Chapter 762 Happy events, entering a new stage

After inspecting the construction situation of the construction site and listening to Jiang Chen and the others introduce the relevant plans, Deputy Chief Luo# and the others are of course very happy.It is conceivable that with so many experts here in the future, they may be able to achieve brilliant results. This is a grand event that several generations of aviation people want to see.After the inspection, when I returned to the village, the Xunzi noodles were ready, and everyone was polite and started to eat them one after another.Especially in this autumn season, when the weather turns cold, everyone is very happy to eat this bowl of hot noodles while sweating profusely.This is especially true for these elderly people. They usually eat less, but this time, they eat more than usual. If the accompanying doctor didn't stop them, they might be able to eat another meal. bowl.

After eating, because I ate a lot, the doctor suggested that everyone get up and walk around to digest food.Especially for the elderly, the decline of gastrointestinal function is even more so.So Jiang Chen and the others took a group of people and walked around to discuss various future cooperation plans.As for Jiang Chen, it was rare for him to reveal his heart, he admitted to everyone what was in his heart.That's right, his ultimate goal is of course a large aircraft, not only a large passenger aircraft, but also a large transport aircraft, as well as a large early warning aircraft and tanker aircraft.Jiang Chen even thought they had proposed the concept of drones.But in their view, this is unimaginable, like a science fiction blockbuster.Regarding this, Jiang Chen smiled and stopped talking.In fact, Jiang Chen and the others have already started the drone technology, not long after the development of the anti-aircraft missile.However, what they are currently developing is only target drones, which are powered by propellers or gunpowder boosters, and the control is only in the initial stage. Generally, there is no control, and only a few are controlled by a wireless remote control. There is still a long distance between man and machine.

However, with the construction of aviation research and development laboratories, aeroengine research and development laboratories, and aerodynamic research laboratories here.There are also the development of electronic components and integrated circuit technology here, and the research on related optical lenses and optical detectors in the optical instrument laboratory. Aren't these all paving the way for drone technology?Now that the seeds have been planted, they are waiting to bloom and bear fruit.But Jiang Chen is not in a hurry. Firstly, as long as he waters and cultivates slowly, the fruit will be more fragrant and sweet.The second is that countries have not yet realized the important role that drones will play in future wars.So they have to realize it first, otherwise whoever spends a lot of money to buy it will have Jiang Chen earning his money.

After bidding farewell to the leaders of the construction site and the old branch secretary, Jiang Chen and the others set foot on the procedure.In the next few days, the negotiations over there continued intensely, while Deputy Chief Luo and the others went to Anxi and several surrounding aviation system units to conduct inspections.Because Deputy Minister Luo's time is limited, the two parties must reach an agreement as soon as possible, so that they can sign the relevant agreement before he leaves.But it's not right to just stay like this, so Deputy Minister Luo and the others proposed to go to other places for inspection first, and he will come back after the negotiation here is settled.And Jiang Chen didn't accompany him any more. He kept an eye on the progress of the negotiation while starting his own work.

Because of Deputy Chief Luo's arrival, or this agreement is about to be reached, Jiang Chen's work has increased again.Now he not only has to take care of the company's original work, although most of it is handed over to Dongzi, but because he will soon enter the North American market, some things still have to be decided by Jiang Chen.As for the aviation market, various preparations are needed. Jiang Chen needs to discuss related work with Mr. Lu and a few experts who have arrived.Especially for the two laboratories that are about to start construction, where exactly will they be built, how will they be built, how much will they cost, what R&D equipment will need to be prepared or purchased, those experts seconded, how to arrange these people, and even accompanying them Family members, these need to be discussed.Ever since, Jiang Chen drove around at full speed.

Perhaps Jiang Chen and his colleagues in China have stimulated Fatty or McDonnell Douglas in their domestic negotiations with Deputy Chief Luo. The negotiations with them have basically reached an agreement very quickly, and now they are waiting to sign a formal contract.McDonnell Douglas agreed with Jiang Chen and the others to introduce all the technology and related patents of the "Little Bird Helicopter" except the engine, as well as related production equipment.The total value is 350 million US dollars, paid in three installments. The first phase of the contract is signed. Jiang Chen and the others will pay 150 million US dollars to McDonnell Douglas, and McDonnell Douglas will also sell to Jiang Chen and the others all technologies and A contract for the right to use the relevant patent.In the second stage, after McDonnell Douglas delivered the relevant production equipment to Jiang Chen and the others, Jiang Chen and the others paid another 100 million US dollars.One year after all the equipment was installed and put into production, Jiang Chen and the others paid the final $100 million.The whole process of cooperation was guaranteed by Laomei's Ministry of Commerce, and Laomei even promised to reduce and exempt some of the relevant expenses for Jiang Chen and the others, and help them obtain low-interest loans supported by the Laomei government.Jiang Chen is naturally very happy about this, and this loan is naturally necessary, and the more the better.Anyway, the interest rate is low, and they are also short of foreign exchange. This is a timely rain, don't want it for nothing.

As for this light fixed-wing aircraft, after reaching the purchase of relevant technical materials, the first batch of production equipment has been transported to Yangcheng, and is currently being loaded and transported to Anxi.These things will be transported directly to Longxi after passing through Anxi.This meant that the production base in Longxi had to speed up. Regarding this, Jiang Chen talked with the leaders of the Second Construction Bureau and relevant leaders in Longxi.After listening to Jiang Chen's introduction, one of them said that they would send more people to try to complete the project as soon as possible.The other said that the local government will fully cooperate with this construction.And the asphalt road from the site selection of the production base to the nearby cities will be completed soon, which will greatly facilitate the construction and speed up the construction progress.Jiang Chen was very satisfied with this. There have been many happy events in the past few days. Even the agreement here has been finalized, and it was only a matter of Vice Chief Luo coming back to sign it.

At noon on a sunny day, Jiang Chen and Deputy Director Luo signed relevant cooperation agreements under the watchful eyes of the leaders of B17 factory and provincial and municipal leaders.This means that this agreement has officially come into effect from now on, and it also means that Western Industries will enter a new stage.Since the signing of this agreement, Jiang Chen and the others have stepped into the door of the aviation industry, and they have now become a comprehensive company that owns land, sea and air.Although there are still some things about the sea that are not worthy of the name, and up to now they have only sold some speedboats and rubber boats and some small marine engines, but Jiang Chen believes that there will be more in the future.
