Chapter 1314 Huge Profits From Aircraft Carrier Disposal!
Although the Varyag has not been fully built, the engineers sent from China were very satisfied after seeing it. Most importantly, in addition to not being damaged, Yang Ming also asked people to preserve all the relevant information.
If this aircraft carrier is towed back to the domestic ship and continued to be built, it will definitely become the first aircraft carrier in China.
Most importantly, this one is still very new and is also the most advanced aircraft carrier in the Soviet era.
As for the others, they are basically very old and far from the real European and American aircraft carriers. Now that they are so old, even if Yang Ming gives or sells them to China, China will not want them.
On the contrary, countries like India, India, Korea and other countries may be very interested.
Especially India, India, India, in history, actually bought one of them and transformed it back, and it became one of India's aircraft carriers.
But now all of them have been pulled back by Yang Ming.
A week later.
Yang Ming is in the villa in Repulse Bay.
I saw the old man in China, Mr. Jiang, and the important representatives sent by the military again.
"Mr. Yang, we want the Varyag. As for the other aircraft carriers, we also looked at them. They are much worse in all aspects. If we take them back, we can only dismantle them."
"This one is really good. It is also the most advanced aircraft carrier in the Soviet Union. It is still a little behind the most advanced aircraft carrier of the United States, but it is also very good in the world."
The two sides agreed.
Originally, Yang Ming was going to give it to China as a National Day gift.
The old man and Mr. Jiang felt that the Empire Group had spent so much money to bring it back to Hong Kong, so they naturally couldn't take it away without spending a penny.
In the end, China spent 15 million US dollars to buy this aircraft carrier.
However, China may have to pay back this money in installments over three years.
Although China is developing rapidly now and its fiscal revenue is increasing, money is needed in all aspects. The purchase of the aircraft carrier was not planned in advance by the fiscal department, and now it is considered an advance expenditure.
However, it is of great significance to China.
Most importantly, they know that they should thank Mr. Yang and the Empire Group.
If it weren't for Mr. Yang, it would take a long time for China to get the first aircraft carrier back for research.
The two sides signed an agreement.
This aircraft carrier was originally left at the dock near the Huangpu Dock Port, which looked very abrupt there. Many Hong Kong citizens went to see it and thought that the Empire Group was going to dismantle it.
However, that night, this aircraft carrier was quietly taken away from here.
Then it continued to head north.
At that time, this aircraft carrier will be towed to the Dalian Shipyard.
However, the outside world did not know.
This aircraft carrier was towed away that night.
However, there were still several other very old aircraft carriers waiting to be dismantled.
Even so, it still attracted the attention of many countries.
Among them, from Goryeo, Siam, India, and even Argentina in South America, Pakistan is more concerned.
Among them, Pakistan itself has an aircraft carrier, called the Sao Paulo, which was also purchased from the old aircraft carrier of the former F country, which came from the 1950s and 1960s, and it has been 30 or 40 years now.
Obviously, although these second-hand aircraft carriers of the Soviet Union are a bit old, some of them look newer than the São Paulo.
As for Goryeo, if I want to buy them back, I will study them carefully to see if I can imitate them, and then dismantle them.
In this regard, Goryeo is more ambitious. After its success in shipbuilding, it has always set its sights on other industries, such as arms.
Obviously, now that I know that the old aircraft carriers of the Soviet Union have fallen into the hands of the Empire Group and have been towed back to Hong Kong, I really want to buy one and study it carefully, and then dismantle it.
The "May 25th" aircraft carrier is the largest warship of the Argentine Navy. The aircraft carrier was originally a "Giant" class aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy of Country Y. It was purchased and modified by the Netherlands in 1948, and then sold to Argentina in October 1968. It began to serve in the Argentine Navy in February 1969.
Although the aircraft carrier has undergone three modernization modifications, its performance is still poor. The Argentine Navy originally planned to modernize it again in the late 1980s, but it was not carried out. Historically, the aircraft carrier was retired in 1993.
However, in the 1980s, after fighting with Country Y, Argentina lost miserably, especially in terms of the navy, and Argentina still needs these very much.
The remaining India, India, and Siam do not have aircraft carriers now.
Therefore, the Empire Group is really interested in buying these old Soviet aircraft carriers this time.
After Yang Ming sold the Varyag to China.
He heard the relevant person in charge mention to him that some countries are very interested in those old aircraft carriers now.
"Boss, do you want to sell those aircraft carriers?"
However, according to the meaning of Europe and the United States, they hope that the Empire Group will buy them back and dismantle them, not that they hope that the Empire Group will sell them to other countries again.
Now Yang Ming has also quietly sold the Varyag to China.
However, there are still a few left.
"What countries?"
When the other party mentioned it, Yang Ming couldn't help laughing when he heard that it was really these countries.
"On the basis of the profit from dismantling it, we will sell it to them at ten times the price if they are willing to buy it."
According to the current situation where dismantling an aircraft carrier can earn 30 million Hong Kong dollars, then 300 million Hong Kong dollars now means 40 million US dollars to sell it to them.
Yang Ming wanted to make a fortune from India, Korea, Argentina, and Pakistan.
As for Siam.
Although Yang Ming had cooperation with the Siamese royal family, he did not have cooperation with the Siamese military. If they wanted to buy, they had to buy at this price.
The other party was already clear.
As for these things, Yang Ming no longer cared about them.
For him, if he pulled it back now, dismantled it again, and reused the high-speed rail, cables, copper wires, etc. inside, he could actually make a lot of money.
However, not every company has the ability to dismantle it.
Therefore, Yang Ming bought it back in advance with the Soviet Union, Goose Country, and Ukraine.
For the next period of time.
Yang Ming did not care about the handling of the Soviet Union's second-hand old aircraft carriers.
Because there were relevant persons in charge to handle it.
Yang Ming did not expect that India and India actually spent a high price to buy one of the aircraft carriers. After spending 40 million US dollars to buy it, he paid for someone to tow this old aircraft carrier back to India.
Not long after, India announced to the world that it had its first aircraft carrier.
However, many countries knew that this was just a very old second-hand Soviet aircraft carrier purchased from the Empire Group at a high price.
On the contrary, although Goryeo was interested and wanted to buy it back for research, the Empire Group asked for too high a price and finally gave up.
As for Pakistan and Argentina, the economic crisis in the 1980s has not really recovered yet, so they are not willing to spend tens of millions of dollars to buy an old aircraft carrier.
And Siam sent people to negotiate for a long time, but finally gave up.
In other words, except for one sold to China and one sold to India, the remaining seven of the nine old Soviet aircraft carriers will all be dismantled.
