carry out drastic reforms to this aircraft manufacturing company, which he knew had many problems during this period in his previous life.
