The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 367 Wang Yifei's coquettishness, S27 fighter jet

In May 1990, the Stratton Oakmont Company headquarters building in Manhattan, New York.

In his top-floor office, Jordan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city.

The Cuban cigar in his hand was surrounded by smoke, the gold watch on his wrist was worth more than 50,000 US dollars, the custom-made suit he wore was worth more than 100,000 US dollars, and his entire outfit was worth more than 200,000 US dollars.

Although he hadn't dared to dream of such material comforts three years ago, he could only glance at them enviously, and dared not look any further, because the waiters would come and chase him away.

Who told him to be a penniless wretch back then?

However, Jordan Belfort nowadays has no interest in these extremely luxurious material pleasures.

They might even just throw it away without appreciating it at all.

Today, he stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, reflecting on the situation, naturally because he and Andy had completely broken free from the control of Sun Capital and regained control of Oakmont Corporation.

He is the largest shareholder, and Andy is the second largest shareholder; the two of them jointly manage the company.

"Andy, do you think we really need to go public?"

After breaking free from Dylan Dario's control, Jordan was somewhat bewildered.

He used to desperately want to go public, but now all he wants is to make money.

Before leaving Stratton Oakmont, Dylan made three demands.

All three of these requirements involve numerous strategies for manipulating stock price growth.

From shorting Comcast to going long on Walmart and Target, and then shorting Sony.

It can be said that Jordan and Andy have mastered these strategies.

At the same time, the teams they led also made a lot of money.

Once they've tasted the sweetness of success, it's hard for them to go back to their old ways.

In the past, selling junk stocks to those wealthy people could make money, but it was ultimately a risky business.

Moreover, as their business grows, they will receive more complaints.

Now that they no longer have the protection of Sun Investment Company, they can only rely on themselves.

Therefore, it's perfectly normal to change your money-making strategy.

"There's no need to rush into going public."

Andy was also envious of making money by manipulating stock prices, a faster and more convenient way to do so.

It's faster than a bank's printing press.

I wanted to

Jordan immediately put the Cuban cigar in his mouth, took a deep drag, and said:
“I’d like to, but we need to apply for the necessary qualifications, and we need to set up another company to handle this matter. We can no longer manage it ourselves.”

They were also afraid of getting caught in the crossfire, which would be a loss for them.

After discussing it, the two decided on their next direction and then began to take action.

Meanwhile, Dylan Dario also quickly learned of this.

"The professor was right after all. Greedy people can never resist temptation!"

Dylan laughed, a very happy laugh.

Since Jordan and Andy are so 'sensible' as to get involved in the stock price manipulation business, Dylan only needs to keep an eye on things.

It would be great to make some money by taking ridesharing.

We could even increase investment and dominate such a major storm.

In this way, profits will be greater.

At the Want Want Group's New York headquarters, Wang Jianchao had just returned from outside. He had inspected the Pandora brand, which he manages, and then sat down in his office.

Compared to the Pandora brand company.

Wang Jianchao now prefers playing the stock market.

Always fully invested, always with tears in my eyes!
Are there any worthwhile stocks to invest in right now?

After connecting to the internet and entering the communication channel, Wang Jianchao immediately started chatting with everyone.

Lee Evra, O'Brien, Fuller Carson—these are all experts; when it comes to stock trading, they are definitely masters among masters.

"There hasn't been anything in the last two days, but there's no need to rush. We should get some good news from Dylan soon."

After hearing O'Brien's words, Wang Jianchao and the others quickly understood the whole story and couldn't help but laugh.

The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant!

The old sayings really do make sense.

After chatting for a while, the conversation turned to the Japanese stock market.

The Japanese stock market is currently shrouded in gloom.

The peak period is over.

Furthermore, as Sosuke Nao and his team continued to implement more stringent monetary and monetary policies, the market value of real estate-related companies continued to decline, and the decline was rapid.

The stock market as a whole was also affected by the real estate market, and continued to fluctuate and decline.

In April, the Nikkei index had already fallen to 35000 points.

In May, the index has reached 31000 points and is still falling. It is estimated that it will fall below 30000 points before May is over.

Keep in mind that before March, the Nikkei index was still at 38950.

