Chapter 620 Li Mo's doubts

The conversation between Somali representatives and Ukrainian military and military enterprises was full of relaxed and harmonious atmosphere at the beginning.

One is in a hurry to purchase, and the other is eager to order to make a profit. With the last cooperation between the two countries on the missile boat, the focus of the negotiations between the representatives of the two countries is on the price of arms.

"30 million one? Oh... No, this price is too expensive. Even if Russia's current Su-30 and Su 33 only have this price, these Su-27 fighters in your country obviously can't reach this price. When Hussein heard the price quoted by Ukraine, he shook his head repeatedly.

"According to the data parameters of the three models of Su-27 given by your country, your fighter jets have been in service for 20 years and have hardly been upgraded. They don't have an electronic countermeasure system. Radar computers are still antiques in the 1980s in the world, and the missiles used are R-73R. You know, the former Soviet Union studied the Su-27 in order to fight against American F-15 fighters. Now all the Su-27s in your country, not to mention the F-computers that have been modified with the United States. 15E, even F-15C is very different.

"The most important thing is that these fighters in your country are not new. They have been used for more than 20 years and then sold at a production cost far higher than her. Our political axe will never agree with me to do so."

Hussain stared and shook his head repeatedly, indicating that he could not accept it. Joke, the overall surname of the Su-27 equipped by Ukraine is similar to that of the current Russian export Su-27SK, but it is still far from the electronic confrontation system. The export price of Su-27SK is only 25 million to 30 million. It is absolutely impossible for these Su-27 and Su-27S to sell new fighters.

His understanding of the Su-27 fighter, although it has been a bad one in the past few days. It doesn't prevent him from analyzing and judging a used product more than 20 years ago and a new product that has just been produced.

Although the export type is a simplified product on the basic type used by this [***] team. But more than 20 years is enough to make the electronic components in the fighter earth-shaking changes.

The representatives of the Ukrainian side looked a little embarrassed, and they also knew that the quoted price was too scary. But I didn't expect Hussein to have such a 'violent' reaction.

Isn't there a saying that it's good to ask for a high price and pay back the money on the ground? If you are not satisfied with the price, you can talk about it.

Kirichenko complained a little, but his face was still full of smiles and said, "General Hussein, you also know that the Su-27 fighters owned by our country are all models used by the former Soviet army, and they have not been simplified at all. There is no doubt about her surname. Even in the past 20 years, I can guarantee that these fighters are still one of the most advanced and powerful fighters in the world. Moreover, you should be clear that our political axe is preparing to carry out a series of reforms on air force weapons, and some old aircraft will be abolished. As an advanced fighter, the Su-27 fighter must be preserved. Therefore, China's air force will need these fighters to defend their territorial airspace for the next period of time. This time, it is also seen that the two countries have good cooperation experience, otherwise these Su-27 fighters, China's political axes will never be sold..."

Both sides express their own opinions, one is a bargain and the other is a bargain.

An hour has passed, and the two sides have not yet reached a negotiation. Although the price of the Ukrainian political axe will be reduced in the end, Su-27 and Su-27S are $25 million each, and the Su-27UB two-seat coach combat model is $33 million each, but Later Sain has known from the boss. Crane's weapons can be discounted, and of course he doesn't want to be a big deal. Although I want to ship those Su-27 back immediately, I also know that the funds are hard-won.

The first day of negotiations ended in a hurry. When he returned to his residence, Hussein also ran to Li Mo's room and scratched, saying that the Ukrainian political axe had no sincerity at all.

Li Mo smiled and persuaded Hussein back. He also knew the idea of the Ukrainian political axe. Although I have had a cooperation experience with Somalia, from the perspective of a country, the more profits I get, the better. Especially the rush of Somalia this time, first of all, it exposed the urgent need for these arms. Others naturally pinched it a little and raised the price. After all, Somalia may be a 'local rich man' in the eyes of Ukraine.

However, Li Mo also knows that the Ukrainian political axe will never be too cruel, because in the international arms trade, most of it is still the buyer's market. That is to say, the seller asks the buyer. Except for some arms trade due to political factors, this is the case. Especially this time, Somalia's political axe has taken out a large amount of arms and hundreds of millions of dollars of orders, which no country can ignore.

The next day's meeting was scheduled for the morning. Li Mo did not go this time, but handed over the heavy responsibility to Hussein. However, before leaving, Li Mo gave Hussein a bottom limit. If this limit is exceeded, the order will be invalidated, and the Somali political axe will look for the seller again.

