Rebirth of the Flying Era Chapter 1333

  The orthopedic cloth should be vaccinated in advance for these people to avoid unpleasant situations in the future.

It's not that he fears Du Fei or cares about the hundreds of millions of dollars in orders. These are nothing to him.

 What really concerns Orthopedics is that they must work hard to publicize this cooperation as a model, so the process and effect of the cooperation must be perfect.

 At least there should be no defects until the heat has passed.

At the same time, Du Fei received a call and two J-8 test flight prototypes arrived.

The prototype of the J-8 made its first flight successfully three years ago, and several more were subsequently built. However, there is always a problem, which is that severe buffeting occurs when entering supersonic speeds.

This kind of buffeting is very dangerous at high altitudes, and may even cause the fighter plane to disintegrate in the air.

This problem has been plaguing the project team and has not been resolved until now.

The two J-8s that came this time both flew from Shenshi at subsonic speeds.

After Du Fei heard about it, he didn't even go home and drove directly to the aircraft manufacturing factory.

 For this project, Duffy set aside an area in the new car exclusively for this collaboration group.

It was past ten o'clock when Du Fei arrived at the factory.

 At the aircraft manufacturing plant, searchlights were turned on on the tarmac, and two slender fighter jets were parked there.

 Because it is a prototype, it has not been painted and looks a bit rough.

Upon learning that Du Fei was coming, the two pilots who flew the plane immediately came out of the lounge nearby, trotted to Du Fei, stood at attention and saluted: "Report to the leader, Huaguo People's Air Force, Third Flight Test Group, First Squadron, Peng Zhanbo , Wang Zhongli, report to you!"

Du Fei stood still and waited for the two of them to put down their saluting hands before stepping forward to shake hands warmly.

Those who can become test pilots are all selected from among the elite pilots, and they risk their lives on every test flight. Everyone is a brave man worthy of respect.

Let them come over this time. In addition to flying the plane over, the most important thing is that they know the various situations of the J-8 best and can provide the cooperation team with the most authentic first-hand information.

Then Du Fei walked under the plane, looked up, and reached out to touch the landing gear.

This was the first time he saw the famous "Ba Ye" after traveling through time. Before traveling through time, he had only seen pictures in various magazines or on the Internet. Most of them were of the improved J-8 II. This prototype with nose air intake was rarely seen. See less.

Du Fei couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and thought of many things in the past.

 Especially in the world before time travel, what happened in 2001...

Du Fei cheered up and gritted his teeth subconsciously. He would never allow that situation to happen again this time!

Unknowingly, when he came back to his senses, the corners of his eyes were already moist.

 The next morning, Du Fei personally brought the orthodontic cloth stone and a group of foreign technical experts to the Jingfei factory.

 Last time I came here to correct the fabrics and stones. This time I came back and I couldn't help but be surprised: "Du, you have built two new workshops!"

Du Fei sat on the battery car and said with a smile: "The production capacity is not good~ You know, our technical level is limited, and our production efficiency is incomparable with yours."

Du Fei was self-effacing, but he didn't take it seriously. He was a pilot himself and had some knowledge of aircraft manufacturing.

But he didn't say much more. In fact, since the H-8 successfully tested here on May Day last year, he had guessed that this aircraft manufacturing factory would become a new aviation giant.

I just didn't expect that in less than a year, it would develop so fast and four new workshops would be built!

 At this time, their battery car stopped in front of the gate of Workshop No. 7.

This is where the Y-8 was originally produced, and a Y-8 just rolled off the production line, freeing up a work station.

  The next work of dismantling the J-8 and re-improving the design will be completed here.

 As the other party to the cooperation, Shenyang Aircraft Factory will also send some technical personnel over in the future.

 Everyone changed into work clothes in the cubicle and walked into Workshop No. 7.

The lights inside are bright, and according to Du Fei's request, the floor has been painted with floor paint. When illuminated by the light, it looks spotless and quite high-end.

 The walls of the workshop are also painted white, and with the addition of various brand-new tools and the large aircraft being assembled at the work stations, the place looks no less than America's aircraft factory.

