Chapter 215: National Gift T-72
Wang Ye deeply agreed with Committee member Shu's statement.
In this era of lack of materials and lack of culture and entertainment, this huge screen must cause an unimaginable sensation, and this sensation is the best advertisement for the Red Star TV.
"Okay, Commissioner Shu, you guys are busy! I'll go first! ”
"When it's ready, it's time to start lighting up the test, remember to find someone to call me!"
"Also, pay attention to safety when working at height and handling!"
After watching for a while, Wang Ye briefly admonished him, and then took Bai Tingyu back to his office, and after Bai Tingyu made tea, he went back to the office next door and sat down.
In the room, only Wang Ye was left.
Sitting on the chair, Wang Ye casually picked up a dried shrimp and chewed it slowly, and thoughts kept flashing in his mind.
At present, the development of the consortium is stable and improving, in terms of scale, it already has three manufacturing bases, including the headquarters machinery factory and the steel plant, the army's modification plant, and the shipyard of Yuntai, and thanks to the recent provincial industrial chain conference, the production capacity of the consortium has been greatly improved.
Because the non-core parts are all subcontracted out through outsourcing, and it is no exaggeration to say that the cost of most of the parts is much lower than that of the consortium itself because of the production scale and equipment specialization of the outsourcing plant, but there are more people making money, and countless factories in the province are very happy.
After all, these researchers, from all over the motherland, different research institutes, in a sense, the joint embodiment is standing on the shoulders of the national industrial giants, coupled with Wang Ye's participation, sufficient financial investment, the development speed naturally began to soar.
Although it can't be called a technical blowout, Wang Ye believes that this day will not be far away!
Secondly, in addition to the technical problems, a step has been achieved at the manufacturing level, that is, the arrival of these Toshiba machine tools has greatly enhanced the precision machining and manufacturing capabilities of the consortium, and with the continued delivery in the following year, this ability will continue to improve until it reaches the leading level in China.
But in any case, now the consortium has entered a stage of benign development, because a large number of orders are added to the consortium like coal, and burned, and then the steam train of the consortium can "woo woo" to rush forward!
"In less than a month, we will see the New Year."
"The main task before the Chinese New Year is to engage in production and pave channels, production, on the one hand, the delivery of desert orders, on the other hand, the delivery of Pakistani orders, and finally the production of picture tubes, compressors, televisions and other civilian goods."
"As for the sales channels, the current channels in the province have been completely connected, Li Baojun went to Yanjing, Xu Jiaojiao went to Shanghai, Zhang Bing went to Yangcheng, the warehouse and the store have been coordinated, and preparations are underway before the opening, and the next is the issue of industrial transportation and Spring Festival listing."
Thinking of this, Wang Ye took a sip of the teacup, when determining the sales channel, everyone held a meeting to discuss, and the first batch finally determined the three places of Yanjing, Shanghai, and Yangcheng, and the reason is also very simple, they are the capital, the most prosperous city in China, and the pioneer city of opening up.
Of course, with the development of the domestic economy and the increase in sales, the channels will definitely become wider and wider.
"As for the new year, there will be more work to do."
"The military industry is first of all the 130 tank destroyer project, after having a machine tool, there is no shortage of gun barrels, and the test of the artillery will be very fast. The tractor can't be done for a while, and the domestic 59 and 69 chassis are too small to fit? Gotta think of something else. ”
Thinking of this, Wang Ye couldn't help but sigh, because there were no heavy tanks in China in the past, so now there is not even a borrowed one, which is very head-catching!
"Then there is the large eight-wheeled assault armored vehicle project, the chassis and the large frame of the body have been designed, and after a simple tinkering, trial production and testing can begin."
"In addition, the promotion of the military heavy truck project is also quite smooth, and it is estimated that it will be finalized in March and April, and then trial production and testing."
This heavy truck is not the other heavy truck, and now there are three heavy truck projects in the consortium, which are heavy truck train projects that rely on liberation trucks to be modified, which have been tested on a large scale and started to be used on a large scale within the consortium, as for the official listing time, it is expected to be after the Spring Festival.
