Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 524 I Bought This Ship

Jiang Chen and the others brought it to the guest house for about a week, and only got a piece of news from the reception staff here.The staff of the shipbreaking yard here have kindly sent this old and beautiful colonel away.After verifying the news, the people here breathed a sigh of relief and watched as the members of the inspection team prepared to go to the shipyard for inspection.

However, there was a change in this, that is, the shipyard was going to dismantle the ship immediately, so some members of the inspection team were not willing to let the members of the inspection team board the ship for inspection.Moreover, just after the old American colonel left, this kind of thing happened, and the impact was very bad.What's more, the shipyard is an agreement signed by individuals, that is, this ship is not allowed to be used for military purposes.This time the inspection team came, and there were also representatives of the military, which made the people in the shipyard very scared. If one sentence was requisitioned, it would definitely cause huge economic losses to the shipyard.Not only that, but if they don't abide by the contract, they will face high liquidated damages and loss of reputation, and then it is basically impossible for them to bid for other ship breaking projects in the future.

In fact, there is another one that was also caused by the atmosphere of this period, that is, this is one of the earliest areas of our reform and opening up.The opening up in the past few years has given people in this area a strong sense of money, and they think that making money comes first.Moreover, in this era, the country's strategic direction is also based on economic development as the first element, so in the face of huge losses and the sense of superiority gained through economic development, of course even the military dares or can refuse.

Of course, this is also related to the military's rigid way of doing things. It just sent a letter to the shipyard saying that it needs to conduct a field inspection.There was no detailed contact and discussion with the shipyard, so such a thing happened.So Jiang Chen and the others have been doing this for several days, and have never been able to get on the boat.

Considering the time constraints, because the experts who love to eat group are all temporarily dispatched, they still have other work to do at hand, so we can't delay it any longer.And there is another point, that is, a good agreement must be reached with the shipyard immediately, otherwise, if the shipyard starts dismantling, it will definitely be a loss to the success of the entire inspection.It must be known that once the shipyard dismantles the hull, the integrity of the entire ship will be destroyed. This time, the investigation researchers will lose a lot of information from the hull, which is definitely a huge loss for the entire scientific research project.

In order not to wait any longer, the inspection team absolutely gave up waiting and asked people from the southern theater to help them coordinate and communicate.So they decided to go to the shipyard in person to coordinate and discuss related issues with them.But because it is to coordinate and solve problems, not to investigate, there is no need to go to so many people.So Deputy Director Song, Deputy Minister Lin and the members of the inspection team held a meeting and decided to go to a few people to get in touch with them first, and then let everyone go after the negotiation is settled.In the end, the result above was that Deputy Director Song, Deputy Minister Lin, Mr. Feng, and Jiang Chen, and two or three entourages, including this 'bureau seat', drove towards the shipyard together.

When they arrived at the shipyard, they were greeted by the secretary of the shipyard and a deputy director of the shipyard. It is said that the director of the shipyard, the person in charge, is also the technical director of their shipyard. He is currently organizing and guiding the work, so they will receive Jiang Chen now. them.

Seeing that Jiang Chen and the others explained their intentions, the secretary now replied: "Both chiefs, experts, you know the actual situation of our factory. And this time we have also signed a related agreement with the seller. It is really difficult to ask us. Moreover, the above repeated orders emphasize that we must do a good job in economic development, and we are doing our best to implement it. If we agree with you, then the loss to our factory will be huge. At the same time, it will also have a negative impact on our shipyard internationally. I hope that comrades in the military can understand our suffering, and can we cancel this inspection trip?"

Here, Deputy Director Song and Deputy Minister Lin haven't spoken yet. Old Feng, an expert in naval equipment research who is sitting by the side, couldn't bear it anymore. He stood up and scolded: "Do you still look like a party member? Are you all being bullied by capitalism?" Ideology has been corrupted. You are full of interests and economy, so have you considered national interests and national defense needs? If there is no solid national defense, do you think you can develop so stably and rapidly? Internationally, you can still be like now Can you stand upright like this and not be bullied?"

At this time, the relatively young deputy factory director on the side smiled and said to Feng Lao with a strong accent: "Old Tongzi, if you don't want to be angry, it will be so big. We seem to discuss the four emotions, not like a grass frame. Now, everyone You are doing economic construction, how can there be so many dirty things to deal with, you can rest assured, let us wait for a few years, so that you can also get more military spending."

Seeing the deputy director speak to everyone in such an arrogant tone, Jiang Chen's anger rose in an instant.Isn't it just a shipyard? What's the big deal? What a big deal.So he stood up and looked at the two men and said: "Although the world is safe, forgetting to fight will be dangerous. Don't you know this truth? If we don't build national defense at ordinary times, once there is a war, what do we use to attack enemies outside the region?" .Yangcheng is a coastal city. In history, how many foreign enemies have sailed to the edge of Yangcheng to show off their power by relying on their strong ships and guns. How many people in Yangcheng died tragically under their gunfire, and how many factories died because of their force. Bankruptcy, even family ruin. It’s only been so many years, have you forgotten? What is the purpose of our navy development, and a lot of it is to protect the country. To be more specific, it’s not to protect places like Yangcheng, and no Invaded and trampled by foreign powers. Is the modern world peaceful? Not necessarily. In this case, you set a price, and I bought this ship, so that you don’t have to lose your money, and you don’t have to take risks. .”

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, everyone fell into deep thought, and everyone in the shipyard lowered their heads and stopped talking.At this moment, the door of the reception room opened suddenly, and a very energetic old man about 50 years old walked in from the outside. He walked into the room, looked at Jiang Chen and the others and said, "You don't need to buy, we will fully cooperate with you conducting research."

"Director, you,,," the deputy director sitting beside him immediately persuaded him when he heard what this man said.But just a few words later, he was interrupted by this person: "Don't say any more, this matter is settled like this, if there is a problem, I will take care of it."
