I built an armada.

Chapter 399: Qian Lao selects his successor, Longxia Military Industry dominates Blue Star
The Eagle Tribe’s homeland was out of reach before, but now it is finally within reach.

If something unexpected happens, they can simply declare a nuclear strike on targets on the Eagle Tribe's territory.

Even if it only covers a limited number of states, it would be a huge technological advancement compared to before.

The deterrent power of the Longxia tribe has been greatly enhanced!

With this nuclear stick in hand, Shuai Xue felt more confident and had more self-assurance in this military operation.

When it was almost dawn, the group finally arrived at the integrated military factory's dedicated airport.

Wan Long, the security battalion commander here, personally went to the airport to greet them and took them to the integrated military factory in a special car.

"General Xue, all the leaders, welcome to the integrated military factory."

Wanlong said with a smile on his face.

"Su Dingping, where are the others?"

Xue Shuai glanced at the people who came to greet him and asked quickly.

"Reporting to Commander Xue, Chief Engineer Su went to the research institute to do research as soon as he returned."

"He went into the office ten minutes ago and never came out again. I don't know if he took a break."

Wan Long quickly reported, "I'll go and inform him as soon as I get there."

"No, no, he must be very busy right now. I'm also a scientific researcher, I understand."

Mr. Qian quickly stopped him and said, "Let's go directly to the research institute and his office."

"Okay, please get in the car."

After the group got on the bus, it drove directly to the integrated military factory research institute and stopped in the compound.

Then, under the guidance of Wan Long, the group came directly to the door of Su Dingping's office.

A sign with the title of Chief Engineer hung on the door frame of the office.

"Dong dong!"

Wanlong knocked on the door.

Inside the room, Su Dingping was busy at his desk with a pen in his hand, researching new technology. He replied without even raising his head.

"Come in."

The door opened, and Liu Huaming, Xue Shuai, Qian Lao and others walked in one after another.

"Master Su, the commander is here."

Wan Long personally stepped forward to give a reminder, but Su Dingping was still busy.

"Dingping, how's the progress?"

Liu Huaming asked with a smile.

"Commander, I am busy improving some of the problems exposed by the 10,000-ton destroyer and preparing to transform it with new technology."

Su Dingping then raised his head and said, "Why didn't you tell me you were here? I could have gone to pick you up in person..."

Before he could finish his words, he was stunned.

His eyes trembled violently as he saw Xue Shuai, Qian Lao and others slowly walking in.

He soon recognized the elderly man.

Damn it.

It turned out to be Mr. Qian!
Why did Mr. Qian come to visit suddenly?

hallucinations!

I must have been too busy just now, so I had hallucinations.

He comforted himself in his heart, then rubbed his eyes vigorously with his hands and looked over again.

Xue Shuai, Liu Huaming, and Qian Lao!
The three people were still standing there, and each of them had a smile on their face.

He quickly pinched his face hard again. It really hurt. Was all this true?
The expressions of the three people seemed to change.

Yes, they are real.

It took a while for Su Dingping to accept this fact.

He was completely stunned and felt it was incredible. He could never have imagined that the meritorious figure who only existed in textbooks in his previous life and the scientific giant would actually appear in front of him alive.

I actually saw it with my own eyes. It was a real person!
Thinking back to those days, every time Su Dingping read about Mr. Qian’s glorious deeds in the textbooks, he felt his blood boiling.

His journey back home was so difficult and bumpy. He encountered layers of obstruction and defense from the Eagle Tribe, who even detained him, subjected him to harsh interrogation, and threatened him with death. Finally, the Longxia Tribe had to exchange prisoners with the Eagle Tribe before he was allowed to return.

After returning to China, he hid his identity and devoted himself to national defense construction. He led hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the northwest desert, creating an unprecedented feat. He forged swords and nuclear weapons for the Longxia tribe, allowing the Longxia people to stand tall among the nations of the world again!

Decades of high-intensity work day after day is just for the Longxia tribe to have its own nuclear iron fist and be able to protect itself at the last moment.

The former Soviet Union gave wrong data, and after the foreign experts withdrew, they insisted on leading their own construction personnel to use an abacus to produce a mushroom egg.

With a loud bang from the east, the Longxia tribe finally gained recognition from the international community.

