Chapter 420: Director Yang's "Baron John Yang" aircraft carrier

It was a successful business fair!

Everyone in the world knows the Tao, but anyone who is with the Son of God, the father of the nano era, Sir John Young, is in business and makes a fortune.

All the investments and annual profit growth rates of Tiangong International Group in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Africa, Europe, Indochina Peninsula and other regions have made all the consortia and banking groups greedy, and they have chased behind waving checks and begging for loans from Tiangong International Group.

Regarding the grand blueprint for the large-scale development of China's western region mentioned by Sir Yang, Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji, Guo Bingxiang, and Zhuang Shiping were all moved.

In particular, Sir Yeung described the construction of a two-lane two-way railway in Myanmar to connect directly to the port of Sittwe. All industrial products in the western region will be transported to Africa and Europe through the Indian Ocean through a railway, which will save much time and transportation costs compared with going to sea from Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong.

As for the turbulent situation in northern Myanmar mentioned by Li Jiacheng and others, Sir Yang also patted his chest and gave everyone a package ticket. It was made clear that the Rock Mercenaries had accepted the commission of an old Tusi surnamed Yang in Chin State in Northern Myanmar to revive the glory of the Yang family in Myanmar.

Hearing what Sir Yang said, Li Jiacheng, Guo Bingxiang, Zhuang Shiping and others couldn't help but secretly guess in their hearts that this Sir Yang in front of them would not have anything to do with the old Tusi surnamed Yang in Myanmar!

Sir Yang wants to have skills, funds, power, and power, and there is also the world's largest international mercenary escort, following in the footsteps of Sir Yang, you can't go wrong!

In this negotiation, Yang Weiping also reached an agreement with Zhuang Shiping, chairman of Nanyang Commercial Bank, and Sir Yang invested one billion US dollars at a time to officially become the largest controlling shareholder of Nanyang Commercial Bank. Meantime. Shangyang Commercial Bank contributed US$1 billion, and Sir Yang personally contributed US$2 billion to form the Western Development Bank. Headquartered in Hong Kong, Zhuang Shiping is the CEO of Western Development Bank.

Such a cross-share swap made Zhuang Shiping deeply feel the sincerity of Sir Yang Da's pursuit of win-win cooperation. Naturally, Nanyang Commercial Bank. It has formed a strategic partnership with the soon-to-be-established Western Development Bank.

Yang Weiping believes that with his financial support. Coupled with more than 30 years of banking experience and connections, Nanyang Commercial Bank and Western Development Bank will surely grow into an international banking consortium with global business coverage in the future.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Yang Weiping, under the escort of Ren Changle's team, quietly left the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion and drove to the Tamar Naval Base.

Tamar is located in Admiralty, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong, and is home to one of the Royal Navy's major naval bases and dockyards in Hong Kong.

The name of the Tamar comes from a warship of the same name of the British Royal Navy, the Tamar, which was the capital ship of the Hong Kong Navy from 1897 to 1941. British Navy dockyard parked in Hong Kong. In the Battle of Hong Kong in 1941, the Tamar was bombed and sunk by the Hong Kong government to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Japanese army.

The British Naval Yard was originally located in Admiralty, but after the Second World War, reclamation works were carried out in Admiralty and the Naval Dockyard was moved to a more northerly location. In order to commemorate the Tamar, a warship that defended Hong Kong, the British government named the naval base Tamar.

At night, Victoria Bay is brightly lit, interweaving the magnificent night view unique to the "Pearl of the Orient".

Before entering the barracks of the Tamar Naval Base, Yang Weiping saw from a distance the night sailing lights on the big guy moored in the military port through the car window.

As the deep-water bay that is the first in Asia and the third in the world, the natural water depth and channel are enough to allow the "Baron John Young" aircraft carrier, with a full load displacement of 53,435 tons, to enter and exit and dock easily.

The convoy drove into the barracks, and when he saw the Type 07 digital camouflage training uniforms worn by the sentries and some other British officers and soldiers, Yang Weiping had the illusion of entering the barracks of the Hong Kong Garrison of the previous PLA for no reason.

Since the U.S. Marine Corps adopted Type 07 digital camouflage as a training uniform, the research of digital camouflage has begun to receive the attention of major military powers in the world.

The British Royal Navy, which has always maintained a strategic alliance with the U.S. military, directly introduced the U.S. Marine Corps' Type 07 digital camouflage before its own digital camouflage was developed.

The British copied the Americans' things, and the whole world felt that it was normal. However, the Soviet army's copying of the Type 81 multi-terrain camouflage of the Chinese People's Liberation Army has become a joke often used by Western countries to spray the Soviet government.

It is simply too embarrassing to say that the military power that claims to be the number one military power in the world is actually shamelessly copying the military skills of the former little brother of the Communist Party and the Communist Party of China.

However, the topography of Afghanistan is too suitable for Type 81 multi-terrain camouflage (CP camouflage). Despite the ridicule and ridicule of the Soviet troops by the West, they were reluctant to replace them. As a result, the Soviet official simply claimed that the Soviet Union did not have a patent law, and we could copy whatever we wanted.

