Great warships

Chapter 488 Accidentally Became the God of Gamblers
The construction of 056 was also very smooth.

Of course, since the number 055 has not been used yet, there is no official number 056 in the navy. Currently, it is called 666 in the shipyard or in the navy.

For such a frigate with a displacement of about 666 tons, Mingzhou Shipyard can safely launch it within a year. However, until the third day when Qin Tao returned to Mingzhou Shipyard, the frigate The No. [-] frigate was finally launched.

For no other reason than simply lack of time.

At the time of design, Yang Dawei and the others didn't take it seriously and procrastinated. When the navy's funds arrived, they started manufacturing. The berth was full. Although a track was reserved for No. 770, the construction workers also Insufficient!

The 054 side needed experienced workers, and part of it was taken away for the submarine building. Later, the progress was accelerated for a while, but as the aircraft carrier and cruiser started to return to the shipyard, a large number of workers were taken away again.

In the words of the navy, it is to whip the Mingzhou Group away with a whip.

Now, it is already August of 95, and less than two years have passed since that important moment. The Mingzhou Group has just launched this warship!
This made many people very dissatisfied.Especially the ones waiting to meet it.

Many leaders came to the launching ceremony that day. Liu Wu, the leader of the Pearl of the Orient, immediately expressed his dissatisfaction face-to-face after seeing Qin Tao.

"President Qin, although the displacement of this warship is not high, it is of great significance. It represents the new image of our navy. Your Mingzhou Group's airs are getting bigger and bigger, and you actually let us slow down."

Liu Wu is really upset, it's an imminent matter, and you guys are still delaying it!
It’s only launched now. According to this progress, it will take a year or two for outfitting. The weapons and equipment that have just been delivered to the troops have no combat effectiveness. Even the naval officers are not familiar with the operation. They will be stationed in the new port. What if something happens? What about accidents?
"You can't blame us for this." Qin Tao said, "We built it according to the appropriation given by the navy. If the appropriation from the navy is not in place, our project will not be fast!"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Wu became dumb.

This reason is really good.

How do you work without money?

Although the Mingzhou Group is very rich, they can't keep giving them money, can they?
"Needless to mention the 666, the Navy has not paid us even the money for polishing the aircraft carrier." Qin Tao said: "Although our group has a big business, we can't go on like this!"

Since the Dongfang Haicheng is not yet a naval order, it is still hung under the banner of Chuanglv Company, so the navy has delayed it first. Anyway, when Chuanglu Company just opened, it paid a lot of money. Just use that money first.

Moreover, Qin Tao is also willing to pay for the repair of the aircraft carrier.

However, 666 is different. A light frigate was originally forced by the navy to the Mingzhou Group. Qin Tao didn't like it at all. If the money is not in place, how can he work hard for them.

"Well, even if the money is not in place, this is a historic task. You must complete it on time, and you must not delay our use." Liu Wu said.

"If the money is not in place, we can't guarantee it. How about giving this ship to other brother units for outfitting?"

For Qin Tao's irresponsible words, Liu Wu was very speechless, but there was nothing he could do.

"The navy is short of money now, Mr. Qin, you should develop your style." Seeing Qin Tao's uncooperative appearance, another leader beside him said.

Qin Tao smiled. On the one hand, the navy’s funds were not in place, and on the other hand, he valued things differently. This ship No. 666 is indeed very important. It is to show the face of the navy, but can face be eaten?

Strength is more important than face!Therefore, he couldn't wait to transform the No. 138 million-ton destroyer. The most important thing was to let this warship participate in next year's operations.

Therefore, No. 666 can only be delayed. Even if the funds are in place, the manpower is still insufficient. How can there be so many people.

After next year, it would not be a trivial matter to send a group of people over to complete the outfitting.

However, I have to find something for these people to do, so as not to keep staring at me.

Qin Tao rolled his eyes and had an idea.

"Leaders, you can't let the horses run and let the horses eat grass, right? Your lack of money is your business, and it has nothing to do with us. In short, we need money to work, even if you scold me I am an unscrupulous businessman without patriotism, and I admit it."

Everyone laughed bitterly, Qin Tao isn't patriotic?Then there will be no second patriotic person to come. The development of the navy and even the development of the aviation force all depend on Qin Tao.

However, by saying this, Qin Tao made it clear that he would not make it without paying.

"For you, it seems to be a very difficult thing. In fact, if you change your thinking, it is relatively simple."

Change your mind, easy?
Everyone looked at Qin Tao curiously: "How?"

"Sell the decommissioned frigates of our navy, won't you make money if you sell them?"

