This is the territory of United Airlines. Since the cooperation to establish "Holy Light Air", the number of takeoffs and landings at the airport has increased by more than ten times in the past six months, forcing United Airlines to step up investment in upgrading the airport and improving air traffic control capabilities.
But United Airlines is very happy!
Zhou Qingfeng put all the collected aircraft under the name of "Holy Light Airlines" and handed them over to United Airlines for operation.
Not to mention large aircraft such as the IL-76, the Albatross training aircraft alone has greatly improved United Airlines' ability to train pilots.
The domestically produced J-7 can be called the worst advanced trainer aircraft in the world. It is more difficult to fly than the J-7, which makes the domestic air force pilot training efficiency very poor.
United Airlines has successively acquired more than a dozen L-39 Albatross in its hands. The Air Force was greedy and had no money to buy them, so it simply transferred some training tasks to Nanyuan Airport to use them specifically for training aircraft.
United Airlines, on the other hand, has nearly a hundred large and small aircraft, and its strength has increased several times. The airline has very busy flying tasks every day, and its profitability has also increased dozens of times.
Zhou Qingfeng usually doesn't care about the specific business of "Holy Light Airlines". He only controls part of the personnel power and checks the accounts regularly. It doesn't matter how much he earns or how little he earns, as long as he ensures the transportation tasks of big and two cents, and doesn't support idle people.
Just for this transportation task, Nanyuan Airport had to hire engineers to urgently build a warehouse of hundreds of thousands of square meters specifically for storing transshipment cargo.
Even ‘Harmony Logistics’ is involved, with old devils hired from Japan imparting experience and teaching domestic old haters how to build a large and efficient domestic and international freight system.
On weekdays, goods come in and out of the new warehouse at Nanyuan Airport very quickly, and there is rarely any hoarding. Whether it is domestic light industrial products or Maozi's heavy industrial machinery, as long as there is goods, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them.
But two months ago, a batch of aircraft spare parts were shipped from Boryspil, Ermao, and have been stored in the warehouse, which led to a reduction in warehouse utilization efficiency.
This is my own warehouse. For a normal commercial company, the inventory storage fee alone would be a lot of money.
United Airlines people can identify these "aircraft spare parts" as disassembled large fighter aircraft bodies, spare parts engines, special maintenance tools, etc.
But..., no one really thought too much about it. After all, there was a lot of equipment shipped from Maozi.
Zhou Qingfeng has no interest in military equipment, but he can't stand the visiting groups under him who are moving around everywhere, and all the good things from the alliance are moved to the country.
Historically, a lot of goods were moved domestically. However, due to the failure to establish an effective commercial and trade system, the total volume was not enough just by purchasing foreign exchange. When the Holy Light took action, the transportation volume increased hundreds of times.
There are tanks, planes, cannons, and all sorts of other things. Even if they are of no use, it would be good to transport them back and put them in a museum. They are very cheap anyway.
Especially since April, Da Mao's "shock therapy" has really caused a shock, and it has become an even mess.
How chaotic is it?
In 2002 of the new century, a set of "Alliance Historical Archives" was published in China, which introduced all the historical records of the Alliance from its founding in 1917 to its disintegration, in domestic affairs, diplomacy, military and other fields.
This set of books is very rich in content, including meeting minutes, reports and instructions, and personal letters. It claims to have redefined international relations in the twentieth century.
But where did such detailed content come from?
It's very simple, just spend money to go to more than a dozen national archives to make copies.
But now it’s easier, why make a copy? The ruble has become waste paper, just give it to the dollar, and the original will be taken away.
If you give me a few more dollars, I can bring over researchers from the Maozi Archives. Let's compile a book together and expose Maozi's dirt.
In this context, the business activities of 'Holy Light' are actually maintaining the order of the Mao family. Because no matter how bad the order is, it is better than chaos.
So there were a few dismantled fighter jets at Nanyuan Airport, and the United Airlines people were not surprised at all. The most they could do was report and ask, "Whose is this pile of junk? It has been gathering dust for the past two months."
