Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

"The climate here is completely different from ours!" After getting off the bus, Zhang Chao looked at the gloomy sky above and smelled the dampness in the air, and said with emotion, "Luckily, we took off our thermal underwear on the train, otherwise we would have been covered in prickly heat."

Although it is already April, the weather in Chixian is still cold, and there may even be frost during the spring cold.

Young people like Qin Yang and Zhang Chao are just right to wear common thermal underwear of this era, while older people have to wear sweaters and woolen trousers.

What about here?

The daytime temperature here is already around 20 degrees!

"Let's go, let's take the bus.

Time is tight, it's best to get the business settled today and let them process it for us first," Qin Yang said, adjusting his tie that he had put on on the train.

"Yangzi, do you know which bus to take?"

"You can ask if you don't know."

While speaking, he walked to the side of a sentry box, and Qin Yang asked inside, "Comrade, which bus goes to Huangtianba?"

Huangtianba?

"Yangzi, aren't we going to Factory 132?" After asking about the bus, Zhang Chao asked Qin Yang with some surprise.

"Factory 132 is in Huangtianba, let's go, the bus is here!"

The two got on the bus.

It wasn't rush hour, so they could still find seats.

After sitting down, Zhang Chao looked at the words on the seat and was very curious: "Chengfei Manufacturing?

Is this Chengfei the one that makes airplanes?

Looking at the words 'Chengfei Manufacturing' on the seat, Qin Yang was also recalling the origin of Chengfei.

In 1958, Factory 132 officially started construction.

At that time, it was known as the State-owned Emei Machinery Factory, and the address was in Huangtianba.

It was completed in 1964 and became a large-scale aviation enterprise with tens of thousands of employees.

In November of that year, the J-5A aircraft successfully made its first flight here.

Two years later, the JJ-5 aircraft successfully made its first flight, and the factory's military product production changed from surveying and imitation to modification and trial production.

After that, it began to produce modern J-7 fighters.

In March 1970, the J-7I aircraft successfully made its first flight, and in 1975, the J-7II aircraft was finalized, but in that era, the quality of the products produced was very poor.

In 1979, in order to communicate with the outside world, Factory 132 became Chengdu Aircraft Company, and the factory director became the company manager.

Their products also began to develop from military products to various directions, from large refrigerators, washing machines, and motorcycles to small bus seats.

They have produced everything related to machinery.

On the road of military to civilian use, Factory 132 is at the forefront.

The seat in front of them was produced by Chengfei, but the Chengfei of this era is not the same concept as the Chengfei of later generations.

The Chengfei of later generations was a group formed after the merger of Institute 611 and Factory 132 in the 1990s.

The current Chengfei is Factory 132 itself.

After getting off the bus, Zhang Chao followed Qin Yang excitedly, watching the factory gate in the distance getting closer and closer, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

"Yangzi, we are only processing ten sets of parts, an order of four or five hundred yuan, can they process it for us in time?"

Zhang Chao was worried.

"Why not?" Qin Yang said, "We are here to give them money, they have to treat us with respect like the God of Wealth.

Besides, this time it is ten sets, next time it may be one hundred sets, one thousand sets."

While speaking, the two had already walked to the gate.

At this time, there were still two people standing outside the gatehouse, and one of the middle-aged men was pacing anxiously.

"What's going on, why hasn't Translator Wang arrived yet?

The Marconi Company is waiting anxiously!"

The young man comforted him, "Section Chief Zhang, don't worry, Translator Wang will definitely be here soon."

"Don't worry, how can I not worry?

The most important thing when we deal with foreigners is the concept of time.

They will think that we don't value them!

Now is the critical moment for the contract to be signed, we can't delay the time because of the translator!"

Dinglingling!

At this moment, the phone in the gatehouse behind him rang.

The old man guarding here answered the phone, and his face suddenly changed.

He put down the phone and shouted outside, "Section Chief Zhang, Translator Wang called.

The 212 they were riding in broke down on the road, and they are currently trying to get here as soon as possible!"

What, the car broke down on the road?

Section Chief Zhang was even more worried.

What should I do now?

"Do you need an English translator?

I can help."

A young man appeared in front of the two.

"Where are you from?

Can you translate?" Section Chief Zhang looked at Qin Yang in confusion, "The translation we need is not daily language, it involves many professional terms in aviation and radar.

Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand everything," Qin Yang said, "We are military industry colleagues.

I am from the technology section of Factory 960, and we are here to find Factory 132 to produce a batch of urgent parts."

After reading the letter of introduction and ordering drawings that Qin Yang handed over, Section Chief Zhang was a little confused: "A technician from a firearms factory is proficient in the vocabulary of our aircraft industry?"

It's not that Section Chief Zhang doesn't believe it, it's just that there are too few people who know it in this era!

In the past, because of the good relationship with the Soviet Union, the first foreign language in China was Russian.

In recent years, there have been many technical personnel who speak Russian fluently, and they have also reached a professional level, but English is different!

There are not many people who learn English in the first place, and most of them only know daily language.

Finding a professional English translator is more difficult than climbing to the sky!

At this moment, the phone in the gatehouse rang again.

"Section Chief Zhang, Director Tu called, the meeting is about to begin!"

"Okay, Qin Yang, right?

Come with me."

Section Chief Zhang finally stopped insisting and had to go ahead.

"Section Chief Zhang, our parts are also very urgent.

I hope you can arrange for processing as soon as possible."

"Okay, Xiao Zhao, take this guest to the workshop to find someone to process it!"

Section Chief Zhang arranged.

Zhang Chao followed Xiao Zhao and left, and Qin Yang followed Section Chief Zhang all the way to the conference room.

"Mr. Malina, our time is very precious.

Can the meeting start now?" Just as he walked to the door, Qin Yang heard the voice coming from inside.

"Mr. Malina, please wait a moment, our translator is still on the way," Director Tu said to the other party in broken English.

The contact with Marconi Company started in March last year.

During this period, Director Tu also learned English, but it is still very poor, and various professional terms also need to be looked up in a dictionary.

The communication between the two parties still requires a professional translator.

Cold sweat broke out on Director Tu's forehead.

Why hasn't Translator Wang arrived yet?

At this moment, a voice rang outside.

"Mr. Malina, I have arrived, we can start now!"

Authentic London English, even more fluent than their original translator!

The people in the conference room were immediately curious and looked over, seeing a strange young man appearing at the door.

Dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with a briefcase in his hand, so foreign!

"Everyone, we can start now.

I will be the translator for everyone."

Qin Yang sat between Director Tu and Malina and began to enter the role.

The Section Chief Zhang behind him quietly closed the door from the outside and felt relieved.

Qin Yang's tone was very skilled, it seemed that he was really professional!

This was a timely help!
