Chapter 330 Plan for the aircraft carrier base
Huating, Chongming Island.
This place has never been so lively. So early in the morning, there was a long queue outside.
There have been a lot of additional bus trips, and each bus is packed with people. If you look at it from the sky, the road outside the aircraft carrier park is already a sea of people in the popular scenic spot.
There was a small commotion at the ticket office of the Aircraft Carrier Park.
“What’s going on? Why aren’t you selling tickets?”
“That’s right, we came all the way here just to see the sight of the aircraft carrier, but you didn’t want to sell it?”
"I'm sorry, dear tourists, we have sold 10,000 tickets so far. If we continue to sell tickets, it will cause overcrowding in the park, causing inconvenience and even danger. You can wait a moment and wait for the first wave of tourists. After the tour is completed and we come out of it, we will launch the second wave of sales in due course.”
I don’t dare to sell it anymore. Ten thousand people are all going to see the aircraft carrier. What if there is a crowd? What to do if it gets trampled?
Let one wave go in first, and then go in the second wave after reading it.
“We don’t care, we have to watch!”
"Please be patient. After the first wave of tourists enter, we will hold free performances at the entrance of the park. All performances are Da Mao's specialties. You can watch them outside now."
“That’s pretty much it!”
Soon, the gate of the park opened, and countless tourists entered the aircraft carrier park after checking in. They took tickets like passports and went to the gate to get stamped first, and then went to the entry and exit gate to take pictures, because there were too many people. Many people didn't have time to stamp or take photos, so they entered with the flow of people, passed through Damao Fengqing Street, and then came to the place where various weapons were placed on the ground.
Tanks, planes, and artillery, they started to stop and take pictures when they were here.
“Hey, there’s still construction going on over there?”
In a corner of the park, it was still under construction, which aroused their curiosity.
“What are you doing?”
“Sino-Japanese War Memorial Hall.” Someone read the large characters on the banner hanging on the wall of the construction site.
“Sino-Japanese War, Memorial Hall?”
They read the name, and then thought of something: "I have watched "Sino-Japanese War". This movie is really spectacular. It's a pity that the Qing government was corrupt and incompetent, and in the end the Beiyang Navy was annihilated."
“Yes, it’s different now. Our country’s navy has gradually become stronger!”
With emotion, they walked towards the tall aircraft carrier Kiev and started watching.
At this time, in the office at the corner of the entrance of the aircraft carrier park, Qin Tao was being interviewed by a reporter.
Although Qin Tao did not follow the aircraft carrier when it sailed to the north, of course, on the first day of the aircraft carrier park's opening, Qin Tao would come here and take charge personally. The arrangements for banning tickets, free performances, etc. were all made by Qin Tao made it, after all, people in this era have no relevant experience.
When everything was stable, when he learned that someone was coming for an interview, Qin Tao happily accepted the interview request.
"I am very happy to have an exclusive interview with Mr. Qin of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group. I feel very honored." Nie Xiaoxiao, a reporter from Ma Gang Daily, was full of excitement. She pressed the record button on a Walkman and placed it on the on the table between the two of them.
"Today is the first day of the opening of the aircraft carrier park. There are so many tourists outside, which fully reflects the success of this project. Mr. Qin, you are full of halo. You are not only an excellent technician, but also a very good person." Businessman. How did you realize this project was going to be a hit?”
"Because our Chinese people have great patriotic sentiments, our project is not only a simple theme park, but also a platform for patriotic ideological education." Qin Tao explained: "After everyone boarded the aircraft carrier, Not only can we feel its power, but we can also form a consensus that if we want to make our motherland strong, we must have a strong navy and strong national defense. At present, we are still engaged in engineering construction and plan to build a Sino-Japanese War The war memorial lets everyone know that those who fall behind will be beaten.”
The interview went very smoothly, and Nie Xiaoxiao was very happy. Mr. Qin always had precious time and rarely accepted individual interviews. She was very lucky today.
After asking all the pre-prepared questions, Nie Xiaoxiao thought of something and continued to ask: "So, does your group have any similar projects?"
"Yes, there are similar projects." Qin Tao said: "We know that Magang will return in 1999. Our motherland is very tolerant, and Magang's existing business will continue. So, we want to do a similar project.”
“What project?”
"We want to buy another aircraft carrier and then open a *park on it." Qin Tao said: "This will be an innovation in Magang-related industries. I believe it will be as successful as today's aircraft carrier park project. ."
Carrier*field?
Nie Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, this is really a creative project!
“Let us make contributions together to prosper the economy of Ma Hong Kong.” Qin Tao said: “Our motherland will also become more prosperous and stronger!”
The reason why I accepted this interview with this reporter was for this final project!
The aircraft carrier park has been opened. Judging from the huge crowds of people, the project is still very successful. Then, their Mingzhou Group will continue to work on related projects.
“So, do you plan to purchase another Kiev-class aircraft carrier?”