In just two or three months, the index plummeted by 7,000 points—that's terrifying!
This has had a significant impact on the Japanese economy.

After all, the Nikkei index is the 'barometer' of the Japanese economy.

During this period, it plummeted like an out-of-control roller coaster, dropping from a dazzling peak of 38950 points to the current 31000 points, which is truly baffling.

In just over two months, the market value of all listed companies in Japan has rapidly evaporated by more than 20%, like snow melting under the scorching sun.

In Tokyo's real estate market, land prices are falling, property transactions are slowing down, and signs of liquidity problems are beginning to emerge.

All these circumstances demonstrate that the Japanese economy is currently facing a huge crisis.

However, Sosuke Shino and his team remained true to their original aspirations, persisting in implementing austerity policies and strictly controlling the total amount of land finance.

"Yes, the Japanese economic downturn is great news for us. Among the many companies we shorted, our unrealized profits have already exceeded 18%."

Fuller Carson said with a smile, his tone light and cheerful.

He had previously shorted several companies, including Mitsui Properties, and had also been targeted by Lehman Brothers.

But the tide was unstoppable; Lehman Brothers was simply trying to stop a chariot.

If the other party hadn't decisively stopped and then shorted the stock, Lehman Brothers would have certainly suffered huge losses in this wave.

Of course, with the involvement of Wall Street capital firms such as Lehman Brothers, this turned into an international capital massacre of Japan.

This also makes Horizon Capital and other companies under Maple Leaf Holdings less conspicuous.

Nobody wants to be the center of attention, especially in the capital markets.

"That's good!"

Hearing this, Wang Jianchao felt relieved and smiled.

His ninth uncle's strategy worked; the Japanese economy continued its downward trend, just as his ninth uncle had predicted.

However, this process will take about a year.

In other words, the Nikkei index will not fall to 22000 points until this time next year.

Even so, if the market falls to such a severe level, the profits for Fuller-Carson and others will be terrifying.

More than 40%!

For example, if you invest 100 yuan, you can earn 40 yuan.

That's profit!
Judging from the current market conditions, the price will definitely fall to this level by this time next year, or even lower.

Anyway, there's no need to rush to clear out the inventory, because people like Sosuke Naoki won't easily let the bubble economy return.

Therefore, the austerity policy will continue to be implemented.

Unless something unexpected happens, but is that even possible?
In short, the possibility is not high.

The study villa on the lake island within the Weizigou campus of Harbin Institute of Technology in Harbin, the "Ice City".

After a moment's thought, Wang Duoyu still issued an order to the head of the Magic Research Institute: to purchase two S27 fighter jets, as well as the manufacturing technology, equipment, and technology for the S27 fighter jets.

It would be even better if we could recruit more engineers involved in the manufacture of the S27 fighter jet.

Wang Duoyu was quite pleased with this unexpected surprise.

However, this matter cannot be leaked in the slightest.

The S27 fighter jets brought back from abroad certainly cannot be seen by just anyone.

Otherwise, something bad could easily happen.

We'll modify the S27 fighter jet's exterior coating and missile mounting, among other things.

The two fighter jets that were purchased were even used directly as training aircraft.

Once we buy all the necessary equipment and technology, we can manufacture it ourselves.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Duoyu didn't bother with the matter anymore.

To be honest, he didn't think much of the S27's technology.

Although it is one of the most advanced fighter jets in the world, the S27 is only a junior compared to the Mach 5 fighter jet that is about to undergo test flights.

Wang Duoyu dared to guarantee that within five years, the Mach 5 fighter jet would be able to smoothly enter the production line, and then it would not be long before it officially entered service.

However, according to the domestic strategy, the approach is to showcase one generation, produce one generation, and research and develop one generation.

Therefore, the time until a Mach 5 fighter jet is demonstrated is at least after the turn of the millennium.

The J-10 fighter jet will definitely be shown before the Mach 5 fighter jet, not the other way around.

If we can truly master the production and manufacturing technology of the S27 fighter jet, then without a doubt, we will carry out domestic modification of this fighter jet in the future.

To enrich the variety of fighter jets in our country.

Time flies, and it's already late May. There's been a lot of news from abroad.

