Start with the aviation industry

Chapter 396 Amazing flight display

The Paris Air Show begins as scheduled!
The first three days are professional days, and those who can come to visit the airshow are all relevant people in the world's aviation industry.

For example, people from major aviation companies, people from major aviation research institutions, scholars and experts in related fields, of course, political leaders from various countries, some people from the military of various countries, and so on.

There are almost no ordinary people on the professional day, and they can only come in when the public day is open.

The whole air show is divided into indoor exhibition area and outdoor exhibition area.The scale of the indoor exhibition area is not small, tens of thousands of square meters, hundreds of related companies, and thousands of exhibits.

The area of ​​the outdoor exhibition area is frighteningly large, and you can't see the edge at a glance. It is full of various large and small aircrafts, many of which are the most advanced and latest aircrafts.

The outdoor exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group is also very large. There are four "Tianlong" transport helicopters and two "Small Veyron" armed helicopters neatly parked. The most attractive ones should be the four "Flying Dragon" fighters, and A giant transport aircraft.

All the people in Leihuo Technology Industrial Group wore white short-sleeved shirts, ties, trousers and leather shoes.

With the start of the air show, there are many people in both the outdoor exhibition area and the indoor exhibition area, most of them are professionals in the aviation industry, and there are also some military personnel in military uniforms.

In addition, there are many reporters!
The Paris Air Show has great influence, attracting almost all the well-known media in the world, and they are rushing to report on the grand occasion of the air show.

For example, in the outdoor exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group, there is a beautiful blonde reporter facing the camera, and behind her is the "Fat Girl" large transport plane.

"Gentlemen and ladies, this is one of the largest military transport aircraft in the world. It was developed by China's Leihuo Technology Industry Group. At this air show, the only large military transport aircraft of the same level as it is the C-17 Globemaster."

He Hua was also wearing a shirt and tie, followed by several people from Leihuo Technology Industry Group. He had just looked at the indoor exhibition area, and now he is here in the outdoor exhibition area.

"Mr. He, there are so many people visiting our exhibition area!"

He Hua smiled with satisfaction, "They basically came for our 'Flying Dragon' fighter plane and the 'Fat Girl' large transport plane."

"Mr. He, if someone wants to order our 'Fat Girl' large transport aircraft, do we really accept the order?"

He Hua said without hesitation, "If there is an order, I will definitely accept it!"

Before coming to participate in the air show, Lin Feng had already explained that once a customer took a fancy to our large transport aircraft, he would accept an order and promised to start delivery within one year.

There should be no problem starting deliveries within a year.

So far, two of the "Pang Niu" large transport aircraft have rolled off the production line, and most of the project flight test verifications have been completed. In a few months, they will enter small-batch production. There should be no problem in producing [-] to [-] aircraft a year.

What is the price of each one.

Because two planes have been produced, the financial department’s cost calculation has also come out. Although it is not very accurate, it can be used for reference. The production cost of each plane is about 5 million soft sister coins.

That's about $6600 million.

This is the horror of the system, not only the performance of the aircraft is good, but also the cost is much lower than that of the same type of transport aircraft.

如漂亮国的C-17环球霸王运输机，它对漂亮国军方的售价大约是1亿2000万美元，卖给英国大约是1亿5000万美元，卖给澳大利亚则是1亿4000万美元。

This is the price in the 90s. After more than ten years, the price has risen a lot. The price for the military of the beautiful country is generally more than 1 million US dollars. The price in the international market is different for different countries. But it generally exceeds the selling price of 5000 million US dollars.

However, in history, there are not many overseas customers of C-17. The reason is that the beautiful country implements export controls on large strategic transport aircraft. I would not sell it to ordinary people. On the other hand, this aircraft is really too expensive.

At that time, the beautiful country forcibly sold the C-17 to NATO. As a result, the 10 small European member countries of NATO pooled their money, and finally bought a total of 3 planes.However, everyone in India has a lot of stupid money and generous donations. They will buy 10 planes as soon as they make a move. The total contract price is US$58 billion (US$5.8 million for a single plane), making them the largest overseas buyer of C-17.

With the birth of the "Fat Girl" large strategic transport aircraft, the market for the C-17 Globemaster will definitely undergo tremendous changes, and it will no longer be the same as in history.

The cost estimate made by the financial department of Leihuo Technology Industry Group is about 5 million manufacturing costs. In fact, Lin Feng knows best that the real cost of this aircraft is 6000 million.

The cost of 4 million, about 8500 million U.S. dollars, is much lower than the cost of the C-5700 Globemaster, and its performance is far superior to that of the C-17 Globemaster. It is estimated that there is no C-17 in the international market.

Lin Feng was going to do just that. The price of "Fat Girl" in the international market was only 9800 million US dollars, not even [-] million US dollars.

The cost is 5700 million US dollars, the price is 9800 million US dollars, and the net profit of each tearful is only 4100 million US dollars.

Huge profits, simply huge profits!
Therefore, He Hua said with certainty that as long as there are overseas customers who are willing to place an order, he will accept as many orders as possible, and the more the better.