Those were extremely difficult times, especially when they created a nuclear base with their own hands in the uninhabited desert.

Su Dingping felt that he would never be able to reach the heights that Mr. Qian had achieved!

He will always remember what Mr. Qian said: If one day an atomic bomb is dropped on the heads of the Longxia people, I will regret it. Having no sword in hand and having a sword but not using it are two different things.

Especially the last sentence, what a domineering word, which constantly inspires him to keep fighting.

He had already known all of Mr. Qian's deeds by heart, but he had never thought that he would meet him one day.

And this day came so soon. He was standing in his own office. This was the legendary figure that the Eagle Tribe would rather exchange for six divisions.

But his hair has turned gray and his face is haggard. It is obvious that time has left indelible marks on him.

Time really makes people grow old, and Mr. Qian is no exception. However, he still has a warm and heart-warming smile on his face, which makes him shocked.

Such a legendary figure has become so old. Time is so cruel.

Su Dingping then realized a serious problem: Mr. Qian was already in his nineties.

If he were an ordinary person, he would have been enjoying his retirement at home and playing with his grandchildren at this age.

Even at such an old age, he is still fighting on the front line of Longxia military industry. Such a spirit is so touching and shocking!
Suddenly, Su Dingping's nose felt sore and he couldn't help but look out the window.

It was just daybreak when he saw that the other party had not slept all night and had rushed over from the northwest base overnight. He didn't even have time to change his clothes.

While Su Dingping was in shock, Mr. Qian was also looking at Su Dingping with his eyes full of wisdom.

Although I had seen Su Dingping's photo in the information before, it was only when I met him in person that I realized how young he was. It is true that young people are to be feared.

If he had not read the relevant top-secret information, he would probably find it hard to believe that the young man in front of him was the key figure in the Longxia Navy's overtaking in surface ship equipment.

It's not wrong to say that it was created by him!
It is a blessing for the Longxia Military Industry and the Navy to have such a young and talented young chief engineer.

Seeing that Su Dingping didn't move for a long time, Liu Huaming thought that the other party didn't know Mr. Qian.

"Dingping, come here, let me introduce you."

Liu Huaming stepped forward and winked at Su Dingping, "This is Mr. Qian, the chief designer of the Thunder intercontinental ballistic missile and a meritorious scientist."

After saying that, he introduced himself to Mr. Qian.

"Mr. Qian, he is Su Dingping, the chief engineer of the navy warship."

Su Dingping came back to his senses, walked quickly around the desk, and stretched out his hands to shake hands with Mr. Qian.

"Mr. Qian, I'm Su Dingping, you can just call me Dingping." "I'm very happy to meet you."

"How could I trouble you to come and see me in person? It would shorten my lifespan."

Soon he found that his hands seemed a little dirty, so he hurriedly wiped them hard on his clothes, and then he took the initiative to stretch out his hands again and held tightly together with Mr. Qian's old hands.

This scene happened to fall into Xue Shuai's eyes, and his favorable impression of Su Dingping instantly increased a lot.

This young man is not only talented, but also very humble, polite and respectful to others, especially top scientists like Mr. Qian.

He could see that all of Su Dingping's actions came from the heart and were definitely not deliberate or contrived!
How could Xue Shuai not like such a talent?
"Hello, Dingping. I'm glad to see you, too."

Mr. Qian first shook hands with Ye Congrong, but soon he shook hands with both hands, "I am sorry to bother you when I have nothing to do. I hope you don't mind."

Mr. Qian also noticed Su Dingping's reaction and had a very good first impression of him.

At this moment, the hands of two generations of military workers were tightly clasped together, like a handshake that spanned centuries.

One is the pioneer of Longxia’s national defense weapon, and the other is the number one person in Longxia’s new era naval armament research.

Xue Shuai and Liu Huaming both became witnesses of this historic moment.

"Oh, why didn't I bring a follower with me? I should have taken a picture of this scene."

Liu Huaming was very upset. He thought that the historical moment should be frozen, which was like a heritage.

"Mr. Qian, come on, come on, sit over here."

As soon as he shouted the word "sit", Su Dingping regretted it.

Looking around, I found that there was only one extra chair in the huge office, and it was the one in front of the desk, which was usually used for work reports.