This surprised the Meguo people who had always been contemptuous.

In the imagination of most of them, Huaguo's aircraft manufacturing factory is just a small workshop, with some workers covered in grease stained with twists, holding rudimentary tools, and building even rudimentary airplanes.

However, this is not the case at all in reality. The aircraft assembly workshop in front of us at least looks no worse than their domestic assembly workshops.

As the saying goes, a man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. This is why Du Fei wanted to spend more money to build the workshop of the aircraft manufacturer like this.

Whether they are people at home or people from outside, at least come here to take a look and shock them first.

 Lest dogs look down on people, it can save a lot of trouble.

 Everyone walked inside, and the newly vacated No. 2 station was in the middle. There were four stations in the entire workshop, which could assemble four medium and large aircraft such as H-6 or Y-8 at the same time.

 At present, there is a Y-8 at the No. 1 station that has been assembled to 80%. Because it is to be converted into a gunship, the weapons to be installed are already placed beside it.

Jia Zhi Bu Shi couldn't help but asked: "Du, is this the gunship you produced?"

 Du Fei smiled and nodded: "How about it? Are you interested in buying one for fun?"

Jie Bushi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Du Fei's sales pitch to be blamed on him: "Why should I buy this?"

Du Fei said: "Just a toy, don't you like hunting? During the hunting season, go to the big forest and do a few "chut-chut-chuts". I'm sure you can catch whatever you want."

Jie Zhi Bu Shi laughed loudly: "Du, this is not how hunting is done, it completely loses the fun."

Du Fei was also joking, and did not expect to actually sell the gunship machine to the orthodontic cloth stone. If he really wanted to sell it to his son Walker cloth stone, he would be more likely to sell it. That guy is not very smart and spends money lavishly.

However, Jie Bushi had an idea and asked: "The video you made last time was very good. I heard that many people want to buy this gunship?"

Du Fei said: "It's not that evil. It's just a few companies that really paid for it. So far, they haven't sold a hundred of them." At this point, he looked back meaningfully: "What? Are you really interested?"

Jie Bushi pursed his lips and whispered, "We'll talk about it later."

 While speaking, I had already arrived at workstation No. 2.

 Two J-8s were towed here in advance and surrounded by racks to facilitate personnel's work.

 Seeing these two prototypes, the accompanying American expert frowned again.

 After that, the skin of the aircraft is removed to reveal the structure inside.

This time the Meguo people frowned even more. In their opinion, the structure of the J-8 was really crude.

Du Fei didn't know what was going on, and stepped forward with a smile: "The goal has been set here, and then it depends on the abilities of the experts. In the end, we will choose an improvement plan from the two plans of GM and McDonnell Douglas. ,and…"

 Speaking of this, Du Fei deliberately emphasized his tone: "The final total budget of this project named J-82 will be more than 500 million US dollars."

Most of the Meguo people at the scene were surprised. Except for the two team leaders, others did not know that it turned out to be a large project worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, Du Fei's words are just trying to make a big deal. The purpose is to defeat the arrogance of these Meguo people. Your technology is powerful, but you are here to serve me.

 You don't have to give in for five buckets of rice, but what about 500 million US dollars~

As for the final investment in this project, the contract hasn't been signed yet, so I can't brag about it.

　　Then the scene was handed over to them. Du Fei and Zheng Zhi Bu Shi left the workshop and returned to the office building here.

Although Du Fei does not work here all year round, there is still a fairly large office in the office building.

 There is usually someone cleaning.

 Back here, while others made tea, only Du Fei and Zheng Zhi Bu Shi were left.

The two chatted about old times, and Zhizhi Bushi once again brought up the last time Rockefeller asked to join Bandar Seri Bega Petroleum Company: "Du, they were very unhappy when you rejected Rockefeller last time~"

Du Fei took a sip of hot tea and said, "So what if you're unhappy, this is not America."

Zhizhi Bushi said: "Of course, but be careful, those guys won't give up."

