Start with the aviation industry

Chapter 257 Dare to fly in such weather
Minister Jiang also went to see today's air show, but he came back early and did not go to the exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group.

Although the booth was spacious and the location was excellent, there was only one "Tianlong" transport helicopter. He already knew this helicopter quite well. He even went to have a look at it for the first time after the opening of the air show yesterday, and then never went there again.

He spent all his time today visiting other aircraft, such as focusing on the Rafale fighter, the Tiger armed helicopter, and even the long-range strategic bomber exhibited by Lao Maozi.

Instead of going to the exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group, Minister Jiang came back early this afternoon, and even planned to take a few people to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, and everyone will cook a meal together in the evening.

As soon as he returned from buying vegetables in the supermarket, someone revealed to him that the booth of Leihuo Technology Industry Group was very lively, and a large number of people were visiting the "Tianlong" transport helicopter.

This is not the most important thing. What makes him a little excited is that Leihuo Technology Industrial Group has won a total of five intentional orders. Will continue to have intentional orders.

Too awesome!

Minister Jiang was overjoyed. As soon as Lin Feng and the others returned to the hotel, he passed by, and the first thing he said was, "Mr. Lin, I heard that you have already won five intentional orders, right?"

Lin Feng smiled, "Minister Jiang, it's not five, but a total of six intentional orders, and we won another intentional order in the afternoon."

what!
It turned out to be six!
"Mr. Lin, what are the intended orders, tell me quickly."

Lin Feng knew that Minister Jiang was the team leader, and he needed to report the intentional orders he had won. Since he came here on his own initiative, he would save himself the need to report to him, so he explained the situation of each order in more detail.

There are still countries in the Middle East who are ready to order 50 "Tianlong" transport helicopters at one go, and then the other orders are at least eight, usually more than a dozen, and the total number of six intentional orders has reached 122!
The price of each is 1500 million U.S. dollars, a total of 122 "Tianlong" transport helicopters, plus accessories, spare engines, maintenance services, technical guidance fees, etc., the total value exceeds 20 billion U.S. dollars!
Minister Jiang was a little stunned!

For several times in a row, we have sent domestic aviation companies to participate in the exhibition, but because we have no advantages in technology and no good products, every air show is relatively bleak. The best one was last year, and it was only 1000 It's just an intentional order of more than ten thousand dollars.

This year, in just two days, the total amount of intended orders may exceed 20 billion US dollars, which is simply a super satellite.

No, my heart was beating too hard, and I had to keep it steady. Minister Jiang took several deep breaths, trying to calm down the turbulent mood, and then carefully looked at the situation of each intentional order in person.

He also took out his notebook and recorded the basic information of these orders on the notebook himself. After doing this, Minister Jiang said, "Mr. Lin, the surprise you brought is too great, and I will report to the country now."

Then, I couldn't wait to start calling the country to report these situations.After these things are reported to the top, the top will also discuss and finally approve.

Of course, the possibility of all approvals should not be great, and the higher authorities will also have to weigh, which countries can sell and which countries are prohibited from exporting, Leihuo Technology Industry Group and other information from above will do.

Lin Feng also thought about it, even if half of them were approved, no, even if only one third of them were approved, he would have made a fortune and made a fortune.

The price of each foreign trade version of the "Tianlong" transport aircraft is 1500 million US dollars, not including other expenses, such as spare parts, spare engines, etc., it is simply a huge profit. such a situation.

Minister Jiang went to make a phone call for more than ten minutes, and then he was full of energy, his face was flushed, and he strode over, "Mr. Lin, I'm going to have a good celebration tonight. I'm going to buy two bottles of good wine and some vegetables. .”

Lin Feng said, "How can Minister Jiang spend money? I will arrange everything. There is a good restaurant nearby. Let's go to eat Western food. Everyone will be lively and lively."

Minister Jiang smiled happily, "Okay, let's go out to eat, Xiao Li, and let everyone know that you don't have to cook tonight, Mr. Lin treats you."

Leihuo Technology Industry Group, Phoenix Factory, Minister Jiang and others, together with people from several other aviation companies, only a few dozen people in total. Lin Feng generously treated the guests.

Another good French meal.

Minister Jiang said with emotion that he has participated in several Paris Air Shows, and today is the best time to eat.

The next day, the airshow continued.

It's just that when everyone was about to go out in the morning, they found that the weather was a bit wrong. It was sunny yesterday, but today it turned cloudy, and the sky was full of thick clouds.

He Hua said a little worriedly, "Boss, will it rain today?"

Lin Feng said, "The weather forecast says that it will turn cloudy to moderate rain today, and it is estimated that it will rain in the afternoon or evening, but just in case, everyone prepare a few more umbrellas."

Generally speaking, Paris in September is dominated by sunny weather, but it is not absolute. Weather changes are normal. In addition, the date of the air show was set as early as a month ago, and the organizer cannot guarantee that it will be sunny every day during the air show. sunny.

