Chapter 556: The Amazing Profits of Arms
"Impossible, right?" Li Zirui doubted, "The J-10 is also a fourth-generation fighter, and the White Crane is also a fourth-generation fighter, how can there be such a big gap?" ”
Not only Li Zirui doubts, but others also suspect that after all, there is no generational gap between the two fighters, and it stands to reason that the combat effectiveness will not be so disparity. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Song Minglun was not angry, and explained calmly: "This is a simulation that we do through artificial intelligence, and the probability of error is almost zero. ”
Lu Yang said: "If it is simulated, then there should be no problem." Our supercomputing center on Penglai Island can even simulate the geological movement of the earth, not to mention the aerial combat of fighter jets. ”
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads, after all, there are successful examples ahead. Didn't this year's Fuso earthquake use supercomputers to simulate early warning?
"But why is there such a big gap?" Su Yan asked the doubts in everyone's hearts.
Song Minglun smiled slightly: "The answer is very simple, it is still in artificial intelligence." Although the Hakutsuru belongs to the fourth generation fighter, in terms of electronic systems, it is no worse than the fifth-generation fighter. The White Crane's radar, early warning, communications, navigation, etc. are all assisted by the Sky Eye system, which is not available in other fourth-generation fighters. The superior electronic system gives the Hakutsuru faster response and more efficient strike capability......"
Lu Yang somewhat understood that Song Minglun must have used the power of artificial intelligence. When there is enough information, AI can react far faster and more accurately than humans, which is very important for air combat.
In air combat, a difference of one second can make the difference between life and death!
"In terms of power and layout, the White Crane is also superior to other fourth-generation fighters, such as F16, J-10, etc. In terms of speed, the Hakutsuru fighter is the top, and even if it is more maneuverable, it has not been surpassed in the fourth generation aircraft. In battle, Hakutsuru can easily lock on to 8-12 targets and can perform quick strikes! Song Minglun said again.
Lu Yang looked at this special fighter and couldn't help but say: "Old Song, are you engaged in a fourth-generation aircraft or a fifth-generation aircraft?" ”
"According to the division criteria, the Hakutsuru undoubtedly belongs to the fourth generation aircraft, but its excellent electronic system allows it to surpass other fourth-generation aircraft, if you want to divide it, it is not impossible to treat it as a fourth-generation and a half-generation fighter." Song Minglun said.
Lu Yang boarded the plane and looked at it, then jumped down: "Old Song, according to what you said, the speed and electronic system of the White Crane have reached the standard of the fifth-generation aircraft, and the maneuverability and stealth ability are slightly lacking, so it is divided into the fourth-generation aircraft, right?" ”
Song Minglun nodded.
"The white crane is to be sold globally, if it is too advanced, it is not good, so let's divide the white crane into two grades, the high-end we provide electronic system services, and the low-end part is removed, and the F16 is about the same." Lu Yang said.
"Product differentiation, I see, boss." Song Minglun said.
"By the way, how much does the white crane cost and sells for?" Lu Yang asked again.
"A complete White Crane, the cost is 35 million, and the external sales price is still being studied, but with reference to the J-10 and F16 high-end versions, it should not be less than 260 million yuan." Song Minglun had a smile on his face.
"Close to 700% profit!" Su Yan couldn't help but say.
"Sure enough, it's still arms to make money, and one plane will earn more than 200 million!" Yu Hao said.
Although Lu Yang did not speak, he was also surprised by the profits of the White Crane fighter in his heart. Don't look at this plane, it's not big, but the profit is much higher than that of the Phoenix airliner.
"Not all arms trade is so profitable." Song Minglun explained, "Our aircraft production line on Penglai Island is the most advanced in the world, because of the use of industrial robots and artificial intelligence, the cost is greatly reduced, and the production speed is much higher. In other companies, the profits are not as high as ours. ”
"How much is that White Crane fighter production line?" Yu Hao asked.
"Less than 5 billion yuan." Song Minglun said calmly.
Li Zirui said: "Doesn't this mean that if you sell 25 white cranes, you can earn back the cost of the production line?" However, an investment of 5 billion yuan in a production line is expensive enough. ”
Song Minglun said: "There are advantages to expensive, our production line is intelligent, and it can complete 95% of the fighter production tasks, and only 5% need to be coordinated by technical personnel." So, the production speed of this production line is very fast, and in three days it is able to produce two Hakutsuru fighters! ”
Everyone was shocked again, at this rate, the annual output of Hakutsuru fighters will be as high as more than 200 aircraft, and this is just a production line.
"Now that everything is in place, it depends on the sales of the White Crane fighter." Lu Yang clapped his hands and said, he was quite satisfied with Song Minglun's organization of the production of military aircraft in such a short period of time. However, whether Penglai Aerospace Company can create more brilliance in the arms trade depends on the sales of White Crane fighters.
