Chapter 734 Preliminary Determination of Site Selection Plan
Thank you [Kitchen Fat Cat] for your reward, I am so grateful for your generosity.

The next step is the site selection work. There are two main considerations in this site selection.One is the location consideration of the R&D base. The R&D base should consider the distance issue, mainly because the distance from the company should not be too far.If it is too far away, the company's scientific research force and related units will not be able to provide them with necessary and timely assistance, and it will be difficult to achieve mutual integration and development.If it is too close, it is likely to affect the company's future development.As we all know, the aviation manufacturing industry generally occupies a huge area, so if the distance is too close, it is likely to occupy the company's development reserve land and squeeze the company's development space.Although all localities welcome Jiang Chen and the others to build a factory in the past, the large scale of land used for aircraft manufacturing still makes it somewhat unaffordable for local governments.Especially the entire river valley plain area is a major commodity grain production area.Such a large-scale station, or in this time period, everyone is on the food and clothing line, which is bound to arouse criticism.

So this research and development institution can be closer, but this production plant must find a vast and sparsely populated desert area.Jiang Chen plans to build this production plant in the desert or on the edge of the desert.On the one hand, it is sparsely populated, which is suitable for building factories. Because the land here cannot be cultivated, there is no pressure to occupy a large area, and there is no demolition work.More importantly, the climate in the desert area is relatively dry and the rainfall is relatively rare, so it is suitable for convenient outdoor storage of these aircraft.Another one is confidentiality and security. This is a potential issue that Jiang Chen is considering for the next step.

Let’s talk about the research and development base first. Jiang Chen gave a few selected targets.The first one is the Lishan area, about 150 kilometers to the northeast, where there is a military bomber airport.At present, the airport has not been abandoned, but if Jiang Chen needs it, he can go there and talk about it. I believe there should be no big problem.The second is about [-] kilometers in the west near Qishan Mountain. The terrain here is flat and sparsely populated. There is only one village nearby, so it is easy to carry out relocation work.And there is also a road leading directly from Nanshan. If you choose to go there, you can expand the current road. After the expansion, the round trip will not exceed one hour.It is also very convenient for researchers to go home.And the third one is in the north, close to Xifei, or it was originally Xifei's site.It's just that Xifei has had some bad luck in the past two years, so it's free.There are ready-made runways, control towers and other infrastructure.It's just that if you choose here, there may be some overlap with XAC in the flight test airspace, and coordination between the two parties is required.And it still needs to pay more attention to the cooperation in the future.Although the provincial government hoped that Jiang Chen would move the factory there, Jiang Chen was a little hesitant, so he wanted to hear the opinions of the old people.

The opinions of the old people are also very different, mainly in two aspects.As for the first airport, no one thought about it, because this airport is far away, and the transportation is inconvenient, and it is very troublesome to coordinate, so the old people didn't think about it at all.Now the old people are mainly struggling with the remaining two places. The first one is that there is nothing, just a blank sheet of paper, allowing everyone to write and draw.Others think that it is too expensive and time-consuming to start all over again, so it is better to pick up ready-made ones.The old people are used to being poor, so everyone feels sorry for every penny they spend.Of course, they would definitely like to have a brand new research and development facility of their own, but they were worried that Jiang Chen would not be able to afford it.Jiang Chen saw all this in his eyes, and after thinking about it, he decided to choose the second option and start all over again.The third one is certainly convenient, but Xifei's advantage cannot be taken for nothing. Jiang Chen doesn't want any unpleasant things to happen in the future.Moreover, Qishan is relatively close to Nanshan, which means that the employees' families can be kept in Nanshan, and there is no need to build basic service facilities there. This will save Jiang Chen a lot of work and money.More importantly, these populations can further promote the development of Nanshan, which can serve multiple purposes.

Next is the production plant.Jiang Chen was more inclined to this Longxi Province or the desert area of ​​Mongolia in the north, but was strongly blocked by the province.It's also because of Jiang Chen's talkativeness, he actually mentioned this idea at home, why didn't he think that there is still a spy at home.That was Jiang Chen's aunt. She told the unit about this matter, and her original intention was to keep the production factory in Anxi.But who knew that the provincial government knew it. People stand high and look far away, so they naturally know that it is impossible to keep this factory in Anxi, so they plan to keep this factory in the province and never let it go out.The Longxi Province and Mongolian District who got the news must be very reluctant. They have long been hanging on to Jiang Chen, an enterprise, and now they have this opportunity, how can they not grasp it.

So the three places, besides sparring with each other, immediately sent people to guard Jiang Chen's place.As for Jiang Chen himself, the leaders found various reasons to call him to drink tea. In the end, when Jiang Chen heard about drinking tea, he was a little scared.These leaders were all old foxes, and they didn't say anything directly, they just called Jiang Chen over to drink tea or play chess if they had nothing to do.This is really drinking tea and playing chess. He is old, he has enough energy to cultivate his energy, and he can hold his temper. He is not in a hurry to drink tea all afternoon.But Jiang Chen, he can't do it, firstly because he is young, restless and has a quick temper.Secondly, he has a lot of things to do, and he is busy in several places. He really doesn't have time to spend with these old foxes here, so he loses every time.However, regarding the selection of the site, Jiang Chen never let up.

Jiang Chen told the results to the old people. The old people first made fun of Jiang Chen, and then analyzed it in detail.But this is not like an experimental base, there are too many things to consider, such as the traffic problem, and the supporting facilities, such as the electricity, water source, and the basic services that need to be considered.In the end, everyone did not reach a consensus on this matter. Everyone still felt that they should go to the field to investigate first, and then listen to the plans provided by the three parties before making a decision.In this regard, Jiang Chen also agreed, now that a professional team negotiates, it will definitely be much better than him, and Jiang Chen no longer needs to be disturbed by the three parties.

Seeing that it was getting too late and some experts were tired of their opinions, Jiang Chen proposed to end the meeting.Although some experts were very reluctant, but Jiang Chen insisted, they had no choice but to obey the arrangement. Under Jiang Chen's arrangement, they boarded the car and took them to the hotel to rest.And Jiang Chen also finished his day's work, dragged his tired body into the car and drove home.
