C342 Dong Dongchen Airlines(part I)

Since the end of World War II, the international situation has been developing for decades... It has entered a very sensitive era, in such a big environment... The nerves of every country are very sensitive, and what is rare is that... The entire world has been developing peacefully for decades in such a highly sensitive state. Of course, the local wars and friction were far from affecting the structure and situation of the world.

Under such circumstances, if one side was able to develop rapidly in a short period of time... It would have a huge impact on the international situation. In this view, Nie Minhui's view was very objective. First of all, she did not support Zhang Yunfeng putting too much experience into national defense technology. Secondly, she also did not agree with Zhang Yunfeng continuing to make high-end technology that could change the heavens and the earth to strengthen national defense. It was not a good thing from the bottom of it all.

Nie Minhui could not help asking Zhang Yunfeng, "Yunfeng, if America is not the world's number one economy, then what kind of change will his international status change?"

Zhang Yunfeng frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then said, "Their national defense technology is too powerful. Even if they slide down from the world's number one economy, it should not hinder their superpower's top position."

"No." Nie Minhui said lightly, saying, "National defense technology is only one aspect. No matter how strong the American national defense technology is, it is still not enough. The current era is already stable. If America was not the world's number one economy, it would be very difficult for him to start a real invasion war. Otherwise, what he would have to face might be the hostility and rejection of the entire world. Secondly, after he lost his powerful economic ability, what could he use to guarantee their powerful national defense technology? When their domestic economy continues to decline, when the national standard of living continues to decline, when the nationwide unemployment rate continues to rise, what can they use to maintain their position as a super powerful country? On this point, the Northern Alligator Mao Country was the best example. No one, the real reason for the collapse of an alliance is always the economy."

Zhang Yunfeng nodded thoughtfully and said, "I understand what you mean. The economic foundation is the foundation for establishing a country."

Nie Minhui nodded with slight appreciation and smiled. "Continuing to develop national defense technology is nothing more than going all out. Even the mighty aircraft carriers cannot feed the people. And he also needs a large amount of money to build and maintain himself. Right now, the most important thing for you is... You will be able to achieve greater results in the economic field, and not create weapons and equipment that are as hot as a hot potato. "

As she spoke, Nie Minhui said," Solo high-temperature alloy is a hot potato. You have two choices now. Or, temporarily suppress him and keep him in your stomach. Or, you can only hand it over to the government to operate. Once you use this material in your civil aviation field, external exports are unavoidable, Western countries will always pay attention to this point. If even Dong Chen used the most high-end material, they would immediately think of it. This kind of thing. The materials were also applied to our national defense technology. When that time comes... They will see you as a threat or an opportunity... If the high-temperature monocrystal alloy is able to create a huge impact on the world, then... You are standing at the tip of the storm. "

Zhang Yunfeng could not say anything. Nie Minhui continued to ask, "This kind of material is about what you need to do. What is the core of it? If we were in this field, we would be much weaker than the Western countries. Then, if you catch up to them, you will only give them pressure... And not let them have any ideas about you, if you surpass them by too much... I'm afraid that the situation isn't something you can control."

Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "Although this material is very core, as long as it reaches a certain level... Basically, it will satisfy the requirements. The most important advantage of Dong Chen building an aircraft engine is... On one hand, it was the combination of a variety of new materials. On the other hand, it was the top design concept and manufacturing technology. In the field of single-crystal high-temperature alloys alone, it only needed to reach the international level. It won't even have much of an impact."

Nie Minhui smiled and said, "That's easy. Don't take out too high-end technology. It is enough to be on the same level as Western countries."

Zhang Yunfeng nodded and agreed. He said, "I know what to do. Try not to show off your skills in this key material."

Nie Minhui agreed and said, "In the future, you must also ensure that this kind of military technology is less important than civil technology. Focus on your own things. To develop your own economy, in the current form of Dong Chen. It is very likely to become the most influential private economy in the world. "

The turbine fan engine had a total of three rough sections, one. It is the medium-thrust engine that Zhang Yunfeng prepared to produce first. It is an economical civil engine with a lower fuel consumption. The other was the large thrust engine. These types of engines were mostly used on large passenger planes, cargo planes, and military transport planes. The military and civilian fields were half and half the meaning. The last type... It was a high-powered engine, which was completely meaningless to civilians. However, it was extremely important for military purposes. It was the core of the combat aircraft's power.

Zhang Yunfeng had originally planned to develop the third engine after the two types of engines could be produced and equipped with a certain market foundation. But now, it seemed that it was not very meaningful. If he provided too many high-end military technology, it would definitely lead to the entire structure of the national defense field. Just like the DCC 1800A diesel engine, its appearance... It would increase the funding for the defense of armored vehicles by at least 10 billion, not just the manufacturing cost and the cost of changing equipment. This included the additional training, drill fees, and training fees for professional maintenance personnel in order for the army to adapt to the new performance of armored vehicles. It also included the waste of all the engines and related spare parts that had been eliminated.