It takes up too much space, please take it away quickly."
Zhou Qingfeng got thirteen Tomcat airframes and a large number of spare parts from Persia. He lost one in Baghdad to divert Ying Jiang's attention.
Twelve more were originally placed at Kiev's Boryspil Airport, with the intention of using them for maintenance transactions with Persia. Among them, three of the 'Tomcats' with the most intact airframes and capable of flying again were dismantled and shipped back to China.
Uncle Zhou didn’t know what to do with this thing when he brought it back. But he just had a hobby of collecting. But it was not convenient to assemble it when he brought it back, so he kept leaving it at Nanyuan Airport. After a long time, he would forget it.
It just so happened that 'Shengguang' wanted to put its aircraft manufacturing plant in Tianyang, and the domestic internal affairs committee found it intolerable. In addition, it was learned that Zhou Qingfeng was going to spend 30 billion US dollars to buy a semiconductor production line from 'Mitsui'.
Even......
This guy has too much foreign exchange in his hands, so much so that the ministries and commissions that are desperate for foreign currency have decided to 'take a bigger step'. According to the official statement - the current focus is to stabilize the national economy.
Don't act like a fool. You will regret it only after the economy collapses.
There are many domestic aircraft manufacturers, but most of them are weaklings. People like Shi Fei who can only play with pesticide machines have simply disgraced the name of aircraft manufacturing.
Taking into account the leapfrog development that occurred after the cooperation between United Airlines and "Shengguang", the ministry wants "Shengguang" to cooperate with Shaanxi Aircraft to bring the manufacturing capacity of domestic military transport aircraft to a higher level.
However, the Hongdu factory has a very positive attitude and hopes to keep the project in the province. Uncle Zhou even dropped a bomb - I have a Grumman F-14A Tomcat.
Poor Professor Zheng, who was so old, he almost had a heart attack when he heard the news. After confirming it again and again, he walked out of the president's office tremblingly. He didn't dare to use the group's internal phone number, so he went to the city to find an encrypted phone number to report to the imperial capital ministries and commissions.
When the leaders of the ministry and commission learned about this, they almost jumped up and hurriedly asked who else knew about it. After confirming that the news had not spread, the superiors directly issued a gag order - no further information was allowed to be spread, and it was kept strictly confidential.
The warehouse at Nanyuan Airport was immediately sealed off, and the plastic sheet was immediately pulled up from the 'garbage' that had been left unattended for two months, and armed police were assigned to guard it.
Outsiders are not allowed to even get close, let alone seeing it.
People who looked at the warehouse were surprised at first - we made several reports to remove the pile of junk, but no one paid any attention. Now we are not even allowed to look at it, and discussion is forbidden.
Could it be that it’s still a baby?
The Air Force quickly sent general-level personnel to investigate. At the same time, they called Chengdu Aircraft and asked General Tu, who had been to the Grumman factory, to come to the imperial capital.
Chief Tu was still confused. He flew to Nanyuan Airport overnight and saw the closely guarded 'garbage'. Although the three aircraft had been dismantled for transportation, he still recognized the thing at a glance.
"Eh... isn't this the F-14A Tomcat? What's going on? In order to sell us the Tomcat, Grumman secretly sent all the planes here?"
There was a handsome young man next to him who was frowning. Hearing this, he slapped his thigh and shouted loudly:
"Yes, that's right. Grumman has been having trouble operating in the past two years and is about to be acquired by Northrop.
In order to save itself in business, 'Grumman' decided to bypass the Yingjiang government and secretly cooperate with the country through the channels of our 'Holy Light'.
In capitalism, as long as you have money, you can do anything, even sell the noose to hang yourself.
So, you must not confirm with Grumman. They will definitely deny it. But the planes have been shipped here, which shows the sincerity of Grumman's cooperation.
Aren’t you asking why the ‘Tomcat’ appears in China? I’ve explained it very clearly now, and it’s very reasonable. Just accept it.”
