At noon on March 3, 2002 in the previous life, this big ship was towed to Bohai Port.
I remember that at that time, the streets of Bohai City were almost deserted, and there was a constant stream of military fans from other places coming to Bohai to see the aircraft carrier.
For the next three years, the ship was left here alone during the construction demonstration and technical research phase.
During this period, the aircraft carrier seemed to be left unattended, and the audience could even walk dozens of meters away from the ship to take photos with it.
It wasn't until August 2005, just as the ship was fading from people's memory, that it was painted the standard navy gray.
From that day on, no one believed that it was an abandoned ship.
In the years that followed, the ship frequently appeared on the Internet and in the news in ever-changing appearances, but each was only a fleeting glimpse.
Its shape is constantly changing, especially the island, a large piece of which has been cut off and some messy things have also been demolished.
On August 10, 2011, the ship began sea trials and was commissioned in September 2012.
This took a little over ten years.
If this ship can reach Bohai Sea in March next year in this life, it will arrive in China five years earlier than in the previous life.
"According to the plan, by 2007, the ship will have completed sea trials and will be commissioned."
Everyone here knew why China bought this ship, so Wan Feng didn't hide it and said anything insincere.
The purpose of buying it is to try to transform it into your own warship.
Only an idiot would believe it was used as a gambling boat.
Although these soldiers are all from the navy, they have little idea when they can get an aircraft carrier that is almost an empty shell back and sail on the sea.
I've never had it before and never played with it.
"Ah! It's another ten years! It's over, I won't be able to catch up, I will be retired by then." Someone said with regret.
"Hahahaha! Lao Xiao! You have nothing to worry about this time. I can still catch up." The two old soldiers began to joke on the spot.
"But I can still see it, which is not bad."
"Let's see if it helps. I'll go up there and take a stroll when the time comes."
"As if I couldn't go up there."
Two people, one sentence each.
"You two old guys stop arguing, we haven't heard enough!" Someone got angry and started scolding the two veterans who were oblivious to the people around them.
"Tsk! There's no point in listening. You won't be able to escape even when I retire."
"Xiao Wan! Ignore those two disrespectful old guys and continue talking."
"Xiong Guo is an idiot. Who is he saying is disrespectful to the elderly?" The veteran surnamed Xiao began to fight back.
The person who said they were disrespectful to the elderly was called Xiong Guozhi, and for some reason someone added the word "zang" after the word "zhi".
The one being called a retard from Bear Country wasn't shy either: "Who are you calling a retard? If you don't agree, come on! Come out and fall!"
"Just fall! As if I'm afraid of you."
Wan Feng was speechless. Two people in their sixties wrestling, is this in line with the development of the trend?
The riot lasted only a minute before it was suppressed by a larger cadre.
"You've rebelled, but I still can't deal with you, Xiao Wan! Go on." A bigger boss stood up.
"After we complete this aircraft carrier, we will have mastered the technology for building ski-jump aircraft carriers. Around 2009, we will begin construction on an aircraft carrier that truly belongs to us."
"Ah! Build another one? How much will that cost?" Some people have already put themselves in the role and started to feel sorry for the money.
"You guy, Xiao Wan, isn't this just a fantasy? Why did you take it seriously?"
The general, who had been so immersed in the role, smiled a little embarrassedly.
"After these two aircraft carriers are built, ski-jump aircraft carriers are no longer our goal. We should start building the second generation of aircraft carriers, which are large flat-bed aircraft carriers like the ones used by the United States."
When the big tablet was mentioned, the soldiers became excited.
No matter what, the ski-jump aircraft carrier cannot compare with the large flatbed in terms of take-off and landing speed of carrier-based aircraft.
"Xiao Wan! Building a large flat-bed aircraft carrier requires steam catapult technology. Without this technology, everything is zero." Someone reminded.
"That's not a problem. It's still at least fifteen years before we need catapult technology. By then, let alone steam bombs, maybe even electromagnetic catapults will be developed."
This is a fact. China successfully developed a steam catapult around 2013. However, plans did not change quickly enough, and a great man named Yang accidentally developed an electromagnetic catapult.
The navy was completely dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.
Of course, this is a matter for the future, there is no need to worry about it now.
"Once the construction of conventional large flat-panel ships is completed, we will build nuclear-powered large flat-panel ships of the 100,000-ton class." Wan Feng suddenly raised his voice by one decibel and announced loudly.
He hadn't seen this in his previous life, let alone the nuclear-powered ones. In 2018, the conventional-powered large flat-panel ones were still in a half-hidden state.
But Wan Feng firmly believed that it would happen. If he didn't see it in his previous life, he must see it in this life. He got excited just thinking about it, and his voice became a little higher unconsciously.
With a crash, someone fell to the ground.
"Lao Li! Are you drunk or dizzy? Why are you lying on the ground?"
The man called Lao Li sat up again in embarrassment. He didn't answer the teasing but muttered to himself, "You're too bold to think about it. I didn't even dare to think about it."
"So our ideas are outdated, really outdated." Zhu Guoxiong, who had been silent, interjected.
He was no longer shocked by Wan Feng's wild words.
"I thought we could just have a ski-jump aircraft carrier, but this guy is thinking of a nuclear-powered flattop."
"Isn't this just imagination, Lao Li? Another person who takes his own tricks seriously."
The man called Lao Li shook his head: "You said Xiao Wan was imagining things? Why don't I think so? I think what he said is true. Forget it, I can't explain it to you bunch of cowards."
Old Li knocked down a large area of them without saying a word.
"Oh my! You, Old Li, actually said we were all cowards! Brother, beat him up!"
There was chaos again.
These soldiers are sometimes quite naughty.
"Xiao Wan! It's not enough to have an aircraft carrier without escort. Our current Jiangwei Brigade escorts are not enough. Can we use modern ones?" A general first thought of the issue of the escort fleet.
modern?
If Wan Feng remembers correctly, in 2015 both 167 and 168 were driven to Shenzhen for renovation because they were too backward.
"Of course we can't use ships like the Jiangwei and Luhu. Even our recently commissioned Harbin ships won't work."
The Harbin ship is the first ship of the 052 series.
Everyone present was dumbfounded. The Harbin ship was known as China's number one ship, and its second ship would not be commissioned until May this year. How could it fail right after being launched?
