Providing customers with an immersive experience is really important, and multi-angle shooting is essential.
If the company had its own military satellite, it could take aerial photos from above, which would be incredibly exhilarating.
However, the development of private commercial satellites is also very strong.
It's likely that the F-22 Raptor will be able to be locked in a few years, and it won't be too late for Xia Yu to launch this service then.
Indeed, the toothpaste-squeezing technique never goes out of style.
As the sun set behind the mountains, tourists dispersed in twos and threes, and the museum's hangar doors closed, marking its official closure for the day.
After eating the takeout Xia Yu ordered, the employees, who rarely gather together, all stayed to work overtime.
Some of them were maintaining those old machines, while others were nailing together log cabins for the Stuka parts, preparing to ship them in containers along with the aircraft to Afica.
This project is no longer related to the FHC Museum, and they are unlikely to have any new projects before Paul's death, as restoration and repair take too much time.
Even Bill Gates himself felt that these words sounded pretentious, but coming from Paul, who had no children, they sounded very genuine.
Putting everything else aside, he now owns the sunken ship.
"I prefer the process of exploration and discovery to ownership. The photos in this exhibition were taken two years ago when I discovered the Musashi."
"Only someone with a stubborn personality like Taka could build such a giant ship with such massive cannons. Anyone with a little more flexibility would either save resources and build two more aircraft carriers or build smaller battleships. A ship this big would just be a target."
"It's nothing, I'll have someone send it to your email later."
This time, it was just bad luck; it was Tsuna's turn.
Over the next two days, Xia Yu visited the other party's collection of works by Picasso, Van Gogh, Cézanne, Gauguin, Monet, and even Qi Baishi.
The data released by the research team was edited, only showing the approximate sea area without specific coordinates.
Unlike the previously discovered Hood and Musashi, there was no wreckage salvage or extensive video recording.
This is a hurricane sent when I'm sleepy.
No, it's just that global warming is causing more extreme weather events.
"Yes, they liked to go to extremes from top to bottom back then, but it must be admitted that they brought the battleship to its peak and then ended that era."
However, there was nowhere to put it on land, so it had to stay on the seabed; it was just moved to a different location.
During this period, he also watched two games: one with the Seattle Seahawks and the other with the Portland Trail Blazers.
He was unaware of the situation in China. In recent years, he had been staying in Afica, where various disasters such as high temperatures, droughts, and floods had occurred one after another.
"My dear, the rainy season has arrived in West Flying. The capital of Zhad is being swept by a hurricane, and their air force has suffered heavy losses."
As an ordinary person, Xia Yu simply thought the paintings were quite nice, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why. Perhaps it was the relatively high price that made them appealing.
At that time, the suspected underwater tomb at Xiayu Island will need 2 fighters, 4 aircraft carriers, 8 cruisers, 16 destroyers, and 32 submarines, totaling 62 accompanying ships.
It's hard to imagine that the hundreds of artifacts here are worth billions of dollars, which gives a glimpse into the wealth of the IT industry's newly rich.
"My Octopus is searching for the whereabouts of the Lexington, while another research vessel, the Petrel, is tracking the Shimakaze and the Indianapolis heavy cruisers."
Xia Yu apologized to Paul.
“Mr. Paul, I have to go back. Something big has happened in Zha De.”
He got the coordinates from Paul, which saved him a lot of trouble later.
Unfortunately, Liv's overseas phone call stopped it.
Paul was hospitable, and Xia Yu had been in Seattle for almost a week without realizing it.
No, we lost a Yukikaze back then, and the bald guy took it. Even though there was a car accident when it was dismantled, the Japanese still owe us compensation.
Human aesthetics tend to converge; Westerners also appreciate ink wash painting.
Even though his days are numbered, this boss continues to buy art pieces that only require spending money.
“These artworks will be auctioned off for charity after my death; I will only have owned them temporarily.”
Xia Yu earnestly requested.
"Business is important, but you'll have to transfer flights to get to Zha'de from the west coast. Take my private jet!"
Paul said from behind Xia Yu.
It has to be said that the Japanese were really crazy back then. The old Iowa-class destroyers were only a little over 50,000 tons, but this one had a full-load displacement of over 70,000 tons, which was even a bit less than the Montana-class destroyers that were cut.
Perhaps knowing his days were numbered, Paul increased his investment in shipwreck exploration, focusing more on marking locations and making simple observations of the wreckage.