Song Minglun said confidently: "Boss, about the sales of the White Crane fighter, we have made a plan, next month, the Huaxia General Assembly Department will send someone to inspect, in addition, the Pakistani Railway military has also shown interest in the White Crane, they are looking for a fighter to replace the F16, and our White Crane fighter is only stronger than the top F16, and the price is much cheaper." ”
Song Minglun has worked at Boeing for a long time and is very aware of the sales process of civil and military aircraft.
In addition, Song Minglun took the White Crane fighter and the Kunpeng 909 large passenger aircraft and the Phoenix H2 medium passenger aircraft to participate in several famous international aviation exhibitions, including the Paris Air Show, the Moscow Air Show, and the Zhuhai Air Show, and gained great fame.
The Spring Festival is coming, Penglai Island is full of festive atmosphere, Lu Yang is busy and shopping in the mall with his wife and children.
Xingxing has a winter vacation, and he is almost 7 years old, he is already 1.3 meters tall, and he is obviously developing very well. After a semester of running-in, the personality of the stars has changed a lot. In the past, he liked to do research by himself, but now he has become the child king of Xianjing Garden. In this regard, Lu Yang is very pleased, at the same age, his son is much better than himself.
Lingling is almost 3 years old, she inherited Zhu Xiaotong's appearance, a little princess who is loved by everyone. Unlike her precocious brother, Lingling is the pistachio of the whole family, and let Lu Yang and Zhu Xiaotong truly experience the troubles and joys of raising children.
Ms. Zhu, who resumed her job after Lingling was two years old, is the largest shareholder of Tianxin Pictures and is now presiding over the Penglai Happy Valley project. At home, she is a virtuous wife, a gentle mother, and outside, she is a strong woman. Most of the time, Lu Yang himself has to admit that if Zhu Xiaotong had his chance, he would definitely do better.
At this time, Zhu Xiaotong was buying clothes for her two children.
"Lingling, do you like this dress?"
"Lingling, try this ...... again"
"These two work well together, so let's try another one."
Lu Yang and Xingxing watched the mother and daughter try on clothes frantically, and they were all helpless. For a family like Lu Yang, the clothes are all custom-made, and they are the kind of clothes with high technology content. However, this does not mean that they will not buy other clothes, especially at this time, Zhu Xiaotong and Lingling are enjoying the fun of shopping.
"Dad, does this dress look good?"
"Brother, do you think I'm pretty in this dress?"
Lingling kept changing clothes, and then asked Lu Yang and Xingxing's opinions.
At home, Lu Yang and Xingxing have similar personalities, like to do research, and are not interested in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Lu Yang is dressed in a Mao suit in public, and under his influence, so are the stars. Usually at home, Lu Yang and Xingxing's clothes are very casual, how comfortable and how to wear them.
In terms of interest in life, their father and son are several grades worse than Zhu Xiaotong's mother and daughter. Zhu Xiaotong was originally a person who attaches great importance to the quality of life, and he doesn't like to compromise on anything, and this kind of personality complements Lu Yang very well. Lingling is similar to her mother, she is not yet 3 years old, she already knows how to be aesthetic, and in the choice and matching of clothing, she completely beats her father and brother.
"Lingling wears this best-looking ......" Although Lu Yang doesn't like to pick clothes, he is still very patient in accompanying his wife and children, in contrast, Xingxing's attitude is much colder. But Lu Yang didn't blame him, he was still young.
After buying clothes, the family went to the movies together. Lu Yang's villa also has a small cinema, and with his status, he can also see the movies that have just been released. However, there is still a big gap between watching it at home and watching it in the cinema.
"This movie theater is very well decorated." Lu Yang bought tickets online, and ten minutes before the movie started, they found a sofa to sit down.
"Of course, 2,000 seats, with an investment of 50 million, is equivalent to 25,000 seats per seat, which is much higher than the average investment in the industry, can it not be luxurious?" Zhu Xiaotong said.
Lu Yang looked at his wife: "Listen to what you mean, this movie theater is invested by Tianxin Pictures?" ”
Zhu Xiaotong glanced at him: "Do you still need to ask?" There are 25 cinemas on Penglai Island, all of which are invested by Tianxin Pictures. ”
Lu Yang really doesn't know about this, he usually only focuses on big things, such as movie theater lines, which are all done by his subordinates.
"With so much investment, will it pay for itself?" Lu Yang couldn't help asking.
"You underestimate the film market on Penglai Island!" Zhu Xiaotong said with a smile, "According to our statistics, the annual movie box office of Penglai Island in 2019 exceeded 1.3 billion yuan, which is equivalent to one-half of Shencheng, and this is still when our population is only 2 million." ”
Lu Yang looked around: "I didn't expect so many people to watch movies on Penglai Island." However, it is also true that everyone's income is higher and their material life is abundant, and the demand for cultural consumption will also increase. (To be continued.) )
