The Canadian, who was shown off, had to follow the convoy as he pleasedly lead the convoy and lead the way in front. He soon led Mawei to their Ministry of Defense building.

Speaking of Canada's Ministry of Defense's buildings, overall, are not grand or old, and are quite standard. Their annual military expenditure accounts for only 1.2% of the national GDP. In such a large country, the number of naval personnel does not exceed 10,000. To put it bluntly, even the Malaysian Navy cannot defeat it.

After all, Malaysia ordered 28 new frigates from Russia. The combat power went straight to it.

Ten minutes later, when Mavie entered the Canadian Ministry of Defense and came to the conference hall. At this time, he saw that there were representatives of several countries sitting in the conference hall, such as the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Italy, Japan, etc.

From the expression, we can see that these countries are very concerned about Canada's international bidding. After all, no country is unhappy with a super order of more than 18 billion US dollars.

With the emergence of Mavie, some representatives from various countries who were nervously preparing showed a look of vigilance. The mall is like a battlefield, and it is not careless at all. Everyone here is opponents. You either you beat me or I beat you, and there is no mercy to tell.

Mavi looked at the vigilant eyes of everyone, and it was almost obvious from these eyes that which countries were destined to be eliminated. For example, European countries such as Britain, France, and Italy had a little fearless expression. They have always maintained good relations with Canada. Although they cannot be said to be determined, the possibility is also very high.

As for Japan, South Korea and other countries, they are just making soybeans. No matter how hard they try, they will give preferential plans. Maybe in the end, they will all appear on the list of unselected ones.

Mawei sat in the venue without caring about the eyes of others. To be honest, Mawei did not have the method to win this huge order. He came here to participate, or to travel to Canada.

Five minutes later, the international tender officially began. The person in charge of the bidding ceremony was the Canadian Minister of Defense, Jackson. He first expressed his sincere gratitude for so many countries participating in the bidding. Then he talked about some of the contents of the project in a cliché.

"I won't talk about more introductions here. When the bidding project was announced, it was listed in detail. I would like to hear from representatives of all parties. For our Royal Canadian Navy, what good solutions can this tender be provided?" Secretary of Defense, Jackson, asked on the stage.

The plan he asked was just a preliminary plan provided by various countries so that they could refer to it for reference by the Canadian Ministry of Defense. This can be said to be a preliminary impression of each country, and is generally very important.

When I heard about the proposal, I saw that some representatives of some countries in the field, such as Japan, South Korea, India, the Netherlands, etc., were all working hard to show off in the next stage.

First of all, the representative of the Japanese shipyard, a short middle-aged man in a gray suit. He said in the hall in English that was not standard and had an accent, "Dear Minister Jackson, I am from the Aichi Shipyard in Japan... Here I would like to introduce to your country our plan... It can save nearly 6 billion yuan of expenditures for your country while ensuring quality. The total amount of the project is expected to be around 23.9 billion US dollars."

The Japanese captain representative gave a full 15-minute introduction in the hall. The general advantages can be summarized as saving money without affecting the quality of order completion. The price war is fought, which is also what they are good at in Japan.

Canadian Secretary of Defense, Jackson, nodded in interest after hearing this. Judging from his expression and reaction, he seemed to be very satisfied with the plan of Japan's Aichi Shipyard.

At this time, the representatives of the Korean shipyard and the Indian shipyard below the stage were a little panicked and felt uneasy. The plans they came up with were similar to those of Japan, and they all started from the price aspect based on meeting the conditions, so that they could have more advantages.

However, South Korean shipyards and Indian shipyards cannot save 6 billion yuan in expenditures. The total amount of the project is 26 billion and 26.5 billion yuan respectively.

Mawei calmly saw the expressions of representatives of various countries and the ministers of national defense. For those who have experienced it, the momentum of these things was just a huge farce. Even if the Japanese shipyards reduced the quotation to 20 billion, or even lower, the bidding was always the winners of those countries.

The Canadian Minister of Defense was also cooperating with the performance, and he had already known what the superior meant.

When the representative of the Japanese shipyard and finished his country's plan, he immediately published the representative of the French shipyard, "Minister Jackson, here, I am honored to introduce to your country the latest horizon-class frigate that was established by our French Navy. Its full load displacement is 7956 tons, its length is 168.87 meters, its side width is 23.3 meters, and its draft is 6.1 meters... This frigate we developed by France is very suitable for your country's bid. Including other ships... Our French quotation is 29.5 billion US dollars."

The latest horizon-class frigate developed by France was originally finalized in March 2004. However, because not long ago, the joint French and South Korean fleets ate turtles in the Far East, it had a great impact on the reputation of the French navy. So they had to speed up the process.

After hearing the quote from the French shipyard, the Japanese captain representative couldn't help but show a hint of worry. The quotation for US$29.5 billion is a full 5.6 billion more than them. If the Canadian Ministry of Defense is a little brainy, according to common sense, it would be very likely to choose them to cooperate with Japan.

He also estimated that the European countries should be similar to France, and the prices would not be very low, at least above US$27 billion.

Similar to what he expected, the next British shipyards, Italian shipyards and Dutch shipyards raised project quotations to 31.5 billion, 28.9 billion, and 29 billion... And judging from the meaning of his words, it seems that there is not much room for a reduction in this quotation.

Seeing this situation, the happiest thing on the field was the representative of the Japanese shipyard. They were very confident about winning the Canadian order this time. They even couldn't wait to share this good news back to China.

At present, most countries have finished their preliminary plans. The only remaining representatives of Russia on the field are the most threatening and competitive. Therefore, representatives of shipyards such as Japan, South Korea, India, and the Netherlands have all focused their attention on a Russian young man.