Dazzling.

That's a dazzling display of skill!

Wang Duoyu wasn't paying attention to these international news reports; he really couldn't care less about them at the moment.

After finishing his business at Harbin Institute of Technology, he prepared to head to the ALD area.

Many of the research projects in the Nantianmen Project are still in the process of being launched, and the technical discussions have not yet been completed, so Wang Duoyu is not in a hurry to approve these projects.

Logically speaking, as the leader of the Nantianmen Project initiation team, he should have been personally involved.

But he himself already has a lot of work to do, so of course he can't do it in person.

All he could do was strictly adhere to that final line during the final review stage.

"I'm planning to go to the ALD district in a couple of days. Xiaoli, do you want to come with me?"

At dinner time, Wang Duoyu suddenly spoke up. Liu Xiaoli was eating and hadn't even opened her mouth when Wang Yifei, who was sitting next to her, interrupted:
"Daddy, I want to have fun."

"Don't talk while eating. Your mother has told you this so many times, why can't you remember?"

Wang Duoyu chuckled, and the little guy stopped, swallowed the remaining food in his mouth, and then repeated it.

Everyone understood what she meant.

Although her pronunciation is unclear, she is most enthusiastic about participating in these things.

The two sisters, Li Shumin and Lu Yuexin, also expressed their desire to go, as did Wang Junkang and the others.

Only Wang Junhong was reluctant to go, because he had already been to the ALD area several times.

But just because the children want to go doesn't mean Liu Xiaoli wants to go too.

If Liu Xiaoli doesn't go, the children won't be able to go.

So what to do?

So the children all looked towards Liu Xiaoli, waiting for her decision.

"Didn't you say you weren't going out this year? And summer vacation is coming soon, and there's going to be an International Congress of Mathematicians. You can't stay in the ALD area for too long, can you?"

Hearing Liu Xiaoli's words, Wang Duoyu nodded and smiled:
"Yes, I'll be staying in the ALD district for a maximum of one month this time, definitely no longer."

"I'll be back by mid-July at the latest, so do you want to come with me?"

Unlike my trip to Beijing before the Spring Festival, this trip to the ALD district shouldn't have as many surprises.

The timeline is fixed; there's an International Congress of Mathematicians in Harbin, and as the host, Wang Duoyu naturally can't be absent.

He had already missed the meeting in 1986, so how could he possibly miss this one, which was being held at his own home?

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoli was about to nod, but then she saw the little ones all looking at her expectantly.

So she suppressed a laugh and shook her head, saying:

"Then I won't go, you go."

Li Shumin, Wang Junkang, and the other children immediately began to lament.

Especially Wang Yifei, she didn't even want to eat. After climbing down from the stool, she went to her mother's feet and looked up at her, acting coquettishly.

"Mom, let's go with Dad! I don't want to be separated from Dad."

The little one is particularly good at acting cute. Her pitiful appearance is indeed a powerful weapon that men, women, young and old cannot resist.

Her maternal grandmother, Meng Pinggu, and her maternal grandfather, Liu Zhensheng, both doted on her.

Liu Xiaoli knew about the little guy's trick, but she couldn't resist it either.

So she was quickly defeated.

After playing with the little kid for a while, the trip to the ALD district was finalized.

Apart from Wang Junhong, Wang Junan, Li Rongrong, and Lu Yuening, who are going to school, the other six children will all go to the ALD district together.

However, since Li Qizheng and Lu Chengwu are too young, three doctors will accompany them on this trip to the ALD area.

The six kids are all quite young, especially Li Qizheng and Lu Chengwu, who have never been to the ALD area before, so we need to be extra careful.

With the development of the ALD area by Harbin Institute of Technology, even the Harbin Institute of Technology School of Medicine has gradually split into two major factions.

One side consists of doctors from the plateau region, and the other side consists of doctors from the plains region.

Doctors in different regions do indeed have different skill levels.

A disease that is rare in the plains becomes a common disease in the highlands.

So it's really hard to explain.

The plane landed smoothly at Ali Airport, which, like the county bus station, was desolate.

Anyway, you rarely see many passenger planes on ordinary days.

