However, the problem of face is really not a problem in the face of financial problems that are about to make ends meet. After all, France was defeated. Although Germany has done its best to forgive France, France's economic situation is still very serious. It can be predicted that in the near future, both the state and the private sector will not have a large demand for aircraft. Therefore, in order to survive, Air France can only develop external markets. Therefore, with the acquiesce of the government, French companies rushed to decide to join the war, and the German aviation industry's first large-scale bidding!

Farman and Breguet first said they would participate in the bidding and immediately sent people to Munich. Then, the French state-owned airlines led by Southwest Airlines also expressed their willingness to join. According to the ideas of these companies, even if the aircraft designs they participated in the bidding were not selected, they could see if they could get a share of the aircraft production process. After all, the war has ended, and the scale of the aviation industry has generally shrunk. Even the aircraft manufacturers that won the bid must consider the cost issue. In order to obtain hard currency, the French government can subsidize export companies. In this case, the French aviation industry can even consider the entry and exit, without making a penny, and then rely on export tax rebates or subsidies to survive!

Some people may say that this behavior undermines trade fairness. In fact, both the Prussian government and Bavaria provide subsidies for the domestic aviation industry in Germany. Everyone knows that the development of the aviation industry is necessary. Even if the government loses money now, these industries must continue to develop. The minimum requirement is not to starve to death! So everyone knows these open and secret matters and does not explain them.

However, this preferential treatment is only for large domestic airlines or state-owned airlines, and definitely does not include Marcel Brocher! There is no way, his company started to produce propellers. Although the technical content is considered good, it is just a subcontractor for components. Although the Sae Airlines he later established later came up with a very good fighter design and also received military orders, with the technology of the war, the Sae company, which delivered less than 150 aircraft, was immediately faced with the risk of bankruptcy. No, it is no longer a danger, but has become a reality... and for such a super-small aircraft manufacturer, the French government naturally would not feel at ease.

So, when a letter from the Bavarian Airlines Tendering Office was delivered to Marcel Brochel, his mood could be described as amused and inexplicable. On the one hand, he was happy that he could actually obtain this letter. After all, in addition to economic benefits, it also means a certainty. You must know that Bavaria is the highest representative of the world's aviation industry now, no doubt! After the British aviation industry collapsed with the failure of the war, the engines and aircraft produced by the Bavarian Airlines Agency and aircraft manufacturers represented the highest level of aviation in this era! To receive their letters, Marcel was undoubtedly a affirmation of his technology.

But unfortunately, this letter was too late. His factory was insolvent. Not to mention the funds for continuing to develop aircraft, he could not afford the wages, rent and water and electricity bills of the workers. To put it bluntly, his sea aircraft manufacturer has reached the last moment, only one step away from closing the door. The gap in this step is the hurdle in Marcel Broche's heart. He really doesn't want to give up the aviation industry that he has fought for for so many years. That is his ideal, belief and life!

"I am very grateful for your invitation. I am very willing to study and discuss this aviation technology feast, but unfortunately, my financial situation does not allow me to do this." In the end, Marcel Brocht wrote in embarrassment. Of course, in addition to financial issues and business issues, Marcel was still a little resentful of France's failure in the war. Although from the results, the Germans were very tolerant of France, but if they failed, they would fail! This made Marcel somewhat resistant to this tender.

"To be honest, I thought of the reason why the other party might refuse, but I really didn't expect it to be a financial problem." When Dr. Henkel saw Marcel's reply, he couldn't help but smile helplessly. Crown Prince Ruprecht asked for invitation. But who knew that now, the other party refused because he had no money. This is really... embarrassing. Not only Marcel felt embarrassed, but also embarrassing Dr. Henkel. After all, if he added the contents of this reply letter when he asked for it, the Crown Prince would probably be very unhappy!

"If Mr. Marcel is willing to participate, we can provide travel expenses and related expenses, and money is actually the least problematic," said the assistant next to him.

"So if he was given money, he wouldn't want to come? What if he was disheartened by the aviation industry now?" Henkel asked.

"Uh, that's not our problem, it's a pity." The assistant said helplessly.

"No, this is our problem. His Royal Highness wants to meet this French aviation designer at this exhibition, and we as subordinates must solve this problem. What the Crown Prince wants is the result, and how to do it is our business." Henkel said.

"This is a bit difficult. After all, he is in France, a country that had met the Empire on the battlefield a year ago." The assistant said.

"Okay, this question is not important. The important thing is to complete the task and book me a train ticket to France. However, find me the address and contact information of the sea company. I want to go to Toulouse tomorrow morning." Henkel thought for a while and said.

"You want to go to France in person to meet that designer?" The assistant was surprised. After all, Henkel is the crown prince's chief aviation technical consultant and is the top presence in the entire German aviation industry. Now, he is going to France to meet an unknown person.

"IMHO, this may be a waste of time for you, after all, you have something more important to do," the assistant said.

"As the Crown Prince's aide, I need to solve the problem for him. As an aviation technician, I need to verify whether this French colleague is worthy of the invitation of His Royal Highness. If he is just a fame, I will state it in the report. If he is really talented, I will overcome all difficulties to complete this task." Henker said.
