After preparing to go to the Commission of Science and Technology to learn about the progress of the domestic early warning aircraft was delayed by the sudden Cai Honggui, Chang Haonan simply did not worry anymore.

just made a phone call and told Ding Gaoheng that the goods had arrived in Romania, and began to continue to deal with the matter at hand.

The main negotiations were with Eurocopter Group, Fiat Ferrari and several research institutes in Russia for the export of the Dawning 2000T.

After all, for Huaxia, the matter of selling supercomputing abroad is still the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, and when she bought supercomputing in the past, the other party's contract was full of various unequal clauses, which really has no reference significance.

So everything had to be explored from scratch.

As for the Hudong shipyard......

First, there is no rush for the time being.

The shipbuilding industry is basically considered on a ten-year cycle, and even if he dies, it will be shortened by 50% at most to five years.

After all, no matter how strong the level of technology research and development is, the ship must be built slowly from the keel.

Second, it's useless to be in a hurry.

The lack of personnel in the Torch Group, especially the lack of pioneering talents, is basically impossible to solve in a few months.

After all, numerical computing is still an emerging discipline.

Although in the past two or three years, Chang Haonan has almost single-handedly made this direction a popular place for graduate school.

But now, less than two years have passed since he compiled that textbook.

Even if it was Beijing Airlines University, which was the first to open this course, the first batch of students to take this course......

Forget it, not to mention students, Chang Haonan, as the editor of this book, still has half a year to officially graduate.

Others, even for a master's degree, have to wait another year, for a doctorate, at least three years.

And other universities, even the fastest, are a year behind BJC.

At present, a group of people with a relatively high level in this direction are mostly following Chang Haonan to do projects, and they are basically distributed in the two major systems of aviation industry and weapons industry.

In this way, it seems that the only people who have the ability to carry this banner in a short period of time are the senior sister who is about to graduate, and Professor Yan Yongnian, who followed several backbones who participated in the research and development of the die forging press throughout the process......

Whoever wants to work with him will have to wait until the second half of the year.

As for the matter of domestic AWACS, he decided to wait a little longer.

……

March 25, morning.

Chang Haonan specially pushed off all today's schedules and arrived at the Science and Technology Commission early in the morning.

Since living in the same family area as Ding Gaoheng, he quickly learned that because his home is still some distance from the unit, if Ding Gaoheng catches up with the busier time, he will directly live in a room next to the office that is specially packed into a temporary dormitory.

At the end of March, the meeting was just in time for the conference, and it was the time for the axis to turn.

Therefore, although Chang Haonan arrived earlier, when he walked into the director's office, Ding Gaoheng was already sitting inside and began to correct the documents.

"Xiao Chang?"

Ding Gaoheng raised his head, and was stunned when he saw Chang Haonan, and immediately stopped the pen in his hand:

"Why did you come to me so early today?"

Under normal circumstances, if an outsider wants to meet the director of the Tangtang Science and Technology Commission, it must be an appointment.

But Chang Haonan's identity is now difficult to be called an outsider, at the beginning, the doorman had to register according to the visitor, and later it was estimated that he was instructed by Ding Gaoheng himself, anyway, he can now directly brush his face and go out.

So Ding Gaoheng didn't know that Chang Haonan would come over.

"There is nothing to do with the group today, I just heard that you and the big leader went to Nanzheng to inspect a while ago, and it is estimated that you should go to the air police 200, so I took advantage of today to ask the chief's attitude......

The latter said as he put a thermos bucket on his desk:

"Aunt Nie asked me to bring it by the way."

"Hahaha......"

Ding Gaoheng heard Chang Haonan's intention, and suddenly let out a hearty laugh:

"I was still thinking a few days ago, you should have heard the news a long time ago, why didn't you come to look for me, and you didn't talk about it when you called last time, but it turned out to be ...... today."

Chang Haonan said that I really wanted to know for a long time, but when I first wanted to come, I was interrupted, so I simply left it until today, as a reason for coming to the Commission of Science and Technology.

After all, as it stands, it seems that his actions have not yet reached the point where they can affect the situation in Europe thousands of kilometers away.

The coalition side still gave an ultimatum on the 19th, while the other side, like the previous one, finally refused.

And March 25, Beijing time, is the day when the "Allied" operation began in the original timeline.

Of course, if it goes exactly the way it was, by now the air strikes should have been around for a few hours.

