Chapter 1387 Press Conference at Qishan Base
"Miss Nicole, where are we going?" Julie looked at the buses parked in front of everyone and asked Nicole suspiciously.

Julie's question is also the voice of these reporters, so they all look at Nicole, waiting for her recovery.Regarding this, Nicole said with a smile: "We are going to Qishan this time, our President Jiang is already waiting for you there, and you can ask him if you have any questions."

"Qishan, what is that place?" Everyone asked in confusion.

Nicole explained with a smile: "In Eastern mythology, Mount Qi is the place where the phoenix inhabits, which is somewhat equivalent to Mount Olympus in ancient Greek mythology."

"Oh, are we going on a trip?" Julie asked suspiciously.

Nicole shook her head and said, "To be honest, I don't know, because I haven't been there. In addition, Qishan is actually a region, not just a mountain, and what we are going to is a place where we are located." laboratory."

"Laboratory?" The reporters grasped the key point of Nicole's words and started to ask.And Nicole faced the reporters' questioning and shook her head again and again: "Sorry, friends, I really don't have any extra information to provide you. But I can be sure of one thing, that is this laboratory, which was rarely opened to the outside world before. , even the insiders of our company are subject to very strict restrictions. And this time, you will be the first batch of reporters to go. We also hope to express our goodwill and hope that everyone can seize this rare opportunity. valuable opportunity."

Hearing Nicole's words, the eyes of the reporters lit up one after another.From Nicole's words, it can be seen that this laboratory is really extraordinary, and it is the first time it has been opened to the public.Therefore, this precious opportunity must not be wasted, so the reporters began to get excited one by one.

Immediately, the reporters drove to Qishan by bus. Although the road conditions were good, the two-way, four-lane wide asphalt road made the vehicles run very smoothly, which made the reporters feel that they were in a foreign country.However, the villages passing by the roadside from time to time still reminded them that this place is in Anxi, inland, and it is the most desolate and poor place in everyone's impression.

After about an hour of driving, everyone finally arrived at their destination.In front of the reporters, apart from a very ordinary village, there are large tracts of arable land and green overwintering wheat.And what they are going to is a platform surrounded by a piece of cultivated land. In the local language, it is the loess plateau.On this loess plateau, it is surrounded by a circle of tall white walls with barbed wire.Moreover, the security system here is also very strict. When they entered, they went through two inspection posts, and they were allowed to pass after carefully identifying their identities.This made the reporters somewhat uneasy, but it was more of a kind of excitement.For journalists, there is nothing more fascinating than the unknown.

After entering, the reporters discovered that this place is actually an airport.However, compared with ordinary airports, there are many buildings here. In addition to hangars and aprons, there are many office buildings and other facilities.Combined with the laboratory mentioned by Nicole before, the reporters realized that this is the aviation research laboratory of Western Industries Corporation.Then the purpose of letting them come this time is self-evident.This made the reporters all excited, and from time to time they took video cameras and cameras to take pictures of the things here.And no one stopped them during the whole process, but some people gave explanations with smiles on their faces.

Through the explanation of the reception staff, the reporters also understood this.It turns out that this is the aviation technology research and development base of Western Industries Corporation, not the desert airport in the satellite photos.As for why it is here, the reception staff also gave an explanation.That is, the airport is located in the desert to the west, the natural conditions are very harsh, and the distance is relatively long, so it was chosen here.As for the reason for choosing to be here, the reception staff did not give a clear answer.It is just to say that this is to show their sincerity and to face the concerns of the international community more transparently.

After the reporters visited the site and had a general understanding of the place, the press conference began immediately.This time, the press conference was chosen to be outdoors. It is already mid-April, and the sun is shining brightly, which is very suitable for outdoor activities.So Jiang Chen chose to hold the press conference outdoors, on a tarmac.

After the reporters are seated and the equipment debugging is completed, the press conference will begin immediately.It was Nicole who hosted the press conference, and she smiled at the reporters and said, "Okay, friends from the press, the next press conference is just beginning. Please invite the general manager of Western Industries, Mr. Jiang Chen."

Under the routine applause, Jiang Chengui appeared on the stage, and sat down on the seat under the strong flashlight.Ni saw that Jiang Chen and the others were seated, and then said to everyone: "The time of this press conference is set for one hour and 10 minutes. Everyone can ask questions in an orderly manner. Mr. Jiang Chen and we will answer your questions as appropriate. Of course. , We have the right to refuse to answer some of your questions. The opportunity for everyone to ask questions is very limited, and I hope journalists and friends will cherish it more. Before asking questions, we will release information, and I will invite Mr. Jiang Chen to speak next.”

Jiang Chen took the microphone, then looked at the reporters and said with a smile: "First of all, I would like to welcome all journalists and friends to feel that Nanshan participated in our press conference. Thank you very much for your attention to our company. For this press conference, we will also I will try my best to answer your questions. Next, I will give a brief explanation of the content related to our company during this period, and I hope you can truthfully convey it to the people who care about us.”

Jiang Chen looked at the crowd and said, "First of all, let's give a brief introduction to our company. Our company is a group company mainly engaged in industrial manufacturing, mainly involved in the research and development and manufacturing of civilian products and military products. .Secondly, our company is a private enterprise, and its shares are all held by me and a few like-minded friends.
