Warship of Great Power Chapter 739

   Selling shares?

Muravsenko shook his head: "No, Mr. Qin, we can't do that. Our progressive design bureau has a glorious history. We are only encountering temporary difficulties now. As long as we have funds, we can continue to develop. We will not sell our shares, please forgive my stubbornness, in my eyes, this is a kind of betrayal."

   Boguslayev frowned there, this matter is not easy to handle!

"President Qin, if their design bureau doesn't have funds, then they won't be able to hire those engineers, and our joint research and development will be out of the question!" Zamotayeva approached Qin Tao and whispered, in order not to let others I heard that she is using Chinese.

"How is that possible? I just took two million and went to their design bureau to invite people. Do you believe that a large number of people will follow me?" Qin Tao also retorted in Chinese: "It's just that, the big guy doesn't look good. , The plan I proposed should be a win-win situation, we can't give them money for nothing. In the name of the group, I took two million directly from Genghis Khan Airlines' account, do you agree or not?"

   Zamotayeva stopped talking.

While Zamotayeva was communicating with Qin Tao, Boguslayev was also communicating with Muravsenko. The two chattered a lot, and Muravsenko's complexion became more and more ugly. However, his attitude began to loosen.

   "Mr. Qin, I have discussed with Muravsenko. If you plan to acquire 49% of the shares of the Progress Design Bureau, then two million is a bit small." Boguslayev said.

   "Okay, how much do you want?"

"Two million or two million, it's just that this share, can it be reduced to 10%?" Boguslayev said: "You also know that the shares of key companies like the Progressive Design Bureau are purchased too much. It must be approved by the government, and only if it is less than 10 percent can it not be controlled by the government."

   "It doesn't matter, we can wait for the government's approval." Qin Tao said: "Two million will only buy 10%, then we can spend 10 million to buy 49%."

  Muravsenko's expression turned ugly again.

Progressive Design Bureau, how proud they were, they created the firsts in the history of Lao Maozi, such as AI-20 is the first long-life turboprop engine of the Red Empire; AI-25 is their first turbofan engine for civil aviation; D-36 is their first high-bypass ratio three-rotor turbofan engine; D-18T is the first turbofan engine with a thrust exceeding 20tf; the front is all domestic, and they also have the world's first, such as D-136 is the world's first The most powerful helicopter engine; D-27 is the world's first operational propfan engine and so on.

What now? Now it will be reduced to selling shares in exchange for survival? They are not reconciled!

  However, it seems that there is no other way to choose.

   "However, if Mr. Muravsenko is in trouble, then we can also follow your request." Qin Tao said.

   "Really? That's great!" Muravsenko finally had a smile on his face: "Mr. Qin, thank you for your understanding and support!"

   Zhao Ling on the side did not speak, and silently played the role of an ordinary secretary. However, she was also full of emotion in her heart, the other party was really too poor!

  Two million dollars, you can buy 10% of their shares! They don't dare to ask for too high a price. Even if they are in decline now, in fact, the stock value is relatively low. However, except for Mingzhou Group, I am afraid that no company will buy them. Other aero-engine companies, regardless of Whether it's from the West or from the big hair, it's probably the kind that wants them to die.

  Mingzhou Group has 10% of the other party's shares, so they can continue to hold it in the future, and they will encounter less resistance. Given their operating conditions, they will have to continue to borrow money from Mingzhou Group in a short time.

  Therefore, it was the most correct choice for Qin Tao to stop in time. If this Muravsenko was pushed into a hurry, it might backfire.

   At this time, the agreement was finally reached, and everyone put on smiling faces again.

   "Okay, then our cooperation can continue, Mr. Qin, let's talk about the specifics of this research and development institution?" Boguslaev said.

Qin Tao nodded: "Okay, just as Mr. Muravsenko just said, please send 100 excellent engineers from the Progressive Design Bureau, and we will send another 100 here to form a design team of 200 people. The person in charge of the team , let our chief engineer who developed GT-25000 undertake it, how about it?"

"Mr. Qin, our engineers are all the best and most experienced. Now, this gas turbine needs to be improved on the basis of the D-18T engine we developed, so the chief designer should be ours. In charge," said Muravsenko.

  This guy always puts the honor of their design bureau first! Whoever is the chief designer will have the initiative and face!

