Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 2006 Achieving the Goal 7

Since the French side has already shown enough sincerity, there is no need to hold back; that would make it appear that they are ignorant! But what benefits can be obtained from the French is a question worth thinking about!

When talking about industrial powers, many people always think of Germany, the United States and Japan; but they ignore the industrial strength of France. Perhaps in the eyes of the world, the French don't particularly like working, and their working hours are relatively short; but France is an extremely developed country, and its economic growth rate has always ranked among the top ten in the world.

France has strong machinery, automobiles, aircraft and electronics industries; it ranks among the best in the world in fields such as nuclear power, aviation, aerospace and railways!

Especially in the aerospace field, it can be called a unique existence; Dassault Group and Safran are existences that no aerospace practitioner can ignore. The two are also the most important technology providers for Airbus. Among them, Dassault's Solidwork and Catia software have great influence around the world. At the same time, France is one of the few countries in the world that can produce large jet engines. Safran's Snaye Kema engines are highly competitive in the aerospace field. The Atar engine produced in the early years was equipped with the famous Mirage III series of fighter aircraft. Since France has a dominant position in aero-engines, it has also made huge profits worldwide!

In the field of automobile industry, France owns Bugatti, PSA Group, Renault and other brands; among them, PSA Group is the second largest automobile manufacturer in Europe after Germany's Volkswagen!

Not only can the French manufacture cars, they also have the most advanced high-speed rail technology in the world; compared to Germany and Japan, it is not bad at all!

In addition, France also has a very good technology - nuclear energy control; 71% of France's total power generation comes from nuclear power, and it sells billions of dollars of electricity to neighboring countries every year; looking at the entire world, it is in a leading position!

In addition, France has certain monopoly advantages in LNG ships transporting liquefied natural gas, the steel industry, etc., so France's industrial strength may be stronger than people think. It’s just that in people’s inherent impression, the French drink coffee and read newspapers every day. Sometimes they work for a few hours if they want to. If they can’t think of anything, they throw parties and have a great time. They rest about 150 days a year. They are called the laziest country in the world. . It cannot be said that everything is an illusion, but being able to become a developed country and always be at the forefront of the world is definitely not as simple as it appears!

Now that the French are coming to their doorstep, they cannot let go of the opportunity. Once the French change their minds and want to take advantage of them, it will not be that easy!

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said: "As far as I know, the major shareholder of Safran Group is the French government. If possible, Heiyun Group is willing to take over! At the same time, extensive cooperation can also be carried out in the field of nuclear power."

As for the rest, it's not that Bao Zixuan doesn't like it, but it's just that he's not that urgent. Heiyun Group's own technical reserves are sufficient, and it does not need to be on one side; the most important thing is that it cannot want everything. The end result is likely to be nothing; just stop in moderation and don’t be too greedy!

Safran is a world-class manufacturer of aerospace engines and equipment. Its products are used in aircraft, helicopters, missiles, aerospace propulsors and equipment for the civilian and military markets. It designs, develops, produces, sells, and provides maintenance and overhaul services for aviation propulsion systems and equipment around the world.

It can be said that its status in France is not much worse than that of Dassault; it was just that because of the poor management of the founder's family, it had to be placed under government trusteeship after World War II! But no matter what, it is impossible to sell such a sharp weapon to foreigners.

It is related to France's national defense and security, and the French ambassador did not expect that Bao Zixuan's appetite would be so big.

Although Heiyun Aero Engine Company has developed rapidly, its foundation is obviously insufficient. According to the original plan, it was to wait until the Soviet Union collapsed and acquire some old aerospace design bureaus to make up for it. Now that the French take the initiative to deliver it to your door, you can make arrangements in advance.

If the other party can really give up such an important enterprise, then everything can be discussed. Suppose the Gallic Rooster refuses directly; then sorry, there is no need to negotiate!

As for the nuclear energy field, I have long wanted to get involved; there has never been a suitable opportunity. Building nuclear power plants through Saudi Arabia and Iraq is only the first step, and the Americans will definitely guard against it; it is not that easy to obtain technology.

