It is not easy to estimate that this kind of machinery and equipment makes small-caliber barrels, but this large-caliber barrel is simply a perfect match!

In the past, it took one or two months, from the billet forging to the opening of the hole, the expansion of the chamber, step by step, the manufacturing process is complex, and the manufacturing cost is high, but now, it only needs to be simply put on this forging press a few times, and it is made.

The cost of manufacturing is reduced, and there is the possibility of large-scale equipment for the troops!

As for the chamber pressure?

The chamber pressure of large-caliber artillery is not high, even if it does not use tall electroslag remelted steel, only the current steel can be used to ensure a chamber pressure of more than 300 megapascals, and this level of artillery is enough to have this kind of chamber pressure.

When they heard that the high-pressure pipelines needed for the thermal power plant had been produced on a trial basis, the leaders of the troops in the capital were moved, and Li Runzhu had just come back and had not seen Qin Feng yet, and he missed it very much, so he brought technical personnel over.

At this time, Zhuang Shuren, the engineer of the 203mm gun, was also very excited, he looked at Qin Feng, his eyes were full of anticipation.

This level of cannon barrel should be able to be made, right?

"If it is this caliber, the chamber pressure that can withstand it should be higher." Qin Feng said: "I think it should be fine. ”

Under the same pressure, the smaller the billet is pressed, the denser the inside of the billet is, and the greater the pressure it is subjected to. It is equivalent to squeezing the entire barrel, which is many times stronger than the self-tightening process of the barrel!

"That's good news, then we'll wait!" Zhuang Shuren said excitedly.

"By the way, do you still have a connection with Dr. Bull?" Qin Feng asked.

"Of course, during the development of the 203mm howitzer, we also occasionally wrote to Dr. Bull to ask him some technical questions." Zhuang Shuren said.

"Okay, then you can contact him again, just say that we have advanced production equipment in the East, and are currently producing thick-walled steel pipes with an inner diameter of 800 mm, with a pressure resistance of 300 megapascals, these steel pipes can also be used as high-pressure oil pipelines, see if he is interested, if he is interested, please come and have a look."

High-pressure oil pipelines? Zhuang Shuren was a little puzzled, the oil pipeline does not need too high pressure, the viscous crude oil in the pipeline is not fast, and the pressure resistance value of ten megapascals is enough! The oil pipelines are all thin-walled steel pipes, the kind of steel plate winding, and there is no need for such thick-walled steel pipes.

Moreover, Dr. Boole is engaged in artillery, what is he going to do with the oil pipeline?

Wait a minute!

Can you think of using thick-walled steel pipes as cannon barrels, but what about Dr. Boole? I must be able to think of it, Dr. Boole is also engaged in super cannons, and he likes large-caliber steel pipes, and this 800 mm inner diameter is just enough for Dr. Boole to use!

Thinking of this, he looked at Qin Feng's gaze with an extremely complicated gaze: "Mr. Qin, let's send a fax to Dr. Bull, this is faster." ”

In this era, the network is not yet developed, international contacts are very complicated, making international long-distance calls, telegrams and faxes, are common ways, among which the fax machine is mainly used to transmit documents and photos, hearing Zhuang Shuren's words, Qin Feng also immediately expressed his affirmation: "Okay, then use fax, send the test report and photos of our thick-walled steel pipe to Dr. Boole!" ”

Li Runzhu: What a coincidence!

Just negotiated an agreement with the Yankees, Qin Feng was still thinking about how to connect with the seller, after all, the seller was still at war, and it was not very convenient to go over to talk about business, but as a result, the troops came, and they could also connect with Dr. Bull, now they can talk about business here, which is much more convenient than running over!

Li Runzhu's eyes were suspicious, looking at so many people present, he didn't ask anything, and when the on-site inspection was completed, Zhuang Shuren went to fax with the information, and Li Runzhu followed Qin Feng to the office, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"Xiao Feng, what do you want to do?"

"I don't do anything, I just sell a few thick-walled steel pipes."

"I'm afraid it's not a thick-walled steel pipe, but a cannon pipe, right? You're going to sell this tube as the barrel of a supercannon to Dr. Boole, no, to Irak? ”

"I sell thick-walled steel pipes, oil pipelines, and civilian products, Leader Li, I don't understand what you're talking about."

"You kid, don't pretend to be confused with me." Li Runzhu said: "What, are you still afraid that I will leak secrets? ”

"Alas, Leader Li, I'm protecting you, if you don't know, you can clear up the relationship, if you know, then if something happens in the future, you will have to be implicated."

"Lao Tzu is not afraid of being implicated, say!"

"Just now the Americans came to me and wanted to get a batch of accessories for their MiG-29 pesticide aircraft, but this spare parts can't be obtained from East Germany, otherwise it will be exposed, so I can only find a way from other countries equipped with MiG-29 fighters, and Yilak is a good choice."

This is Qin Feng's real purpose!

At the beginning, I said to Lao Maozi that it was okay, buy a MiG-29 and come back to spray pesticides, and I don't need radar or anything, if I go over this time, it is enough to make the other party suspicious, if I even want a radar or something like that, I can't let Lao Maozi go crazy at the moment.