In this project, Wang Ye referred to the mainstream truck project in the United States, that is, the long-head truck, which is the kind of Optimus Prime deformation, rather than the flat-head truck introduced from Europe in normal history, for two reasons, one is that the engine compartment of the long-head truck is large, and the size of the engine is small, and the other is that the long-head truck has stronger off-road performance and is suitable for the current domestic bad roads.
The third is the military truck project, which is the internal code name "round log transporter" project, which is a multi-axle military heavy truck, emphasizing load, off-road and passability, and will be used in the future for the chassis of the 59-p rocket launcher, after all, the 59 tank is too small as a rocket artillery chassis and runs too slowly, just a stopgap measure.
"The rest is missile boats!"
Thinking of the missile boat, Wang Ye couldn't help but sigh, now the workers in the shipyard are recovering very well, but there are workers alone, without engineers and senior technicians, they can't support the factory!
"Yes, before the Chinese New Year, I have to go to Yanjing to find the fate of the Fifth Machine Department and the Ministry of National Defense!"
"And it's just this trip to talk about the National Military Industry Chain Conference and Mitsui."
"That's it, there's no need to worry about it."
"If the personnel can be complete, I will go to work in the factory, according to the middle of March can start drawing, then production will start in May, maybe in August?"
"After all, it's a small boat, it's not a big problem!"
In the end, Wang Ye's eyes flickered slightly, and he continued to think in his mind.
"Finally, it's next year's two big projects."
"The 'agricultural and sideline food' project that will start in the spring and the 'oil base' project that will start after the New Year."
"Now that the price of oil has risen, the Soviet Union has breathed a sigh of relief."
"However, their current food is still relatively scarce, and secondly, their oil exports, because of the restrictions of the United States, have led to fewer countries buying countries, and the price still cannot be raised."
"I've got to 'help' them!"
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Wang Ye's face.
In fact, the two projects of agricultural and sideline food and petroleum industry are complementary to each other, the source of equipment for the oil base is Mitsui, only after the official start of petroleum smelting, the consortium can produce its own fertilizers and pesticides, and the land can get twice the result with half the effort, but it will take at least a year for the oil base to be built, so it can not rest after the Spring Festival, Wang Ye is ready to engage in greenhouse mushrooms first, canned mushrooms are in great demand in the Soviet Union and Europe.
As for oil, after the first batch of oil storage equipment was built, Wang Ye would find a way to import oil from the Soviet Union, and now the international oil price continues to rise, although the oil price of the Soviet Union has also risen, but it is not as much as the international oil price, because many countries, such as Japan, at the request of the United States, cannot buy oil from the Soviet Union, and have to go to the desert to buy oil.
In this way, Wang Ye can make a price difference, import oil from the Soviet Union at a low price, process it, and then sell it at a high price.
"When are you going to Yanjing?"
Just as this thought flashed in Wang Ye's mind, suddenly the phone rang!
"Hello? Who is it? I'm Wang Ye. ”
Wang Ye picked up the phone, and as soon as he reported to his home, he heard the familiar voice of Director Liang on the other end of the phone, and at this moment he said with a smile:
"It's me, Lao Liang, Wang Ye! I have something to tell you! ”
"That prince of Saudi Arabia is coming to visit, the one who is good friends with you, what is Sattler! The time is the 21st of this month. ”
"I hope you can go to Yanjing on the 20th, and then greet you the next day!"
Hearing this, a stunned expression appeared on Wang Ye's face, he didn't expect Sattler to come so quickly!
After a few simple greetings, Wang Ye hung up the phone.
Regarding the fact that Sattler wants to come to Huaxia, Wang Ye is not surprised, after all, the scientific and technological cooperation project needs people of his level to come for an interview, but now it is only more than two months before he returns to China, and he came in a hurry, obviously not because of scientific and technological cooperation.
