Thirty Entrepreneurship: Recycling of second-hand aircraft carriers at the beginning

Chapter 418 Boss Lin, the service is becoming more and more humane

Lin Chen went directly to where the vehicles were stored.

There, rows of tanks are parked neatly. Compared with the previously repaired US M1A1 main battle tanks, these tanks appear more rounded in appearance, but also reveal a sense of age.

Most of these tanks are on the verge of retirement, some only need simple maintenance, while others require in-depth repairs.

The conditions of each tank are different, and Lin Chen needs to make targeted additions and modifications based on a full understanding of them.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and said to the system: "System, scan the status of these tanks."

The system responded quickly: "OK, master."

After a while, the scan results came out: "Type 58 main battle tanks, two need repair, eight need maintenance."

Lin Chen nodded, and understood: "It seems that the situation is not bad, and it is not completely scrapped."

Next, Lin Chen began to consider the maintenance technology. Different models of tanks naturally have different maintenance technologies.

Fortunately, he had purchased some tank maintenance technology before, so this time he only needed to make additional purchases of Type 58 tanks.

The system quickly responded: "Purchasing the maintenance, repair technology and related parts of the Type 58 tank will cost 8 million yuan. Are you sure?"

Lin Chen frowned, thinking that the price was a bit high. He thought for a while and asked, "If we modify it directly on the existing basis, can we save some maintenance costs?"

The system replied: "Yes, Master. Please tell me the category of modification you need and I can give you a quote."

Lin Chen already had a preliminary modification plan in mind, but it needed further refinement. He decided to first select a tank in good condition for modification test, so as to better understand the details and problems in the modification process. He chose a tank that only needed simple maintenance and was in good overall condition.

In the following period of time, Lin Chen began to carefully consider the details of the modification.

First, he decided to modify the appearance of the tank, using a camouflage color that had been tested many times to improve its concealment.

In terms of weapon systems, he plans to replace the original 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun with a 14.5mm commander's anti-aircraft machine gun to enhance its attack power.

In addition, the automatic loader is also an essential equipment, and he will ensure that this system is installed perfectly.

In terms of the protection system, Lin Chen encountered a problem. He knew that the thickness of the armor was proportional to the bulletproof performance, but too thick armor would increase the weight of the tank and affect its flexibility.

This is a technical problem that all countries are trying to overcome. Lin Chen thought for a while and decided to ask the system for help: "System, is there any armored equipment that is both lightweight and has good defensive performance?"

The system quickly listed several armor materials with excellent performance for Lin Chen to choose from.

After carefully comparing their materials, defensive capabilities and weights, Lin Chen set his sights on a nano-wave density material worth three and a half million dollars.

The weight of this material is nearly half that of the existing Type 2A material, and its defensive capabilities are also quite outstanding.

Although it is expensive, considering its cost-effectiveness and modification needs, Lin Chen thinks it is still worth a try.

In order to ensure that the modification effect meets expectations, Lin Chen asked the system to provide a rendering.

The system quickly generated a 360-degree panoramic rendering, showing the overall appearance and various equipment of the modified tank.

After a careful inspection, Lin Chen was satisfied with the renderings and decided to use this armor material for the modification.

Next, Lin Chen began to discuss the specific price and details of the modification with the system.

The system gave a quote of five million per car, a total of fifty million for ten cars.

Lin Chen felt that although the price was high, considering the new materials and advanced technologies used in the modification, he still felt that it was worth the money.

However, the cost of this modification was not entirely borne by Lin Chen himself. He decided to communicate with Fang Weihai first to see if the other party was satisfied with the modification plan and quotation.

So he called Fang Weihai and sent him the preliminary renderings and quotation.

Fang Weihai received the renderings and quotation very quickly. After carefully checking them, he praised Lin Chen's modification plan and renderings: "Boss Lin is great! Business is becoming more and more humane now."

Lin Chen responded with a smile: "This is also to improve service quality and make customers more satisfied."

Fang Weihai also approved the quotation: "I have read the quotation, it is OK. I will ask the finance department to transfer the money to you as soon as possible, please check it."

Lin Chen was delighted, knowing that this modification work had received the full support of Fang Weihai.

For Lin Chen, this modification work is not only a technical challenge, but also an innovation in service model.

By providing renderings and quotations, he allows customers to clearly understand the modification effects and costs before the modification, thereby improving customer satisfaction and trust.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Lin Chen received a notification on his phone indicating that the transfer had been received.

He quickly checked the amount, then sent a message to confirm the payment and officially started the modification work. "System, are you ready?" he asked softly.

"Stand by at all times, master." The system's voice was calm and mechanical.

Lin Chen transferred the money to the designated account without hesitation, "Let's do it!"

As he finished speaking, the system prompt sounded again: "The payment has been confirmed, and the relevant materials and technology have been sent to your device, please check." After that, the system fell silent again.

Soon, Lin Chen received all the materials and technical guidelines required for this modification. He looked around and saw ten tanks parked quietly on the grass. Apart from these cold steel behemoths, he was the only one busy in this green space. This is the equipment department site of the Western Theater Command, and his task is to modernize these tanks. After a period of hard work, the first Type 58 tank has been completely renewed and is exactly the same as the expected renderings. Lin Chen nodded with satisfaction, with a gleam of pride in his eyes. However, when he turned to other tanks that had not yet been modified, he couldn't help but sigh softly, "If it were in our own factory, the efficiency would definitely be higher."

Although one tank had been successfully modified, Lin Chen was not in a hurry to achieve success. He knew that quality was far more important than speed. As the technology became more sophisticated, the speed of modifying the remaining nine tanks would naturally increase gradually.

