Thirty Entrepreneurship: Recycling of second-hand aircraft carriers at the beginning

Chapter 314: What can be done with a scrapped plane?
For a moment, Lin Chen's mind was full of thoughts.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he thought of a brilliant explanation.

He looked at Fang Lan and said casually, "Oh, that was the Didi I took."

"Took Didi?" Fang Lan's eyes widened in surprise. "These days, are there still people driving a Mercedes to take Didi?"

"Of course, there are people driving sports cars, but you just haven't seen one." Lin Chen said calmly.

Fang Lan looked at him suspiciously, but after thinking about it carefully, she seemed to have seen similar posts on the Internet.

So, she said half-doubtfully: "You are really lucky to have met a Didi order for Mercedes-Benz."

Lin Chen smiled and saw that Fang Lan did not continue to ask questions but walked towards the kitchen. He knew that he had passed this hurdle.

He breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced.

……

The next morning, Lin Chen walked into Yongxin Car Dealership.

A young man wearing a white shirt and trousers and a work badge saw him and was surprised for a moment, then smiled, waved his hand and shouted, "Master Lin!"

Hearing the voice, Lin Chen looked and saw it was his college classmate Zhao Youliang.

Although their relationship was average and they could not be considered friends but just classmates, Lin Chen still felt a little surprised and delighted to meet by chance in this place.

Zhao Youliang walked over quickly. Lin Chen glanced at the sign on his chest and asked, "Why are you working here?"

Zhao Youliang smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Hey, there's nothing I can do. It's so hard to find a job in our major now. I sent my resume to several companies, but none of them offered me a job. I have to find a job."

Lin Chen has been busy abroad recently, and since he has graduated, he has not paid attention to the affairs of his classmates in the university group.

But after hearing what Zhao Youliang said, it was not difficult for him to judge that there must be many people who chose the same inappropriate job as him.

Just like Zhao Youliang said, it is very difficult to find a job now.

"What about you, Mr. Lin? You didn't come here to rent a car, did you?" Zhao Youliang asked curiously.

"Yeah." Lin Chen smiled and nodded. He was indeed here to rent a car.

Zhao Youliang was extremely surprised.

Lin Chen became famous at the graduation ceremony and became a celebrity in the whole school!

His reputation is even still circulating in Linhai University.

Now he is here and wants to rent a car?

This is really hard to understand.

However, Lin Chen didn't care about his thoughts and just asked him to take him to see the car.

Half an hour later, Lin Chen rented a Hongqi off-road HS7 for two months.

He paid the money and drove away satisfied.

Zhao Youliang watched Lin Chen leave, still confused.

Why would Lin Chen come to the car rental company to rent a car when he was treated so courteously by the military leaders?
This is really puzzling.

However, he thought again and thought that perhaps those who were valued by the military leaders did not necessarily have a good material life, and those professors engaged in scientific research were examples.

Thinking of this, he smiled with relief and didn't care.

……

Lin Chen was driving on the road and felt a little excited.

He had sorted out the issue of the vehicle and was thinking of buying a car once he had finished building the fighter jet and sold it.

Although he has driven a fighter jet and even drove it directly from West Mexico to China, owning a car of your own and owning a fighter jet of your own are two different feelings, both are great!
Of course, if he had to choose, he would definitely choose a fighter jet because it is an obvious thing.

Two hours later, a Hongqi HS5 stopped at the factory gate.

The car door opened and Lin Chen got out of the car, holding a bag in his hand containing the clothes he would wear during maintenance, so as to avoid getting his clothes dirty again today.

He pushed open the rolling door and walked in, put on maintenance clothes and started working.

Because he just thought about buying a car, he was full of energy at this moment.

……

However, these days, the United States has been talking about Lin Chen's previous flight from Walton to West Mexico in a Mirage fighter.

The explosion sound of the Mirage fighter jet breaking through the air at its speed attracted the attention of the citizens in the city below at that time.

These days, in addition to discussing military exercises, people in the United States are also discussing this matter.

And because the government did not give an explanation, they had all kinds of speculations, just like what happened in Linhai City at that time.

In particular, I heard people from West Mexico say that the same huge sound also appeared in the sky over their country, but they also found nothing.