In Wang Ye's opinion, there is only one fundamental reason, that is, they are a little unbearable!
In fact, this point has long been expected, after all, what kind of combat effectiveness Saudi Arabia's young master soldiers are, Wang Ye knows too well, and those allies of Saudi Arabia, such as Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman, are basically half a catty, so with the increase in the scale of the attack, Saudi Arabia is bound to introduce foreign aid.
Then the problem arose, the Soviet Union struck first and dragged Pakistan with India!
"The United States did not take direct action, although it was unexpected, but it is understandable."
"That actor has just been on stage for two years, and the United States has just ended the 'good guy era', and it is not so oppressive, nor is it so crazy to fight, and that Medal has shown extreme aggression in the past ten years, and it is obvious that the United States does not want to have any head-on conflict with the Soviet Union in the desert, otherwise it may be out of control."
"So Sattler came this time, on the one hand, for weapons? For example, the highly effective anti-aircraft weapons mentioned earlier, and also for the 59-p rocket artillery? On the other hand, for people? They are short of manpower! ”
"Weapons are easy to say, but what about people?"
"Find a way to match them with Tanzania? Or take the opportunity to set up the security company that was proposed earlier, and then send someone over directly? The United States seems to have acquiesced? After all, it is impossible for them not to know that Sattaler is visiting, and since they know and do not express it, it is tacit approval! Of course, this is not entirely certain. ”
"But the effect of the latter is certainly beyond doubt."
"However, I don't want to be sacrificed because of the war!"
At that moment, Wang Ye couldn't help but let out a long sigh, then picked up another phone on the table and contacted the two relevant committee members one after another.
"Our anti-aircraft rockets can start production."
"Our 59-p can be put to production!"
After giving these two orders, Wang Ye let out a long sigh, and he was not even in the mood to eat dried shrimp.
The next few days were busy with the whole consortium.
On the one hand, it is for Pakistan and desert products, which are constantly transported from the factory, and then go straight to Qindao Port, on the other hand, compressor products, which are constantly sent to other manufacturers in the province, and finally TVs, light trucks and pickup trucks, which are also loaded and started to be transported, and the targets are Yanjing, Shanghai and Yangcheng.
Soon, the time came on January 20th.
Wang Ye came to Quancheng accompanied by four inch-headed guys, and took the train straight to Yanjing, just when Wang Ye was sitting in the car eating and drinking with the four young men.
A few thousand kilometers away in Saudi Arabia, on the outskirts of Riyadh, a military base.
"Sartler, I'll leave it to you."
"If the contact is successful, I will visit again in April and May."
"Then negotiate and decide in one fell swoop, preferably before the fall, to finalize the foreign relations between our two sides and complete the dispatch of personnel."
In the airport, countless ground staff are busy, only to see that on the tarmac, there are five planes parked at this moment, the one on the left is the 747 business jet belonging to the Saudi royal family, and the four on the right are the C-130 transport aircraft belonging to the Royal Air Force.
And next to the tarmac, I saw Prince Durt and Sattler standing opposite each other, Prince Durt took Satale's hand and shook it vigorously, as if he was asking for it, and Sartler's expression was also very serious, looking at Prince Durt and nodding vigorously and said:
"Yes, uncle, I'll do my best!"
"Make a good foundation for your follow-up visits."
Hearing Sattaler say this, Prince Durt couldn't help but smile, and then said:
"You're already a full-fledged politician, and I'm actually very relieved."
"It's just that Ling's father still seems to think that you are very young, so he is more worried."
Speaking of this, the uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, and then Prince Durt looked at the transport plane not far away, and then smacked his lips and said:
"As a first-time visit, this gift should be enough, right?"
Regarding Prince Durt's statement, Sattler next to him nodded with a smile and said:
"Of course it's enough, it's two T-72 tanks!"
"And it's almost not destroyed, I think they should be very happy, after all, my friend once said that he would love to get a T-72 for research, so I guess, now they don't have this kind of tank, in Huaxia's words, our gift is completely a charcoal in the snow!"
