Because of such a major cooperation, both sides need to give each other an explanation, especially the U.S. government, which has paid strategic strength, needs to give an explanation to its own people, the Americans' sense of crisis is very heavy, as can be seen from the countless masochistic movies, the U.S. government inexplicably sold the F-22 to the Star Group, although in exchange for the world's most advanced batteries, but in the eyes of ordinary people, ordinary people do not have such a high strategic vision.

He can't see the benefits of the world's most advanced battery, but he can see that once the F-22 is useless, all the bases in the United States will be in danger, so the US government is bound to stabilize the hearts of its own people, so at the press conference, the US government announced the names of all the materials involved in the transfer of the F knife of the Star Group.

From these announced names, everyone immediately knows that the Star Group is probably at a loss, because it is very simple, it seems that there is a lot of information given, but there is only one important engine, a stealth coating, a structural material, and other radars, data links, operating systems, etc., are not mentioned, and these things do not belong to the F-22 in the eyes of the US government.

You must know that such a high-profile press conference can be that the media all over the world have invited military experts to analyze this matter, and when the two sides announced what they have paid, whether it is European, American or domestic military experts, these military experts will analyze the Star Group for the first time! Cause? In terms of motivation, although the American F-22 engine has unique characteristics, the engine of the Star Group has obviously caught up, especially the thrust of the electric-oil hybrid engine has almost reached the same level as the engine mounted on the F-22.

Invisible coatings, although there is still a gap between China and the United States, but the gap in this regard is not large, that is, half a step away, as for the structure, you must know that the emergence of J20 in the last life has proved that the structure of this aspect of the country has also been thoroughly understood, the only more difficult is the material, the country is still a little behind in the research of new materials, but the details of the F-22 production materials given by the United States are only those new materials used in the production of F-22.

In fact, there are not many types, all in all, these things do not do much good to the Star Group to improve its combat effectiveness, but what does the United States get? The United States got the most advanced battery in the world! With these batteries, through the analysis of these military experts, the military strength of the United States will once again increase by 25 percent as a whole!

Although it is a long-term problem to replace all the batteries, with the scientific and technological reserves of the United States, as long as the technical drawings are obtained, then this new battery will immediately begin to enter the research and development of a new type.

Star Group loses! When the American media came to this conclusion, it was originally because of the F-22

The fearful public, who were worried about the sale of the technology, immediately began to rejoice, at least in their opinion, that the latest technology was in the hands of the United States. However, when the contract was signed, when Zhang Yang's plane flew to China, Bush got the news reported by his scientific researchers!

"What? What's going on, the information is fake? Bush almost jumped on the spot, the United States has paid so much for science and technology, and if the technology is fake, the United States does not mind immediately taking back all the industries of the Star Group in the United States by force. No, this kind of agreement signed by both parties, it is impossible for Star Group to cheat, and it is impossible to play fake.

"No, Mr. President, Zi Indica is not fake, we have produced the first battery, we dare to guarantee, not only is the information not false, but also even more outstanding than the Star Group in terms of performance, at least about 30% of the performance, in other words, the same volume and weight of the battery, at least 35% more than the most advanced battery on the market now! In other words, the battery, which used to last 10 days, can now last at least 50 days! A white-haired old white man in charge of the report stroked the glasses on his nose and said.

"What's going on? There is a serious question what's going on? Bush immediately frowned. Uh, because of one element, an essential element is needed to produce this battery, and that is the platinum element! But the reserves of platinum in nature ...... The world currently has the most sodium gold, which is more than 10,000 tons. The scientist's expression was a little embarrassed.

"What?!" Bush jumped up again, and his mouth grew big! Damn, isn't that? With just over 10,000 tons of platinum, how many tons of batteries can be produced? What is this enough for? "Are you sure it's indispensable?" Bush's face was ugly, because he suddenly found that it seemed that the Star Group was not a loss, and if the battery was really like this, then it would mean that the world's energy in the future, this kind of battery could not be completely replaced.

"Yes," the researcher nodded. "Robert, does the Star Group's battery have platinum in it? Did they use a fake recipe? Bush's face was ugly.

"Mr. President...... No ......,........." Robert also had a wry smile on his face, according to their investigation, the batteries currently produced by Star Group have platinum in them, but the difference is that their content is very small. But no one expected that this was a key element, and according to our information, as early as two years ago, Star Group began to secretly buy platinum, and the current price of platinum in the market has risen by a third according to two years ago! According to our speculation, at least more than 1,000 tons of platinum reserves on the market are in the hands of Star Group, plus the Chinese government's original possession, China currently controls about 2,000 tons of platinum. …，

Does it mean that one-fifth of the platinum has already reached the hands of China? How many are there in our country? Bush asked with a serious face.

"We currently have about 800 tons in our hands, and if we count the private ones, then about 1,200 tons, and the rest are basically concentrated in Europe, South America, and African countries." Robert flipped through the information in his hand and spoke.

"So little, that means this battery is completely useless?" Bush's face was gloomy and terrifying.

"No, no, no, Mr. President is completely wrong, although this battery can be produced in small quantities, it is very useful! First of all, the amount it uses in a battery is not large, according to the calculation of 100 tons of platinum element, 100 tons can probably produce about 300,000 tons of batteries, 300,000 tons of such a number of batteries, according to the current power consumption of aircraft carriers, has been able to drive three supercarriers, and the endurance time is close to 5,000 nautical miles. But the researcher next to him explained.

