Chapter 644: Buying a Plane (Part 1)

Liu Hai actually wanted to do this thing for a long time, but there has been no good entry point, so this time with the return of Dabao Erbao, Liu Hai simply did this thing.

In fact, sometimes it is not appropriate for the official to say certain things with great fanfare.

Because before you don't have the absolute power to take revenge, it's best not to mention some things, and it's actually a shame for yourself to mention them.

But if Bangs does it privately, there is no problem at all.

As for other follow-up questions, step by step, Liu Hai also has a general plan.

Sun Aiguo naturally knew the meaning of Liu Hai taking Dabao Erbao to participate in the trip, and he also admired Liu Hai in his heart.

"Then you'll take a few more days off." Sun Aiguo spoke again.

"A week or two is fine, and some things are gradual, and it's not suitable to do too much at once." Bangs nodded.

"Yes, we want to show all the hardships of our predecessors when they built this country, so that future generations can see." When Sun Aiguo said this, he thought of his former comrades-in-arms, and he felt panicked in his heart.

The whole room fell silent for a while, Sun Aiguo thought of many of his comrades-in-arms, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In the end, it could only turn into a long sigh.

However, thinking of the current development of the country, Sun Aiguo felt very relieved, and felt that the sacrifices of his comrades-in-arms were not in vain.

In fact, in this era, various schools are doing well, and there are activities such as spring outings almost every year, and there are even activities such as sweeping the graves of martyrs.

It's just that with the implementation of education industrialization later, schools only pay attention to grades and no longer pay attention to others.

Liu Hai used to read books when he was a child and participated in the spring outing and Arbor Day every year, but when it came to the next generation, there were few such activities.

Of course, there are also some people who collect money in the name of research.

"Director, doesn't Bald Eagle plan to sell us planes?" Bangs asked.

The reason why Liu Hai asked this is that in history, McDonnell Douglas Company was ready to sell the technology of the DC9 and DC10 aircraft to us, and then work together to develop the large aircraft project Yunten.

Our time as good friends with Bald Eagles is not really determined by how strong we are, but by how strong the fat bear is.

Now the fat bear is the first in the world, not to mention, although in the face of some big countries in the East to pick up their own hair, the bald eagle is very annoyed in his heart, but he also has to hold back, but also to show goodwill to some countries in the East.

Of course, it would be more willing to sell some tatters to bald eagles in some countries in the East.

The DC10 plane is in Baitou, because it is definitely in tatters that everyone thinks in China, and the name of the king of air crashes is not called in vain.

Of course, what to say about the project of Yun Shi, on the one hand, it was because it was poor at the time, and on the other hand, the fat bear next door fell too quickly.

At that time, McDonnell Douglas intended to sell the entire technology to us, but there were two aspects that did not make a deal at that time, the first was the problem of money, there was no money. The second is the overall supporting industrial chain.

The production of large passenger aircraft requires a forging machine, and we did not have it at that time, so even if we bought the technology, most of the parts had to be imported.

Some people think that instead of importing parts, it is better for us to produce them ourselves, so we cooperate with McDonnell Douglas to develop Yunten.

This idea is actually good, but the fat bear fell too early, if the fat bear persists for a few more years, then our aircraft project will definitely be completed.

As for the later dismounting, there are many problems in this, of course, there are reasons for the project itself, and there are also reasons for foreign capital.

Of course, the main reason for getting off the horse at that time was that it was too poor, and the research and development of our big black fish was interrupted for 15 years, just because there was no money.

Later, many media said that a certain department did not allocate $35 million in R&D funds at that time.

In 2020, it may seem like $35 million is not much, but at that time, it was an astronomical amount.

And as far as Liu Hai knows, one $35 million is far from enough, I'm afraid 10 is not enough.

This is not to mention all the upstream and downstream industrial chains that are matched, and the parts add up to an astronomical number.

And 10 pieces of 35 million US dollars were enough to buy a full set of production technology for DC9 and DC10.

"How do you know?" Sun Aiguo was a little puzzled when he heard Liu Hai ask.

