Paradise Island, there are two very famous industrial parks.

One is the Aviation City Science and Technology Industrial Park located in the northern suburbs, and the other is the Marine High-tech Industrial Park located in the southern suburbs.

Paradise Island Aircraft Factory, Tiangong Industrial Group, and Northern Aviation Power Manufacturing Plant, these three enterprises are the three pillar enterprises of the Aviation City Science and Technology Industrial Park.

The guiding principle of "production generation, research generation, and pre-research generation" is the core business philosophy of the enterprise that has been established at the beginning of the opening of the Aviation City Science and Technology Industrial Park.

The production of star-type air-cooled/liquid-cooled piston engines for aircraft has always been the fist product of Tiangong Industrial Group and Northern Aviation Power Factory. The study of axial turbojet engines is a key project of Tiangong Industrial Group and Northern Aviation Power Manufacturing Plant.

In order to avoid the enterprise from taking a detour and causing unnecessary waste of resources such as manpower, material and financial resources, Cheng Gong handed over the complete set of WP6 turbojet engine technology to Tiangong Industrial Group and Northern Aviation Power Manufacturing Plant as a reference blueprint.

Cheng Gong originally thought that the technical content of WP6 was enough for them to gnaw for three years and five years, but he never thought that it would produce results in less than two years.

Paradise Island Aircraft Factory, one of the key enterprises that Cheng Gong has supported from the beginning, is located in the northern suburbs of Paradise Island, with the production and development of training aircraft, strike aircraft, agricultural and forestry aircraft, coastal defense products, projectile looms, motorcycles and engines and other products as the main projects. It is the birthplace of the first piston engine aircraft manufactured by Donghua itself.

Since the establishment of the "Strong Five" project, the capital and equipment are sufficient, the production environment is stable, and there are as many scientific research talents as they want. And from time to time, academicians from the Royal Academy of Sciences come to guide the point. In such an environment, it is reasonable that the Paradise Island Aircraft Factory can produce results ahead of schedule.

After more than a year, when Cheng Gong came to the Paradise Island Aircraft Factory again, he saw the "Qiang-5" multifunctional fighter-attack planes and the "Qiang-5" carrier-based fighter-attack planes parked in the hangar, and almost wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.

You must know that what Cheng Gong handed over to Tianfei Factory was only the Qiang-5 light attack aircraft, and there was no information about the carrier-based Qiang-5. The front wheels of the carrier-based Qiangwu should be changed from the original single wheel to two wheels, which makes the structure of the entire nose wheel landing gear almost redesigned.

Don't underestimate this landing gear, which includes difficult technologies such as materials, structural design, and hydraulic cushioning. Structural materials alone are enough to make many companies in developed countries in Europe and the United States stop at the door.

It seems that this is the benefit of providing enterprises with independent decision-making and management! As long as there is demand in the market, they can give full play to the initiative of the enterprise. There is no need to wait for the higher departments to give them tasks, they just need to follow the compass of market demand.

One of the biggest conveniences of industrial companies on Paradise Island is that they never have to worry about raw materials. This is mainly because Cheng Gong did not leave an inch of land for metal smelting enterprises on Paradise Island in consideration of environmental pollution. All raw materials are supplied by the base for finished products, and whatever the needs of each company, it is enough to place an order directly with the Industrial Raw Material Distribution Center located in the lobby on the first floor of the Pentagon.

It is precisely because the enterprises on Paradise Island do not have any difficulties in the supply of raw materials, they only need to strictly control the precision machining technology, so they save a lot of manpower, material and financial resources for the enterprises, so that they have more resources to invest in product research and development.

It can be said that the enterprises of Paradise Island are taking the high-precision and sophisticated development route, while in the Donghua Empire, they are paying close attention to the construction of basic industries, including the application research and production of basic materials.

In the key enterprises of Paradise Island, the CNC precision machine tool of the single-chip microcomputer program belongs to the ordinary general machine tool. There are at least two large-scale five-axis linkage CNC machining centers.

The material problem has been solved, the precision machining problem has also been solved, and the design work has a reference blueprint. Thinking about the middle link, Cheng Gong was relieved.

