Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 715 Dassault’s Visit

Not long after Bao Zixuan arrived, he received a request for a visit from Dassault. This made Bao Shoufang a little confused. After all, he had no interaction with Dassault before, let alone business dealings. Having just arrived in Paris, what does Dassault want to do? But since someone has already given you a greeting, you can't remain indifferent. Not meeting him seems stingy and timid, and Heiyun Group cannot afford to lose this person.

Dassault is a French aircraft manufacturer and one of the world's major military aircraft manufacturers. It has the ability to independently develop military and civilian aircraft. The company has produced a total of more than 650 aircraft of various types since its inception. Dassault Aircraft Manufacturing Company has mainly focused on military aircraft for many years, such as the "Super Etendard" attack aircraft, the "Phantom" series of fighters and the "Rafale" fighter aircraft. In 1967, two major French military aircraft manufacturers, Dassault Aircraft Manufacturing Company and Breguet Aircraft Manufacturing Company, merged to form Dassault Aircraft Manufacturing Company. The company is a principal member of the Dassault Group.

In his previous life, Bao Zixuan often dealt with engineers from Dassault, after all, they were also one of Rolls-Royce's important customers. This company is more important than Airbus in the hearts of French people. It’s not just the difference between producing military aircraft and civilian aircraft. More importantly, Airbus belongs to the whole of Europe, and Dassault belongs entirely to France. One is his biological son, and the other is only slightly related to him at most.

After Bao Zixuan agreed to the meeting request of the French company Dassault, in less than 10 minutes, three cars with the logo of Dassault arrived at Hangar No. 13, where the Heiyun Group was located.

When the driver stopped the car, the person in the front quickly got out of the car and opened the door. An old man got out of the car. After seeing his appearance, Mr. Bao couldn't believe his eyes. Why did this legendary figure come to visit him? Today is not April Fool's Day.

Marcel Dassault, founder of the French Dassault aircraft manufacturing company, French aircraft designer, representative of the French aviation industry, synonymous with twice the speed of sound, tailless delta-wing fighter. Developed the "Hurricane" fighter-bomber, the "Mysterious" fighter, Europe's first "Super Mysterious" B2 fighter that exceeded the speed of sound in level flight, the "Etendard" and "Super Etendard" carrier-based attack aircraft, as well as the famous "Phantom" A series of fighter jets, a leader in the world's aviation industry, and definitely one of the pioneers of aviation.

Not daring to show off in front of this old man even though he was awesome, Bao Zixuan hurriedly stepped forward. Said in French: "Welcome Mr. Dassault, I would like to ask you to come and visit me in person. Don't do this next time. If you want to see me, just ask someone to talk to me in advance, otherwise it will be me Discourteous."

Bao Zixuan's attitude made the entourage of Dassault Company very satisfied. It seemed that Master Dassault was definitely this boy's idol. In fact, it is not surprising that Dassault staff think so. There are few people in the world who study aviation industry-related majors and can ignore Dassault masters.

Marcel Dassault looked at the young man in front of her who was younger than her grandson, but was filled with emotion. When I was as old as him, I was still studying wooden propeller airplanes. Now that people have developed stealth bombers, this is the gap. It’s true that a hero emerges from a young age, and I feel really old. This is one of the reasons why people's enthusiasm for work is not that strong when they reach a certain age.

This guy speaks very standard French, and you really can’t understand it if you don’t listen carefully. This made Marcel Dassault feel very friendly, at least there was no language barrier.

Marcel Dassault said with a smile: "This is Paris, France. After all, I can be considered the host. When guests come over, it is appropriate to take the initiative to visit. Besides, when people are old, they have to go out and move around frequently."

Anyone who knows the experience of Marcel Dassault knows that despite the amiable appearance of this old man. He has a very stubborn personality and is also a ruthless person. You must know that during World War II, Dassault refused to cooperate with Germany and was imprisoned in the Buchenwald concentration camp. He was not released until 1945, and immediately flew back to France after his release. And the aircraft company was immediately reorganized, which shows its work efficiency.

The Germans did not make this old man surrender even when they occupied France, and he also had a good relationship with De Gaulle. He is definitely a tough person, at least his national sentiments are no worse than anyone else.

