Warship of Great Power Chapter 753

  Chapter 753 Xu Zhengyang's other half

"That's right, Zhengyang used to be a soldier guarding islands and reefs, and even participated in secret operations. If he works here with Xiao He, there should be no problem." After Qin Tao finished speaking, he looked up. Glancing at the person behind him: "Zhengyang, I'm not going abroad for a while, so you don't have to follow me."

  Xu Zhengyang nodded: "Okay."

   "Mr. Qin, this soldier beside you used to guard the island?" He Qian looked at Xu Zhengyang excitedly.

"Well, let me introduce Xu Zhengyang, who has been with me for eight or nine years and has rich experience. Before joining the Mingzhou Group, he was a soldier in the navy, and his youth was also left on this island. When I came here, Secretary Xu also introduced to me the hardships of the year, and he lived in the first generation of stilt houses."

   "Salute to the first generation of reef guards!" He Qian saluted Xu Zhengyang excitedly: "You are an old man, and we will work together in the future. Please help us a lot."

  Xu Zhengyang was a little at a loss, and Qin Tao was a little curious, his secretary had never been so stage frighted, what happened today?

   "Xiao He, you don't need to be too outsider. Secretary Xu is not much older than you. In the future, when you work together, it's better to be more friendly. You can just call him Brother Zhengyang."

   "Yes, Brother Zhengyang." He Qian was very knowledgeable: "If you have time in the future, how about telling me the story of your first generation of reef guards?"

   "Then you talk, let's walk around casually." Zhao Ling pulled Qin Tao away.

  While walking, the two turned their heads quietly. At the chessboard, the two sat opposite each other. He Qian asked excitedly, and Xu Zhengyang answered with some embarrassment.

   "It seems that the two are having fun." Qin Tao said: "I didn't see it, how did you know?"

"This is a woman's intuition. Zhengyang has been with us for so many years and delayed getting married and having children. Last time, he failed to match him with the secretary next to Vitalia. He has his own views on mate selection. He is too open. , He was born in the army, and he still likes female soldiers, now, they are all soldiers guarding islands and reefs, they have a common language with each other, and working together for a period of time, maybe it will be enough."

"Well, this time we came to the South China Sea, our main achievement is not to choose a site for the nuclear power plant, but to find the other half of Zhengyang's life." Qin Tao said: "If Zhengyang can succeed this time, you will be his matchmaker .”

   "Yes." Zhao Ling nodded: "This is what I should do."

Unknowingly, the two walked to the entrance of the cafeteria. Before it was time to eat, the cook was preparing lunch. Qin Tao saw a cook sitting on a stool at the door, in front of a round stone mill with beans stuffed into it. , The white bean juice came out below.

   "Is this making tofu?" Qin Tao asked very curiously.

   "Yes." The chef who grinds the soybean milk said, "In the four dishes and one soup at noon today, there is spicy tofu."

   "Four dishes and one soup?"

   "That's right, since the land reclamation, our living conditions here have improved a lot. In order for the soldiers to have sufficient nutrition, we have four dishes and one soup for every staple meal."

   "Four dishes and one soup are really good. Our first generation of soldiers guarding the islands and reefs ate canned food." Qin Tao felt emotional.

   "Mr. Qin, this is not necessarily the case. It depends on luck. If luck is good, we will eat fish every day." Xu Zhengyang's voice came from behind.

He Qian stood next to Xu Zhengyang, smiling: "Yes, your first generation of soldiers guarding the islands and reefs must bring fishhooks before going out to sea. If you can catch fish, you can eat fish, but it is probably Boiled fish, braised in soy sauce is a waste of oil."

   "The first half of the month can be boiled, but the second half of the month may have to eat sashimi." Xu Zhengyang said: "Because we don't have enough kerosene."

   The two of them passed by here, it was inconvenient to chat outside, and they had to go to the office for some things. When Qin Tao felt emotional, Xu Zhengyang interrupted.

  Zhao Ling had a smile on her face. Judging by this appearance, she was probably sure enough.

  Xu Zhengyang had never taken the initiative before, but now, because he was next to He Qian, he started to show off. A man would only do this in front of a woman he likes.

"At that time, I remember very clearly that we carried a month's supply of staple and non-staple food, 1 kerosene stove, 1 gasification furnace, 2 lanterns, 5 kg of kerosene, 1 iron pot, 1 small aluminum pot, and 1 large aluminum pot. , 40 25kg white plastic buckets filled with water. By the way, when we were at the pier, the leader saw us off and gave us two red plums.” Xu Zhengyang said: “The amount of cigarettes is not enough to smoke. It will be gone in the second half of the month."

