"Commander Tang, if you put it that way, am I forced to refuse?"
Su Lin developed the Dongfeng-21 series missiles to raise funds for aircraft carrier development.
No need for Commander Tang's flattery; as China's leading military industrial enterprise, it's natural that the navy cannot be forgotten.
But we can't let Commander Tang and Commander Yuan get this advantage for nothing.
Human interactions, in essence, are exchanges of interests.
If you shamelessly help others, they will look down on you.
"That's right. Which company in China today would dare to confidently claim that it has developed the first generation of aircraft carriers?"
"Isn't it just your Lanxiang Military Industry, Principal Su's?"
"Principal Su, this aircraft carrier project has already been approved, as long as Lanxiang Military Industry is willing to take it on."
Research and development can begin directly without any approval procedures.
In terms of time, it can save a lot of costs.
To become the world's strongest military industrial enterprise, in addition to air force, army, and navy weapons, this is the final piece of the puzzle for Lanxiang Military Industry.
"Okay! Lanxiang Military Industry's requirements remain the same: First, it needs independent research and development rights for all its research and development units and companies."
Captains must cooperate unconditionally.
Second, it possesses global sales rights.
Third, pricing power!
Are you two alright?
Independent R&D rights are fine, but global sales are a bit of a surprise to Commander Yuan.
If an aircraft carrier is sold to a competitor, wouldn't that become a hidden danger?
"Principal Su, could our Eastern Military Region be included in the evaluation process for these sales rights?"
This is also to safeguard China's military strength.
Commander Tang patted Commander Yuan on the shoulder.
"Commander Yuan, what are you thinking? The products exported by our Lanxiang Military Industry are all downgraded versions."
Once the aircraft carrier is developed, it will guarantee that your Eastern Military Region's navy will enter the world's top tier.
You don't need to worry about that.
"That's fine! Since everyone agrees, I'll gather all the R&D leaders tomorrow."
Let's have a meeting to discuss things like R&D facilities, staffing, and the R&D schedule.
Everything is planned out. What do you think, Principal Su?
"Let's do it here. Isn't our Eastern Military Region the strongest in the navy? We can conduct research and development nearby, which will also make it easier to carry out routine training in the future!"
"Alright! Principal Su, I'll go inform them now. Wait for my news tomorrow!"
Knowing that the first aircraft carrier was to be used by their own military region,
Commander Yuan was full of energy; he didn't even have time to wipe the tea leaves from the corners of his mouth.
He got up and went back to his office, then called his secretary in.
"Commander Yuan, is there any urgent mission?"
"Fan Linmei, Shipyard Director of Shipyard 3028"
Southeast Electronics Research Institute, Dean Wu Kexin
Lieutenant General Wu Shangguo of the Pacific Fleet of our Eastern Military Region,
Also, the heads of all R&D departments, please gather in the conference room of the base command center at 9:00 AM tomorrow.
Send the message down to everyone.
The secretary glanced at the personnel list that Commander Yuan had placed on the table.
Almost all the senior officers of the Eastern Naval Command, as well as the heads of major research institutes, were on the list.
"Commander Yuan, Lieutenant General Wu Shangguo is currently conducting exercises in the Pacific Ocean."
Will this affect the regular exercise plan?
"Why bother with the drills? Inform him that the next exercise will be a carrier strike group exercise."
Everyone must be present tomorrow; all projects and plans must give way.
Do you understand?
"Roger that, sir!!!!!"
After having dinner at the Eastern Military District base, Su Lin and Commander Tang returned to the guesthouse to rest.
Commander Tang was alone in his room with nothing to do.
He kept thinking, what if Su Lin could develop the first generation of aircraft carriers?
Then our Chinese army is finally about to reach its full potential.
My heart was itching with excitement.
"Knock knock knock~~~~~~"
Arriving at Su Lin's room, I knocked on the door.
"Please come in!"
When I came in, I saw Su Lin lying on the sofa, watching TV.
"Principal Su, you can't sleep either, right? I can't sleep either!!!"
Su Lin knew at a glance that Commander Tang had come to gather information again.
There was really nothing I could do about him, so I could only get up and give Commander Tang my seat.
"It's only a little past 8 o'clock, even pigs don't go to sleep that early."
"Principal Su, you also like watching football!"
The World Cup qualifiers are being played on TV.
China vs. Iran
Before the first half was even over, Hebei China Fortune was already leading Iran 2-0.
As someone who had transmigrated from another world, Su Lin already knew the outcome.
However, the 1998 World Cup was at least much more exciting than the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
They can still score a few more goals.
By 2023, the World Cup qualifiers were essentially a celebration for Chinese mathematicians.
Let alone kicking Iran,
First two rounds: A crushing defeat!
The chances of success in the last three rounds are slim.
In the sixth round, they barely managed to keep their hopes of qualifying alive.
In the seventh round, there is still a theoretical possibility of qualifying.
In conclusion, we will continue to work hard in the next tournament and strive to qualify for the World Cup.
Only countries like Guam and Lebanon can compete with it.
"The Chinese team is doing well, leading 2-0. It looks like our arms trade in the Middle East is going to improve."
Such a success has greatly inspired the young men of the national football team!
Su Lin lay down on the sofa.
Su Lin was getting ready to go to bed, because he clearly remembered how bloody the later matches were!
"Principal Su, are you going to sleep already? Aren't we going to celebrate this 2-0 victory?"
"Stop celebrating! They were overtaken 4-2 in the end. The Chinese national football team is still the same old Chinese national football team!"
On television, the Chinese team still maintained the initiative.
"4-2? I'll eat the TV if it's 4-2! The first half is over, how can they concede four goals in the second half?"
........
Time flies like an arrow, and life is like a shuttle.
Congratulations to Iran for their incredible comeback, winning 4-2!
The Chinese national football team players showed great sportsmanship and skill today.
Unfortunately, their stamina dropped too quickly in the second half, giving the opponent many opportunities!
"However, the Chinese national football team still has a chance to qualify. Hopefully, they will learn from this experience."
Don't let this loss affect you; play well in the next match!
The familiar commentary segment came through the television.
"Damn it, these national football team criminals should be dragged back and shot!"
Four goals conceded in one half?!
Commander Tang was so angry he almost threw the remote control at the TV.
"Principal Su, how did you know it would end 4-2???"
Commander Tang looked at Su Lin with a bewildered expression.
"If you eat the TV, I'll tell you!!!"
"Is that just a wild guess? We can't count on the national football team anymore; now we're just waiting for our aircraft carrier to finally show off."
Principal Su, could you tell me first how the aircraft carrier project is progressing?
I'm so itchy to sleep!
