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

There are three main situations where people can be invited to watch the military parade on site (of course, those who go directly to the tower must be excluded here, only those on the viewing platform are counted).

First, people like Chang Haonan and Ding Gaoheng, whose positions have been reached and who are in the capital, are still idle, so they have to go and take a look.

This actually only accounts for a small part.

Because the vast majority of people of sufficient level will be so busy that they hit the back of their heads on October 1st and have no time to attend.

The second is the foreign representatives in China. Needless to say, all of them will be invited, whether it is for the purpose of universal celebration, to demonstrate the courage of a great country, or simply to show off.

However, the number of people is actually not that many.

Counting all the countries, regions, and international organizations, there are only about 300 people, which together cannot make up to 1,000 people.

Most of them were invited as "outstanding representatives of all walks of life" like Yan Yongnian.

Including Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li, this is also the case.

Therefore, when the old couple first got into the car, they subconsciously thought that the other people in the car were in a similar situation to themselves.

But the matter of picking up and delivering cars is obviously a recent issue of zoning.

And where Chang Haonan lives...

In short, Comrade Lao Chang soon discovered that he seemed to have seen some of the faces in the car on TV.

Although they are not the ones in the front row, they can look familiar on Xinwen Network...

Lao Chang felt a little stiff for a moment.

Chang Haonan, who was sitting next to him, also noticed something strange about his old father, so he gave the latter a look to reassure him.

In fact, if it were normal, these people would definitely have their own cars.

It's just that on the day of the National Day, in order to make room for the parade around Chang'an Avenue, ordinary leaders are definitely not qualified to use it.

When several minibuses arrived at the ceremony site one after another, the sky was just getting bright.

However, the troops on the ground receiving the review, as well as the people responsible for the performances and celebrations, were already in place.

From the position of getting off the car, you can even directly see several towering radars in the distance.

Shorter equipment is invisible.

In Chang Haonan's impression, the 99 military parade in his previous life did not seem to have any air force radars on display. He has dealt with a lot of electronic technology systems in his life, and he has never heard of any new models developed by them.

That might just be the command vehicle of the Army's field air defense system.

But even so, Lao Chang still subconsciously stretched his neck to take a look over there.

As a result, this somewhat unsightly move was pulled back by Zhou Li:

"You can watch whatever you want on the stage later. Be honest here and don't cause trouble to Xiaonan!"

……

The positions of Chang Haonan and the three others were arranged on the westernmost side of the east viewing platform.

In fact, Chang Haonan didn't understand what the arrangement was at the beginning.

But no matter what, being relatively in the middle is always a good thing.

As more and more people took their seats, he quickly recognized a few familiar faces from the crowd.

They are all model masters who have worked together before, or at least met them once.

There are also People's Liberation Army officers.

"Mr. Zhu, long time no see. How is your work lately?"

This is Zhu Yusheng, the chief designer of the domestic third-generation main battle tank, who Chang Haonan met when he was working on the die forging press at the Northern Vehicle Research Institute.

"Mr. Chang?"

Zhu Yusheng shook hands with Chang Haonan with his left hand:

"Thanks to you, the progress of the new tank is much smoother than expected. More than a dozen prototypes have been built. They will be organized into a separate formation to be reviewed today..."

"Captain Shen..."

This was when Chang Haonan went to the 7th HNA Division to test the JH-8, and it was Commander Shen Tao who drove the Y-J there.

There should be one Y-8J and one Y-8X in their group today, but for some reason Shen Tao himself appeared on the ground.

"Mr. Chang..."

"Hey... don't mention it. When I was selecting crew members for training, I was preparing for combat duty at the South China Sea Fleet. By the time I got back from training, the day lilies were already cold..."

After the embankment operation, the Chinese Air Force and Naval Air Force gradually increased the intensity of patrols in the South China Sea.

Although the Y-8J proved to have some flaws in that operation, at least it was not suitable for use against NATO and its allies, after all, the air time and sea detection capabilities were not bad, and the flight cost of the turboprop transport platform was relatively low. , very suitable for containing opponents in indirect confrontations.

"That's really a pity..."

Chang Haonan couldn't think of any good way to comfort the other party.

At Shen Tao's age, it is absolutely impossible for him to catch up in the next ten years.

"Deputy Commander Huang..."

Commander Huang Linqun, who was stationed at Gangneung Embankment two years ago, has now achieved the rank of senior colonel.

"Guo Gong..."

Naturally, it is Guo Lin who has a deep cooperative relationship with Chang Haonan.

Of course there were some people he didn't expect.

"Researcher Xu?"

Chang Haonan looked at Xu Yang behind him with shock on his face.

"I applied from the Institute of Computing Technology, a representative from the scientific research community. How do you feel about it? Are you surprised?"

Xu Yang was dressed fashionably, took off the sunglasses on his face, raised his hands to block the sun, and then looked at Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li next to Chang Haonan:

"These two should be..."

"Oh, it's my father and Jia Ci..."

"..."

Chang Haonan himself never expected that in less than four years, he would already have such a broad network of contacts.

Before I even finished greeting everyone I knew nearby, the orchestra across the street had already played the "Welcoming March."

This is the signal for the review chief and special guests to appear.

Sure enough, warm applause erupted from both sides of Chang'an Avenue.

Before this, Chang Haonan always thought that using thunder to describe applause was an exaggerated metaphor.

But this time, he realized that could also be a normal description.

Even the sound of military music can cover it up.

Of course, the main force of applause was the tens of thousands of ceremony staff opposite, otherwise the thousands of people on the viewing platform alone would not have been able to create such an exaggerated effect.

About two or three minutes later, an energetic voice sounded:

"The gathering of all walks of life in the capital to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China begins now!"

"Sound a salute!"

As the words of the leader who presided over the ceremony on the tower fell, the enthusiasm instantly turned into silence.

The applause and military music all fell silent.

"boom--"

"boom--"

A fifty-gun salute was fired to pay tribute to the fifty years that the Republic has gone through.

At the same time, the national flag guard set off from both sides of the Monument to the People's Heroes, holding a five-star red flag and converging into a military-colored torrent, slowly walking along the rolled-out red carpet towards the flagpole standing on the square.

The eyes of everyone on the viewing platform and the tower were focused on them, the national flags in their hands, and the monument behind them.

History will never forget the sacrifices made by millions of Chinese heroes and martyrs for the independence and liberation of the nation.

"Crack-pump-"

The moment they crossed the dividing line, the guards changed their steps to goose-step, and the rhythm of their neat steps was clearly audible even amidst the sound of the salute.

Under the flagpole in the square, the 12 rows of team members were divided into two again and lined up again.

Three flag bearers fixed the flag to the flagpole rope.

"Cha-"

The rifle slanted down from the shoulder and touched the ground.

At the same time, the 50th gun salute was fired, and the scene returned to silence.

"Everyone stands in awe!"

"Raise the flag and sing the national anthem!"

Even Chang Haonan, who thought he was used to big scenes, felt his heart beat wildly twice when he heard these words.

Chang Yuanchao next to him stood up.

"salute!"

A command was given not only to the PLA and Armed Police commanders present, but also to everyone——

The honor guard raised his rifle to his chest again.

A sea of ​​golden flowers across Chang'an Street turned into the shape of the gold and red national emblem.

The Young Pioneers put the five fingers of their right hands together and raised their heads high...

Immediately afterwards, the military band conductor raised his baton again.

"Rise up, you who do not want to be slaves..."

The sonorous and powerful national anthem resounded through the sky.

The five-star red flag rises slowly against the sun that has just emerged from the clouds!