I thought what kind of plan Qin Tao would come up with, but it turned out to be his own seller!

The faces of the big guys are a little ugly.

New three years, old three years, sewing and mending for another three years, everyone is used to living like this, a broken house is worth tens of thousands, so how can they be willing to sell it?
Besides, can the navy's little possessions be sold?Who can see it?

"Mr. Qin, please tell me in detail." A leader said, this is purely a kind of respect for Qin Tao.

"At present, our navy has begun to receive 054 frigates. The previous frigates are too old and must be gradually phased out. It is not cost-effective to dismantle these eliminated frigates and sell them as scrap iron. I suggest that they be decommissioned After dismantling some of the key equipment, the frigate that came down was sold to the coast guard."

When the People's Republic of China was just founded, due to the lack of awareness of the ocean, it was not at all interested in the police work at sea. It was not until July 1964, when the State Oceanic Administration was formally established, that there was a professional ocean management unit. However, at first it was still Managed by the Navy.

In 78, with the spring breeze of reform, major changes took place in the marine situation. The comprehensive management of the ocean needed to be strengthened, and the overall planning and coordination of marine development and utilization activities needed to be strengthened.At the same time, the "National Marine Environmental Protection Law" was drafted. In order to defend this law, a fleet of maritime patrol surveillance was formed.

In the same year, the navy transferred some people to form a maritime public security patrol team.

In addition to the patrol team of the fishery administration unit, there are a total of three police units,
The three police officers were merged into the Armed Police Headquarters, and the Sea Patrol Brigade was also assigned to it.

In this way, until 88, the Maritime Public Security Patrol was renamed the Maritime Police, and it was under the leadership of the Public Security Frontier Defense.As a maritime armed law enforcement force directly led by the Public Security Bureau, it is mainly responsible for safeguarding the sovereignty of the country's territorial waters and maritime rights and interests, exercising the power of state administration, maintaining law and order at sea, and serving economic construction and development.

Its mission is the same as that of the coast guards of other countries.

Therefore, from this point of view, the Coast Guard and Customs are not the same department. However, since they are the police at sea, it is of course their bounden duty to combat smuggling. They do not know how many smuggling gangs they have cracked down on. Rise up for police duty.

This also means that the coast guard has a lot of money on hand!

"Sell it to the coast guard?" Hearing Qin Tao's suggestion, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Our Type 01 frigates were all decommissioned last year. However, this kind of warship uses steam turbines and needs to burn boilers. The Coast Guard must not like it." The leaders present have already analyzed: "As for the Type 65 frigates, they all belong to the Southern Fleet. They are like treasures, and they are reluctant. The most suitable one for us is 053K!"

"Is that meritorious ship 531? Wouldn't it be a pity if it was sold to the coast guard?" Someone raised objections.

After the Type 65 frigate, it was the 053K. At that time, the navy was in urgent need of air defense force, so this frigate was specially designed as an air defense frigate. It was planned to carry the famous Hongqi-61 air defense missile.

It's a pity that this kind of missile was so difficult to produce that it was finally installed on warships in the late 80s. By that time, it would have been outdated.

A total of two warships of the same type were produced, with hull numbers 531 and 532. The second ship had a serious collision accident, which led to its withdrawal from active service early. Only No. 531 was just retired last year.

If it is suitable, only this No. 531 is the most suitable, but this is a meritorious frigate that has participated in the southern sea battle!
According to the original plan, after the warship is decommissioned, it will be exhibited in the Naval Museum as a testimony of the navy's achievements. After all, in the navy's sequence, there are not many warships that have participated in battles.

If you sell it to the coast guard to make money, wouldn't you also sell your honor?

"It's not my concern to sell any warships, but as long as you can sell one or two, you should be able to raise enough money for outfitting. If you want to see this warship enter service as soon as possible, you have to think about it." way to raise money.”

At this moment, Qin Tao felt like Huang Shiren.The navy is like Yang Bailao, in order to raise money, he needs to sell his daughter.

"Hey, it would be great if our navy has the money-making ability of your Mingzhou Group. Even your green company is so rich."

"How did Chuanglv Company get rich? We are almost bankrupt." Qin Tao said.

According to Qin Tao's plan, the Oriental Maritime Blockade has already been obtained, and as it is gradually refitted, it will always reveal the true face of Lushan Mountain. At this time, it is necessary for the golden cicada to get out of its shell and let Chuanglv Company go bankrupt.