   "It was very difficult for us at the beginning, but now it's finally better." Qin Tao said: "There are four dishes and one soup."

"Now we still can't let go of our hands and feet. There is fresh water on Shuangsha Island and Yongshu Island, so people's lives are good. They also have specialty dishes. Yongshu Island has pickled fish, and Shuangsha Island has meat buns. For the time being, let's We can only eat what we have, beans are easy to put, we store more, if there is enough fresh water, we can also open up a vegetable field on the island, and grow what we want to eat." The cook said.

  Qin Tao nodded, fresh water, without fresh water, nothing can be done.

   "Don't worry about this, we will have enough fresh water in the future." Qin Tao said.

   When the nuclear power plant is established and there is sufficient power supply, seawater will of course be desalinated. Anyway, the electricity generated is wasted if not used. The desalination device can also adjust the peak and valley power consumption.

   "When there is enough fresh water in the future, let's also make a signature dish to make people on other islands envy them." The cook said: "Let's raise a group of ducks and have a roast duck, so that they will be greedy after hearing it."

   "Boss Qin, you are here, how about eating four dishes and one soup with us at noon?" At this time, Luo Dahai came up.

Actually, the island is such a large area. As long as you stand at the position of the lookout post, you can see everything here clearly. Of course, Luo Dahai knows where Qin Tao is. If Qin Tao wants to move around, he has to do it too. Good security work, always keep an eye on Qin Tao.

   It's noon now, so I came to look for Qin Tao.

   "Well, I'm dining with the soldiers, so there's no need to make me special." After Qin Tao finished speaking, he looked not far away.

   Just around the corner next to the cafeteria, there is a small piece of bright purple-red flowers fluttering in the wind.

   "What kind of flower is this?"

   "The nameless flower, but we call it the sun flower, which blooms in the sun." Luo Haihai said: "On the islands and reefs far away from the mainland of our motherland, only this kind of flower can survive."

  Qin Tao nodded: "Like our soldiers, they are persevering."

  This kind of flower is weak in appearance, but it blooms tenaciously in this place where the sun is high, decorating the dry islands and reefs, full of vitality and vitality.

   "That's right, they are more like our female soldiers." Luo Dahai said, "Our female soldiers are like these sunflowers."

  He Qian showed a smile on her face: "Mr. Qin, when singing before dinner, our female soldiers will sing you a song Sunflower."

  Sunflower, the song of the female soldier!

   "The sun is strong in Nansha, and the nameless flowers are more colorful. The sea breeze in Nansha is strong, and the nameless flowers are not afraid..."

Sure enough, before eating, Qin Tao heard such a majestic and high-spirited song, and was very moved: "Yes, yes, when the electricity is sufficient in the future, our Mingzhou Group will pay to install an ice cream machine on each of our islands and reefs." !"

   "Wow, Long live President Qin!" The female soldiers cheered.

Qin Tao stayed until sunset on the west mountain, no, it was sunset on the west sea, and then left Chigua Island. When he returned to Shuangsha Island, Vitalia greeted them with some dissatisfaction: "Qin, Zhao, what are you going to do today?" The place to play? Why didn't you call me?"

   "I have some business to do today." Qin Tao said.

   "Business? Can I help?"

   "Of course." Qin Tao said: "Weina, we are currently developing only Shuangsha Island. Next, we plan to make persistent efforts to make other islands and reefs into tourist attractions. How about it? Are you interested?"

   "You mean, let me develop here?"

  Qin Tao has too many things to do, and Mingzhou Group is also busy with various constructions, so now that Vitalia is idle and bored, he simply finds something for her to do.

  The preliminary work of the development is still in preparation, especially the bidding and other links have to be done slowly. However, for this kind of thing, it is enough to make an appointment, and bidding is just a process.

   "Yes, how about developing it into a tourist attraction like Madai?"

"Right now, all we attract are domestic tourists. If we want to develop and grow, we must let domestic and foreign tourists come here." Vitalia said, "It's not just about building, but also There's a stream of people."

   "Yes, do you have any good ideas?" Zhao Ling knew that Qin Tao was going to find work for Vitalia, so she came up to talk to her.

   "If our green innovation company takes over, then we will bring the jam boat. The guests on our jam boat are all very rich."

  Zhao Ling quickly shook her head: "Weina, this is not acceptable. At present, only Magang is a legal business. If you really start it, you will violate the law."

