Li Zhan almost used up the greatest control in his life to allow himself to sit down peacefully, instead of grabbing the door and taking a taxi and going straight to Cheng Luoma. When I had dinner with my brother last night, my brother didn't say anything, and the confidentiality work was done. But he doesn't blame his brother, judging from the previous news, it is of great significance to choose this point in time for the first flight.

boarded the plane with great excitement, but that heart had already flown to Cheng Luoma's side. Cheng Luoma is really a torturous little goblin, and after thirteen years, he once again gave the Chinese people a surprise. It's only thirteen years, which is too short for a successful fourth-generation aircraft.

If the first flight of the J-10 shows that Cheng Loma has caught up with the big brother Shen Hoy, then the first flight of the fourth-generation aircraft has established the position of the leader of the domestic aviation industry in Cheng Loma in one fell swoop.

"Master, the fourth-generation aircraft has made its first flight."

"I know."

"Senior brother is a test pilot, he drove it, I saw it, it's him."

"I know that too."

"I'd love to blow up a fourth-generation aircraft."

"I can't help you."

"I ......"

"Carrier-based fighter pilots have sea compensation, and in addition to the trolley fee, there is also sea compensation."

"I understand, I must not forget my original intention......"

An A330 wide-body airliner roared and took off from a third-rate airport, taking Li Zhan on his way home. As a millionaire, Li Zhan, who was accustomed to sitting in the cockpit, gritted his teeth and bought business class and spent hours on the trolley fee.

After boarding, the enthusiasm of the flight attendant made Li Zhancheng panic, he didn't need anything, he didn't even dare to go to the toilet during the whole flight, and it was a rule to sit timidly in the seat and breathe. This is the second time to take a civil aviation flight, and the first time I have sat in economy class for a while from the training base, and I feel even more uncomfortable sitting in a more relaxed business class at this time.

Li Zhan, whose excitement had not completely subsided, began to think wildly, that in the future, it would be best to choose to take a vacation when he was engaged in long-distance flight training, and fly his own plane to Xixian Station directly, and take a taxi for fifty yuan to get home.

In fact, what he thought about the most was what he talked about on the phone with Master Liu Guojian before boarding.

What does the future hold?

Will you join the Flying Shark training team according to Master's request, or will you stay on the side of the Air Force and continue to fight for the fourth-generation aircraft? The trolley Fei Hai made up or something, just kidding. Liu Guojian and Li Zhan have the same consensus -- Li Zhan's personal development and future have long been highly integrated with the development of the army, in other words, no matter where he goes, it will not have a great impact on him personally.

The young pilots who have been awarded seven first-class merits are baby bumps everywhere, and it can even be said that in the next 30 years, Li Zhan will basically lie down and win. However, this kind of life is not what he is pursuing, and this kind of situation is not what he consciously wants. He has one and only one purpose - to dedicate his life to the cause of the People's Air Force, which he loves.

The fourth-generation aircraft has made its first flight, but it is believed that it will take a few years before it enters service. There was a gap of six years between the first flight of the J-10 and its entry into service, and there have been very big changes between the early prototype and the production model in full service. In this way, the fourth-generation aircraft will definitely have a big change from the current first-flight model when it is in mass production and service.

It is not realistic to want to drive a fourth-generation aircraft as soon as possible.

Or go to the Flying Shark Training Team first?

When the plane landed at Nangang Red International Airport, Li Zhan didn't have a clear inclination, and after seeing Ying Wanjun waiting at the arrival gate, he simply didn't want to do anything at work.

"You're here anyway."

"Uncle asked me to stay at your house tonight."

"Coming by car?"

"Hmm."

Li Zhan subconsciously ignored the important information, looked at the time, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon, thought about it, and said, "I remember that you got your driver's license." ”

"yes, I told you before I got home last month."

Li Zhan said, "Let's go, buy a car." ”

"Huh?" Ying Wanjun didn't react.

Li Zhan waved his hand arrogantly, "Buy a car, the old Li family has counted up for several generations except for the ox cart, there is no other vehicle, and it is not convenient to go to relatives or anything after the Chinese New Year, I can't drive, but you can drive, take a walk, I carry with me the China Construction Bank Dragon Card Savings Card that collects trolley fees." ”

Ying Wanjun was dragged into a taxi by Li Zhan for a long time and didn't react, and suddenly saw that Li Zhan was wearing casual clothes, the Li Ning brand sportswear he bought last year, pretending to be a forced suit, it seems that he has long been ready to pretend to be forced!

But why is it easier to buy a car than to buy groceries?

On January 11, 2011, the day of the first flight of the fourth-generation aircraft, Li Zhan was in a good mood. Buying a car is a big deal, and it is really a big thing in a family, and to a certain extent, it is more valued by people than buying a house. A house is fundamental, a car is a consumable, and people will basically go bankrupt and even buy real estate at the expense of debt, but for cars, if they don't have spare money in their hands, they will basically not consider it.