At this moment, An Ran quietly appeared in Lin Chen's sight. At first, Lin Chen didn't notice it, until An Ran got closer and closer, he noticed this uninvited guest. He straightened up, smiled and greeted: "Leader An, are you here to inspect the work?"

An Ran was amused by his words, and the slightly awkward atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. "I saw that you were very busy, so I didn't have the heart to disturb you. I didn't expect you could still take some time out from your busy schedule." She teased.

Lin Chen shrugged his shoulders. "It is indeed tiring to bend over and work for a long time. Proper rest is also necessary. I don't want to exhaust myself by showing off." Having said that, he sat down on the grass, enjoying the moment of tranquility and the fragrance of the grass.

An Ran also sat down, her eyes were attracted by the newly modified camouflage tank next to her. "Is this what the modified Type 58 looks like? It's really great!" She praised.

Lin Chen smiled proudly, "Of course, what do you think?" He took out his mobile phone and prepared to show An Ran the renderings of the modified version. "I haven't shown you this yet. After you see it, you will understand its function better."

An Ran took the phone and a 3D interface was displayed on the screen. Lin Chen spent yuan to upgrade the renderings for this demonstration. Watching An Ran slide her finger on the screen and the tank rotate and flip with her movements, Lin Chen felt a sense of accomplishment.

An Ran looked at it for a few minutes and then returned the phone to Lin Chen. Although she said "very good", her expression was a little complicated, as if she wanted to say something but was hesitant.

Lin Chen noticed her strangeness and asked with concern: "Do you have any ideas or suggestions with this expression? Just say it, I am happy to listen to customers' opinions."

An Ran smiled and said with emotion: "I just feel that everything is getting better and better, which really makes me happy. But I also feel that my progress is too slow and I need to work harder."

After hearing her words, Lin Chen couldn't help but admire her a little more. He encouraged her: "You have done a great job. You have completed every task so well. Believe in yourself, you will definitely be able to reach a higher level."

An Ran nodded, stood up and brushed off the dust on her pants. "You continue to be busy, I won't disturb you." She said.

Lin Chen also stood up and said, "Let's leave the rest of the work for later. Today's mission has been completed. It's time for me to go back."

An Ran looked at him in surprise, "Aren't you going to stay here? It's so troublesome to run back and forth every day."

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not used to living here. It's also nice to run back and forth every day." These were his true feelings.

Then he asked An Ran: "What have you been up to lately? Maybe I can help."

An Ran thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's about the upcoming assessment. I hope I can pass it smoothly and get better results."

Lin Chen looked at her firmly, "You can do it! You have carried out so many perfect missions, there will be no problem this time!" His words made An Ran smile with gratitude.

An Ran was about to dispatch a car to take Lin Chen back home. While waiting, Lin Chen saw a familiar license plate number. An Ran rolled down the window and waved to him, "Come on up, I'll take you."

Lin Chen got in the car and sat in the passenger seat. This time it was An Ran's turn to drive. After returning to Building 3 of Zui Weng Zhi Yi, Lin Chen collapsed directly on the sofa. It was getting late, and he decided not to go to the crew tonight. He picked up his phone and checked the news, enjoying this rare leisure time.

Not long after, the sound of the door lock turning attracted his attention. He turned around and saw Fang Lan and Deji walking in with smiles on their faces. They didn't seem to expect Lin Chen to be at home.

"Why didn't you tell me you were back?" Fang Lan asked.

"I'm afraid of disturbing your work." Lin Chen replied with a smile.

"What's so exciting?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

Fang Lan sat next to him excitedly, "Deji said that we will organize a party for each completed instance so that we can celebrate together!"

"That's a good idea!" Lin Chen agreed, "But I won't participate. It would feel weird if I go every time."

Deji stood aside and said, "Since Boss Lin has said so, we will listen to him. We won't call you then."

In the end, they decided according to Lin Chen's opinion. Next, they began to discuss what to eat for dinner.

The next day, when Lin Chen came to the crew again, everyone in the crew was talking about the party in the evening. At this time, Lin Chen realized that this copy was coming to an end. He suddenly thought of Anfia, a girl who didn't seem to have many roles.

Just as I was thinking about it, Anfia and another actress came over. They had already done their makeup and hair. Although Anfia was playing a mermaid, she was only wearing clothes on her upper body at the moment, and the jeans on her lower body made her long legs look even longer.

When Anfia saw Lin Chen, she greeted the people around her and walked over. "Boss Lin." She called softly.

Lin Chen smiled and responded: "Today is the final day of filming. How have you been on the set during this period?"

Anfia seems to have completely adapted to the life on the set. She said with emotion: "It's quite interesting. I have already told Deji that he must find me again if there is a suitable role in the future."

Lin Chen couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't expect you to be so versatile that you are even interested in this."

Anfia also smiled: "Boss Lin is really impressive. Although I know you are an investor, I didn't expect you to come to the crew every day."

Her words made Lin Chen sigh. Indeed, few investors would stay in the crew every day like him. He did this because he liked the lively atmosphere here and because he now had more free time and no longer had to wait in the store from nine to five to wait for business like before.

Lin Chen just smiled faintly at Anfia's praise and didn't respond much. At this time, a staff member came out of the room and shouted, "The mermaid scene is about to begin, come and get ready." Anfia responded and left in a hurry.

Although Anfia is not a big star or a focal figure in the circle, the fact that the staff calls her "mermaid" is already a respect for her. After all, such a situation is not uncommon in this crew.

Anfia stood up and waved to the man gently, indicating that she had received the information. Then she turned to look at Lin Chen and said softly:

"How about we attend the banquet tonight? We haven't had dinner together for a long time, so this is a good opportunity for us to get together."

Lin Chen shook his head gently and declined:
