The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master.

Almost at the same time that Chang Haonan officially took up his post as chief planner,

North coast of the Black Sea, Nikolaev.

Wu Yifan, who had taken off his Buryat attire, was sitting in an inconspicuous Peugeot 605 sedan, looking out the window at the scenery of the shore that kept sweeping backwards.

"Fuck, it's better to stay in this peaceful place and feel comfortable..."

He opened the car window a crack and felt the breeze blowing on his face.

Ever since he arrived in the Balkans as a construction contractor in late April, he has been having trouble sleeping.

Although the Allied operation has come to an end, the complex ethnic conflicts in the Balkans will not disappear.

What's more, among the so-called "peacekeeping" forces, there are probably only two or three countries that have no intention of deviating from each other. Therefore, the Pristina area that should have been set up as a demilitarized zone probably maintains less than two The lull in the worship service was quickly filled with all kinds of "homemade" weapons of unknown origin.

Even Lao Wu himself was asked to carry a batch of assault rifles dismantled into parts in a convoy transporting construction materials.

Since the beginning of May, the two ethnic groups, which have become feuding as deep as the sea, have naturally continued to exchange views fiercely on the streets, which even once affected the camps under construction.

Until a few days ago, he flew back to Odessa with an An-26 transport plane, and then rushed to Nikolayev by land almost non-stop.

In contrast, although society has fallen into chaos and economic development has stagnated, things are still calm here in Ermao.

"Angkor, we don't have to pretend to be Buryats this time?"

Yan Yong, who was driving, slightly turned down the volume of the car CD, and then asked.

After staying in the Balkans for more than two months, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable when he suddenly returned to his original fresh look.

"Need not."

Old Wu rolled up the car window to reduce the amount of wind pouring in from outside, and then replied:

"This time I am going to meet some old friends whom I know well before. Moreover, the identity of the Buryat man has been used too often recently. In addition to contacting the Balkans, I have to try my best to use other identities in the future."

"Are you going to change your identity again?"

Yan Yong glanced at Wu Yifan next to him with some doubts.

In fact, he still doesn't know what the latter is doing in the Balkans, but as a person with a normal IQ, it is not difficult to make inferences from some details:

"Boss, you won't..."

Yan Yong's slightly hesitant tone made Wu Yifan's heart immediately jump.

Fortunately, Yan Yong completely let himself go with his next guess:

"You haven't really smuggled gold over there, have you?"

"what?"

Wu Yifan himself was confused.

"I had nothing to do while staying there during this period, so I asked around and heard that before the war started at the beginning of the year, a batch of gold was smuggled to other countries for storage..."

Yan Yong explained.

"What are you thinking about..."

While Lao Wu breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't hold back his laughter and laughed:

"Let's not talk about whether this is true or not. Even if it is, it is gold. It is impossible for people to find me, an outsider who has never been to the Balkans before, to do it. I have nothing to do with it. I am really not afraid of it being stolen. "

After hearing what he said, Yan Yong also felt that his conjecture just now was a bit outrageous, and shook his head mockingly.

Of course, he couldn't have imagined that the actual situation was actually much more outrageous——

The key technical equipment for shooting down stealth bombers was sent out through their hands.

"I'll see if I can get two Tajik or Uzbek passports over time."

Relieved, Old Wu rolled down the window again.

By this time in 99, although it was impossible for the major countries of DaMao, Mao, Mao, Mao and Sanmao to completely escape the chaos caused by the disintegration of the alliance, compared with previous years, some order had been restored.

At least it is very difficult to create a person as it was in the past.

But the situation in Central Asia is still similar to previous years, and there is a lot of room for maneuver.

While he was talking, the car had already arrived in front of a grand gate.

Black Sea Shipyard.

Even before entering the factory, the two of them could vaguely see the towering marine crane in the distance through the car window.

It is not difficult to imagine that a decade or so ago, there was a bustling construction scene here.

But now it is empty.

Even on the cement pavement at the gate, there were several obvious cracks, and a few strands of weeds poked out from them, swaying strongly in the wind.

A sentry with a gun came over, but he was obviously not alert and didn't even hold the gun in his hand.

Wu Yifan handed over the pass he had prepared long ago and was quickly let through smoothly.

They had been here last year. They were planning to try to buy the half-finished aircraft carrier, but in the end they found out that they were fighting against their own people, and there was not enough time to prepare materials, so they had to give up.

