Chapter 810

Liu Hai didn't pay any attention to this matter because he knew it would be resolved later.

Liu Hai is in the C101 aircraft research department, preparing to start assembling the aircraft.

The first tested aircraft was assembled at the motorcycle factory.

A lot of elite personnel were mobilized from Heshun Airlines, and the first thing they did was to retrain them.

These technical backbones will be the entire management and technical personnel of the C101 manufacturing workshop in the future.

Heshun Airlines is now one of the largest aircraft manufacturing bases in the world.

In fact, there is a huge demand for DC10 aircraft in China, including cargo planes, passenger planes, and refueling planes.

Although the higher authorities proposed to add another production line, it was rejected by Liu Hai.

On the one hand, there are not enough staff to support running two production lines at the same time.

Another thing is the DC10 passenger aircraft. It is not a long-term solution after all, and DC10 will only continue to produce cargo planes in the future.

From now on, all passenger aircraft produced will be C101.

If we add one more dc10 production line now, we will have to face various changes when using it to produce c101 later. Not only the production process, but also the machinery and equipment need to be changed. This is a very troublesome thing.

It would be better to train staff now and wait until C101 is finalized before opening a production line.

The training of technical workers is not purely theoretical training. It consists of theory in the morning and practice in the afternoon.

To be honest, Liu Hai is now just a commander-in-chief. It is impossible for him to assemble the plane himself.

The pilot assembly shop is not a pulsating production line.

The preparations were complete, the first part was placed in its proper place, everyone on the scene applauded, and then the other skilled workers began to work in an orderly manner.

Liu Hai's plan is to train a group of personnel here, and when the second test aircraft is assembled, an assembly workshop will also be opened at the Heshun Aviation Manufacturing Base. The two places will assemble at the same time, on the one hand to train personnel, and on the other hand to increase the output of test aircraft.

Of course, the tested aircraft is not complete, and the degree of assembly varies depending on the test task. For example, the first aircraft for static testing is mainly to test the fuselage and its own structure.

While Liu Hai was busy in Kyoto, Dabao and Amin took a plane to fly over an island in Southeast Asia!
"Is this airport ours too?" Amin looked at the private airport below and felt that it was bigger than the airport in Hong Kong Island.

"It's our private property, but other people can use it to communicate with us. The owners of the surrounding islands have to pass through our airport when they come here. The hangar above is the private hangar of some of the surrounding island owners. They have to pay a considerable management fee to the airport every year. Because they don't land here, there are only airports nearly 1000 kilometers away!" Dabao nodded. There are other islands around, and some wealthy European families have bought houses here.

"The port is so big, why are there so many people here?" Looking down from a private plane, you can see a huge port.

"That's one of the shipping routes leading to the South Pacific. That port is leased to a shipping company in Hong Kong Island. Most of the electricity on the nearby islands is provided by this port." Dabao has been here several times.

"This island below is ours." Dabao pointed to the island below. This is the advantage of a private jet: you can fly everywhere.

"Wow, there's a villa up there?"

"Yes, there are workers taking care of it here."

"In addition, our private islands have their own armed forces."

"What do you mean?"

"Because this sea area was not very peaceful in the past, we can buy guns and cannons and form our own army, and we can even use the islands to establish a country if we are willing."

"...!"

Amin asked in disbelief: "Don't these islands belong to any country?"

"It just belongs to us privately." This completely overturned Amin's understanding of private islands, because he had checked that private islands in many countries must abide by the laws of the country where the islands are located.

The private plane circled before landing at the airport on the main island.

"We could have taken a seaplane, but since this is your first time here, let's go by yacht."

Amin looked at the huge yacht in front of him that was 100 meters long and all white.

In fact, Dabao's family is quite low-key in Hong Kong Island. The car they drive is also slightly higher-end. I have never heard of them having any airplanes or yachts.

It’s not like other rich people who buy a yacht and then have it reported in the newspaper the next day.

When Amin set foot on the island, he found that it was very well maintained. Not only did it have a port, but there were also street lights and roads in the jungle. There were also several villas located in a harbor.

