Chapter 244 Prototype First Flight ([-])

Lin Feng also did not expect that Xie Kang would reveal these things to himself in a plenary meeting.

This is undoubtedly very good news for Leihuo Technology Industry Group and himself. Lin Feng said happily, "Director Zhao, there is really such a thing."

Xie Kangquan smiled and said, "I've only heard about it, and I can't count it. Just listen to it."

Of course this is not the case.

He is a director in charge of ordering. He is a powerful person, and the things he comes into contact with are different. I guess it is not just as simple as hearing it, but it should be true. It is just where the position is, there are some things that cannot be said. I can only mention it in passing.

That is to say, he was in a good mood just now, and the first prototype will be rolled off the production line in a few days, and he just said a little bit out of the ordinary when he was happy.

Lin Feng felt like a mirror in his heart, and immediately said, "The gossip is also good, at least it makes people happy to hear."

What did Xie Kangquan say just now?

He revealed that the higher authorities are very satisfied with the quotation of [-] million yuan each for this transport helicopter, and also revealed that after the first flight of the prototype is successful, the military will consider formally ordering this helicopter.

1200 million each, the price is of course very ideal. According to the current exchange rate, if it is converted into US dollars, it will be close to [-] million US dollars. At first glance, it seems not expensive, but the cost of this transport helicopter is very low. Selling [-] million soft sister coins makes a profit Very rich.

The military will consider making an official order. This is even more exciting than if this plane can sell for [-] million. Even if it orders more than a dozen, it will be more than one billion.

In 1993, there were not many companies with an annual revenue of more than 10 billion. It seemed that Leihuo Technology Industry Group was about to enter the 10 billion club.

Accompanied by Lin Feng, Xie Kangquan visited the helicopter assembly workshop, saw the first prototype that was about to roll off the production line, and learned about the design progress of the medium-sized armed helicopter.Even though the first prototype will come off the production line in a few days, he didn't stay in Leihuo Technology Industrial Group all the time, but only stayed for one day.

He came here in the morning and left in the evening. After all, he was still very busy with his business. When he left, he shook hands with Lin Feng tightly, "Mr. Lin, I will come back in a few days, and I must see our first prototype roll off the production line with my own eyes." .”

Lin Feng said, "Director Xie is welcome to come again. Let us witness the roll-off of the first prototype."

"Okay, definitely!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries and shaking hands tightly, Xie Kangquan led his men into the military off-road vehicle and left.

In the next few days, Lin Feng would appear in the helicopter assembly workshop almost every day to see the helicopter with his own eyes.

Its final assembly work has completely entered the final stage, and it looks decent, even more beautiful than the ones seen in the real color pictures, and its appearance is even higher.

The number of craft technicians and designers surrounding the prototype has increased significantly. In addition to providing technical guidance for the final assembly, everyone also jointly checks the quality of this transport helicopter.

"It looks so beautiful, even more beautiful than I imagined."

"Maybe it will be officially offline the day after tomorrow. It's really exciting."

"The world's most advanced military transport helicopter, I didn't think it would be off the production line here."

"."

Lin Feng went to the final assembly workshop in person again, saw the nearly completed transport helicopter, boarded its cockpit, and even entered its cockpit.

Everything was basically completed, and when sitting in the cockpit, Lin Feng was also slightly excited that this helicopter was finally built by himself.

After staying at Leihuo Helicopter Company for nearly a whole morning, before returning to his office, the transport helicopter was still in his mind. After a while, he picked up the phone and called Xie Kangquan.

"Director Xie, our first prototype will be ready to roll off the assembly line the day after tomorrow."

"So fast." Xie Kangquan was very happy, and immediately said pleasantly, "I will definitely come tomorrow, wait for me."

"We'll be waiting for you to come. The roll-off ceremony of the first prototype will be held at ten o'clock tomorrow morning." Lin Feng said.

"Okay, I must come here before 10:[-] a.m. and go directly to Thunderfire Helicopter's final assembly plant."

The two chatted a few words on the phone. After Lin Feng hung up the phone, he called He Hua's office, and within a minute or two he came over.

"Boss, look for me."

"Hmm." Lin Feng said, "How is the preparation for the roll-off ceremony of our first prototype going?"

Rolling off the first prototype is definitely a milestone.

It is also a very important event for the entire Leihuo Technology Industrial Group. Lin Feng is going to hold a grand offline ceremony, and He Hua is in charge of the preparation work.

"Boss, all the invitations have been sent out. In addition, I specially called everyone to notify again."

He reported the situation. In addition to inviting the guests to the off-line ceremony, the preparation of the venue is also very important. At this time, the preparation of the venue is already underway, and the location is chosen to be in the final assembly workshop.

After listening to the report, Lin Feng said, "The preparations are good. When the time comes, you will deliver a speech on behalf of the company and preside over the offline ceremony."

He Hua was slightly excited.

Unexpectedly, this opportunity to show his face would be given to him again. At that time, he would not only face hundreds of guests from the aviation industry, but also face multiple cameras, including the camera of the imperial court.

The first prototype machine rolled off the production line. Many media said they would send reporters over such a major news event, but Lin Feng declined. will come.