Of course, summer is approaching in the plateau region, the snow and ice are melting, and flowers are gradually blooming in the high-altitude areas.

After arriving here, Wang Duoyu immediately went to check on the construction progress of the telescope.

However, Wang Yifei and the other children went to play with their 'friends'.

They have ponies here, and a cute but chubby guy who loves to fight.

"Hehe, this is so much fun!"

June is approaching, and summer is almost here in the ALD area. Although the weather is still a bit cold, especially at night when the temperature may drop below zero, it doesn't stop everything from coming back to life.

Plants that can grow in high-altitude environments have their own set of survival rules.

So when Wang Yifei and her friends arrived at the grassland near the ALD district and saw the chubby kids fighting, they couldn't stop laughing.

Because these chubby, round people all look dull and stupid.

But when they fight, it's quite interesting; they push and shove each other like they're playing house.

Of course, it's only because it's the first time I've seen it that I find it novel. If I saw it often, I wouldn't feel that way.

However, there are still quite a few things to do in the ALD area, and the natural scenery here is already very beautiful.

Summer in high-altitude areas is mostly sunny.

When the sky is clear, you can also see snow-capped mountains and glaciers in the distance, and if you're lucky, you can even see the golden sunrise on the mountains.

For Professors Li Yuming and Zhu Lishun, who have lived here for many years, the golden sunrise on the mountain and other stunning scenery are nothing new.

Accompanied by Professors Li Yuming and Zhu Lishun, Wang Duoyu inspected the progress of the telescope construction.

It may not take ten years before it can be officially put into use.

After the visit, Wang Duoyu thought to himself.

He then went to check out other research institutions.

The Ali camp is currently the only plateau research base of Harbin Institute of Technology in China, apart from Harbin, and it is also the largest research base at present.

Whose research base includes an airport? "Hey, are there any Peking University professors here?"

During a visit to a battery technology institution, Wang Duoyu spotted several unexpected figures.

Those were professors from Peking University. If I remember correctly, these professors shouldn't have joined Harbin Institute of Technology.

"Yes, that is indeed a professor from Peking University."

Li Yuming said with a smile:
"Professor Wang, it's been a long time since you've been here. Our Alibaba base has now established cooperative relationships with several universities, including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Nanjing University, and Xi'an Jiaotong University."

"Many universities have sent research teams to the ALD area to help us with our research."

"Didn't you already promote the Nantianmen Project this year? There are quite a few professors and experts here who want to join in."

The Nantianmen Project includes many technological projects that require the use of technologies such as batteries, biotechnology, thermal control technology, microgravity systems, and material performance testing.

Many of the technologies involved are extremely cutting-edge, and some are even areas that no one, either domestically or internationally, has yet to research.

For example, the magnetic plasma engine project that Wang Duoyu himself led—this technology is something that no scientists abroad have researched.

Of course, this was also one of the reasons why experts and professors such as Gao Xiuyong and Li Xingbang were unwilling to take over the project.

Wang Duoyu nodded and said:

"In that case, I might as well talk to them and try to get them involved in the Du Nantianmen Plan."

"But there's no rush now, let's take it slow!"

Zhu Lishun immediately asked curiously, "Professor Wang, are you planning to stay here for the entire summer?"

"Of course not!" Wang Duoyu shook his head and denied it.
"The International Congress of Mathematicians is just around the corner, and I definitely need to get back before mid-July."

Li Yuming and Zhu Lishun suddenly realized what was going on.

They certainly knew about this conference; it was the most important event for Harbin Institute of Technology this year, and perhaps even the most important scientific research conference in China.

Although it was a conference specifically for researchers in fundamental mathematical theory, this was the first time China had participated in such a major international event, and the higher authorities attached great importance to it.

In fact, Wang Duoyu had held many lectures before, and many internationally renowned mathematicians attended each of them.

But this time is different.

According to the information received by Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) so far, not counting the domestic mathematics professors, doctoral students, and master's students attending the conference, more than 5,000 well-known mathematicians from abroad have confirmed that they will come to HIT to participate in this conference.

Meanwhile, at least two thousand people will attend from within China.

This is just a prediction, not actual numbers.