After looking at his outdoor exhibition area, He Hua was very satisfied. Not only did many people come to visit, but also many people knew about these aircrafts. Foreigners introduced.

This time, more than 200 people came from Leihuo Technology Industry Group, at least half of them can speak English, and a few of them can speak French.

What He Hua didn't expect was that he actually met an acquaintance.

A group of people wore robes and headscarves, making them very conspicuous. They arrived at the outdoor exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group and began to visit with great interest.

Immediately, a staff member came to report, "Mr. He, Prince Walid from Country A in the Middle East has arrived at our exhibition area."

He Hua said happily, "Prince Waleed is our old customer, old friend, let's go over and receive him."

When the two sides met, there was a warm hug first.

"Mr. He, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

"His Royal Highness Prince Waleed, I am the same."

After the two exchanged a few polite words, Prince Walid asked, "What about Mr. Lin, hasn't he come?"

He Hua explained, "Our boss stays at home, and the company has many affairs that cannot be separated from him."

Prince Walid just asked casually, and his eyes were quickly set on this large strategic transport plane.

They have bought a lot of other aircraft participating in the exhibition. For example, they have bought more than 100 Tianlong transport helicopters, more than 100 Serena armed helicopters, and 150 Wyvern fighter jets. of great interest.

"Mr. He, this is your company's new product, can you introduce it to me?"

This is the first time that the "Fat Girl" large strategic transport aircraft has made two appearances on the international stage, and even Prince Walid's understanding of it is relatively limited.

Of course He Hua was happy, and while introducing himself, he took them around the plane for a while.

However, after the visit, Prince Walid did not say anything about ordering this plane. Maybe it is not needed for the time being, maybe it is the first day of the airshow, so there is plenty of time, and it will not be too late to discuss the order in a few days .

Although the first day of the air show was lively, everything was normal, and nothing major happened. It was different on the second day.

Not long after He Hua arrived at the air show, a subordinate came over to report, "Mr. He, McQuay publicly announced that all orders for their F-16 fighters during this air show will only cost 1800 million US dollars each. "

Hearing this, He Hua's face became a little colder.

I have heard some news before that the F-16 fighter may compete with its own "Flying Dragon" fighter on price. The original international price is at least 2000 million US dollars, and it may drop to 2000 million US dollars, or even lower than this price.

Sure enough, with this air show, they publicly announced a price cut, and the price of each aircraft was only 1800 million US dollars.

In addition to being slightly angry, He Hua's face gradually relaxed, as if the anger in his heart had disappeared, because he thought in his heart that in front of his "Flying Dragon" fighter, the F-16 fighter could only be sold at a reduced price.

Before the "Flying Dragon" fighter jet, the beautiful country restricted the sale of F-16 fighter jets, which cannot be bought with money. Now, the situation has completely changed. Not only has the sale restriction been cancelled, but it has also tried its best to promote it to the international market.

"Mr. He, the price of our 'Flying Dragon' fighter is 2000 million US dollars, should we adjust it to 1800 million US dollars?"

He Hua shook his head and said, "There's no need, our products are better than theirs, and it's normal to sell them more expensive than them."

Then, He Hua turned his attention to the exhibition area of ​​McVay Company, where various aircrafts of their company were parked, including several of the latest F-16 fighter jets.

He Hua said, "If I remember correctly, there will be an F-16 fighter jet flight demonstration this morning."

"Yes, the commendation arrangement for our 'Flying Dragon' fighter plane is also this morning, behind them."

Even the organizers knew that the F-16 fighter and the "Flying Dragon" fighter were competing in the international market, so they simply arranged the flight demonstrations of the two on the same morning, just in order.

After a while, one of the highlights of this air show, the flight demonstration of the F-16 fighter jets began. It also used a formation of four aircraft. A total of four F-16 fighter jets drove to the runway one after another, lined up, and were ready to take off. .

This of course attracted almost everyone, and even some people cheered up, and the exciting drama was about to begin.

Some reporters occupied the best positions early, pointing their cameras at these planes, and some reporters even faced the camera and started live broadcasting.

"I heard that this is the latest F-16 fighter jet, and their flight performance must be wonderful!"

"This is the king of fighter jets, one of the most advanced fighter jets in the world!"

"I can't wait a bit, why haven't I started yet!"

"."

Not long after, a voice came from the loudspeaker, introducing the F-16 fighter jet and the flight demonstration. Almost everyone at the airshow could hear it clearly, and the atmosphere of the entire airshow suddenly rose.

In everyone's eyes, the first F-16 fighter started to accelerate and successfully took off on the runway, and then the second, third, and fourth.

After taking off, the four F-16 fighters formed in the air and began to perform a series of flight demonstrations over the air show, performing various beautiful and difficult movements. The entire flight performance lasted about two to three 10 minutes.

Amid the warm applause, the four planes successfully landed on the runway one by one, slowed down, and then stopped back to the planned area.

"fantastic!"

"As expected of an F-16 fighter jet, this is one of the most exciting flight performances I have ever seen!"

"I heard that the flying demonstration of the 'Flying Dragon' fighter will be next, I don't know what will happen!"