So what Lin Chen did added one more unsolved mystery in the United States.

Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

In August, Linhai City entered the hottest time of the year.

As the military exercises between the United States and the Kingdom of Sakura have come to an end, cargo ships of ocean-going companies in North China are once again setting sail to the world.

Naturally, routes for ocean-going cargo ships from other countries to reach North China were also opened.

The days seemed to have become dull. Although the military exercises were occasionally mentioned online, the response was much smaller than before.

However, the fact that the United States and the Land of Sakura have become a laughing stock will still make people laugh no matter how long it has been.

The United States and the Sakura Country have been tracking down the country behind the fighter jet recently.

Various means were used to send out spies and visit other countries to explore exchanges.

But there was no result at all, not even a clue.

The person in charge of this matter in Sakura Country is Major General Endo Yuki.

Originally, this matter should have been handled by a general of a higher rank, but Endo Yuki was an eyewitness and the fighter jet appeared in an operation led by him, so he was put in charge.

However, there was no result after more than a month, and Endo Yuki was urged many times by the Prime Minister to find the country behind it.

Xavier, the person in charge of this matter in the United States, was in the same situation and was urged many times by the president.

Sadness and worry have been the common emotions these two have had over the past month.

After all, this is a big deal, and who wants to be rushed by their superiors?
The situation in China is not much better, and there is no clue at all either.

And the person behind this incident - Lin Chen was in the factory at this time.

He didn't think about the fact that all three countries were now trying to find the Mirage fighter.

How could he have the time to think about maintenance and modification?
At this time, he was standing in front of the fourth F20 fighter, which was the last fighter and had now been repaired and maintained.

It looked just like a brand new F20 fighter jet.

This is the power of Lin Chen’s maintenance.

"All four aircraft have been repaired, and it's time to modify them!" Lin Chen said with a smile on his face.

On the third day after Fang Weihai took it away, the weather manufacturing radar had sufficient energy, and he then arranged for someone to transport it away.

At this moment, only the modification of the F20 fighter jet remains unresolved.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and said, "System, I plan to purchase four sets of Mirage fighter spare parts and devices, but I need to make some adjustments and reduce some configurations. Can it be done?" He knew very well that if he built four fighters with the same configuration as the original Mirage fighter, then the unique status of his own fighter would no longer exist.

Therefore, the four new fighters must be slightly inferior in performance.

"Master, it is possible to adjust the configuration." The system responded, "Please let me know the specific value that needs to be reduced."

Lin Chen nodded and fell into deep thought.

A few minutes later, he made a decision: "Adjust the power system to twenty times, reduce the energy storage in the energy tank by fifty percent, and keep other devices such as protection, stealth, and weapons unchanged."

With a comprehensive understanding of the Mirage fighter, Lin Chen accurately grasped the direction of adjustment.

Adjusting the power system to twenty times means that the new fighter will be five times slower than the original Mirage fighter, equivalent to the speed of an F20 fighter.

The reduction in energy storage in the energy tank has reduced the new fighter's endurance by 50 percent.

Although the adjustments seem small, in fact, these two changes are enough to create a significant gap between the new fighter and the original Mirage fighter, thus ensuring that Lin Chen's Mirage fighter still holds the world's number one throne.

"Okay," the system responded, "So, how many points do you need to purchase these adjusted parts?"

Lin Chen asked, already prepared in his heart.

He knew that the parts of the Mirage fighter were more advanced than those of the F20, so points were needed to purchase them.

"Master, the total price of the parts for four adjusted Mirage fighters is 30 points. But you currently do not have enough points to complete the purchase." The system replied.

Lin Chen was not surprised.

When purchasing F20 fighter spare parts, the system mentioned that the value of knowledge far exceeds the parts themselves.

Even if it only takes 30 points now, it is still a considerable amount for him.

He had 108 points before, but he had spent 83 points on purchasing modification blueprints and parts for the Mirage Fighter, and now only had 25 points left.

He considered whether he needed to further adjust the device values ​​to reduce costs, but the suggestions given by the system made him hesitate.