However, in 1999, before the media was as developed as later generations, the coalition forces initially cut off the entire Balkan network signal, coupled with the electromagnetic interference that accompanied the first wave of attacks......

In short, there is generally a lag in obtaining news in China.

Moreover, after all, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry is not a foreign affairs and military command organ, and Ding Gaoheng is not one of the State Commissions, so the order in which he receives the notice must be leaned back.

Therefore, Chang Haonan's trip is to witness history with the other party.

Of course, if nothing really happened, then he just thought he was really here to talk about domestic AWACS......

But this idea can obviously only be buried in the heart, and there is another set of rhetoric on the lips:

"I really wanted to come here before, but just in time for the official release of TORCH Multiphysics, I'm so busy these days that I can't walk away with my foot hitting the back of my head, isn't it that I'm here early in the morning as soon as I'm free......

"When the big leaders inspect, the statement on the spot is generally just a formality, especially when it comes to major decisions, it is even more impossible to make a rash decision, so strictly speaking, this matter has not yet been settled."

Ding Gaoheng said and screwed the cap of the fountain pen, and leaned his upper body back on the back of the chair:

"However, the chief himself also knows some technology, and he asked in detail on the AWACS aircraft at that time, and if you want me to see it, I should be quite satisfied on the whole."

"Overall?"

Chang Haonan raised his eyebrows and asked.

Obviously, this statement means that the chief is still dissatisfied.

"Hmm...... The main reason is that I am not very satisfied with the range and speed of the aircraft, after all, the foundation of the Yun-8 Class III platform is really not good, even if the 182 factory changes it, there is no way. ”

Chang Haonan had already gone to Ding Gaoheng's house for two meals, and the latter naturally didn't treat him as an outsider, and started eating breakfast in front of him:

"But don't worry, I've already revealed what you told me before, using the C909 airliner as a platform to change the plan to a large AWACS aircraft."

"Although this matter has not yet begun, after all, radar and airplanes are things that can be seen and touched, so they can't be regarded as shadowless......

"What about the Ring Project, what do you say?"

Chang Haonan is most concerned about the attitude of his superiors towards the ring project.

The actions on David's side should be similar to the previous life, it is nothing more than a desire to refuse and welcome, and the set that hangs this side with sunk costs is nothing more than some kind of enhanced version of PUA.

But this kind of thing belongs to the bystander Qing and even the latecomer Qing, if you are not mentally prepared in advance, and there are not many chips on your side, it is still easy to take the bait.

Fortunately, in this life, we already have an AWACS model in our hands that is about to make its first flight, and it is not considered that it has no initiative at all.

"Originally, in fact, the superiors were still a little hesitant."

Ding Gaoheng stopped his chopsticks, raised his head and replied:

"But a few days ago, the Davids began to behave again, refusing to install a radome for the first flight, not to mention, and even sent guards to guard the Il-76 24 hours a day, not allowing our technicians to get close, saying that they were worried about technology leakage......"

"Heh......"

Chang Haonan almost laughed when he heard this:

"They're doing us a great favor now......"

Ding Gaoheng also shook his head helplessly:

"Who's to say it's not...... When I reported the matter, the chief didn't say anything, but I guess...... After this meeting, a decision will be made. ”

"I just don't know if the 350 million paid in advance can be successfully returned......"

"It shouldn't be a big problem to get the principal back."

Chang Haonan casually continued:

"Liquidated damages...... It may depend. But in any case, it is much more important than the 350 million to let the superiors focus their attention back on the domestic early warning aircraft, rather than just being a backup project. ”

"yes......"

Ding Gaoheng nodded, and just as he wanted to continue to say something, the red phone on the corner of the table rang.

Chang Haonan's face froze.

"Hey, I'm Ding Gaoheng."

“……”

Chang Haonan, who was sitting on the sofa next to him, naturally couldn't hear the content of the phone, but from the other party's instantly tense expression, it was not difficult to guess the content of the phone.

After a while, Ding Gaoheng's chest moved slightly, obviously taking a deep breath:

"Okay, I got it."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

"Director Ding, this is ......"

Chang Haonan naturally had to pretend.

For Ding Gaoheng, the news on the phone was unexpected.

After all, they had been preparing for this for a long time, and they must have expected such a day.

But when the news actually came, shock was inevitable.

After calming down a little, Ding Gaoheng raised his head again and looked at Chang Haonan:

"The coalition forces launched a combat operation codenamed 'Allied forces' in the early hours of this morning."