In today's global context, the wave of economic globalization is growing stronger, global trade is becoming more frequent, and connections between countries are becoming closer.

Based on this, mathematicians will be even more willing to come to Harbin to participate in this conference.

Of course, the most important thing is to witness Wang Duoyu, the emperor of mathematics, being crowned for the third time.

It's safe to say that anyone who studies mathematics would love to attend this International Congress of Mathematicians in Harbin.

They were all so eager to witness history.

Wang Duoyu had only attended the conference held in Warsaw before, but he did not attend the one in 1986.

However, this did not prevent him from winning the Fields Medal that year.

This year's session is being held right here on the Harbin Institute of Technology campus, practically in his own backyard, so there's no reason for Wang Duoyu to be absent.

"Now that you mention it, I'm tempted to go back and see that spectacular sight for myself."

Zhu Lishun couldn't help but laugh, but Li Yuming teased him:
"Old Zhu, are you planning to retake math?"

Haha!

In the following days, after inspecting the entire Ali camp, Wang Duoyu locked himself in his room.

Actually, the reason he came here was not simply to inspect Ali's camp, but more to have a quiet environment.

Because he wanted to continue his research on fundamental mathematical theories.

During this period in the first half of the year, he made almost no progress in his mathematical research.

Since he completed the Hodge conjecture last year, he has planned to first promote the South Gate Project, while using his spare time to organize some inspirations for the Riemann Hypothesis and slowly calculate it.

As a result, the Riemann Hypothesis proved to be too difficult a mathematical problem, and the Nantianmen Project involved many complicated matters.

Moreover, besides the Nantianmen Project, there are several other scientific research projects waiting for him to handle related work.

And the Want Want Group, which cannot be ignored.

Wang Duoyu is just a person; he's not Nezha, he doesn't have three heads and six arms to handle these tasks.

He's not like Sun Wukong, who can perform seventy-two transformations to transform into several people to assist him.

So let the Nantianmen Project proceed slowly; he's going to retreat to the mountains to conduct scientific research.

Perhaps after he completes the deduction and proof of the Riemann Hypothesis, and combines it with other theories such as the Hodge conjecture, he may also be able to deduce the relevant calculation formulas for antigravity technology.

Once antigravity technology becomes a reality, it will completely reshape the aerospace field.

For the past six months or so, he has been pushing forward the Nantianmen Project.

But because he had a lot of contact and exchanges with professors and experts in various fields, even though he was 'wasting his time,' he actually became more and more thoughtful about antigravity.

If he remembered correctly, in his previous life, there were already three major theoretical foundations in the field of antigravity technology internationally.

One is the principle of electromagnetic force cancellation.

This is actually about using the force generated by the electromagnetic field to balance gravity.

For example, magnetic levitation technology uses electromagnetic force to levitate objects, while airplanes rely on the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of their wings to generate lift.

Second, the electrostatic force asymmetric thrust mechanism.

In the NASA experiment, different electrolyte materials were used on both sides of the capacitor, creating an asymmetrical electric field distribution that generated a continuous thrust.

Furthermore, this thrust still exists in a vacuum, which may be related to the physical mechanism of the location.

Thirdly, the Tesla coil experiment.

By using two Tesla coils to create a counteracting electromagnetic field to offset the gravitational potential energy gradient, the object can be levitated.

Each of these three anti-gravity principles has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Electromagnetic levitation technology requires continuous power supply and has a limited range of application; the force generated by electrostatic thrust mechanism is small and unstable; and the Tesla coil experiment is difficult to reproduce and its principle is unclear.

These are not problems for Wang Duoyu.

Once the researchers from Moscow arrive in Harbin, Wang Duoyu will take the time to launch this project.

Antigravity technology has very important applications in future aerospace technology, maglev trains and other fields, and Wang Duoyu would never give up such technology.

When the project starts, the scientists from Moscow will be responsible for improving the theoretical foundation, experiments, and equipment, while Wang Duoyu will provide funding, mathematical models, and calculations.

It can be said that cooperation between the two parties is the most correct approach.

After all, no one else on this planet can match Wang Duoyu's mathematical abilities.