Therefore, it can only be started from a third party, but fortunately, the MiG-29 is not only for its own use, but also exported in large quantities, and has been equipped with several countries, and Yilak also purchased a batch in the late eighties, and in 87, it was already flying over the battlefield.

It's a pity that the MiG-29 has short legs and can't fly to the top of the enemy's head on the opposite side, let alone start an air battle with the Tomcat fighter, the MiG-29 really appeared, and it was not until the Gulf War in the early nineties that under the comprehensive suppression of the West, the MiG-29's chicken ribs were exposed, and the reputation of the MiG-29 was as stinky as the T-72.

In short, Yirak has a MiG-29, and there must be a large number of MiG-29 accessories, and it is not easy to get accessories from them, after all, they also regard this kind of aircraft as their killer weapon, but if they exchange it with a super cannon...... They'll be happy to accept it!

In this way, only ten steel pipes are needed to exchange for a batch of accessories, and you can get 100 million US dollars from the Yankees, which is not too simple!

What is the most profitable business in the world? Arms, of course! No, we're not in the arms business, we're selling civilian products!

"You kid, you've made a lot of money this time, right?" Li Runzhu asked.

Sure enough, this sentence is the point! Qin Feng nodded: "That's right, I made a lot of money, but the money I earned will be invested in the high-tech company we just opened." Leader Li, have you heard about our acquisition of the Capital Motorcycle Factory? ”

Li Runzhu nodded: "That's right, you kid is ruthless enough to divert all the original employees!" They are in the original unit, and they can still be demons together, but when they arrive in the new unit, they will probably have to be honestly manipulated by you, and if someone still wants to blow up the thorns, you can fire a few. A few of our old brothers chatted together that day, and they were all praising your ruthlessness. ”

Qin Feng smiled: "What can I do, state-owned enterprises are a mess, there are more lying than standing, we are private enterprises, if we continue to let them lie flat, we must not drag them to death, do not break or stand, although this capital motorcycle factory is not bankrupt, but under my operation, it is almost the same as returning to work after bankruptcy, by the way, I am not talking about this, it is a new high-tech company, our Pacific Group has made up its mind, no matter how much money it costs, we must make chips!" We are thinking about the future of the army! ”

Li Runzhu said this for a purpose, and he wanted to get some benefits from Qin Feng, so Qin Feng had to tell him, not this time, we are for the army!

"The future of the army?"

"Yes, Leader Li, do you know what the future war will look like?"

Li Runzhu was very interested: "Can you tell us about it?" ”

"The Iran-Iraq war has been fought for eight years, all of them are positional warfare, trench warfare, and the same as World War II, we have been fighting in the south for almost ten years, and it is the same tactics of World War II.

"How do the U.S. troops fight?"

"In the hands of the Americans, there is nothing that a few F-16s can't solve, if there is, then go to the A-10, modern warfare, is the integration of air and ground, these require advanced electronic equipment, advanced chips, it can be said that the future war is the war of chips, without modern electronic equipment, it is impossible to win the future war."

The battle in the south was fought for a long time, mainly for military training, but there was also a very special place in it: no matter how fierce the fighting on the ground was, there were hardly any sorties in the air, so to speak, the war was still fought in the way it was decades ago, and all this took until the Gulf War in the 90s to shock everyone: it turns out that modern warfare is fought like this!

The aerial bombardment lasted for several months, destroying all the enemy's resistance forces, and the ground forces were dispatched, and the war ended in more than a hundred hours! It's that easy to fight!

The Eastern Army began to transform from that time, with the mission of winning high-tech wars, and as for now, the big guys have not realized that the old leaders who have studied the war for decades still need young people like Qin Feng to guide the country.

"Xiao Feng, I can't agree with what you said, back then, we resisted US aggression and aided Korea, and there was also a bombing of American planes overhead, didn't we still win?"

"Times are different." Qin Feng said: "Leader Li, there was no advanced electronic equipment before, and now the technology has developed to a height that we can't imagine, Yankee's precision-guided bombs can be thrown from the air, so that the bombs can drill into the vents of the air defense bunkers and fall into them to explode, an infantry squad encounters fierce resistance, and can immediately call for air support, not to mention that before the war, there are a large number of ground-attack cruise missiles, which will destroy all kinds of long-range air defense radars and other facilities as soon as possible, after the war, Under the suppression of electronic jammers, the side that is in a technologically weak position will become blind and deaf......"

Qin Feng talked endlessly for a long time, but Li Runzhu was still skeptical: "Electronic technology has such a big advantage? ”

"Yes, we must develop electronic technology and develop chips, and in order to help the army, we are willing to throw all our profits into the research and development of chips, and even risk being dragged down! If the state is unwilling to invest money, we private enterprises will invest! ”

Hearing Qin Feng's words, Li Runzhu sighed: "Yes, no matter what, the development of chips is not wrong, and the development of chips also costs a lot of money, and it is not easy for your private enterprises to take over this burden, and our army will also strongly support it!" ”

In the past, the development of electronic technology was for the service of the military, for example, computers, which were properly military, calculating the trajectory of ballistic missiles, simulating atomic bombs, and even forecasting the weather were all for military services. What do people want computers for?

