Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

Grumman is destined to become a backdrop in Chengdu's growth history, and in fact, whether intentionally or not, Grumman played an indispensable role in Chengdu's rise.

Tu Jinda lamented: "Liu Shujing, Li Youlai and I, twenty-seven of them, stayed at Grumman for three years. We were not shy about visiting their engine production workshop and aircraft design, and we were also cooperating with Grumman designers. At the same time, we also learned a lot!”

Mr. Sun smiled and said: "Lao Tu and his group of twenty or so went to the United States, and the headquarters allocated them US$450,000 in funding. When they came back last year, there were still US$400,000 left over the US$200,000. Seven people spent $50,000 in three years, I don’t know how they survived!”

Fifty thousand divided by twenty-seven, that’s less than two thousand dollars per person. Divided by three years, that’s just over six hundred dollars per person per year, which is less than two dollars per person per day.

Tu Jinda said with a smile: "Grumman arranged a site for us. The big guys live in the factory. There are open spaces in the front and back. Huang Shengjun planted vegetables in the front and back. Qiu Chuan also raised some chickens and ducks. For food, It’s settled.”

Zhao Zhongshu said with a smile: "I heard that the U.S. Tax Bureau came to our door because of this and took Lao Tu away to drink coffee..."

Tu Jinda said: "I saved food for three days, and then I was released after Grumman came forward to coordinate. I paid a tax of three hundred dollars. Damn it, I was scared. In the United States, one is a lawyer who is not easy to mess with, and the other is The tax bureau..."

"Hahaha……"

The three of them sent Zhao Guoqing to Chengfei's guest house and arranged the highest-level room. Zhao Guoqing thought there was some project, but the three of them turned around and left.

After Zhao Guoqing took a shower and put on his pajamas, someone knocked on the door.

It’s General Master Zhao!

After Zhao Zhongshu entered the door, he thought about it and said it directly.

"National Day, please ask me for help!"

"..."

What he said, Zhao Guoqing said: "General Master Zhao, you are not an outsider, so just say it!"

Zhao Guoqing just asked behind him how much it would cost. If he saw Jack Ma, Zhao Guoqing would definitely step forward and press him.

"I'm not interested in money!"

Zhao Zhongshu said: "National Day, it's like this. Chengdu Aircraft has been established for so many years, but we still haven't achieved any good results. We have also worked hard for the Super 7 project this time. CATIC has given us opportunities for external exchanges. Three Queen, we will go to Moscow to talk to Mikoyan, or maybe Sukhoi!"

"..."

Zhao Zhongshu continued: "There are also the British Marconi Company, Rolls-Royce Company, the Royal Aeronautical Research Institute of the United Kingdom, France's Snakma, and SAGEM, all of which will be visited this time..."

Zhao Guoqing was a little confused after traveling to so many countries and seeing so many companies. Naturally, he could see Cheng Fei's embarrassing situation.

"You are an expert in avionics, but we are not sure about radar transmission and control, so I hope you can take time to join our inspection group..."

Zhao Guoqing didn't think about it for a few minutes and said with a smile: "What did I think it was? It's no problem!"

The window will be closed soon. If I don’t take a few more glances in these few months, I’d be sorry for myself!

"You agreed!" Zhao Zhongshu couldn't believe it.

Zhao Guoqing nodded, and there was nothing he couldn't agree to. He couldn't help much with the five-axis machine tool surveying and mapping. His automation control technology level was still at the university level.

Zhao Guoqing asked: "Take a plane or a train?"

Zhao Zhongshu said: "On August 21st, at three o'clock in the afternoon, we will set off from the Beijing Airport!"

Zhao Guoqing said: "Commander Zhao, please report to the leader. I want to bring some goods, leaving one ton!"

"……OK!"

Just after Zhao Zhongshu left, Zhao Guoqing called Office 102. He said to Zhou Li: "Assistant Zhou, help me purchase a batch of small commodities such as light-emitting semiconductor flashlights and projectors produced by Datacom Company, semiconductor radios and walkie-talkies produced by Lucheng Electronics Factory. , I also get 200 units of Zhongxun’s analog mobile phone, and I also get 50 units of the high-end G2880..."

Zhou Li didn't ask why and agreed one by one.

Zhao Guoqing said: "Assistant Zhou, let's do this. Prepare another 100,000 US dollars in cash, and then contact Wison International Hong Kong and ask them to contact HSBC to issue a bearer cashier's check of 10 million US dollars. Don't issue one, 100,000 US dollars." For one US dollar, open one hundred... um... let's open two hundred... After you're done, go directly to the capital and follow me to Moscow..."

"good!"

After that... Zhao Guoqing called Yang Qing again...

…

Zhao Zhongshu walked out of the guest house, but neither Tu Jinda nor Sun Weijia left.

"How about it?"

"National Day agreed!"

Tu Jinda nodded and said, "My guess is right. Just look at the things he did. If he wanted to make money, he would have gone abroad long ago. When he arrived in the United States, just one light-emitting semiconductor would be enough for him to last ten lifetimes." !”

Mr. Sun also expressed his feelings about Teacher Xiao Zhao’s style.

"Compared to the 101 and 102 institutes he founded, I feel that light-emitting semiconductors are nothing. I remember that a high-purity gallium nitride crystal caused a sensation in the scientific community and filled a gap in the country. Do the math, What a void he has filled now!”

"..."

I can’t count them on one hand…

Tu Jinda talked about the five-axis machine tool again.

"This Zhao Guoqing, whatever the country lacks, he will do it. Unexpectedly, he can still succeed..."

It's so strange...

…

The next day, Zhao Guoqing came to Factory 542, Shanghai Microelectronics Research Institute, Huaqing High-Precision Machinery Research Institute, Factory 317, Xi'an Aircraft Engine Processing Factory, Jinling Machine Tool Factory... and more than 170 scientific research projects from 27 companies. The personnel gathered together, and the General Staff also sent representatives to participate.

"The machine can only be dismantled by one person, and two more assistants will be added. Once a part is disassembled, it will be numbered. The entire disassembly and assembly process needs to be videotaped..."

Li Dongliang, the director of Factory 542, reported the disassembly plan. At this time, his heart was bleeding, and the expression on his face was as if he had eaten bitter melon.

"What a great five-axis machining center. It's just been dismantled. I don't know if it can be put back together. Even if it is put back together, can it still be used? Even if it can be used, can it still maintain this accuracy..."

Li Dongliang felt like he was going to cry.

Zhao Guoqing has nothing to say. How can he know how others do it without dismantling it? He hopes that this five-axis machining center can bring some ideas to the stabilization system of the photolithography machine table.

If the problem of the photolithography machine can be solved, even if the five-axis machine tool fails, it will die in its proper place.

Besides, there are seven of the country's top machine tool factories on site. It would be good to bring some inspiration to them in designing domestic CNC machine tools...

"dismantle!"

Li Jinmin, a senior technician at Factory 542, calmed down his emotions and walked to the machine with a solemn expression...
