Without the Super Seven, Factory 132 can survive, and can survive very well. After all, the production of the J-10 of the 611 Institute must be carried out in their 132 Factory, and even the future production of the J-31A will also be carried out.
In their 132 factory, they can make huge profits as long as they produce aircraft.
However, Super Seven was Tu Lao's lifelong effort after all, and he did not want to give up on this project.
At the current International Defense Exhibition, Mr. Tu felt disappointed when he saw that no one was paying attention to him. However, Qin Tao's words made Mr. Tu excited again.
My own Super Seven has not reached a dead end yet. It still has a future. As long as Mr. Qin says it does, it will definitely have it!
"Of course, your most important task is to raise funds to build this aircraft as soon as possible. Time waits for no one. If we delay, there will be more and more second-hand F-16s and second-hand MiG-29s on the international market.
, will impact the sales of this aircraft."
Mr. Tu nodded: "Well, we will work hard and make sure this plane makes its first flight as soon as possible!"
In later generations, even if the J-10 can be exported domestically, Lao Ba is still a loyal fan of Xiaolong. There is no other reason than that it is cheap, low production costs, logistics maintenance, personnel training, repair and upgrades, etc. Lao Ba also has huge
The advantages.
Qin Tao continued to look around the booth and said with some regret, "What a pity, Mikoyan Design Bureau didn't come."
Some people are happy and some are worried. After the collapse of the Red Empire, the Sukhoi Design Bureau relied on the export of Su-27 fighter jets to make huge profits and became the most prosperous military industrial enterprise. However, the Mikoyan Design Bureau is rapidly declining. If
If it weren't for the order for Asan's MiG-29K carrier-based aircraft, Mikoyan Design Bureau would probably be in trouble.
Under such circumstances, the Mikoyan Design Bureau will of course have to cut back on expenditures. Anyway, Dongfang is destined to be unable to purchase MiG-29s, so they simply did not come. A trip would cost travel expenses and rental fees, which they were reluctant to bear.
The once lofty Mikoyan Design Bureau has actually fallen to this level, which makes people sigh.
"Yakovlev Design Bureau is here. They didn't rent a booth. They used a corner of Factory 320's booth." Mr. Tu said.
"Well, let's go over and take a look." Qin Tao said.
The Yakovlev Design Bureau has completely given up on the fighter jet project. Now their flagship product is the Yak-130 trainer aircraft. Although it seems unremarkable, in fact, the international market for third-generation higher education aircraft is still very large.
They are still confident about the future.
There were many people in front of the booth, but most of them came to see Factory 320. After all, Factory 320 directly brought a full-size model. The K-8J was still eye-catching. It is one of the few ships in the world.
Trainer aircraft.
Mr. Shi was in a great mood and introduced the guests there.
"The K-8 is specially developed by our factory to adapt to the training requirements of modern fighter aircraft. After the pilots have passed the initial propeller training aircraft, they can directly master the flight of the jet on our trainer aircraft, and then they can fly corresponding
It is a two-seat model. It has low flight cost, simple operation and wide field of vision. It is the most suitable training aircraft. Moreover, we have also developed a carrier-based trainer aircraft based on it, which can adapt to the take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft.
.”
"Excuse me, why was this aircraft not seen during the last combat operation? Can it really be used on ships?"
"Mr. Reporter, your question already contains the answer. This aircraft is a training aircraft. Of course, it cannot appear in combat operations. Currently, it is conducting pilot takeoff and landing training at our naval aviation training base.
Its existence can greatly reduce the frequency of use of J-15 fighters. The J-15 fighters can be reserved for combat use."
Although it is a replica of the T-45, after all, the appearance of Chinese training aircraft around the world is similar. They said it was an upgraded version of the K-8, but it was not suspected. Compared with the doubts raised by the J-15, it is really lucky.
Most people are looking at this trainer aircraft, and no one is interested in the products of the Yakovlev Design Bureau.
They were interested, but the old guys at the scene were not discouraged. No one came to see it, so they went out and handed out leaflets to people coming and going in the corridor.
Compared with other design bureaus, Yakovlev Design Bureau has always been marginalized, which has allowed them to quickly find their own position in the tide of market economy and take the initiative at any time.
Qin Tao looked at it from a distance, then left, heading to the next place with the most people.
The Fourth Design Office in Mingzhou, a specialized ground-effect aircraft design office, had fluorescent lights at the booth. The small Peace Dove No. 1 was directly moved over, and the Peace Dove No. 2 carrying missiles was displayed as a model. This style
The unique aircraft has attracted a lot of people's attention.