"It's not to build a blocking field here, it's still on the boat, just let the blocking boat drive over, those people not only block gambling, but also travel, come here, see the beautiful scene here, of course there are other Think about it, for example, come up and take a look, so it will naturally spread the word." Vitalia said: "I have been in the East for many years, how can I not know the laws of the East."

   This is indeed a good way, and it can quickly spark the tourism here, but...

  Forget it, why think so much, let's develop first, development is the last word.

The matter of the nuclear power plant has been confirmed. On the side of the Mingzhou Group, Dalie Mountain has also been selected as the assembly site for the nuclear reactor. Next, the offshore floating nuclear power plant will be formally assembled there. During this period of time, there are still busy things So many, before I knew it, it was already late autumn.

  On this day, Qin Tao was invited to Zhuhai.

"Mr. Qin, for this year's air show, you Mingzhou Group should be the main force for us!" Yuan Liming, the person in charge of the Zhuhai Air Show organizing unit, said to Qin Tao: "Thanks to your Mingzhou Group supporting the factory last time, Our air show has been very successful, and this time, it is still inseparable from your support."

In 1996, the first Zhuhai Air Show was held. At that time, Mingzhou Group grandly exhibited the J-31A fighter jet and became the star of the air show, attracting a large number of spectators. Two years later, the second What kind of equipment will Mingzhou Group present at the air show?

   "Of course, our Mingzhou Group has already prepared." Qin Tao said: "The scale of our exhibition this time will be twice that of the last time."

   "Really? That's really great!" Yuan Liming was very excited: "Mr. Qin, just like last time, we don't charge exhibition fees for your booth!"

  It's like opening a big shopping mall, go to KFC, McDonald's, etc. to discuss, give them the best location, let them come over, and don't charge management fees. After all, with these, there will be traffic.

  As long as Mingzhou Group participates in the air show, their air show will be more attractive, and more people will come to visit. They can earn enough money by charging tickets, but of course they cannot accept money from Mingzhou Group.

   "Okay, then we will be disrespectful." Qin Tao said: "Please leave us the best booth position, so that we can better attract attention."

   "Okay." Yuan Liming nodded, as long as the domestic aerospace department has no objections, and besides, which domestic fighter jets can compare with Mingzhou Group? This time, I will definitely bring more good things.

   "Boss Qin, I wonder what equipment you will bring?"

"This time, our vertical take-off and landing fighter will have a more exciting flight performance." Qin Tao said: "This aircraft has matured and can let outsiders see our strength. At the same time, we will also exhibit a large number of engines. "

At the time of the last exhibition, Genghis Khan Aviation had not yet been established, Mingzhou Group did not have an engine project, and now it is different, they have a variety of engines, turbofan engines for drones and trainers, unique propfan engines, and There is the largest marine gas turbine modified on the basis of a turbofan engine.

The appearance of these engines means that Mingzhou Group has a mature heart, can fly higher and sail farther. Although Mingzhou Group is a shipbuilder, these equipment are not cross-industry. Aircraft are required.

   "In addition to these, we will also join forces with our brothers to launch heavyweight drone products. This product will also let the outside world see our strength."

The highlight of this air show, of course, is the surveillance drone, which represents the arrival of a new era. The above engines, electronic equipment, and programs are all provided by Mingzhou Group. Therefore, this The star product is of course produced by Mingzhou Group and its brother units.

  Yuan Liming's eyes lit up: "Okay, we welcome you warmly. Will this drone perform at the air show?"

   "Of course, if the venue is large enough, it is also possible to perform a ground attack."

   "Drones attacking the ground?" Yuan Liming was obviously taken aback.

  Qin Tao smiled and nodded: "Of course."

  Yuan Liming took a few deep breaths, and finally gave up: "Forget it, this is too dangerous, let the drone take off and land with weapons to perform."

At an air show, accidents may happen just by performing a performance. Of course, the people who hold the air show should focus on safety. What if the crowd attacks?

  Even if the Mingzhou Group has never made any mistakes, Yuan Liming still dare not take risks. He didn't want any accident to become an international joke, and Zhuhai Air Show's reputation would plummet, and he had no choice but to end it.

   "By the way, Mr. Qin, our international air show not only has aviation equipment, but also aerospace equipment. Should your starship company also exhibit some equipment?"

   "Of course, the Starship Company will definitely exhibit." Qin Tao said: "This exhibition will not only include rockets, but also models of spaceships."

  Spaceship!

Dongfang's Shenzhou spacecraft has carried out unmanned launches several times, but has not yet carried out manned launches. This fully demonstrates how huge a project manned spaceflight is. The Shenzhou spacecraft is only flying around the earth. Starship's spacecraft, but To fly to Mars.

