Chapter 4: The tough girl major
However, Fan Wubing broke his promise, not for any other reason, but because the satellite he ordered was about to be launched.
This is a big event, of course he needs to be present in person. At the same time, the personnel of relevant satellite communication companies provided by the military must also meet him at the Jiuquan base. Besides, there are some tricks to do in this.
So Fan Wubing explained to his father and mother the reason why he could not celebrate the New Year at home. Fan Heng and Zhang Mei were stunned.
"What?! What do you mean is that you bought three satellites from the United States and are now preparing to launch at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base? From now on, we will watch TV and spread the program through your satellites?!" Fan Heng asked in disbelief.
Zhang Mei was also surprised. Some time ago, when they were conducting popular science activities in grassroots schools, they talked about the benefits of satellite communications and looked forward to the future prospects of using satellite technology to serve teaching. However, they did not expect that Fan Wubing actually told them today that he bought satellites, which were made in the United States, and he bought three at once!
What is a satellite?! In our country, it is a representative of high-end technology! Every time a satellite is launched, it is not the attention of the national media, but the attention is paid to everyone. After success, the national leaders will warmly meet with the staff on the front line of battle, and the relevant important figures must be rewarded for meritorious service!
As a result, Fan Wubing actually said today that he had bought three American-made satellites and wanted to let the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base launch for him! Fan Heng and Zhang Mei were both eager to rush over and slapped his son!
"Oh, this is normal." Fan Wubing did not show any shame at all. He sat there and said complacently, "Satellites are just commodities, but they can't afford them. Now there are many large companies abroad that have their own satellites. Walmart, which runs supermarkets, has its own satellite communication system. Your son is also a top international celebrity. If you don't have a few satellites to use, you will be laughed at and out of date when you say it."
Fan Heng finally couldn't sit still, so he jumped up from the sofa, rushed to Fan Wubing, held him down, slapped him hard on his butt a few times, and then said angrily, "You're not doing anything, you actually use satellites to play with?! I think you're so full! How much is my monthly salary? You actually buy satellites to play with?! Are you going to buy a city to play next year?!"
"I thought about it, but it probably was a bit difficult. It should be okay to buy one or two small islands to play with." Fan Wubing replied with great difficulty.
"You kid just deserves a beating!" Fan Heng couldn't help but knock Fan Wubing to relieve his hatred.
In fact, as long as the son is rich, parents will naturally be happy, but Fan Wubing's way of playing is really unacceptable, and they can make such a big noise at any time. As the saying goes, wood is so beautiful that the forest wind will definitely destroy it. They don't want Fan Wubing to like to show off too much and end up with a bad ending.
This is not because Fan Heng and Zhang Mei are thinking too much, but because of this, the actual situation in China is like this. If you shoot the first bird, not to mention the distance, just after the founding of the country, how many storms have occurred, and how many momentous heroes have turned into jokes?
Out of love for his son, Fan Heng and Zhang Mei would rather live a life honestly than do these ups and downs, and they would just die for him so many more brain cells. Such a life is really worrying.
I don’t know what the reason was that the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base decided to launch on New Year’s Eve. Fan Wubing felt very depressed. He thought to himself, are all the people at their launch bases going to be in the New Year?
However, since the time has been determined, he had to try his best to rush over. After all, there is still a week before the New Year, and his secret agreement with the military must be implemented as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the satellite goes to the sky, he is still here and doing nothing, that would be a waste of time and money!
I have spent hundreds of millions of dollars to get the satellites in the sky, so I have to take back the capital at least, right?
So Fan Wubing arranged all the affairs of various places and drove straight to Jiuquan base.
Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center is built on an oasis in the Gobi Desert, surrounded by mountains in the west and river in the east. It is a Feng Shui treasure land personally selected by Marshal Nie Rongzhen. Jiuquan's Dongfeng Aerospace City is also the earliest and largest comprehensive rocket and satellite launch center in China. It is located in the depths of the deserted Badan Jilin Desert, and the closest Jiuquan City is more than 200 kilometers in a straight line.
It was named after "Jiuquan" at that time, because at that time, the missile satellite launch sites of various countries avoided their real addresses when naming them. Secondly, the launch sites were located in the vast Gobi Desert, so it was difficult to choose a well-known place name. Jiuquan is the closest city to the launch center and is a famous city in history.
The Jiuquan satellite launch base has an altitude of one thousand meters and covers an area of ​​nearly 3,000 square kilometers. The area is flat, sparsely populated, dry and rainy all year round, shorter spring and autumn, longer winter and summer, sunny all year round, small clouds, long sunshine, and harsh living environment, but it can provide good natural environmental conditions for aerospace launches, and there are about 300 days to conduct launch tests every year.
