Everything is ready at the airport. Sound waves, dummies, and drones are used to drive away birds.
Then the test flight started again.
The fighter jets were taken to a more remote and confidential place for test flights.
What is being tested at the airport now is the passenger aircraft that Li Wenjun plans to launch and has undergone numerous improvements.
The first test flight was a small private jet.
Li Wenjun hired two domestic retired civil aviation pilots at a high price through Suicheng Airlines.
There are planes taking off and landing at the airport every day.
On the road, we often see airplanes taxiing from the factory to the airport.
At first everyone was a little excited and would point to the sky and say, "Look, the plane."
Then I became numb.
The takeoff and landing of that plane was really noisy.
Li Wenjun rented land within half a kilometer outside the airport and planted trees. He also built sound insulation barriers around the areas where aircraft take off and land. Aircraft also use low-noise engines and install silent covers and exhaust mufflers on the aircraft engines.
Everyone lamented that he never stopped improving.
Yang Shouzhuo laughed that Li Wenjun was wasting his efforts.
He had never heard of anything that wasn't noisy around the airport.
Then Li Wenjun proved to him that the noise could be reduced to the point where it would not affect residents.
Because of this matter, there were even TV stations that came to interview me specifically.
Li Wenjun said: "I can't talk about the relevant technical points because it involves many technical secrets of our 'Wenjun Industrial'. But you can go around the airport to experience how quiet our noise is."
The TV station thought he was bragging, so he chose a random day and ended up in the woods outside the airport without saying hello in advance.
I heard a few small whistling sounds throughout the day, similar to the sound of a high-power fan, but it disappeared.
If they hadn't seen a silver "big bird" rising and landing in the sky, they would have thought that there would be no test flights today.
Then they released the live audio and video, which caused a sensation.
Many experts say this is impossible and unscientific.
Some people also say that because the plane is small, the noise is low.
Then the TV station released the models of aircraft they photographed that were test-flying that day, including medium-sized aircraft with a capacity of more than 200 passengers.
So it's not too small.
Many airports have done airport shielding and noise reduction, but the effect is not that good. Is it a problem with the noise barriers and the noise reduction technology of the aircraft itself?
This news led to another wave of sales of Li Wenjun's noise barriers.
In fact, Li Wenjun has already used this noise barrier along the high-speed railway line that passes through the town.
It’s just that everyone didn’t notice it and didn’t compare it.
------
Li Wenjun's aircraft has been proven to be superior in quality and stability to similar foreign products after hundreds of inspections by the aerial survey bureau and multiple tests by himself.
Drones have no rivals at all, so there is no comparison object.
"Wenjun Aircraft Factory" was renamed "Wenjun Aerospace Equipment Company" in a high-end, foreign style.
At the beginning of the year, Li Wenjun's passenger aircraft products officially began to be sold to the outside world, announcing that "Wenjun Industrial" had begun to enter the civil aviation market.
Models were placed in all the halls of the "Wenjun Leisure Center" and advertisements were scrolling on the screen.
"Wenjun Aerospace Equipment" has three models for sale at the same time, with a passenger capacity of 100, 50 and 20 passengers respectively.
The one with 100 passengers is used for regional passenger routes, and the one with 50 passengers is the company's business aircraft.
The last type is high-end private jets specifically targeted at high-end wealthy individuals.
The latest model of similar products in the world, the "Gulfstream" IV, sells for about 40 million this year.
Li Wenjun sells it for more than 20 million, and its configuration is higher than that of the Gulfstream.
The top wealthy people in Hong Kong City who were hunting with Li Wenjun each bought one.
Tang Zhaonian wanted to buy it, but Ji Qingyan refused. The one-year maintenance fee was too high and was unnecessary.
Yang Shouzhuo said that he was fooling around, that is, the smallest plane might still be praised by some people, but who would dare to buy a larger plane from him.
It's not like mobile phones, which have poor quality and are at best inconvenient for making phone calls.
If you don't do this well, you will die.
Sure enough, no one asked about the business jet with fifty people and the regional jet with more than one hundred people.
Even within Wenjun Industrial, many people doubted that Li Wenjun took this step too fast and too hard.
The cost of building an aircraft can easily reach tens of millions. If they are piled up in a warehouse, they are putting the entire "Civil and Military Industry" on a cliff.
Li Wenjun ignored those doubts and urged the factory to quickly build regional aircraft with more than 100 people and test-fly medium-sized passenger aircraft with more than 200 people.
In July, a major accident occurred. When a passenger plane manufactured by a former superpower took off from Sioux City Airport, its engine suddenly failed and it failed to leave the ground as planned, but overran the runway.
More than a hundred people on board were killed and more than a dozen injured.
The myths created by the superpowers have been shattered one by one.
Everyone's admiration for it has turned into doubt and regret.
Because the former superpower has disintegrated, if there is a problem with this plane, I don’t know who to call.
Only half a month later, a regional aircraft purchased by a northwest airline company from China Aerospace Corporation for more than 20 million US dollars had another accident.
This aircraft model is said to be one of the most automated and insured passenger aircraft in the world in the early 1990s. Even if all the engines of the aircraft are turned off, it can still land safely. However, it has been put into operation for hundreds of hours on Northwest Airlines.
Then it crashed.
Almost all of the more than 100 people on board were killed.
Everyone began to question: Are foreign-made aircraft safe?
Boeing has accidents every year.
All airports in the country began to clean up and inspect all regional aircraft, and many aircraft of the same model as the one involved in the accident were taken offline.
Suddenly, no planes could fly on the branch line.
As if waiting for this moment, Li Wenjun's small plane quickly filled its seats and sold dozens of them at once.
Even the airline company in Suicheng bought two planes.
"Wenjun Aerospace Equipment" not only cleared out its inventory, but also placed orders until next year that cannot be completed.
The billions of R&D costs that Li Wenjun had previously invested were recovered in no time.
After these regional aircraft were put into operation, they were very stable. Li Wenjun set up a feedback group to track the individual or corporate customers who bought the aircraft, inquire about the use of the aircraft, and then summarize it every day and hand it over to "Wenjun Aerospace Equipment" continuously
Improve.
Ensure that the products delivered later are continuously improved compared to the previous products.
Some Southeast Asian island countries have heard of the reputation and have also bought them for short-distance routes.
"Wenjun Space Equipment" is at least somewhat famous in Asia.
When Yang Shouzhuo received a call from Li Wenjun, he thought this guy wanted to show off his achievements to him.
As a result, Li Wenjun said: "Want to play?"
The corners of Yang Shouzhuo's mouth twitched and he asked, "Where are you going?"