The economy of a country determined the capital that the country should invest in the field of national defense. These two needed to reach a balance. Otherwise... It would only increase the burden on society and the country. If Zhang Yunfeng developed a perfect military aviation engine... Even if he didn't earn a single cent from the country, with the cost of more than ten million RMB per unit, and all the other costs, it would be a huge expenditure. Presumably, after all the equipment was changed, he would need at least tens of billions of dollars to support it.

After figuring this out, Zhang Yunfeng decided to first suppress the national defense technology and focus on developing the economy. He would have to wait until the economic development reached a sufficient foundation before considering it.

Even though Zhang Yunfeng reduced the technology content of the single-crystal high-temperature alloy, allowing it to only be consistent with western countries, the relevant companies under the direct command of the national defense department immediately began testing and experimenting with the relevant technology provided by Zhang Yunfeng. They also promised that once the material trial was successful and had the ability to mass produce, he would do his best to protect Dong Chen's needs.

This medium enterprise already had the ability to produce high-temperature single-crystal alloys, but their technology had always been lagging behind. With the hardware facilities and relevant experience, when they got the high-end technology, very soon, they would be able to turn this technology into a real product.

In just a week, the high-temperature single-crystal alloy technology provided by Zhang Yunfeng had the ability to mass produce, and it was immediately put into production.

At the same time, Dong Chen officially announced to the public that Dong Chen Aerospace Engineering Company was officially established. In short, it was called the Dongchen Aerospace Engineering. This company was the subsidiary of the Dongchen Group. The direction of business development was to develop and manufacture civil aviation and aerospace equipment. It was the same as Boeing, Airbus, and other companies.

This news also caused the whole world to speculate about Dong Chen Aerospace Engineering. From the name of this company, it was not difficult to see Dong Chen's intentions. It was most likely related to the manufacturing of aircraft in the aerospace industry. But... The whole world knew that Dong Chen only had one aircraft engine production line. Other than that, he even had a total assembly line that could assemble a Boeing 737. Moreover, the manufacturing of an aircraft often required hundreds of supplier parts. However, all the relevant companies in the world all expressed that... Dong Chen had never had any contact with them. So... So, there was no need to mention any cooperation.

Airlines, Boeing, Puhui, Universal Electricity and Rolls-Royce all congratulated Dong Chen for entering the aviation industry. And among them, the real pressure was still the three engine Manufacturing Enterprise.

Airlines and Boeing were not worried about Dong Chen entering the aviation field at all. They guessed from the current situation. Dong Chen now had the hardware to produce the aviation engine. Perhaps. The usually shocking Dong Chen would develop a better aviation engine. But... Dong Chen would not be able to produce an entire aircraft in a short period of time. Therefore... Dong Chen did not have any conflicts with their business. On the contrary, if Dong Chen really developed a better aviation engine, it would be a good thing for them. After all, all the planes they produced used engines produced by other companies.

The Merika CNN host ridiculed Dong Chen on the news program, thinking that he was very happy. After creating an excellent car engine, they were ready to set foot in the world's most sophisticated and high-end engine manufacturing field. If that was the case, then the Volkswagen, Toyota, and other companies would have created their own aircraft engine long ago. However, at this moment, Dong Chen announced a shocking piece of news to the public.

The Dongchen Group had already been bought from China Southern Airlines at a high price for two Civil aviation aircraft that were still in use. One Boeing 737300 and one Airbus A320200. These two planes. Although they were not the most advanced of the two companies, they were the main models of the two companies. Just in China, there were close to a thousand of them. As for the two planes Dong Chen bought, they had been in operation for about five years. What was surprising was that Dong Chen actually bought them at the price of a brand new plane.

Dong Chen Aerospace Engineering Company, which had not even built a single wheel, had yet to truly begin developing in this industry. They had become a spendthrift, which was quite funny in the eyes of the whole world. However, Zhang Yunfeng understood what he needed. Everything was ready now. In a month at most, he would be able to make Dong Chen's aviation engine go offline. Once he disengaged, he would immediately conduct various ground tests. After the test was completed, he would need to complete the loading test. Even a test flight, having his own plane was the most suitable. Moreover, Dong Chen's first aviation engine was mainly used for 737 and A320, these two medium-short, narrow, and dry line passenger planes.

The South China Airlines was quite excited about Dong Chen's generous offer, and it did not hesitate to ask for the two planes requested by Dong Chen. It took the South China Airlines out of the operation echelon and connected it to Dong Chen. When they were about to hand over the planes, they found out about Dong Chen's request. Each of these two planes required a crew member who could fly for more than 4000 hours. The captain also needed to meet the standards of the test crew of the Civil aviation aircraft. They needed to fly the plane to the commercial flight test airport located in the outskirts of ZhongHai.