Looking at the white sand beach in the harbor, the forest behind him and the big villa, Amin did not expect that the life of rich people was even more luxurious than he had imagined.

Amin and Dabao took a lot of wedding photos here, and of course also took a lot of Chinese-style photos.

Life on the island is not as boring as you might imagine, because you can go fishing, hike in the forest, sail on a yacht, and even go diving.

It is also very convenient to travel, with seaplanes and yachts available.

Amin also arrived at a huge port, where he saw warships, military helicopters, and huge radar antennas.

"These are used to protect the safety of the surrounding islands. There are also seaplanes patrolling every day." Dabao pointed to an old-fashioned propeller plane of Zhuo's. There were two doors on the side. Some young men with flat heads were maintaining a cannon and a multi-barrel machine gun.

"The cost of maintaining these is provided by us, the island owners."

"Actually, we have an island in the South Pacific, but it's too far away!"

"There are islands in the South Pacific?" Amin was no longer surprised. They had their own warships and military helicopters, and there seemed to be no idea what was inside those houses nearby.

"Ok!"

"Can we take a helicopter back?" Amin asked, looking at the white helicopter.

"Helicopters have low safety performance, so we usually don't ride them!"

"......" Amin thought of some wealthy people in Hong Kong who bought a small helicopter and showed off every day.

There are actually more than a dozen helicopters here, including professional armed helicopters.

"You know this place wasn't very peaceful before. There were pirates everywhere."

"Since we have these escorts, the situation has improved a lot. There is also a rescue helicopter over there, which mainly provides services for merchant ships on the waterway."

"Do you charge tolls here?"

"They should, but I'm not sure whether it's managed by the shipping company."

The couple traveled all over the area during their month-long honeymoon.

Amin returned to Hong Kong Island at the end of May. When he looked at the prosperous Hong Kong Island, he felt like he was dreaming.

The latest hot topic in Hong Kong Island is electronic game competition.

A total of more than 1200 people from Asia signed up for the competition. After all, not many people have access to electronic games now, and even fewer have the time to participate in the competition.

For electronic game competitions, the minimum age limit is 8 years old, and there is no maximum age limit.

The number of applicants from Asia is neither too many nor too few. The lowest number is from Australia, with only 65 applicants.

Europe has the most participants, with more than 4000. Only 10% of the places will be selected in the qualifiers. There was an event in Australia where only two people signed up, so these two people directly advanced to the semi-finals.

And Emperor Entertainment Group will also personally participate in e-sports competitions. This news instantly spread like a gust of wind, filling the entire world.

Liu Hai was also busy in Kyoto. The first C101 used for static testing was progressing very quickly and was much ahead of schedule.

Of course, the main reason is the increase in manpower, especially the technical backbone transferred from Heshun Airlines.

In the northwest, at the construction site of Northwest Engineering Development Co., Ltd., on a large stretch of Gobi Desert, hundreds of mechanical equipment are constantly moving forward and backward in the wind and sand.

First, large bulldozers and excavators are used to roughly level the ground, and then stone screening machines are used.

The screened stones will be used to pave roads or build canals.

After screening, the land will be divided into pieces of equal area.

Then there will be roads between the lands.

Once everything is leveled, machines will come to sow grass seeds.

In the weather in the Northwest, if there is nothing on the ground, the top layer of soil will be blown away, leaving behind some small stones.

But once there is grass or other things on the ground, the flying dust will fall down and slowly form land.

So many orchards in the northwest appear to have very loose soil, but in fact most of it is blown down by the wind.

The sown grass seeds will grow. It is not required that they bloom and bear fruit or grow well. As long as there is a layer of plants on the ground, the sand will continue to fall and be fixed in place.

Subsequently, Liu Hai will waive rent for these lands for a few years and provide some loans. Of course, these are not real loans, but various agricultural machinery, seeds, fertilizers, etc.

Help those who rent the land to gain a firm foothold so that they can reap long-term benefits.

The investment return cycle is very long, but very stable.

In fact, in 2020, Liu Hai knew that we have been committed to developing the Northwest.

