Chapter 195 Despicable means

   When Zhao Ling and Gianna swam to the fifth lap, Lacour finally came back with excitement on his face.

   "Qin, the navy agrees that your design is the most reasonable, the price is the most suitable, and the potential for future upgrades is large enough, so..."

  When Lacour said this, he saw a trace of worry flashing across Qin Tao's face, and immediately became curious: "Qin, shouldn't you be happy?"

"I'm very worried." Qin Tao said: "During the bidding in the morning, the Spaniard's blueprint was almost the same as ours. The other party will probably do everything in order to win this bidding. Now, although we I have gained the upper hand, but the other party will still use various methods to pour dirty water on us, for some reason, I always have an ominous premonition in my heart."

Hearing what Qin Tao said, Lacourt also pondered for a while. Yes, what Qin Tao said is reasonable. Since the other party can steal the blueprint and then pour dirty water on Qin Tao and the others to try to get the order, Well, now that the order is about to fly, the other party will definitely come up with other ways to make trouble.

what to do?

   Lacour rolled his eyes, and then picked up the phone.

   "Immediately send out a group of people to keep an eye on the people of Bazin Company. If there is any situation, report it immediately. That's right, and monitor their phone calls."

   "Honey, we've had enough swimming, do you want to have something to eat?" Zhao Ling came up and looked at Qin Tao with a smile.

   "Okay, let's go back and change clothes first, Mr. Lacour, see you in the restaurant in twenty minutes."

   "Okay." Lacour nodded.

Listening to the pregnant Lacour, he took Gianna back to the room. Twenty minutes was enough for him to make out with Gianna. However, just after closing the door and before entering the foreplay, his phone rang It rang.

   "What?" When he picked up the phone, Lacour's face immediately changed.

   "They called AFP to expose the shady scene of our bidding? Damn, there is no shady scene, it is obvious that their plan is not suitable!" Lacourt said: "Have you cut off the phone?"

   After all, this is an international call, and they still have many ways.

  It was relieved to hear that the international calls had been cut off from the time the shady revelations began, and the person in charge of monitoring responded.

   Lacour stomped back and forth in the room, how could it be possible, how could the other party know that Zhao Ling bought a lot of things for Jaina? Send someone to follow? still…

  Thinking of this, Lacour looked at Jaina's handbag, then quickly rushed over, unzipped the handbag, and poured out all the contents.

   Crash, clatter!

  Jianna looked at Rakul's actions at a loss. Could it be that he was looking for a condom? Are you in such a hurry?

  However, when Lacour picked up one of the buttons, he asked Jaina, "Is this button yours?"

   Jaina shook her head.

   "Damn it!" Lacourt picked up the nail clippers inside, clamped the button, and with a click, the button broke, revealing the wires inside.

   This is actually a bug!

  Who put it?

  The answer is ready!

   Destroying the bug, Lacourt picked up the phone and quickly dialed a number.

"Your Excellency Naris, the Bazin Company used many disgraceful methods in this bidding. They set up bugs around me, and they also know some things about you. I hope you can find them out. Look around for bugs, yes, **** it, they want to bring this to AFP!"

   "Yes, yes, this practice has seriously disrupted our bidding order. I suggest that they be deported as spies immediately. In the future, we will never do business with them!"

No one likes that when bidding, the bidding party tries to obtain useful information through this kind of conspiracy. Splash dirty water.

  This method is too despicable and shameless!

  After hearing this, Naris, the military leader, was also completely furious. He dared to pour dirty water on himself, saying that he had charged a favor fee?

   Thunder must be used to expel them!

  Qin Tao and Zhao Ling sat in the dining room, waiting for Rakul and Jaina.

  Qin Tao looked at his watch for the third time. He agreed on 20 minutes, and half an hour has passed.

   "It seems that the durability of Lacour has increased." Qin Tao said with emotion.

   "Persistence?"

   "Yes." Qin Tao patted his palm: "Crack, crack, crack!"

  Zhao Ling suddenly realized something, her face flushed slightly: "You, why are there always so many bad things in your mind?"

   "Men are not bad, but women don't love them." Qin Tao said.

  Zhao Ling gave Qin Tao a white look.

   Just then, Jaina walked over alone.

   "Qin, Zhao, I'm sorry, he has something to do and can't come here."

