The plane came to a steady stop.

The shuttle car quickly leaned over and set up a gangway in front of the hatch.

A flight attendant opened the hatch and smiled and waved her hand downward, but the drone camera noticed that the makeup on her face was completely gone.

The 168 passengers and crew members who participated in the passenger test immediately walked off the plane through the gangway.

"It's hard, comrades, it's hard."

Elders No. 1 and No. 2 were also present at the scene, personally putting garlands on all the participants in the test, shaking hands with them cordially and greeting them warmly.

The significance of this passenger test is even greater than the realization of manned spaceflight!

Because country Z realized manned spaceflight more than ten years ago, domestic large passenger aircraft have only been officially mass-produced today.

From this, it can be seen that the difficulty of developing large passenger aircraft is even higher than that of manned rockets.

Now that country Z has made such a major breakthrough, how can it not attach great importance to it?

Chen Jin also found his father Chen Gang among the many passengers.

I was taken aback!

Hurriedly walked over.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? ”

Chen Jin looked at his father Chen Gangdao, who was crying with another person.

The engineer who was held by Chen Gang helplessly explained: "Your father is different from me, he only cares about taking pictures with his mobile phone on the plane, and I can't cry." When I got off the plane, your dad became like this, and it made me want to cry again. ”

"Then leave my dad to me."

Chen Jin nodded at him, grabbed his father's arm, and let his head rest on his shoulder.

Dad Chen Gang continued to cry like a child:

"Son, it's been twenty years, almost twenty years, and my dream has finally come true."

"I'll tell you the truth, I haven't been on a plane in 18 years, and I've forgotten what it's like to fly. It's not because I don't have money, it's not that I don't have opportunities, I'm a researcher involved in domestic large passenger aircraft, it's my shame to be a foreign plane, and I vowed to get on a plane of our own construction and tour all over the country. ”

"But your dad is useless, he has been working for more than ten years and is not famous, and when he is about to retire, he doesn't know if he can get on the plane he built, and he still relies on foreign countries for core parts."

"You've done me a favor, son, if it weren't for you, I don't know how many years it would take for my dream to come true."

"Son, thank you, dad wants to thank you!"

Chen Gang cried as he said in pieces.

Chen Jin patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Dad, don't cry, I really didn't help anything, even if there is no me, our big plane will definitely succeed, there is a credit to you, you have always been my pride!"

"No, I'm just a mediocre person, son, you are my pride."

Chen Jin shook his head helplessly.

At this time, my mother He Li came over, and when she saw this scene, she was moved and funny, patted her husband's back and said: "How old are you, you still cry like a child, and you are not afraid of other people's jokes, don't cry, don't cry, the celebration banquet is about to start, go to the celebration banquet." ”

Chen Gang was a little embarrassed to be said by his wife, wiped his eyes with his hand, and smiled awkwardly: "Okay, good." ”

Chen Jin shook his head with a smile, feeling that his eyes were a little strange, and when he wiped it with his hand, his hands were full of water.

……

The news of the successful test flight of the mass-produced C919 with passengers quickly spread all over the world.

France.

Safran headquarters.

Hertman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the group.

He watched a 24-minute edited video.

His eyes were full of incredulity, and his face was full of disbelief.

Pressing the replay button, he watched the video twice more and kept his eyes wide open, but he never noticed any problems.

"Fully loaded with passengers, taking off and landing twice, flying 5,800 kilometers in a straight line, which would never have been possible with our LeapX engines!"

"Our aircraft of this class fly up to 4500 km."

"But they flew an extra 1,300 kilometers......"

"Could it be that there is a space-time wormhole between the two airports arranged by the people of country Z, which shortens the distance by thousands of kilometers at once?"

"Otherwise, how can they still have fuel to return home?"

It's just that the term space-time wormhole is too self-deceptive, and there really isn't any problem with this video.

He can only come to one conclusion that he does not want to admit: the engine of the Z people should not be bad.

The level is at least comparable to that of the LeapX engine!

With the C919 fuselage weight 15% lighter, it has an additional range of 1,300 kilometers.

He calculated the time again, from August last year to April this year, a total of only 8 months, the people of country Z have overcome advanced engine technology and solved the problem of core parts supply.

It's shockingly fast!

I looked at the video again, after the plane landed, the faces of countless ordinary Z people showed surprises and proud expressions.

The fanatical, determined, deep light in his eyes, and the tears contained in them.

Hear the tsunami-like cheers of the mountains.

Hetman hit a spirit.

The soul seems to be stimulated.

Gritting his teeth, he couldn't help but say, "M people, you fools! ”

He immediately picked up the phone and called Flannery, the head of General Electric (GE) in country M, asking for the immediate lifting of the engine ban and regaining the market in country Z!

even scolded: "I said a long time ago, don't underestimate the people of country Z, don't anger the people of country Z!" They can't hurt our bodies, but they will kill our wallets and make us all destitute, which is a punishment worse than death! You repeat your stupidity over and over again! ”

"Lift the embargo! Immediately, immediately! Say another sorry to the people of country Z, they will consider buying our engine! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Flannery didn't reply, but said yes again and again.

……

Five days later.

After various professional arguments and analyses, after fully confirming that country Z has broken through the advanced engine technology, the parliament of country M finally relented and voted to cancel the ban on civilian engines with 55% of the votes in favor and allow the LeapX engine to be re-exported to the market of country Z.

The ban was cancelled.

Hetman immediately called He Jinlong, the boss of COMAC.

Because the two had a good personal relationship, Hetman called He Jinlong an "old friend".

"Hey, my old friend, I have very good news for you! Thanks to my efforts, the Congress of Country M has agreed to lift the ban on the sale of LeapX engines! ”

"Sadly, it's over, and you can buy it again."

"Buy as much as you want, the price is 15% lower than before, old friend, let's re-sign the contract."

On the phone, Hetman's enthusiastic voice said. He also believes that He Jinlong will definitely buy it, after all, a newly developed engine has huge research and development costs, and the price will never be cheap.

Listen to the translator after he translates.

He Jinlong was slightly stunned.

"Sorry, no!"

He hung up directly.