Many people from the mainland brought their families to the Northwest, where they were given houses and land.

In fact, generally speaking, the Northwest is much better than some mountainous areas in the mainland, especially the southwest.

Of course, there are also some disadvantages in the Northwest, which is that you can only work there for a few months a year.

However, those who went there early did make a fortune, especially those who reclaimed the land themselves in the early days. Later, the rent of the land was a huge income, because the land rent in the Northwest was getting more and more expensive.

Machines roared in the wind and sand, and even satellites from some countries passing by in the sky were curious about what was going on here, so they basically took a circle in the sky every day.

The main reason was that the noise below was too loud. There were more than a dozen such construction sites, lined up in a row and extending deep into the Gobi Desert.

And at the foot of the mountain in the distance, a large reservoir is being built. This reservoir will intercept the water coming down from the mountain here, and then send it to every piece of land through channels that extend in all directions.

Liu Hai only knew about the progress of the project in the Northwest from some reports and had no time to go and see it in person.

Because Liu Hai is not only busy with the C101 aircraft, but also with the power pile and electromagnetic catapult.

Electromagnetic catapult is a cutting-edge project that involves many things. As for the control system, semiconductors are needed. Liu Hai has Fenghuo Technology Company to help with the control system.

The materials are readily available, after all, there are several catapults in the aircraft carrier's space.

Get the materials you need and do your own research.

However, material research can only reveal the basic components, and it is difficult to say about the specific molding process.

But this ingredient alone is of great help, because there are many directions for the material basis.

"The electromagnetic system will probably take several years, maybe even 10 years." Liu Hai sighed inwardly as he came out of the electromagnetic research laboratory.

"It looks like the first aircraft carrier can only be powered by conventional power, or steam catapults?"

"The steam catapult that the bull used?"

"Let's see the situation and our development first." However, Liu Hai felt that we could wait a little longer, because given the current international situation, there was no need for us to rush to build an aircraft carrier.

First, the island was recovered, and then the South China Sea has long been stable, with many unsinkable aircraft carriers.

We also have the Black Shark fighter jets, which we can use to stabilize the surroundings without any problem.

There is no need to join the aircraft carrier competition now, mainly because with the development of semiconductors and technology, the design of aircraft carriers and related systems are being updated and replaced very quickly.

The Bald Eagle's aircraft carrier has been optimized and modified many times in order to cope with the continuous development of science and technology.

First of all, anti-ship missiles are becoming more and more powerful, and secondly, radar control systems are also becoming more and more powerful.

Aircraft carriers must improve their defense capabilities and update their radar systems.

However, the update of the radar system will be affected by the original design, and it is impossible to fully unleash the advantages of the system.

Therefore, every time the Bald Eagle's aircraft carrier is modified, it is actually an attempt to fit the latest things into the old design.

When the day comes that new things can no longer be fitted into the old designs, a new aircraft carrier will have to be built.

Another thing is that maybe you can get a bargain and get two cheap ships to use first, so that other people won't be alert.

Everyone will be wary of rashly implementing nuclear-powered electromagnetic catapults.

"Grandpa!" Xingxing rushed over when he saw Liu Hai coming.

Liu Hai picked up his granddaughter and said that he would come earlier as long as he could get off work early.

"Have you been good today?"

"I was good today, but my brother was not?"

"So you're a good kid?"

Liu Hai took another look at his second grandson who was sleeping in the cradle.

"Shall we go out for dinner?"

"it is good!"

Liu Hai said hello to Wang Hongmei and took his granddaughter out to eat.

Liu Hai was walking on the street like an ordinary person, holding his granddaughter and moving through the crowd.

There is demolition going on in the distance, and it is said that a large shopping mall will be built here.

This is the terminal sales that Liu Hai is going to do. Xiaoyun contributed part of the funds and Liu Hai contributed part of the funds. Liu Hai is going to adopt the Pang Donglai model. As long as you give the workers enough, they will work for you wholeheartedly.

Of course, this is not certain. Necessary reward and punishment measures and regulations must be in place.
