Volume 2 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 1578 The Maniac

"Not only that, but we can also make some changes to the overall shape of the aircraft. According to today's popular saying, it's just how cool it is! ”

"For example, with a single-engine configuration, we have a single vertical tail. But with the twin-engine configuration, we gave them a cooler-looking vertical twin vertical tail. The cockpit canopy of the aircraft is different from the ugly canopy used before, but uses a blister-shaped monolithic canopy similar to that used on the F-16 fighter; For the cheaper, we equip them with a simple electronic pointer cockpit instrument system, and for the mid-priced ones, we equip them with an analog and LCD integrated cockpit display system; More than 4 million of them are equipped with all-glass cockpit display systems. ”

"Of course, an aircraft with a single-engine design suddenly turned into a twin engine, the whole and some parts of the aircraft are enlarged, no less difficult than redesigning a new aircraft, not to mention upgrading the flight control system of the aircraft, the enlarged version of the J-7 fighter: the J-8 fighter is the best example, just a simple single-engine to double-engine, the early model or the nose air intake, it has been dragged for so many years, but this is not a problem for us."

Alice's was also excited. This girl didn't say much, if it was purely compared to the design, any aspect of design and improvement was really not a problem for these two girls.

"You can also follow this path to continue to go deeper, in terms of exterior painting, we can also consider, for example, ordinary aircraft models we spray them with ordinary aviation paint. But for those who are willing to pay a premium price, we can provide them with a more upscale paint to make the whole aircraft look much higher than the average model aircraft. If they're willing to pay more, we can even offer them a paint that resembles the look of high-end body metallic paint, or even create their own paint color. In a word, as long as you are willing to pay for it, you can implement all your ideas on it. Xiao Chenxi was also excited.

Even Brother Zhuzi, who is super honest and good and has never spoken, can't stand the lively atmosphere at this time, and the brother is also excited, and can't help but interject, "You may have to carry luggage when you travel on this plane, so we have to design a luggage box similar to an auxiliary fuel tank and hung under the wings to ensure that these guys have enough space to carry their luggage when traveling." ”

"Also, the nose air intake of the J-7 fighter is too ugly! In the same way, an airplane that doesn't look 'sci-fi' won't win too many customers. We had to improve the design of the aircraft, change the nose air intake to two ribs or belly air intake, and the free air intake head cone and radar section and the new fairing section were also a huge space that could be used. ”

"Anyway, we don't need to install radar for this guy, this part of the space, we can also design it into a luggage compartment, the volume of this space, I'll calculate it...... Well, the improved head alone has about 468 liters of interior space, which is equivalent to the trunk volume of many sedans. ”

"Also, the view part of this plane is not very good, this one needs to be revised." I don't know when even the iron guy came out, and this guy became excited as soon as he heard that there was something good to play, "I want to change the design to a slightly lowered nose style similar to the MiG-29 or SU-27 fighters, alas, it would be even more beautiful if the entire nose could be designed to be fully transparent......

A fully transparent nose? The most famous bombers of the World War II period, the B-29 "Super Flying Fortress" strategic bomber, and the H-6 series bombers that are still in service in the domestic air force, all use transparent noses. It seems like this idea is a little crazy. …,

When a group of people got together and quarreled, the appearance of the plane in front of everyone was constantly changing, and what made Zhang Lan a little worried in his heart was, "But in this way, how much does it cost?" ”

If the final cost of this damn guy turned out to be more than the price of a fighter without a weapon system installed, Zhang Lan felt like he was about to cry to death.

When the hour-long quarrel finally ended, the final product was finalized.

"Damn!" Looking at the final fighter jet, Zhang Lan's eyes widened like copper bells, and the strong ingasp made Zhang Lan's lungs seem to be equipped with a high-power aspirator, "This...... This...... This...... It's clearly a minor revision of the MiG-29! ”

To be exact, this is not a product, but two series, single and double,

The single-engine scheme seems to be relatively faithful to its own prototype, but it is still possible to see a lot of shadows of other aircraft. For example, the low-hanging nose of the MiG-29/Su-27 and the flattened nose of the Su-24 "Platypus" are parallel to the two-seat fighter-bomber; As for the double-haired one, the arrogant one. The slightly outward-tilted vertical twin hanging tails are even more involuntarily reminiscent of the shadows of the MiG-29 and Su-27/Su-34 planes that appeared on this damn plane.