In the 80s, computers began to be popularized in the civilian sector, and the general-purpose processors engaged in by Loongson were of course mainly for civilian use, but they could also be converted into military use at any time when needed!

Aegis warships need powerful data processing capabilities, which require advanced computers, early warning aircraft need to track and lock a large number of targets, and also need powerful computers. Even the AWG-9 radar used on the Tomcat fighter uses the 8086 chip as the processor.

General-purpose processors can be civilian as well as military! As long as this difficulty is overcome, it will not be too difficult to develop DSP chips specifically for the army in the future.

Even if Li Runzhu doesn't agree with the scene depicted by Qin Feng, he has to admit that the development of chips is very useful, and the development of chips requires huge investment, and Qin Feng does this for the sake of the country and the army!

"You are indeed only selling civilian oil pipelines, if anyone dares to force it, we will help you out!"

The Pacific Group has done the army a great favor, helping to make equipment before the war, whether it is bulletproof equipment or battlefield rations, it has given the army a new experience, after the war, it has provided human exoskeletons to disabled soldiers, solved the problems of life, the army is very grateful to them, and now, it is going to make chips again, it is also for the army, for national defense, what else to say, full support!

Qin Feng showed a grateful gaze: "Leader Li, don't worry, although our Pacific Group is a private enterprise, we also have a patriotic heart, and many of our civilian equipment are stronger than military products!" ”

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin!" At this moment, Zhuang Shuren ran in from outside, panting: "Three minutes after the fax was sent, Dr. Bull will reply to the message, they will take a special plane over, and they will be able to arrive in Jincheng tomorrow!" ”

The special plane is a trench!

Jincheng Guizhuang Airport, was founded in November 1939, is also a long history, to 50 years of August 1, here opened the first civil route in the East, at the same time began to train passenger pilots, become the cradle of the Oriental civil aviation, to 79 years, and opened up seven routes, sent 12,700 passengers that year, belongs to the domestic large airport, to 95 years, will be renamed Jincheng Binhai International Airport.

Now, the airport is welcoming one of the largest passenger planes.

Boeing 747 is a wide-body passenger aircraft developed by Boeing, it can be seen from the appearance that it is wide, especially the nose part, like a dolphin-like head, not only there are portholes below, there is also a row of portholes above, not only a catamaran airliner, but also a double-decker airliner!

Looking at the Boeing 747 that was landing, Qin Feng was also full of emotion, this kind of plane was too big, some people even doubted whether this kind of plane could fly, there were many stories at the beginning, for example, Pan American told Boeing, as long as it can fly, I will place an order, and Boeing responded, as long as you place an order, we can make it fly!

It was a big gamble, and Boeing gambled on the fate of the entire company, and finally created Boeing's glory.

With a take-off weight of more than 300 tons, and even more than 400 tons in the later stage, and carrying more than 500 passengers, this kind of aircraft is a masterpiece of human aviation.

When will you be able to have a passenger plane of this class? Qin Feng also sighed in his heart, do you want to get involved in aircraft manufacturing in the future? The 80,000-ton die forging press is already available, and aircraft parts can be made from the die forging press.

However, that's all for later, for now, let's fool Dr. Bull and the forces behind him.

Qin Feng's eyes looked at the plane, and the huge vertical tail was sprayed with the words yi-alm, this is Silly Damu's special plane, however, Silly Damu should not come, otherwise, there will be more than one person at the airport who will answer him.

Qin Feng looked at his side, there were almost no government officials, he was the boss of the Pacific Group, and next to him was Zhuang Shuren, who had dealt with Dr. Bull many times before, and the invitation was also sent by him, of course, he was also present.

The reception ceremony was a bit shabby.

The passenger plane landed, the gangway drove over, and Qin Feng and the others greeted it and looked at the people who came down.

The first to come down was a middle-aged man of medium height, with 28 minutes of hair, slightly curly hair, a wide face, and a long beard under his nose that looked like a big italics.

Behind him was a man in a suit of the same height, with short hair, a wide but clean face, no beard, and a glittering eye.

The one in the back is Dr. Bull, Qin Feng has seen the photo of this person, but the person in front of him has not seen much, and he has not appeared on the playing cards, who is this?

Zhuang Shuren greeted him first, and at the bottom of the gangway, he watched the other party come and stretched out his hand enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Kamal, welcome to the East." ”

"I heard that you have oil pipelines here, so I came here to take a look." Kamal said with a smile: "Which one is Mr. Qin?" ”

Kamal, who is in charge of industry and mining, also controls the oil industry in their country, and this oil pipeline project is theoretically under his control.

"I am." Qin Feng greeted him: "Mr. Kamal, welcome to inspect our Pacific Group's thick-walled seamless steel pipe project, this product is very suitable for oil pipelines...... Let's get in the car, this is Dr. Bull, right? Look up for a long time. ”