"The following adjustment plans are recommended for you." The system quickly analyzed and displayed three virtual panels, which listed three possible adjustment plans: lowering the value of the stealth device, lowering the value of the protective device, and lowering the value of the fuel tank device.

Stealth and protection are the two highlights of the Mirage fighter, and Lin Chen is naturally unwilling to compromise.

His eyes finally fell on the last item - adjusting the value of the fuel tank device.

"After adjusting the fuel tank device, how much fuel will the fighter carry?" he asked.

"It will be half the size of the original Phantom Fighter," the system replied.

This means that the fighter's endurance will be greatly reduced, but considering the improvement of the power system and the relative reduction in fuel consumption, the actual impact may not be too great.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and made a decision: "Okay, let's adjust the value of the fuel tank device."

"Are you sure you want to buy?" the system confirmed.

"Sure." Lin Chen answered decisively.

"Ding! Purchase successful!" the system prompted, "The parts required to modify the Mirage Fighter have been distributed to the system space."

The virtual panel in front of Lin Chen turned into a warehouse page, with pictures of different parts displayed on four small grids.

The successful completion of the important task of purchasing spare parts made him feel relieved.

He had been worried about not having enough points before, but now he can finally rest assured.

"Start modifying!" he gave the order.

He only spent 23 points to buy the adjusted Mirage Fighter parts, and now he has 2 points left.

Time flies, and a few days have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Get off work!" Lin Chen said with a smile while standing on the lift platform.

It was already five o'clock and time to get off work.

He landed on the ground with the elevator and walked out of the factory.

Before his eyes, a fighter plane with a unique shape, inward-curved wings and a peculiar fuselage came into view.

If Fang Weihai were here, he would definitely open his eyes wide and be amazed.

Because this fighter is exactly the same as the Mirage fighter that appeared over the Pacific Ocean before, except that the power system, energy and fuel tank device have been adjusted, its performance still surpasses any fighter in the world.

One has been converted, leaving three.

Lin Chen locked the rolling door, walked towards the rented Hongqi Hs7, and drove away.

More than an hour later, he returned home.

Fang Lan had not returned yet, so he went into the bathroom to take a shower and wash his clothes.

Only after he finished all these did Fang Lan go home from get off work.

Lin Chen walked into the kitchen and helped Fang Lan wash the vegetables.

Fang Lan was busy cutting tomatoes, preparing to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

She suddenly remembered something and asked, "Master Lin, did you go to the car dealership where Zhao Youliang works to rent a car?"

It turned out that Zhao Youliang did not maliciously mock Lin Chen, but just casually mentioned the matter to his classmates.

The classmates were curious after hearing this. After all, Lin Chen was so highly regarded by the military leaders, so why would he rent a car?

So, the matter spread.

It was only after Fang Lan heard Sun Fangwei mention this matter that she asked about Lin Chen out of curiosity.

She knew that being valued by the military did not mean being rich or having a good material life, and that scientists engaged in scientific research were not necessarily rich.

She was just curious about what Lin Chen was going to do with the car.

Lin Chen thought for a second and smiled: "Oh, you know about this. I recently took a business, but the journey is quite far, in the countryside, and I can't get a taxi, so I rented a car to drive."

"So that's how it is." Fang Lan did not doubt his explanation. She continued, "So your repair shop is doing pretty well?"

"Of course!" Lin Chen smiled confidently.

Fang Lan smiled and continued cutting vegetables.

She thought that the fact that Lin Chen could get door-to-door business showed that his repair shop was doing well.

Although she still feels that joining the company would provide better development prospects, she no longer says that.

Because she knew that this was Lin Chen's dream, and saying too much would only hurt his feelings.

She believed that when Lin Chen realized one day that his choice might be wrong, he would naturally choose to work in the company.

Time passed quickly, and a few days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the Linhai Military Region, Fang Weihai has been worrying about the fighter jet for some time.

He had no clues to look for, and no news came from the fleet cruising at sea.

The fighter jet seemed like an illusion or a dream, but they all knew that it was not a dream as evidenced by the video footage taken at the time.

Fang Weihai rubbed his swollen temples and let the matter go for the time being.

He suddenly thought of Lin Chen and was curious about what he was doing recently.

Especially the four scrapped F20 fighter jets, what does he plan to do with them?