"There are still a large number of D-18T designers in our design bureau, and their experience is the most abundant." Muravsenko continued to repeat these words: "Although you have experience in gas turbines, gas turbines are also aero engines. Remodeled. In our design bureau, there is still Lotarev, the former deputy chief designer of D-18T, and he is the most suitable chief engineer."

The era of D-18T research and development was not long ago. This engine was developed in 1979. At that time, many scientific research achievements of D-36 were used. As a turbofan engine with a large bypass ratio, its thrust was very powerful. In 1980 , the full-scale prototype came out. In 1982, this engine was installed on the Il-76 verification machine and the first An-124 prototype. By 1985, the D-18T had already promoted The An-124 transport aircraft flew all over the world, which shows how powerful the design strength of the Progressive Design Bureau was at that time.

  Now, it takes several years just to transform it.

  The chief designer of D-18T went to the United States. The deputy chief designer did not leave Ermao because of his age and other reasons. Now, it is most appropriate to ask him to come out. Besides him, who else can be the chief designer?

Qin Tao nodded: "That's right, if the former deputy chief designer of D-18T comes out, he can indeed be the chief designer, but, Mr. Muravsenko, the cooperation between us is not only about technical aspects. Considering it, we have to consider political and other factors, if Lotarev is allowed to be the chief designer and exposed to the whole world, then our cooperation may face great resistance.”

The chief designer, of course, has to be someone from our own side. After all, this is not only to develop a gas turbine, but also to obtain all the information of the D-18T. In the future, this engine can also be tinkered with when needed. come out.

   Moreover, no one can refute the reason he said now.

  D-18T is Lao Maozi's national treasure engine. If this engine is exported to the East, how much shock will it bring?

   After all, many eyes are staring at them. They don't want the East to be strong, and they don't want the East to obtain strategic-level weapons. This kind of engine is used in strategic transport aircraft. If it is exported to the East, many people will definitely trip it up.

Now the cooperation between Motor Sich and Mingzhou Group has made many people dissatisfied. The AI-222 project at the beginning was ignored. After all, this is a small thrust engine, but when it comes to D-227, there are many people. To intervene, the 400M project came to flicker, trying to make them give up cooperation, if it is the D-18T engine, then the people behind it probably will take action directly.

Muravsenko's face was ugly, but Boguslayev nodded: "Yes, Mr. Qin's consideration is reasonable. If the outside world knows, the Progressive Design Bureau has also been involved in this project. , and even became the chief designer, which will definitely put a lot of pressure on us. It would be better for the chief designer to be an oriental.”

"However, considering the strength of the Progressive Design Bureau, we think that we can invite Lotarev to be the deputy chief designer. In fact, who is the chief designer and who is the deputy is just a matter of title. Together, working on projects together? Even if our people become the chief engineer, they will still respect the people of the Progressive Design Bureau. After all, in our eyes, you are like the Soviet Union's big brother Pai The experts here are the same. Besides, among our people, not all of them have oriental faces, we also have people from Ermao here, and when the big guys cooperate, maybe they are all old faces.”

  At the beginning, for the development of domestic gas turbines, Qin Tao not only fiddled with technical materials, but also abducted Sergey and others. Sergey also gave an oriental name, Mao Youwei.

  Actually, Qin Tao didn't pay much attention to the 10% shares or the like. Even if someone made a trip in the future to prevent the Progressive Design Bureau from cooperating with the Mingzhou Group, those old men would never leave again. This 10% share is just an excuse to retain the designers of the Progressive Design Bureau.

  Muravsenko nodded.

   "Well, since this is the case, let's work together to develop this engine and prove our strength!"

   "Boss Qin, since we want to keep a low profile, the code name of this project should also be low-key." Boguslayev said.

"On your side, it has always been named after UGT. What we imported at the beginning was UGT-15000. On our side, we just removed the U and used GT to name it. Therefore, we named this project as the internal code It is UGT-40000, and the external code name is GT-40000. How about it? When we announced it to the public, we said that it was a joint cooperation with Motor Sich, and it had nothing to do with the Progressive Design Bureau. This newly formed design unit can also be called Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute." Qin Tao had planned it long ago.

   "Okay, then it's called Tianjiao Aviation Design Institute, and the model is UGT-40000!"

   "After eight years, we finally have a new research model." At this moment, Muravsenko was also very emotional.

