Chapter 1315 - Big Appetite
Furthermore, Feng Yu is not here for a holiday or food. He is here to buy some aircraft carrier technologies to repay his country.
Most importantly, Alexander kept toasting Feng Yu during dinner. Although he doesn’t mind Feng Yu taking a sip every time they toast, Feng Yu still feels uncomfortable.
“Alexander, this food is delicious. Thank you. Let’s start with our business negotiation.” Feng Yu is worried Alexander had arranged other programs.
Alexander is glad that Feng Yu is so anxious. This means he can charge Feng Yu a higher price.
“Of course. Let’s go to my study room to discuss it.”
The three of them walked to Alexander’s study, and his helpers closed the door behind them after serving them tea.
“Feng, Kirilenko told me that you are interested in our Belarus’s shipbuilding technologies.”
Feng Yu nodded. “That’s right. I am very interested, and I plan to build a shipyard. That’s why I want to purchase some shipbuilding technologies.”
All three know that shipyard is only an excuse as no shipyard requires the technologies to build an aircraft carrier.
“I happen to have these technologies. I think you should know that you will not get these technologies from Russia since Kirilenko brought you to see me.”
Alexander tells Feng Yu that since you all can’t get it in other places except me, it will be more expensive.
Feng Yu is prepared. He knows he cannot save on this, but he doesn’t mind spending a bit more.
“That’s why we are here to meet you. I heard you have your ways.”
Alexander proudly replied. “Not only I have ways. I can surely get it!”
“Great. What technologies can you get?” Feng Yu asked.
The former Soviet Union’s military shipbuilding technologies are not bad. Still, Belarus had not developed more advanced technologies in recent years. This is because Belarus is not by the sea! Feng Yu wonders if these technologies are still the original technologies given to them from the Soviet Union.
China’s shipbuilding technologies had been improving these few years. Although they are still far from being the most advanced globally, they still made significant improvements.
Feng Yu does not want to pay a significant amount for some outdated technologies.
In Feng Yu’s previous life, Russia had only kept an aircraft carrier. They can build new ones, but it’s too costly.
As China’s military spending increases, many of its technologies reached world-class standards. Other countries mocked China for spending a fortune on it, and their production cost of an aircraft carrier is doubled of the US.
The most advanced technologies are all developed from money. Sometimes, they might get a brilliant idea and save some of their research funds, but such scenarios are rare.
Luck is important in technology development, and the most common solution is to use the money to develop it.
Alexander asked Feng Yu back. “What type of technologies do you want?”
Feng Yu heard this and felt Alexander talks big. Are you sure you can get whatever I want?
The former Soviet Union owns many advanced aircraft carrier technologies that are still some of the most advanced technologies in the world now. After all, the Soviet Union had spent massively on their military in the past. Almost all the elites in the Soviet Union were deployed to develop new weapons and military technologies.
This is also the reason why the Soviet Union’s economy crash.
“I am interested in all technologies that are more advanced than ours, relating to aircraft carrier battle group.” Feng Yu replied.
Alexander’s eyes nearly pop out. “What did you say? You are interested in all aircraft carrier battle groups?!”
“It’s all the technologies that are more advanced than ours. Although Belarus owns many former Soviet Union technologies, most of them have not been improved, right? Not only do you all lack the talents to improve the technologies, but you all also lack the funds. Some of our China’s technologies are more developed than the former Soviet Union.”
The Soviet Union has been dissolved for more than a decade. China had spent massively and hire people from overseas to develop their technologies. It will be a problem if China has not made any improvements.
Alexander did not expect Feng Yu to have such a big appetite.
Feng Yu is interested in all aircraft carrier battle group’s technologies, and technologies cost more than the actual battle group.
This is why many countries are willing to sell advanced weaponry and not their technologies. One of them is wool, and the other is sheep. With a sheep, you can get unlimited wool.
All weapons will have measures to prevent you from using reverse engineering to protect the technology. For example, some core components will be destroyed when you dismantle them. That’s why the US is willing to sell some of their more advanced equipment.
“Feng, I need to remind you that you are buying the technologies and not the actual ships. Shipbuilding technologies are more expensive than the ships!” Alexander’s breathing becomes rapid, and he tried to control himself not to look too excited.
Feng Yu looks at Kirilenko. “Brother Ki, someone doubts my ability.”
Kirilenko looks at Alexander and laughs. “Don’t worry. Feng had more money than you can imagine. Also, I can be his guarantor. If he couldn’t pay up after you sold the technologies, come and look for me!”
Feng Yu is moved. “Thanks, Brother Ki.”
Kirilenko smiled and did not continue. From his understanding of Feng Yu, he knows Feng Yu is determined to get these technologies.
Feng Yu had told Kirilenko the importance of a good reputation more than once. One can create wealth with a good reputation, and no one will want to deal with you if you have a bad reputation.
Alexander noticed Kirilenko is closer to Feng Yu than he expected. He is even willing to be Feng Yu’s guarantor.
“Feng, you have a big appetite.”
“I always have big appetites. As long as I am satisfied with your technologies, I will give you a reasonable price for it!”
Alexander looks at Feng Yu and Kirilenko and knows they are not joking from their expression.
But Belarus’s economy is not doing well. If Alexander still cannot find ways to make money, it will be more troublesome in the future.
Alexander wants to see how big is Feng Yu’s appetite!