Although Fan Wubing had long heard of the name of the Jiuquan satellite launch base, he was obviously not familiar with the specific location of this place. Therefore, when he arrived in Jiuquan leisurely and contacted the base, he found that he was more than 200 kilometers away from the exact location.
"Damn, isn't this a scam?" Fan Wubing was a little confused, and then he remembered that things like satellite launch bases could not be built in densely populated areas. Of course, the more remote the place, the better. The desert Gobi, the best place is.
But how do you find it? It seems that there is no one selling this map on the market?
Fan Wubing deliberately searched for traffic route maps in the station and bookstores that could guide him to the base, but when he asked, he found that his expression was strange, as if he was a bad guy.
So Fan Wubing had to call the base again, explaining his difficulties.
As a result, the base was very happy, and immediately apologized and said there were omissions in the work. Fan Wubing alone could not find the base. They said they would come to pick up Fan Wubing soon.
Fan Wubing thought that when the people from the base came, he would have tomorrow, but he didn't expect that before he took a nap in the guesthouse, someone came to knock on the door.
"Who? Didn't you say don't bother me if you're okay-" Fan Wubing was very tired after struggling on the road for a few days. He was awakened by someone before he could sleep well. He looked very unhappy, but the knocking sound was stable and rhythmic, just like a clock, which made him unable to ignore it.
Fan Wubing put on a piece of clothing and walked out of bed. When he opened the door, he found a young girl in military uniform at the door.
"Girl Major?" Fan Wubing was stunned for a moment.
It seems that this girl is very young and has become the rank of major. Fan Wubing can't help but look at her a few more times. She has a well-proportioned figure, beautiful eyebrows, a hint of heroism, and a tall chest, a bit cold and arrogant.
Seeing that Fan Wubing was blocking the door and looking at him, she was quite rude. The major frowned slightly, but thought that the guest who was the base leader specially instructed to be treated well, but it was not easy to have an attack, so he asked, "Is it Mr. Fan Wubing?"
"I am Fan Wubing, who are you?" Seeing this scene, Fan Wubing understood a little, but he still had to ask clearly before talking.
"I am Major He Yun from Dongfeng Hotel. I am ordered to come and pick you up. We can set off now." The major said to Fan Wubing with a stern face.
Dongfeng Hotel is of course what is said to the outside world. In fact, it is synonymous with the base to specially entertain heavy figures. Major He Xiaowei, one of the former station figures responsible for receiving guests, generally speaking, many important figures have to be arranged by her.
"Do you leave now? I just slept for less than three minutes-" Fan Wubing was very unhappy to be disturbed. What should I do if I can't wait for tomorrow?
Major He Yun denied, "No, the base commander and experts are waiting, we need to get there as soon as possible."
"But I don't seem to be able to drive a car," Fan Wubing pointed at his dark circles and said to He Yun.
"It's okay, we have a car." He Yun agreed.
"But it's not safe to put my car here-" Fan Wubing deliberately made things difficult for him.
"Then let's drive your car." He Yun said with a frown. She felt that the guy in front of her was really annoying.
Seeing that He Yun was determined to leave immediately, Fan Wubing had nothing to say at the moment. He simply packed up his own things and left the guesthouse, but his yawning was really sleepy.
When He Yun saw Fan Wubing's car, he understood a little why Fan Wubing said it was unsafe to put it here. It turned out to be a Mercedes-Benz.
He Yun came with a lieutenant. At first glance, that guy looked big and round. He probably could beat eight people. There was a military jeep beside him.
Fan Wubing immediately curled his lips, thinking that the performance of this kind of car is not a little worse than his own. If he sits in it for more than 200 kilometers, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not get sick.
"Driving a Mercedes-Benz? OK!" When the man with big waist and round waist heard Fan Wubing ask to drive his car, he immediately laughed, "I have driven all the armored vehicles, but I haven't driven a Mercedes-Benz. Today I've been enjoying my hand."
Fan Wubing immediately said with some displeasure, "Well, don't deliberately mess with my car! This car is not cheap, and it is not easy to repair if it is broken."
"I'm afraid I'll give you a good car?" The big-sleeved and round-waisted man immediately sneered.
"Then it's okay." Fan Wubing was choked and was a little annoyed, thinking that if you were torture and you wouldn't have to stay in the village or the shop halfway, I'll see how you complete the task!
The Mercedes-Benz has a relatively large space. Fan Wubing is lying on the back seat, with a big waist and a round waist driving, while Major He Yun is sitting in the passenger seat and then set off on the road.