After the global economic crisis in 2008, the state introduced a 4 trillion yuan economic stimulus plan, vigorously stimulated domestic demand with infrastructure construction, and upgraded exports to domestic sales. There are two major policies that are closely related to people's interests, the first is to send household appliances to the countryside, and the second is to send cars to the countryside. Since 2009, the purchase of designated home appliances can enjoy a 13% subsidy, and the purchase of a car with an engine displacement of less than 1.6 liters can enjoy a 5% or 75% discount on the purchase tax.

In this context, the home appliance and automobile markets have grown exponentially. Banks and companies quickly followed up and issued a large number of relevant policies. For example, thousands of yuan of home appliances installments, such as loans to buy a car, and even zero down payment.

Stimulated by such a huge benefit, the car market has gone crazy, and many young people who have little money and really want to own a car of their own have plunged into it, and with it, there are more and more cars on the road.

The most critical change is that the general environment of the past two years has changed people's consumption concepts, and since then young Chinese have entered the era of spending future money.

Before 2008, cars were an unattainable luxury in the eyes of the general public, but this year, they have become a household necessity that can be owned through gritted teeth.

Unless there are special circumstances, the troops have to watch news broadcasts every day, so although Li Zhan is isolated from the rest of the world in a military camp at the foot of the border mountains, he has a very clear grasp of the major policies of the whole country, and his sense of smell is more acute than that of ordinary people.

Therefore, the purchase of a car was not impulsive, but a rigorous decision made after several hours of rigorous calculations and repeated arguments and analyses, combined with 2010 revenues and specific debts.

There is no pressure on the mortgage, Li Zhan even wants to pay it off early, he has money.

The two of them had a blank understanding of the automobile market in Nangang, and they told the taxi driver that he was even more excited than Li Zhan and the others, and they skillfully changed gears and fueled all the way to introduce them. It's just that Li Zhan has little interest in the several models pushed by taxi drivers.

After getting out of the car in the Motor City, Li Zhan asked Ying Wanjun, "What car do you like?" ”

"That's what I know." Ying Wanjun spread her hands and said, "The driving school is all Jetta." ”

"Jetta." Li Zhan quickly had many scenes of training car painting in his mind, frowned and said, "That car is too small and looks squeamish." I drove a heavy twin-engine, twin-tail fighter, and the car was too small to fit the style. ”

The two talked as they walked.

In front of the Great Wall 4S store, two girls wearing black professional suits and hating the sky and being 1.6 meters tall stood outside to solicit customers, one of them blocked the way, and lungeed to the store with his lower limbs, pointing to the store with one hand, and the other hand kept moving towards the store like directing traffic, and the other girl laughed and shouted in unison, "Welcome!" Welcome! ”

Diagonally opposite is the Mercedes-Benz 4S store, the whole store is deep and connotative, tall and beautiful female saleswoman dark blue tweed coat wearing flat shoes standing there with a slight smile to welcome visitors from all directions, low-key luxury fan.

"That's the big car." Ying Wanjun pointed to the H5 in the Great Wall store and said, this is not called H5 at this time, but Haval CUV, and Haval is not an independent brand.

Li Zhan glanced at it, and perfectly avoided it with Ying Wanjun before being grabbed by the arms of the two girls, and said, "Big is big, but the style is not right." You've seen the plane I flew, masculine and beautiful. ”

"You know, Su Liangqi, it's better than J-7, it's bigger than J-7, and it has two engines." Ying Wanjun said, "I still know some fighter models, but I really don't understand cars." ”

Li Zhan stopped, looked at the Mercedes-Benz shop, and said hesitantly, "Why don't you buy a Mercedes-Benz?" ”

"Don't buy it." Ying Wanjun didn't even think about it, shook her head and refused, "Looking at the decoration of their store, it doesn't fit your style at all, it's too high-profile." ”

"Why do I feel so low-key? They also build aero engines, and their technology is very good. Li Zhan said.

Ying Wanjun said, "You are developed, there is no need to spend so much money to buy a car, you go back to the army and I will go back to school, who drives it at home, even if someone in the family drives it, it is not like driving a Mercedes-Benz to travel." ”

"Then you'll be blind." Li Zhan scratched his head and said distressedly, "I didn't expect that there are so many models now, like mushrooms after a rain, piling up one after another." ”

Ying Wanjun looked around blankly, and suddenly pointed to a shop in the front corner and said, "How about that?" I see that many of the troops' vehicles are of that brand. Hey, it's Mitsubishi Motors, an SUV specialist. ”

"That's right!" Li Zhan patted his head, "How did I forget this." However, the original Mitsubishi is more expensive, or you can find Changfeng Cheetah. Let's go check it out first. ”

The two went straight to the Mitsubishi store.

Very low-key decoration is a very simple shop, there are not many customers, three or two around the small SUV, and Li Zhan saw the Pajero V93 placed on the ten-centimeter-high platform at a glance, and he decided at this moment. Sometimes it's normal to buy something just by looking at the first glance, picking and choosing between A and B for months and finally buying C.