Unlike other design offices, the presence of Lao Maozi was not concealed here. Alexeyeva, the project leader of the design office, stood in front of the booth openly and introduced customers in fluent Chinese.
"Our Peace Dove No. 1 has already begun a lot of test flights, including this time to participate in the exhibition. We did not use other transportation equipment, but flew here directly."
Flying here?
Everyone was surprised for a while: "Isn't this kind of equipment capable of flying over the sea? Can it also fly over land?"
"Yes, our test flight location was in Qiongzhou. After receiving the news about the exhibition, we flew all the way north from Qiongzhou to Haihe, and then westward from Haihe, flying hundreds of kilometers on land.
We arrived at the venue. By the way, we have some videos of the test flights here that you can take a look at."
In this era, LCD TVs have not yet matured, otherwise it would be enough to hang a TV directly above the booth. On the table next to the booth, there is a 21-inch color TV set high, which is flashing with snowflakes. Wait until
The staff put the video tape in, and the scene of peace doves flying over the land appeared on the screen.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "In order to use ground effect, our aircraft usually flies close to the ground, but if necessary, it can also fly to a height of several thousand meters.
"In the air."
"This method of flying close to the ground is most suitable for sneak attacks!"
After all, this is a specialized defense exhibition. Almost all the people present are knowledgeable about military affairs. Everyone immediately thought of the military use of this aircraft: ultra-low altitude penetration!
"Yes, so our Peace Dove 2 carries six anti-ship missiles on its back, uses ultra-low altitude flight to approach the target, and launches surprise attacks on the target at any time. Currently, this aircraft is under preparation and will be launched soon.
Construction has officially started." Alexeyeva continued to introduce: "Now, let's go back to the first model. It is a small ground-effect aircraft, cheap, and most suitable for use as a tourist project."
"We ordered two at Shuangsha Island Fishery Resort!" a voice sounded from behind.
The figure of the village chief Lin Liang appeared in front of everyone. He strode in and said: "This ground effect aircraft is most suitable for our tourist resort. We want to develop new tourism projects. Tourists can ride on our peace dove and fly around us."
Fly around the beautiful Nansha Islands and Reefs of the motherland and then come back."
Of course, this is all prepared by Qin Tao in advance. If a scientific research project has no practical value, it will eventually fail. Only by converting technology into productivity can a virtuous cycle be formed.
For something as high-end as a ground-effect aircraft, we can't just do research, but also have to market it. Small ground-effect aircraft can be used as maritime tourism projects.
The Mingzhou Group has a big business and a lot of resources to utilize, which can now be digested and absorbed internally.
People around him were immediately surprised.
Actually want to order?
"Is this thing mature? Why don't you purchase a seaplane?" A reporter immediately asked Lin Liang a question.
"It has been tested in Qiongzhou for a long time and is fully mature." Alexeyeva answered helpfully: "As for the difference between it and a seaplane, of course it saves money. We can say it from two aspects.
In terms of quantity, ours saves half the fuel than a seaplane. With the same size, we can carry twice as much cargo. This
This is the advantage of our ground-effect aircraft. It utilizes the hand of God and is incomparable to ordinary seaplanes."
The biggest advantage of ground effect aircraft is that they use ground effect to greatly save fuel and increase transportation capacity.
"Yes, we have also taken a fancy to these advantages. In the future, we will travel to our Shuangsha Island Fishery Resort and take this ground-effect aircraft for a round trip. The cost per person can be controlled at 200 yuan, and if we use a seaplane
, it costs more than three hundred yuan."
The location of Shuangsha Island is already in the tropics. You can experience tropical scenery and have fun without going abroad. Moreover, the price is cheap!
We must not let tourists feel that domestic travel is a cheat. If they have the money to travel abroad, it is cheaper. If they want to go to Madai in the future, wouldn't it be better to just play in the South China Sea of the motherland?
Even in the future, in order to better develop tourism, more islands and reefs can be filled in.
"Ground effect aircraft are still a new thing now, so we also provide the most generous services and the cheapest purchase price. If you place an order at this defense exhibition, the unit price is only one million, and we also provide five years of free on-site maintenance.
Serve!"
What can you do with one million? For ordinary people, it may be a sky-high price, but for many companies, it is a piece of cake. After all, Santana these days is still selling for 200,000! Buy one with the price of five Santanas
A tall ground-effect aircraft, absolutely delicious!
"Our Hainan Tourism Company has also ordered two ships!"
It’s not expensive anyway, and if you buy it now, you can get on-site maintenance service. This is worth a lot of money, so people responded immediately.
