Anthony Faulk, who was pale, realized a problem that he had ignored before: the Netherlands is different from China!

China is a poor country with huge potential and the largest population in the world, not only that, but they are also one of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, and most importantly, they have a nuclear armed force that is small in size but can effectively carry out nuclear counterattacks.

And what about the Netherlands?

Although the Netherlands has a series of well-known names in the world, such as Royal Shell, Philips, and Fokker aircraft, the Netherlands is only a small European country after all, and once it faces strong political and military pressure from the United States, the Netherlands really can't bear it.

But China was able to resist, not to mention the Korean War and the Vietnam War, and the world's blockade of China led by the United States a few years ago, has it now been quietly lifted?

Looking at Anthony Falk, who was lost and depressed, Chen Geng didn't say much, and left a sentence of "I'll wait for your news, but it's best not to let me wait too long" and then walked out first.

........................

Anthony Fokker did not let Chen Geng wait too long, and the next afternoon, Anthony Fock, whose eyes were red and who had not rested at first glance, brought the final decision of Falkland-United Aviation Technologies: "Mr. Fernandez, we agreed to your conditions, but we have one condition." ”

"Oh?" Chen Geng was not surprised by the decision of the Fokker aircraft, he nodded: "What conditions?"

"We are going to sign a supplementary agreement," says Anthony Fokker, "and to ensure that this project does not have a bad impact on the reputation of Fokker aircraft, the Fokker Group is involved." ”

What "in order to ensure that it will not have a bad impact on the reputation of Fokker aircraft", in fact, to put it bluntly, is that after Fokker Group realized that it had no way to prevent COMAC from entering the special-purpose field with the F100, they immediately chose the most beneficial way for themselves: to come in and get a piece of the pie.

"Yes," Chen Geng did not hesitate, and happily agreed: "As for the specific way of cooperation, you will send someone to talk." ”

"Okay," Anthony Falk breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Geng's promise so happily, and then made a second request: "Also, Mr. Fernandez, can you give us a loan of $20 million?"

"Loans?"

"Yes," said Anthony Falk, "we use the company's shares as collateral. ”

"Okay," since you are willing to use the company's shares as collateral, it will be easy to do, Chen Geng nodded happily: "I will arrange someone to go to your company for an inspection, everything is subject to the results of the inspection, no problem, right?"

"No problem. ”

Anthony Falk wanted to say that there was a problem, but in this situation, he said that there was a problem, is it useful?

————————————

In the meeting with Anthony Fock, Chen Geng was very strong throughout, but in the meeting with Patrick Settings, vice president of marketing at Boeing, the situation was not so pleasant.

"Mr. Fernandez, we understand that with your support, the development speed of COMAC Group is very fast, and your company's Y-12 model has obtained the FAA certificate, congratulations. ”

"You're welcome. Chen Geng nodded slightly.

"No, Mr. Fernandez, what I'm going to say is ......" Patrick Settings leaned forward, looked at Chen Geng, and said honestly and unceremoniously: "Boeing heard that you are preparing to introduce the Tu-204 passenger aircraft from the Tupolev Design Bureau of the Soviet Union. ”

"So what?"

Chen Geng frowned, a little unhappy.

"So, we advise you to think carefully about it," Patrick Settings said bitterly, with a disgusting look of "we're all here for your good," "Mr. Fernandez, picture— 204 is a 200-seat narrow-body trunk aircraft, similar to our Boeing 757, but as long as you investigate a little, you will find that the sales of Boeing 757 is not very ideal, from the first factory to the present, Boeing 757 has only sold a few hundred, which is not a successful model, the market is not very recognized by this 200-seat class trunk aircraft, they are more recognized by 737, McDonnell Douglas MD-80 and other models. ”

"Really?"

Chen Geng was noncommittal to Patrick Setins' words.

From now on, the 200-seat narrow-body trunk airliner is indeed a bit of excess capacity, and the same is true for Boeing, the Boeing 757 is good, but the problem is that the seat rate often does not reach the best profit line, and the vacancy rate of seats is relatively high, which makes airlines have a headache.