"That's it, the car of the commander-in-chief of the army." Li Zhan pointed to V93 and said.

A young man greeted him and said, "Hello sir, do you want to see Pajero, the original imported, four-wheel drive off-road vehicle, Jackie Chan endorsement." ”

Li Zhan said with a smile, "I know this car very well. ”

"Sir, look at this configuration table, there are three configurations, the low configuration is 380,000, and the top configuration is 440,000." The young man enthusiastically introduced, and said the main points in and out of the words.

They can't sell a few V93s a year. The square shape, the high ground clearance, the ancient style of the interior has no large screen, and it sells 400,000 units, and the fuel consumption of 3.06 cylinders is touching, and almost no one buys this car as a family car.

Enterprises that need to run the construction site often like this kind of car, which is solid and durable, and has strong off-road ability. This is also the reason why the troops are equipped with the car in large quantities, and even Changfeng Cheetah has created a military version of the V73 specifically for the troops. This V93 is a facelifted version of the V73.

Li Zhan nodded slightly and asked Ying Wanjun, "More than 400,000, it's okay, that's all, right?" ”

"More than 400,000!" Ying Wanjun was speechless.

The young man is stupid in sales, that's all? Did you buy a car like that? It can't be true, right, it's almost time to get off work and tease the boring son? The key to such a young couple is how simple and simple the clothes are, and the Li Ning sportswear style worn by the man is still the old style last year.

At this time, when a house in the urban area is only 500,000 or 600,000 yuan, who will pay more than 400,000 yuan to buy a trolley? That must be a very rich man!

But these two are not like that.

"What is your surname, sir?" The young man is more enthusiastic in sales, no matter what, he has to greet him more enthusiastically, what is the difference between being a man without ideals and salted fish?

"Don't give your surname Li." Li Zhan replied with a smile.

Others standing there with straight waists and firm eyes are not ordinary people, young men are well-informed in sales, and they will not make superficial judgments based on clothing. Isn't there less of an example of a dog looking down on people and finally missing out on a big deal at the starting point?

"Beauty, your last name?"

"Yes."

"Mr. Li, Miss Ying, please sit here, sit down and chat slowly, drink something, there is Luo Han Guo ......"

"Just get some boiling water." Li Zhan said.

The two sat down on the sofa next to the Pajero V93, their eyes constantly examined the car, Li Zhan liked it more and more, Ying Wanjun looked at it and was very satisfied, and said, "The chassis is so high that it is good to drive in the village, and the road in our village will sink as soon as it rains." It's just too expensive. ”

"You get what you pay for." Li Zhan said.

Ying Wanjun asked, "Do you really want to buy it?" ”

"Buy, why don't you buy." Li Zhan calculated the accounts, "I had one million last year's trolley fee plus salary allowance or something, and I bought a car and a house, which is enough." ”

"Buying a house again? Not necessarily, right? Ying Wanjun couldn't accept it anymore.

The one in the county seat is empty for two old people, and it will be a waste to buy a house again.

Li Zhan said in a deep voice, "I feel that housing prices will rise sharply soon, so I can afford to buy a few more sets now, and I can rent them out if I don't live in the future, and if I need any money or something urgently, I can also cash out." ”

"Even if it rises, it won't go anywhere, and the per capita income is only how much." Ying Wanjun said.

Li Zhan shook his head, "No, I can say responsibly that it will definitely rise sharply, and it is very likely to rise to a level that is beyond the reach of most people." ”

"On the basis?" Ying Wanjun asked.

They are all high-achieving students, and the discussion becomes a serious academic exchange, so that the young man who came over with the water sat on the side and laughed and did not dare to speak.

Li Zhan analyzed in a deep voice, "The troika of economic growth, investment, consumption, and net exports. The main engine of China's economic growth is net exports, and the economic crisis of '08 has hit China's foreign trade hard, and the structure of economic growth has changed. The government's 4 trillion yuan economic stimulus plan is intended to make a fuss about investment, but infrastructure investment has been slow to bear fruit, and nothing can be seen in ten or eight years. In this case, consumption becomes the only straw. What could be more powerful than the purchase of real estate? When you see that house prices are rising, does it create a sense of urgency......"

The two discussed for more than half an hour, and did not stop until the young man's smile stiffened.

"Oh, buy a car, and we'll continue to talk about how to better serve the people tonight." Li Zhan said with a smile.

The young man's sales breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Li, why don't you take a test drive first, it's really a good car, especially easy to drive, and the power is very strong." ”

"Xiao Ying, you go for a test drive." Li Zhan said.

Ying Wanjun pointed to her nose, "I, I just got my driver's license......"

"Mr. Li, don't you test drive for a year?" The young man's sales smile was a little ugly, and he didn't take a test drive, so he was basically sure to come over to play.

Li Zhan said embarrassedly, "I don't have a driver's license." ”

"You're kidding."

Ying Wanjun said, "He really doesn't have a driver's license when he flies a plane." ”

"You're even more joking, huh."
