Chapter 319: Emerging Products

Japan time, January 6, night, Miyamoto's house in Mihua Town.

As soon as Mei Daizi came up from Mei Dai Restaurant, she made a private call to American Belinda Harold and told her her thoughts. Then he said to Miko Miyamoto: "Mom, Sister Belinda is looking for you."

"Press speakerphone." Miko Miyamoto said.

Belinda asked, "Miko, I want to ask something?"

"What?" Miko Miyamoto asked, "Would it be another company you want to annex?"

"Nowadays many military enterprises are undergoing transformation, such as General Power Company, General Electric Company, General Motors Company, Texas Electronics Company, etc.," Belinda said, "Now is a great opportunity, and their military industry department is very good. "

"The development of Huoxiu Group has now come to an end. In terms of launch vehicles, there are currently seven series of launch vehicles. The Athena series is in the hands of Lord Company, the Pegasus and Taurus series are in the hands of Sky Orbit Company, and the Conis series is still in the hands of the company. In the experiment, the Yutianshen series is shared by us and General Dynamics, and the Julishen and Delta series are in our hands. In terms of missiles, the Phoenix long-range air-to-air missile, the calf short-range air-to-ground missile, Harpoon anti-ship missiles, Tortoise anti-tank missiles, Tomahawk cruise missiles, Prison Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles, and Longbow Hellfire missiles authorized by Lord Corporation. In terms of fire control radar systems, in addition to the newly released The Raptor stealth fighter's fire control radar system is from Texas Electronics, the main fighters such as the Panda multi-role fighter, the Warhawk heavy fighter, the Fighting Falcon multi-role fighter, the Hornet multi-role fighter, the Longbow attack helicopter, etc. By the way, there is also the Ghost strategy Bombers, these use the fire control radar system produced by companies under the Huoxiu Group. If the Raptor stealth fighter came out, I would not dare to let you buy McGonagall and other companies." Miko Miyamoto said, "Huoxiu The group does not have ground weapons such as tanks, nor is it particularly good at light weapons, but these things can be done slowly, and there is no need to test the bottom line of the US Department of Justice in order to buy these things. The aerospace industry is not counted, this is a must. Zhongli’s industry, and other industries. Look at the current military industry in the United States that spans the sea, land, and air, and simultaneously produces the main products needed by the three armed forces. General Dynamics did not acquire Bath Iron and Steel Company. Did you sell the production line of the Fighting Falcon multirole fighter to Lord Corporation?"

"Well, not really." Belinda said, "But listen to me, thanks to the Gulf War, Wren's Patriot medium-range surface-to-air missiles are selling well, and Wren is now going to sell these companies' The defense department has scanned it all, and there are a lot of good things from these old companies, so we also bought some back in pieces, such as the patents of Texas Electronics, which produces the Raptor stealth fighter’s fire control radar system.”

Miyamoto Miko asked with a smile: "What use is that for us?"

"How can it be useless?" Belinda said, "In this way, we can immediately produce that kind of active phased array radar in an open and aboveboard manner. It is a big deal to upgrade those fighter jets."

"If those fighter jets are equipped with this kind of radar, how can we make money." Miko Miyamoto said.

Belinda asked, "So what do you think?"

"I bet that the Raptor stealth fighter equipped with an active phased array radar will be locked at home by the Americans just like the Phantom strategic bomber after it is built. With its high cost and high price, you say the U.S. military How much can you buy? One hundred or two hundred?" Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "It will be good if you don't lose money in the end."

"It seems good for you to say that," Belinda said, "but what about the future? The price will definitely come down in the future,

It is very possible to sell one or two thousand at that time. "

Miyamoto Miko said with a smile: "Then squeeze out its market share before that."

"Oh, that's a good idea," Belinda asked. "What are you going to do?"

Miyamoto Miko asked: "Do you know why I told you not to keep the fighter jet in your hand?"

"You said before that the most profitable future fighters are the fuselage, fire control radar system, coating, etc. Those fighters are basically sold out, and the profit of the fuselage is already very small, so we only make them That’s enough for the radar system business.” Belinda said, “Also, the War Lion fighter series will be a competitor of the War Eagle fighter, the Fighting Falcon fighter and the Hornet fighter for a long time, competing with itself, which is a bit It's not easy to handle."

"Not only that," Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "Also, those planes are not produced by us, staying in the Huoxiu Group will only make those original employees think of their original company, and now they see these fighter jets outside When Da Zhan stretched out his hand, the first thing he would think was 'that is sold by our Huoxiu Group'. If he argued with people from other companies, he could also say 'this is why our Huoxiu Group sold these fighters because he didn't like these fighters'. 'Your fighter jets are not because of the radar of our Horsho Group' and so on."