But you must know that the times are developing, in this era in 1991, 130 to 150 seats is the mainstream of narrow-body trunk aircraft, but with the take-off of the Chinese economy, the Boeing 737, which originally featured 130 to 150 seats, has become bigger and bigger, and the Boeing 737MAX has achieved the 200-seat level, which is actually the main market range of the original Boeing 757, so Patrick Setins wants Chen Geng to give up this market range?

He was thinking too much.

"Then there is no need," Chen Geng waved his hand: "Thank you very much Boeing for the reminder, but the product strategy we formulated is based on our considerations, so you don't have to worry about this." ”

"Since you say so......"

Patrick Settings took a breath: Since I reminded you "tactfully" that you don't listen, then I'll be more straightforward: "Mr. Fernandez, I'll just say it directly, Boeing hopes that you can seriously consider the introduction of the Tu-204." ”

Chen Geng's eyes narrowed: "What if I say no?"

At the same time, Chen Geng felt that there was something ridiculous about the matter: Boeing ...... Was this a donkey kicked in the head? He sent such a two-hundred-and-five-and-a-half to talk to him? No, if Patrick Settings can become Boeing's vice president of marketing, how can he be a two-hundred-and-five? So......

Did Boeing do this on purpose?

Want to see if you can bluff yourself in this way?

It seems that there is only one explanation, and as soon as Patrick Setins opened his mouth, he had already figured out why Patrick Setins was so aggressive, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: Who formulated this negotiation strategy?

"Boeing is a law-abiding company, and if you say no, of course we respect any decision you make," Patrick Setins finally revealed his minions: "I'm afraid it will be more difficult for COMAC to get FAA model certification in the future." ”

That's right, I'm here to warn you today, what can you do?

Looking at Patrick Setins, Chen Geng suddenly smiled: "Are you threatening me?"

"No, it's not a threat, it's a reminder," Patrick Settings said with a "I'm just warning you" expression: "After all, your COMAC Group is not only this aircraft, but your other aircraft should also be considered for sale in the American market, right?

Of course, Boeing respects you, and if you are willing to give up the Tu-204, we are willing to compensate you in other ways, such as we can hand over the production of some of the 737 fuselage components to you, and guarantee that the annual production volume will not be less than 500 million US dollars, how about it?"

Patrick Settings looked at Chen Geng proudly, as if he was sure that Chen Geng would definitely agree.

Also, Patrick Setins does have such a reason to be confident.

Although Chen Geng's wealth far exceeds that of Boeing, behind Boeing stands the First Citigroup, one of the top ten American consortia, Boeing, the world's largest civilian technology manufacturer, is the industry of the First Citigroup, the world's largest civil aviation company: United Airlines is the company of the First Citigroup Consortium, and even the most important nuclear counterattack means of the United States: the land-based "Minuteman 3" intercontinental ballistic missile is also from the company of the First Citigroup.

We are so powerful, there are countless spokespersons of interests in the political circles, media circles, business circles, business circles, and military circles to speak and run for us, you Fernandez is just a hairy boy who has just risen for a few years, what is there to do?

Now, if you know each other, just obediently stop introducing Tu-204, take the bone we give you and gnaw it, if you dare to be disobedient......

Chen Geng actually wanted to slap this guy who felt good about himself in the face, but after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed a bit embarrassing to do so, so forget it.

But although there was no slap in Patrick Setins' face, it didn't mean that Chen Geng didn't react to Patrick Setins' threat, otherwise where would his face go?

"Mr. Setins," Chen Geng interrupted Patrick Setins, "you don't seem to have figured it out that I, Fernandez Chen, am not the Dutch gangsters. ”

“......”

Patrick Settings blinked, not understanding for a moment.

"Richer than me?How much market value are you Boeing?" Since he no longer planned to save face for the other party, Chen Geng was no longer polite: "What if you are standing behind the First Citigroup Consortium? Aren't you preparing to buy Macdonald Douglas now? Very good, I'm telling you now, you idiot is not happy, when Mr. McDonald Jr. asked me for help before, I hadn't made up my mind to decide whether to help him, but now ......"

He looked at Patrick Settings with a sneer: "I wonder how much money the First Citi Consortium can come up with to support your Boeing's move to suppress McDonnell Douglas?"

Sneered and looked at Patrick Setins, which was a super one: "I wonder how much money the First Citi Consortium can come up with to support your Boeing's move to suppress McDonnell Douglas?"