Before Fan Wubing's eyes closed, he felt that the car seemed to fly. He couldn't help but open half of his eyes and glanced. He found that the man with big waist and round waist was playing difficult racing technology. He not only drove at high speed on the road with complex terrain, but also drifted one or two from time to time. Fan Wubing suddenly got up from behind, patted the man with big waist and round waist and shouted, "I said brother, can you stop a little? If you break the car, let's walk to the base?"
After being troubled by him, Fan Wubing could not sleep peacefully behind him, and his stomach was filled with fire.
Finally, the man with a big waist and a round waist gave Fan Wubing a more outstanding one. He directly moved the center of gravity of the car to the wheel on one side, and the other side was empty, just like playing acrobatics.
Just as Fan Wubing was about to leave, the car stopped.
He was surprised to find that there was a helicopter parked opposite, and there were several military vehicles on the ground, and more than a dozen soldiers stood in a row waiting there.
"Is this?" Fan Wubing looked at He Yun with some confusion.
He Yun got out of the car and said to Fan Wubing, "Save time and take a helicopter faster."
This was a good idea. Fan Wubing nodded, but he pointed to the big-sleeved and round-waisted man and said to He Yun, "If he drove the helicopter, I would rather go to the base."
He Yun burst out laughing, then said with a stern face, "Don't worry, he won't drive the helicopter soon."
"Oh, that's good!" Fan Wubing nodded, thinking that if this madman was asked to drive a helicopter, he would be a passenger.
After the three of them got on the helicopter, they closed the hatch door.
"Huh? Is there no one else?" Fan Wubing looked in the cabin, and there was no one else, so he asked in surprise.
"There are only three of us." He Yun replied.
"Who will fly the plane?" Fan Wubing immediately pointed at the big-sleeved and round man and said, "If it were him, I'll go down now!"
It’s not that Fan Wubing is timid, but that the man with a big waist and round waist is too reckless. The car is a little better. At least he runs on the ground and cannot fly. However, he can’t help but he can’t help himself. If he gets tossed and falls off, who can’t live up to the big US dollar bill, pounds and yen he earns for?
He Yun said to Fan Wubing, "Don't worry, I'll fly the plane."
You? Fan Wubing looked at He Yun and felt that the girl seemed to be very calm, so she believed her.
When He Yun drove the plane and the propeller brought a large area of ​​dust, the soldiers around him had already made way out. He Yun quickly lifted the helicopter into the air. At this time, looking down, a large desert was under his feet.
Fan Wubing looked at it and felt that the northwest was indeed a very empty and vast place. However, before he could even appreciate it, there was a movement here.
He Yun got the plane into the sky, and it seemed like he had become a different person, and his movements seemed rough. He pulled and controlled various control poles, and the helicopter rolled in the air like a fly dancing.
"Damn, you want to kill me!" Fan Wubing was calm and was frightened at this time. He grabbed the metal handle of the seat tightly and firmly fixed his body. He had already greeted Hu Yun's 18th generation female ancestor and herself for seventy or eighty times.
Not only was Fan Wubing unable to bear it, but also the man with big arms and round waist was a little scared at this time. He thought to himself, why did Major He get angry today? His current attitude is hundreds of times higher than his racing skills just now!
With his old special forces soldier's physical fitness, he felt a little dizzy at this time. Isn't this kid on the plane so messed up? He looked at Fan Wubing and saw Fan Wubing's green face, and he was almost catching up with the Elf King!
Finally, the big waisted man had to bite the bullet and said, "Sister, today is to welcome the VIP, not a tactical exercise!"
Damn, tactical practice! Fan Wubing felt that his stomach was in a mess. If he hadn't practiced it himself, he would have really made a fool of himself on the spot. He was so angry that he hated He Yun in his heart.
"This barbaric major, if you have the chance, you must put her down! Let her know what the real climax is!" Fan Wubing cursed viciously in his heart.
However, after hearing the words of the big-shoulder man, he felt a little strange. Are they really brothers and sisters? They don’t look similar! He Yun looks very handsome, and the big-shoulder man is a bit ferocious and evil. No matter how you look, why don’t you look similar?
Could it be the brother and sister? But Fan Wubing took a look at the military ranks of the two people and immediately felt that it was unlikely. The identity difference was so big that the man would find a female boss without pressure or be in the military camp? Unless his nerves were abnormal!
However, the nerves of a man with a big bra and a round waist seem not very normal.
Fortunately, when he shouted, it seemed that He Yun also listened to the advice of a man with big waist and round waist, and finally let the plane fly smoothly.
Chapter completed!