  So, upon hearing what Qin Tao said, Yuan Liming also looked forward to it. The spaceship exhibited by the Starship Company will also become the focus of everyone's attention. After all, their innovative spirit is unparalleled.

  Speaking of which, it's time to visit Qiongzhou, which is not far from Zhuhai anyway, to see what surprises Max brings to himself.

   Starfleet, Max is throwing a tantrum.

"What's going on? Haven't our spaceships been designed yet? We're going to show off the strength of our starship company at the 2nd Zhuhai Air Show. Last time we showed rockets. How can you show our spaceships this time?" So much delay?"

"Max, this is research on a manned spacecraft, not a toy. You should know that in the previous unit, it took us five to ten years to develop a brand new manned spacecraft. Now, we have only used it for a year. It's just time.” Frank Rubio, the person in charge of the manned spacecraft, said with some dissatisfaction: “Now, you actually asked us to take out the entity, how is that possible?”

   Rubio was a former space shuttle designer who was recruited by Max to design a new spacecraft. He was very satisfied with this task, but he was very dissatisfied with Max's powerful style.

   THIS IS NOT A DESIGN TOY, THIS IS A SERIOUS SPACE SHIP!

  Any slight mistake may lead to the failure of research and development, causing astronauts to spill blood into space!

   "We are a private aerospace company, unlike those bureaucratic state agencies, if we cannot produce results as soon as possible, it means that we will lose the confidence of the public, and no one will invest in us!"

   Max almost shouted: "We must let the public know that we are the most powerful aerospace company in the world. We can do what others cannot do!"

   At this moment, someone came in from outside: "What is this researching? So lively?"

   Max looked over and saw a familiar figure.

"Qin, you are finally here. We are preparing for this air show project. We plan to send our spaceship out to play the main role. However, until now, our spaceship has not completed the design drawing, let alone the prototype. The spaceship is gone, no matter what we do, we must catch up with the schedule."

   "It's a crazy plan." Rubio shook his head.

   "So, can I listen to the overall design of our spaceship first?" Qin Tao also participated.

"Of course." Max said: "At present, we have successfully completed the first launch of Starship MK1 and successfully sent the payload into orbit. Therefore, our next goal is to design a manned spacecraft on top of Starship MK1. According to our plan, commercial launches will be carried out to allow those rich people to experience life in space, so that they can better obtain development funds. Each seat can sell for at least 50 million US dollars. After all, the spaceship seats of the Russians are also In terms of 70 to 80 million US dollars, ours is cheaper, this spacecraft is planned to install 7 seats, and can accommodate up to six tourists, so that we can earn 300 million US dollars for one launch.”

  Max has to try his best to make money. It is not enough to rely on the Mingzhou Group for blood transfusions. They must have the ability to balance themselves. Now, these ideas put forward by Max are very profitable. Unfortunately, his staff is not strong enough to allow him to complete the ideas.

"Eastern development of manned spaceflight started in 1992, and has not carried out real manned launches until now. They are the power of the whole country. We only have the strength of one company, and we started last year. How can we exceed the progress of the East? ?” Rubio said, this is simply an outsider leading an insider!

   "Since this is the case, maybe we can change it." Qin Tao said: "Manned spacecraft is very difficult. If we don't develop a manned spacecraft, what if we develop a cargo spacecraft first?"

  Cargo ship?

   Several people are a little curious.

   "Mr. Qin, we are preparing for the final landing on Mars. We want to send people up. The first thing we need to solve is the problem of carrying people, and the problem of transporting goods will come later." Max was a little dissatisfied.

"However, we can't land on Mars with the current rocket. We need to wait for the follow-up development. Landing on Mars is so far away. Now we need to go step by step, don't we?" Qin Tao said: "Max, let's design the rocket first. Cargo spacecraft, wait until the spacecraft is successful, and then develop into a manned spacecraft, it should be safer and more reliable? Besides, if we participate in the space station program, we also need cargo spacecraft.”

"A cargo spacecraft doesn't need various life support systems, nor does it need to have extremely high safety. With the current technology, we can completely make a full-state model. There is no problem in participating in the air show." Rubio also expressed his opinion.

"Okay, let's start with the cargo spaceship first, but until the next airshow, we must have a manned spaceship!" Max let go, he is a paranoid guy, but at the same time he also knows that he wants to promote In this kind of project, compromises must be made.

   PS: Xu Zhengyang's daughter-in-law is Qian'er, it's just He Qian's Qian'er.
