"Old Wu, you work in the Air Force Equipment Department, and you are not in the air traffic control area, so I don't know if it is understandable, on the day of the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Hongfei and their company's Beijun 100 aircraft have already conducted the first ground taxi test." She Jizhong gave a thumbs up as he spoke, and his eyes were full of praise.

"And such a thing?" Wu Zhenguo's eyes widened, and he shouted at Lin Hongfei with his eyes, "Brother Hongfei, this is your fault, why don't you tell me about this kind of big thing?" Hurry up, tell me what's going on with your plane? ”

Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly in his heart, I wanted to tell you in advance, but let's call me brother and brother was just a minute ago, did you Wu Zhenguo treat me Lin Hongfei as a character before?

"There is really nothing to say, we bought all the technical materials and production licenses of the TU-134B of the Tupolev Design Bureau, and then asked the Tupolev Design Bureau, Pratt. Whitney & Rockwell. Collins experts helped us to reduce weight, improve and modernize the aircraft, replacing it with more aerodynamically efficient supercritical wings and winglets, Pratt. Whitney's JT8D-200 engine, Rockwell. Collins' full color cathode ray tube cockpit system and new data bus ......"

Wu Zhenguo is a knowledgeable person, hearing Lin Hongfei say this, without waiting for Lin Hongfei to finish speaking, he immediately exclaimed, "That's basically equivalent to building a new plane!" What do you think? How many people can sit on the new plane? ”

"Almost," Lin Hongfei nodded, saying that the Beijun 100 is a brand-new aircraft, in fact, it is not wrong, "The all-economy class layout can seat 88 people, and the second-class cabin layout can accommodate 82 people." ”

The seat pitch of the TU-134B was previously arranged according to Lao Maozi's physique. Lao Maozi is tall, relatively speaking, the distance between the front and rear seats of the plane is slightly larger, but the physique of the Chinese people is relatively smaller, Lin Hongfei made some adjustments to the seat spacing, TU-134B, which could have sat 80 people, according to the seat spacing on the Boeing 737 aircraft sold to us by Airbus, was arranged out of two more rows of seats, and the passenger capacity of 88 people can be reached in the case of pure economy class layout, if the first three rows of seats are converted into business class, a total of 6 luxury business seats can be arranged in the next two rows. It is also possible to reach a passenger capacity of 82 people.

"82 people? It's amazing," Wu Zhenguo nodded again and again, "Now the occupancy rate of civil aircraft is about 5.5 to 6.5 percent, right?" If it were your plane, wouldn't it just be able to operate at full capacity? The TU-134 family of aircraft has sold so many units, and the original design is still very reliable. Although the JT8D-200 engine is a bit backward, it is okay. If there is support from national policies...... This one, of course, is for sure...... Aren't your planes going to be a big sale? ”

The deputy director of the Air Force Armament Department is indeed the deputy director of the Air Force Armament Department. Based on Lin Hongfei's words, he immediately deduced the prospect of Lin Hongfei's company's aircraft.

"Old Wu, you're lagging behind, aren't you?" Speaking of the level of well-informed information, Wu Zhenguo is really a little worse than She Jizhong, She Jizhong immediately smiled, "Our civil aviation system has placed more than 30 orders for Mr. Lin and them. In my opinion, as long as the quality of this aircraft can be said to be reasonable, it will be no problem to sell about 200 aircraft. ”

For domestic aircraft, 200 is really not a small number. Among the transport aircraft produced by the Republic, only the number of Y-5 has exceeded 200 so far, and no other aircraft has exceeded this number, and if the number of production of the North County 100 can exceed 200, it can really be called a milestone in the development of the Republic's aviation industry.

"There are more than 30 intended orders?" Wu Zhenguo was really stunned for a moment, he knew the relationship between Lin Hongfei and the old Wang family, the old Wang family and the civil aviation system, and after being stunned, he immediately congratulated Lin Hongfei again and again, "Brother Hongfei, congratulations, it seems that your Beijun 100 surpasses MD-90 just around the corner." ”

“MD—90？ The one from the Eastern Aircraft Factory? Lin Hongfei shook his head noncommittally and smiled.

"Huh?" The mockery in Lin Hongfei's eyes did not hide from Wu Zhenguo and She Jizhong, the two glanced at each other, and couldn't help asking, "What?" Brother Hongfei, are you not optimistic about MD-90? ”

"Of course, the MD-90 is a good aircraft, but I personally think that the development of this aircraft in our country seems to be a bit weak?" Lin Hongfei blinked, "What's worse is that there is now a voice in the United States asking Boeing to buy McDonnell Douglas, if this thing becomes true, the fate of the Eastern Aircraft Factory ...... It's a little worrying. ”

"Huh...... Mr. Lin, are you kidding? Wheat. Dao: For such a big company, even if Boeing acquires it, it will cost at least tens of billions of dollars, can they Boeing come up with such a large amount of money? She Jizhong laughed dryly.