Today is the third day of the air show, and the first two days are professional days. The visitors who come to the air show are basically exhibitors, people in the world's aviation industry, relevant personnel from some schools and research institutes, and even representatives from various countries. Some politicians, military personnel of some countries and so on.

Today is the public day, open to ordinary people, as long as you buy a ticket, you can enter the air show site for a visit.

When Lin Feng and others arrived at the air show site, they found that it was obviously different from yesterday. The number of people who came to visit at least doubled, and it was even more lively than yesterday. You could even see quite a few families of three, or even a family of four or five.

There are people of all ages, young and old, and there are many children. They visit the air show site under the leadership of their parents, and even see the student groups organized by the school. A team of dozens of people visits the air show site under the leadership of the teacher. .

The weather was still gloomy, and it became even gloomy in the afternoon, and it even started to wind.

A staff member said worriedly, "Mr. He, it looks like there will be strong wind and heavy rain tomorrow. Is it really okay to perform a helicopter flight show in this weather?"

He Hua pondered for a while, "Let's listen to the boss's arrangement. In addition, pay attention to the weather forecast and the weather conditions tomorrow."

What is the scariest thing about flying a helicopter?

What I am most afraid of is the bad weather, especially the windy weather. The instability of the air flow has a huge impact on the flight of the helicopter, and if it is not done well, it will cause a flight accident.

Other air shows were a bit better. For example, although it was cloudy and windy this morning, there were still two professional air show teams performing professional air shows, feasting the eyes of the people who came to visit.

Perten's booth.

Of course, they were also paying attention to the weather, especially Pete, who had looked at the worsening weather more than once, but he didn't worry too much. If you looked closely, you would find that this guy actually had a somewhat happy look on his face.

I hope that the weather will be even worse tomorrow, and it is best if the wind blows a little bit stronger. If this is the case, Leihuo Technology and Industrial Group will probably retreat, and then they can seize this matter to make a fuss.

"Boss, you are here."

Seeing Sean bringing a few people over, Pete hurriedly greeted them.

Sean nodded, and then said, "I followed the latest weather forecast. There will be heavy rain and lightning tomorrow. This is a typical windy weather."

Pete said confidently, "Boss, please trust our Black Hawk helicopter. It is an all-weather helicopter. Even in such bad weather, it can fly. I think there is no problem."

Sean was a little uneasy, but he is not a technical person, and he is not very familiar with the performance of the Black Hawk helicopter, so he turned around and asked a technical director next to him, "What do you think?"

The technical director replied, "Peter is right, our Black Hawk is an all-weather helicopter, even if it is windy and rainy, it can still fly."

Seeing that both Peter and the technical supervisor answered in the same way, Sean was relieved, and looked at the booth of Leihuo Technology Industrial Group in the distance, thinking in his heart, will they cancel tomorrow's air show due to the weather conditions tomorrow.

Pete seemed to see what the boss was thinking, "Boss, if Leihuo Technology and Industry Group cancels the flight tomorrow, that would be a good thing for us, and we can make a big fuss about it."

Sean nodded, "I hope they can cancel tomorrow's flight, Pete, get ready, if Leihuo Technology and Industry Group really cancels the air show, then you should know what to do."

"Boss, don't worry, I know what to do." Pete replied.

In the evening, when the air show was about to end, the sky began to rain lightly, and many people began to leave early. Lin Feng and others also left the air show site. When they returned to the hotel, the light rain had turned into moderate rain .

Because of the rain, no one went out to eat. People from Leihuo Technology Industry Group and Wang Tianfang cooked and ate together.

People from Phoenix Factory went to the supermarket to buy a lot of vegetables, and Lin Feng contributed a few bottles of good wine, of course wine.

The food was still plentiful, and Mr. Wang personally showed his cooking skills to his subordinates. There were several dishes on the table that he fried.

Everyone chatted lively while eating, and the topic was of course related to the air show.

"Boss Lin, you have received another intentional order today, right?"

Lin Feng said, "I got another one. A country in North Africa wants to buy a total of 12 of our 'Tianlong' transport helicopters."

Today is an open day for the public, and most of the people who come to visit are ordinary people. Perhaps because of the large number of people, or because of changes in the weather, there are obviously fewer professionals in the aviation industry than in the previous two days of professional days.

It is good enough to win an intentional order on the public development day, but Lin Feng was a little surprised that it was a country in North Africa who wanted to buy its own "Tianlong" transport helicopter.

In everyone's impression, African countries are relatively poor, and this North African country actually wants to buy 12 instead of a few.This made Lin Feng look at him with admiration. This intentional order was not expected, it was completely unexpected.

After chatting about this intended order, the topic turned to weather changes.

Wang Tianfang said, "I didn't expect the weather to change and it's raining. The weather forecast says that there will be heavy rain, strong wind, and lightning tomorrow. Mr. Lin, will you cancel your flight plan for tomorrow?"

Wang Tianfang is not the first to ask this question. Several people have asked this question before, including Minister Jiang.

Lin Feng said, "No matter what the weather is like tomorrow, it will still fly tomorrow."

A middle-level manager at the Phoenix Factory reminded, "Boss Lin, if it is really windy and rainy, it would be very dangerous to fly in such a climate."