The relationship with France is a cooperative relationship, and technology sharing is a prerequisite; if it were another partner, Gallic Rooster might still dare to hide it. But facing the Heiyun Group, I believe they don't have that strength. In recent years, Bao Zixuan has been recruiting talents from all over the world; among them are many authoritative experts in the field of nuclear energy.

It's just that some things shouldn't be too blatant and involve nuclear power; people all over the world will be nervous.

Therefore, it is very clear whether the technology is retained or not!

The French ambassador didn't even know how to respond. Although he came as a presidential envoy, he had not yet received authorization to sell such an important company as Safran.

Not to mention the presidential envoy, even Mitterrand himself did not dare to make a direct decision.

If Bao Zixuan is a pure French, it won't be a big problem; even if he is French, it can be discussed. But my current status is really inappropriate!

If you directly sell the most important domestic military industrial enterprises to foreigners, you will never be able to take off the label of traitor. Nuclear energy is a sensitive topic, and the Heiyun Group is already extremely large; even beyond people's imagination.

After acquiring nuclear energy-related technologies, there is no need to feel strange about developing an atomic bomb in the future. Then who can check and balance the young man in front of him in the future? The French Ambassador no longer dared to think about it.

Now people have already offered conditions, even after he proposed to borrow tens of billions of dollars; that is to say, as long as he agrees to the other party's request, Heiyun Group can dismantle tens of billions of dollars to the French officials.

Anyone else would definitely be skeptical; but no one knows how much money Bao Zixuan has made over the years except himself; it is too much.

In Japan alone, profits exceed 100 billion US dollars; it can be said that they do have that strength.

The French Ambassador thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Bao, regarding Safran Group and related cooperation in the field of nuclear energy, it has exceeded my authorization. I must report it to the country before I can give a reply. Please forgive me!"

Anyway, I am not in a hurry, I believe France will give a reply soon. Although it is a bit difficult, Safran Group has four major sectors; even if it cannot be acquired as a whole package, there is still hope for getting half of it!

After sending away the French ambassador, Bao Zixuan asked people to invite the second Iraqi son out again.

Some things should be explained clearly in person to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

After all, the conditions have just been put forward. If France agrees, follow-up plans must be started! If we reach an agreement with the French, other Arab countries will become passive in an instant.

They agreed to act together, but the result was that the alliance disintegrated due to their own reasons, but it was difficult to explain.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Do you think Gaul Rooster will agree to such excessive conditions?"

Hearing Bao Zixuan's question, the second young master was obviously taken aback; but he quickly came to his senses.

The richest man Bao directly offered the conditions, and he felt a little unhappy; if the French agreed, what would happen to Iraq? Dad never let go, he just wanted to make progress and retreat together.

As a result, Fujairah reached an agreement with the French, which was not only a prelude to the collapse of the alliance; it also made Dad think that he was unreliable and embarrassed in his big job.

Staying in Fujairah means always paying attention to and understanding Bao Zixuan's movements and thoughts; without any warning, he directly reached an agreement with the French in private. By then, Iraq will become very passive, and the result will definitely not be good!

The second son of Iraq thought for a moment and said: "Suppose the French make a compromise and agree to sell Safran Group; do they really want to spend money to support them?"

Seeing the serious look on the other party's face, Bao Zixuan certainly understood what he meant; he was probably worried that he had reached an agreement with the French in private and would not be able to explain it when he returned.

It's true that the eldest son was sent away, but he didn't die; I can't say that his position is particularly stable. If you work hard, dad thinks you are very capable; everything is easy to talk about. Once it is questioned, who can say for sure what will happen in the future!

Bao Zixuan: "The French will not agree at all, and even if they agree, they will bargain; given the strategic position of Safran Group, they will never sell it to foreign capital!"

"If the other party really agrees, they will build a separate helicopter production line in Iraq; in short, they will never let the allies suffer!"

If you get a helicopter production line, you won't suffer any loss no matter how you calculate it; if there's anything you're not satisfied with, the Second Young Master won't say anything.