"What bankruptcy? What's the name of the person in charge of your Chuanglv Company... Vitalia, who has become the Goddess of Gamblers in Magang. She can make millions just by going around the market. How could it be bankrupt."

what?
Qin Tao opened his eyes wide in surprise.

At the beginning, Vitalia came to join Qin Tao. According to Qin Tao's statement, Vitalia came to find a way out.

Coming to the east and creating a green company together was originally a simple project, and the green company was just a shell.

Who would have thought that Chuanglv Company would be farther and farther away from bankruptcy?How could this be?
"Leaders, the time has come." Qin Baoshan interrupted everyone's conversation: "Now, can our warship be launched?"

"Of course." Liu Wu became excited again, and we will talk about raising money later. Now, they are here to participate in the launch ceremony of No. 666.

"This warship is painted white, it looks very pure like a girl." One person sighed, "It's much better than the navy gray we used to have!"

"That's right, our Pearl of the Orient's naval equipment must have this eye-catching color."

Everyone is already familiar with the appearance of this warship. This stealth appearance looks very tall, and with the white paint, it is even more conspicuous.

Qin Tao smiled: "Everyone, this is not just for eye-catching. This is a special coating for naval ships specially developed by our domestic departments. Our No. 666 is the first warship to enjoy this coating."

Is there any knowledge about this paint?
Everyone is curious.

However, the launch ceremony is going to be held now. As the user representative, Liu Wu is personally responsible for the action of smashing the bottle. There is no need for a special rope to hang it. He can just throw the bottle and let the bow of the ship overflow with hops.

During the lively ceremony, No. 666, like several other warships, went backwards into the water, amidst the splashing waves, everyone applauded.

Although the displacement is not large, the significance of this warship is great!
At this time, a dark cloud covered the sun. In the eyes of everyone, the appearance of No. 666, which was waiting for outfitting, began to change gradually. It was originally white, but now it seems to be slightly turning gray! .

"Is it a chameleon?" a leader said in surprise.

"Yes, it can be said that under strong sunlight, this kind of warship will appear bright white, and when the light is not strong, it will appear dark gray, especially on the sea line, this color is very close to the background The color tone can be integrated with the sea skyline."

"It's amazing!" The people present all sighed with emotion.

Needless to say, other things, just paint, are so arrogant!
"Actually, the discoloration is secondary, and it can also be said to be an unexpected gain. When the relevant departments are researching this kind of coating, the first consideration is to absorb radar waves."

Absorb radar waves?
Everyone opened their eyes wide again.

Speaking of invisibility devices, they are definitely the most advanced thing in this era. They are all invisible on airplanes and warships.

In addition to the design of the shape, the stealth coating is also crucial.

Experts have also developed many different types of absorbing coatings, hoping to choose the most suitable one.

Several types have been developed now, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, ferrite absorbing coatings are cheap, but the absorption effect is not high; carbonyl iron absorbing coatings have strong absorption capacity, but large surface density; is absolutely inappropriate.Applying a layer, the result is that the weight of the aircraft has increased by half a ton or even a ton, which is absolutely not worth the loss.But there is no problem on the warship.

The wave-absorbing paint used for aircraft is still under development, but it is already available on warships. In the past, warships in the East only had a tall and stealthy shape, but there was no related paint. Now it is finally making up for this gap.

Moreover, the current paint also has the property of discoloration, which is an unexpected harvest.

The tugboat started to tow the launched No. 666 to the outfitting dock, and the vacated berth will be used to build the next foreign trade frigate.

Everyone also came to the outfitting pier, boarded this warship that had not yet been outfitted, and was deeply moved by its beautiful appearance. After this warship arrived at the Pearl of the Orient, it would definitely become the most eye-catching presence there. !
Qin Tao accompanied the leaders to have a good time, and after dark, he stayed with the leaders for dinner, and some leaders even stayed in the guest house of Mingzhou Group for one night.

After seeing off the leaders, Qin Tao also embarked on the road to Magang.

"Is Vitalia really that magical? Is there something behind this?" On the way, Qin Tao asked Xu Zhengyang a series of questions.

As Qin Tao's secretary, Xu Zhengyang is very qualified. He immediately handed Qin Tao the materials that he had compiled overnight, and at the same time, gave a brief introduction.

"Many of these things are not clear. In the beginning, perhaps Mr. He did instruct him to take care of her, but later on, Vitalia made more and more money, and it was impossible for her to win all the time. Moreover, the identities of the people who confront Vitalia are getting higher and higher, and the side of the jam must be impartial, but Vitalia can win almost every time, and after winning, she can still win. He retreats completely, does not love to fight, and often only plays one or two games. Over time, he got such a nickname."