Or rather, not only the Zha De, but also the Germans stationed at the same air force base suffered heavy losses. It's just that Hans and his men in Zhongfei couldn't get more detailed intelligence, so he, as the boss, had to go there in person.
The air defense was inadequate; both ships were destroyed by hundreds of fighter jets.
For businessmen, business is the most important thing, especially for someone like Xia Yu who hasn't retired yet; he must seize every opportunity.
Paul agreed with Xia Yu's view, but after all, it was a decisive weapon made at the cost of 25 tons of gold, and there might also be wealth plundered from China.
Paul assumed the man with the thick eyebrows and big eyes was a fellow enthusiast and readily agreed, little did he know that the other party's true intention was to take the whole thing away.
The Musashi, the second ship of the Yamato-class, is also the largest battleship in human history in terms of tonnage.
All the VIP seats were free, because Paul is the owner!
Just as he was thinking of letting Xia Yu stay a few more days, the band U2 came to the US for a concert. He was good friends with the lead singer and wanted to develop a rock enthusiast community.
"Oh, Mr. Paul, you've found the whereabouts of these warships. I hope you can give me the specific coordinates. When I retire, I might join a shipwreck research team to explore them in more detail."
Paul said magnanimously.
He always felt bad about enjoying Xia Yu's escort service for free next year, and now the opportunity has come!
Xia Yu thought to himself, "Wow, this Mr. Paul is really something else! He's really hiding his true colors!"
"Don't refuse. Private jets are meant to fly. What's the point of keeping them parked in the hangar all day? I'll have someone arrange a flight route for you right away."
Paul didn't allow Xia Yu to say anything more, and directly summoned his assistant, instructing him to contact the airline under his management.
Before the next day was even over, a Gulfstream G650 was ready for takeoff that very night.
He sold his previous Boeing 757 to that German real estate developer a few years ago, and that developer ended up flying Air Force One this year.
Even if it's just a limited-time trial card, many people can't help but say, "A real man should act like this."
After saying goodbye to Paul, Xia Yu, Johnny, and Rob took a helicopter to the airport, and the three quickly boarded G650.
He had considered buying a Gulfstream, but the super-rich either buy that or the Global Express, and later get a Boeing 747 or an Airbus A380.
However, the Gulfstream G650's cabin is only 2.59 meters long, which is simply not enough to fit an ejection cockpit.
Comparatively speaking, the Airbus A319's 3.7-meter length is more spacious, and the price of a used one isn't very high.
Of course, this flight will be very safe; Xia Yu's enemies won't just shoot down a rich man's private plane.
"Buzz"
Powered by two Rolls-Royce BR725 engines, the Gulfstream G650 soared into the sky, made a turn in mid-air, and sped toward the east coast.
With a full tank of fuel, the G650 has a range of 13,000 kilometers. After crossing the United States, it did not stop to refuel, but instead plunged into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, arriving at Afica several hours later.
The hurricane had long since passed, and Njamena Airport had resumed its aircraft take-off and landing functions. The G650 carrying Xia Yu and her group slowly landed on the runway.
"It really looks pretty bad."
As he stepped off the plane's gangway, Xiahou looked around the airport and muttered to himself.
Apart from the runway being undamaged, the airport looked like it had been bombed. Many makeshift hangars were completely overturned, and the aircraft stored inside were knocked askew by the collapsed beams.
Needless to say, the losses were immense; the already weak air force of Tsuna was almost wiped out this time.
Of the five Mi-24 helicopters, four were lost, except for the one previously allocated to the border troops.
The Mi-17 and Mi-171 also fared poorly, losing a total of six aircraft regardless of their previous performance.
Three of the six second-hand Eurocopter AS550S2 helicopters that were packaged together by Xinjiagang a few years ago have crashed.
The loss of helicopters alone amounted to 13, while the most severe losses among fixed-wing aircraft were the Su-25s.
The itinerary was arranged before going to the United States. After returning to Afica, Xia Yu would first visit Zha De to check on the condition of the old frog feet that needed to be prepared.
If the machine is in poor condition and has reached the end of its service life, he will not accept maintenance orders.
Now it's all over. There's no need to watch anymore after a hurricane. Both the out-of-flight and the planes that weren't out of service were all destroyed. Of the two planes that weren't hit, one of them was never meant to fly.
The remaining one was still usable, but the cockpit had taken on water.