The ranks of the people who came were higher than his, so it would be inappropriate for anyone to sit there.

After all, this is an office, where all kinds of documents are usually stored. Moreover, his office is a bit messy, with documents piled everywhere, which makes it seem a bit cramped.

An awkward smile suddenly appeared on his face and he reached out and scratched the back of his head.

"Um, I'm so sorry, there aren't many people coming here on weekdays, so I don't have that many chairs prepared."

Xue Shuai immediately laughed and tried to smooth things over.

"It's okay. We didn't come here to sit with you on purpose."

Liu Huaming was even more straightforward. He shouted outside, "Wanlong, go and bring some chairs over."

"Yes."

Wan Long, who was guarding outside, immediately took the order.

The embarrassment was finally resolved, but based on the principle of respecting the elderly and loving the young, Su Dingping decided to let Mr. Qian sit down first.

Mr. Qian sat down and looked around the office. He was very satisfied with the office environment.

Because it's the same in his office over there.

Apart from a thick desk and a bookshelf, there are only two chairs, one for myself and one for the reporter. The rest of the empty space is used to place drawings, related materials and professional books.

With the documents piled up, the originally large office seemed very cramped.

He also realized that Su Dingping was the same type of person as him, focusing on scientific research.

There are so many chairs in the office, and there is also a reception area. Those are for the leaders, not for these scientific and technological workers.

"Mr. Qian, I'm sorry to embarrass you. Everything is a mess."

Seeing Mr. Qian looking around his office, Ye Congrong smiled innocently and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, I feel the same way."

Mr. Qian smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to be able to concentrate on scientific research at such a young age."

"I heard that you are only 22 years old this year?"

Su Dingping nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Qian. But Chief Liu said before that when he was my age, he already had a child. In this regard, I am indeed behind."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter.

Amidst the laughter, the distance between everyone was instantly shortened.

"Dingping, Mr. Qian came here especially for you, so you have to behave yourself."

At this time, Xue Shuai raised his hand and gently patted Su Dingping on the shoulder, explaining earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Su Dingping was shocked.

Mr. Qian came all the way to see me?

How much face do I have?

He began to doubt himself. This was too scary. It would shorten his life!

It is reasonable and logical that he should go there in person to ask for a meeting. How can he let the other party go there in person?

"Xue Shuai, if Mr. Qian wants to see me, he only needs to call me at any time and I will come over in person. How can I trouble you to come over in person?"

"Mr. Qian, how can this junior afford it?"

Su Dingping's throat moved and he said in shock.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm old, and I can't stay here all the time. I just want to go out for a walk and stretch my muscles."

As he was speaking, Mr. Qian saw the huge design drawing hanging on the wall.

"Mr. Qian, this is a 10,000-ton ..."

Liu Huaming hurriedly stepped forward to introduce himself, but before he could finish his words, Ya was stunned.

Why is the content above different?

He remembered clearly that the last time he came with Deng Zhenhua to discuss borrowing 15,000 technical soldiers, the design sketch of a 10,000-ton destroyer was clearly hung on the wall.

At that time, he also asked Su Dingping if he could take a copy of the blueprint back. Not long after that, the 10,000-ton destroyer was launched and performed great functions during the sea trial.

Looking at the entire blue planet, it is probably the only one of its kind!
It really proves the saying that warships are used for fighting wars.

Why did it change this time?
He hurried over and took a closer look, and suddenly his whole body trembled.

This design drawing is clearly a 'nuclear-powered aircraft carrier design sketch'.

The displacement is as high as 130,000 tons!
Liu Huaming pointed at the drawing and looked at Su Dingping.

"This, this, how did it change?"

"Last time it was a 10,000-ton destroyer, how come it became a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?"

"When did this happen?"

Liu Huaming even stuttered when he spoke, which shows how huge the impact it brought was.

It really proved what Xue Shuai said before.

I’m afraid even Liu Huaming himself doesn’t know how far the navy has developed now!
If he hadn't come here today, he wouldn't have known that Su Dingping had actually started developing a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

Now seeing that, it is indeed the case.

"Commander, this was put up two days ago."

Su Dingping glanced at the design and explained, "The first phase of the 10,000-ton destroyer is just about to be completed, and the new project is about to be launched."