   "Oh, then what do you want to eat? After eating, let Xiaoling go shopping with you?"

   "No, I'm going to stay here obediently recently, and I can't go anywhere."

  Zhao Ling was a little suspicious.

  That night, a shocking piece of news was broadcast on the TV in the hotel.

"During the bidding of my country's aircraft carrier, in order to obtain the order, the personnel of a certain company used many shady means. They plagiarized the design proposals of other bidders, and even tried to slander the fairness of the entire bidding process. In view of this situation, our country It is decided to deport the company's bidders from the country, and will no longer accept any bids from the company in the future!"

  Qin Tao and Zhao Ling couldn't understand the babbling Siamese. However, Zheng Ming and Liu Dawei were also sitting beside them. Zheng Ming translated it, and Zhao Ling showed a surprised expression.

   "They really plagiarized our design, it's too much!"

  Yang Dawei gave Zhao Ling a funny look, why, you still can't see, who is in charge of everything?

  Yang Dawei thought of the scene of Zheng Ming poking his vocal cords with a pen during the day and making calls at the phone booth on the street.

   President Qin is really amazing! This is the end of the competition. Now, the bidding will be sure, and there will be no more variables.

  President Qin must have planned all of this long ago!

With that similar design drawing, it will be difficult for the people of Bazin Company to argue with each other. The British at the bidding site will definitely make trouble. If they publicize this matter in Europe, Bazin Company will completely Become a clown.

  My side, I don’t know anything, my side is just bidding properly.

the next day.

   "Mr. Qin, after our careful consideration, your design plan best meets our needs. Now, I declare that our light aircraft carrier will be built by you!"

"I am very glad that you can accept our design, and we will definitely go all out, even if it delays the domestic navy's project, we will build your light aircraft carrier on time!" Qin Tao said: "Now, we will Let's discuss the details."

  After talking for two full days, Yang Dawei and Zheng Ming were both hoarse. Finally, a contract with a thickness of hundreds of pages was finalized.

   "After half a month, our military will have a grand visit abroad. We hope that the official signing of this contract can be held in your capital." In the end, Naris spoke.

  Although the contract has been fully finalized, the signing is not enough for Qin Tao, the boss of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group.

   You have to go to the capital of China, and you have to sign a guarantee with several big figures in the country, so that it is more secure.

   "Of course no problem." Qin Tao is very natural.

  What is the other party worried about? Is the warship delivered on schedule? Has your own navy also ordered one? Does Yak-141 have a play? These things, Qin Tao has already said hello, and those in the navy will not make things difficult for him.

   After all, this matter is also beneficial to the navy. When it builds this aircraft carrier, the navy will definitely send more personnel to observe it. Even if it is just a light aircraft carrier, it has very important reference significance.

  Navy can't wait for it.

  Walking out of the building and watching the sunset slowly, Qin Tao said: "The task has been successfully completed. Since we are here, we must relax. Tomorrow, we will go to Phuket."

  As a time traveler who came from later generations, Qin Tao does not have the spirit of his father. This is the generation gap. He will not be busy with work all the time. After the busy work is over, he also needs to relax.

  Siam in the 1990s has vigorously developed its tourism industry. Phuket Island is the number one holy place for tourism in Siam. Of course, we must go and see it.

  Zheng Ming is a little embarrassed, is it appropriate for us to travel with public funds? Will I be punished if I go back? However, before Zheng Ming could say anything, Qin Tao's big brother rang.

   "Hey, what? The Americans are here again?" Qin Tao was a little helpless: "Okay, then I will return tonight."

   "American?" Zheng Ming was curious.

   "It's probably because of the gantry crane." Yang Dawei said, "President Qin is cheating people... He really has a way of doing business with foreigners."

"Oh, really, when I get married and have my honeymoon in the future, I must turn off my big brother, and no one will find me." Qin Tao looked at the bricks in his hand, still annoyed that he didn't have the opportunity to go to Jeep Island for vacation .

  Zhao Ling's face was a little red, of course she had already guessed what Qin Tao's real purpose was when he went there for vacation.

  Mingzhou Shipyard.

  Both Williams and Jims are here. They are sitting in the open space of the shipyard, looking at the ships under construction in the distance and the berth under construction nearby, feeling uncomfortable.

