Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 71

The issue of installing 127mm guns on Baengnyeong Island was immediately brought up to the National Assembly as an emergency.

Of course, the approval was dropped under bipartisan cooperation due to the importance of the matter.

There was some disagreement over whether it would be better to use a self-propelled artillery rather than using a self-propelled gun, but since the purpose of the installation itself is focused on dealing with ships rather than ground bombardment, in the end, it was decided to use the artillery method.

In the case of the ground type, it is difficult to destroy a ship with double bulkheads in one hit, but also has firepower and speed. And in terms of range, it does not reach the maritime type.

[The final bankruptcy of Daeyu Motors.]

Meanwhile, another historical event occurred.

On the 8th of November, the much-talked-about Daeyu automobile finally went bankrupt.

The government and creditors rejected the self-rescue measures presented by Daeyou in 1999, and all 12 affiliates began to work out, but the creditors who could not find a solution to the excessive debt eventually declared bankruptcy.

[The government and creditors have suggested that they plan to sell Ssangwoong automobile and truck parts separately from Daeyou. It is known that Jaewoo Group is the most likely to acquire the company [...]

After a full month, the news of Jaewoo Group's entry into the automobile market again made headlines.

As a result, including Vice President Kim Young-gi, and Chairman Hyun-cheol and Han Myung-ho, they all went out of their way.

Contrary to concerns, the takeover process was also fairly easy, thanks to the fact that negotiations with the union of Ssangwoong Motors were not difficult, unlike the Daeyu passenger car division, which was a tough one.

[Jaewoo Group announced today that it will take over all workers of Ssangwoong Motors and Daeyou Trucks. Accordingly, the union agreed to return to normal operation soon, and thanks to this, Ssangwoong Motors, which suffered a long storm, is expected to enter the normalization phase soon.]

“It’s easy to say. Whose name is it to normalize a company that has gone bankrupt?”

Hyeon-cheol, who was watching the news, said with a tone of concern.

Seriously, how easy would it be to normalize Ssangwoong, who has nothing to promote other than RV vehicles?

But there really isn't any problem.

Not only have the advanced engine technology secured, but also the design that will hit the market in the future is already in my head.

If there is a missing part, it is the marketing part, which is ultimately related to manpower, so it will be resolved over time.

“Welcome, Chairman.”

It's the end of the year 2000.

Vice President Kim Young-gi, I, and Hyun-cheol visited Aerospace with the closing ceremony in front of their noses.

The purpose of the visit is to check the development progress of the Fighter Division, which is currently undergoing reverse engineering and inspection of the attack helicopter business, which has recently started to manufacture the fuselage.

In the case of attack helicopters, the engine replaced with the improved parts has been tested successfully. If this is the case, I wonder if it will be possible to release a prototype without armament by the end of next year.

“There are quite a few shape changes.”

The appearance of the fuselage I faced had many changes from what was first presented to me.

What is not too much is that the radar and other weapon systems themselves differ from those of the Black Shark.

Design changes are a natural result.

“At first glance, it looks like Havok, and at first glance, it feels more like inheriting the blood of Apache.”

“Since going to a two-seater in a tiered seating arrangement, of course, there is no choice but to give it that kind of feeling. But do you know that? It is said that 10,000 copies of the blueprints were made to make one such aircraft.”

CEO Yoon responded with a face that had become more emaciated.

Horses are representative, and he was confined to the factory for almost half of the year.

Feeling sad, I put my hand on his shoulder.

“You are working hard.”

“What is hard work? Now, let's go to the fighter division."

He moved like a zombie and led us to the factory across the street.

When the door was opened, what caught my eyes were one Sukhoi aircraft still in its intact form and another aircraft disassembled into parts.

When I saw it in front of my nose, I felt somehow overwhelmed by its majesty.

"Come this way."

After that, CEO Yoon led us to the design department.

There were over 100 design engineers involved.

Of these, 20 of them had brought the people who were in charge of designing the supersonic trainer from KAI, but fortunately, there was the president's intervention, otherwise there would have been a huge protest.

“They are pulling out nearly 500 blueprints a month.”

“You are having a hard time.”

“It’s not just suffering, it’s dying. I have a question, is it necessary to rush the design like this? If you don't get approval for your own development project like this, you're going to be a mess."

CEO Yoon, who had been watching the engineers working for a long time, said he was worried.

If it's me and you're not concerned about that, that's even weirder.

However, I hadn't even considered the case of the business decision being canceled in the first place.

Despite the will of the President, this project has already crossed a river of no return in many ways.

The burden that the government has to bear is too great for it to turn to overseas introduction now.

Although opinions on overseas introduction still remain, it is unlikely that the government will change its mind.

“You don’t have to worry about that, because it was said that the Blue House would make an announcement at the end of this year. He said that in the United States, from the beginning, they expected that we would go to self-development.”

As if to put an end to the concerns, Vice President Kim Young-gi added.

CEO Yoon tilts his head and asks if he was puzzled by what he said behind the scenes.

"...and what was expected in the United States, how?"

“Didn't the president bring super-heat-resistant alloy technology from negotiations with the United States before? Wouldn't it be rather stupid if they didn't know that it was their will to develop themselves?

"Ah!"

CEO Yoon then nodded his head.

As if he still had something to say, Vice President Kim Young-gi, who held his breath for a short period of time, continues his speech again.

“Even so, the Blue House said it was quite difficult.”

“·················ogue.”

CEO Yoon looked at Vice President Kim again.

I am also at the beginning of that.

I glanced at him, and he said with a displeased expression as if it had happened to him.