Du Fei raised his eyebrows and said: "What can we do if we don't give up? They can also let people blow up our oil wells? Don't forget, they also have oil wells on the coast of South Vietnam. If they don't follow the rules, then I don't mind blowing them up. Lose some of their oil fields."

Jiao Zhi Bu Shi said: "Of course I believe you have this ability, but don't underestimate the power of Rockefeller. They have a huge amount of money! Maybe you are in the flower and fruit world and cannot understand the power of money..."

Du Fei smiled meaningfully.

 Of course he understands the power of money, which is a powerful force that can corrupt people's hearts. In fact, he became vigilant when Jie Bushi mentioned Rockefeller, but he still downplayed it: "Where do you think they will start?"

Zheng Zhi Bu Shi thought for a while and said: "It's really hard to say. I can only say to pay attention to South Vietnam. There are many resources that can be mobilized there. And you know those people in South Vietnam. As long as they are willing to give money, they can do anything. It's completely Regardless of the consequences.”

Du Fei pursed his lips. South Vietnam did have this characteristic. He said seriously: "Don't worry, I will pay attention. By the way, the gunship just now..."

Zhizhi Bushi leaned toward Du Fei, pressed his elbows on the armrests of the sofa, and asked, "How much does your gunship cost?"

Du Fei was surprised: "Do you really want to sell?"

Just now he said that he asked Jian Bushi to buy a hunting machine, which was actually just a joke, but he didn't just expect the other party to get money.

Zhizhi Bushi said: "No kidding."

Du Fei said: "I sold it to Cardano for 10 million US dollars."

Zhizhi Bushi knew the relationship between Du Fei and Ka Da Zuo. Currently, almost half of Ka Da Zuo's equipment was supplied by Du Fei, including missiles with a range of two thousand kilometers.

 Immediately said: "Seriously, please give me a price."

Du Fei raised his eyebrows, knowing that there must be something going on here: "You have made it clear what the situation is."

The orthodontic cloth was not hidden here, and the situation was directly explained.

 It turns out that Nico is trying his best to end the war in South Vietnam. Although there are still some difficulties at present, it will end sooner or later.

 But there is currently a big gap in the accounts of the Hexagon and the South Vietnam Front, about US$2.6 billion.

 This does not mean that there is only a difference of 2.6 billion, but that on the orthopedic cloth side, the only one that can be accessed is 2.6 billion, as for the others.

From the beginning of the war to the present, it has been fought for almost twenty years, with a total cost of more than 200 billion. According to the correctional cloth stone, at least one third of the layers must be washed away.

Du Fei couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this. He knew that America had its own national conditions here, such as a two-thousand-dollar teacup and an eight-thousand-dollar wrench.

 I just didn't expect it to develop to this point at this time.

  No wonder it has been suppressed by Sulian in recent years.

Had it not been for the surrender of "Map" later on, no one would have been able to hold on if he had gritted his teeth again. The reason why Zhiji Bushi focused on Du Fei's gunship was because he had a close relationship with Lockheed.

Originally, this hole was finally going to be plugged with Lockheed's AC-130 gunship that was about to enter service.

The unit price of this type of gunship modified from a C-130 Hercules transport aircraft is as high as 40 million U.S. dollars. As long as the Hexagon purchases 60 of them, the hole can be plugged.

 In fact, the cost of this simple modified gunship is less than five million US dollars.

 The rest was divided among the families.

But now there is a problem. Lockheed's gunship has some problems and it will not be mass-produced until next year.

 If there is nothing originally, just wait.

But now Nico is clamoring for an end to the war every day. If he really wants the war to be over, without the battlefield consumption, these accounts cannot be written off at all, and the trouble will be huge.

Recently, Correctional Shishi is also worried about this.

 Once the worst happens, their interest group will inevitably spit out some of the benefits they have gained before.

 To this day, when I saw a half-assembled gunship in the workshop, I suddenly had an idea.

Du Fei heard what he said. Even though his brain reacted quickly enough, he almost didn't come back to his senses.

