Chapter 1077: The Majestic Boeing Factory

If you come to Seattle, you'll immediately love it because of its tranquil scenery, and if you know Seattle, you'll be immediately impressed by its business wonders.

Seattle is not a vast area, its area can even be measured in a day and a half, but it is known as the most suitable place for multinational companies to "build a capital", and it is also said to be the city with the most headquarters of the world's top 500 companies.

The most prestigious Fortune 500 companies headquartered in Seattle are Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks, and where Lin Cheng will soon arrive, Boeing.

Boeing in Everett, after getting off the airport about half an hour to drive, today Boeing in order to welcome Lin Cheng's visit, it can be regarded as a big effort, not only have planes and flights to arrange pick-up, even the car has chosen the most luxurious Cadillac sedan.

When he came to Everett, the staff of Boeing did not take Lin Cheng to see his flying palace for the first time, but proudly invited Lin Cheng to visit the Boeing factory.

Lin Cheng is an old dog, and naturally he also has some big industrial feelings for science and engineering men, so he happily nodded and agreed, but Nicole Kidman came in high heels, so Lin Cheng asked her to wait in the lounge.

First of all, the staff took Lin Cheng to the Boeing Museum, which houses the 84-year history of Boeing since its establishment in 1916, and the staff took Lin Cheng to an old and antique Boeing 707.

The history of the Boeing model began in the 50s with the 707, which was the first four-jet engine to start a civil airliner and the world's first commercially successful civil airliner.

With the success of the 707, Boeing took charge of the production of bull ears for nearly half a century, and then developed various models of 7X7 jet airliners. The 707 was the first airliner capable of crossing the Atlantic, and the swept wing and downdraft engines found in all commercial airliners today were the first to appear on the 707.

To date, Boeing has produced a total of 1,010 707 airliners, and the production line was closed in 1991 and is now history.

Boeing 707 is already a thing of the past, and now the protagonist of Boeing is 777, Boeing 777 adopts a circular fuselage design, and the landing gear has a total of 14 tires, which is a twin-engine medium and long-range wide-body passenger aircraft developed by Boeing.

The Boeing 777 is between the Boeing 767-300 and the Boeing 747-400 in terms of specifications, and its engines are used by two well-known brands, Rolls-Royce and General Motors.

Under the guidance of the staff, Lin Cheng also visited the Rolls-Royce engine, Lin Cheng did not expect that in addition to the luxury cars famous all over the world, Rolls-Royce is also one of the two major engine suppliers of Boeing, a car manufacturer that can produce aircraft engines, and its car speed can of course be very high, for example, the maximum speed of the Rolls-Royce Phantom can reach 250 kilometers per hour.

The Boeing 777 is too important for Boeing, and when the development began that year, Boeing's president said that if the 777 development fails, it will be the end of Boeing.

Well, the president of Boeing seems to have said this sentence many times, and he said it when he developed the Boeing 747 before, and then when he developed the Boeing 787.

As an entrepreneur, Lin Cheng certainly understands why the president of Boeing said this, in the ancient art of war, isn't there Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, who broke the cauldron and sunk the boat, put him to death and then live, and the American imperialist is not stupid, although he may not know the allusion of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat and putting it to death and then being born, but the approach is the same.

The reality is often less pessimistic, and the Boeing 777 has received huge orders under the company's strong propaganda offensive, especially from China, with 116 Boeing 777 aircraft sold to China alone, and the transaction capital reached $35 billion.

Moreover, Boeing has a very good relationship with the US imperialist government, and every time the US imperialist president visits China, Boeing always has a business representative accompanying him, so we can always see the trade agreements after the visit to China, and we can always see the large contracts for the purchase of Boeing planes by several major Chinese airlines.

Compared with the peasants of US imperialism, perhaps Boeing is the one who most hopes that Sino-US relations will always be in the honeymoon period, and the money that Boeing earns in the Chinese market is definitely the most money made by US imperialist companies in China.

After visiting the Boeing Museum, the next thing is the final assembly plant of Boeing, from the outside, the assembly plant is not much different from the bungalow factory in Pengcheng Shekou Industrial Zone, it is nothing more than higher and bigger.

Just entering the gate of the assembly plant, Lin Cheng was shocked by the surging momentum of the factory, according to the staff, the area of the assembly plant is equivalent to seven and a half standard football fields, and has applied for the Guinness World Records, is the world's largest factory.

In this factory, even as a reborn person, Lin Cheng, who is extremely proud and arrogant in his heart, feels his insignificance as a mortal in front of the majestic industry.

"At the current final assembly plant in Everett, ten Boeing 777 airliners can be assembled in a month, about one every three days, which is undoubtedly very fast, because the 777 is assembled from more than 6 million parts!" the staff proudly explained.

Obviously, the staff enjoyed Lin Cheng's shocked expression, after all, Lin Cheng was the richest man in the world, and it was not someone who could pretend to be forced in front of Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng can understand the excitement of the staff, after all, Boeing is one of the greatest pride of the United States, and he did not express any disgust at this.

If China's large aircraft manufacturing can also be at the level of Boeing, Lin Cheng will be so proud in front of foreigners.

Fortunately, China's high-speed rail has also made the Chinese people proud, this is the first time in the Chinese to overwhelm foreigners in the field of high-tech industry, well, there is also the world's largest Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao cross-sea bridge, which is also a huge pride of the Chinese people.

In the field of land and sea, China's large industry has successively caught up with and surpassed European and American countries, and I hope that in the near future, our country can also catch up with Europe and the United States in the air field, so that Chinese people will become more and more proud in front of foreigners.

"Mr. Lin, next, let's take a look at the Boeing 747-400 that you have asked for, good guys, it is a true flying palace, I believe you will be very satisfied. The staff said in a shocked tone.

"Alright, I'll call Nicole along. Lin Cheng has been looking forward to his big plane for a whole year, and of course such a good thing has to be shared with the woman he likes.

After Lin Cheng and Nicole Kidman converged, they were led by the staff to a huge warehouse, the staff pressed the sliding switch, the warehouse door slowly rose, and soon, a huge guy appeared in everyone's eyes.

The staff introduced: "Mr. Lin, according to your requirements, the appearance of the aircraft has not changed much, and it is not much different from the Boeing 747 technology in civil aviation. But the Boeing 747-400 uses more than 50 percent composite materials, making it the first large aircraft in the world to use more than 50 percent composite materials. ”