   "You two, why are you sitting here, don't you go in?" Just then, a familiar and long-awaited voice came.

   "President Qin, you are finally back." Williams said: "President Qin, I heard that you have completed the bidding for an aircraft carrier in Siam and won another big business worth hundreds of millions. Congratulations."

"Yeah, it's a big business worth hundreds of millions. However, what we want to build is an aircraft carrier. The cost of hundreds of millions is just hard-earned money. By the way, when do you plan to bring the gantry cranes to us? If we delay The consequences of building an aircraft carrier are not something you can afford."

"President Qin, we have already borrowed five million yuan, please continue to allocate funds to us, otherwise, our project will have to continue to stop, we have borrowed a lot of usury, once the time delays, then we I can't even pay the interest!"

  Jims was so nervous. Originally, he thought that with more than one million yuan, he could properly dismantle the gantry crane. Now? After the two million down payment was spent, he and Williams went around borrowing money, back and forth, five million was thrown in, and the result?

   It is still the last step, but if you want to borrow money again, there is nowhere.

"Yes, Mr. Qin, please give us at least two million more, so that we can dismantle the suspension of the dragon gate." Williams said on the other side: "Otherwise, we will have to file for bankruptcy. The two million you invested in will not be able to get back."

  My 2 million was in vain, don’t feel bad, you all borrowed 5 million, even if you file for bankruptcy, you can’t be an old man, the rest of your life, tsk tsk, it’s hard.

  Qin Tao looked at the two with great interest. He originally planned to continue to delay, but anyway, the other party had already been tricked.

   "Boss Qin, I know that you are going to build a light aircraft carrier, so we have some good things for you." It seemed that he knew that Qin Tao was not so easy to talk about, so Jims quickly added another sentence.

   "Good thing? What good thing?" Qin Tao was a little curious.

  Williams took out a metal-cased radio from his briefcase.

   "Radio? Is this thing too outdated?"

  Qin Tao is a little dissatisfied, are you going to use this thing to fool me?

  Jims picked up the screwdriver, quickly unscrewed the top screw, opened the back cover, and then, he could see a rectangular thing inside.

   "Is this... hard drive?"

  In 1956, IBM invented the world's first hard drive, 350RAMAC. This hard drive has 50 24-inch platters with a capacity of only 5MB. It is as big as two refrigerators and weighs more than one ton.

  By the 1960s and 1970s, 14-inch hard drives began to be used in large numbers, and they were like a microwave oven.

   Until 1973, IBM launched the "Winchester" hard drive: IBM3340. This kind of hard disk is coated with magnetic material on the platter, and several platters are installed on the same shaft. This makes the volume of the hard disk decrease rapidly.

  By the 1980s, 5.25-inch hard drives were widely used, and 3.5-inch hard drives, which were used in later generations, also began to appear gradually.

   The hard drive in front of him was produced by the later bankrupt JTS company. It is 5.25 inches and has a capacity of 800 MB. At this time, Qin Tao was also a little surprised when he saw this hard drive.

  Are these two people going to be commercial spies? They really went all out. If they were discovered when they left the customs in the United States, the two of them would probably have to go in, and they might even eat peanuts.

  However, the two of them are smart enough to hide in the radio with a metal casing, and they will not be found when passing through the security check.

   What's in here? Qin Tao was very curious.

   "The design drawing of the sea-building ship." Williams said, anyway, there will be no people from the CIA or the FBI here, so he will not worry about being heard and causing trouble.

   What is stored here are actually the design drawings of the US Navy's sea-building ships?

  Qin Tao was a little surprised. This kind of sea-building ship was completely abandoned by the Americans in the 1980s. It was useless anyway, so it was used by other allies.

In fact, the design of warships is still very mature. After all, the Americans gave up building warships not because of such warships, but because of carrier-based aircraft and political factors. The power is drawn out and blows downward through the louvers on the wings, which is quite tall. However, because of too much power loss, this kind of aircraft has been hung by ropes for experiments, and it cannot take off and land vertically at all.

   Coupled with the opposition of arms dealers, this kind of sea-making ship eventually disappeared.

  Although Qin Tao designed the aircraft carrier based on his own experience, it would be even better if he matched the blueprints of these sea-building ships for optimization.

   After all, this kind of design drawing is more mature.

