Chapter Ninety-Six: And the Giant Bird No. 1 Transport Plane
This price is comparable to that of the B17 long-range bomber.
Of course, this is already very cheap, because in terms of complexity, Henan must be much more than B17.
Yunxia was transferred to the Second Aircraft Factory by the leaders of the Eighth Route Army to assist Duan Yunpeng in managing factory affairs, and Duan Yunpeng was happy.
Because Yunxia had been saved by him, she had always had feelings for him, and this time Duan Yunpeng also felt that she seemed to have another purpose.
But no matter what, Yunxia's arrival also made Duan Yunpeng a little excited.
So at this time, Duan Yunpeng was also thinking about how to fulfill the dream in his heart.
Today is a busy day, and tomorrow there is an important task, that is, the Giant Bird No. 1 transport plane will hold a ceremony off the assembly line, and the leaders will also have to see this new aircraft at that time.
However, with Yunxia to preside over the offline ceremony, Duan Yunpeng believes that everything will go very smoothly.
Duan Yunpeng returned to his home and took a hot bath.
Now that he is the director of the factory, it can be said that the treatment is also very good, because he is rich now, so the living conditions in the factory are many times better than when he first started.
After taking a shower, it was really refreshing, and the whole body was comfortable.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Duan Yunpeng opened the door and took a look, only to see that the person standing at the door was Yunxia with no makeup.
She was wearing a thin dress, and her figure was immediately revealed, and the neckline was even more beautiful.
Duan Yunpeng couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and then said, "Comrade Yunxia, why are you here?" ”
Yunxia blushed and said, "What's the matter, I can't come to you, the big factory director, of course I'm looking for you for something!" ”
Duan Yunpeng had no choice but to let Yunxia into the house.
Yunxia sat down, Duan Yunpeng poured her a cup of tea, and said with concern: "Comrade Yunxia, are you used to it now?" ”
Yunxia smiled and said: "Of course I'm used to it, in fact, although the original job said that the conditions were better, and I went in and out of high-end places, I still felt unhappy, because I always faced a lot of pressure, and now it's okay, I can finally work openly." ”
Duan Yunpeng said with a smile: "That's good, in the future, the production and management of weapons and equipment of our Eighth Route Army will depend on you." I'm mainly responsible for the technical side, so wouldn't it be nice for us to divide labor like this? ”
Yunxia nodded and said, "But I don't know a lot of things, I want to learn from you, and I'm here to learn today!" ”
Tomorrow's offline ceremony, Duan Yunpeng and Yunxia also discussed, to make it as exciting as possible, to the satisfaction of the allies and leaders.
You must know that the Giant Bird No. 1 transport aircraft can be said to be the largest transport aircraft in the world at present, and it uses an advanced turboprop engine with a carrying capacity of 20 tons, basically it is specially built for the Allies, and the Eighth Route Army will not be equipped too much, and it is enough to plan ten planes.
The Allies are very interested in this kind of transport aircraft and intend to order a thousand of them, so of course this time we must satisfy the Allied representatives.
Today's offline ceremony, the preparations were all arranged by Yunxia, and Duan Yunpeng felt that it was very good.
By two o'clock in the afternoon, the leaders and representatives of the Allied forces came.
In the assembly workshop, a huge transport plane was presented in front of the leaders and guests, this transport plane was really too big, beyond their imagination.
If you put the DC3 airliner in front of the Giant Bird One, it is simply a small point.
After all, the DC3 passenger plane can only carry as many people, twenty-one passengers, while the Giant Bird One can carry two hundred people.
Its length is nearly 40 meters, its wingspan is also 40 meters, and its height is nearly 10 meters.
The representatives of the Allied forces were shining with their eyes when they saw Giant Bird One.
You must know that such a large transport aircraft can not only transport equipment and personnel, but also be used for bombing.
Of course, Duan Yunpeng also has a plan, and when the time comes, he can use the Giant Bird No. 1 transport aircraft to convert it into a gunboat aircraft, which is a very good ground strike weapon.
The leader of the Eighth Route Army said even more excitedly: "Comrade Duan Yunpeng, Comrade Yunxia, I didn't expect you to build the Giant Bird No. 1 transport plane so quickly, it's amazing!" ”
Duan Yunpeng and Yunxia hurriedly said, "This is our duty. ”
Duan Yunpeng said: "Leader, our Giant Bird No. 1 transport plane is now ready to welcome the visit of the leading guests, and everyone can go up later!" ”
The leaders were overjoyed when they heard it, and this time they came to participate in the offline ceremony, of course, they had to take a look.
Next, Yunxia, a beautiful woman, personally presided over the offline ceremony, which attracted bursts of applause, and finally the leader spoke, the leader of the Eighth Route Army was very appreciative and full of pride, and then invited the representatives of the allied forces to speak.
The representative of the Allied forces, that is unstoppable, likes the Giant Bird One, and he said that the Allies will definitely buy more than 1,000 Giant Bird One transport planes.
This makes everyone happy, damn, how much does it cost to get a thousand giant bird No. 1 transport planes?
You must know that such an advanced big guy will lose money if he doesn't sell more than half a million dollars, so it will be 500 million dollars at that time.
It's not too much to make a hundred million dollars, so the future is worth looking forward to, and now the arsenal of China's Eighth Route Army is about to become an arsenal of the Allies.
A lot of advanced equipment is bought from here.
Next, the leading guests began to board the plane for a visit.
Entering the giant bird No. 1 transport plane, the huge cargo hold, the leaders and guests were all like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
It's really too big, it's nearly three meters high, more than three meters wide, and more than twenty meters long.
It was really a giant bird, and the Allied representatives all picked up their cameras one after another to take pictures.
After the visit, the Allied delegates were even more excited.
After all, one Giant Bird 1 can transport 20 tons of supplies, which is equivalent to ten DC3s, and its range is even longer, reaching more than 3,000 kilometers.
With such advanced transport aircraft, the Allies could deliver equipment and personnel to the battlefield faster, which was an absolute nightmare for Germany, Italy and Japan.
Of course, it was just a purchase, and the Allies were still not satisfied, and they also put forward a request for licensed production, which of course was no problem, as long as the money was definitely paid, it could be done.
So the final result of the negotiations was that the Allies would directly purchase 1,000 Giant Bird 1 transport planes, and the additional licensed production would be unlimited at a fixed price of $100 million.
And this billion dollars will arrive in a month.
It can be said that now the Eighth Route Army, relying on Duan Yunpeng, has made a fortune, and the income in a year is higher than one-tenth of the GPD of the whole of China, that is, almost a year's national fiscal revenue.