Qin Tao still did not go in to disturb the lively atmosphere at the scene. Everything was going according to his plan. The transaction amount of this international defense exhibition will also rise rapidly and become a good story.
As long as this first session is a hit, it will be easier in the future.
The sun gradually slid toward the west, shining on the majestic Yanshan Mountains. The shadows of the mountains covered the entire defense exhibition venue, and the figures were still shaking and gradually decreasing.
The first day of the defense exhibition is finally over!
In order to meet the needs of tourists, a row of simple houses were built on the edge of the site, with various signboards hanging on these houses.
Large plate of chicken, donkey meat barbecue, Lanzhou ramen... Of course, in order to cater to the needs of foreigners, there are also KFC, California beef noodles and the like. Although serious foreigners are also very curious about California beef noodles, but can
Just have a full stomach.
This place is the most popular at noon. After all, you don’t have to go out of the defense exhibition gate, you can do it directly inside. Moreover, although it is a snack, it is very authentic and has been praised by many people, especially those from foreign countries.
However, in the evening, there were fewer people eating.
After a day of travel, many people are tired and hungry, so they take the car back to the city. Eating the delicious food there is their first choice. Some people are really hungry and can't bear it anymore, so they continue here.
Solve stomach problems.
At this time, there was only one table of customers sitting in the signature Big Pan Chicken shop. The boss and the clerk were not very busy. They were just chatting at the counter and looking at the table of customers, always feeling a little curious.
There were a few foreigners and a few Chinese, and they were all communicating in English, speaking very quickly.
There were some people walking around the shop casually, looking like they were just strolling around. In fact, they were guarding the place vigilantly so that nothing could happen.
"Come on, everyone, this is our authentic delicacy." Qin Tao looked at the steaming large plate of chicken on the table and said to the people opposite: "In order to satisfy your taste, I specially ordered two plates. The one on the left is five-spice flavor.
Yes, the one on the right is spicy, you may not be used to spicy food."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The American opposite picked up the knife and fork.
They all worked for the American Aerospace Jet Engine Company, and the leader of the team was engineer Santos. He picked up a fork, inserted a piece of chopped chicken leg meat, and slowly put it into his mouth.
There is no salad dressing or other embellishments. The color of this muscle is deep red.
Finally, the fresh and rich flavor stimulated his taste buds.
"Good!" Santos immediately gave a thumbs up: "This is the best chicken I have ever eaten!"
Although a large amount of chicken is eaten in the United States, it is usually deep-fried and sandwiched in bread for a complete meal. How can this taste compare to a large plate of carefully cooked chicken?
"You can eat another piece of potato, it will taste different from the ones in your country." Qin Tao continued to suggest.
Potatoes must be added to the stew. The starch in the potatoes can make the soup thicker. At the same time, after the potatoes absorb the soup, the taste is even better.
Santos nodded and inserted it quickly. Unexpectedly, the potatoes were so stewed that they fell apart!
"You can use a spoon." Qin Tao suggested, picking up a piece of potato with his chopsticks and putting it into his mouth.
Soft, smooth and delicious!
"Potatoes are a meal where we live. I didn't expect that potatoes can do so many tricks here. We had a plate of shredded potatoes for lunch and couldn't believe what potatoes can do." Next to Santos
An assistant said while chewing.
"Everyone, we have a lot of delicious food in the East. Even if you eat it for a whole year, you don't have to taste the same food. You are welcome to come to our East often in the future."
Santos finished eating the potatoes and looked at the spicy plate aside: "Can I have a taste of this?"
"Of course, prepare the beer first." Qin Tao poured a glass of beer and handed it to the other party.
"Is this served with beer?" Santos was a little curious. He saw that the people opposite him were enjoying their meal and didn't drink beer.
"You'll know after you try it."
This time, Santos ate a piece of chicken breast. As soon as he put it in his mouth, after chewing the first bite, a pungent taste filled his mouth, and sweat suddenly appeared on his head.
Spicy, so spicy, the spiciness is so exciting!
Water, where's the water?
He picked up the beer on the side and drank it into his mouth.
Sure enough, a glass of beer had to be prepared next to him. The cold beer flowed through his tongue and throat, which alleviated this feeling.
Santos felt that he had made a fool of himself, so he went to see the other group of people, holding a large plate of spicy chicken with chopsticks, and they actually seemed to be enjoying themselves. Aren't they afraid of spicy food?
"The first time you eat it, you will feel it is very spicy. After you eat it a few times, your taste buds will adapt and you will have a unique feeling. Eating spicy food is also a tradition of ours. Do you want to try it again?"
