Chapter 817 Construction of the 22350-class frigate begins
Construction of Chapter 818-class frigate begins
The biggest mistake they made was not to arrest Max.
There is a wrongdoer and a debtor, so they have the ability to cause trouble for Qin Tao!
Of course, if they can find it, they will definitely find trouble with Qin Tao. The problem is, Qin Tao doesn't give them a chance at all. Over the years, Qin Tao has been very cautious, not to mention the United States, even Maple Leaf Kingdom and
He doesn't go to countries like Kangaroo Country, and he rarely even goes to Europe. When he travels on business, he usually stays in the countries with which he has the best relationship, such as Da Mao.
Therefore, this time something unexpected happened to the Mingzhou Group, Da Mao quickly began to express support.
"In order to support the just cause of the Mingzhou Group and to support the human aerospace industry, we have decided to support the Mingzhou Group. We will crack all the computer software of American companies and put it on the Internet for use by those who need it!"
Crack the software!
This trick is even more ruthless. You must know that in this era, software is charged for use, and the cost is not low. A genuine Windows system costs several hundred, and a professional drawing software even costs thousands.
Many times software is more expensive than hardware.
Although there have always been pirated software on the Internet, these software basically live in the dark, and few people take it out in a big way. Now, the hackers are very rude. After cracking the American software, they can do it openly
Free for worldwide use.
There is free software, but who would use paid software? Now those software companies are worried.
Countless pressures poured into the White House, accusing them of breaking the rules and causing things to get out of hand. If this continues, all high-tech companies in the United States will collapse.
Under heavy pressure, Bai Fangfang finally compromised.
Max walked out of the dark cage and saw the sunshine again. During this period, he didn't know what was happening outside, but he was determined that Mr. Qin would definitely find a way to rescue him, because Mr. Qin once said that he would land on Mars.
, and Max is the most determined one, and Max will turn Mr. Qin’s ideas into reality.
As long as he doesn't admit guilt.
During this period of time, his mind has become very calm. Now that he has time inside, he will continue to conceive of the idea of landing on Mars without any distractions, and he has thought about many things more thoroughly.
Click, click!
The camera sounds.
"Mr. Max, you are free again. Is there anything you want to say?"
"Mr. Marks, will you stay in the United States?"
"Mr. Max..."
Countless reporters came up and asked all kinds of questions. Looking at these people, Max smiled: "Dear friends, I believe that although the road to Mars is full of difficulties and dangers, as long as we go on bravely, we will definitely succeed.
It will work!"
"Some people, who have no ability themselves, will be envious and jealous when they see others doing research and development, and they will try to use various methods to stop you. Such people are blocking the wheel of history, and they are bound to do so.
Will be crushed by the wheels of history!"
Although Max doesn't know what's going on behind the scenes, he must build momentum now. He must continue to build momentum for landing on Mars. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he can attract more investment.
"Humanity's exploration of the universe will never stop! If certain forces are incapable, then it is time to withdraw from the stage of history and let us, the Starship Company, do the work! Please stop wasting taxpayers' money!"
"I believe that one day, our starship company will successfully land on Mars. We will smile disdainfully at the intrigues on the earth. We are ashamed to associate with them. Our future is the sea of stars!"
There was applause all around. It must be said that Max's speech was quite contagious. I don't know how many people were moved by his speech. Then, a large number of donations poured in to the Starship Company.
Max regained his freedom, and his prestige was even higher, while NASA, the leaders whose dirty side was exposed, left sadly. Mary packed her things and left with mocking eyes. She was very angry in her heart. These damn idiots
, their surrender this time will only make the Mingzhou Group more unscrupulous!
White house.
"I'm really unwilling to accept that this is the result!"
"What can we do? This is already the best outcome. Our Internet has not been hit further, and many of our high-tech companies have not suffered losses. Moreover, doing so will make Mr. Qin relax his vigilance. In the future,
, we will find an opportunity to catch him, and when the time comes, we will truly seize the weakness of Mingzhou Group! Maybe, the entire Mingzhou Group will have to be sold to our shipyard!"
These people are still dreaming.
"Michael, have you summed up your experience? Can you give us a good counterattack against the next cyber attack?" Someone looked at Michael.
