Chapter 379 The Father of the Republic Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 379 The Father of the Republic’s Aircraft Carrier
Although Ye Kai said it lightly, no one in charge of security work dared to relax his vigilance.
In fact, during these major events, almost the entire armed forces in the Gyeonggi region became active, which was equivalent to a large-scale military exercise, with careful deployment arrangements in three directions: sea, land and air.
Several missile brigades in the suburbs of Beijing are also on the alert, with dozens of sets of anti-aircraft missiles already in operation. Once any UFOs are discovered that intrude into the airspace, they will immediately treat them as enemies and decisively destroy them.
The performance was strictly controlled for one and a half hours. At the end, the leaders came on stage and took photos with the actors. Today's party was considered a complete success.
Ye Kai also returned to his seat in the last ten minutes, sat upright, and persisted until the end.
It has been raining heavily outside. It is estimated that there will be some minor obstacles when the team withdraws later. However, judging from our army's habit of winning battles and maintaining strict discipline, it will hardly pose any substantial threat.
.
However, when the leaders took the stage for a group photo, Ye Kai also received a warm reception. At least seven or eight young and beautiful singers and dancers under the General Political Department gathered around Ye Kai and squeezed him tightly.
Already.
Ye Kai was a little funny, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, pursuing progress is everyone's right and freedom.
It is actually not easy for these singers and dancers. Although they are not too old, most of them are under the age of twenty, but it is difficult to say how they will go in the future. Everyone is so actively clinging to a young major general.
Apart from finding him sitting in the front row, it was because he seemed much more affable than those old men with serious expressions.
After taking a group photo, Ye Kai followed the leaders and walked out, but of course not outside.
The leaders had their own dedicated passage, so they went directly to the small conference room next to it to take a short break, have some late-night snacks, drink some tea, and talk about work matters.
"Comrade Ye Kai, come here together. The leaders have some things to ask." Comrade Weng Qingyuan slowed down, watched Ye Kai follow, and said to him kindly.
"Yes." Ye Kai thanked him and followed Comrade Weng Qingyuan inside.
"Is Mr. Ye feeling well recently?" Weng Qingyuan asked casually.
"Much better. Thank you for your concern, Director Weng." Ye Kai replied.
In recent times, Mr. Ye's health has been a sensitive topic among senior management. However, recently, the news of Mr. Ye's recovery has gradually spread, so everyone feels a lot more relaxed. In such a chance encounter,
, naturally it is inevitable to say hello, which can be regarded as concern for Mr. Ye's health.
"What happened in the Black Sea Fleet is very surprising." Director Weng Qingyuan said with a smile.
Ye Kai replied respectfully, "This matter is actually not difficult to understand. After all, foreigners' ideas are somewhat different from ours. In our country, if there is such a fleet, it must be preserved no matter what. But
Most foreign countries have a mercenary system, and it is impossible to fight without money, so it is understandable for the fleet commander to sell ships. He has absolute discretion, not to mention that they are not loyal to anyone except the former Soviet Union.
The state has arbitrary power."
Director Weng Qingyuan nodded and said, "Yes, in our opinion, this change is too dramatic, as if it was directed by someone."
"Haha..." Ye Kai smiled, but it was difficult to answer these words.
At the beginning, he did not report to the senior management at this time. He only said that he would get the Varyag back. Later, after the fleet had entered safe waters, Ye Kai thought that the Standing Committee members had informed the matter and only said
The Black Sea Fleet was hired to escort the Varyag on its voyage.
By the time everyone reacted, the entire fleet had been sold.
By now, it is estimated that the shipyard is busy overhauling each ship, removing the former Soviet Union emblems on them, and replacing them with the national flag of the Republic and the navy emblem.
"We're here." Weng Qingyuan's voice interrupted Ye Kai's thoughts.
After the two entered the small conference room, they saw about twenty leading comrades sitting here.
Four members of the Standing Committee of the CPC Central Committee came, seven members of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and a total of seven leaders of the Military Commission and the headquarters, plus a few from the Central Committee Office and the Central Police Bureau, including Ye Kai, that is, twenty-three
personal.
"Comrade Ye Kai, come and sit here..." As soon as he walked in, he heard someone saying hello.
Ye Kai took a look and found that it was Comrade Lao Tian who was the new deputy chief of the Military Commission, so he smiled and walked over.
General Tian Wenjian pointed to the person next to him and motioned for Ye Kai to sit down.
Ye Kai sat down and took a closer look at everyone present. Sure enough, most of the faces were very familiar. However, only the second old man who was directly related to the old Ye family was present. There were also two or three members of the Central Political Bureau who were from the Ye family.
The ratio of humans to horses is really not too high.
Looking back at the time when I showed my prowess at the Central Political Bureau meeting, I really can't compare them. You must know that at that time, the old Ye family was present with a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, two members of the Central Political Bureau, plus several Central Committee members of the Ye family.
