Chapter 75 The Driver's Craft

Xu Qiang's eyes were complicated.

Qin Tao didn't reveal his real identity, but casually said that he was a truck driver. If he could fix it, he would be pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. If he couldn't fix it, it wouldn't affect the reputation of the shipyard. Play very high.

So, can Qin Tao fix it?
Thinking of the last time when Qin Tao had a meal, Qin Tao casually said a lot. As a result, the problem of the wing folding of their missiles was really solved. Now, the Hongqi-61 missile is already testing the live ammunition of the torsion bar folding wings.This person seems to know everything.

Look at Qin Tao's easy operation just now, he is absolutely confident, maybe he can really solve the problem.

Xu Qiang looked at Zhao Ling again.

The two had known each other since they were in college, and when Zhao Ling graduated and worked in the same unit as Xu Qiang, Xu Qiang was already in love.

Now Zhao Ling's eyes are always looking at Qin Tao, the eyes are full of admiration, Xu Qiang can see clearly, which makes him a little disappointed, he knows that Zhao Ling asked for leave some time ago, and then some things happened, There are rumors that Zhao Ling and Qin Tao went to Lao Maozi's place together during that time, lonely man and widow...

"Cough, cough." Qin Tao coughed twice, and then said to Carrasco, "Lord Carrasco, it's winter now, why is your forehead covered with sweat?"

Waiting for parts to arrive is boring, so just tease Carrasco.

"I'm overdressed today and it's hot."

"Oh, I thought you were worried that we have repaired the radio equipment and adjusted it, so you have no reason to refuse to accept the ship."

"As the representative of receiving the ship, my duty is to transfer the qualified ship to the owner. As long as all the equipment on it is in good condition, I will of course sign to confirm the receipt of the ship. If you cannot deliver the qualified ship to us on time, then the owner Abandoning ship is also a matter of course."

"Your Excellency Carrasco, we have a saying here called Feng Shui turns, which contains deep philosophical and economic thinking." Qin Tao said: "Anyway, it will take a while for us to wait for the accessories. Do you want to hear it? I figured it out out of boredom while I was driving."

"please say."

Although Qin Tao's current identity is just a driver, but Qin Tao is the first to stand out, showing a strong aura, until now, everyone is paying attention to him, he has become the protagonist.

"Since entering the 80s, the world economy has entered a recession. Coupled with the oil crisis, the demand for the shipping industry has shrunk significantly, leading to a recession in the shipping industry."

"The income of a large number of ships is even lower than the operating cost. Therefore, in recent years, a large number of bulk carriers have been dismantled or idled, and a large number of supertankers have also been idled as offshore oil storage platforms or even dismantled. A large number of Ship orders were cancelled. In this way, the shipping industry has entered an extremely difficult stage, but this is just the darkness before dawn, as long as we get through it, there will be light.”

Carrasco's breathing became short of breath.

"The Great Depression in Shipping was caused by the decrease in maritime trade volume and the increase in ship supply." Qin Tao said: "As a large number of ships are dismantled, the number of ships will gradually decrease. At the same time, as the world situation changes , the economy will gradually recover, especially, the relationship with the Soviet Union will gradually improve, Europe will not have to worry about the imminent war crisis, reduce military expenditures, and invest in economic development. Entering the 90s, the world economy will usher in vigorous development .”

"So, when we fix the radio and you sign off to take over the ship, the owner will be grateful to you later."

Carrasco swallowed.

The law of economics is also like this. It goes back and forth between oversupply and short supply. The world shipping industry has declined for ten years, and the global shipping capacity has dropped sharply. Coupled with the easing of relations with the Soviet Union, perhaps the economy is really Can it develop?

If this ship is taken back and catches up with the recovery of the shipping industry, the ship owner may still be able to use this ship to earn high profits?

"Crunch!" The tires screamed outside, and an old Shanghai parked on the pier, and the people in the car hurried onto the boat, holding the parts Qin Tao specified, as well as maintenance tools such as electric soldering irons.

"Okay, let's get to work." Qin Tao plugged in the electric soldering iron and started repairing. He removed the chip capacitor he thought was broken and replaced it with a new one.

After 5 minutes, everything was back to normal.

Qin Tao turned on the circuit switch and handed the communicator to Zhao Dagang.

"This is the ro-ro ship that is about to be delivered by Huating Shipyard. I request to test the radio equipment with the Guangzhou station. Please answer if you receive it. Please reply if you receive it!"

"Guangzhou TV received, we have been waiting for your call."

Hearing this voice, everyone cheered.

Well, it's fixed!

"Your Excellency Carrasco, how is my skill as a driver?" Qin Tao asked Carrasco.

"We'll have to test the telegraph again."

"Of course there is no problem, let's send a simple SOS test."

In the sound of ticking, the detection was completed.

"We're also checking the 9GHz radar transponder."

"Okay, let's send a request to the radar on the shore."

All kinds of tests have been carried out, and Carrasco racked his brains, but he can't think of any other items to check.At this time, there were still twenty hours before the delivery of the ship.

It took Qin Tao less than two hours to complete all the radio test items, and there were no accidents.

"Your Excellency Carrasco, can you sign to accept the ship now?" Director Wang asked from the side, feeling extremely excited.

This Cong Ju helped the hired driver a lot. This is a big hermit hiding in the city.

"I need to make a call to the owner," Carrasco said.

"Of course you can, but the time you spend on the phone will be counted as the delivery time. If you make more than 20 hours of phone calls and delay the delivery time, it is your responsibility."

After Carrasco came back from the call, he solemnly signed his name.

"This ship fully complies with the delivery standards, and the owner is willing to accept this ship."

"Long live!" Everyone shouted excitedly.

"Mr. Driver, I admire your technology. Do you want to develop abroad?" Carrasco extended an invitation to Qin Tao.

Going abroad is a trend in this era.When the door of the country was opened, I don’t know how many people were fascinated, thinking that foreign countries are tall and high, so they wanted to drill abroad even if they broke their scalps.

Now, after hearing Carrasco's invitation, everyone turned their attention to Qin Tao.

Qin Tao shook his head: "I am just an ordinary truck driver, and I am unknown among the crowd, but in front of foreigners, I will never forget that I am the master of my country and an upright Chinese! If someone wants to make things difficult on purpose We, the truck driver, can only roll up our sleeves and play, and we cannot be manipulated by others."
