Chapter 357 No planes are safe these days

William White finished his script in the study, and although he didn't have red sleeves, he had a very comfortable time.

There were two knocks on the door, and William White was a little curious about who would disturb him at this time.

"Come in, um, Xiaohu, what's the matter?"

"Boss, the space shuttle has fallen, and our satellite program may be delayed. ”

William White was a little sluggish, he seemed to have forgotten a very important historical event.

"Challenger?"

"Tsk, you wait a minute. ”

In his opinion, NASA's management is very rubbish, and even if nothing happens this time, sooner or later there will be problems. Knowing that the weather was too cold, he actually had to forcibly launch it, which already belonged to the category of serious dereliction of duty, and it was difficult for the gods to save it.

"Barry, did you see the news?"

"Yes, boss. ”

"Don't worry about anything else, the style of the show should be sad, stop the entertainment program, well, it's three days. ”

"Got it, boss. ”

Decisions like this may be the only one he can make, and no one else can overstep his bounds. William White's media reacted quickly, and all entertainment pages were withdrawn.

Well, there aren't many people who do this in the United States, not to mention the space shuttle, even if the president hangs up, it's time to sing and sing, and to dance.

William White really knew that he couldn't do this, and in just one day, more than 85% of the people in the United States knew about the tragedy. In terms of timeliness, this is almost comparable to the news of the outbreak of World War II.

Most importantly, the crew members who died in this accident were not only women, but also a teacher. Emotionally speaking, astronauts are basically the same as soldiers, although they will also grieve, but they will not cry out to the sky and the earth.

"What's NBC's promotional tone?"

"Condolences and remembrance. ”

"Didn't blame NASA?"

"No, do we need to change?"

"No, we have our own style. ”

Seeing Murdoch's resolute attitude, it was difficult for his subordinates to say anything, after all, that old guy only cared about ratings.

In fact, Murdoch's approach is the norm in the United States, and everyone actually does it.

However, this world is often like that, and there is no harm without comparison. There is still a significant part of the audience that has expressed dissatisfaction.

Well, the old guy doesn't really care, he is a businessman first, and then a businessman in the United States. This is his faith, and no one else has anything to blame.

Many people underestimate the impact of this incident, because of this accident, the manned space journey of the United States was interrupted for a long time. NASA also carried out a big blood change, and almost all of the guys who were in the corpse position were out.

"Filson, is there any news from Boeing?"

"It is estimated that the problem is not big, and the current **oss is probably not in the mood to change cars. ”

"Alas, no planes are reliable now, has my one been overhauled?"

"It's all overhauled, the footbasin of the plane, they should be to save maintenance costs. ”

", they're taking the blame for Boeing, which can carry 488 passengers at a time, you tell me, what company will save costs?"

"Also, with a seventy percent occupancy rate, the airline will make money, and it won't care about the price of spare parts, and the manager in charge of maintenance is a little wronged. ”

"Alas, these guys are unreasonable, and it seems that the problem cannot be solved without someone of equal strength opening his belly. If nothing else, it's another backstabber. "Filson doesn't have much to say, this guy must be like that. If he doesn't die, the owner of the Footbasin Airlines will have to wipe his neck.

"A plane of 200 million US dollars?"

"Yes, it should be more than that, this guy's requirements seem to be much higher than **OSS. ”

"Hehe, enviable boy, if the old man orders this plane, the board of directors will definitely turn the sky upside down. ”

"Recently, the plane has been falling, and it is estimated that he is also frightened, and his special plane is not used much, but this time it has been completely overhauled. ”

"Alas, don't say he's worried, I'm just as worried, all the company's planes are taken for maintenance. Nima, the space shuttle is not reliable, you don't expect civil aircraft to be much better. ”

Later generations of aircraft management were very strict, especially after 911, and they were eager to strip you naked before letting you board.

This era?

It's okay to smoke on a plane, can you believe it?

In fact, it took 2,000 years for many airlines to ban smoking. Older airplanes have ashtrays on the armrests.

(Absolutely not blowing, the author has personal experience, but you are not allowed to run around, you can smoke in the last few rows, and the exhaust vents on both sides are obviously a little charred.) Hehe, it proves that it's not buddy who doesn't have a sense of morality. )

Now, if you dare to secretly hide a lighter, you may be taught a lesson.

Lao Mei obviously had a bad start this year, and this launch at the beginning of the new year was supposed to show its strength, but it turned out to be a mess.

As for Maozi, people are quite unimpressed, and their accidents are simply uncountable.

Accident?

Thinking of Maozi's accident, William White couldn't help but stand on end. It seems that this year, Maozi's nuclear power plant burst out, which is much more serious than the accident of the space shuttle.

William White's aircraft order still makes Boeing very happy. The footbasin fell a 747-200, which really made many customers suspicious.

Others have doubts, but William White does not. In his memory, the 747 seems to have dropped one, and the quality is still very reliable.

After all, four engines are more reliable than two. In more extreme cases, as long as one engine is still working, the plane can fly back.

"William, are you going to give your boss eye medicine?" said Xiao Bushu with a playful face.

"Cut, who's going to be impatient to pay attention to him, it's just a coincidence. Seriously, the footbasin of that plane, I never think it's a maintenance problem. ”

"You're not so timid, are you?"

"Nonsense, and my plane is the same model, you say I'm worried or not. My yacht hasn't been built yet, otherwise, my buddy would have taken a boat everywhere he went. ”

Little Bushu was speechless, he could hear that William White was really afraid. For a standard cowboy, a little ridicule is also a must.

As for the quality of what William White said, he really can't refute it. A very simple common sense is, if the cause of the accident is determined so quickly, can you pinch it or not?

"Hehe, the kid's truth is right, and it's true that the maintenance is not done well, they don't have the courage to hide it. ”

"Is that so?" said little Bushu, skeptical of his own words.

"You have to know that there is nothing to hide when there is a hidden danger, at most it is to lose money, if it is deliberately concealed, it is of another nature, not only may there be imprisonment, but also may go bankrupt directly. Who would be so stupid?"

What Lao Bushu said is indeed very reasonable. Because the law of the United States is like this, if it is indeed an accident, then there is nothing to say about fixing it. If it is deliberately concealed by people, then congratulations, it will definitely punish you for doubting your life.

Because of such laws, U.S. companies are usually happy to admit their mistakes. Because mistakes can be forgiven.