   "Mr. Muravsenko, this model is just the beginning." Qin Tao said: "We can have more cooperation after our research and development has phased results."

  Muravsenko was excited: "Mr. Qin, can we still cooperate?"

   "Of course, the navy department recently held a meeting, and the issue of the ship-borne ten-ton helicopter was discussed again. We need a supporting turboshaft engine."

   "Mr. Qin, our Motor Sich company can produce it. The turboshaft engine used in the Mi-171 helicopter is produced by us." Boguslayev said quickly.

Motor Sich has been producing the TV3-117 turboshaft engine developed by the Klimov Design Bureau since the 1970s. This engine is used in a large number of Lao Maozi's helicopters, from the original Mi-8 to Later Mi-14, Mi-24, Mi-17, Mi-28, K27, K29, K32, K50, etc. are all in use, and it is definitely a versatile role.

This engine has also undergone a lot of improvements from the early stage to the later stage. The TV3-117VM engine now produced has a take-off power of 1397 kilowatts. At the Klimov Design Bureau, the improved model has reached 1618 kilowatts. Moreover, in later generations, the normal power of the TV3-117VMSBMV1 engine that was finally improved was increased to 1839 kilowatts, and the emergency power was increased by 2027 kilowatts.

  With this motivation, isn't it enough?

  The last time Qin Tao said to jointly develop, Boguslayev was thinking about it. After all, they already have qualified helicopter engines, and they have no research and development capabilities. Now, Qin Tao actually proposed it again.

"Yes, you can produce turboshaft engines, but your engines are too backward." Qin Tao said: "We have Mi-171 and Black Hawk in our country. According to the experience of the army, they all like black Hawk, so we hope to develop something similar to the Black Hawk engine."

  No matter how much TV3-117 develops, there is not much improvement. Even if the power is enough, what about reliability? What about longevity? What about fuel consumption? What about the control system? These are all backward, and Dongfang wants to stand at a new height for research and development!

   "President Qin, although TV3-117 was not designed by our Progressive Design Bureau, we have also designed helicopter engines. We can meet your needs!" Muravsenko said.

   It would be great to have a research and development project. One more research and development project of Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute means more income for Progressive Design Bureau.

   "Okay, then let's sign the contract as soon as possible, and first establish the UGT-40000 project." Qin Tao said: "We can start the research and development of the subsequent helicopter engine project when necessary."

   After finishing speaking, Qin Tao took another look at Muravsenko: "Mr. Muravsenko, you can also stay at the Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute in the future and guide your work as a technical consultant. We can give you a subsidy."

Muravsenko shook his head: "Let's forget it, Zaporozhye is my home, I still like to stay in Zaporozhye, with this project, we can maintain the Progressive Design Bureau, President Qin, I have to thank you."

  Not coming now? There will still be opportunities in the future. Anyway, we will cooperate in the future, and it will be easier to meet each other.

  The next day, in one of the most solemn auditoriums in the capital.

"I'm very happy today. We met an old friend here again." The leader who presided over the meeting was very excited: "At the same place last time, we signed a cooperation agreement with Motor Sich to establish Genghis Khan Airlines and cooperate in production AI-222 engine, now, this engine has been used in many domestic models, and even exported along with the aircraft, now, we are going to cooperate with Motor Sich Company to establish Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute, so that As a result, our production and R&D can be better linked together. At this important moment, on behalf of Eastern Aviation Industry*, I presided over the signing meeting. I am very excited. We also hope that we can further Deepen cooperation!"

   It took an hour for the leaders to speak, not only from the East, but also a few leaders from the Ermao side. After all, taking this kind of thing with them can also be regarded as a political achievement.

  The reporters on the scene were also very excited. They all knew that the establishment of Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute would definitely do a great job.

   What exactly is it going to do?

  After the leader finished his speech, it was finally the turn of Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute.

   "Now, we invite Comrade Wen Xueyou, the dean of Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute, to give you a speech!"

  Wen Xueyou walked up to the microphone, feeling a little excited.

Although Qin Tao asked him to build a 40 MW gas turbine, he was very excited, but he also knew in his heart that since he was cooperating with Lao Maozi, the old Maozi would definitely send some powerful engineers, and he didn't care what happened. Who will be the chief designer, but now that the position of the person in charge falls to him, he is still very excited.