"I bet it's definitely not as good as the performance of the F-16 fighter jet!"

"."

Although the "Flying Dragon" fighter has received more than 1000 international orders, it is not very well-known in Western countries. Many people have heard of this fighter, but they don't have a comprehensive understanding of it. Many people even think that it is not as good as the F What about the -16 fighter.

Not too long later, a total of four 'Flying Dragon' fighters also drove to the distant runway, neatly arranged.

Almost all eyes were on these fighter planes, and those reporters pointed their cameras at these fighter planes again. Some reporters held microphones and started live broadcasting while facing the camera.

"Those planes are really beautiful. In terms of appearance, I think they are much more beautiful than F-16 fighter planes!"

"Yeah, look at its streamlined appearance and sci-fi appearance, I fell in love with them immediately!"

"What's the use of looking good for a fighter, the most important thing is performance!"

"Yes, it's absolutely correct. If the performance is not good, it doesn't matter how beautiful the appearance is!"

"."

During the eager discussion, the loudspeaker at the air show rang again, everyone at the scene heard it clearly, and began to introduce the 'Flying Dragon' fighter plane and the next flight demonstration.

Thousands of eyes watched the four fighter planes, and everyone knew that they were about to speed up on the runway and take off.

How did you know that a scene that shocked everyone appeared!

The four fighter planes took off vertically at the same time without accelerating on the runway at all. They left the ground almost at the same time under everyone's amazed eyes. Fly away quickly.

"Oh God, what did I see!"

"It's actually a vertical takeoff and landing!"

"It seems that only Harrier fighter jets can take off and land vertically!"

"Hehe, haven't you noticed that their vertical takeoff is much smoother and easier than that of the Harrier!"

Today is a professional day, and basically everyone here is considered a professional, or at least an industry insider. They still have eyes, and they can see a lot of things when they look at the vertical take-off of these four 'Flying Dragon' fighters.

Their vertical take-off is obviously not ordinary, reflecting excellent vertical take-off and landing performance, and also reflecting extremely high technical content.

The four 'Flying Dragon' fighters moved away quickly, turning into small black dots, and then disappeared from everyone's sight, but soon they turned in a large radius, flew towards the airport, and appeared in everyone's sight again within the field of vision.

Everyone's first impression is that the speed is so fast!
"boom!"

The four 'Flying Dragons' easily broke through the sound barrier, with a height of only a few hundred meters. They flew over the air show. Because the speed was too fast, the sound and movement were not small. Especially at the moment when they broke through the sound barrier, many people felt their ears tremble shock.

"At least twice the speed of sound!"

"Not only that, it has broken through to Mach [-] in a short period of time, and the speed seems to be increasing rapidly!"

Too fast!
Four "Flying Dragon" fighters kept formation and whizzed past the air show at a speed of at least Mach [-]. Everyone is a professional, and it can be seen that the speed exceeds three times the speed of sound.

Who can achieve this speed!
This speed alone kills all the fighters in the world, even the F-22 fighters can't keep up!

Many people were stunned, the fighter plane had once again disappeared from sight, and none of them came back to their senses.

Soon, the plane flew back and appeared in everyone's field of vision again. After reaching the sky above the air show, there was a vertical climb first. The four fighters, like four arrows, went straight to the sky!
"God, what did I see, it's a supersonic vertical climb!"

"I didn't see it with my own eyes. If I was killed, I wouldn't believe that there is a fighter in the world who can do this!"

The entire air show scene seemed to be quiet at this moment. The supersonic vertical climb was so shocking that some shocked mouths opened wide enough to stuff an egg.

In the next two or three 10 minutes, the four "Flying Dragon" fighters performed a series of wonderful performances. The excellent performance of the fighters, especially the excellent maneuverability and excellent handling performance, were fully reflected!
Most of them are professionals, and everyone can see a lot of things. When the flight demonstration ended and the four 'Flying Dragon' fighters landed vertically on the airport, there was warm applause and cheers from the mountains and tsunami.

There was a beautiful blonde reporter, holding a microphone, facing the camera, her face flushed with excitement.

"Gentlemen and ladies, this is a rare and wonderful flight display. Thank you Leihuo Technology Industrial Group, and thank you for the wonderful visual feast brought to us by these four 'Flying Dragon' fighters."

There are not a few journalists who conduct live broadcasts of excitement in this way. Professional sensitivity tells them that the 'Dragon' fighter jet will become one of the most dazzling stars at this air show, which is hot news.

Some military leaders looked at the four 'Flying Dragon' fighter planes parked in the distance with fiery eyes and were reluctant to move away.

Such an excellent fighter plane is simply the pinnacle work, and each one only costs 2000 million U.S. dollars, so you must order a batch.

With such an excellent fighter plane defense, the sense of security is overwhelming, and there is no longer any need to worry about being invaded. You must order it anyway and install it as soon as possible.

After the flight demonstration, the exhibition area of ​​Leihuo Technology Industry Group became the most lively and popular exhibition area of ​​the whole air show. Even He Hua got busy and personally received some visiting politicians, military leaders and so on.

Five thousand words are updated today, thank you for your support!