"Garlic, why think so much? Anti-gravity technology is still a long way off; even the mathematical problems haven't been solved yet. Not all the professors and experts from Moscow have arrived in Harbin. Let's take it slow."

Wang Duoyu shook his head and chuckled, no longer dwelling on the matter, but instead immersing himself in the study of the Riemann Hypothesis.

He quietly pursues scientific research, but the mathematics community both at home and abroad is eagerly anticipating the upcoming International Congress of Mathematicians.

Everyone is actively preparing for this.

Many people want to come and broaden their horizons, and they also prepare some questions.

Because such opportunities are so rare, attending with questions in mind makes it much easier to quickly resolve long-standing issues while listening to the reports.

If you're just here to see Wang Duoyu get crowned, then there's no need to go through all that.

After all, these people who come to broaden their horizons all have to pay for it themselves.

Those professors and doctors who received invitations from the conference committee naturally have funding from their own countries and do not need to pay extra out of their own pockets.

The others paid for it entirely out of their own pockets.

London, Magic Institute. Several engineers, professors and doctors from Moscow have arrived today.

The people who came this time seemed to be researchers from the Antonov Design Bureau.

Alexandrov was deeply moved by the arrival of these people.

Moscow seems to have truly fallen.

But all of this has nothing to do with him anymore.

He now hopes to go to Ice City as soon as possible because he has received a letter from Nikolai and his group, which contains many photos and an invitation for him to come to Ice City as soon as possible.

Compared to London, Ice City was a perfect fit for Muscovites like Alexandrov.

If you were to rename Ice City to Moscow, it wouldn't feel out of place at all.

Among the letters Nikolai sent were many photos of Nikolai with Viktor Oleg and others.

The backgrounds of these group photos are either Harbin Institute of Technology or the entrance of research institutions.

Putting everything else aside, just look at the rows of flowerbeds hundreds of meters wide at the entrance of Harbin Institute of Technology; they alone are enough to amaze Alexandrov.

After all, Harbin is similar to Moscow in that it is located in a high-latitude region.

Even in May, it would still cost a lot of money to see so many flowerbeds.

Moreover, according to Nikolai and his colleagues' letter, even in winter, Harbin Institute of Technology and other research institutions always have many flower beds at their entrances.

This shows that these institutions are truly not short of money.

Otherwise, in the dead of winter, if those flowerpots are left outside, they will inevitably be damaged by wind and snow and will easily wither.

This is especially true when heavy snow arrives.

In addition to these, Alexandrov also saw many tall buildings in the background of the sightseeing photos inside and outside the Harbin Institute of Technology campus.

This indicates that there are many tall buildings around Harbin Institute of Technology.

The presence of so many tall buildings also indicates the economic prosperity of this area.

It's not just about the words in the newspapers; office buildings are more convincing and demonstrate that Harbin Institute of Technology is wealthy, that Harbin is a very developed city, and that people certainly don't have to worry about food and clothing.

In such a positive and uplifting environment, the research environment is bound to be excellent as well.

Science and technology are the driving force for productivity progress.

Alexandrov strongly agrees with this statement.

"I hope my application will be approved soon."

Compared to Alexandrov, Vay, a mathematics graduate student at Moscow State University, is also facing a major life decision.

Wai was born in 1966 and is now 24 years old. She just received her master's degree.

As a top student from Moscow State University, he should have stayed in Moscow to develop his career.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should be going to work at the Central Aerodynamics Research Institute, which is the unit he has been assigned to.

However, he has now accepted an invitation from his mentor, Aurel Arkady, and hopes to travel to Ice City with his mentor in July to attend this International Congress of Mathematicians.

In addition, the London Magic Institute in Great Britain also contacted him.

To say that Vay has any sense of identification with Moscow is actually not true.

However, it's not entirely true to say there's nothing at all.

After all, he was a native of Moscow, and to be honest, he felt somewhat lost and resistant to the idea of ​​settling in a foreign country like London.

However, he was also very clear about the current situation, and he might regret it if he didn't leave Moscow.

For now, he should leave Moscow.

"I think I'll go to Harbin for the conference first; maybe there'll be something there that appeals to me?"

Wai is very smart and knows how to make choices.

Although he is now very disappointed with his life at Moscow State University.