His Majesty the Emperor arrived, Lu Haipeng, director of the Paradise Aircraft Factory, and Wang Yupeng, chief engineer, were naturally overjoyed, flattered, and shocked. Fortunately, Ning Haiyang gave them a message in advance, otherwise they would definitely have to make a mistake in a hurry.

In the first-line production workshop, Cheng Gong saw a lot of big-nosed and blue-eyed European technicians busy, some of them operating processed parts on the machine tool, and some instructing Chinese workers on the side how to master the finishing technology, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Expats who are able to work in Paradise Island companies are each required to sign a 15-year employment contract and confidentiality agreement. With Paradise Island's immigration management mechanism, no one would want to take away even one gram or two grams of metal chips or particles without Brother Xu. As for wanting to send information out of Paradise Island by telegraph, it is even more of a luxury.

So far, Paradise Island has never had a single leak.

After visiting the production line, Cheng Gong was accompanied by Lu Haipeng and Wang Yupeng to the general assembly workshop.

It is a large assembly workshop with a length of 500 meters, a width of 100 meters, and a height of 15 meters. When Cheng Gong walked in, there were ten fighters in the workshop that looked like Qiang Five, but were obviously different on a fixed workbench, and around each workbench there were more than ten or twenty staff members in blue overalls who were busy in an orderly manner.

Cheng Gong walked to the side of a Qiang-5 carrier-based aircraft that was debugging the folding wings, and watched with great interest as the workers and masters did various tests under the folded wings.

Compared with the prototype design of the J-5, the wingspan of this J-5 carrier-based aircraft is only 5.5 meters wide after folding from the wing knife. Flaps and side strips were added to the front of the fuselage, the tail was slightly enlarged, and the area of the ailerons was also increased moderately. The front wheels were turned into twin wheels, and a hook made of high-strength titanium alloy was added to the rear end.

After inspecting the folding wings, the group of workers then inspected the nose wheel landing gear. It took more than an hour to go back and forth before the Qiang-5 carrier-based aircraft was announced by a white technician who looked like a supervisor that it could enter the final test procedure.

Soon, a test pilot in his thirties boarded the plane and set off.

"Where did you recruit test pilots from your factory?" Cheng Gong looked at the Qiang-5 carrier-based aircraft that was slowly taxiing out of the assembly workshop, and asked thoughtfully.

"When I returned to the emperor, I asked Commander Gao Zhihang to ask my grandfather to tell my grandmother for a high salary." Lu Haipeng replied respectfully: "They were piston engine fighter pilots before, there are five of them in total, and now they can all fly jet fighters." The test pilot's surname just now was Zhao Husheng, who already had 1,500 flight hours and was one of the most technically experienced ace test pilots in our factory. ”

"Test piloting is a high-risk job." Cheng Gong said solemnly: "And without rich flight experience and technology, I can't be qualified for the job of a test pilot." Did any test pilot sacrifice accidents occur in your factory before? ”

"With the blessing of the emperor, so far, there has not been any accident in our factory where test pilots have died!" Lu Haipeng replied very happily: "We have a thousand instructions to every test pilot, as long as there is a problem during the test flight, hurry up and parachute." Although the plane fell quite a bit, our test pilots have not had any safety incidents. ”

Cheng Gong nodded slowly, and said with a serious face: "Director Lu, the production task of your factory will be very heavy next, and you have to send key personnel to assemble two strong five production lines with engineers and skilled workers from Germany and Japan."

I plan to put these two production lines in Nanhua City, Zhennan Prefecture, and you can start preparing from now on. In the next 20 years, your top five will be the fist products of China's exports, and a banner to carry forward the scientific and technological strength of our Great Donghua Empire! ”

"Your Majesty, isn't Qiang Wu for our Royal Air Force?" Lu Haipeng looked at Cheng Gong with obvious disappointment and loss and asked.

"Axial turbojet engines, I don't like them yet." Cheng Gong smiled and shook his head and said, "My air force must at least use turbofan engines!" ”