"Who is the Bald Eagle? Seeing that our country's aircraft research and development is in full swing, he must want to insert a lever, and now that the fat bear is so strong, he will definitely release more goodwill to us. ”

"We don't need his technology in the automobile industry, and the shipbuilding industry doesn't need his technology, so the only technology that can show favor is the aircraft." Liu Hai got up and poured Sun Aiguo a glass of boiled water, and at the same time filled his teacup with water, and then explained.

"They have this proposal, but the plane they want to sell has a bad reputation, and it is said that they have the title of the king of air accidents in their country." Sun Aiguo shook his head and said.

"The King of Air Crashes?" Liu Hai asked when he heard this.

"It's this McDonnell Douglas DC10, and the higher authorities didn't pay attention to their proposal." Sun Aiguo said.

Liu Hai knew why the higher authorities ignored this proposal, that is, at this stage, there are not many civil aviation missions in our country.

The use of Yun-9 aircraft to convert passenger aircraft into passenger aircraft will be more than enough for our country, after all, those who can take planes now are on official business.

No one can imagine how many civil airliners in our country will increase many times in just a few decades.

"If the higher authorities don't want to, I can personally fund the acquisition of technology." Liu Hai certainly knows how awesome McDonnell Douglas' big plane technology is.

The three-engine airliner does have such and such problems, but it is not unreasonable that the three-engine airliner is strong.

The Bald Eagle army is still in use when the 60 tankers converted from the DC10 series of transport aircraft are still in use when they cross the bangs.

The DC10 series of transport aircraft is called mad dog in the industry, this guy is fast and pulls a lot.

In fact, after careful study, 99% of the series of passenger aircraft accidents in DC were caused by ground support, as for why these things happened, of course, some companies want to annex others for ten years.

Just like framing others during the business war, Liu Haihai has heard one thing in his life, there is a hot pot restaurant in Shudu, which is very popular and tastes very good, and some peers spread rumors that this hot pot restaurant uses the kind of oil pulled back from the crematorium.

Although the hot pot restaurant in the back tried to clarify, and the official also came forward to clarify, it was useless, and it quickly collapsed.

Rumors are like small compositions, as long as they happen to you, no matter how you defend them, they won't have any effect.

There are three types of DC10 aircraft, which are DC10-10, DC10-15, DC-10-30.

And Liu Hai also knew that in 1979, the DC10 series aircraft would be grounded because of two major aviation accidents a year, if he found someone to talk to McDonnell Douglas now.

When things happen next year and the world is grounded, you may be able to pick up a bargain.

For capitalists, as long as they can sell for money, they will definitely sell, as if the price offered by McDonnell Douglas to us in history is 450 million US dollars, and after the grounding next year, this price can be lowered a lot.

In the late '70s, no capitalist would refuse a deal worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

And there is a sentence to say, the bald eagle's position in the international arena is much weaker than in history, at least the two guys Niu Niu and Gallic chicken are temporarily supported.

"Do you really want to buy it?" Sun Aiguo was also a little surprised that Liu Hai wanted to buy the technology of this aircraft, in Sun Aiguo's opinion, Liu Hai's own research and development was not very good.

"It's also good to buy it back for reference, and it can also give us a look at the overall aircraft manufacturing technology of Bald Eagle." Bangs are mainly because there is no place to copy such a large plane.

Otherwise, the bangs can also be done by themselves.

"I'll report this to the top, and there is nothing wrong with it in theory." Sun Aiguo didn't dare to call the shots, so he spoke.

"Hmm." Bangs nodded.

After Sun Aiguo left Liu Hai's side, he hurried to report to the higher authorities, and Sun Aiguo's first report was not that Liu Hai wanted to buy a DC10 aircraft, but that Liu Hai was going to visit the museum with his two children.

Because in Sun Aiguo's view, the matter of bangs is far more important than the matter of buying an airplane.

"Comrade Liu Hai's idea is very good, so I will come up with a relevant plan as soon as possible." The higher-level departments are willing to spend $100 million to build various museums and $50 million to make documentaries.

In the eyes of the leaders of the higher-level departments, Liu Hai took out so much money, in fact, he was supporting the industry.

Liu Hai took his son to visit, and he didn't need so much money, but it was not the first time that Comrade Liu Hai gave the money he earned to China.

Over the years, awards have been given to outstanding students, two universities have been created, aircraft carriers have been purchased, and so on.

