Lin Hongfei did not wait for the central government's instructions on the cooperation between the aviation department of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and AVIC, but waited for the state's decision on the aid project to Pakistan: except for the two power delta wings, all others can be agreed, but the power delta wing can be handed over to the Pakistani side for testing.

With instructions from the highest system, Lin Hongfei immediately breathed a sigh of relief and instructed Wang Guoliang: "Tell our Pakistani railway friends, we will immediately leave for Pakistan for preliminary investigation work, and ask them to arrange relevant matters...... Well, I believe that now our Pakistani friends have blue eyes, right? ”

With the acquiescence of the state, the negotiations between the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and the Pakistani side have progressed rapidly, and the two sides have reached a "three-step" assistance plan: the first step is to build an assembly plant in Pakistan, and the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will provide a full set of parts for assembly in Pakistan in the form of CKD; In the second step, Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. assisted Pakistan to improve the relevant industrial level, so that the self-production rate of parts and components exceeded 40%; The third step, which is also the most expected by Pakistan, when Pakistan can achieve the self-production rate of parts and components exceeds 40%, Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will transfer the core technology including engine, gearbox and suspension system to Pakistan to achieve self-production of vehicles in Pakistan.

The whole process may take more than 10 years, but for Pakistan, it is already very valuable, after all, the realization of the power system and motor vehicle production has always been the greatest wish of the Pakistani government and military.

"Isn't it?" Speaking of Pakistan's railway friends, Wang Guoliang suddenly smiled, "We can sign all the cooperation agreements in front of the letter of intent, as long as the cooperation with us is successful, Pakistan will be able to asset motorcycles, light civilian trucks and military transport vehicles for various purposes and specifications." For Pakistan, this is a great significance, no less than the fact that they are able to produce weapons-grade enriched uranium on their own, and I heard that for this matter, the President of Pakistan made a special phone call to express his gratitude. ”

Give the day a call to say thank you? Lin Hongfei was a little surprised, and shook his head with a smile: It seems that the Pakistani side attaches more importance to this aid project than he imagined!

————————————————————————

The central government took Lin Hongfei's trip to Pakistan very seriously, and even sent two IL-76 transport planes to load the relevant vehicles: although these vehicles performed very well in the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the climate of Guqi Province and Pakistan. The air conditions are very different and perform well in Guqi province. When you arrive in Pakistan, it may not be necessary to have a "water and soil adaptation" situation, and it is naturally necessary to conduct a test in Pakistan, and maybe even make some adaptation improvements.

As a representative of Pakistan's trip, in order to better "win over the corrupt" boss Lin, General Mirza deliberately chose to take Lin Hongfei's private jet. Feeling the luxury of this modified TU-134B, Mirza couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart: even if he is the president of Pakistan. There is no such luxurious and extravagant special plane.

The Pakistani government is indeed a bit miserable. The president's special plane was only converted from a second-hand C-130 "Hercules" transport plane, which was designed as a medium-sized military tactical transport aircraft at the beginning of its design, and its comfort was compared with that of civil aircraft...... Well, let's not compare.

Although Mirza didn't say anything, and his face didn't change much, the look of envy in his eyes when he looked at the layout in the cabin still didn't hide it from Lin Hongfei. His heart moved, and he smiled tentatively at Mirza and asked, "Your Excellency, how is my plane?" ”

"Great plane." Mirza said without thinking, there is nothing to hide at this point, Mirza is not without a good plane, but such a luxurious private jet, he is the first time to take it, in shock at the same time, he did not hesitate to praise the words, "very luxurious, very comfortable, in terms of comfort and luxury, not inferior to the luxury of the presidential plane." ”

Speaking of this, a hint of envy flashed in Mirza's eyes: if only Pakistan also had such a plane.

Noticing the look of envy in Mirza's eyes, a thing that had almost been completely forgotten by Lin Hongfei suddenly appeared in Lin Hongfei's mind: the mysterious explosion of Pakistani President Haq's C-130 plane in August 1988!

On the morning of 17 August 1988, President Haq took a C-130 plane from Islamabad airport to Bahawalpur in eastern Pakistan, near India, to inspect the troops stationed there and to observe a military exercise.