Qin Tao thought for a moment, and then said: "Currently, the Minsk has been dismantled into scrap metal. The Novorossiysk has some commercial disputes with the South Kimchi State Company, so the only ones of the same model are left. Admiral Gorshkov. However, this warship is still the flagship of the Dalai Lama Northern Fleet. It is impossible for us to purchase it. Therefore, at present, we can only wait for the right opportunity to purchase it. A suitable aircraft carrier.”
Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group's aircraft carrier park has opened and it is very popular, so they want to continue their efforts and purchase another aircraft carrier to convert it into a maritime naval base!
This news quickly spread around the world as Ma Gang Daily reported it.
The next day, early in the morning, Qin Tao was still sleeping with his wife in his arms when he was woken up by his elder brother.
“Hello, Nicholas? My old friend, you disturbed my rest!” Qin Tao complained.
“Qin, I heard that you want to purchase a warship and transform it into a military base. Do you want to consider our Novorossiysk?”
"Not consider!"
"Why?"
"My old friend, please stop harming me. A few days ago, Pu Douxuan from Dazhou Company sneaked into the reporters and attacked me suddenly, saying that I would dig holes for them with your Pacific Fleet. This news , don’t you know? If I buy the Novorossiysk, what will the outside world think of me? I can’t clean it up even if I jump into the Yellow River!”
Qin Tao's words left Nikolai speechless. He really wanted to give the Novorossiysk to Qin Tao. After all, they are all old friends. Seeing that the Kiev has become an aircraft carrier park, Ming The Sk was turned into scrap metal, and Nikolai felt uncomfortable. He was looking forward to finding a good future for the Novorossiysk.
“Okay, I’m going to go to sleep. Remember, don’t make phone calls early in the morning in the future.”
We are all old friends. If Qin Tao occasionally complains like this, not only will he not feel offended, but he will also feel that this is a sign that Qin Tao does this because he is familiar with them.
Zhao Ling also woke up under the quilt.
"what's the situation?"
“Nicholas is calling. It’s true. It disturbs people’s dreams so early in the morning.” Qin Tao stretched out his hand: “It’s true. Now that I’m awake, I can’t fall asleep, and I don’t want to leave the bed. Let’s go on…”
“No, I should go to work!”
“Go to work? It’s still early!”
Zhao Ling and Qin Tao returned to Huating together, and her short vacation was over. However, Qin Tao also came to Huating, and Zhao Ling would not make do in the work dormitory, and would definitely go home.
With this move, model worker Zhao Ling changed from the first person to go to work to the last person to go to work.
However, Xu Zhengyang came to report other things to him.
“Several French people came to see you early in the morning. Because you were resting, they were waiting downstairs. Do you want to go see them?”
“The French? Well, look what they want to do.”
On a bench in the community, several foreigners were sitting there, talking in low voices, with excitement on their faces.
“Philip, Duquesne?” Qin Tao looked at the figures of these people and already guessed their purpose.
“Mr. Qin, nice to meet you, we...”
“Let’s go, get in the car, and we’ll talk in the car.” Qin Tao said, “I’m very busy, so I can only give you the time in the car. Don’t dislike it, Westerner.”
“Yes, okay.” Philip retracted his outstretched hand, and then followed Qin Tao and got into the Mercedes-Benz G. This car was spacious enough for a meeting inside.
“Why do you two have time to come to the East?”
“We heard that the Kiev aircraft carrier park was opening, so we came here. Yesterday afternoon, we boarded the aircraft carrier and took a look. Qin, you are so creative.” Philip said with emotion.
Hearing these words of praise, Qin Tao felt a little carried away: "Yes, I admire myself very much too. Mr. Philip, aren't you the captain of the aircraft carrier? Why do you have time to come to the East to see our aircraft carrier park?"
"Currently our aircraft carrier is resting at the domestic dock. Although we are soldiers, we are also human beings. We cannot work endlessly and have our own holidays." Philip said: "Qin, I heard that you are going to buy another aircraft carrier and renovate it. To become the first, would you consider our aircraft carrier Clemenceau?"
The Charles de Gaulle will be commissioned soon, and their Clemenceau will be retired sooner or later. They have to find a buyer! If that aircraft carrier is dismantled, it will cost money. It would be best if it can be sold.
Therefore, since they encountered this opportunity, of course they couldn't miss it. Philip and Duquesne did see the aircraft carrier park yesterday. They were tempted last night when they heard that Qin Tao wanted to continue his efforts to transform the aircraft carrier base. , ran over immediately.
They don't have the same relationship as Nicholas, and they can't call Qin Tao directly. They can only wait here.
At this time, both of them looked at Qin Tao expectantly.
“Are you going to give it to me for free?”
The expressions of the two of them were a little awkward.
The last time the talks collapsed, it was because of the modification fee. Although the aircraft carrier was free, modifications cost money. The scene at that time was still vivid in their minds. Philip and Duquesne did not want to anger Qin Tao.
