It is the earliest type of submarine in China, and it is estimated that the military has been thinking about the armor of the second-class submarines for a long time. The Select-class submarine also has its own considerations, that is, considering that the class submarine is, after all, a type of submarine that has now been decommissioned in China, and it is estimated that it is also the most unclassified type of submarine in the world, and the Americans have studied this type of submarine very deeply, and will ensure to the greatest extent that even if something goes wrong in the cooperation with the Alice Group, they can do their best to protect their secrets.

After all, Alice is a Sino-foreign joint venture, and the trouble is that it is still private capital, and it is really strange that the domestic military does not beat the drum in the heart of this cooperation. Although the military has purchased a lot of equipment from the Alice Group before, military vehicles and submarines are two completely different concepts for national defense and security.

Zhang Lan himself maliciously estimated that if the manufacturer providing lithium-ion batteries this time was a research and development institution under the military. It is estimated that it is very likely to be directly equipped with the Song-class submarine under development.

The whole is the cost of the renovation of the renovation project! Kawan, well, the unit is RMB, of which the procurement expenditure for lithium-ion batteries is about 10,000 RMB.

If it is a heart of ten thousand dollars, this experiment can be executed perfectly, but Qu Wan yuan? Looking at this plan, the modification funds, and then looking at the requirements for lithium-ion batteries in this project, Zhang Lan couldn't help frowning, what is this money enough for? Even if they consider that such a backward submarine is not worth investing so much money in refit, they can't even guarantee the most basic experimental funding requirements, right?

If it is a traditional civilian science and technology research, you can still say that the funds are tight, but the state has always been very generous in the research and development of national defense science and technology, and it has been separately listed in the financial budget?

"Uncle Zhang, with all due respect, this of yours. Experiments, the price of the battery part is not considered enough, of 10,000? If you really provide batteries at this price, I think it will only be able to provide about one-eighth to one-tenth of it, I don't know how this price is calculated? Or is there any guy who told you that the price of lithium-ion batteries is cheaper than the price of traditional chinic acid batteries? Zhang Lan frowned and said to Zhang Dingjun.

This kid is not polite at all, but obviously, this kid did not throw the door and went away has given these guys a lot of face, not to mention the submarines made in China, the cost price of each is about 100 million US dollars, and the cost of the Ming acid battery equipped on it is about 10,000 US dollars.

The price of submarines purchased from abroad is even more expensive, the Americans basically do not produce conventionally powered submarines, this is not mentioned for the time being, even if it is a European conventionally powered submarine, the price of one is about 100 million to 300 million US dollars, the key is that they will not sell it to you if you have money.

Count the world's Fan Causes. We are willing to provide submarines with decent performance and reasonable prices to China. Probably only Lao Maozi.

If you take the Kilo-class submarine purchased by the domestic military from Russia as an example, this price is more objective, the purchase price of a submarine is about about one dollar, even if it is a conservative estimate, the price of the battery pack is about ten thousand dollars, remember, the unit is US dollars, not RMB!

And now these guys actually want to use 40,000 yuan to let others do the work of persuading 10,000 US dollars, are they all fools when they are others? Ahem, this is not taking into account the relatively high cost of lithium-ion batteries. Although it must be admitted that Zhang Lan is very patriotic, Zhang Lan definitely has no idea of being the wronged boss in his heart, and it is not impossible to give them preferential treatment. But if you plan to see yourself here to fight the autumn wind, then these guys can't help but feel that they are too easy to bully.

"Commander Zhang. You didn't come here in such a hurry just to entertain us, did you? Alice still had a flat smile on her face, "That's not a good joke.

"I know" as a veteran who has dealt with the Navy all his life. How could Zhang Dingjun not know that the funds in this project book were seriously insufficient, but what could he do? Zhang Dingjun, who also felt depressed, spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "Miss Alice, I won't hide it from you, I have also reported this matter to the above, but the above said that the funds are tight now, and I hope that we can overcome the difficulties ourselves and make this experiment a complete success." ”

Oh my god! Zhang Lan couldn't cry or laugh in her heart: Which bastard formulated this project? Just a little money. Do you still want to complete such a big project? This guy didn't deliberately come up with this plan to embarrass Zhang Dingjun, this poor guy, right? Overcome difficulties? Other difficulties are enough, but if it is the most basic financial problem, then there must be relatively sufficient financial guarantees, right?