If it's not properly maintained, it might easily lead to the accidental launch of missiles or rockets in the future.
Their only third-generation fighter jet, the MiG-29s they bought from Wukelan (two of which were never delivered), was also destroyed.
Other losses included 4 trainer aircraft and 5 transport aircraft, while 1 C-130H and 2 C-27J, which were of higher value, survived.
In comparison, the people of Germany are even less fortunate.
They lost a small number of aircraft, but the unit price was high!
The fighter jets deployed in Mari were fine, but the logistics support fleet here lost one C-135FR tanker and one CN-235 transport aircraft.
Although the Japanese have gradually replaced these old aircraft with A330MRTT, A400M refueling aircraft, KC-130J, A400M transport aircraft, and C-130J, the losses from natural disasters are still painful, especially since these aircraft could have been retired to second-line use.
As for repairs, they can be repaired, but it's not cost-effective, and transportation is also a problem.
Xia Yu did not gloat over the old clients he had worked with before. As a shrewd businessman, he saw a profit opportunity in the situation.
If you're having a really tough time, just go to Ji Huo Defense; they're willing to take on the job.
Xia Yu, who once only had one Harrier jet, felt that operating aerial refueling aircraft was not worthwhile, but times have changed, and the company and museum now operate more and more aircraft.
The MiG-29 is a frontline fighter jet and is known for its short range. If a big spender wants to book the whole night, no, to charter the plane, they can't just land and refuel before taking off again!
Having your own refueling machine allows customers to easily refuel and have a better experience.
For pilots, it would be good to have another subject to train in, which would certainly be appreciated by their hometown, thus giving them a guarantee for maintenance.
Operating this C-135FR, the two Red Fighting Falcons that will soon be modified will also have a longer combat range, and the C-160 will be able to fly a longer distance when fully loaded.
That said, it seems the Chinook can also be refueled in mid-air.
In short, Xia Yu also benefited, turning what was a bad thing into a win-win-win situation.
The CN-235 transport plane's payload and range are a bit low, but let's get it fixed while we're at it. Jihuo Defense doesn't need it, but there are many other countries that need it!
Combat operations are only part of the business of private military contractors; selling military equipment is also an important source of profit.
However, Xia Yu was busy with business development and the client he had recently been working with was not suitable for this type of transaction, so he neglected to develop this part of the market.
However, countries with relatively stable political situations, such as Niri-Liya and Zha-De, are not as sensitive as Zhongfei and Libya, so Xia Yu can ship goods to them.
Thinking this, he quickly walked toward the crowd waving at him from a distance.
Air Force Major General Fatimé and Lieutenant Colonel Gabriel were both in a bad mood, as a hurricane had destroyed their leisurely lives.
Both sides sharing the airport suffered heavy losses. Fatimé, who had no chance of promotion, was only annoyed that his air force assets had almost been wiped out, and he was almost a general with nothing left.
The army still has a lot of resources; losing two planes is manageable, but Gabriel's appointment as a colonel at the end of the year is now off the table.
I ate sand in Afica for a whole year, and then you send a hurricane and ruin it all.
However, they still had to receive the guest, especially since this was their former business partner.
"Hello, Mr. Sherlock, I've heard of the renowned reputation of Jihuo Defense since I was in Zha De. Not long ago, you helped us repair a Mi-24V and a Mi-17. We are truly grateful."
Fatima first took a step closer and grasped Xia Yu's hands.
"You must be Major General Fatimé. You flatter me. It was mainly Colonel Boukaal who acted as a go-between. I was just doing my job for money."
Xia Yu looked at the other person's military rank and said modestly.
Many small countries do not have marshals or generals, especially the Zha De Air Force, which is so small that the highest rank is major general, so even if you don't recognize them, you know who they are.
"Natural disasters are terrible. After the president learned about this, he allocated a special fund in the hope that all the damaged aircraft that could be repaired would be repaired as much as possible. If they cannot be repaired, then we will discuss new aircraft purchase plans. And this is Lieutenant Colonel Gabriel of the Armed Forces. He is in charge of the logistics fleet stationed in Njamena."
After explaining some of the details, Fatima introduced Gabriel to Xia Yu.
"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel, what are your plans regarding the handling of the two lost aircraft?"
Xia Yu then asked Gabriel.
"There has been no response from the domestic authorities yet, but the Ministry of National Defense personnel just boarded a plane today. They are much slower than you, Mr. Sherlock, so it's probably just a formality."
