Yan Guixiang couldn't help but sigh:
"Mr. Lin, you've chosen a great location. There's an airport and a port, and more importantly, there are no international flights nearby. Anchinalala has absolutely no strategic significance. It won't attract the attention of European and American countries."
"Add to that the fragmented Madagascar warlords, each acting independently, and this place could become your own independent kingdom. Using Antinalara as your transit base is definitely a brilliant move."
Apparently, the domestic military has already studied the small town of Anzinalala.
As for European and American countries, they will only be interested if you have oil and diamonds. If not, they will not be willing to come even if you beg them.
Lin Sanqi didn't care:
"Hey, there's nothing I can do. In order to contract the port and airport, I donate more than 200 million US dollars to the local warlords every year, and I also sponsor the warlords' children to study abroad.
Besides, look over there, I also support an armed force of 500 people. The cost of food, clothing, housing, and weapons is quite a lot of money every year. But without our own security, we would have become fat meat in the eyes of others long ago.
In order to protect the ports and airports, Lin Sanqi recruited a local black security team in Madagascar.
They trained them with domestic veterans and equipped them with Israeli weapons.
Don’t underestimate the small number of people. In this barbaric continent, the combat effectiveness of these 500 people is very strong. Don’t forget who trained them, so they are more than capable of protecting themselves.
But since they are not of the same race, Lin Sanqi is somewhat worried.
Lin Sanqi also recruited an additional 120 veterans. These people usually served as "dock workers", but at critical moments they formed a company with extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Lin Sanqi was right about one thing. It really costs a lot to support such a group of people in a year.
Yan Guixiang nodded, his eyes deep.
What he was actually thinking was that since Lingnan Hall had already established a firm foothold in Africa and owned an independent territory, it had a deep-water port, an airport, and armed forces.
So is it possible for China to cooperate with Lin Sanqi and have certain transactions that cannot be made public transit through Madagascar?
I have to say that Yan Guixiang is very discerning.
But how could Lin Sanqi be loaned to the government for official use?
By then, Anqinalala Port will be named She instead of Lin, and will be completely out of the control of Lingnan Hall.
Moreover, his main purpose of wanting this port and airport is to use it for time travel. This matter cannot be seen in public, so how could it be carried out under the official nose?
At this time, two pilots got off the Xinzhou plane, walked up to Yan Guixiang and Lin Sanqi and stood at attention.
Lin Sanqi stood up straight as usual and saluted.
Yan Guixiang and the two pilots were a little surprised:
"Hey, Mr. Lin, have you ever been in the military? That salute is very professional."
Lin Sanqi thought to himself, I was a major in another era.
"No, no, I've loved the army since I was a kid. I've always dreamed of being a soldier, but in the end, my dream didn't come true and I had to go home and inherit a fortune worth tens of billions. Haha, Mr. Yan, these two pilots..."
Yan Guixiang didn't think much about it. Lin Sanqi saluted with the standard Chinese military salute. If it was a British or American military salute, he would definitely be alarmed.
"Director Lin, let me introduce you to these two pilots, Zhou Songbai and Zhang Xueliang. They are both among the best pilots in our Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group and will be responsible for your flight training this time."
Lin Sanqi planned to take this opportunity to learn how to fly airplanes, including the Xian MA aircraft and the J-7 fighter jet.
As for airplanes, no matter what model, whether civilian or military, the technology is the same.
This is like many pilots who, after retiring, go directly to civil aviation companies to work as pilots and earn high salaries.
The most famous is Shandong Airlines.
When encountering extremely bad weather, pilots of other airlines are "forbidden to take off", but pilots of Shandong Airlines are told to "take off directly".
Someone said he took a Shandong Airlines flight and landed an hour early despite the flight being delayed. When he got home, he found his wife fighting with someone in the bedroom...
Why are Shandong Airlines pilots so awesome? That’s because most of these pilots are retired from the Air Force, and they fly passenger planes like fighter jets.