The word cottage, of course, was uttered by Sir Yang.

The Type 81 multi-terrain camouflage was originally handed over to the Soviet government by Yang Weiping through Karenia, and he certainly would not openly laugh at the Soviet government in the international community, and on the other hand, he deliberately claimed in the newspaper that China had copied many Soviet products, including military techniques, and it was understandable that Big Brother was now copying Huaxia's products.

As the Western media often use Soviet copycat Chinese products as a joke, the term "shanzhai" has also become popular in the world.

Later, the Soviet government was annoyed by the Western media, and in a fierce and unambiguous manner, it published a public article in Pravda with the title "Socialist Camp, Carry the Cottage to the End!"

The article points out that socialist countries should have more copycat capitalist society's advanced products and technologies, which is the most advantageous weapon for digging into the corners of capitalism and the most effective means of attacking the Western capitalist world.

As a result, every time the heads of state of several socialist countries in Eastern Europe meet, they will always ask each other, "Do you have any good things in the cottages?" If you have good things, you must take them out, and everyone will copy them together!"

At this time, Yang Weiping's mind was also full of copycat thoughts, and he was thinking about how to completely copy the steam catapult device on the aircraft carrier "Baron John Yang", which was already his personal property.

The predecessor of the "Baron John Young" was the Eagle-class Ark Royal R09 of the British Royal Navy.

Construction of this aircraft carrier, which began on May 3, 1943 at the Campbell Ryde shipyard in England, was originally named HMS Invincible and renamed HMS Ark Royal in January 1946.

The first refit was accepted from July 1958 ~ December 1959, the second refit from October 1966 ~ February 1970, and the third refit from October 1976 ~ May 1977. It is a brand new first-class aircraft carrier due to continuous modification and improvement.

The modified "Ark Royal" has a full load displacement of 53,435 tons, a total length of 257.6 meters, a flight deck width of 50.6 meters, a draft of 10.9 meters, and a maximum speed of 31.5 knots.

After the Second World War, this aircraft carrier served as the main force of the British Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation for nearly 30 years, and during its service, it adopted new techniques such as an oblique flight deck, a steam catapult, and a stepped flight deck. Although she was eventually retired, she left an indelible mark on the history of the Royal Navy.

Standing on the deck of this aircraft carrier, which has been fully modernized, Yang Weiping's heart has never calmed down.

In the previous life, he didn't know how much brains he had spent on the catapult technique on the deck of the aircraft carrier, and he didn't see Huaxia develop the catapult device until the last moment of his life.

Steam catapult, gas catapult, electromagnetic catapult, the theory of which Yang Weiping can answer with his eyes closed. However, if you want to manufacture it and apply it to aircraft carriers, it is not only a country's industrial technology, but also a country's overall heavy industry base processing level.

In the previous life, Huaxia didn't know how much effort he had to make, and he couldn't get a complete steam catapult device, so naturally he couldn't have a chance to come out.

Now, with Huaxia's perfect heavy industry system, basic processing technology level and precision machining capabilities, no matter what high-tech products, as long as there are physical objects, Yang Weiping is very sure that they will be copied out, or even surpass the original!

On the deck, because only 4 "Gannet AEW.3" early warning aircraft from the original 849 Squadron B of the Ark Royal aircraft carrier, 6 "Sea King HAS.2" anti-submarine helicopters from the 824 Squadron, and 4 Seahawk helicopters later purchased from the United States remained, it looked a bit empty, like the illusion of a helicopter carrier.

The captain of the ship, Colonel Gerald, after learning that Baron John, the behind-the-scenes boss of the rock, had boarded the ship, and originally planned to assemble all the officers and men on the aircraft carrier to accept the review of Sir Yang, but Yang Weiping kindly stopped him.

As the captain of the former aircraft carrier Ark Royal, Colonel Gerard heard that the Labour Cabinet was going to dismantle the aircraft carrier, which he had served for 15 years, into scrap steel. It wasn't until he learned that the Rock Mercenaries were planning to buy the aircraft carrier and keep the ship of honor for the Royal Navy that Colonel Gerald regained his vitality and spared no effort to get the deal done.

Although the aircraft carrier is now renamed "Baron John Young", in Colonel Gerald's mind, she is the Ark Royal, the Ark Royal forever!

This time he came to Hong Kong to receive the new Qiang-5 B2 carrier-based aircraft made in China, and Colonel Gerard was more enthusiastic than anyone else. Because he knows that an aircraft carrier without a carrier-based attack cannot be called a real combat aircraft carrier.

The Huaxia-made NATO codename called the Tengu the Qiang-5 B2 carrier-based aircraft, and Gerald had certainly heard of the excellent performance of this multi-role carrier-based aircraft. In his opinion, the Tengu is not much worse than the Sea Harrier in all aspects, except for the lighter fuselage, and is much stronger than the previous "Ghost FG.1" fighter and "Marauder S.1" attack aircraft. Because, the Tengu is a combination of a supersonic fighter and an attack aircraft! )