Among them, the single-engine series is three engine configurations and a single vertical tail arrangement, and the double-engine series is also three engine configuration schemes and a double vertical tail arrangement, with a total of six styles. This is not the end alone, each of which is also divided into single-seater, side-by-side two-seater, tandem two-seater, 2+2 mixed mode of serial parallel four-seater type a total of 4 detailed sub-categories, that is to say, in a short period of time, these crazy people have come up with a total of 24 aircraft!

24 styles? Zhang Lan felt like she was going crazy! I thought I was crazy enough, but I didn't expect that after these guys went crazy, they were completely incomparable, and what is even more exaggerated is that even the cost of the top configuration is only 4 million US dollars, which does not exceed Zhang Lan's requirements at all, so that the cost of 400 is 1 million US dollars, even if it is sold for 5 million US dollars, there is a profit of 1 million US dollars.

But the question is, will this configuration be sold for $5 million? Are you kidding! This sturdy configuration will cost at least $20 million! As for the cost? Who knew that Khan would die for $4 million!? Anyway, no one knows that the R&D cost of this thing is infinitely close to zero.

It's weird, who made this damn thing themselves? Zhang Lan can only comfort herself in her heart at the moment.

But to whom should the first aircraft be sold? That's the urgency of the moment.

"Larry. Ellison, that madman! Except for Zhang Lan, several guys spoke in unison.

It seems that everyone is interested in the president of Oracle: Larry. Ellison, the madman, already has a deep-seated impression of being a "madman."

No one denies Larry. Ellison is a genius, but what is even more undeniable is that this guy is a complete lunatic! Some people even directly said that this guy is a super mad dog with rabies, see who bites whom!

But although countless billionaires hate Oracle President Ellison, a madman who sees who bites whom, there is one thing that makes these tycoons very envious of this madman: Ellison, a madman, has a fighter plane of his own.

Driving an active fighter jet of your own? This is much more exciting than flying those business jets and propeller planes that look like noble ladies, and what man doesn't have the slightest urge to fly with weapons in his heart? The fighter jet is undoubtedly the best aircraft that combines the two.

And to have a fighter of your own? This is probably a dream that every boy has since childhood, and this will definitely not change much with his age and wealth, but with the change of time, many people have realized that this is just a childhood dream and fairy tale that belongs to them. As an ordinary person, there is no chance to have a fighter of your own, even if it is worth trillions. …,

But Larry. The appearance of this guy Ellison breaks this stubborn law! Not only does this guy have a fighter jet of his own, but he also often flies it between his hometown of Cleveland and Lewood, where the company is located, although ...... This fighter is a subsonic jet trainer with all weapons removed, but in any case, it is a fighter.

So, Larry, who has a fighter of his own. Ellison is actually the envy of many rich people, although they only envy this girl because he has a fighter with a dismantled weapon system, or a second-hand jet trainer to be exact.

So in a way, Larry. Ellison, a madman, is to some extent the vane of the "super big toy" of fighter jets in the rich circle, if this madman announces that he has a brand-new twin-engine fighter jet, and anyone can buy this fighter jet, what kind of chemical reaction will happen, even Zhang Lan himself dare not predict.

"Good! That's Larry. Ellison! Zhang Lan nodded heavily, dealing with a madman? It's better to turn into a madman yourself first. "But...... Ellison, this guy? Maybe this guy doesn't want to have a jet supersonic fighter, but wants to have an aircraft carrier equipped with fighters! ”

――――――――――――――――

But for these super-rich people, including Ellison, who are idle all day long but don't know how to vent, a subsonic fighter that can only "crawl" at subsonic speed is obviously not what they really want.

Therefore, Ellison, a madman, tried every means to get a MiG-29, but in the end it was aborted because of the "inaction and pedantry" of the US customs...... Of course, this "inaction and pedantic" is Larry. Ellison's comment to the U.S. customs authorities was because this guy gave the MiG-29 that was supposed to belong to him to make customs clearance procedures for entering the United States. U.S. Customs is all stunned and at a loss! : Since World War II, there has never been a time in the history of the United States in which a private person owns a fighter jet that is a sworn enemy of the United States, such as the MiG-29.

Since there is no precedent, it is natural that the customs in the United States will not give Larry . Ellison, this guy made a cut.

But right here in Larry. While Ellison was still wrestling with his MiG-29 leaving him, the madman received a letter from the Alice Group.