Lin Feng smiled confidently, "It is indeed very dangerous, but that is for other helicopters. I think our 'Tianlong' has no problem."

The rest of the Phoenix factory didn't say anything anymore, and many people prayed in their hearts, God bless, don't let anything go wrong tomorrow, don't!
Wang Tianfang understood Lin Feng's character and knew that he would do what he said. Feeling the confidence exuding from Lin Feng, he felt relieved and said loudly, "Let's start early tomorrow and arrive at the air show on time. At the scene, everyone cheered for Mr. Lin and the others."

"no problem!"

"We must arrive at the air show site as soon as possible."

Everyone answered like this one after another. While sweating for Lin Feng, they also wanted to see the flight situation tomorrow. In such bad weather, what would this "Tianlong" transport helicopter look like? .

"Mr. Lin, I heard that at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning, the Black Hawk helicopter will also fly. Is there such a thing?"

Facing the concern and inquiry from a certain technician of the Phoenix Factory, Lin Feng replied, "There is indeed such a thing."

Wang Tianfang said, "This arrangement is very meaningful, Mr. Lin, come on, we must fight for a breath tomorrow, and we will all go to the air show to cheer for you."

"En." Lin Feng nodded, "Don't worry, we will perform well tomorrow."

The fourth day of the airshow is the second day of the public open day.

The weather is not beautiful, as reported in the weather forecast, today is a typical windy and rainy weather.

Early in the morning, Lin Feng, Wang Tianfang, and Minister Jiang all had breakfast and were ready to leave for the air show.

It's raining so hard!
Everyone is holding an umbrella. The big black umbrella provided by the hotel may not be able to block such a heavy rain if it is a small umbrella. There are dozens of people in a minibus or a bus. Today, everyone All out.

Knowing that Leihuo Industrial Group's "Tianlong" transport helicopter will be displayed at the air show today, Minister Jiang personally issued an order to go to the scene to refuel Leihuo Technology Industrial Group.

Everyone got into the car one after another, and the two cars left the hotel to go to the air show site. It was raining heavily outside, but the car was very lively. Everyone was talking about the helicopter flight show that will start this morning.

"The rain is really heavy, and I hope it will lighten up during the flight demonstration."

"It's still windy, I hope nothing happens."

"The Black Hawk helicopters in the beautiful country are also flying demonstrations at the same time. Damn it, they must have done it on purpose."

"."

At [-] o'clock in the morning, after more than an hour of driving, everyone finally arrived at the air show site. Although it was raining, it still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of ordinary people. It seems that the number of people visiting the air show today is not much less than yesterday.

Not long after arriving at the air show, Marcia, Brown's assistant, took the initiative to ask for Lin Feng's opinion very politely.

"Mr. Lin, today's weather is quite bad. Is the flight demonstration originally planned to start at 9 o'clock cancelled?"

Lin Feng said, "As for Perten, will the flight demonstration of the Black Hawk helicopter be cancelled?"

Marcia said, "I went to consult them just now, and they insisted on a flight demonstration."

Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled meaningfully, knowing very well what was going on in his heart, the other party probably wanted to cancel the flight demonstration by himself, and then they would seize this matter to make a big fuss, and immediately stand on the commanding heights of public opinion.

Leihuo Technology and Industry Group backed down, while Pertone conducted a flight demonstration under such harsh conditions. The situation can be imagined.

Lin Feng said, "Since the Black Hawk helicopters are flying in such weather, our 'Dragon' will be even more problem-free, and the flight demonstration will proceed as planned. "

"Ok."

Marcia left with a little helplessness. The two companies seemed to be working hard. As the organizer, it is not easy to interfere too much, so the flight demonstration will continue as usual.

Not long after, the tractor came over and towed the "Tianlong" transport helicopter to a designated location in the distance under the eyes of many people.

Zhu Guangzu boarded the helicopter with his partner and began to do some preparations before takeoff. Soon, a Black Hawk was also pulled over and stopped at the designated position. The distance between the two helicopters was less than 200 meters. rice.

Seeing this scene, many people were talking about it.

"My God, there is still a flight demonstration in such bad weather."

"God, don't let anything go wrong."

"."

The two helicopters stopped at the designated location, attracting the attention of many people. A large number of people watched the two helicopters from a distance, discussing them enthusiastically, and some people picked up their cameras and began to take pictures from a distance.

Some reporters even set up cameras and pointed their lenses at the two helicopters.

"That's the Black Hawk helicopter, it's famous!"

"What is the model of the helicopter next to it, and which company made it? It looks bigger than the Black Hawk. I don't know how it performs."

"I admire you, you dare to perform flight demonstrations at the same time as the Black Hawk helicopter, and in such bad weather conditions, your courage is commendable."

"."

Most of the people visiting the air show today are ordinary people and some aviation enthusiasts. It seems that there are not many real professionals. It is normal not to know the "Tianlong" transport helicopter.

Today is still an update of [-] words, first send [-] words, continue to code words, there are still [-] words in the afternoon.
