Chapter 156: The Ship-to-Air Missile Research Institute that was cut off from food (the third update)
Meng Jianye had long known that Qin Wentong was also coming to the shipbuilding industry exhibition, but he also knew that Professor Qin had many relatives and friends, and he must have come to Zhongdu to socialize, so he didn't take the initiative to disturb.
I thought that I would go to see this handsome old man who loves to teach big lectures in two days, but I didn't expect to meet him here, so I hurriedly greeted: "Professor Qin, I really didn't expect to see you here, come and have a cup of tea!"
Qin Wentong was entangled by the old horse in front of him, as soon as he heard someone call him, he immediately rushed down as if he had seen a relative, which Cheng wanted him to go, and the old horse also followed, so he ran and chased and came to Meng Jianye's booth.
Seeing this, Meng Jianye only looked confused, and said in his heart, what are these two doing?
Qin Wentong saw that he really couldn't hide, so he simply didn't hide, so he pointed to the old horse behind him and introduced: "This is Ma Zhenjiang, a researcher at the Ship-to-Air Missile Research Institute. ”
As he spoke, he pointed at Meng Jianye: "Lao Ma, this is Meng Jianye, the assistant director of the Endeavor Factory that I often mention to you." ”
"Hello, Researcher Ma!"
"Hello!"
Compared with Meng Jianye's enthusiasm, Ma Zhenjiang seemed a little absent-minded, and after shaking hands perfunctorily, he approached Professor Qin and said with a flattering face: "Old Qin, who can stand by and watch, can't you, in the labor camp back then, who added an extra spoonful of rice to your bowl every day? And who sheared the wool of the production team in winter to make you wool shoulders?"
This is the so-called digging social ~~~~ ism rice bowl, and social ~~~~ism wool? Meng Jianye thought to himself.
However, Qin Wentong did not have such a leisurely atmosphere as Meng Jianye, but frowned and said helplessly: "But I know that your old horse helped me a lot during that period, and I am also very grateful, but what you are doing is not something I can handle at all, didn't I take you to meet Gong Shuangqin of the General Staff Armament Department yesterday, haven't you negotiated yet?"
"If the negotiation is completed, what are you looking for? To be honest, Director Gong also thinks that it is not appropriate to cut our project like this, but he can't be the master, Lao Qin, I know that you have a lot of old and well-connected, so you will help me find the head of the position, okay?"
"Oh, I know a lot of people, but they are all engaged in shipbuilding, how can I know the decision-making heads of ministries and commissions?" Qin Wentong was forced to cry by Ma Zhenjiang.
And Ma Zhenjiang was about to cry, almost with tears in his eyes: "We are engaged in ship-to-air missiles, and we originally used warships as a platform, how many of your ships are involved, please help me, okay?"
Qin Wentong was really going crazy, so he raised his head and sighed, and then asked Meng Jianye: "Xiao Meng, how much can the Han'e Shipyard get in the first quarter?"
"Uh...... That's about 300,000!"
"300,000, in the name of the Han'e Shipyard, I will fund your 300,000. ”
Meng Jianye was a little stunned, he didn't expect Qin Wentong to wave his hand, and he didn't want 300,000 yuan, but what made Meng Jianye even more stunned was Ma Zhenjiang's reaction, I saw that the old man didn't wait for Professor Qin to finish speaking, he stood up and said angrily at Professor Qin: "Qin Wentong, what do you mean? Do you think I want money? I want a project!"
If I want money, I just need to resign and go abroad, and I will casually ask for hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
It is said that we might as well buy tea eggs if we engage in missiles, but if we don't stick to the moment when we engage in missiles, when the enemy hits the doorstep, you can take tea and eggs on top!"
After speaking, Ma Zhenjiang flicked his sleeves and left angrily.
And because of the quarrel here, there are already a lot of people around, many of whom are foreign shipowners who visit the exhibition, pointing at this place from time to time.
Qin Wentong didn't expect Ma Zhenjiang to be so excited, he didn't come back for a while, he just sat there in a daze, and Meng Jianye's head was still dizzy, so he quickly came forward to explain in English, and then pulled Qin Wentong to the lounge behind.
It was only at this time that Qin Wentong came back to his senses and sighed: "This old horse...... Alas, I'm sorry for him!"
Saying that, Qin Wen's eyes were full of tears, Meng Jianye wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know how to persuade him, because at this time he was also a mess, so he could only take out a handkerchief and hand it to Qin Wentong.
Qin Wentong seemed to be really sad, wiped the tears from his eyes with a handkerchief, and talked about the past between him and Lao Ma.
Meng Jianye listened silently, and finally got a general idea of Ma Zhenjiang's entanglement with Professor Qin.
Originally, Ma Zhenjiang was one of the participants in the "Hongqi" 41 air defense missile project in his early years, but later due to the needs of national defense construction, especially the increasingly prominent shortcomings of the navy's air defense, the military industry department at that time changed the "Hongqi" 41 air defense missile project to the missile project.
In addition, under the air defense missile research and development unit, a ship-to-air missile research institute has been set up to take overall responsibility for the development of the navy's ship-to-air missile.
Originally, everything was fine, but the sudden special period disrupted the ship-to-air missile development plan, and it was not easy to wait until the end of the special period to see that the ship-to-air missile development work was about to resume.
Reducing armament production and stressing the need for the armed forces to be patient has completely frozen the development of ship-to-air missiles like a cold wind, although the new leadership of the navy has since focused on the direction of the navy's future development and has done its utmost to help maintain the development process of ship-to-air missiles.
However, after all, the Navy's military spending is limited, so that the research and development funds have been intermittent and dragged on for several years, and the progress of the ship-to-air missile project has not been great.
Regardless of the performance of the missile, at least in the process of development, we have accumulated experience, tempered the team, and integrated supporting manufacturers, which can be regarded as a kind of great progress, and at least when developing the next generation of ship-to-air missiles, we can avoid many detours.
However, the tragic thing is that just when the ship-to-air missile project reached a critical juncture, China and France reached a package of arms sales agreements, including France's "Sidewinder" ship-to-air missile deal.
The ship-to-air missile project, which had not yet completed its research and development work, suddenly became a chicken rib, and even the new leading body of the navy, which had persisted, gave up hope of continuing the research and development.
Ma Zhenjiang actually looked for Qin Wentong in the hope that Qin Wentong could use his connections to continue his ship-to-air missile project, but no matter how great Qin Wentong's energy is, there is nothing he can do when it comes to the pure military industry of missiles.