"Everyone, we conducted a statistics and found that our computers using Intel processors are the most vulnerable to attacks and the easiest to control." Michael was not as relaxed as them, and his tone was very serious.
"What do you mean? Just say it directly, don't make us guess."
"What I mean is that they probably found a vulnerability in our Intel processors and then used this vulnerability to attack us." Michael said: "At present, they have not announced it to the public, and they should keep this as a secret.
"
secret?
Everyone looked ugly.
"Then what should we do? Completely eliminate Intel's computers? Then what should we use? AMD or Loongson? Aren't we going to be controlled by the Orientals in the future?"
Michael didn't say anything. This is an unsolvable problem. Even AMD uses Eastern chip factories to manufacture their products. Therefore, Easterners know all the designs of their processors and it is easier to find loopholes. It's just a matter of exploiting or not exploiting them.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Loongson computer? Then there are no secrets at all.
There was chaos in the white house, and no one could come up with a reliable solution. On the other side, a special plane from the Minzhou Group Transportation Company took Max back from the United States. However, for better publicity, the special plane did not directly
It landed in Qiongzhou, but in Huating.
In Huating Airport, reporters surrounded the three floors inside and outside. There were even two or three times more security guards than before. When Max got off the plane, countless reporters rushed up and broke through the human wall of security guards.
.
Mingzhou Group had already made pre-arrangements for this matter, and Max immediately jumped onto a high platform nearby and looked down at reporters.
The reporters rushed forward and could not go up any more. They looked up at Max and felt that Max was even taller. At this moment, Max seemed to be a returning king. He was also very excited and looked at him with bright eyes.
under.
"Dear journalist friends, thank you for your support. If it weren't for the help of your media friends, I wouldn't have been released so quickly." Max had already learned about the entire incident on the plane and knew that Mr. Qin had done his best. Reporter
This group does not care about good or bad, and only reports on the most eye-catching news.
But when facing reporters, you still have to say this. This is a group that must not be offended, and you have to flatter them.
"As soon as I got off the plane, I breathed in the smell of fresh air. The air was filled with freedom and ideals. I liked the land here. I decided that I would never go anywhere in the future. I would be on the land of the East.
, to complete the great dream of landing on Mars."
"Excuse me, Mr. Max, do you want to become an Eastern nationality?"
"Of course, if it is possible, after all, Eastern nationalities are the hardest to join. I can be respected here and realize my dreams. You have also seen what happened to me in the United States."
"Mr. Marks, what are you going to do next?"
"Mr. Marks, have you ever tried to cooperate with NASA before?"
"Yes, I have considered cooperating with NASA before to help them launch spacecraft and help them launch and maintain the International Space Station. But now, I have lost trust in them. Next, I will concentrate on the research of reusable rockets.
I will cooperate with the aerospace departments in Europe and the East. No matter what difficulties I encounter, they will not stop me from landing on Mars." Max said: "Our Starship Company has always been committed to low-cost access to space, and those who are bloated
The bureaucratic space agency is completely different. I promise here that within ten years, we will be able to sell tickets to space to the public, and the price may be as low as one hundred thousand dollars. Anyone who wants to enter space will
With this opportunity, this is no longer an industry monopolized by certain institutions, but an industry owned by the public!"
His words have always been belittling NASA, but this time he completely broke up with NASA.
After accepting questions in front of reporters for more than half an hour, Max finally said goodbye to these reporters, left the airport, and got into the car. Mr. Qin was already waiting for him in the car.
"Max, you have been wronged." Qin Tao said.
"No, it's all for the advancement of human spaceflight. They are just a bunch of clowns. Mr. Qin, thank you for everything you have done." Max was sincere.
Mr. Qin's energy is too great, and his attack method is very special. This time he was able to come out, and the hackers played a big role. Mingzhou Group used its advantages in electronic computer technology to win this battle.
Qin Tao nodded: "If you want to join our country, I will handle the procedures for you. There are many foreigners in our Mingzhou Group who choose to stay in the East for the rest of their lives."
"I want to stay in the East." Max's attitude was very firm: "I don't want to fight with them in vain. It would be a waste of my time."
When he first met Max, Qin Tao just fooled him. Later, he got a batch of engines and simply fooled Max into tinkering with the starship. Qin Tao knew that people like Max were unwilling to be inferior to others, so he was always there
Make two preparations so that once Max leaves, he can continue the starship project.
