Selling small motorcycles in mid-air to kick off the Southern Heavenly Gate Project?

Why are such simple weapons and equipment so expensive?

Who gave you the courage?

Common components are assembled together to form weapons and equipment, doubling the price.

No wonder people often say that the arms trade is a "highly profitable" industry.

Qian Huaijin priced the "Airborne Motorcycle" suicide drone at $200,000 per unit.

As for the modified gas cylinder cannon, the total cost is six thousand US dollars, and the price of the shells is three hundred US dollars each.

This price really surprised all the senior executives of Dong'an Machinery Factory present.

A standard mortar in China costs only seven or eight thousand US dollars, and a shell costs only seventy or eighty US dollars.

Of course, if sold to the Yan Kingdom's military, it certainly can't be very expensive.

But selling overseas is another matter.

Qian Huaijin immediately doubled the price.

Currently, the Persian Empire does not have a stable channel for procuring weapons and equipment, and the entire country is already filled with the atmosphere of war.

It needs a stable channel for procuring weapons and equipment.

As for price, that's only second on the list.

The Persian Revolutionary Guard "inherited" most of the legacy of the previous dynasty and is now quite wealthy.

They simply couldn't procure the weapons and equipment they wanted from other places.

After all, a number of countries have imposed a blockade on it.

Many countries are also unwilling to sell weapons and equipment to Persia.

"Gentlemen, the Persian Empire, with its cloth-covered head, currently possesses enormous wealth and rich oil reserves beneath its surface. Furthermore, they currently lack other channels for procuring weapons and equipment."

"Our Dong'an Machinery Factory may be its only stable source of weapons and equipment. There is a reason why it is expensive. If it is cheap, it will be questioned."

Qian Huaijin said it in front of everyone.

The rich dog can afford to have expensive weapons and equipment.

Its price is similar to that of other weapons and equipment of the same type.

When the United States sells weapons and equipment, a profit margin of three or four times is considered trivial; sometimes it can even reach more than ten times the profit.

"Would the Persian Parliament be willing to purchase it?" Zhang Yi'an raised his doubts.

Other senior executives at Dong'an Machinery Factory shared similar concerns.

Qian Huaijin calmly smiled and said, "The air in Persia is filled with the atmosphere of war. The neighboring country of Iraq is watching us like a hawk. Persia desperately needs weapons and equipment. They know that their current stockpile of weapons and equipment is simply not enough to support them in a long war."

Qian Huaijin was certain that the Persian Empire would not be able to find a stable source of weapons and equipment.

Then Qian Huaijin continued, "Leaders, our factory has more than 10,000 employees. If we can earn more, then everyone's welfare and benefits can also be improved."

"Research and development projects require massive investment of funds. Currently, the country is investing most of its resources in economic development. In the future, the research and development funding we can obtain will definitely be greatly reduced. We need to think about our future."

"We'll negotiate the price down to the bottom. If Hai Shan thinks the two weapons and equipment are too expensive, he can bargain with us. It's not a one-off deal."

Most of the senior executives at Dong'an Machinery Factory were clearly persuaded by Qian Huaijin.

Not making money when you can is foolish!

Wanting to earn more money, what's wrong with that?

In the end, the money earned will still be used to pay them wages.

And the research and development of various projects within the factory.

"Let Huaijin handle this matter. He's always looking out for our factory, especially since he developed both of these weapons and equipment. He's the one with the most say in pricing."

Upon seeing this, Qian Zhizhou immediately made the decision and sent Qian Huaijin to negotiate.

He was at least calmer and more composed than everyone else present.

Some senior executives at Dong'an Machinery Factory felt inferior when they met foreigners.

But I've never seen this in Qian Huaijin.

When negotiating with Hai Shan, he was very adept and sometimes even had the upper hand.

This demonstrates Qian Huaijin's excellence.

"Zhang, a week is still a bit tight. We need to get the aerial suicide drone and the modified cannon manufactured as soon as possible. Time waits for no one, we need to be one step ahead."

Qian Zhizhou then looked at Zhang Yi'an beside him and said solemnly.

At this moment, every second counts.

Dong'an Machinery Factory needs a large influx of funds.

Otherwise, more than 10,000 people, more than 10,000 mouths, could have dragged down the Dong'an Machinery Factory.

"Please rest assured, factory manager. I have already arranged for people to follow up. We will be working around the clock on research and development these next few days, and a week should be no problem."

Seeing this, Zhang Yi'an immediately patted his chest and assured Qian Zhizhou.

After the meeting, Qian Zhizhou came to Qian Huaijin's side and whispered, "These next few days, you should stick close to Zhang Yi'an. If you have any suggestions, just bring them up with him directly. I've already spoken to him, and he's agreed."

"And I'll talk to your mother about it."

Upon hearing this, Qian Huaijin smiled faintly and said, "Okay, Dad, I understand."

……

Over the next few days, Qian Huaijin threw himself into the research and development of the aerial suicide drone and the modified cannon.

Modifying the cannon was the simplest, and Dong'an Machinery Factory developed it in less than a day.

After testing, the results were quite good.

Just like Qian Huaijin said, one shot can destroy a building.

In particular, the addition of more powerful explosives made it even more powerful than expected.

The development of the aerial suicide drone was also quite fast, but after testing, there was a rather big problem.

That is, the aerial suicide drone makes a lot of noise when it is flying in the air.

This will have some impact.

But you can't have your cake and eat it too.

If you want advanced drones, you'll need to spend more money.

"Uncle Zhang, this is what a suicide drone called 'Flying Motorcycle' costs, which costs 200,000 US dollars. It has advantages and disadvantages. If you want better performance, we can install a more powerful engine on it."

Qian Huaijin quickly began to explain.

Dong'an Machinery Factory is a key military enterprise in China specializing in aero-engines.

If the Persian state were interested and willing to pay a higher price, Qian Huaijin would certainly be willing to replace the engine of the aerial suicide drone with a more powerful one.

Of course, a suicide drone equipped with a more advanced aircraft engine would be much more expensive, and Qian Huaijin and others certainly wouldn't be willing to release it so quickly.

This is a one-time consumable. We'll have to wait until we sign a contract with Persia and they make the payment before we can show them the performance of the upgraded aerial motorcycle suicide drone.

……

Meanwhile, Haishan's worried expression disappeared considerably when she returned to the guesthouse.

Coming to Harbin Dong'an Machinery Factory this time was the right decision.

We will be able to see the actual testing of the two weapons and equipment a week later.

Furthermore, these two types of weapons could easily bypass the blockades of various countries and enter the Persian Empire.

Another point is that, according to information revealed by Qian Huaijin, Dong'an Machinery Factory would not mind selling its technology to Persia.

At that time, the Persian Empire will be able to use this to produce a continuous stream of aerial suicide drones and modified cannons.
