Chen Yao looked back at Yang Wanli and them, blinked with big eyes, and whispered curiously to Lin Qiangsheng, "What are they doing here?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled awkwardly and said, "They have their own business, follow us all the way." ”

Chen Yao looked at Lin Qiangsheng suspiciously, snorted lightly and said, "If you say that you will accompany others, talking doesn't count!" ”

picked up a bottle of Coke, opened the cap and handed it to Chen Yao, she pouted and turned her face, sulking and ignoring Lin Qiangsheng.

"This time, we first went to visit a large aircraft factory in the United States, and then went to Hawaii on the 15th, and at that time we just avoided the most scorching sunshine in September, and the peak tourist season was also avoided, so there were fewer people at that time, and we could enjoy the world of two people with peace of mind!" Lin Qiangsheng whispered in Chen Yao's ear.

Chen Yao listened to Lin Qiangsheng's words, rolled her eyes, and felt that this arrangement was also very good, she was most afraid of too many people, and she was also afraid of tanning. But she was still a little angry, and it was not easy to think about Lin Qiangsheng, so Chen Yao took the initiative to give in.

The girl turned her head and hugged Lin Qiangsheng, and said in his ear: "Okay, I listen to you, but you have to promise to accompany me wholeheartedly when the time comes!" ”

Saying that, she leaned on Lin Qiangsheng's shoulder and said softly: "It's a honeymoon once in a lifetime!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng looked at Chen Yao's falling hair and smooth forehead, kissed her and said, "Well, when the time comes, I will only accompany you to walk on the beach and enjoy the beautiful ocean of blue sky and white clouds!" ”

"Hee-hee" Chen Yao smiled, leaned on Lin Qiangsheng's shoulder and closed his eyes stupidly.

The Boeing 747 flew to the SH Sea first, went through the exit procedures, and took off again at 5 p.m. to cross the Pacific Ocean and fly directly to San Francisco. The voyage from the sea of SH to San Francisco was 10,550 kilometers and only 10 hours and 20 minutes in the air. The Boeing 747 does not cruise as fast, and it is said that it is due to the high-altitude winds that fly from west to east. Wind speeds of more than 100 km/h.

There were not many passengers on the plane, according to Lin Qiangsheng's old experience, he asked Yang Wanli and others to leave their original seats and go to the back cabin to grab a whole row of empty seats and hurry up to sleep, in order to prepare for reducing the sense of jet lag, Chen Yao also fell asleep on Lin Qiangsheng's body.

At half past eleven, everyone was woken up by a huge bump. It's dawn. Everyone is sleepless. The friends who have never been abroad are excited, chatting about what surprises will be on this trip.

At noon, Lin Qiangsheng and his entourage arrived at San Francisco International Airport, and after passing through the customs, they changed to a plane operated by Western Airlines, and then flew through Salt Lake City to New York's JFK Airport. At this time, there was no SH direct flight to New York, so I had to transfer. The Western Airlines flight was a domestic flight in the United States, using a Boeing 727 aircraft.

Salt Lake City may be a real salt producer. On the plane, I saw a large circle of white flowers around the lake, and a considerable area was full of loess.

On the way from San Francisco to Salt Lake, fly through the lofty mountains, which are a bit like the taste of the bald mountains and barren mountains in the northwest of China. Unlike China, it has many highways passing through, and there are also occasional round green spaces, which are agricultural areas for automatic sprinkler irrigation. The plane continued to fly eastward. The green surface gradually increased, and the friends were also excited to completely forget Lin Qiangsheng and Yang Wanli's instructions to take a break.

Lin Qiangsheng and Yang Wanli looked at each other and smiled. Most of these people are young people in their 30s (delayed, late for school), which is the age of curiosity!

At Kennedy International Airport, Mr. Wang Chengdong from Grumman and the company's reception staff came to pick them up and sent Lin Qiangsheng and others to the hotel they had found. It was the first half of the night in New York time, but the car was looking all the way down the highway. It's hard to imagine how busy it is the 80s, and the lights have converged into a river of light!

Lin Qiangsheng and the others stayed in the hotel, took a shower and lay down, it was already two o'clock in the local midnight. Fall time, New York and North. The time difference in Kyoto is 13 hours.

Although Lin Qiangsheng was not very satisfied with this accommodation. But Grumman arranged it, and he didn't say anything, presumably Wang Chengdong paid out of his own pocket for the sake of the face that everyone is Chinese.

