Chapter 253 The Dog Owners’ Delegation Boards the Aegis Missile DestroyerChapter 253 The Dog Owners’ Delegation Boards the Aegis Missile Destroyer
At the same time, Lin Chenran at the 704 Shipyard contacted Mr. Zhang from the Yan Kingdom Navy.

The moment the call was connected, Mr. Zhang’s anxious voice came from the other end of the receiver. He couldn’t wait to ask Lin Chenran about the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel region’s intention to purchase Aegis missile destroyers.

Lin Chenran calmly told Abdul everything he thought.

After hearing these words, Mr. Zhang was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

He frowned and said in a heavy tone, ”The Saudis in the Camel Region want to board our Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer for a close-up look?”

”Still want to see it undergo sea trials?”

“This is a really tricky question!”

Then, Mr. Zhang asked tentatively, ”Can’t we watch the Aegis missile destroyer being built at your 704 Shipyard?”

It can not only meet some of the needs of Saudi Arabia in the Camel area, but also will not affect the mission performance of the Aegis missile destroyer.

Lin Chenran shook his head helplessly and responded, ”Mr. Zhang, the Saudi members in the Camel Region don’t want to see the Aegis missile destroyer under construction. They only want to see the finished product.”

”If they only wanted to visit the warships under construction, I wouldn’t have to call you and would have arranged for them to go directly to our shipyard.”

To be honest, you can’t get any useful information from looking at warships being built.

If there is a finished product, you must see the finished product!
”Lin, I’m not sure if we can get the delegation from the Saudi country in the Camel region aboard the Linjiang-class Aegis missile destroyer. There are many secrets on the ship that cannot be exposed.”

After thinking for a moment, Mr. Zhang gave this answer.

”Mr. Zhang, if our navy really wants to make this deal a success, I’m afraid we’ll have to make some small sacrifices.” Lin Chenran said seriously.

Lin Chenran went on to explain: ”We have wrapped this Aegis missile destroyer so tightly. If we don’t let customers get on board to experience it, who would be willing to buy it?”

”Even people like Saudi Arabia, who are stupid and rich, won’t be easily fooled.”

After saying this, Lin Chenran spread his hands, expressing helplessness.

The Yan State Navy wants to successfully sell the Aegis missile destroyers and make huge profits from them.

I want to make money without doing anything.

There are not so many free lunches in the world.

There is no such thing as making a fortune without working for it.

Hearing this, Mr. Zhang couldn’t help but laugh and scold: ”Hey, you kid! You really speak bluntly!”

Lin Chenran shrugged and responded, ”Mr. Zhang, I am telling the truth!”

Zhang Lao sighed: ”I will try my best to promote this matter, but I can’t guarantee it.”

Then Mr. Zhang changed the subject and asked, ”How about the Xingchen light aircraft carrier?”

Last time, Lin Chenran submitted the design plan of the Xingchen light aircraft carrier to the senior leaders of the Yan State Navy, and requested to export it to the Saudi State in the Camel region.

The senior leaders of the Yan Kingdom Navy are very concerned about this matter.

If the Star light aircraft carrier can be successfully sold to the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel region, it will undoubtedly be a major milestone victory for the entire Yan Kingdom’s aircraft carrier manufacturing industry.

This not only means that Yan Country has taken a solid and powerful step in the international military trade market, but also fully demonstrates to the world Yan Country’s strong aircraft carrier manufacturing capabilities and technical level.

They can also show off their ”strong muscles” on the world stage.

Let all countries realize that Yan Country already has the ability to independently design, develop and build modern aircraft carriers.

”Mr. Zhang, the Saudi country in the Camel region has shown great interest in the Xingchen light aircraft carrier designed and developed by our 704 Shipyard.” Lin Chenran said excitedly.

”They haven’t expressed their intention to buy it yet, but through my interactions with the delegation members, I can clearly see a strong desire to own it from their eyes full of expectation and desire.” ”It’s obvious that they really want to get our Zvezda light aircraft carrier.”

Having said that, the corners of Lin Chenran’s mouth rose unconsciously, and a smile of joy that was difficult to conceal appeared on his face.

Then, Lin Chenran’s tone suddenly changed, becoming serious and earnest: ”Mr. Zhang, in my opinion, whether the delegation members of the Camel Region Saudi Arabia can be allowed to board the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer for a visit and inspection may be the key to whether this cooperation can be successfully achieved.”

If we don’t give some sweet treats to the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel region, how can they be easily fooled!
……

As soon as Mr. Zhang hung up the phone with Lin Chenran, he reported it immediately.

The senior leaders of the Navy attached great importance to this matter and immediately convened a meeting to discuss whether the Saudi Arabian forces in the Luotuo region could be allowed to board the Linjiang-class Aegis missile destroyer.

After an hour of discussion, the senior leaders of the Yan Navy agreed to the request.

In order to allow the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel region to become the ”guinea pig” for the construction of light aircraft carriers, the Yan Kingdom relaxed its restrictions on it and allowed the other party to board the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer for a close-up viewing and inspection.

If Saudi Arabia in the Camel region can afford the testing funds, they can also see the sea trials of the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer.

……

After receiving the notice, Lin Chenran immediately told Abdul and others the good news.

This is a rare opportunity.

After receiving the news from Lin Chenran, Abdul and others contacted the former again.

One day after the discussion, everyone boarded the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer on a Z-20 heavy helicopter.

……

Lin Chenran brought everyone secretly to a military base of the Yan Kingdom Navy.

At this time, a Z-20 heavy helicopter had been waiting on the apron for a long time.

Lin Chenran and others quickly boarded the Z-20 heavy helicopter and flew to the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer.

After an hour and a half of flying, Lin Chenran finally landed on the deck of the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer.

At this time, the members of the Saudi delegation in the Camel area looked around and kept looking at the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a colonel’s uniform came over with several naval officers.

And saluted Lin Chenran and others.

”General Manager Lin, and all distinguished guests, welcome aboard our Linjiang-class Aegis missile destroyer.”

”I am the captain of the Linjiang Aegis missile destroyer - Ouyang Jie.”

”Hello, Captain Ouyang!”

Lin Chenran greeted the other party with a smile.

Ouyang Jie said naturally: ”The commander has already informed me of your purpose. You can visit everything except weapons and equipment and some confidential cabins.”

“After the visit, we will prepare for the testing of various weapons and equipment at sea.”

Lin Chenran had previously told Abdul that they would need to bear the cost of testing various weapons.

The Saudi delegation in the Camel region readily agreed.