However, once he makes a decision, he won't easily change it.

Besides Vay, many people in Moscow feel lost about their future every day.

Of course, many more people are fighting for their own interests.

For example, Cleopatra is currently negotiating with Martinez, the head of the Magic Research Institute.

Regarding the sale of the production equipment and technology配套 for the S27 fighter jet, Cleopatra argued forcefully, insisting that he would not budge on the offer without at least $500 million.

Because he didn't pocket the money himself; he needed to pull strings with many people, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to move the equipment and technology.

Martinez isn't one to be taken advantage of, and he certainly won't let the other party rip him off so easily.

Without a doubt, the S27 fighter jet is an incredibly powerful weapon.

If it were just about selling fighter jets, Cleopatra wouldn't be asking for such an exorbitant price.

But Martinez demanded the complete set of production equipment and technology, and even the engineers.

Basically, they simply took away several entities, including the Sukhoi Design Bureau.

So, five hundred million dollars, how much?
not much!

However, it also depends on the timing and circumstances.

The current situation is generally unfavorable for Cleopatra.

If the negotiations continue to drag on and break down, or if the truth is discovered, Cleopatra will have gained nothing.

This was unacceptable to Cleopatra, who wanted to fill her wallet to the brim.

So when mid-June arrived, he finally relented and stopped insisting on $500 million, agreeing to a package deal of $420 million.

Instead of pressing his advantage, Martinez contacted his boss to inquire whether such a price was feasible.

Wang Duoyu, who was far away in the ALD district, was busy with his own business, so this small acquisition did not bother him.

The senior management team, consisting of Zheng Baoyin, O'Brien, Wang Meili, Lu Qingsong, and Li Efra, discussed and decided on this matter.

Wang Jianchao, who had recently made a small profit in the stock market, agreed to acquire the company for $420 million, but Wang Meili, considering the cost, thought the price could be lowered further.

However, Lu Qingsong, as a former teaching assistant in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Harbin Institute of Technology, was one of the most professional talents among these executives, so he agreed with the price of 420 million.

When faced with her man openly contradicting her, Wang Meili gave him a look, telling him she would settle the score with him when they got home.

However, on the other hand, executives such as Wen Shixuan and Tong Zhigang also believed that the price of $420 million was very reasonable.

In other places, let alone $420 million, even if you offered a lot more money, it would be impossible to buy such a complete set of production equipment and technology.

Be content with what you have and find happiness in it!
So a group of executives voted. Although they were all talking in an internet chat room, they still needed to type in text in the chat room to confirm the accuracy of their votes and to record the meeting minutes.

After the matter was finalized, Martinez quickly received the information.

They immediately found Cleopatra and discussed the details of the deal.

Since two S27 fighter jets had already been traded before, there was still some trust between the two parties.

Therefore, the subsequent transactions were relatively easy and simple.

Two huge ships from Lotte Group's ocean shipping company arrived at the German port.

The transaction was completed smoothly in just half a month.

After the transaction was completed and the final $200 million payment arrived, Cleopatra was still somewhat dazed.

Is this done?
That's incredibly efficient!

In the suburbs of Harbin, Lu Qingsong and Wang Meili appeared here to check whether the factory buildings were ready.

"Old Lu, do you have to be so serious? It's just an S27 fighter jet. My Ninth Brother will definitely be able to build such a plane in the future."

Seeing how serious and responsible Lu Qingsong was, Wang Meili couldn't help but say something.

The factory in front of us is far from the city center, and the nearest village is more than five kilometers away.

There are many woods around, and this area has been designated as a restricted area, so ordinary people cannot easily approach it.

There are several residential communities around the factory, which are currently uninhabited, but are being cleaned and tidied up.

In other words, people will be moving in here soon.

When the S27 fighter jet production equipment shipped from abroad arrives at the dock on the Songhua River, most of the workers and engineers will go to the dock to bring all the equipment back to the factory production workshop.

Once the equipment is properly tested and there are no problems, construction of the S27 fighter jet can begin immediately.

Lu Qingsong understood their importance, of course, so the factory was crucial and could not be lost.

"You don't understand beauty. Don't cause trouble. Just watch quietly."