   You must not disappoint Mr. Qin's trust!

  The signing meeting was very grand, so some reporters were also invited. These reporters were not at the meeting site, but watched the live broadcast in the next room. After watching the broadcast, there will be time for live questions at the end.

   "Wen Gong? He is engaged in gas turbines!" Hearing this introduction, some of the reporters immediately began to whisper. These people are very concerned about Dongfang, and naturally they have heard of Wen Xue.

   "That's right, he was the one who invented the naval gas turbine Dongfang is using now. Now, how did he join Genghis Khan Aviation? What is he going to design?"

   "The Motor Sich company has never made a gas turbine!"

"Our Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute was established. The first task of this design institute is to design a 40-megawatt gas turbine. We named it GT-40000. Its appearance will make our gas turbine leap forward a big step forward. Step by step, from the current 20 MW level, it will be expanded to 40 MW, ranking first in the world!"

   "40 megawatts? What are they going to do?" Someone exclaimed.

  The current international mainstream gas turbine is the LM2500, with a power of only 20 megawatts. After improvement, it can be up to 30 megawatts. However, the gas turbine of the Orientals is actually going straight to the level of 40 megawatts?

   Wait, this is the Aeronautical Design Institute. The first product is not aviation, but a gas turbine?

"We can see that high-power gas turbines are needed in many places, including oil and gas fields on land, power stations in some energy countries, and certain ships. Our 40 MW gas turbine is just a foundation. In the future, we will build The performance of this gas turbine has been improved on the basis of 60 megawatts, 80 megawatts, and even 100 megawatts. It meets the needs of our users."

   "Military representatives attended the meeting!" A reporter discovered something: "Is this gas turbine for warships or aircraft carriers!"

  In addition to aircraft carriers, what other ships only use such large gas turbines? When the reporters ask questions, they must ask all these questions!

  Next, there is the signing ceremony, signing names on the beautiful red leather agreement. In fact, this is just a process. The real agreement is many pages, maybe thicker than the Oxford dictionary.

  The reporters were waiting, and finally, the signing ceremony was over.

  The reporters stood up, wanting to rush towards the exit of the conference room, waiting for those people to come out, and gathered around to ask questions, but they were stopped before they could make it.

   "Everyone, please don't worry. Next, General Manager Qin will come here to answer your questions."

  President Qin?

   They waited patiently, and Qin Tao appeared in front of them not long after.

   "Boss Qin, may I ask..."

   "Everyone, don't worry, raise your hands to ask questions." Qin Tao said: "Everyone has a chance to ask a question. Now, give him the microphone."

  The reporter who got the microphone was very excited: "Excuse me, isn't your Genghis Khan Aviation Design Institute an aviation design company? Why is the first product a gas turbine?"

"Mr. reporter, there is a problem with your punctuation. Aviation is not connected with the design institute, but with Tianjiao in front. We can add a word at the end, the design institute of Tianjiao Aviation, you understand Is it? Our design institute not only designs aero engines, but also gas turbines, and may also involve diesel engines. Don't be surprised if our design institute builds a harvester one day.”

What? Can you still understand this?

  Everyone was surprised.

   "President Qin, this gas turbine has a strong output power, and the initial power is aimed at 40 megawatts. Is it tailor-made for aircraft carriers?"

"Dean Wen has already explained that this gas turbine has a wide range of uses. Oil and gas fields on land, especially those energy exporting countries in the Middle East, will have this kind of demand. We are targeting this market gap. As for the aircraft carrier, it can indeed Install."

   "Excuse me, if you do this, will it pose a threat to world peace? Ermao actually developed military weapons with you, will this not be tolerated by the international community?"

"This reporter, you disrupted the order, so this is the last question." Qin Tao rolled his eyes at him: "I want to ask you first, the Vietnam War, the Pakistan-Malaysia War, and the Libyan War. Who is destroying world peace? By the way, do you have a kitchen knife at home?"

   Seeing the other party nodding, Qin Tao continued: "Then you are destroying world peace, your kitchen knife may behead the president of the country."

   "Then I throw away the kitchen knife when I get home, what about you?" The reporter also wants to debate: "For the sake of world peace, will you also stop this project?"

  "Then before throwing away the kitchen knife, you also need to cut off the stuff in your crotch, because you may green the president of the United States, and then trigger a world war."