New York in September is also the season of high and cool autumn, the lowest temperature is minus 15 degrees, colder than the capital, fortunately everyone prepared thick clothes, the temperature difference in the morning and night is still quite large.

After sleeping for a few hours and waking up in the morning, my friends who came to the United States for the first time were a little excited, and many of them took their first photos in the United States with the morning sun as the background.

The hotel where Lin Qiangsheng and others stayed and the headquarters of Grumman were generally in New York, but they were actually Long Island. Long Island City, which is part of the state of New York, is no longer under the jurisdiction of New York City, but is just close to the Kuntu district of New York City. In the schedule, everyone should rest in the morning to solve the time difference, and only go to Grumman in the afternoon.

Before coming to the United States, Yang Wanli had already arranged internal work and prepared materials in the factory. This time, they came not only for the purpose of cooperation, but also for the purpose of stealing teachers, which is a matter of course, and they are sorry for themselves if they don't want to learn something in the world's first-class military fighter factory.

But there are many unknowns in the negotiation process, such as what is Grumman's cooperative attitude? Are they willing to provide China with advanced fighter jets and production lines, Yang Wanli and others still hope to get manufacturing technology, many people have not changed their thinking and everything is considered for the country.

Everything is unknown, even in the domestic aviation field, they are also a new Ding, and now this new Ding has just been established and wants to cooperate with a world-class weapons manufacturer, it is indeed very big, but, this team is also Yang Wanli is really experienced during the period of construction, this chief engineer is a little stupid and bold, Lin Qiangsheng is also happy to be so, the development of Dongxing Aviation Industry Company does not need the courage of Don Quixote-like charge!

The manufacturing and production experience of the Americans is definitely different from that of the domestic one, and it is better if they have not experienced the domestic production environment, and it is easier to twist the corner with less interference, and it is also Lin Qiangsheng's plan to start learning the American route from the beginning. This was much easier and did not hinder the transition from the Soviet to the American route in the field of domestic aviation.

Because there was no bottom, Yang Wanli found Lin Qiangsheng again to mobilize the technicians. Lin Qiangsheng asked everyone to communicate with each other, and the ten people are all new to the United States and may intern at the Grumman factory in the future.

After the excitement, everyone was a little worried, and several older ones expressed worries about the degree of adaptation to language, ideas, methods and even living habits, and they were not very sure. Yang Wanli also showed a worried expression for the first time. If you don't understand it, you're blind!

Lin Qiangsheng gave them full trust and confidence in these aspects, he smiled and said to the members of the Eastern Airlines team: "Ladies and gentlemen, Dongxing not only has a company in China, but also has a large distribution scale in the United States, this time let's first visit Grumman's technical strength and production scale, and then talk about those specific terms after they reveal that they can really sell F14 fighter jets to us, you just need to study the technology of the Americans, and then there will be another group of people to negotiate with you, And the company will also send a translator to accompany you through a period of adaptation, but you want to grow up as soon as possible, professional translators are difficult to find! ”

Everyone laughed after hearing Lin Qiangsheng's words, and Yang Wanli also said excitedly: "Young men, cheer up, this opportunity is rare that you are all skilled researchers, can a small language barrier stump you!" ”

"Can't!" Everyone shouted, Lin Qiangsheng also laughed, he quickly stopped the shouts of the group members, and said with a smile: "Don't invite the people from the hotel, it will be bad if you drive us out!" ”

Less than noon, Ma Chenglin, deputy director of the Department of Military Aircraft of the Ministry of National Defense, and Niu Xintang of China Aviation Technology, who had previously come to the United States for inspection, rushed to the hotel and joined the members of the China Eastern Aviation Industry Company.

This time, they were assigned by the central authorities, and they were still inspecting the development level of the US aviation industry, and they were also trying to put forward plans to introduce fighter planes and technologies to various US military enterprises, but only Grumman was more active in selling the F14, but it did not come with technology, while other arms giants such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing were not interested in selling advanced fighters to China.

The two were also surprised to receive the news that China Eastern Airlines was ready to negotiate with Grumman to introduce F14 fighters, and China also wanted to have this advanced fighter, no matter what pancakes and fruits to use, but Grumman does not sell technology, and the domestic military can't afford it!

What's going on with this Dongxing Aviation Industry Company, how can it go alone, they are a little confused. (To be continued.) )