In addition, this kind ......of battery is used in other equipment, and the performance of these equipment is very large, such as unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, if it is propelled by all-electric power, its endurance can not only be increased several times, but also its concealment effect will be more powerful, its noise, and radar cross-section will become very! The old man looked very moved.

"Okay, I know Robert, call the Minister of Energy to come over, ask him to bring the domestic platinum reserves data, and then ask him to list a mining plan, and let the people in the scientific research department start to study whether there are elements that can replace platinum, although I don't understand these, but if I'm not mistaken, platinum is also an indispensable substitute in many high-end technologies, right?

In other words, the amount of platinum we can use is far less than we think, right? ”

In the position of president, Bush is naturally not an idiot and knows a little bit about everything.

The old man immediately explained Bush's question: "Yes, Mr. President, there are a lot of cutting-edge technologies that platinum is an essential element, so we can only use about two-thirds of the platinum element...... I have an opinion. Thinking of this, the old man said with some hesitation.

"Oh? You. "Bush also respects these veterans, after all, the future of the United States depends entirely on them." That one...... I researched Star Group's batteries before I came, and I found that the batteries used in the iPhones they currently sell, as well as the cars made by BMW, also use this kind of batteries, and they have a recycling policy when they sell them, obviously to ensure the maximum use of platinum. In fact, it is not difficult to extract platinum from the disposal of waste batteries, and the cost can be within an affordable range, especially the pollution of this new battery is not large, since the Star Group can recycle ............... Then we ....... The old man shrunk his head, and the words behind him were no.

Bush's eyes immediately lit up, yes, since the Star Group sells products, other people's products and batteries can't be sold if they are lost, right? Recycling is paying for it, but if we recycle secretly behind the scenes...... Thinking of this, Bush immediately felt good, and quickly said goodbye: "This attention is good, Robert is responsible for this matter, and now that the agreement between the Star Group and the EU has not been signed, go to the EU and other countries to collect platinum!" Don't be afraid of money! I allocated the special funds from the president first.! ”

Robert immediately nodded quickly and said, "Mr. President, don't worry, I will definitely leave this matter to the most suitable person." "What happened to the U.S. government, although Zhang Yang didn't know, but he could guess it, but Zhang Yang didn't expect Lao Mei to be so ruthless and come up with this kind of damage trick so quickly, but if Bush knew that the current battery of the Star Group had already gotten rid of platinum, I don't know if he would spit out a mouthful of blood.

Regardless of the comments from the outside world, the Star Group has reached this agreement with the US government anyway, so nothing can change this fact from outsiders. Most of the domestic media are also full of concerns about Star Group's choice, but outsiders just comment on it, and there is nothing they can do.

However, just when Zhang Yang's plane was still two or three hours away from landing at Kaishi International Airport, a piece of news made Zhang Yang a little stunned. "Are you sure it's true?" Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows, looked at Chen Xiaowei who came in, and asked.

"It's true, I just got the news that the South China Sea Fleet has already confronted the Philippine fleet." Chen Xiaowei smiled bitterly. "I'm rubbing, these grandsons, just owe a beating." Zhang Yang was a little depressed. "By the way, according to the Philippine defense minister, he is in the capital at this time, and the prime minister just now, if we don't have anything important, we can go to Beijing to discuss this issue." "We? Why? Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, after all, this is a state affair, what does it mean to let yourself get involved. It seems that it is because of the factories of several companies under the Star Group in the Philippines. And according to the news from above, the Philippines is obviously doing this because the United States has obtained the technology in our hands, and they think that we have nothing to restrict the United States, so they are honest for a while before jumping out again. Chen Xiaowei was a little helpless.

Zhang Yang was happy when he heard it: "Damn, that means that the Philippines was cheated by the United States this time, and the United States will definitely not know about such a big thing, but the United States obviously did not squeak." "I guess it's a test of the bottom line above." Although Chen Xiaowei and Li Keqing are only the chairmen of the group, the vision and vision of the two people are naturally different, so it is immediately clear why the United States is doing this. "Anyway, they have already given up on the Nansha issue, and we can't do anything to the Philippines, so it's obvious that this is using the Philippines to create a little trouble for us, disgusting us." Li Keqing also said helplessly.

"Tell the cab that we'll fly to the capital airport." Zhang Yang squinted his eyes, he was going to meet the Philippine Minister of Defense, anyway, the Star Group's investment in the Philippines is also very large, and it is impossible for them not to pay attention to their own opinions, so it is estimated that they also want to let themselves use this talk. 、

More than three hours later, Zhang Yang's motorcade drove into the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse under the leadership of the police car. Not long after resting in the room, the prime minister who got the news rushed over, and Zhang Yang was also startled when he opened the door, but he didn't expect the prime minister to come over in person.

"Prime Minister, say hello, can't I just go over?" Zhang Yang was a little flattered, although he was already a person he had talked to with Bush, but after all, his own country still felt different from other countries.

"Haha, son, now the identity is different, I didn't look at the United States, the United States received people at the level of receiving foreign heads of state, and its influence was not lower than mine." The Prime Minister laughed.

"Well, this is to respect the old and love the young, and I have to go to see you too. , Zhang Yang wisely changed the topic.

"Hehe, okay, I'm here to find help, yes, it's like this, it's just in the afternoon that the Han Standing Committee is going to meet with the Philippine Minister of Defense, let's go with me, it's about half an hour." The Prime Minister looked at his watch.

The reception level is so high? Zhang Yang was a little surprised, Han Standing Committee member is the one who once talked to Zhang Yang, and he and Zhang Yang like a famous saying at the same time, that is, the next National Yuan, if nothing else