Bao Zixuan: "I don't know what advice Mr. Dassault has when he comes to Heiyun Group. He doesn't just want to see me!"

Marcel Dassault was stunned by the sudden change of conversation. Why did this kid change so quickly? He had a junior mentality just now, and now he suddenly entered the negotiation stage. Dassault is also a man who works in science and engineering, and he has some understanding of the characteristics of men in science and engineering. There is nothing uncomfortable with him at this point. Going straight to the topic is also a manifestation of work efficiency.

In fact, Bao Zixuan knew that when Marcel Dassault came over, he must have something to discuss, or there was a project that he wanted to cooperate with. Otherwise, with his status, he would not condescend to come to the hangar where the Black Cloud Group is located. Everyone is not someone who has nothing to do.

In addition, Dassault has been tested for a long time and has never seen any scenes. Bao Zixuan knew that it was better for him to be straightforward, otherwise he would definitely be taken to the ditch. It's better to say it face to face like now.

Although Marcel Dassault is old, his mental reactions are not slow at all. You must know that one year before his death, he was still working on the front line and designing new aircraft, so his health could be so bad; now there are still several years before the old man passes away!

Marcel Dassault said with a smile: "Everyone says that Bao Zixuan of the Heiyun Group is impatient, and I saw it today. I came here to see you for something, mainly because I wanted to see what new aircraft the Heiyun Group has. I want to know that you But aircraft design geniuses have been hard to find for decades, and everyone is very curious about what surprises Heiyun Group will bring to the air show."

Bao Zixuan knew that things were not that simple. Although the successful development of the three-rotor engine had given Heiyun Group and himself a lot of praise, a single engine could not catch the eye of Dassault. This old boy must be here for the HH-01 Phantom stealth aircraft. The Iraqi Air Force's record is really too dazzling.

In fact, the aircraft really can't be hidden from Dassault. After all, France is their home field. It was clear what was going on, even though the HH-01 ghost plane landed at the French airport in the middle of the night. The sci-fi appearance still makes ground crews wonder, even though they see many new aircraft every year. But so far there is no such aircraft. I dare say it is more sci-fi than the Heiyun bomber.

Even though the Heiyun security team entered the venue early, the French did not take any photos. Moreover, the air show host committee also has requirements for the staff, at least not to let the photos leak before the aircraft is unveiled. There would be no mystery, which would certainly reduce the appeal to the audience.

The air show lasts for one week, and tickets will be sold on the fourth day. The general public can enter the venue. If all the planes see it in advance, who will buy tickets to watch it.

Mr. Bao knew it, even without a photo. With Dassault's status in France, it is certain that it can get a description of the aircraft's appearance from the airport staff. Moreover, he has to meet the public sooner or later, so it is okay to satisfy Dassault's curiosity, which can be regarded as a kind of respect for the master.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem, but I hope Dassault can keep it confidential. It is the first time for Heiyun Group to participate in an air show and they do not want to expose the product appearance design prematurely."

What Bao Zixuan said is very obvious, I can show it to you. I hope you won't say it out loud, as it also means restraining Dassault. Dassault needs to come forward to deal with the airport staff, otherwise they will leak the appearance of the aircraft. Because only people from Dassault Company have seen it, they can't rely on it even if they want to.

Whoever Marcel Dassault is, of course he understands what Bao Zixuan means. I glanced at this young man with interest and thought that this kid is really interesting. This is to make yourself take responsibility. Since you want to see the plane in advance, what is the responsibility of Dassault Company?

Marcel Dassault: "Dassault still has basic business principles, and it will also do some host affairs. The French Air Show has been held for many years, and it has been able to prosper for a long time. It has put a lot of effort into keeping customers confidential. , Dassault will remind you every year, please rest assured about this."

We are all smart people, and we don’t need to fully explain many things. The current state is very good, but if I continue to talk about it, it will hurt my temper.

In fact, the richest man Bao had already guessed what this old guy meant when Marcel Dassault arrived, so now he has just given up. At the same time, I was still thinking about selling the flight simulator to Dassault, which was the main product of Heiyun Group at the exhibition.