Santos shook his head: "This five-spice one tastes pretty good too."
Santos gave up trying and continued fighting with the large plate of chicken. The taste was already quite good.
"When we're almost done eating, we ask the store owner to serve noodles. The noodles are dipped in soup, which makes them even more delicious." Qin Tao continued.
"Hmm, um, not bad."
Santos and the others ate very happily. They originally thought that there was nothing delicious in such a small shop, but they didn't expect that the food would taste so delicious.
When he was full, he suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Qin, where is our business?"
Eating is secondary, talking about business is the main thing! They have already set their sights on the NK-33 engine, who would have thought that it would be bought by the Mingzhou Group, it is too late!
"Business is good." Qin Tao said: "We have sent people to pick up the goods from the Kuznetsov Design Bureau's warehouse. Those rocket engines are in a state of storage. We will transport them back to China intact and put them in our
In the warehouse, when the time comes, you will send people to select them. There are more than two hundred units in total. Whichever one you like, you can get it."
Santos nodded: "Well, this is the best thing. Can we test it?"
After all, it was in stock, so they didn't know whether it could be used. They couldn't just rely on seeing it, they had to test it.
"Testing? You also know that our Mingzhou Group is a shipbuilding company. We don't have any testing tools. If you can bring a full set of equipment, you can test it.
Try it, but if you don’t use it after the test, you will have to pay us for the wear and tear.”
The original unopened package is definitely different from the one that has been opened and tested. It is logical to pay a wear and tear fee for the unpacked test.
However, let alone the wear and tear costs, just a rocket engine test tool is not cheap!
The word tool is not very appropriate. It should actually be a rocket engine test bench. This thing costs a lot of money because you have to worry about it exploding when ignited and various preventive tests are required. This is different from a car.
Just listen to the sound when it catches fire, it will explode directly.
Moreover, once installed, it is difficult to disassemble.
Therefore, if the other party wants to conduct on-site testing, Qin Tao can certainly meet their requirements. After the test is completed, the entire rocket engine test bed will remain with Mingzhou Group. In this way, Mingzhou Group may really slowly have the capability.
What about the ability to build rockets?
"Let's talk about these projects in detail later. I have to go back and report." Santos said, "How about the price?"
The expensive rocket engine test bench must be reported to the company, and the price must first be determined.
"After all, we are not engaged in rockets, so we are not good at engines. This time we just want to help the Kuznetsov Design Bureau. We only make a profit from the shipping fee. For luck, we sold it for 3.88 million US dollars.
How about Taiwan? It’s much cheaper than producing it yourself.”
Xu Zhengyang paused slightly with his chopsticks and looked at the American's reaction across from him.
There was a joyful expression on the other party's face: "Of course, no problem, Mr. Qin, it's so refreshing to do business with you. We thought you would ask for five million. They all said you were shady. In fact, you are the most honest."
Got it!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The chicken nuggets in Xu Zhengyang's chopsticks almost fell off, thanks to his superb martial arts and timely reaction.
"Here are the noodles!" The waiter came up with noodles.
"Everyone, let's continue eating. Regarding the contract, when we finish eating, we will go to the office area of the defense exhibition to sign it."
"good."
That's how things were settled.
The night breeze was blowing, and Xu Zhengyang drove Qin Tao home in a specially customized bulletproof version of the Tiger Head.
In the past few years, the road conditions were not good, so Qin Tao often took a Mercedes-Benz G. In the past two years, the road conditions have been getting better and better. For the sake of style, Mingzhou Group also specially purchased a Hutou Ben. After all, in the 1990s, this kind of
A car is a symbol of identity and status.
Low-key? Qin Tao's actual situation does not allow it, he must be high-profile.
After all, even if the price of this specially customized Hutou Ben is only three to four million yuan, the business he is talking about can easily bring in millions, tens of millions of dollars, or even profits of over 100 million.
American Airlines Jet Engine Company has just signed an order for 12 engines. Each engine can earn 3.78 million, which is a profit of 40 to 50 million US dollars!
"It seems that the cooperation between them in the space field has not been carried out on a large scale yet." Qin Tao also concluded: "However, this is just this opportunity, and they may bypass us in the future."
This batch is purchased from stock. What about the next batch? Now that the Kuznetsov Design Bureau has money, it can improve the NK-43 and put it into production. Americans will definitely buy this upgraded model.
It doesn't matter if the goods are lost in your hands, the profit from this first batch is already enough.
"By the way, there will be a special program at the International Defense Exhibition on Zhang Zhongspeak tonight, right? He will definitely have a wonderful performance."