But unexpectedly, the Americans were so stupid that they actually detained Max, and then tried to use Max to threaten themselves. This time, they gave Max to themselves.
Now, Max has to work on the starship in a down-to-earth manner and will never have other ideas.
With Max's return, the incident came to an end, and Qin Tao did not take any time off. He then returned to Mingzhou without stopping.
Mingzhou Shipyard builds various warships all year round, and has long been accustomed to orders from foreign customers, but this construction order is of great significance.
This is Lao Maozi’s order!
On this day, almost all the old men in Mingzhou Shipyard got the news: Da Mao decided to build a brand new frigate from Mingzhou Shipyard!
When they heard the news, they were filled with emotion.
"More than ten years ago, when the Red Empire was at its most powerful, we were launching tens of thousands of tons of warships every year! Now it's good, Da Mao is so depressed that he wants to come to the East to order warships."
"Yes, the Red Empire has collapsed, and all countries are in dire straits. I heard that every shipyard is almost going bankrupt. Thanks to our quick action, we arrived in the East early. If we had stayed there, we might not even have wages now.
I can’t get it.”
"Yeah, it's useless even if you get it. Have you heard of it? How terrible the inflation rate has been in recent years! Many people's wages, if they are not spent in the current month, will be lost next month.
I can only buy a few bottles of vodka!”
Da Mao came to the East to order frigates. In their eyes, this was the phenomenon of a powerful empire declining to the extreme, and it was also a sign of the power of the East. They were filled with emotions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! For people at the top, the view is different.
"Your Excellency Nikolai, we meet again." Makarov and Babbage looked at Nikolai who got out of the car, with complicated expressions on their faces.
Once upon a time, they often met at the shipyard in Ermao. At that time, they had been discussing the progress of the heavy-duty aircraft carrier cruiser. Everyone was proud when they stepped on the large flight deck.
That era has passed, and now they continue to work enthusiastically in the East. It seems that nothing has changed except for changing places, and it seems that everything has changed.
"Yes, we meet again." Nikolai said: "We have cooperated very happily before. This time, I hope we can continue to cooperate happily. Makarov, you are the general person in charge of our frigate this time.
?"
"Yes, I heard that this warship was going to be built for Damao, so I volunteered to come over. Nicholas, please rest assured that I will do my duty as before and walk around the frigate every day. I must
This warship is delivered to Mao with high quality and high standards."
There are two aircraft carriers under construction by the Mingzhou Group, and someone needs to be responsible for both. However, now the Mingzhou Group is full of talents, and many people can be the chief designers of aircraft carrier construction, even if Makarov and Babich are not here
There is no problem with front-line supervision.
The frigate built for Da Mao was of even greater significance, so Makarov decided to embark on it himself. Moreover, since they were both old Mao guys, it was easy for them to communicate with each other.
"Yes, Makarov, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future." Behind Nikolai, Shishkin said.
Only one frigate will be built in the East, and subsequent frigates will still be built in Damao, so Shishkin also came with him to master more essentials in the construction, which will facilitate domestic manufacturing in Damao, and it can be obtained in this way.
A business trip subsidy, after all, their Northern Design Bureau is too poor.
"Shishkin? Are you here too? Okay, we can work together again in the future." Makarov was also very happy.
Back then, the Severn Design Bureau designed a heavy-duty aircraft-carrying cruiser and the Nikolaev Shipyard built an aircraft carrier. The two parties cooperated seamlessly. Although Shishkin was not the chief designer at the time, he often went to the shipyard. Both parties knew each other, and now they are reunited here.
.
Qin Tao was also very emotional, and a poem came to his mind.
It's a common sight in Prince Qi's house. Cui Jiutang heard it a few times before. It's the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. It's the season when the flowers are falling. It's time to see you again!
However, it doesn’t seem to fit the situation, so let’s put it another way: we all come from all over the world and come together for the same goal!
"Nicholas, the time is almost up, how about you go up and speak first?" Qin Tao pointed to the rostrum set up in front of the slipway and said.
Nicholas nodded and strode forward.
"We, Mao and Dongfang, have had many friendships since ancient times. Now, after the collapse of the Red Empire, our relations have developed further. We cooperate in the energy field, and we have a common position on many international events. Just recently, when Max
When Mr. was detained for no reason, we also contributed our share. This time, we are here with full expectations to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of the frigate!"