Recently, the fighting in the north and south of Saudi Arabia is very intensive, and in general, both sides have losses, but Saudi Arabia's losses must be greater, after all, they are guarding the oil base, and the losses of the armed groups are mainly personnel and various weapons, plus the Soviet Union has also invested heavily this time, in order to pose a sufficient threat to Saudi Arabia's M60 tanks, it directly supported the T-72 tanks to the armed groups, so Saudi Arabia got a lot of "loot wreckage".
Just like the two T-72 tanks that have been disassembled and are being loaded with aircraft, they are one of the good goods.
So after deciding to visit Sattaler, the old king, Prince Durt and other high-level officials discussed and referred to a lot of information, and decided to choose two T-72 tanks in good condition as a welcome gift for the first visit, of course, the original meeting gift is still there, including ivory sculptures with desert style, and gold handicrafts and so on.
"However, the United States did not object."
"To be honest, I was surprised by this, I thought the resolution would not be enforced."
Finally, Sartler looked at the tank parts that had been fully loaded with the plane not far away, and said to Prince Durt, who was next to him, and Prince Durt said with a smile:
"In my opinion, there are no more than three reasons."
"First, since they can't give us more support, then we must be allowed to ask for help from other countries, otherwise if we fail, their dream of increasing oil production will have to be fulfilled for another twenty years!"
"Second, I think your three-country game theory is valid, and now the entire desert area is actually on the verge of being very dangerous, and the United States hopes to bring in the power of the east to cool down here to a certain extent."
"Thirdly, it is clear that the United States is pulling them together against the USSR, so naturally they have to pay a little price, and the T-72 tank is nothing at all."
After all, the tank is huge, and it is difficult to transport, plus this is also sensitive equipment, and it is impossible to completely hide it from the United States, so after the original plan was decided, there was no special secrecy from the Americans, and it looked like they were not afraid of you, but in the end, the Americans did not say anything, and then the time came to this day.
At this moment, the tank has been completely transported to the plane, and the hatch is slowly closing!
"Go ahead! Sartler! I await good news from you! ”
"May God bless you!"
Finally, Prince Durte waved his hand and said, and Sartler nodded and boarded the plane, and a moment later five planes took off in quick succession, and finally flew east.
In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Ye arrived at the consortium's office in Yanjing.
Because now the consortium has begun to expand the sales channels of Yanjing, the consortium office in Yanjing has also been established, and the current person in charge is Li Baojun.
"Director! I want to kill you! ”
The moment he saw Wang Ye, Li Baojun almost cried, he had been stationed abroad for more than a month, and his busy work and the fact that he had been away from home for so long for the first time, he naturally couldn't help it when he saw Wang Ye.
"Get out! Is there any interest? Is this material for big things? Hurry up and hold back those two points of cat pee and let the guy see the joke, right? ”
Hearing Wang Ye say this, there was a burst of laughter at the scene in an instant.
And the depression and sadness of the original expatriate leaving home were swept away for a while, and then Wang Ye waved his hand and said:
"Let's go, report to me in person."
"How about I hear how it goes?"
Li Baojun nodded, and then everyone came to the conference room of the office, and then chatted directly from five o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock in the evening, after listening to Li Baojun's report, Wang Ye was still satisfied overall, and finally praised everyone in the office, affirmed their work in the past, and hoped to make persistent efforts in the future.
That night, Wang Ye naturally stayed overnight in the office, and finally didn't have to live in the guest house.
At seven o'clock in the morning the next day, a special car came to pick up Wang Ye, and arrived at Yanjing International Airport at eight o'clock.
At half past nine in the morning, the Boeing 747 business jet finally appeared in the sky, followed by four younger brothers!
"Ha, it's worthy of a prince, and the pomp is big!"
"Just use the 747 as a business jet, you have to follow four transport planes and get your luggage! Tut-tut! ”
Seeing this scene, the old man Wei Qingshan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
