In order to show his support for United Aviation and Contini, a disciple, the Minister of Aviation, Du Hei, also inspected the scene, although he was very satisfied with the construction situation in full swing, but after seeing these Wanguo brand aircraft, he knew clearly: the War Department probably cleared all the non-Italian-made big war aircraft to Contini, as for whether United Aviation can take over, whether it can operate after it, and whether it will lose money after operation, the other party does not consider it at all. Faced with this situation, he was quite helpless and said embarrassedly: "Calais, it's hard for you, I didn't communicate well in advance......"

"Teacher, don't feel guilty, I think it's good." Contini smiled slightly, "It is obviously a disaster for an army to maintain such a complex system and a shortage of spare parts, and even more so in war, it is a nightmare for all logistics units." So the War Department is right, although they will soon separate the Air Force from independence, but they did not leave it alone, but used their brains, since it is to throw off the burden, of course, it must be thrown off thoroughly, comprehensively, I don't think there is anything wrong with them. It is also unthinkable for a civil airline to maintain a fleet of this size and system, which will greatly increase costs.

However, United Aviation is not an ordinary civil aviation, it is a new type of aviation business that integrates the Second Air Force, civil aviation, aviation training, aircraft manufacturing, and aviation clubs, and so many different types of aircraft give me a lot of choices. In terms of maintenance and upkeep, it is obvious that a variety of aircraft will greatly test the mechanical level; From the perspective of training, students and enthusiasts can try different styles and experience different fun; For me, who is interested in moving into aircraft manufacturing, a deep understanding of these foreign aircraft will help me better grasp the trend of technological development and the direction of future change.

In the final analysis, it is not economically cost-effective to get so many planes, but the problems that can be solved with money in this world are not a problem, at least not a big problem. ”

Du Hei couldn't help but roll his eyes, he had seen such an arrogant, but he had never seen such an arrogant one, how could such a low-key character as old Ziano give birth to such a high-profile and boundless son? He thought, "This is a very similar character to that of a leader, and it is no wonder that Mussolini is always full of praise when he mentions it." Of course, he knew that Contini was not bragging, and many people knew about this kid's speculation in Germany, but everyone thought it was 2 or 3 million dollars, who would dare to think that there was still 10 million in front of him.

"Since you said that you are going to get involved in the manufacture of aircraft, what angle do you plan to start with first......

"First, we can eliminate the parts that can't be started."

"For example?"

Contini walked up to a French-made Newport fighter, patted the engine and said: "This is an aircraft with relatively strong tactical performance that the French have studied in the Great War, and it has also installed a machine gun synchronization coordinator for the first time, but I think it can be ruled out that although the performance of the 9-cylinder rotary cylinder engine installed on it is okay, but the development ends here, and the aircraft engine will be the world of fixed cylinder star air-cooled and V-shaped water-cooled engines in the future, and I will never invest a penny in the field of rotary cylinder engines." ”

"You seem to know more about technology than engineers, and those technicians haven't dared to conclude that 80% of the planes in the last war were rotary cylinder ......"

The rotary cylinder engine generally presents a star-shaped layout structure, the cylinder rotates when working, the higher the power, the faster the rotation, although a part of the connecting device can be saved, but the huge inertia and waste of work brought by it is difficult to overcome, and with the increase in the number of cylinders and the increase in engine weight, the cylinder will encounter a natural upper limit, and then all the air-cooled engines become cylinder fixed, piston movement and drive the pulp blade to rotate.

"Do you remember what I said?" Contini took a deep breath, "Only by subverting the past tradition and mainstream can we achieve revolutionary innovation, if we only spin on the cylinder, we will not be able to achieve a leap!" ”

Du Hei was finally defeated by this momentum, and shook his head helplessly: "Okay, I know if you don't do the rotary cylinder type, so what do you want to do?" Don't say that you have to start with the engine to build an airplane. ”

"The teacher knows me so well...... There are two sentences in the aviation industry, the first sentence is called insufficient power shape compensation; The second sentence is that as long as the power is enough, the bricks can also fly into the sky. ”

"Why haven't I heard of this, did you make it up yourself?"

Contini found that he had missed his mouth, and hurriedly said: "This is my preliminary summary of the relationship between power, shape and manufacturing, a good aircraft, the shape design, materials are of course important, but more important is the engine - this is the heart!" In addition, from the perspective of industrial synergy, China's advanced military engine industry can also complement the motorcycle industry, after all, there is also an engine on it. ”

Contini still has a sentence to say: when I enter the automotive industry in the future, these engine design and production experience can also be used, don't you see Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Ros-Royce are all aviation and vehicle giants? There is even a basis for the introduction of tanks and armored vehicles.

