Building a Technological Power Starting with the Type 59 missile and Going Astray in Technological Development

Chapter 61: Dog Tycoon: 25 billion US dollars reached a cooperationChapter 61: Dog Tycoon: 2.5 billion US dollars reached a cooperation
You know, in terms of armor defense, the Apocalypse tank is far ahead of the rest, and its performance far exceeds that of the Soviet Union’s T72 tank and the United States’ M1 tank.

What is even more surprising is that its main weapon is very likely to be a 125mm smoothbore gun, which will undoubtedly give it an even greater advantage.

The strength has been greatly improved.

Lin Chenran knew very well that the Saudi representatives in the Camel region would never let go of such an excellent tank easily.

Unless they are crazy, there is no way they would miss this opportunity.

”Yeah! I think so too.” Song Xiyun agreed, secretly relieved.

This second-generation main battle tank, the Apocalypse Tank, is the result of his painstaking efforts in designing and developing it.

In order to develop this tank, the 077 Mechanical Military Factory invested a lot of manpower and material resources.

Previously, the Yan State military failed to adopt the design and development plan of the Apocalypse tank, which made Song Xiyun feel disappointed.

Now he hopes to gain recognition from Saudi Arabia in the Camel region and generate revenue for the 077 Mechanical Military Factory.

”Then let’s wait for the results!” Lin Chenran said confidently, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

He firmly believed that good luck was about to come.

He is completely confident about his own Apocalypse tank.

……

At the same time, in another conference room, a group of representatives from Saudi Arabia in the Camel region were having a heated discussion.

”Cough cough cough!” Suddenly, a coughing sound broke out, interrupting everyone’s discussion.

In an instant, the heated discussion in the conference room came to an abrupt end. Everyone fell silent and focused their eyes on the source of the sound.

Abdul cleared his throat, looked around at the people around him, and asked in a calm and firm tone: ”What do you think of the Apocalypse Tank of the 077 Mechanical Arsenal?”

“Does it meet our needs?”

His question caused a silence, and everyone fell into thought.

At this time, Salman, as a military official in this incident, stood up and expressed his views.

”Your Excellency Abdul, for now, the Apocalypse tank of the 077 Mechanical Arsenal has some problems with its weapon system and power system. Overall, it is undoubtedly an excellent second-generation main battle tank.”

Salman’s words attracted the attention of everyone present, and they nodded in agreement.

”Moreover, the armor defense of the Apocalypse Tank is far ahead of all existing tanks on Blue Star. There is no doubt about that.”

”I think we can consider cooperating with them, but we also need to pay attention to the fact that the Apocalypse tank should be introduced into our country for production and manufacturing in the future.”

Salman continued, his expression serious and earnest.

Abdul nodded slightly to show his approval of Salman’s views and encouraged other representatives to express their opinions.

The entire conference room was filled with a tense and serious atmosphere, and everyone began to discuss in depth the feasibility and potential risks of this proposal.

Fifteen minutes later, the Saudi representatives in the Camel region reached a consensus, which was to cooperate with the 077 Mechanical Military Factory to jointly develop the Apocalypse tank.

At this moment, Abdul winked at the people around him, and one of the Saudi representatives from the Camel Region stood up, nodded, and walked out of the meeting room.

This representative will be responsible for notifying Lin Chenran and other personnel from the 077 Mechanical Arsenal to attend the meeting, as they have reached a conclusion on their discussion of relevant matters.

In another conference room, Lin Chenran and other senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Arsenal were waiting for news.

When they learned that representatives from the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel Region had come to ask them to go back to attend the meeting, everyone felt uneasy.

Especially the chief designer of the Apocalypse tank, Song Xiyun. However, unlike others, Lin Chenran was smiling, as if he had a clear idea of ​​what was going to happen next.

His calmness reassures those around him, but they can’t help but wonder why he is so confident.

Not long after, the team from the 077 Mechanical Arsenal, led by Lin Chenran, walked into the conference room and returned to their original seats.

As soon as he sat down, Lin Chenran couldn’t wait to ask Abdul: ”Abdul, my friend, I think you have made a decision, right?”

Lin Chenran carefully observed the facial expressions of the Saudi representatives in each camel area, and quickly captured important information from their eyes and micro-expressions.

The corners of his mouth lifted up involuntarily, and he thought to himself, ”It’s settled!”

Abdul looked at Lin Ran calmly and said seriously, ”Lin, my friend, after our discussion, we feel that your Apocalypse tank meets our needs very well.

””I hope to establish a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with your factory.”

Lin Ran’s mouth curled up slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he still remained calm and professional and replied: ”Of course, Abdul.”

When the senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory heard that Abdul wanted to cooperate with them, they all smiled brightly.

As the chief designer of the Apocalypse tank, Song Xiyun was so excited that his whole body was shaking.

The Apocalypse tank he designed and developed finally met its ”true love”.

……

As time passed, the atmosphere in the conference room became tense and heated, with discussions rising and falling one after another.

Finally, after two long hours, the Saudi side in the Camel region made a decision - they were willing to invest 250 million US dollars in the Apocalypse Tank project.

However, the US$250 million is not unconditional.

First, the Saudis in the Camel region demanded that the first batch of fifty Apocalypse tanks must be supplied to them first;

Secondly, the Apocalypse tank needs to complete various experiments and be put into use within two years;

Finally, the 077 Mechanical Military Factory also needs to help the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel area to establish a complete Apocalypse tank manufacturing production line.

These conditions are not very harsh for the 077 Mechanical Arsenal.

Relatively speaking, it is quite loose.

”Abdul, we have a pleasant cooperation.” Lin Chenran smiled and extended his right hand to Abdul, showing his friendship and sincerity.

Abdul also responded with a smile: ”Lin, it’s a pleasure to work with you!” He held Lin Chenran’s hand tightly, his eyes flashing with anticipation and excitement.

Then, the two parties formally signed a preliminary letter of intent, marking an important step in this cooperation.

As the signing ceremony ended, Lin Chenran wanted to keep the other party for a meal.

But Abdul refused: ”Lin, I need to go to the capital of Yan to discuss other cooperation.”

”I’m really sorry, I’ll save this meal for next time.”

Lin Chenran couldn’t force it.

His goal was achieved. He could not delay Abdul here and delay the deployment of the Yan State military.

Lin Chenran and a group of senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory warmly saw the other party off.

Abdul and other Saudi representatives from the Camel Region walked out of the building, got into the luxurious Rolls-Royce fleet that had been waiting outside, and left the 077 Mechanical Arsenal under the watchful eyes of Lin Chenran and others.