"There is also the fact that Comrade Liu Hai is very interested in McDonnell Douglas aircraft...... Sun Aiguo reported on the work again, and then talked about the conversation between Liu Hai and himself in detail.

"Comrade Liu Hai's vision is really accurate, a large number of our cars have entered the Bald Eagle market, especially pickup trucks, which makes Bald Eagle very dissatisfied, and has been shouting that we will make their money and not buy their things."

"But they don't sell too high-end fighters, we want to buy all kinds of advanced fighters from them, they just don't sell them, they sell us some grain and scrap iron." The leader of the higher department smiled.

"Last year, you talked to us about the plane, and we didn't realize it at the time, and the bald eagle not only wanted to make money but also wanted to make bad things, and now when you say this, you will understand."

"Since Comrade Xiao Liu is willing, then we can talk to Bald Eagle." The leader of the higher department spoke again.

"But will there be some problems here, after all, if such a large company is set up by a private person?" Sun Aiguo asked a little hesitantly.

"This is very easy to solve, talk about it first and then listen to Comrade Liu Hai's opinion, this kind of project can not be successful in a while and a half, two or three years is the norm." The leader of the higher department shook his head and said.

"Then thank you, leader." Sun Aiguo nodded.

Liu Hai received Sun Aiguo's answer to himself later, and he was relieved, now there is still a little time before 86 years.

In 86, the West saw that the fat bear was not good, and the advice of the fat bear to the Western experts was to bow down, so the whole deal should be completed before 86, and now it seems that the timing is completely fine.

"When the fat bear is gone, and the bald eagle has his hands free to clean up the cows and Gallic chickens, then he can gather the wool of the cows and Gallic chickens." Liu Hai was thinking in the maintenance department that he would get along with the bald eagle at this stage, and when the fat bear was not good in the late 80s, the bald eagle would definitely target the cow and the Gallic chicken.

Niuniu's aero engine technology is also world-leading, otherwise Airbus would not be the only company to compete with Boeing.

"When the time comes, depending on the situation, maybe you can pull Airbus along, and then it will become a three-way confrontation situation, and McDonnell Douglas has collected a sum of money from itself, maybe it won't have to be acquired." Liu Hai was thinking about the future of the aviation industry in his heart, and he felt that it was too different from history.

"Anyway, we just guarantee our own domestic market." Liu Hai didn't think about distinguishing the cake of the international aviation industry, as long as he could hold the cake of our country.

"In addition, personal computers should be built, which is also a money-making business." Liu Hai knows that Apple launched its first personal computer last year.

But the most successful personal computer was the 5150 launched by IBM in 1981, and there were 240,000 orders in the first month of its launch.

The configuration of the 5150 was very good for the time, with a 16-bit 4.77MHz Intel 8088 microprocessor, 16KB (expandable up to 256KB) of memory, data can be downloaded and stored using a cassette tape, and a 5.25-inch floppy disk.

Of course, there is also some office software.

Of course, this thing is also very heavy, weighing nearly 12 kilograms, and a single keyboard can reach 2.7 kilograms.

It was IBM's computer that established IBM's supremacy in the personal computer industry.

Winner takes all, and that's true in any industry.

"Strive to get lithium batteries out as soon as possible, and make the world's lightest laptop first." In terms of personal computers, bangs did not find a suitable entry point.

Because even if we produce personal computers in China, the price configuration is not as competitive as that of foreign countries.

And IBM started producing commercial computers decades ago, and it has a strong background.

If you want to do it, you have to make a name for yourself, so bangs have never reached out in the field of personal computers.

However, after the lithium battery comes out, the notch can be the most convenient and lightweight laptop in the world.

I believe that with this gimmick, my laptop business can flourish, and at this time, a top-of-the-line personal computer is more expensive than a car.

Apple's 1,300-dollar PC in 1977 was not as expensive as the Beetle at the same time.

Of course, these computer enthusiasts don't care about the price, so IBM's top-of-the-line version of the PC can have 240,000 orders a month.

"Personal laptops promote the development of our country's semiconductor and computer industries as a whole." Bangs know how much laptops are sold around the world.

Of course, no one would have imagined that it was the mobile phone that defeated the computer industry.