Helicopter assembly workshop.

The workers found that a series of deployment work was being carried out on the large open space right in front of the production line. First, the red carpet was laid, the rostrum was built, and even the rostrum was covered with a red carpet.

Everything looks so festive.

"Wow, this should be the roll-off ceremony of the first prototype."

"Yes, our first prototype officially rolled off the assembly line the day after tomorrow. For such a big event, we are going to hold a roll-off ceremony."

"It looks exciting. I don't know who will come to participate in the off-line ceremony the day after tomorrow."

"."

The rolling off of the first prototype is not only a major event for Leihuo Technology Industry Group, but also a major event for the domestic aviation industry. Many people in the industry know about this event, and some people who received the invitation are full of expectations.

This is the world's most advanced military transport helicopter!
Completely independent intellectual property rights, the world's advanced level, in order to achieve this goal, how many people have worked hard and how many years of perseverance have finally come true, at least in the field of transport helicopters and Western countries have suddenly narrowed the distance.

A famous aviation industry university.

In the office, a gray-haired old professor read over and over the beautiful invitation he had just received. Gradually, his eyes became a little moist, and the scene of everyone struggling to own an advanced helicopter appeared in his mind. scene.

The door of the office was gently pushed open, and a doctoral student walked in. Seeing his supervisor like this, he immediately asked with concern, "Teacher, what's wrong with you."

The old professor gave him the invitation, "Look at the invitation sent to me by Leihuo Technology Industry Group. The world's advanced transport helicopter is about to be born, and the first prototype is about to roll off the production line."

The doctoral student accepted the invitation, looked at it, and said with admiration, "Leihuo Technology and Industry Group is really amazing. They actually produced such an advanced military transport helicopter."

In addition to admiration, he also said a little worried, "Teacher, you are really going to participate in the roll-off ceremony of the first prototype."

"Well, I'm going to take a look at our advanced military transport helicopter."

"However, your physical condition"

The old professor said, "Hearding that the first prototype is about to roll off the production line, my whole body seems to be full of energy, and my body will be fine."

Anyone who can receive the request from Leihuo Technology Industry Group is either a large domestic aviation industry enterprise, or the leader of a related research institute, or a professor from a major related university. A total of more than 100 people will come to witness the launch of the first prototype. offline.

Two days later.

This transport helicopter is fully completed and ready to roll off the production line. There is also a big red flower hanging on the front of the helicopter, which looks very festive.

The red carpet was laid from the main entrance of the workshop to the front of the rostrum next to the helicopter. Everything was ready, and the media reporters were the first to enter the venue, setting up cameras in the designated area early.

If you want to come here earlier, and then carry the camera to shoot around the workshop, it is completely impossible. If this is the case, the secrets will be leaked seriously. These media reporters signed a non-disclosure agreement before entering the venue, and they know what things Can be photographed, those things cannot be photographed.

Gradually, more people entered the workshop, including many invited guests, three or five people came in together, talking and laughing.

"The area of ​​this workshop is really large, it is indeed a helicopter assembly workshop."

"That's our military transport helicopter, even wearing big red flowers."

"The helicopter looks good, it has everything a transport helicopter should look like, it's beautifully styled."

"It looks exquisite, and the quality must be good."

"."

The workshop gradually became extremely lively, and there were more and more people. In addition to the invited guests, some managers and technicians from Leihuo Helicopter Company also came, just to witness the moment when the first prototype rolled off the production line.

Near ten o'clock in the morning.

Everyone turned their attention away from the helicopter and looked towards the door of the workshop. They saw Lin Feng, Xie Kangquan and others walking in the middle, and another 30 to [-] people walked along the red carpet.

"Boss Lin is here!"

There was a slight commotion in the originally lively scene, and some people even stretched their necks to look in the direction where Lin Feng and others were coming.

Along the red carpet, Lin Feng and others walked up to the rostrum and sat down at the designated positions. The first prototype roll-off ceremony began, and the whole ceremony was presided over by He Hua.

He walked to the speaking seat, faced the microphone, and said loudly, "Leaders, distinguished guests, and friends, today is June 1993, 6. This is not only important to us, but also to the entire aviation industry. It will be an extremely important day, the first prototype of our military transport aircraft officially rolls off the assembly line today!"

As soon as the sound fell, there was an extremely warm applause at the scene!
Especially the people from Leihuo Technology Industry Group, not only applauded vigorously, but everyone's face can be seen obviously excited. Everyone has been waiting for this moment for a long time. For this moment, many technicians and management personnel After working overtime, finally, all the hard work and dedication paid off.

He Hua read the entire process of the off-line ceremony, introduced the heavyweight guests sitting on the rostrum, and then announced that Lin Feng and the user representatives would put the final screws on the first prototype together.

There were two screw holes on the side of the helicopter, which were specially reserved for the off-line ceremony. Lin Feng and Xie Kang all stood up and walked off the rostrum under everyone's gaze, each with a screwdriver and each with a screw.

Amidst the sound of snapping pictures, the two tightened the last two screws. At this point, the helicopter is fully completed and ready to roll off the assembly line!