"I understand that if the fighters we produce are not inferior to those fighters, then the backs of the employees will be straighter and the cohesion will be stronger." Belinda asked, "However, why compare the Warhawk fighters with the large ones?" Wasp fighter jets, and Lancer bombers, sold to Sonic and Lord, which have a mediocre relationship with us, respectively, and sold Tomcat fighters to Knopp, which has a good relationship with us?"

"You also said that the relationship is mediocre, so you have to give a heavy gift, and there are very complicated calculations in it, and there are many issues to consider, not only on the table, but also the consortium behind them. Let me briefly say something, First of all, the Warhawk fighter jets and Hornet fighter jets are in a competitive relationship with the War Lion fighter jets. If they are sold to Knopp, even if the relationship is good now, it will inevitably lead to a decline in the relationship between Knopp and us in the future. This approach is not advisable. The following is the selection of buyers. A series of conditions have been combined. There are two buyers, Lord and Sonic. The former has Raptor fighters, and Warhawk fighters and Hornet fighters are just supplements to it. It is a great gift for it. In the same way, the Lancer bomber is a necessary supplement to Lord Corporation. Also, the Raptor fighter was developed to replace the Warhawk fighter, so how can their relationship be good in the future As for the sale of the Tomcat fighter to Knopp, it is because it does not affect our relationship, because now Knopp is co-owning the Super Hornet fighter that replaces the Tomcat fighter, and its own stuff replaces its own There will be no problems psychologically." Miko Miyamoto smiled, "In fact, to a certain extent, this itself is an agreement in advance to clear up the aircraft manufacturing companies that are not strong enough to form a monopoly situation. , This is a kind of tacit understanding, but now we are the ones doing it."

"So that's it." Belinda smiled, "I found that listening to your explanation is more clear than listening to those experts' explanations." Then asked, "What do you mean now, because the Raptor fighter may not be taken out, nor can it be popularized?" Large-scale procurement, so think about putting out a model to grab territory, occupy the low-end market first, and help employees support by the way, so, which one?"

"What do you think?" Miko Miyamoto smiled, "I'm far away from here, so I can't feel the atmosphere of the mainstream arms market."

"I can think of any one, the stealth multi-purpose carrier-based aircraft series converted from the Avenger II, or the multi-purpose stealth fighter converted from the black gun fighter." Belinda laughed, "I understand now , you knew early on that an excellent heavy fighter was a loser in a short period of time, so it was not developed.”

"You flatter me too much." Miko Miyamoto smiled, "You know, these things are transformed from failed products, and these things themselves cannot be transformed into heavy fighters." The stealth multi-purpose carrier-based aircraft series converted from the Avenger II is ready. I remember that it also has a stealth unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, right? These things are just what the Americans need. Release them early to grab territory and wait until others When a new product is released, we will upgrade it until it needs to be replaced. This must be learned from General Dynamics. Thousands of Fighting Falcon multi-purpose fighters have been sold. Before a certain time, the country will not Those who want to retire them have too much to lose."

"I like this idea," Belinda said with a smile. "The dedicated stealth carrier-based aircraft is still blank, and it will definitely sell for a good figure. And it can also complement the Super Hornet fighter to a certain extent."

"This series of aircraft should not be equipped with an active phased array radar system. We will start selling the low-level ones and proceed step by step. In this way, we can charge more money." Miko Miyamoto said.

"Of course." Belinda laughed, and then asked, "What about the other multi-purpose stealth fighter converted from the Black Spider fighter?"

"Wait a few years," Miko Miyamoto said, "When the Raptor stealth fighter has been in service for a year, then ours is equipped with an active phased array radar, and it is also a stealth aircraft, but its performance is not as cutting-edge as the Raptor fighter. , it can be sold as its wholesale version.”

"And the radar system?" Belinda asked.

Miko Miyamoto said: "We will upgrade our multi-purpose stealth fighters after they have sold a batch. It will be about three years later. Otherwise, our aircraft will not be easy to sell if those aircrafts are upgraded. However, it depends on the situation." You can upgrade the radar system of the Panda Fighter of Knopp Company first, and the specific time is before the Super Hornet fighter is mass-produced."

"Let's say six months from now. At that time, the Hornet fighter jets will be ready for energy production." Belinda asked, "What about ours? Will it be delivered tomorrow?"

"It's up to you. Just one fight, one by one." Miko Miyamoto said.

"I understand that." Belinda asked, "Then this opportunity to buy the military industry department is just given up?"

"If you are really itchy and want to buy some, go buy one or two missile production lines, not more than three," Miyamoto Miko said. "Okay, that's it."

"Okay, I see." Belinda said, "Good night, everyone."  …
