My Realistic Simulation Game

Chapter 158 Epic Achievement Completed

Izvestia has already reached Kuibyshev through their channels.

It was obvious to everyone that the person on the train was not only bringing three hundred cartloads of supplies, but also a business empire.

Behind them is China's massive production capacity, which can provide them with a continuous supply of materials.

In Kuybyshev at this time, who wouldn't be enthusiastic about such a businessman, and who wouldn't sit still?

As soon as Qin Yuan got out of the car, a tall, bald man rushed over.

"Mr. Qin, would you like a rocket engine? We can discuss it."

This sudden remark completely startled Qin Yuan.

Rocket engine?
Did he hear me correctly?

Qin Yuan hurriedly looked at Xie Miao, who was waiting on the platform. This section chief from the Civil Aviation Administration had been waiting there for some time now.

Having failed to secure supplies in Moscow, he'll surely try to get his share of the profits here.

"Section Chief Xie Miao, and who is this?"

Qin Yuan looked at the bald, burly man and asked.

"This is Grenev, the deputy director of the Kuznetsov Design Bureau. They were quite prominent in the 1980s, but now..."

He shook his head and said, "Mr. Qin, don't take what he said to heart. It's not up to him to decide whether or not to sell the rocket engine."

Qin Yuan immediately understood when he heard the name of the organization.

During the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union in the 1980s, the United States launched the "Star Wars" program, initiating a new round of arms race.

The Soviet Union followed suit, and its rocket department naturally received a huge allocation of resources.

But since Gorbachev came to power in 1985, all of this tilting has stopped.

Over the years, the Kuznetsov Design Bureau, as the main rocket design unit, has never received a drop of profit.

Now that I see the Tupolev Design Bureau has sold seven aircraft and made so much money, I'm drooling.

They didn't care about anything else; their first thought was to sell the rocket engines in their inventory.

Anyway, the country doesn't have this plan right now, and it'll just rust in the warehouse anyway. Selling it can get us resources.

Don't say it, you really don't say it.

Qin Yuan actually had this idea.

He recalled that in the 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Kuznetsov Design Bureau sold the rocket engines in its warehouse to the American Jet Corporation, which then modified them into the AJ26 model and used them on the Kistler K-1 and Antares launch vehicles.

It's cheaper in the US than in China.

After returning to China, it would be a good opportunity to test the waters with your superiors.

This is cutting-edge technology from the era of the US-Soviet rivalry, technology that the Russians themselves will have to research in the future.

Buying it now will definitely not be a loss.

Thinking of this, Qin Yuan immediately smiled and said, "Director Grenev, I know your unit is quite relaxed. I'll have someone send a truckload of canned beef to your unit later, and put it on my tab."

Grenev, who had thought all hope was lost, immediately broke into a bright smile upon hearing this: "Good, good, Mr. Qin, you truly are our Soviet Union's best friend."

Other factory managers witnessed this scene.

His eyes turned green.

The directors of the Kuibyshev No. 1 Bearing Plant, the metallurgical plant, and the gasoline refining company all flocked to Qin Yuan's side.

"Mr. Qin, listen to me. Our factory's bearings are made of aerospace-grade materials. If you have a channel to help us sell them, I will definitely give you the biggest discount."

"Mr. Qin, our metallurgical plant has a large quantity of aluminum. Isn't China currently undergoing industrial development? Our aluminum can be used in door and window frames, roof panels, lightweight automotive components, and rail transit equipment. High-end aluminum can also be used in the aerospace field. Mr. Qin, please consider us."

"Mr. Qin, don't listen to them. What's most important for industrial development right now? It's machine tools and gasoline. Our company has both. If you have any cooperative projects, you can talk to our company."

Qin Yuan was stunned by the recommendations from these factory managers.

He had anticipated these intense gazes, but he hadn't expected them to be this intense.

What should I do? I want every single one of them.

Kuibyshev truly lives up to its reputation as a major industrial center of the Soviet Union; it has so many good things.

This scene surprised Qin Yuan, and Xie Miao, who was standing next to him, was equally unsettled. Did these factory directors of large companies have no manners or composure left?

Selling one's products at such a low and unconventional price without going through any organization is bound to cause problems.

The most shocked person, without a doubt, was Alexei Tupolev, who was over sixty years old and a rigid and meticulous man.

He had been mentally preparing himself for a long time before agreeing to trade canned food for his seven airplanes.

