When Chen Geng met Comrade Vladimir again, Comrade Vladimir specially mentioned to Chen Geng the scientific research center he was planning to build, and made a suggestion: "Mr. Fernández, can your scientific research center expand the scope of cooperation with Russian scientific research units?"

"Oh, what do you mean by this?" Chen Geng was a little curious.

Comrade Vladimir said: "For example, the Computing Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. ”

Chen Geng suddenly realized: It turned out to be this.

As we all know, Russia's level of computer and mathematics is very good, and as early as the 50s, the Soviet Union established the Computing Center of the USSR Academy of Sciences, which is a specialized research institution of the Russian Academy of Sciences engaged in computing methods, software and hardware design, mathematical modeling, mathematics and computer program software, computer technology, science and technology and other application fields, and in the 60s, the Computing Center of the USSR Academy of Sciences issued one of the world's top computer science journals before the collapse of the Soviet Union: Journal of Computational Mathematics and Mathematical Physics, it can be said that the level of the Computing Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences represents the top level of Russia in the field of computers.

And the purpose of Comrade Vladimir's proposal for this cooperation is also very simple, that is, under the current situation that Russia's economy is extremely difficult and there are no obvious signs of improvement in the short term, he hopes to ensure Russia's scientific research level in the field of computer science by Chen Geng -- in order to ensure that Russia's computer level will not fall too far behind under such a difficult economic situation, Comrade Vladimir has really tried everything he can.

Chen Geng didn't agree immediately, but after a little hesitation, he made a not very clear response: "I need to go to the computing center of your academy of sciences to inspect before I can decide." ”

When Comrade Vladimir heard this, he happily agreed: "Of course there is no problem. ”

Chen Geng paused for a moment, and then spoke to Comrade Vladimir: "Speaking of which, Comrade Vladimir, I also have something to discuss with you on my side. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"You know," Chen Geng said, "I have a defense contracting company, and this defense contracting company is now assisting the U.S. military in warfare in Afghanistan. ”

"Yes, I know. Comrade Vladimir nodded, how could he not know, this guy also rented a batch of Il-76 transport planes, An-12 transport planes and Mi-17 high-prototype transport planes from Russia, it is said that these planes are now almost not resting except for maintenance, almost spinning, I don't know how much money this bastard has made.

Thinking of this, Comrade Vladimir couldn't help but wonder in his heart: could it be that this guy is ready to lease some planes from Russia again?

"At the beginning, the Yak-130 training aircraft jointly developed by me and the Yakovlev Design Bureau has never participated in actual combat, right?" Chen Geng said to Comrade Vladimir with a smile: "Comrade Vladimir, have you ever thought about letting this aircraft go to Afghanistan to participate in actual combat? If it can achieve some success on the battlefield in Afghanistan, it will still be very helpful for the international sales of this aircraft, and you know that this aircraft also has a carrier-based model. ”

Well...... Well?!

Comrade Vladimir really hadn't thought about this question before, but now when he heard Chen Geng say this, he suddenly reacted: Yes, why not take this opportunity to let the Yak-130 participate in actual combat, that is, to take advantage of the fact that the whole world is paying attention to this war, and let the Yak-130 advertise in front of the whole world?

You know, the Yak-130 is not only a jet advanced trainer aircraft, at the beginning of the design, it was designed as a jet advanced trainer aircraft and carrier-based supersonic light fighter, although the power of this aircraft is weak, in actual combat only fly to the maximum speed of Mach 1.4 without loading, only the maximum speed of Mach 1.2 in the case of two close-range combat bombs, if it is hung in two nearly four air-to-air missiles, the maximum speed can not reach supersonic speed, but this is not important, the important thing is that the Yak-130 is the world's first carrier-based two-seat light fighter designed in full accordance with the standards of the third generation fighterIsn't this an airplane fragrant to those countries that have aircraft carriers, but have never regarded the United States as an adversary?

And as long as the Yak-130 has so many outstanding performances in these battles, then OK, and still worry about not attracting customers?

Comrade Vladimir's heart was suddenly moved.

For Russia, which is now in a very difficult economy, even if it can only sell 2 squadrons of Yak-130, this fund is extremely important for Russia.

His heart was moved, but he still forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, and asked Chen Geng, "Mr. Fernandez, do you think it's okay?"

"I can't think of any reason why not," Chen Geng spread his hands and looked at Comrade Vladimir with a smile: "Sir, you should know that I know very well the performance of this aircraft, and my COMAC Group in Huaxia is even producing this series of aircraft, in fact, if it weren't for the Huaxia government's disagreement to let this aircraft appear on the battlefield in Afghanistan because of various concerns, I wouldn't even make this suggestion to you." ”

I see!

At this point, what else does Comrade Vladimir not understand?

Fernandez Chen must have approached the Huaxia government before, hoping that the Huaxia government would agree to let their own Yak-130 appear on the battlefield in Afghanistan, that is, let the Huaxia-produced Yak-130 work for Fernandez Chen's defense contracting company, but the Huaxia government rejected Fernandez Chen's proposal because of such and such concerns.

Comrade Vladimir is too familiar with Huaxia, after Chen Geng said this, he knew that Huaxia's refusal was completely possible and normal, and Fernández Chen was also forced to find Russia - the Yak-130 project was jointly developed by the Yakovlev Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union and the Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Industry Group. Chen's Yak-130 produced by Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Industry Group can be regarded as a side advertisement, isn't it?

Thinking of this, Comrade Vladimir already agreed in his heart, but his cautious personality made him not agree immediately, but after a moment of silence, he replied: "There are many factors involved in this question, and I need to discuss it with my cabinet." ”

Chen Geng smiled and nodded: "Of course." ”