However, although he knew these benefits in his heart, Qin Tao couldn't say them out. His face was full of dissatisfaction: "What? Shipbuilding? It is obviously something that your navy has eliminated, and now you still want to give it to us? You don't want to lead us astray, do you?"

  The faces of Williams and Jims turned ugly instantly. At first, they thought Qin Tao would be very surprised. This thing is a big gift, a gift heavy enough for Qin Tao to give them a sum of money. Now? Qin Tao is actually dissatisfied?

   "Our design has already been optimized, there is no need for this thing at all." Qin Tao said.

  The hearts of the two have fallen to the bottom, and the other party doesn't like it? Will the other party continue to be stubborn?

"However, for the sake of your sincerity." Qin Tao changed his words: "I will reluctantly accept it. In terms of appropriation, I originally resolutely carried out according to our contract. Now, I can give you another appropriation. One million, nothing more."

   One million, one million is not enough!

  Williams and Jims are both very uncomfortable. They have calculated that they still need two million yuan. Will the investment of this million be in vain?

   "I heard that you borrowed a lot of money?"

   "Yes, we are already heavily in debt." The two nodded quickly.

"In this case, you might as well talk to those creditors." Qin Tao said: "If the project fails now, those creditors will not get anything, and now it is the last time to tremble. I will give you one million, and you go Find a creditor to borrow some money, and after it is demolished, you will have money."

   "Could you pay us more when it's taken down?"

   "Of course not, I can only pay another one million. After shipping, I can pay you another two million. You have to work hard, I am here to cheer for you!"

   What's the use of verbal cheering, what we need is money!

  Five million foreign debts, wait until the end of this project, their ending...

   Both Williams and Jims were full of sadness.

   Half a month later.

  Florida, on a certain river.

On the river more than 200 meters wide, the huge landscape on the horizon disappeared, and all became parts. More than 7,000 tons of workpieces filled the entire river bank. At this time, sitting on one of the cut beams , Jims looked at the river, tears streaming down his face.

   "It's finally taken apart." Williams said aside.

"Yes, it was finally disassembled. We spent more than 8 million yuan to disassemble it. Fortunately, we have gained a lot of experience during the disassembly, so it will not be difficult to install. Woohoo." Jims' words choked up.

   "Yeah, it's finally taken apart." Williams murmured: "But our project is seriously over budget, if we continue like this, we will lose our pants, so we have to find a way."

   "What way?" For some reason, Jims had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"All the debts belong to our heavy lifting company, so this company is going to go through the bankruptcy process. Of course, all the workers will continue to work. After all, they are still responsible for the installation. We can set up a new The hoisting company will be responsible.”

  They borrowed five or six million yuan in debt. If they want to make money, they have to pay off the debt, so the heavy lifting company has to go bankrupt.

   Bankruptcy?

  Jim instantly realized: "No, Williams, you can't do this. I will live in the shadow of debt collectors for the rest of my life!"

Although Williams helped him a lot, when he borrowed money, he borrowed money in the name of the heavy lifting company. Therefore, going through the bankruptcy process will not affect Williams, but it will affect Jims ah!

"At the beginning, you said that you could disassemble it for 1 million yuan, but now it is your responsibility to seriously overspend." Williams said: "If you can estimate that it will cost 8 million yuan to disassemble, then we will not sign the contract at all. !"

   "All of this is your responsibility!" Williams said loudly: "If it weren't for you, this would not be the case now, so, this responsibility must be carried by you!"

  Jims was dumbfounded. Looking at the slowly flowing river, he suddenly felt that jumping into the river and drowning now seemed like a good idea.

"As long as we pay off this debt, our business will still be profitable." Williams did not completely kill his good friend, he continued: "At that time, we will still be profitable, Jims, I can give you A bank card in my name, you can live with this money, we have to do it, we have to do it.”

   Woohoo!

  Jims, a big man, fell into Williams' arms, crying loudly.

   Miserable, so miserable, how could this happen? My baby is suffering!

   Of course Jims would not know, and when he took on this responsibility, Williams immediately ruthlessly abandoned him. The profit is only a few million, how can it be distributed to Jims?

   Everything is caused by Jims!

  The sun was setting, and the golden sunlight shone on the river, stretching the shadows of the two people very long, very long, and the rolling river was still flowing.