He paused and confirmed: "You want to buy my gunship first, send it to the battlefield, and pretend to be a Lockheed ac-130? I understood it correctly, is that what it means?"

Jie Zhi Bu Shi nodded: "Yes, that's what it means."

Du Fei said: "No, I don't mean to offend, but... the US troops on the front line are neither blind nor stupid, can't they see that this is not a 'Hercules'?"

Jing Jie Bu Shi smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this. We will naturally have a solution."

Du Fei raised his eyebrows: "If you have money, you can make the world go round. What will you do when the war is over?"

Zhizhi Bushi shrugged and said indifferently: "In a war, isn't it normal to lose a few planes?"

It suddenly dawned on Du Fei that no matter how many planes he bought, they would all be destroyed. He couldn't help but pick on his thumb: "You are still ruthless in making money~ Tell me, how much do you want?"

Zhi Zhi Bu Shi said: "Let's get forty first, and then we'll talk about the rest."

Du Fei said: "I'll give you a preferential price, eight million US dollars per unit, no problem~"

I nodded without running the stone, and it was two million cheaper than Kaka Dajo: "No problem, but fast!"

Du Fei said: "Don't worry, we have nothing to do with each other. I'll give you a seal first. Forty aircraft will be delivered to you within six months."

 After the decision was made, the orthodontic cloth stone could not help but breathed a sigh of relief.

 In fact, in his true heart, he does not want to do such a thing. He has his own ideals of justice.

 But there is no way. If his family wants to succeed in the positive world, there must be support from interest groups behind it.

 Besides, his family is also an interest group itself, with all kinds of in-laws and allies, no one can do without each other.

 In this case, we can only achieve both prosperity and loss.

 So, no matter how unwilling he is, he must consider the interests of the entire group.

 Only in this way can he gain more support.

 When he was a teenager, he understood that people who cannot bring benefits to others are destined to be abandoned.

 As for why he dared to find Du Fei.

It's not that he trusts Du Fei much, but that he feels that he has huge overlapping interests with Du Fei in Nanyang.

Sri Bega Petroleum Company is ostensibly a collaboration between Du Fei and him, but in fact there is a more complicated distribution of interests behind his back.

Coupled with the special status that the textile and clothing group gave his family, he finally decided to let Du Fei help.

Of course, it cannot be said to be a help. The order for these forty gunships will also make Du Fei a lot of profit.

 The unit price is US$8 million, and at least US$5 million and above are pure profits.

 Forty aircraft is equivalent to US$200 million. If the final order quantity reaches 60 aircraft, it is US$300 million.

Even compared to the $2.6 billion black hole, it is only a fraction.

 Subsequently, the orthodontic cloth stone stayed for another two days before leaving.

The more than 20 technical experts brought here stayed and began to discuss the modification plan for the J-8 with the technicians from the Shenyang Aircraft Factory.

 Still divided into two groups according to General Motors and McDonnell Douglas.

 General Motors is led by Li Aode, and McDonnell Douglas is led by McCain.

Du Fei had previously been offered a $500 million pie, and both sides were working hard, and Li Aode also put away his arrogant face.

 At this moment, Du Fei's office welcomed an old acquaintance.

“Director Luo, please take a seat~” Du Fei politely asked a bald man in a Chinese tunic suit to sit on the sofa.

This person was Zhou Peng's superior in the capital, Luo Zhengming, Director Luo.

Director Luo said: "Manager Du is too polite. Just call me Lao Luo, but there are directors elsewhere."

Du Fei said: "Then don't be the manager. Call me Xiao Du."

Director Luo, who is willing? The fire equipment company is now at the deputy prefecture level, and Du Fei is half a level higher than him.

What's more, he had a clear idea of ​​Du Fei's situation. Although he agreed, he still called him Manager Du.

Du Fei didn't care. He made a cup of tea himself, put it in front of Luo Zhengming and asked, "How is the situation?"

