Chapter 360: The Dealer's Means (Part 3)
So the British military submitted a detailed modification plan to the parliament, and some people in the parliament immediately stood up against it, thinking that it was a waste of taxpayers' money.
"These bastards of the military just want to use our tax money."
"The old-fashioned things that were designed 25 years ago still cost so much money to modify."
"It's just rubbing our IQ on the ground, and I suggest just scrapping it."
"It's still a backward steam power."
"It is impossible to scrap it for scrapping, after all, it was only in service for 61 years."
"I propose to investigate thoroughly, why was it launched in 45 years and entered service in 61 years, and how much taxpayers' money was wasted in between?"
So a group of parliamentarians began to fight in parliament, and the media, of course, followed and reported.
This incident caused a lot of uproar, and it is even said that some officials in the bear country said that the three warships of the Imperial Navy on which the sun never sets are rags from 25 years ago.
Many military experts have also said that these three ships are indeed a bit backward and are not worthy of our current British navy.
Then it was rumored that Britain was going to sell these three ships, and there were still many people who asked, but the price of Great Britain was very high, and after many people from other countries asked, they said in the open media that if you can sell it at this price, then there will be ghosts.
At this time, the British military said that it must not be sold below this price, and if it is lower than this price, we will directly modify it.
That's right! It is to refit two ships, and the other one is used as a spare part.
At this moment, some of the council masters are unwilling, you renovate two ships and dismantle the other one, which is scrapping in disguise.
As a result, there were reports in the media, and various experts came out to suggest.
It was suggested that all three Tiger classes should be sold, and then one or two more advanced warships would be built with the money.
When they heard that new warships were to be built, some experts naturally jumped out and asked how to build new warships.
However, no one has made an offer yet, because the asking price is too high, and even those media in North America have laughed at the whimsy of the British side, who would spend so much money to buy your design 25 years ago.
Still shouting loudly on the side, there are similar ones on our side that are cheaper, and they have been tested in actual combat, and they are better than some that have not been tested in actual combat.
As a result, the media on both sides began to fight with each other, and the parliamentarians on both sides also fought with each other.
Then, someone quietly raised their hand, I want to buy it.
North America is definitely reluctant, and countless media and lawmakers immediately jumped out.
But the media on the British side also fought back, including the parliamentarians, who also shouted for our affairs, we make our own decisions, and we don't need these nouveau riche, cowboys, and rednecks to guide us.
Others said, since you are against it, then we will sell it to you at this price.
Of course the big brother in North America is not willing, World War II itself built a lot of ships, to buy your high-priced rags, really when we are fools.
Even Xiong Guo stood up against it at this time, in fact, it was better for Xiong Guo not to stand up.
Xiong Guo stood up against it, and Dai Ying immediately said that he wanted to learn from Gallic chickens, and you two big bosses wore a pair of pants to suppress our side, and we also had to withdraw from the North Atlantic.
In the end, the North American side stopped talking, and if you talk again, you will wear a pair of pants with the bear country, otherwise why is the bear country against it, and you are also against it.
The North American side finally reached an agreement with Great Britain, that is, it can be sold, but some sensitive equipment has to be dismantled.
Twenty-five years ago, things were sensitive to fart, and missile racks were a little sensitive.
The reason why the mainland is willing to buy it is, on the one hand, it really likes this giant ship cannon, and the steam-powered leather is durable.
There is also the dealer who is willing to take credit, and in addition, the follow-up will be acting, and the price will naturally come down.
So one day later, under the supervision of Big Brother North America, the equipment was dismantled, and one of the ships caught fire due to improper operation, .......
So the other two ships were reduced by 15% because of the dismantling of sensitive equipment, and as for the one that was burned, it was only 30% of the original price, and it was bought back as a spare part.
This is because it is recommended to be scrapped after evaluation by a professional body, as there are likely to be some potential risks associated with continued use.
A bunch of sub-media scolded, it was you who made a moth in North America, which made us lose a lot of money.
As for how serious the fire was, media reports and evaluation agencies said that it was very bad, but it is difficult to say what kind of fire it was.