“Honestly, what kind of kids are Americans, would they get away from a stable market like South Korea so easily? Even if you admit it, you will take full advantage of the benefits.”

“What do you mean by profit?”

“It looks like he was fussing over to give me anything. Because of that, your Excellency said that you have reached an agreement behind the scenes to significantly increase the quota for imports of American agricultural products.”

“Hey, even if we’re lucky, then the damage to the farmers would be pretty big, right?”

CEO Yoon clicked his tongue as if he was dissatisfied with the reality of this powerless country.

He turns his head again to the engineers at work, and shakes his head as if thinking about it.

“Why, is there something wrong?”

I was curious about his expression, which was somehow meaningful, and asked.

“It’s good that the business is going on, but I’m worried that they will die if they get back on track. It is difficult to make 500 drawings every month right now, so if the amount of work increases dramatically, then there is no solution.”

That was the part I was worried about too.

In the case of KFX, even if an average of 1,700 blueprints were produced per month, it took 15 months to complete all the designs.

And we are in a position where we have to shorten the time.

No matter how much I have the design of KFX, if there is a change in the size of the fuselage, I have to actually design from the beginning, but it is practically unreasonable to handle it alone.

“Once the project is finalized, we should discuss the acquisition of KAI with the government immediately.”

“Do you have enough money for that?”

CEO Yoon said with the tone of being very worried.

There was a lot of bleeding from recent mergers.

Moreover, he seems to be worried about that recently as he is in a position where he does not pay attention to the financial situation of the Tong group.

“There is still enough money to spare. In the meantime, the performance growth has been quite large, and the amount of funds collected is also different from when CEO Yoon was at the head office. Even if you can’t afford it, there is a solution, so don’t worry about that.”

It was said with the institute's profits in mind.

Recently made as a subsidiary of Holdings. And since it is an undisclosed company, I own 100% of the shares.

Recently, trillions of dollars have been accumulated there for the export of US military semiconductors for the HVP system, and if necessary, you can consider mobilizing it.

“How about we take this opportunity to get some investment?”

Vice President Kim, who was suddenly listening to the story, intervened.

As he slowly turned his gaze, he resumed speaking.

“Didn’t you say that Crown Prince Hasad made an investment proposal according to the president’s words before? In fact, I think it would be good to receive investment from a strategic point of view.”

"It wouldn't be bad in terms of securing friendly forces. Let's think about it after securing an investment destination that can be put forward."

Well, it's not urgent right now.

"By the way, I haven't been paying attention lately, so what happened to the 127mm guns being installed on Baengnyeong Island?"

"Ah! There are guns in the military right now, so the 1st battery has already been installed, but the 2nd and 3rd batteries need to be ordered additionally, so it will take some time.”

It was fortunate that at least one battery was installed.

I don't know if it's right to think like this, but I think I'd rather they provoke one more time at this time.

If it wasn't for the sacrifice, I don't know, as much as we suffered damage. No, I think I'll have to give it back about a hundred times as much as I feel relieved.

In fact, it seems that I am not the only one who thought so, and I have heard that the operational radius of the guns in the archipelago includes even the northern coastal bases in Ryongryeong-gun.

In a nutshell, if you get caught, you're going to throw a lot of shit out of it.

“By the way, the problem with the construction of Baengnyeongdo Airport seems to be getting worse.”

“Why, did something go wrong?”

I stopped walking at the words of Vice President Kim that suddenly spit out.

Then he sneaked in the newspaper he was holding the whole time and pointed to the article that decorated the front page.

“The protests from environmental groups and other civic groups have been intensifying for the past few days.”

With that said, he looked at the newspaper.

Photos of people carrying pickets and pouring into the street.

At that moment, I remembered an incident that occurred in the past, or even before the return, and immediately turned to my phone.

"Wait."

I immediately called the head of the NIS.

The tiredness was evident in his voice, which was heard after several signals.

- What's going on, Chairman Jin?

“I was just having a conversation with Vice President Kim Young-gi, and there was one thing that came to mind.”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

-what······.

“The civic groups opposing the construction of the Baengnyeongdo airport now. Is it possible to keep track of accounts secretly?”

-·········.

The head of the National Intelligence Service was silent for a moment.

After a while, he hinted at him asking why.

“Obviously, quite a bit of money from the Chinese side would have been deposited into the accounts of individual civic groups.

- How is Chairman Jin so sure of that?

how to be sure

I'm pretty sure that's the case in my experience.

When we tried to build an airport in the border area.

China led the public opinion battle by recruiting civic groups.

As a result, the airport construction problem sank to the bottom of the water, and the construction of the airport was a controversial issue until just before I finally returned.

‘Anyway, his money matters.’

In fact, it wasn't just a technique used only in China.

It is the same with Japan, which mobilized far-right capital to hinder us every time.

When such a situation comes up, I always feel that this country has no luck as a neighbor.

“If we build an airport near the West Sea, who will be the most opposed? What's more, if you look closely at the claims of civic groups now, most of them are just coercion, don't you think it's because of their pure intentions?"

-·········.

Silence ensued for a while.

It wasn't until a few days later that the call came back soon.

- Haha... This is really, I don't know what to say.

The long sigh of the Director of the National Intelligence Service meant that my prediction was not wrong.

Not surprisingly, he reported that hundreds of millions of suspicious funds were deposited overseas from accounts of about 10 organizations.

“What are you going to do now?”

-The problem is that it's hard to explain this. It would be nothing but the result of the NIS inspecting the private sector.

“Then give me the account details.”

- What are you going to do?

“Isn’t it enough for the world to know that somehow?”

-·········.