Although the domestic national defense expenditure has not been very high, but with the reform and opening up, the new site of the national station has been changed to: concave and shining, please take care of the light! The condition of the operation is constantly improving. National defense R&D funding is only relatively dry! The former loose towel "uses such harsh conditions to ask others to develop for themselves, Zhang Lan estimates that there is probably something wrong with this.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhen shook his head depressedly: The military's R&D funds in the past two years have been sufficient compared to before, but I didn't expect these guys to be so petty in doing things, how do you feel that these people are acting like children? Can a country's defense be a joke?

Zhang Dingjun also felt aggrieved in his heart, in fact, he had reported several times on this issue, but the reply above was always "I hope you will overcome difficulties and believe in you organizationally." , trust us? Trust us and we'll be able to make money? The depressed Zhang Dingjun even wanted to stuff the reply he received directly into the mouth of the guy who replied to him.

"In that case, we are involved in this project," Alice thought about it for a moment and nodded slightly, "But as a partner, we will submit a review request to you for the project's seriously insufficient budget, if the review still requires us to pay for it,"

What follows, Alice didn't say. But her attitude has been clearly expressed, if you still play this hand, then I'm sorry, Miss Ben won't accompany you. ,

Although the conditions are a little harsh, but such a good opportunity to intervene in the naval equipment sequence, Alice will naturally not give up, the conditions are harsh? This is simple, as long as you are willing to put forward conditions, then it is not a problem, you can continue to talk about this issue! As long as there is an opportunity to enter this procurement sequence, it is a victory.

"Thank you" Zhang Dingjun, who was originally a little apprehensive and worried that Alice would leave directly after hearing his conditions, heard Alice say this, the breath in his heart finally relaxed, and he nodded hurriedly, "Miss Alice, don't worry, I will talk about this matter with you when the time comes."

For this project, Zhang Dingjun is undoubtedly twelve points in favor of this project, but for such a small experimental fund, Zhang Dingjun also feels aggrieved: if the gap in funds is not large, then it is just a matter of overcoming the difficulties by himself, but the problem now is not the problem of the gap, the gap of nearly double the force, who will not feel a headache? Alice was able to agree to this matter, which was already beyond Zhang Dingjun's expectations.

"Of course, you can refer to the price of similar products in the world, and then look at the quotation and performance comparison we give you, and see if we take advantage of you. Or you can also refer to the price of lead-acid batteries for submarines at the international advanced technology level, we will not take advantage of you, but you can't let us suffer, right? Alice said to Zhang Dingjun in a tone similar to a joke.

Well, if this girl's words are really understood as this girl is joking, then Zhang Dingjun's IQ is also lower, Zhang Dingjun is not a fool, of course he knows what Alice's words are similar to Xide.

However, after decades of professional career, Zhang Dingjun also knows that there is no hatred for no reason in this world, why did those guys above make such a strange request that is almost mentally retarded this time, Zhang Dingjun does not plan to understand, for this veteran, no matter what, no matter how you toss, as long as it is beneficial to the development of the navy, then Lao Tzu doesn't care how you toss.

"Then I'll prepare a letter of intent. That's right". Zhang Dingjun suddenly patted his head, as if he remembered something, Zhang Dingjun with a smile on his face sent an invitation to Alice, "There is an event in our base tonight, Miss Alice must come to participate tonight." ”

Zhang Dingjun, who finally waited for Alice's clear answer, was smiling at the moment, and Zhang Lan and Chenxi were obviously regarded by Zhang Dingjun as coming to make soy sauce.

"Alice, what do you think of this project?" In Ming's car, Zhang Lan and Alice Xiao Chenxi chatted about each other. "Is it possible to be one of us in the future. Important business to develop a little? ”

Zhang Lan even had a faint feeling in her heart that if this experiment was successful. Then the military will most likely consider replacing the lead-acid battery in the Song-class submarine that has just been launched in China for a long time, although the advance purchase cost of lithium-ion batteries is more expensive, but the extremely low cost of use and maintenance of lithium-ion batteries is incomparable with traditional lead-acid batteries in any case, and this account will be calculated.