Anyway, ordinary people don't have a chance to go in and look at it, and even if they do, they can only see a piece of black and black.
As for those who question it, they will immediately get into more trouble because of corruption and other things.
A group of dealers with Ying, how much money they have made by relying on the mainland over the years, you must know that this group of dealers is pinching both ends.
On the one hand, the export of these products from the mainland, and also the many merchants in the United Kingdom, because the mainland imports other materials and so on, so the influence of this group of dealers in the world will grow with the growth of transactions.
When Liu Hai heard the news, he was also shocked, and at this time the construction of the first passenger plane was basically over.
"It's basically a certainty." Sun Aiguo reported the news.
Bangs also breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, at this stage it is better to buy this kind of service than to buy a little more front, if you buy the kind of long-term service, buy repair, maintenance, modification, etc., it costs money and time.
This kind of 61-year-old service can be used when you get your hands on it, and there is no need to do any maintenance and maintenance at all.
It seems that the price of buying this is a bit high, that is, those cheap goods in the past, when you buy it, you look cheap, and when the delivery is successful, maybe it will be more expensive.
If you don't have the ability to maintain and modify yourself, when others have the final say, it will be tantamount to putting yourself on the chopping board and letting others pick up and drop the knife.
The third brother of the later generations is an example.
The reason why I dare to buy these three ships is because there are a group of dealers who will not be pitted.
"It's a good fit!" Liu Hai thought about it carefully and found that these three warships were just right, because everyone has different positioning, we are positioning regional defense, and the sun never sets the empire or positioning the global navy.
So the sun never sets on the empire, and the warships that feel backward are, in our opinion, enough.
And we don't have it ourselves, it's good to be able to buy it, although it was designed 25 years ago, but it was only in service in 61 years, and the proper beauty is ninety percent new.
Moreover, this kind of ship leather is durable, and basically only backward and scrapped, not to say that it is broken.
"But the missile system was dismantled." Sun Aiguo sighed again.
When Liu Hai heard this, he didn't feel anything, it is unlikely that the original will be sold to you, there are too many relationships in it.
Not only is the big brother of North America, the bear country, and the United Kingdom itself, if it is not demolished, there will be a bunch of people who come out to find things, but also give the North American nouveau riche a step, otherwise this guy may want to trouble us.
"But it's not bad, no, let's develop it slowly, it's better than nothing." Bangs said this on his lips, but he had a plan in his heart, that is, the helicopter should be taken out as soon as possible.
and then found that he was originally going to get on a 2000-ton ship, and this plan can be dispensed with,
These three 10,000-ton warships are enough for us to use for 20 years, and at least for 20 years, these three 10,000-ton warships will still be considered to be the handle in our area.
Then change it, fix it, and get the helicopter right yourself.
Of course, there are also people who oppose it, no matter how backward it is, it is a 10,000-ton warship, and before the British side has not reacted, the big brother in North America began to ask the other party not to make trouble, you can also buy it from me, my side of the ship is rich in tonnage, fifty percent new, eighty percent new, ninety percent new.
And the price is very cheap, so there are some clever .......
However, no one said much about the transaction of Great Britain, because everyone is watching the excitement now, after all, the south is hot.
Xiong Guo didn't have any opinions, after all, the missile rack was dismantled, and it was just a ship with cannons.
And Xiong Guo is busy supporting his little brother to fight against the other side.
Twin-engine passenger aircraft conduct ground tests, and a group of leaders come here to experience it, even if it is taxiing on the ground.
Bangs also looked at the plane, and he couldn't get this kind of plane at all.
"Forget it, the propeller plane is not passionate, and I will fly the supersonic plane when I get it later." Bangs had to comfort himself like this.
It's already early November '66, and this year is coming to an end.
Liu Hai is going to design a gadget, which is to use photovoltaic power generation or wind power generation to make some radio transmission equipment for the southern island to locate the aircraft.
Monocrystalline silicon was successful in the laboratory of Laomei more than ten years ago, and it was only in the 70s that the oil crisis broke out, and photovoltaic power generation ushered in great development.