As for the crew members of the two planes, the labor contract would be transferred from the South China Airlines to Dong Chen's name. For this, Dong Chen would pay ten million dollars in compensation for the South China Airlines. Furthermore, he promised that the average monthly salary of the crew members would be higher than 30 thousand USD, and every flight hour. He would get at least a thousand USD in compensation.

The civil aviation system was different from the military aircraft system. Each major aviation company had their own best pilot. Every time they ordered a new plane from Boeing or Airlines, the pilot had to first receive the system training of the production company. After the aircraft was delivered, the testers were the first to carry out the test flight. They are all very high-end civil aviation pilots, but there are not many opportunities for them to be the pilot. In fact, the planes they tested were all designed and mass-produced planes. This was different from the military. The test pilots of the military often flew new planes that had never been on the sky before. And the civil aviation field work was done by the test pilots of Boeing and Aircraft. Therefore, the salary of the test pilots was not very high, and most of the time, they were all in charge of operating the flight.

The average monthly salary was more than 30,000 USD, and the monthly salary of the pilot was more than 45,000 USD. The most important thing was that this was just a basic salary. Every time they were worth the money, they would get a subsidy of 1,000 USD from Dong Chen in an hour. If they were to fly normally, a flight crew would have to fly for more than five hours a day. In this way, Dong Chen was the most generous employer in the world.0

The South China Airlines had earned a lot of discounts from the two planes, and the two groups were transferred to Dong Chen. It was also the so-called compensation of ten million USD for them, which was also the transfer fee for the pilot. This also made them a small profit. So... The South China Airlines was very satisfied with the entire transaction, and it was very straightforward to send out two units that met the requirements. They took off from Guangzhou and flew straight to the testing airport in the outskirts of Zhonghai.

After the plane arrived at the trial airport, it was immediately arranged to stay at a five-star hotel in Zhonghai. The staff member related to Dong Chen replied that there was no flying mission for the time being. All the crew members were on vacation in Zhonghai, which meant... Dong Chen was in charge of food, accommodation, and all expenses, but no one was allowed to leave ZhongHai without permission. So that Dong Chen could summon them at any time.

While the crew was on vacation in the Star hotel in the Zhonghai, Dong Chen's first aircraft engine had already gone offline and was undergoing ground testing.

The so-called ground test was to fix the engine in the laboratory. To conduct a comprehensive test on the hard data of the engine, this engine was defined as DC11 by Dong Chen. It was also the first model of the DC1 series. The thrust of this engine was not eye-catching. The highest was only 8000 kilograms of thrust. However, for most of the models in the 737 and A320 series, it was more than enough.

Although the waiter's manufacturing wouldn't have any flaws, in other words, the design data of the things the waiter created didn't need to be tested. Even if it was a test, the result would be infinitely close to the design data. However, the civil aviation industry had always been the most demanding industry. No test could be slacked off.

The design indicator of the maximum thrust of 8000 kg has been perfectly proven, the weight of the user compared to the same engine in the market... It was reduced by 26%, and the fuel consumption of the experiment was also reduced by 37.5%. The noise was reduced by about 30 decibels, regardless of the environment around the airport. It was also a huge improvement for the environment inside the cabin.

The DC11 had been conducting a 16-day closed test in the laboratory, and the results were enough to make everyone ecstatic. Shang Fei's top engineers were only second-rate in the world. But now, they turned their heads and saw the birth of the world's best aviation engine under Dong Chen's banner. This huge change made everyone excited.

Logically speaking, it would take at least a thousand hours for the ground test. The engine can be hung on the plane for further ground testing, however, Zhang Yunfeng clearly did not want to wait in the laboratory for another fifty to sixty days. He ordered people to gather two groups of crew members. The specialized vehicle brought all these people to the engine laboratory of Dongchen Aerospace Engineering Company and personally led them there. He saw all the performance of the DC11.

Only now did these crew members truly understand the purpose of Dong Chen hiring them with a high salary. Dong Chen did not want to form his own small aircraft team, but to test out this shocking super engine!

A captain who had flown 737 for more than 20 years said, "It's hard to imagine, really hard to imagine! Our national company can actually produce such an excellent engine. I've dealt with 737 for half my life, I dare say... This engine is the most suitable engine for 737! The thrust is sufficient, the noise is lower, and the weight is lighter. Just from the fuel consumption of the thrust, it could reach 37.5%. If we calculate the weight of the two engines, I think... The actual fuel consumption can reach about 40%, which not only greatly reduces the transportation cost... In the past, 737's conservative maximum fuel transportation was only about 4000 kilometers. Now, it can be guaranteed that it's at least 5,500 kilometers."
