"I can't wait. But what you should pay the most attention to is the college entrance examination results. Now the investigation team has arrived at our base, and the secret personnel will accompany them to investigate in the school. Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai.

"Didn't you say you didn't need to pay attention to them?"

"Besides, you didn't cheat, what are you afraid of? Why did he give you zero points? Anyway, now they can't destroy the paper or anything. Zheng Yucheng absolutely believes in Xie Kai.

In particular, this matter involves more than 20 children of the base.

The children who grew up in the 404 base are definitely red and professional, with high consciousness, and they are also simple people, so they will not do this kind of thing at all.

"Don't the teachers take vacations?" Xie Kai asked.

In the past two days, my parents were scared because of his cheating, and he thought about it for a while, and there was no problem.

"Also, what about Mozi and the others?"

"We're already on the way back, and we don't need to use a plane to pick them up, anyway, the investigation team has a lot of time, so what are you afraid of? It's them, not us, who are anxious. Zheng Yucheng doesn't take Xie Kai seriously at all now. "Don't take them seriously, just do your own thing. Let's go, eat, and listen to the progress of the Yunshi modification work in the afternoon, this project was originally done by you. ”

Before, he wished that Xie Kai had no results, but looking at Xie Kai's performance in the past few days, he didn't have that kind of idea.

"......" Xie Kai was speechless.

The old guy is shameless.

Obviously, he didn't know anything about getting back the Yunshi project with various problems, thinking that it would soon produce benefits, but it turned out that this thing was a pit.

At noon, the two of them casually dealt with each other in the cafeteria and ate something, and Xie Kai learned that Wang Guilin helped him contact the equipment.

Getting the military to offer used old tanks in exchange for their 359 tanks is also one of the conditions.

Gold is in the hand, and if the weapon is not delivered as soon as possible, it will not be easy to trade later.

"Mr. Ma, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm getting younger and younger!" It wasn't until more than two o'clock in the afternoon that Ma Fengshan and the others came back.

The base is very close to the airport, and it is the first time in China to see a transport aircraft like the Il-76, and the people of the Yun-10 team want to understand all aspects clearly, but the time is too short, and they can only understand a rough idea, so they reluctantly get off the plane in the urging.

"That Il-76 is ours?" Ma Fengshan is now full of red light, which is completely different from the original time and space transport ten times and depressed all day long.

The modification work of Yun-10 is progressing very quickly, after all, everyone really wants to make a large aircraft with excellent quality and superior performance.

"Yes, in the future, as long as there is no flight mission, you can all study this aircraft. Those Soviet pilots, ground crews, can communicate with them. Xie Kai smiled and nodded. "Let's talk about Yun Ten first. ”

How Yun Shi is now, Xie Kai is not too clear.

Since the Yunshi team was accepted by the 404, it has been carrying out the modification design.

Even if the flight life is not high, it is still in production, and the cost of the problem does not need to be considered by technical personnel at all, and the progress is not slow.

"Yun 10 modification design, now the main work is the design of early warning aircraft, this piece, taking into account the domestic radar system, etc., we are not progressing fast. "Ma Lao first talked about the AWACS aircraft.

The Air Force needs early warning aircraft, the range of the Y-8 is too short, plus the domestic avionics system, radar technology, etc. are all out of backward status, and there is no experience in the design of early warning aircraft before, and there is no reference to it, and the progress is not fast, but it is understandable.

"As for the design of the Yunshi wide-body machine, the current drawing design stage is about to be completed, and the rest is to carry out wind tunnel tests, etc., so in terms of funds, the demand may be relatively high. Ma Lao looked at Zheng Yucheng, then at Xie Kai, and put forward the need for funds.

"How much does it need?" Zheng Yucheng is most afraid of the Yunshi team asking for money.

Only now did I really realize why Xie Kai said that Yun Shi was a gold-swallowing monster at the beginning.

Any modification, the design stage does not need much, as long as it enters the experimental period, the cost is like running water.

And it's all smashed in, and you can't see any benefit.

"About eighty million. ”

Zheng Yucheng gasped.

The corners of Bai Yanjun and the others' mouths twitched, "Why do you want so much?"

"The modified wide-body passenger aircraft needs to be manufactured for wind tunnel testing, and it is also necessary to manufacture prototypes for ground static load tests...... etc.," Cheng explained from time to time.

"Didn't you only allocate 50 million before, and it was used up so quickly?" Yang Qian was suddenly unhappy, "Your project is currently the most expensive to consume." There is simply no such budget this year. ”

As the Minister of Finance, Yang Qian now has a lot of power.

If she can't be convinced, she will never sign it, and no one will be able to receive money from the finance department.

Of course, Yang Qian herself can't support a project.

"Minister Yang, the previous 50 million had to be used for the Yun 10 modification on one side, and didn't we produce another Yun 10?" Cheng hurriedly explained from time to time.

