    Qi Yiming, accompanied by his old subordinate Zhou Yutong, held talks with Chavalit Yongchaiyu, a representative of the Thai military who came to purchase weapons, at the Capital Hotel.  Guibao Hotel is one of Jacqueline's important industries in China. In just two years, this beautiful and strong executive has opened eight hotels in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Qingdao, Nanjing, Hangzhou and Hong Kong.  In addition to the two branches in San Francisco and New York in the United States, ten of them have received five-star standards.  As a newcomer to the industry, even though China has offered many preferential conditions to attract investment, Jacqueline's own skills are worthy of recognition.

    Before meeting Yongchaiyu, Zhou Yutong gave Qi Yiming some background information in advance: "Yongchaiyu is a capable person. He is now a general and the commander-in-chief of the Thai Army. He is considered to be the commander-in-chief of the Thai Armed Forces in the future.  . He not only leads the army, but also engages in politics and economics like most generals in Thailand. He leads the army to start rural development projects, which is said to have achieved certain results.¡±

    Similar to the PLA not long ago, the Thai army is also engaged in business. It is not that the country cannot support them, but the Thai army does not have such a high level of consciousness. Why not make money by relying on guns and their status as soldiers.  Most of Thailand's politicians were born in the military, and one military government followed another. It was not until the 21st century that the military gradually faded out of the mainstream political field, but it still played an important role.  For example, in the political turmoil in Thailand in 2013, the red shirt army and the yellow shirt army faced off against Bangkok, both hoping to gain the support of the military and defeat the other side.

    Zhou Yutong said again to Qi Yiming: "This time the Thais came to the capital in a hurry and ordered such a large number of weapons. There is another important factor. After the Southern Liberation Army drove the Malaysians to Kelantan and Terengganu, there were still some Malay people.  People poured into Hat Yai, Pattani, Narathiwat and other places, and many of them carried weapons, causing great trouble to local security. Over the past six months, the Thai military has repeatedly mobilized troops to follow them in these areas.  Although the Malay armed forces basically win more and lose less, the pressure is still considerable. Therefore, the Thai military hopes to obtain the weapons we have obtained to fight against the Malay army and protect its southern land."

    Qi Yiming became calmer after understanding the urgency of Thailand's desire for weapons.  After the Chinese representatives entered the conference room, the Thai military personnel seemed very friendly, which made people feel that they were full of flattery and flattery.

    At least half of these Thai government officials and military generals are of Chinese descent, and the general in charge, Army General Yongchaiyu, is also of mixed Chinese, Laotian and Thai descent.

    Yongchaiyu said: "We have seriously studied and considered the quotation given by China, and think it is very fair. However, there is still a problem. Our country hopes to obtain these weapons as soon as possible and train them to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. I would like to ask the Chinese side  Can we make a commitment in this regard?¡±

    Even though he has grown bigger now, Qi Yiming has always adhered to the principle of never being overbearing or pretentious. He has played at the level of the United States and the Soviet Union, and he always likes to force others to suffer losses and take advantage of himself, and his service attitude is very poor. Do you like it? Qi Yiming  I think this is very undesirable.  Doing business is about making money by being friendly, and it's not a complete seller's market. Excessive pretense can easily backfire.

    Among the large number of weapons that Thailand hopes to purchase, 0 submarines are the most expensive, with a unit price of -100 million U.S. dollars. Purchasing two ships would cost 600 million. Thailand is still very hesitant about spending this money.  Next are the four E-frigates, which are quite expensive at 100 million each and a total price of 400 million. However, under the supervision of Qi Yiming, the Chinese military industry has a good after-sales system, so it saves a lot of hidden costs compared to European and American products.  .

    The total price of 60 downgraded NIP vehicles is US$600 million. These 500 armored vehicles are also equipped with some module combinations such as command systems, radar air defense, assault guns, field first aid, etc., so the average unit price of US$1 million is indeed not expensive.

    The unit price of 6 NHT26T tanks is US$1.6 million, which is quite cheap among tanks of this level in the world.  The first reason is that it is not a complete version of the Type 26 tank. The weight reduction and elimination of some advanced equipment have greatly reduced its price. The weight of the complete Type 26 tank is similar to that of the Type 99, both weighing more than 50 tons and only 60 tons.  The night vision device and hunter-killer fire control are also powerful. The standard price is US$200,000, and it is estimated that the price can be discounted to about US$200,000 if ordered in large quantities.

    By comparison, the quasi-third-generation tank NHT106 is much cheaper, with a price of US$8-1 million, which many countries like Pakistan can afford.

    The 6-8 rocket launchers are naturally not just 6 tanks. The entire system also includes 6 transport and loading vehicles, 6 10-ton trucks, 4 technical maintenance vehicles, 4 command vehicles, and 6 rockets.  The total contract value is US$200 million.

    20 sets of Feinu 6 air defense systems cost US$30,000 each, with a total price of US$60,000.