"Well, what do you want to build?"

"Air-cooled and liquid-cooled are two-pronged, the air-cooled imitation target is the J-1 engine of Lawrence, and the imitation target of liquid-cooled is the BMW V engine, and by the way, it is mixed with the Eagle engine of Rolls-Royce."

Lawrence J-1 is the ancestor of the star-shaped air-cooled engine, although only 200 horsepower, but opened up other roads other than the rotary cylinder type, deeply loved by the United States Navy, in order to help the company expand its scale, produce more products, the United States Navy specially matched the Wright company to acquire Lawrence Company, Contini knew that a series of famous air-cooled engines such as wasps, double wasps were started from this source; As for BMW's liquid-cooled engine, it was still famous before the 30s, and it could keep pace with Mercedes-Benz products, and after Mercedes-Benz completed the development of the DB series engine, BMW gradually fell behind, and then finally transferred to the air-cooled engine, and Rolls-Royce's products are currently very famous in the aviation industry, and they are the predecessors of the famous Merlin, Griffin, Saber and other engines.

"Can you bring in these technical materials?" Du Hei was taken aback, "These are all the fist products of various companies, Fiat has long tried to introduce technology patents, but it has not been successful, are you sure you want to do this?" ”

"That's what they did wrong." Contini smiled slightly, "Lawrence will soon be acquired by Wright, and it will not be so important to the technical patents of early engines, as for BMW...... If you want to sell it, you can sell it, and I won't be reluctant to sell it, and Luo Luo products will definitely not open up technology licensing, and those British guys will not even let go of local enterprises, so how can they open up to Italy? ”

"And what do you do?"

"Technology is dead, people are alive...... BMWW...... The Franco-Belgian forces were about to enter the Ruhr area. ”

Listening to the other party's words that are not related, Du Hei was stunned for a moment, and then recalled: Once the German economy collapses, a company like BMW will definitely experience a serious blow, unemployment and layoffs are inevitable, and then you can let go of the solicitation, and if there are people, are you afraid that there will be no drawings? - Isn't it all in my head!

"As for Roll-Royce's products, it's simple, off-the-shelf with an Eagle engine, and when the time comes, it's good to let the engineers reverse it......"

"Child, patent law, patent law, even if BMW doesn't settle accounts with you, the British will definitely come to you."

"Patents? Oh, there is still this thing in the world, thank you for reminding me ......" Contini patted his head and pretended to be surprised, "I plan to use Rolls-Royce's 12-cylinder V-shaped liquid cooling technology ideas, BMW's design capabilities, relying on Italy's industrial production model to launch a new engine, this engine will be the culmination of the industrial crystallization of Britain, Germany and Italy, whose patent am I infringing?" ”

"Don't say that I didn't warn you beforehand when the British came to your door." Du Hei could see that this kid didn't understand patent law, and he clearly didn't want to pay the transfer fee - although it was likely that others didn't want to transfer either.

"I almost forgot to tell my teacher one thing, I used to be in the law department of the University of Rome, and now I have only transferred to the history department, and the most famous judges and lawyers in Italy are either graduates of the University of Rome or the University of Bologna, and many of them are my seniors, which side do you think they will be on? I've never been optimistic about the British coming to Italy to fight patent lawsuits, and I'll spend money to play with them if they want to come...... As for the UK, I never expect these things to be sold to the UK in the future, and it is useless for them to win the lawsuit! Provoke me and eat Rolls-Royce in the future! ”

He paused, and said triumphantly: "As for Germany, it's too late for them to thank me, you must know that Germany is not allowed to develop military aircraft according to the regulations, if you make me happy now, I don't mind sharing a little fighter or bomber information with them at that time, it's better than them sneaking in the Netherlands to secretly develop, don't think I don't know what they are doing in the Netherlands and Sweden, teacher, we are the victorious country!" Will I get a bonus if I report to the Franco-British Regulatory Commission? ”

Listening to Contini say such ruffian words in a solemn manner, Du Hei was really convinced, he could be regarded as having learned the rogue style of this student - it was really not bad at all compared to the leader, and even had a tendency to catch up! What a good hand to be a politician!

He never imagined that although he had not yet made the engine eight words, Contini's hooliganism would soon break out, and the first unlucky person would be Matteotti, the secretary general of the Socialist Party and a member of parliament......