Next, He Hua delivered a speech on behalf of Leihuo Technology Industry Group, as well as user representatives and guest representatives.

The off-line ceremony begins!
"Bang, bang, bang!"

There was a loud gun salute outside the workshop. After the gun salute stopped, He Hua said loudly, "Now, on behalf of Leihuo Technology Industrial Group, I officially announce that the first prototype machine has officially rolled off the assembly line!"

As soon as the sound fell, there was another warm applause!

Some tooling on the production line was slowly opened, and the prototype was slowly rolled off the assembly line under the tractor's traction. Then, the door leading to the heliport from the workshop was slowly opened.

After opening the gate with a width of 30 meters and a height of more than ten meters, a huge heliport is displayed in front of everyone, especially the empty apron, which can park dozens of large helicopters.

Through the gate, the prototype machine slowly left the assembly workshop and finally stopped on the apron.

Another round of applause!
Some people couldn't help but want to cheer. The first helicopter officially rolled off the production line. It parked steadily on the tarmac, deeply attracting everyone's attention.

Lin Feng said loudly, "Now is the time to visit. You can take a close look at our helicopter. In addition to the cockpit, you can even board the helicopter and enter its cockpit to have a look."

boom!
The scene is boiling!

It is everyone's dream to board this helicopter to take a look and take a good tour. So, the crowd left the assembly workshop and went to the apron. Soon, the helicopter was surrounded by people.

The first to board the helicopter were user representatives and some authorities in the aviation industry. After boarding the helicopter and entering the cockpit, each of them became even more restless.

Inside the door to see the door, the layman to watch the fun.

Everyone is a professional, and when they entered the cockpit, they found that it was completely different from other transport helicopters, especially the design of some details, which was very scientific and reasonable, and there were some design details that they had never seen before.

"The design of this cabin is extraordinary, reflecting a very high level of design."

"No wonder it can carry 30 fully armed soldiers at one time, and the cockpit has a lot of space and is very spacious."

"This position is the hang point of the machine gun, it can mount heavy machine guns."

"Boss Lin, when will the first flight start?"

"."

Take a look here, look there, everyone is very excited, Xie Kangquan is no exception, the mood is surging, and he said in his heart again and again, we will finally have the world's advanced transport helicopter.

A few minutes later, everyone stepped off the helicopter reluctantly, because more people were still waiting outside the helicopter to visit.

Throughout the morning, it was extremely lively here.

Batch after batch of people boarded the helicopter to visit, and some even looked curiously at the cockpit of the helicopter through the glass.

It's past 12 noon. At this time, everyone should leave to go to the hotel for dinner, but no one is willing to leave. The buses parked not far away are still empty.

"Mr. Lin, give us another half an hour, I want to take another look at our transport helicopter."

"I want to go into the cockpit to take a look again. It was Grandma Liu who entered the Grand View Garden just now. She looked too hastily. This time, I have to look carefully."

Facing everyone's strong request, Lin Feng said loudly, "Then I will give you another half an hour. After half an hour, we will get in the car and go to eat first. If you want to continue to visit, you can come in the afternoon."

"Really, you can come over in the afternoon."

"Mr. Lin, your decision is really wise. I will definitely come back in the afternoon."

"."

Everyone is a prominent figure in the aviation industry, and they all have a certain status in the aviation industry. But in front of this helicopter, they seem to have forgotten their identities, and they are just pure aviation enthusiasts.

The first prototype was successfully rolled off the production line, and the news spread throughout the domestic aviation industry. Almost everyone in the industry knew about this world-advanced transport helicopter and Leihuo Technology Industry Group.

Some newspapers and TV stations have carried out relevant reports, and the imperial TV station is no exception. In the news broadcast of the next day, there was news that the first prototype machine had successfully rolled off the assembly line.

After the first prototype rolled off the production line, the relevant personnel of Leihuo Technology Industry Group did not stop working. They conducted the last professional inspection on this helicopter, and it will make its first flight.

Everything was checked and the date of the first flight was set, June 1993, 6.

According to the weather forecast, it will be a sunny day with a light breeze. If there are no accidents, the sky will be clear and the visibility will be extremely high, which is perfect for the first flight.

When the first prototype makes its first flight, it usually chooses a day with better weather conditions. Everything is safe. After all, it has never flown before, and no one knows. In theory, there should be no problem, but in reality it may be different. one thing.

The verification test flight is different. Sometimes, in order to verify the helicopter's flight in bad weather, the weather with strong winds, heavy rain, or even the night of lightning and thunder is specially selected.

The morning of the 21th.

As soon as it was dawn, several staff members began to drag the long oil pipe. The first thing today was to refuel the helicopter.

Refueling for the first flight is also very particular, not directly filling up, but adding one-half, or even about one-third.

It can be seen that the prototype was not prepared to hang the auxiliary fuel tank for the first flight. After a while, the fuel volume exceeded one-third, and gradually approached one-half. When it was close to one-half, it stopped refueling.

In the distance, several military off-road vehicles drove over and stopped about 100 meters away from the helicopter.

After returning from my hometown in the countryside, I can work hard to code.

The first chapter will be released, and Chapter 2 will be published today.