"In the past ten years, our navy has not added a brand-new warship. This is of course inappropriate for us. We have been planning to produce and equip brand-new warships. Until today, these plans have finally become a reality.
For us, this is a new beginning, we will bid farewell to the backward warships of the past, and we will have brand new modern warships!"
"Now, I announce that the Gorshkov-class frigate's first ship has officially started construction!"
The plasma cutting machine that had been prepared long ago began to cut the first steel plate. When he saw the steel plate, Shishkin suddenly frowned.
"Mr. Qin, if this steel plate is used at the bottom of a warship, wouldn't it be a little too thin?"
Although they had already seen the design drawings, there were no detailed dimensions marked on them. Now that they saw the steel plate, they already felt something was wrong.
The bottom of a warship must be immersed in seawater all year round, and it will inevitably be eroded by seawater. It may even be stranded when sailing in shallow sea areas. Therefore, it must have sufficient strength. The first steel plate to be cut must be a warship.
The bottom one, is it too thin?
"Mr. Shishkin, you don't have to worry. Although the steel plate is thin, it is strong enough and there will definitely be no problems. The hull will be tested at sea here after it is manufactured. It will never be broken by wind and waves after going to sea."
Qin Tao said.
Of course it was Asan's frigate that broke in the wind and waves. Shishkin knew that the Oriental people must have tampered with it. Now he seems to understand. It seems that it can be done without tampering. He just needs to change the marking of the steel plate.
.
Orientals use high-grade steel plates. Even if they are thinner, they can withstand various tests! But what about Damao? Do they have such steel plates in China?
Back then, they could build aircraft carriers and produce high-strength steel, but that is all in the past. After so many years, can steel plants continue to produce the same type of steel? If they cannot, how can they produce the same type of steel domestically?
warship?
He already felt something was wrong.
"Mr. Qin, why do you design and use such a thin steel plate? Even your warships don't use this grade of steel, right?"
"Well, of course, this is to meet the needs of your navy. The displacement must be small and there must be more weapons on it. So what can we do but reduce the weight of the hull? By using this kind of steel, we can make the hull at least
Reduce the weight by two hundred tons. How many missiles can these two hundred tons be enough to install?" Qin Tao rolled his eyes at the other party: "If it is thickened, the number of missiles carried will be halved. Will the Navy be satisfied?"
While talking, the steel plate had been cut and then entered the three-dimensional CNC bending machine. Under everyone's eyes, the steel plate was easily pressed into the corresponding shape and formed in one go!
Construction in the East is fast and low-cost because they have all kinds of advanced equipment! Looking at the CNC bending machine, Shishkin was filled with envy.
The bent steel plate was put on the slipway, and when the second steel plate came up, the welding process officially began. When everyone saw the robotic arm on the side aiming at the welding seam and starting automatic welding, they were even more surprised.
Even welding has been automated!
No wonder, although Mingzhou Group has expanded its scale in recent years, it no longer recruits welders from all over the world, because they already have machines that can replace a large number of welders to do such repetitive work.
"If everything is automated, wouldn't it be possible to build a frigate in a few months?" Shishkin asked in surprise.
"If it's just welding, it will only take a few months, but building a warship is not just welding, there are other tasks to be done." Qin Tao said: "The later outfitting and so on cannot be automated.
You have to take your time."
Shishkin nodded, looking at the sparks of the arc, still full of envy. Then he turned and looked around. On the slipway, there was another behemoth. It was an aircraft carrier built for a wealthy family. At this time, the hull had begun to take shape.
The prototype looks very spectacular.
Next to the aircraft carrier is an Aegis battleship, which is almost ready to be launched into the water. Looking at the opening of the phased array left on the bridge makes people think a lot.
In the dock in the distance, there is also a super aircraft carrier under construction. From the modules next to the dock, it can be seen that it has been built to the rear of the ship.
The scale here is larger than the original Nikolayev Shipyard.
"President Qin, can we see other warships?"
"Of course not. Everyone, there are a lot of secrets here. You must be careful not to inquire about projects that have nothing to do with you, let alone try to get close. Otherwise, if someone finds out, I won't be able to protect you."