Among those accompanying them were 10 general-level officers, including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Pakistani armed services, and a number of senior government officials, and even the US ambassador to Pakistan and the US defense representative to Pakistan were also on the plane.

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was in an uproar, and everyone smelled a strong smell of conspiracy in this matter, which was also proved by the investigation report released a few months later.

The investigation report pointed out that the climatic conditions at the accident site were good, the crew was in normal condition, and the C-130 plane was in good mechanical condition before takeoff; After takeoff, there was no firing or fighting on board, and all the crew were killed in the fire that ignited after the plane touched the ground; From the wreckage of the aircraft, no signs of a surface-to-air missile or air-to-air missile attack were found.

According to the report, the possibility of an explosion of low intensity in the engine room cannot be ruled out due to the discovery of extraordinary amounts of phosphorus, antimony and sulfur at the rear door of the cargo compartment, as well as traces of a new type of medium-high explosives; Due to the unusual amounts of phosphorus and potassium found in the wreckage, the excess potassium in one mango pit remaining, and the unwanted antimony and chlorine in one mango peel, it is possible that the saboteurs used poison gas explosive devices, which were likely mixed in the mango baskets loaded onto the aircraft or packaged beverages, and then detonated by automatic or remote control means, causing the crew to be unwittingly poisoned within a few minutes, and eventually causing the plane to lose control and cause an accident.

The 350-page report culminated in the conclusion that it was a typical high-tech, well-planned assassination.

All the evidence points to the CIA, and the elaborate assassination method with high-tech tricks is the CIA's consistent "signature" method.

Although the U.S. government strenuously denied this, everyone believed that it was the U.S. government that warned the disobedient Pakistani government not to get too close to the republican government, but unexpectedly, the U.S. government was self-defeating in this matter, and on the contrary, it pushed Pakistan more and more to the side of the republic.

"Maybe General Mirza doesn't know very well, our company has already obtained all the technical patents for this aircraft, well, that is, the TU-134B, and now our company is carrying out major upgrades and improvements on the basis of the TU-134B, and it is estimated that the first prototype will be produced in two more years." Lin Hongfei said to Mirza in a reserved and slightly show-off tone.

"What?" Sure enough, as soon as Lin Hongfei said this, he immediately stopped Mirza, he never knew that Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. had the ability to produce this kind of aircraft immediately, and after two spurses, he said with a face full of disbelief, "This ...... The maximum take-off weight of this aircraft is 47 tons, right? Can you produce it yourself? ”

Being able to produce such a 50-ton aircraft represents the overall industrial level of a country, which is really shocking for a country like Pakistan that can't even produce a power delta wing...... Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is just a joint-stock enterprise.

Without waiting for Lin Hongfei to speak, Wang Guoliang smiled and said, "The TU-134B is too backward, what we Lin always want is actually just the basic design of this aircraft. Whitney & Honeywell. Collins has modernized and upgraded the aircraft, not only using more advanced materials and technology to optimize and upgrade the aircraft fuselage structure, but also using the most advanced avionics systems and engines in the world, although the overall shape of the aircraft has not changed much, but the weight has been reduced by nearly 2 tons, and the economy and reliability are much better than the TU-134B, and we have now received a lot of intentional orders. ”

"Isn't it?" Mirza's mouth was wide open, his face full of disbelief.

Old aircraft are rejuvenated by upgrading engines and electronic systems, this is not a new thing, the Americans do just that, whether it is a civil aircraft or a military aircraft, the Americans are the best at this hand, but he did not expect that the Chinese actually played this hand, and it was not a state-owned enterprise that played this hand, but a joint-stock enterprise.

"It just so happens that I have a plane in the process of being converted, replaced by Pratt. Whitney's JT8D-200 engine and Honeywell. Collins' latest avionics systems, data buses, comfort and economy. The maintainability is much better than mine," Lin Hongfei said, and the topic changed, "China and Pakistan are friendly neighbors, if your government does not mind, I am willing to donate an aircraft to your government to show our company's respect for the friendship between the two countries." ”

Isn't it, sending a plane?

Hearing Lin Hongfei say this, Mirza was completely dumbfounded: How can such a plane cost one or two million dollars, and you just sent it? This...... Can it be monetized? (To be continued......)