Lin Sanqi learned to fly airplanes for many reasons.
One is that it's fun. As a man, who doesn't like cars? Let alone flying a plane.
The second reason is also for after-sales service. He brought so many planes to the 1960s in another time and space. He must teach others how to fly planes, right?
The most crucial point was that he had to learn how to fly an airplane because he needed to fly the plane and land in the 1960s, otherwise the plane would not be able to be transported into the country at all.
Lin Sanqi quickly stepped forward, shook hands with the two pilots, and asked politely:
"Boss Yan, how did you provide subsidies for these two pilots on their business trip to Africa?"
Yan Guixiang laughed and said, "We are all government employees. Where do the subsidies come from? We will follow orders in all our actions."
Lin Sanqi waved his hand:
"That won't do. There's always a reward for our efforts. We even have to pay tuition to learn to drive at a driving school. So, I'll give the two pilots a subsidy of 1 million RMB each, out of my own pocket."
"But Mr. Yan, this money is my personal apprenticeship fee, so you can't hand it over when you get back. I won't make it difficult for you. Please give me one of your family's bank account numbers, and I'll arrange for the finance department to transfer the money immediately."
When the two pilots heard this, they both gasped and looked at Yan Guixiang excitedly.
Who doesn't love money? 1 million is definitely a huge sum of money for people in the army.
Yan Guixiang was a little embarrassed because soldiers are also state employees and in principle cannot accept private money. This is a disciplinary issue.
But Lin Sanqi's case is special. The relevant domestic departments have conducted strict background checks and political reviews on him, and he is trustworthy.
So we still have to save face for such a big boss.
In principle, it is not allowed to do this or that in domestic affairs, unless there are special circumstances.
For example, in principle, the admission requirements for the "4+4" pilot class of Peking Union Medical College require undergraduate graduates from the top 50 in the QS World University Rankings or the Times World University Rankings, and are limited to certain majors.
If it is a domestic school, in principle it must be from one of the 37 985 universities.
Yan Guixiang thought for a moment and replied:
"Zhou Songbai, Zhang Xueliang, after you two write a report today about what happened, you can hand over your family's personal bank account to Director Lin. When you return, I will report it to the group to prove that this money is your legal income."
The two pilots were ecstatic after hearing this, but of course their pilot qualities made them appear calm on the surface:
"Yes, we'll write about what happened right away. Also, thank you, Director Lin. We will definitely teach you how to fly a plane."
Lin Sanqi was also happy. Money makes the world go round. He paid the tuition, so the other party should teach him carefully, right?
"By the way, Mr. Yan, how long will it take me to be able to fly a plane on my own?"
Yan Guixiang replied: "For a crash course like yours, you don't need to master too much theoretical knowledge. Generally, 40 hours of flight training is enough."
Lin Sanqi was delighted when he heard this. He thought that if he practiced for 8 hours a day, he would be able to fly a plane by himself in a week.
"So if I want to fly a J-7 fighter jet, how many hours of training do I need?"
At this time, pilot Zhou Songbai explained:
"Based on 40 hours of flight training, adding another 30 hours, or 70 hours, is enough to fly the J-7. But that only applies to normal takeoffs and landings, and normal flights. It's still a long way to go to become a qualified pilot."
Lin Sanqi was still calculating how many days it would take to complete the 70 hours, and Yan Guixiang was already encouraging him:
"There was a flight accident abroad before where the pilot suddenly lost consciousness while flying the plane. The passenger next to him had no flying experience. Finally, under the guidance of the ground staff, the plane was successfully forced to land.
This isn't the first or second time such incidents have occurred. These flight incidents show that flying a plane isn't as difficult as one might imagine. The key is to maintain a strong mental state, stay calm, and follow the manual. "There will definitely be no problems."
When Lin Sanqi heard this, his confidence immediately returned. (End of this chapter)