But they came here for another purpose this time.

After entering the gate, Old Wu took out his mobile phone and quickly made a call.

"Let's go directly to the outfitting dock."

After ending the call, he said to Yan Yong next to him.

The Nikolayev Shipyard is very large, almost the same size as a common small town in Eastern Europe, so the two of them walked around and spent ten minutes before finally finding the place Wu Yifan mentioned.

A gray-haired old man in a suit was standing on a high platform, looking at several semi-finished ships docked on the shore in the distance.

The most conspicuous among them is naturally the Varyag.

Since it has been soaked in seawater for nearly ten years, the surface of the hull has obviously been covered with a layer of rust.

Of course, for a giant ship of more than 60,000 tons, this will not affect the hull itself, as long as the subsequent rust removal is completed.

However, the mottled appearance reflected by the sea water seems to reflect the end of that superpower.

"Valery Vasilyevich, it's nice to see you again."

Lao Wu pushed out the passenger door and strode behind the man.

瓦列里·瓦西里耶维奇·巴比奇，黑海造船厂高级工程师，参与过苏联时期全部的两艘1123型和7艘1143型航空母舰的研发和建造工作，也是1143.5、1143.6和1143.7三艘航空母舰的项目负责人。

The two had been in contact with each other as early as when Old Wu Gang came to Ermao, and after he officially received the "Friendship Plan" from Chang Haonan, the first thing he thought of was this senior aircraft carrier designer.

"Hello, Wu."

Babbage came up and shook hands with him:

"Are you also here to take delivery of this aircraft carrier?"

Babic looked at the Varyag in the distance again, his eyes filled with complex expressions.

For him, the last three Type 1143 aircraft carriers are like his own children.

However, No. 1143.5 was basically completed when it was dismantled and was eventually sailed to Russia. However, No. 1143.7 was only about 30% completed and could not even get off the zero slipway. It was finally dismantled by the West through a small trick.

Only the last one, 1143.6, remained on the shores of the Black Sea, where it stayed for 8 years.

When the alliance just disintegrated, Babbage also ran around, thinking about completing the ship.

But as Director Makarov said, he quickly realized that after losing the entire alliance's industrial system, this was completely impossible.

Therefore, seeing that the ship was about to be taken away by the Chinese, while he was reluctant to part with it, he was also somewhat relieved.

Although the buyer said that he wanted to build a marine amusement park, this was obviously a very half-hearted excuse.

If you buy it back, you will probably continue to build it.

Besides, to put it another way, even if it really becomes a maritime paradise, it would still be better than the Ulyanovsk being dismantled in the end.

"No, the person who bought this aircraft carrier has nothing to do with me."

Wu Yifan shook his head:

"I came here to take away something more valuable."

"Something more valuable?"

Babbage glanced at Old Wu, who was slightly shorter than him, with some curiosity:

"You mean the cruiser? Or the two hovercrafts?"

The cruiser he is talking about is the fourth ship of the Type 1164 cruiser. 96% of the overall project has been completed. Compared with the Varyag, which needs to go back for renewal, that ship can even barely sail away after repairing it locally. .

As for the hovercraft, they are naturally two large European Bison-class hovercrafts that have also been 90% completed. The Greek Navy is currently interested in purchasing them.

But after asking, he denied it himself before waiting for the latter to answer:

"No, they can't be more valuable than the Varyag..."

Wu Yifan also smiled after hearing this:

"Of course I'm not talking about those old ships."

In fact, he did ask through Chang Haonan before whether the superiors were interested in several other unfinished ships at the Black Sea Shipyard.

But in the end the answer was negative.

In terms of immediate combat capability, China has already ordered four Type 956 destroyers, of which the first two have been completed and will return to China soon to be commissioned. China is not in a hurry to spend a high price to buy another one. Although the combat effectiveness is stronger, there is no technical substitute for it. Poor main battleship.

As for large hovercrafts, there is indeed a demand in the country, but when sea control cannot be guaranteed at the moment, it is obviously not a top priority, and there is no need to compete with the Greeks.

Babic did not reply, but just looked at Wu Yifan, waiting for his next answer.

"Valery Vasilyevich."

After a brief pause, Wu Yifan continued in a slightly bewildering tone;

"If I were to say that I have an opportunity here that would allow you to complete the aircraft carrier yourself... would you be interested?"
