The years of red flags

The vice president sneered and said, "Some people in the management want to invest the extra money in real estate and financial institutions. They have completely forgotten the mission of our CSSC Group."

"It's normal. Everyone has their own thoughts."

The vice president waved his hand and said, "Sooner or later, this kind of person will cause problems. Let's not talk about other things and just chat about family matters."

"Chat about family matters?" Jiang Hua said with a smile, "This is the first time we two have met. What can we possibly talk about?"

"That's a lot." The vice president said curiously, "Recently, you, Mr. Huo, and Boss Wang have taken turns to work on a new chemical plant. The industry is very curious. What kind of company can make you three big guys work so hard?"

"My own child." Jiang Hua said with a smile, "How can I expect others to care about my own child if I don't care about it myself?"

"Your son seems to be only in his teens this year." The vice president said in surprise, "You are too hasty to let him go out to do business when he is only in his teens."

"The daily operations are handled by Brother Huo's two sons and Boss Wang's son." Jiang Hua smiled and said, "My son has a stake in it, but he developed the products, so it can be considered a family business."

"Incredible! I thought your heroic deeds were already remarkable, but I didn't expect your son to be even more impressive."

"The kids are doing well." Jiang Hua said proudly, "I also have face outside. I feel very proud."

"I'm so envious. If my child could be like you, I'd be so confident." The vice president asked curiously, "What product is you developing this time?"

"A polymer coating. It was originally developed to be sprayed on the surface of cars to prevent scratches."

The vice president immediately became interested: "This product is quite interesting. Can it only be used in cars? Does it have any other applications?"

“It can definitely be used, but it has not yet been officially produced and is still waiting for customers to develop it.”

The vice president asked, "Can this product be used on the painted surface of a boat?"

"You have a ship that weighs hundreds of thousands of tons. Are you afraid of scratching the paint?"

The vice president smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid of scratches when you spray paint a ship? It will corrode the bottom of the ship easily."

"As far as I know, the paint on the ship is most afraid of marine shellfish."

The vice president smiled and said, "Maybe it will work on this kind of shells. It takes a lot of effort to remove the shipworms."

“When the product is available, we will test it.”

This time the authorities were particularly efficient and the contract was signed in less than half a month. Jiang Hua earned billions again. It is true that the rich get richer and it is easier for rich people to make money.

What Jiang Hua never expected was that the first mission assigned to Huaxing Shipbuilding was actually the Type 052. He thought he might start with an auxiliary ship to practice, but he didn't expect to use a big move right away. "Boss Jiang, as long as these two Type 052s are launched beautifully, I will give you a bigger order and a bigger ship next time."

Jiang Hua nodded: "A bigger ship won't make us take on an aircraft carrier, but I don't think it's possible. Could it be a 10,000-ton cruiser?"

"It is a destroyer, not a cruiser."

Jiang Hua already knew which ship it was, but he still pretended to be surprised: "Ten thousand tons, you call it a destroyer, how can there be a ten thousand tons destroyer?"

"How can there be no Zumwalt from the Ugly Country?"

Jiang Hua sneered at the ship: "It's just a half-baked project, and they claim to have an electromagnetic gun. In my opinion, with the current research progress of the Ugly Country, by the time our electromagnetic gun is developed, theirs will be gone. The Ugly Country's Zumwalt is destined to be an unfinished project."

"You seem to know a lot." The person who spoke was a naval officer stationed at the factory: "You seem to have a certain understanding of the progress of the Ugly Country's electromagnetic gun."

"I don't understand." Jiang Hua's head was shaking even more: "But I understand the Ugly Country. Since the collapse of the former big bear, it has been like half of its soul has been sucked out and it has never recovered. For the Ugly Country, this kind of research work on the country's most important weapon is doomed to fail because they feel that they have no enemies."

"Not really, it's like half of your soul has been taken away." The vice president said with a smile: "Since the collapse of the former big bear, the ugly country is now thriving and developing, and has become the world's only superpower."

"He maintained his prosperity by cutting leeks from all over the world." Jiang Hua said disdainfully, "It was all obtained through plunder. We had already concluded sixty or seventy years ago that things obtained through plunder could not maintain long-term prosperity. The Ugly Country now relies on their reputation after they dealt with the big bear, but as time goes by, this reputation is declining, especially now that they are making trouble in the Middle East and can't even handle two small countries. This prestige will plummet. In another ten or twenty years, they won't be able to cut leeks even if they want to."

"That makes sense." The vice president raised his finger and said, "Boss Jiang, you have a far-sighted vision. No wonder I often saw your articles in internal publications. So, in another ten or twenty years, the ugly country will fall into decline."

"Don't be too happy." Jiang Hua shook his head. "He is used to being the boss of the world. It is not so easy for him to give up his position automatically. At the last minute, he must have something big to mess up. He will be unwilling to leave until he is unable to clean up the mess."

The naval officer nodded and said, "We won't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of them causing trouble. A dozen or twenty years will be enough for us to accumulate strength and firmly suppress them in the Pacific. By then, if they still want to show off their skills to us, don't blame us for being rude."

Huaxing Shipbuilding has obviously invested a lot of energy in these two 052 ships. Only the best and most reliable shipbuilders can enter this project. All engineers are divided into two, and these two ships alone account for half.

Of course, the space agency is not to be outdone. With a lot of money invested, they are going to launch another manned Shenzhou spacecraft this year, using the heavy-lift rocket of Huaxing Group. This time, the Shenzhou spacecraft is obviously more than two times larger than the previous ones, and will carry out scientific research work on several projects in space.

The most intuitive feeling about Huaxing Aerospace is that we are proud of it.

With the Shenzhou spacecraft about to be launched, Jiang Hua went to visit the Space Administration, mainly to express his condolences to the princes of wealthy families who were receiving training at the Space Administration.

The relevant person in charge of the space agency complained: "This is our ancestors. We have lowered the training intensity of regular astronauts by several levels, but they still can't pass it."