    Qi Yiming felt that apart from the Navy¡¯s equipment, which he sold very shady, other similar products from other countries were definitely priced at a reasonable price.

    "In terms of production speed, the Navy may be in big trouble. It takes at least three years from ordering a ship to laying the keel, launching it, outfitting it, and then commissioning it into service. Our shipyard can start construction at the same time, but the fastest  It must be early 19UU when you see the ship.Foreign submarines may be slightly faster, but they won't be much faster.  If you need it faster, I'm afraid there will be an expedited fee.  "

    Yongchaiyu said quickly: "We understand that the production speed of naval equipment cannot be very fast. If we can get four frigates in early three years, we will be very satisfied. As for the AIp advanced submarine, it is too expensive. We still need to go further."  The discussion will not be included in the contract for the time being.¡±

    Qi Yiming was not surprised by this. Countries like Thailand cannot afford to buy AIP submarines. If they remove the AIP system, it will be at least 40% cheaper. Although B100 million is still a bit more expensive, it is definitely a material.  Value for money.

    "The Army's equipment is relatively easy. We can complete the shipment of 60 NIP combat vehicles within one year. The first batch can deliver 100 vehicles within three months after the order is signed, and then 100,150 combat vehicles can be delivered every three months.  Until all vehicles are delivered. Of course, this production speed will affect our domestic manufacturing capacity, so we will still need to add an amount of money. Each vehicle will cost an additional US$20,000, so the total contract will require an additional US$1.06 million.¡±  Qi Yiming's call for 1.06 million US dollars was not unfounded. He rarely left these external sales orders to the base, but let the military industry companies handle them themselves.  Although it is basically a lie to say that it takes up domestic production capacity, because more than 95% of the equipment of the PLA comes from the base, and the military industry enterprises do not occupy a large share.

    "If the base's combat vehicle factory is allowed to produce them, 60 multifunctional infantry vehicles can be completed in almost a week, and there is no need to delay them for a year.  Calling out one year, Qi Yiming also roughly measured the manufacturing capabilities of military industrial groups such as Norinco.

    The Thai military representatives whispered to each other that it would be best to complete all deliveries within one year. However, the increase of US$1.06 million was a bit painful for them. However, if they could invest as soon as possible to deal with the Malays who are looking for trouble in the southern region,  , but it¡¯s worth it.  Thailand also has some American-made 150Nl13 and other armored vehicles, but they are basically one generation behind multi-purpose infantry vehicles. At this time, the number is also insufficient, and there is an urgent need to purchase new equipment in large quantities.

    Yongchaiyu made another request: "We saw in the brochure of Norinco that your country produces an automatic rifle called CP26. We are very interested. We hope that your country can provide us with a batch for evaluation. If we  If you are satisfied, you may purchase in large quantities, standardize it, and require certain domestic production and assembly capabilities.¡±

    Qi Yiming was stunned. He had been abroad for too long and had no idea what new things the military industrial companies in his country had made. It was only when Zhou Yutong handed him a pamphlet that he suddenly realized it.

    What are you talking about mbatBIfe26? This is clearly the E26 automatic rifle produced by E Herstad North America Branch. This is a naked copycat.

    But the E60 rifle has not yet been designed, so there is no problem in openly using it as your own.  The gun model that was originally launched at the Abu Dhabi International Defense Exhibition in 2011 appeared more than ten years in advance.  It was mainly produced to provide NATO-standard weapons for the PL-10 Blue Army Division.  After purchasing a batch, they have been distributed to the troops for use, and the evaluation is pretty good.

    Mainly because of its sci-fi and compact appearance, many people who think the AK series is more rustic and the 95 series are more weird give it a thumbs up.

    In addition to the CP26, Norinco has also shamelessly plagiarized some other rifles launched by famous Western companies after the new century.  For example, the 8AR series rifles, which are also E, are designed in the RmmR domestic caliber this time. It seems ambitious and intended to satisfy some voices of dissatisfaction with 95-l.

    In addition, they also launched the second improved version of the Type 95, the 95-2 rifle. This rifle has also made many improvements to the 95-l, especially such as the position of the speed switch, serious smoke, serious copper hanging, and poor workmanship.  If there were any problems, they would be greatly improved.  What surprised Qi Yiming the most was that, perhaps copying the idea of ??a later Canadian company, the 952 modularized the handle so that it could be disassembled and replaced with a guide rail that made it easier to install a scope. This received a lot of praise.  .

    I don¡¯t know how much some light weapons cost, so naturally some people want them, and Qi Yiming doesn¡¯t refuse to sell them. I believe that Norinco¡¯s copycat E26 itself is aimed at the international market.  Through the use in Thailand, this good gun may be promoted to many countries.

    After setting some additional costs, Qi Yiming made a package of all the above equipment, with a total price of 200 million U.S. dollars. It is a bit weaker than the red gold tycoons like Saudi Arabia, but it can also satisfy the national military-industrial complex.  Qi Yiming didn't pay much attention and devotion to this business because at this time, he was more nervous about the upcoming 13th National Congress.