The construction of this solar-powered radio signal base station on the island is more expensive, but it is very beneficial for our flight.
Of course, it can occupy a place.
At the end of November 66, the twin-engine civil airliner was approved by the ministry and began to officially start production.
The production of passenger aircraft is much more complex than the production of cargo aircraft, and the various circuits and systems involved in it also require other supporting factories.
Now Bang Hai is in trial production, mainly to prepare for the process of mass production later.
After mass production begins, the bangs can be taken off, not that the bangs want to be handed over to others, but no one dares to take charge of this matter.
After all, the people in the motorcycle factory have never touched airplanes, let alone civil aircraft.
Even the technicians who produce cargo planes are numb when they see the various systems involved in civil aircraft.
I thought that the production of cargo planes was troublesome enough, but I didn't expect that passenger planes were even more troublesome.
More than half of the day is spent in the passenger aircraft production workshop.
The motorcycle factory is famous in the country again, and it is the first short- and medium-range passenger aircraft designed and manufactured by our country.
The internal reports of various departments are praised, because there are too many mothers-in-law above the motorcycle factory.
At present, except for the department engaged in atomic energy, the rest of the departments are in-house to report and reward the motorcycle factory.
Newspapers and radio stations have made several special reports one after another.
Liu Hai also doesn't read newspapers, and he doesn't have a radio, it's not that he can't afford a radio, but Liu Hai doesn't have time to listen to the radio, and if he has time to listen to the radio, it's better to go to the aircraft carrier space to read some reference books.
Even when Liu Hai returned to his hometown, people in his hometown knew that the factory where Liu Hai was located was to build airplanes.
There is no way to hide this, after all, the plane is so big, and it flies around the motorcycle factory all day and night during the test flight.
However, this plane has not attracted much attention in the international community, because the hardware facilities of this plane are too backward, it is more than 20 years ago, and even some people can't find an excuse to say a few words.
It's just that a few little Karami, who coaxed this patrol plane, scared the fishermen of their country into jumping into the sea, lost the fishing boat, and got sick with a cold.
It also interferes with the normal work of their fishermen, and they do not rest on Sundays, and come to walk around every day.
However, there was no repercussion in this matter, and several major countries did not look at it.
Because this kind of patrol aircraft is simply garbage in the eyes of the big countries, it flies slowly, and the firepower is not good.
The little Karamis are very uncomfortable, because the big countries feel that there is no danger, but for themselves, it is a great danger.
The fishermen of Little Karami were terrified, but they were helpless, because they were flying in the sky.
"Today I heard good news!" At the end of November, Sun Aiguo walked into the office in the aircraft workshop with a smile on his face.
Liu Hai was working in the office, and when he heard Sun Aiguo's words, he asked curiously: "Have you started to pay benefits?" ”
"No, last time I said that a few of our neighbors went to Big Brother North America to buy a boat at a low price, and I said at the time that I didn't expect it to be so cheap."
"As a result, the equipment on the ship was not enough to support the voyage, and many parts had to be maintained.
"Our neighbors will definitely not want to, but if they don't give money, they won't be able to drive away at all, our neighbors say no, the other party says don't want to, but now stop in the port every day to give money."
"Our neighbor directly said that he would take it and demolish it, and the big brother in North America said that he would also pay for the demolition."
"This matter is making a lot of noise outside, these guys now have to pay a lot of money for modifications, and I guess there may be more money to pay later." Sun Aiguo also laughed when he said this.
Bangs are not strange, the last time I knew the news, I knew that someone was going to suffer, the capitalist low-priced things, you dare to get started?
"Who makes them like to take advantage? If we didn't have a deep interest relationship with dealers, it wouldn't be so smooth. ”
"It is said that the man on the other side of the sea was sick with anger, after all, it is three 10,000-ton warships."
"It's useless to be angry, we haven't done business with his backers."
"It's just that a lot of equipment has been dismantled, and it is said that it has been driven back from there, and it can be driven back to China before the Chinese New Year, mainly because our people have to participate in various trainings halfway, which is an extra lot of money." Sun Aiguo spoke again.
The third watch is complete.