The production of airplanes is a costly project.

"What's going on with that Yun Ten now?" Xie Kai asked with a frown.

It's already the third Yun 10.

The flight life of the second Yun-10 was only more than 300 hours, and it has not been long since it was produced, and now it has begun to produce a new Yun-10, why don't you know?

"What's the situation? After the production of the previous one was completed, they applied for another one, and Director Zheng was arrogant and directly approved 50 million. Yang Qian was obviously dissatisfied with this matter.

At the beginning, Zheng Yucheng nodded, and the rest of the management committee did not object.

"Didn't we say that we would only produce one plane for test flights to obtain experimental data? Although we now have a lot of funds, we have a big business and a big spread, and we are all big money-consumers. Xie Kai's dissatisfaction has reached his face.

Is it easy to earn some money on your own?

They were all risking their lives to make money, and as a result, a third prototype was produced.

The first Yun-10 used for flight tests has been completely scrapped and is now parked at the airport outside the Qinfei factory.

"That's a new model. Now it has just been put into production, and both the range and the load capacity have been increased by about 20% compared with the original model. Cheng saw Xie Kai's objection from time to time, and hurriedly said, "It is also used for experiments, but the service life is much higher than the previous two." ”

"How many hours?"

“600。 Ma Fengshan's voice was a little bitter, "If you are not in a hurry, wait for the big press to be put into production, and the landing gear, aircraft girders, etc. will be forged with a large press, and the flight life will reach at least 3,000 hours." ”

"Why don't you wait for the big press? Now the big press should have started to enter the production period of key parts, right?" Xie Kai asked.

The large press is the first major investment project in the base.

Zheng Yucheng originally wanted to go up to 65,000 tons, but in the end, for insurance, he still went up 45,000 tons, and most of the funds have already been out.

"On the second side, the main beam cast before had too many casting defects, after the rough machining was completed, the flaw detection results came out, and finally scrapped, and now the double is making every effort to solve the casting ......process of hundreds of tons of large forgings," Zheng Yucheng explained to Xie Kai, "If you wait, I don't know when you have to wait." ”

"Wasted?" Xie Kai had never thought about this question.

"Scrapped, hundreds of tons of molten steel, all become scrap. Even re-furnace is very troublesome, too big, and now they are lost in the workshop, not knowing how to solve it. Zheng Yucheng nodded.

For large parts of several hundred tons, the casting defects are too large, and the structural strength will naturally have problems.

It will not only affect the quality of the whole equipment, but also be prone to major accidents.

Once the middle girder is broken......

No one dared to think about the consequences.

"Do we bear the loss?" Xie Kai asked.

Yang Qian shook her head, "We only pay the part we should pay, and they pay for the tuition themselves." ”

"Double funding is relatively small, so until now, it has not been produced. So we have to rush them. Zheng Yucheng said, "Let's talk about the plane." ”

Whether it is the main girder and overall frame structural parts of a large aircraft, or the overall turbine disc of the engine, or the landing gear of a large aircraft, all of these are waiting for the big press.

Now the question is, why do you want to produce a new one when you know that the quality of a large aircraft cannot be guaranteed and its service life is not long.

There are big problems with the management of the base.

"Why produce?" Xie Kai was a little angry. "We do look very well funded right now. After the production of this 45,000-ton press, 65,000 tons will be launched; the test flight of the Chao-7 project has already begun, and the funds required for the modification have increased exponentially; without the modification, the 200 engines will become a pile of waste products; can the new generation of engines be handled? There is also a new generation of tactical missiles with a range of 600 kilometers...... Xie Kai listed all the items that need to consume funds.

Not to mention that there are many more projects that you want to get involved in.

Once the Varyag returns, the funds needed will be in the tens of billions.

Carrier-based fighters, too, are huge expenses.

All the costs are borne by the 404, and in the current situation, it can't be supported at all.

In particular, I originally thought that Pakistan was going to invest in the Super Seven Project, and there were not many places where the base paid money, at most it was paid in advance, but I didn't know that the funds had not been recovered until now.

Xie Kai ordered two hundred engines by himself, and in such a situation, he had to find a way to sell the super seven.

How do you know that Zheng Yucheng and others invested in the project without considering the consequences at all.

"On the one hand, that one is used for continued flight tests, and on the other hand, it is also used for early warning aircraft tests...... Zheng Yucheng feels that he is too loser.

But there is no way around it.

"Xie Kai, you go out with me first. Zheng Yucheng said to Xie Kai.

If this continues, the whole meeting will not be able to proceed.

"The Air Force needs it, shouldn't they invest money?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng, "The military can't always treat us as Kaizi, but we can scrape the oil hard." ”

If I had known, I wouldn't have given the tank.