When he saw the letter at the beginning, Ellison thought that some idle and boring guy was joking with him, and if it weren't for the name of the Alice Group, this guy might have thrown the letter in the trash: the letter said that the Alice Group was willing and able to provide him with a twin-engine fighter, and even provided him with a personal aircraft carrier! …… Of course, it's conventionally powered.

And with the letter came. There was also a memory card, the letter said, and information about the fighter was already stored on the card, and if Ellison himself was interested, he could take a look at it. The issue of aircraft carriers, if Ellison is interested, because things are too complicated, this issue needs to be discussed by Ellison in person to Alice Group.

Fighter plane? Aircraft carrier? With the letter in hand, Larry. Ellison didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, but in his heart, this guy still felt ridiculous!

That's right, it's ridiculous! This is just!

Earlier, Zhang Lan once said that Larry. This guy Ellison doesn't just want a jet supersonic fighter, he wants an aircraft carrier, an aircraft carrier formation with an aircraft carrier as the core. Yes, that's what Ellison thought in his heart, and even though he never told anyone about it, it wasn't surprising for such an established madman to have such a dream -- which would explain why this guy was obsessed with building a ship that was bigger than one of Microsoft's founders: Paul. Allen's luxury yacht is bigger in order to overwhelm Oracle's rival, even in terms of size and size. It's a pity that when it comes to size, Larry. Ellison apparently forgot to consider the oversized mooring of the yacht. …,

Well, as ridiculous as Ellison thinks it all is, thinking about what the Alice Group has done over the years, it seems more like a madman than himself, if this letter was really from the Alice Group...... Ellison admits that this is a real possibility.

If that's not convincing enough, the memory card in the envelope is clearly telling.

Could that guy have some virus in there? Looking back and forth at the memory card in his hand, Ellison muttered in his heart, but also couldn't help but be a little funny: if this is a joke or a prank, isn't it too clumsy?

Just then, the phone rang, and with a casual glance at the displayed phone number, Larry. Ellison was stunned: Jill? Alice's private secretary Jill? How could it be her? Is this true?

Jill has Larry. It's not surprising that Ellison's private phone number is at this point, again. Larry. It's no surprise that Ellison has Jill's phone number in his hand. The world's top rich circle is only so big, there are only so many people, and the party they participate in is gone, whether they are opponents, competitors, or mortal enemies, but it is normal to have each other's private contact numbers, even if this phone number will not be dialed once in their lives.

"Miss Jill?" Ellison asked tentatively, his heart was rather uncertain.

"It's me, Mr. Ellison, I wonder if you've received the letter?" Jill's melodious voice rang on the phone.

Ellison's heart pounded violently! Even, I faintly felt that my head was slightly dizzy, and a voice in my heart was shouting: "It's true!" It turned out to be true! ”

At this moment, even Ellison couldn't believe that he was crazy enough, but he didn't expect that there were even crazier people in this world than himself!

That's right, the Alice Group is definitely a crazy person who can't be more crazy.

"Yes, I got it." Taking a deep breath and trying to calm down his agitated mood, Ellison said, so far, Ellison has believed eighty percent of the content of this letter.

"Okay," Jill chuckled over the phone, "the letter is rather abrupt, so...... Mr. Ellison understands, right? Quite a few words"

"Yes, I understand," Ellison nodded, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: abrupt? If it weren't for this girl calling to confirm, it is estimated that the final ownership of this letter is a trash can, but now, Ellison suddenly found that he wanted to find a computer without any physical connection or wireless connection to see the contents of this memory card like never before.

As the boss and leader of the world's database system, Ellison will not be without this basic vigilance. Although Ellison would never believe that the Alice Group would put a virus in the memory card to steal Oracle's core secrets, Ellison will do everything that needs to be done.

"Okay, Mr. Ellison, let's take a look at it first, and if you're interested in this thing, we'll move on." Jill humbly said a few times and hung up the phone.

"What's in there?" Turning on a computer that didn't have any network connection, Ellison happily inserted the memory card into the card reader, anticipating what the computer was about to display like never before.

"How could it be...... Really...... It was really like this...... "Half an hour later, Ellison's breathing was unusually rapid, his mouth was like a dream, muttering words that no one could understand, and his expression looked a little demented, but also flushed with a kind of extreme madness.

"Very well, this madman is interested." At the same time, Zhang Lan's face was flushed with excitement! Just Larry. Ellison, the madman, was interested in this thing, and it was half the way! ……,