In fact, Xu Zhengyang, the secretary, has a lot of work to do, so he can't cover everything. He only started sorting out the information last night. After sorting out, he came to a conclusion that made him feel emotional: certain people, Really talented.

Of course, there is one more important thing: Vitalia's backstage is tough, no one dares to mess with it, if other people enter the blocking field and win money, it is impossible to bring the money back, and stop blocking, How can I leave after losing everything.

But who dares to mess with Vitalia?Seeing what happened to the first boss who provoked Vitalia back then, you have to stop.

"Oh, Vitalia really caused me a lot of trouble." Qin Tao also felt emotional.

It is impossible for Qin Tao to take Vitalia with him all the time. After the Dongfang Haidu came back, Qin Tao and Vitalia separated. Vitalia could not always pester Qin Tao, so he put his energy He was eating, drinking and having fun, and in the end, he accidentally became a gambler?
With such emotions, Qin Tao came to Magang, and first went to the headquarters of Chuanglv Company. Several employees there were working listlessly.

"What about you, President Wei?"

"Wei always sleeps. She sleeps during the day and plays at night." An employee said casually. He glanced up and then lowered his head, as if he was dismissive of Qin Tao. However, he seemed to think of something, and the next moment , and suddenly stood up from the chair.

"President Qin, welcome. President Qin, please go to the VIP room, and I'll make you a cup of coffee." The employee said nervously.

President Qin!

Although it can't be seen from the outside, there have been various rumors that their Chuanglv Company has shares in Mingzhou Group, and the relationship between Mr. Qin of Mingzhou Group and Vitaria, the boss of their Chuanglv Group, is very close. than usual.

President Qin came, but they actually neglected him.

"Okay." Qin Tao nodded and walked towards the VIP room.

Not long after, Vitalia ran over excitedly: "Qin, you are here! During your absence, I was so bored, I found some men to play with, and soon got tired of it After that, I can only go to the crowd to join in the fun, but I am very restrained, I only play one or two games at a time, who would have thought that they would always let me!"

let you?
Qin Tao was also very speechless to Vitalia's statement. Who would give in to a female gambler?

Luck is one thing, skill is another, and the most important thing is that Vitalia is not greedy for money, she just went there with the mentality of playing.

Greed is the most important reason why gamblers lose money.

At this time, Qin Tao continued to ask with infinite emotion in his heart, "Then how much money do you have now?"

"It's not much. Every time I take tens of thousands to play, if I'm lucky, I can earn a few million back. Now, it's probably several billion. I haven't counted it. Qin, you If needed, this money can be given to you at any time, anyway, it was won with the company's money."

Billions!
Even if Vitalia is talking about Hong Kong dollars, there are hundreds of millions of RMB, more than [-] million U.S. dollars, this Vitalia is really amazing!
"However, I have recently felt that blocking the field is not interesting. I evened out the 15K, which is interesting."

What? 15K was settled by Vitalia?
He lost money at the beginning, okay? If you play like this, you will have a bad reputation in the world!

Qin Tao was speechless: "How did you do it?"

"Just as you taught me, I shipped some things back from China and sold them to some people who couldn't get along in the Pearl of the Orient, and let them come to Magang for development. Then, they had a conflict with 15K. I But it really didn't do anything!"

Qin Tao's head is a little big, you are playing with fire, you think it's fun, what about the future?In the future, our security work will be in trouble!

However, Qin Tao still held back his anger. After all, he has no right to criticize this eldest sister.

"Did someone die? Don't leave any trouble behind." Qin Tao could only ask in this way.

"Of course, the head exploded, just like smashing a watermelon with a fist." Vitalia said: "I was looking for men to play with in a nearby hotel at the time, and I saw it all with my own eyes. It was so interesting. "

Come on, a Pandora's box has been opened, and it will not be easy to close the devil in the future.

"You're getting richer and richer, so we can't proceed with the follow-up issues of the Green Creation Company we're planning!" Qin Tao continued to worry.

Originally, the company was going to go bankrupt, but now the boss of the company has become a god of gamblers, how could it go bankrupt?

Output all at once?Of course not, it would be bad for Vitalia's reputation!

"Our company is rich, so we can't look down on that broken ship, can't it?" Vitalia said: "Or, when the ship was being rebuilt, something happened. After our company's evaluation, for the sake of safety , decided to abandon that ship."

It's not that our company has a problem and we can't afford it, but that our company doesn't like it!

　After replying to dozens of book reviews, only one seems to be successful. . .
