Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

Arriving in the capital, the train rattled into the station, and countless faces appeared in the windows. The bustling crowd displayed the capital's lively atmosphere.

After getting off the train, Qin Yang smelled the scent of firecrackers in the air. The New Year's atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger! This era is truly good.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Qin, the General Manager of Fangbei Industrial Company?" Before Qin Yang could finish his reflections on life, several people in white shirts and blue trousers approached him. The one in the lead asked respectfully.

"Yes, that's me. What's the matter?"

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Wang Gang. You can call me Little Wang. Our leader would like to invite you to Huanglou in Gongzhufen."

"I'll go with you." Looking at the attire of these people and listening to their words, Nie Xiaoqian guessed where they came from. She was worried!

How does that saying go? Good news doesn't travel, but bad news spreads like wildfire!

"Our leader only invited General Manager Qin alone."

Qin Yang looked at Nie Xiaoqian with a smile: "Xiaoqian, don't worry. They're just inviting me over for a chat. Nothing will happen. We just brought back Engineer Zhang and Engineer Xu. Go back and help arrange their work and living arrangements."

"But..."

"It's okay. What kind of situation haven't I, Qin Yang, seen before? Don't worry. Little Wang, right? Let's go."

Although Nie Xiaoqian usually liked to argue with Qin Yang a few times, she already had Qin Yang in her heart. A few words were enough to reveal her feelings, a process Qin Yang enjoyed very much.

After saying goodbye to the others, Qin Yang got into a 212 vehicle that the other party had driven over, looking at the scenery outside the window.

"Mr. Qin, you really are different from others. Aren't you worried at all?" One of the people who came to pick up Qin Yang couldn't help but ask.

"What's there to worry about? I've got dinner taken care of tonight, and I don't even have to spend a meal ticket. I haven't eaten at Huanglou before."

Qin Yang was very open-minded.

In the 1950s, several buildings with the structure of temples and flying eaves were built on the west side of the capital, south of Gongzhufen. Among them, a yellow office building and a gray residential building were particularly eye-catching. This was the famous Navy Compound.

Qin Yang was currently mainly building weapons for the army. His dealings with the air force's equipment were only with Factory 132. As for the navy, he had just dabbled in it. After saying a few words, he was invited over.

Wasn't it just because he made a bold statement about ruining the Sea Dart project? The navy invited him over. Could they be planning to interrogate him? He wasn't an ordinary person. If they dared to bully him, many leaders from the army would come knocking on their door.

The West Third Ring Road was under construction. Outside the east gate of Huanglou was a construction site, with some unfinished bungalows. Since the compound only had one gate, the 212 could only pass through the construction site to reach the east gate. After some entry procedures, Qin Yang followed Wang Gang straight to the third floor of Huanglou.

"Engineer Qin, I can only take you here. Please go in."

Qin Yang nodded and pushed open the door.

This was a conference room, with an oval table in the center. Two groups of people were sitting on either side. One group was in white shirts and blue trousers, and the other group was in suits and ties.

In a corner of the conference room, a projector was on. At this moment, a blue-eyed, high-nosed Englishman was giving a presentation.

"The missile component of our Sea Dart shipborne air defense missile weapon system is a two-stage structure, divided into the front missile body, middle missile body, rear missile body, control device, and booster. As a second-generation air defense missile, it is already very perfect. For example, its engine uses the world's most advanced variable thrust liquid ramjet engine. Although it is also liquid-fueled, it uses kerosene, which can be stored for a long time. Driven by this engine, its maximum speed can reach Mach 3.5, which is world-leading."

Qin Yang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood: These navy leaders were also cunning!

These people must have known about his bold statement. Some of them must have been unhappy and wanted to test Qin Yang.

Originally, Qin Yang thought he would just be explaining to the navy leaders and giving his opinions. Now, Qin Yang understood that the navy wanted him to directly confront the foreigners.

Didn't Qin Yang want to ruin the Sea Dart project? They simply called Qin Yang to the scene to see how Qin Yang would ruin the project!

However, Qin Yang wasn't afraid of anything. In other people's eyes, foreigners were superior, but in his eyes, foreigners were nothing.

At this time, seeing Qin Yang come in, several navy leaders present turned their heads and gestured with their eyes, and then turned their heads back to listen to the presentation.

These guys were all old foxes. If he angered the foreigners, they could clear their relationship, claiming it had nothing to do with the navy, but was done by the General Manager of Fangbei Industrial Company!

"Ramjet engines are outdated."

Now that he knew his role, Qin Yang wouldn't be polite.

When Qin Yang pushed the door open and came in, Philip, the Rolls-Royce expert who was giving the presentation, didn't pay much attention. He thought it was a subordinate coming in to deliver some information. Who would have thought that he would start criticizing as soon as he came in?

"Sir, can you explain how it's outdated?" Philip tried his best to appear generous.

Now, apart from anti-ship missiles, which ground-launched missiles require an additional booster?

"Of course, this isn't the most troublesome thing. Your missile fuel tank is full of kerosene. Can it perform high-g maneuvers during flight? I guess not. By the way, can you continue to introduce its maximum overload?"

When introducing, they picked the good things to say and ignored the bad ones. They would only give detailed data after signing the contract. That's how the British played when they sold the Spey engine. Did they still want to continue fooling people? No way!

"Speak up. As a missile expert, you wouldn't not even know this, would you?"

"The maximum overload is 4G." Philip could only tell the truth.

"What? The overload of this missile is so low?" The navy leaders, who had been sitting steadily, watching the two sides fight, couldn't sit still anymore.

Overload reflects maneuverability. The overload of fighter jets is generally limited to within 9G. The domestic J-7 and J-8 can only fly at 5 or 6G overload. The overload of air-to-air missiles can exceed 20G. Some advanced ones can reach 35G. In later generations, there were a lot of air-to-air missiles with 50G overload.

Now, the maximum overload of this air defense missile was actually 4G. What did this mean? Fighter jets could shake it off!

"The overload performance is not outstanding, but it is a regional air defense missile. Its maximum range is a full seventy kilometers." Philip quickly used another piece of data to make up for it.

Regional air defense was the most urgent need for Easterners!

"The maximum range is good, but what about the firing height? What is the maximum altitude of this missile?"

"Our operating altitude is above 10,000 meters!" Philip said with gritted teeth. What was going on? This was like seeing a ghost today. This guy seemed to know all the parameters of their Sea Dart missile!

"Above 10,000 meters, how high can it go? Can it go up to 20,000 meters? Our domestic J-7 and J-8 fighters can all fly to 20,000 meters," Qin Yang said.