After Hussein and his party left, Li Mo went downstairs with two bodyguards. Naturally, the security guards in the hotel also knew that after Li Mo just came out to meet a friend, they did not remind him, but stayed in the back not far away.

In a cafe not far from the hotel, Li Mo met the Ukrainian arms dealer Nazyrov. However, he did not see the 'owner' in Nazyrov's mouth. All he was waiting in the cafe was Nazyrov and his two bodyguards.

"Mr. Li, let me tell you that I'm afraid there are some changes in your procurement plan this time." Nazyrov, wearing a pair of sunglasses, leaned over his head and whispered after Li Mo sat down. That careful look is probably afraid of being exposed to the eyes of the Ukrainian security department.

"Oh? What's the reason?" Li Mo was shocked. He didn't get any news about it at all. Last night, he didn't see that the Ukrainian side was perfunctory.

Nazyrov grinned and whispered, "All I know is that the United States has put pressure on the political axe."

After saying that, give Li Mo a look you know.

Li Mo frowned. Before he came, he didn't think that the U.S. political axe would play tricks on arms purchases, which was also the reason why he went directly to Ukraine. In his opinion, Ukraine could cooperate with China later. In terms of foreign arms sales, it should not be affected by the United States, otherwise the United States would be against China. With vigilance and technical blockade, how can we sit back and watch Ukraine secretly provide some military technology to China?

"Does the political axe have a statement?" Li Mo asked. He is now a little worried about Hussein. If the Ukrainian political axe is really under pressure from the United States, I'm afraid it will perfunctorily delay Hussein. It may even dig a hole to let Hussein fall in.

Nazyrov shook his head slightly and whispered, "Not yet. It seems that there was a meeting last night to discuss it, and I don't know the exact result.

At this point, Nazyrov also felt strange. He knew very well who was the biggest boss behind him. As that person, he must know the attitude of the Ukrainian political axe, but before he came, he only received an order to disclose the news of the intervention of the United States to Li Mo, and did not tell him more inside stories. So Nazyrov didn't know either.

"Mr. Li, you know that the political axe's protection for you now... is relatively tight. Recently, China has been preparing for next year's general election. I think it's better not to see each other for the time being. So let me say sorry to you. Najirov suddenly said in a slobly. Originally, he proposed to meet others, but suddenly broke the contract. Everyone was very unhappy. Not to mention that the identity of the young man in front of him was unusual, if he was really angry, the consequences would be very serious.

"It's okay. I also want to thank you for your message." Li Mo shook his head and smiled, noting at all.

After the two separated, Li Mo hurried back to his residence and found that Hussein had not come back yet. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Just when Li Mowei should go to the place of the talks or send someone to remind Hussein, his men came in to report that Hussein came back.

"Come on, let the Chief of Staff in." Li Mo looked happy and said quickly.

Seeing Hussein coming in with a happy face, Li Mo was surprised. In his mind, Hussein should have come back with an angry face and scratched in prison.

"Boss, it worked... We have reached a procurement agreement with Ukraine!" As soon as Hussein came in, he said excitedly to Li Mo.

Li Mo resisted the doubts in his heart and asked Hussein to sit down before saying, "Tell me what's going on?"

Hussein opened his mouth and seemed to feel a little thirsty, so he picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table and poured a few mouthfuls.

"Boss, the Ukrainian political axe agreed to sell the Su-27 fighter to China, and the price did not exceed the bottom line you gave."

After Hussein's description, Li Mo had a general understanding of the morning talks. The representatives of the Ukrainian political axe participating in the talks today are the same as yesterday. At first, Hussein thought that it would be a lot of talkative today, but after a while, Hussein found that the tone of the Ukrainian representatives seemed to be much looser.

In the face of Hussein's bargaining, although the Ukrainian representatives refuted every time, Hussein still found that the other party's negative tone was not resolute. This made Hussein see that something was wrong, and the lion of Suo opened his mouth. The purchase price of the Su-27 and Su-27S fighters is directly 12 million US dollars, and the price of the Su 27UB is 15 million US dollars. Although this price is far higher than the unit price of only 5 million US dollars for two Su-27s purchased by the United States from Ukraine, it is no different from the price of cabbage for an advanced fighter that can take off and basically have a good surname.

Of course, the representatives of Ukrainian political axe certainly disagree. After a series of debates between the two sides, the price has finally reached a figure that both sides are basically satisfied with.

A Su-27 and Su-27S fighters are $14 million, and a Su-27UB two-seat coach combat model is $18 million. Hussein took 24 Su-27 fighters in one go, including 18 Su-27S air superior fighters and 6 two-seat coach fighters.