"Yes, yes, that's a lot of money, no matter how rich they are in Boeing, they can't come up with such a large sum of money, right?" Wu Zhenguo also added dryly.

Wheat. Everyone has naturally heard about the possibility of being acquired by Boeing, but on this issue, many people in China have adopted an ostrich attitude: first put their heads in the sand.

"That's right," Lin Hongfei nodded in agreement at first, but then changed his words, "But if it's in the form of share swaps to cooperate, that's another matter." ”

Wu Zhenguo and She Jizhong, who were still smiling dryly just now, suddenly turned white!

Lin Hongfei's heart moved: No, even if the Dongfang Aircraft Factory and Mai. If the cooperation of the company is not successful, what does it have to do with your Ministry of Defense and the Air Force Equipment Department? What does it have to do with the two of you? You two, are you so nervous? Could it be that there is anything else in this that I don't know about the inside story of Lu Dao?

"Two brothers, don't blame my brother for being too talkative, I'm actually very optimistic about the Eastern Aircraft Factory." After pondering for a while, Lin Hongfei slowly spoke.

"Huh? Brother, what do you mean by that? She Jizhong had a puzzled look on his face, and lowered his voice and said, "Dongfang Aircraft Factory and Mai. The cooperation of the Dao company, which is a great effort when he was the leader in Dongfang City today, is equivalent to the face of that person today, can they look at this matter yellow? ”

As soon as She Jizhong's words fell, Wu Zhenguo nodded again and again.

This is also the opinion of the vast majority of people about the Vostochny at this time: the Vostochny Aircraft Factory embodies the efforts of two generations, and they can look at the Vostok Aircraft Factory because of McDonald. Douglas & Co.'s problems are yellow? This can't be! Even if it's for the sake of your own face, this project has to be maintained...... If the leaders above want to maintain, we little minions naturally have the responsibility and obligation to "hide for the venerable and hide for the sage".

"That's right," Lin Hongfei nodded with a smile, seemingly agreeing with this statement, but the next moment, just when Wu Zhenguo and She Jizhong made up their minds to see his jokes, he suddenly asked, "But what if the Americans have to make some people ugly?" ”

In an instant, the air seemed to drop by dozens of degrees in an instant, and the frozen people shivered.

After two or three minutes, She Jizhong smiled and spoke, "Hehe...... Kobayashi thinks too much......"

"Yes, yes, Xiao Lin thinks too much......" Wu Zhenguo echoed with a pale face, nodding again and again.

They were really frightened by Lin Hongfei's bold conjecture: You have the audacity to think that the Americans are ready to slap Jinhe Taizong with all their strength? How bold do you have to be to think like that?

Although I subconsciously thought that this possibility was not impossible, but this idea just appeared a little bit, and they pressed it down: this kind of thing can't be thought about, if you don't do it well, it will kill people.

"Hehe, maybe I'm thinking too much, right?" Lin Hongfei nodded with a smile, and didn't refute it, just say it, everyone can still stuff their heads into the sand and fill the ostriches, but now, they can't help but think about the entanglements here.

Wu Zhenguo and She Jizhong did regret that they came to see Lin Hongfei today, and kept scolding in their hearts, "This kid is simply stupid and bold, he dares to say anything, and he doesn't want to think about whether this kind of thing can be said casually?" It's just brainless...... Wrong!

At this moment, the two of them suddenly realized a very serious problem that they had just ignored: Did these words really mean by Lin Hongfei himself?

As soon as this thought came out, the sweat on the foreheads of the two of them suddenly trickled down.

That's right, if these words are just what he Lin Hongfei meant, of course this guy is stupid and bold to the extreme, but what if he is just a messenger? What does this mean?

If you think about it carefully, he, Lin Hongfei, is now also a national enterprise cadre and a local government leading cadre at the department level, how can he not even have this basic consciousness? In this way...... Wu Zhenguo and She Jizhong glanced at each other, and they both saw an indescribable horror in each other's eyes: Could it be that this is a deliberate rumor from above?

If so, then what does the above mean?

Continuing to think along this line of thought, the matter immediately becomes clear: if he and Taizong are now sure that the Americans are going to slap them through this incident, then the only way to avoid being slapped is to disassociate this matter from themselves...... They couldn't think of anything other than that.

As soon as they thought of this, the two of them suddenly couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately sent Lin Hongfei away...... There are some things that must be clarified in advance, and this is a major matter related to political positions! (To be continued......)