The political bureau members, as well as several central political bureau members from the same camp, raised flags and shouted loudly.
However, the current situation cannot be said to be bad. After all, every member of the Central Political Bureau is very important and represents the interests and demands of many people and cannot be ignored.
"Tomorrow is Army Day, so let's talk about some things about army construction." Comrade Jiang Cheng, as the first head of the Military Commission, of course had to speak first.
After hearing this, everyone expressed their agreement and deeply agreed.
"Thank you to the head of the Central Committee for your concern and support for the construction of the army. We..." As the actual head of the Military Commission, the second old man had to say a few words of course. At the same time, he also mentioned some issues in the construction of the army, such as funds and technology.
Talent, such as problems in introducing some advanced weapons and equipment, etc., as well as some problems in the lives of officers and soldiers, housing, children's education, medical care, etc.
Comrade Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly after hearing this, looked at Premier Yun and said, "Old Yun, you have to think of a way to deal with this."
Premier Yun also smiled bitterly after hearing this, "Comrade Hong Zheng will take care of it. Money is needed everywhere now, and we are stretched thin."
"Although I don't have any good solutions, no matter how difficult this matter is, it must be solved." Comrade Hong Zheng could only express his position.
He is a man of his word, and if he puts his words down here today, he must be doing something.
So the second old man expressed his gratitude to the central leaders for their support, saying that it has been 65 years since the army was founded. No matter how the international and domestic situations change, the army's purpose of always following the party will not waver.
I don’t know who said what, but everyone’s topic turned to the twenty-two new ships joining the navy and the Varyag aircraft carrier.
"Comrade Ye Kai has done a great job. I'll serve you tea instead of wine and give you a toast." Comrade Jiang Cheng raised his tea cup and said.
"Thank you very much, Chairman. This is my duty." Ye Kai stood up, gave a toast in return, and then expressed his gratitude.
Other ships are easy to say. Basically, there are no problems and they can be put into service directly. However, the Varyag aircraft carrier is different. There are some areas that need to continue to be built, so now it is going to the East China Shen Yun Base, with a shipyard from the Black Sea Shipyard.
Technical workers and designers renovated it, while referring to some requirements of the domestic navy and air force, and modified the parts above the deck, striving to create an aircraft carrier system that meets national conditions.
After this long-distance trial of Varyag, it was mainly used to test the power system. It will take some time before it can be officially put into use. After all, the renovation of the entire aircraft carrier system is a huge project, and it will have to wait for all the weapon systems and shipboard
If the machine is fully equipped, it will take at least several years.
This long-distance route has far greater symbolic significance than practical significance for the Varyag aircraft carrier.
In fact, the most critical technology for an aircraft carrier is the power system and carrier-based aircraft. The power system is the key to ensuring the aircraft carrier can move. The DN80 gas turbine used by the Varyag is the export model of Ukraine's 26.7 MW UGT-25000 engine.
Now that the East China Shen Yun Base has obtained the transfer of production technology for this power device, the East China Shen Yun Base may become the largest manufacturer of turbines for the Republic of China ship in the future.
"The Varyag is undoubtedly a conventionally powered aircraft carrier. Nowadays, the United States, the maritime hegemon, no longer produces conventionally powered aircraft carriers. Nuclear-powered aircraft carriers will gradually replace conventionally powered aircraft carriers." Ye Kai said on this matter, "
Nuclear-powered aircraft carriers have a range advantage over conventional aircraft carriers. Generally, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers do not need to replace nuclear fuel within thirty years, while conventional aircraft carriers need to replenish fuel after a period of sailing. In addition, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers do not need to take up much space in power design.
, it also eliminates the flue of conventional aircraft carriers, saves a lot of deck space, and can park more carrier-based aircraft, so nuclear-powered aircraft carriers still have great advantages. Of course, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers are technically complex and expensive to use, and not everyone
All countries can make and use it.”
It’s a bit strange that although Xu Yongnian, Chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, dislikes Ye Kai, he has the same positive attitude as him on the issue of aircraft carriers. He said, “Our aircraft carrier strategy is definitely to develop conventionally powered aircraft carriers first, and first resolve whether there are
After the technology matures, it will definitely develop in the direction of nuclear power. We must not only prepare to build ordinary aircraft carriers, but also prepare to build nuclear-powered aircraft carriers. The Varyag can be said to be a stepping stone in the development history of our country's aircraft carriers from simplicity to difficulty.
From this point of view, Comrade Ye Kai's contribution to the navy is huge, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the father of the aircraft carrier of the Republic."
"Thank you, I don't dare to accept this." Ye Kai quickly expressed humbly, "I don't have a wife yet, but I can't give birth to such a big son."
After everyone listened to Ye Kai's words, they burst out laughing, saying that it was indeed necessary to rejuvenate leading cadres. They had not heard witty remarks on such occasions in many years.