"Of course not." Duquesne said cautiously: "Our Clemenceau is willing to sell it to you at the price you paid for the Kiev. Our ship has no weapons and equipment, so it is easier to modify."
Qin Tao glanced at the two of them: "Impossible."
“Then how much are you willing to pay?”
“If you give it away for free without attaching any conditions, I can still consider it. If you want me to spend money to buy your aircraft carrier, no way!”
The faces of the two of them were ugly: "Why?"
We are not good enough to give away aircraft carriers for free without strings attached, right?
"Because your aircraft carrier is poisonous." Qin Tao said very directly: "If we buy it back, we need to remove those toxic substances and renovate it, which will cost a huge amount of money. The modification cost is several times that of the Kiev. If we spend money to buy it, Your aircraft carrier is as stupid as Dazhou Company, and it will definitely lose money in the end!"
Qin Tao gave the two of them another look: "For you, giving the aircraft carrier away for free is actually not a disadvantage. If you dismantle it yourself and dispose of the harmful materials, it will cost a lot of money."
It’s almost like giving it away for free, it’s not worth a dime!
The two people's faces turned pale, and Phillip's lips began to tremble: "Mr. Qin, is this the attitude you use to do business?"
"It depends on who you are with." Qin Tao said: "If you are with the person who plotted against me, this method is already very good. After all, you are not asked to jump into the sea. By the way, park in front. You can go down. Go back and think about it. Think about it and come back once you’ve decided.”
The two people got out of the car and stayed on the roadside.
“Mr. Qin, is this appropriate?”
“What’s wrong with it? Do you still want me to spend money?”
“No, I mean, the place where we parked just now is on a newly built road in Pudong, and there are no taxis at all.”
“Okay, let them walk back and think about it as they go.”
Qin Tao looked leisurely and contented.
“Mr. Qin, you are very happy every time you tease someone.”
"Drive your car well, don't talk nonsense, and pay attention to your duties as a secretary!" Qin Tao glanced at Xu Zhengyang dissatisfied: "Why am I making fun of people? Am I happy for this?"
This secretary is unqualified and doesn’t even know what he is thinking!
What Qin Tao was thinking was, of course, that his plan had succeeded!
The establishment of the Kiev Aircraft Carrier Park has allowed everyone outside the world to see that the Mingzhou Group keeps its word. If they say they want to buy it back and transform it into an aircraft carrier park, they will really transform it into an aircraft carrier park!
Yesterday, not only the French, but also people from other countries stepped onto the Kiev aircraft carrier park and took a closer look inside. The hangar below the deck has been divided into various Once a consumption place is renovated in this way, it is almost impossible to restore it. Otherwise, the project will be quite large.
So, the Kiev is an aircraft carrier park, and it will always be.
What about the next scene? Of course it is!
In this way, the resistance to the subsequent purchase of the Varyag will be much smaller!
In order to purchase the Varyag, Qin Tao has really laid the groundwork and invested a lot of money. However, there is no need to worry. The profitability of the aircraft carrier park is very strong, and this investment will be earned back sooner or later.
So far, Qin Tao has not done any loss-making business.
Qin Tao looked out the window. In order to talk to the French, the car made a big circle. At this time, they were driving on the road in Pudong. Countless tower cranes were standing there. Countless high-rise buildings were rising from the ground. There were almost One day is the same.
The development of the motherland is changing with each passing day. The country's economic strength is getting stronger and stronger, and the navy's funds will become more and more abundant. With technology and funds, the days of naval warships will come.
Qin Tao looked out the window and picked up a newspaper in the car. For him, this was just a boring pastime. However, when he saw the contents of the newspaper, his face suddenly turned pale. It becomes ugly to look at.
"You clown, how dare you come to vilify us?" Qin Tao said with a sneer on his lips: "They are tired of living!"
"Yes, the last time Pu Douxuan came to make trouble at the departure ceremony of our aircraft carrier park, other media organizations conducted objective and fair reports. Only this own Times is vilifying us and saying that we are doing unfair things to Dazhou Company. Competition, we use abnormal means to suppress competitors in international affairs, and we also categorically say that the Kiev can become an aircraft carrier at any time."
Qin Tao glanced at Xu Zhengyang, and then smiled.
This newspaper must have been placed in the car by Xu Zhengyang and deliberately let Qin Tao see it. The moment Qin Tao got it, he was a little angry, but after a while, he knew what was going on.
"President Qin, we have to fight back with public opinion this time!" Xu Zhengyang knew that Qin Tao had guessed his intention, but he was not embarrassed and continued to express his views.
"Of course." Qin Tao said: "Contact the above, I want to meet with Zhang Zhong. His next program will definitely be very exciting!"
Qin Tao had already conceived this plan, but due to various concerns at the time, it was not implemented. Now, since these clowns have taken the initiative to provoke, what else can Qin Tao say?
Of course I have to fight back!
“Also, please ask our people on the secret front to keep an eye on certain people and get a few key tapes.”