But these colleagues.
Is it so outrageous?
If Grenev of the Kuznetsov Design Bureau knew what he was thinking, he would definitely spit on him.

So you traded seven planes for eight hundred truckloads of supplies, living a life of luxury, and then you'll get a huge share of supplies, allowing the factory workers to live comfortably for a year and a half.

They could only watch helplessly, which was a terrible feeling. "Gentlemen, gentlemen, let Mr. Qin go through first."

Just then, Xie Miao stopped everyone and said loudly, "Let's unload the supplies from the truck first, and then we can discuss how to distribute them together."

The division should be based primarily on the aircraft manufacturing plant, which in turn is directly under the jurisdiction of the Tupolev Design Bureau.

These two units will definitely get the largest share, and then the manufacturers in the various production chains will get a portion in turn.

Finally, there are the other units in the city of Kuibyshev.

Although the first batch of supplies sent by Qin Yuan was quite large, if distributed like this, many units and factories would not receive much at all.

They are also the organizations most eager to start new collaborations with Qin Yuan.

The Kuznetsov Design Bureau was particularly notable in this regard.

However, Xie Miao's reassurance was effective, and Qin Yuan led Chen Jianhua, Xie Linna, and the others out.

On Alexei's car.

"Mr. Qin, I'm sorry, I didn't expect them to be so agitated."

Alexei expressed his apologies in the car.

Qin Yuan shook his head: "Director Alexei, there's nothing to apologize for. Our Far East Trade is an import and export trading company. I'm happy to help them with their urgent needs, but due to various restrictions and our domestic counterparts, we need to spend time finding them, so we can't agree to everything."

Alexei appreciated Qin Yuan's meticulous attitude and nodded, saying, "We have already debugged the first batch of four aircraft, eliminated all faults, and replaced all the parts that needed to be replaced."

"If there are any problems with these four aircraft, you can contact us. If you need to replace parts, you can just fax us a list."

Qin Yuan immediately expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Tupolev. On behalf of Sichuan Airlines and Xiamen Airlines of our country, thank you."

Little did he know that the four planes Mu Qizhong had acquired in his previous life underwent major repairs as soon as they landed, and that the repairs were all handled by the Northeast region.

Kuibyshev's side completely only handles sales and doesn't care about repairs.

Qin Yuan guessed that the fundamental difference in attitude stemmed from the fact that Mu Qizhong had initially been in contact with a series of bureaucrats.

Kuibyshev might not have even come.

The deal was reached through Xie Miao and his group.

He got something for nothing: Kuibyshev got supplies, Sichuan Airlines got planes, and major factories got orders.

He, on the other hand, used the landed plane as collateral to obtain cash directly from the bank.

He made 100 million and then left the market.

Sichuan Airlines is left to clean up all the messes.

It was precisely this crude and barbaric style that foreshadowed his imprisonment.

But Qin Yuan was clearly not like Mu Qizhong; he was much more meticulous in his work.

Upon arriving at the airport and seeing the four brand-new Tu-154 passenger planes parked there, Qin Yuan took a deep breath, turned to Bereksei, and asked, "Director Tupolev, when will these four planes be able to take off?"

Bereksei laughed and said, "At any time, the crew members and the pilots assigned to each aircraft are on standby."

Qin Yuan nodded: "Okay, let's get the handover procedures for these four aircraft done first!"

He couldn't wait any longer.

Berekse was somewhat surprised after hearing this, but he did not refuse.

"I always carry the contract documents with me, but," he glanced at the empty airport, "we'll sign them here?"

There were no reporters, no officials.

That's too hasty!
"Just sign in the car." Qin Yuan didn't mind the surroundings at all and said frankly, "To be honest, Director Tupolev, if possible, I plan to take these four planes back to the country tonight."

Bereksei nodded, and the two returned to the car.

They then signed their respective documents one after another.

The moment the two pressed their seals.

This signifies that the trade of canned goods for airplanes has been achieved.

boom!
At that moment, Wu Weiguo, who was at the station watching the unloading of the freight cars, suddenly looked northeast.

Chen Jianhua keenly noticed his unusual behavior.

"What's wrong, Wei Guo? What happened?"

Wu Weiguo didn't speak, only his heart was pounding violently.

Congratulations on participating in the "Canned Food for Airplanes" epic achievement! Your achievement will now be calculated based on your participation and contribution.

"Brother Yuan, it's done!"

Wu Weiguo looked into Chen Jianhua's eyes and slowly uttered these words.