Luo Zhengming said: "The comrades over there reported back that Li Ao was a bit arrogant. It is said that he was a child prodigy since he was a child. He skipped grades in elementary and middle school. He studied under America's famous professor in the field of aviation power in college and entered General Dynamics directly after graduation. Work…"

As early as when Jie Bushi brought people here, Du Fei asked the relevant departments to investigate, the most important of which were Li Aode and McCain.

According to Luo Zhengming, Li Aode has obvious character flaws and is addicted to playing Texas Hold'em poker.

Hearing this, Du Fei's eyes narrowed and he interrupted: "Do you have any gambling debts?"

Luo Zhengming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, he is very good at Texas Hold'em. He has won up to twelve thousand US dollars in one game."

Du Fei was surprised. Before, he thought that Li Aode, a fat-bellied middle-aged man, had nothing to do with a 'prodigy', but now it seemed that there was something.

Luo Zhengming said: "Do we need to start in this area?"

Du Fei thought for a moment and shook his head: "Look at the other one."

 Luo Zhengming took out another piece of information.

McKay King is also a graduate of an Ivy League school. Unlike his current silent character, he was a popular figure in school and once represented America in the weekly sports meeting of the fencing project.

Du Fei was surprised again. He didn't expect that these two people had a past worth talking about.

 But the McCain shown in the information seems to be different from the person he met this time.

Logically speaking, such a person should still be in high spirits by now. Why has his personality changed so much?

 Sure enough, Luo Zhengming got to the point next.

 In the second year after he graduated from college, his father's business failed and he committed suicide due to bankruptcy.

Du Fei suddenly realized, no wonder.

 From a rich young man who shouted for a silver spoon, he suddenly turned into a poor boy who had nothing and could only rely on himself.

Luo Zhengming added: "In addition, although his father's bankruptcy debt did not involve him, he had just bought back the house he had sold the year before last and had a housing loan of US$1.2 million for this."

Du Fei's heart moved, and he clicked his tongue: "It's really trying his best to buy back the house he lost. What an inspiring story."

Luo Zhengming heard Du Fei's attitude: "You want to start with this person?"

Du Fei nodded and reached out to pick up Li Aode's previous information: "This person is too arrogant and naturally thinks that he is superior to others. This kind of person is an unfamiliar dog. Even if you give him a million dollars, he will not be grateful. He will only think that he deserves it, and he will think that we are stupid and have too much money."

 “A stupid person has a lot of money?” Luo Zhengming smiled with a strange expression.

Du Fei casually threw down Li Aode's information and picked up McCain's: "This person is different. He has tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and knows the harshness of the world. The most important thing is that this expert has 1.2 million US dollars on his back. loan."

Luo Zhengming nodded: "I understand, and I will find ways to further worsen his financial situation."

Du Fei said with a smile: "If the loan is not repaid, the bank will take back his house. I believe he will make a wise choice."

 Ten days later.

　　It's Labor Day again in a few days, and the weather is getting warmer.

 Although the north suffered from drought last year, the domestic economic situation is still improving. This is the third year that the economic added value has exceeded 7%.

 After surpassing Italy last year, it will get closer to England this year.

 If nothing unexpected happens, it is likely to achieve the goal of surpassing Yingguo in the next year.

 In the market, various materials have become more abundant. Although the cloth tickets still exist, they have become decorations.

 The cloth flowing out from the textile and clothing group and sold domestically is of high quality and quantity, and the number of people wearing patched clothes in the city has significantly decreased.

 As for food, although there was a drought last year, the pressure on food was not great. The harvests in the northeast and south were not affected. It would be no problem to redeploy some grain reserves.

 Coupled with Borneo's climate, food is harvested three times a year.

 After the first batch of disaster victims who arrived in Borneo last year were resettled into villages, the first crop of grain sown has been harvested.

 Although the grain yield per acre is not high because he has just arrived and is not familiar with the local soil and climate, it is enough to be self-sufficient.

This is still the first crop of grain, and there will be two more crops. Once these grains are harvested, they can be fed back to the country.

As long as it remains stable for a few years, Borneo's grain output will surpass that of Northeast China, completely solving the domestic food problem.
