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

Chapter 439 Busy Fang Lan

Then he said to Lin Chen on the other end of the phone: "Then I'll go over first, muah~bye."

Just as Lin Chen was about to say "bye", there was a "beep" sound from the other end of the phone. He smiled helplessly, with a hint of doting and a little helplessness in that smile.

At this time, Lin Chen was already under the scorching sun. He started from the large square of the Qin Palace and walked towards the city gate. After leaving the city gate, there were some small buildings scattered on both sides, and behind the buildings was a parking lot.

Lin Chen turned to the left, where his car was parked. As he walked, he calculated in his mind the time Fang Weihai would take to get to the factory from the new district, and he should arrive later than him.

When he talked to Fang Weihai on the phone before, he only mentioned that the Northern Theater Command was going to modify the tanks, but did not discuss the specific details. After all, this matter was handled by a special liaison officer, Li Xue. Lin Chen planned to wait until Fang Weihai arrived before communicating with Li Xue in detail.

In Fang Weihai's car, Li Xue and Fang Weihai sat side by side in the back seat. This time, Li Xue seemed particularly energetic, without the sleepy feeling she had last time. She and Fang Weihai chatted about some matters related to the war zone, and before they knew it, the car had arrived at the gate of Lin Chen's factory.

From a distance, they saw a gray Hongqi HS9 quietly parked in the open space next to the factory gate. Lin Chen also happened to get off the car. It was not sure whether he had just arrived or got off after knowing Fang Weihai and the others had arrived. In fact, Lin Chen got off because of the latter.

He stood beside the car, facing the dazzling sunlight, a little dazed, so that for a moment he could not see clearly the situation of the car leading over. The car stopped steadily not far away, Fang Weihai did not let the driver open the door, but pushed the door and got out of the car directly.

Lin Chen walked over quickly and greeted him enthusiastically, "Leader Fang!"

Fang Weihai responded cheerfully: "Boss Lin, it's been a while since we last met."

Lin Chen smiled and continued, "This also shows that my business has been a bit bleak recently."

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. At this time, Li Xue also followed Fang Weihai out of the car. She walked around the front of the car and saw Lin Chen. The two people's eyes met in the air, and they smiled politely at each other.

Fang Weihai pointed at Li Xue and introduced her to Lin Chen: "I don't need to introduce her this time, right? You all met her last time. This is Li Xue, the liaison officer from the Northern Theater Command. She is responsible for communicating with you about the tank modification."

Li Xue took the initiative to extend her hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Boss Lin!"

Lin Chen also reached out his hand and shook hers. The soft and boneless touch was still the same as before. "Hello, Captain Lin." He responded politely.

Lin Chen pointed in the direction of the factory and said, "Let's drive the tank in first!" After all, the heavy truck that pulled the tank over had been parked nearby and waiting for a long time.

"Okay." Li Xue responded, and then gestured in the direction of the heavy trucks. Tanks drove into the factory in an orderly manner.

"We have brought a total of five tanks this time. Boss Lin, please take a look at how to modify them first. After these five tanks are modified, we may increase the number later." Li Xue seems more proactive and energetic when talking about work.

Fang Weihai also echoed: "I think these tanks seem to be old models."

"That's right, but this time we still want to modify it. After all, its overall performance is still very good." Li Xue explained.

Lin Chen walked over and took a closer look, confirming that it was a Z10 medium tank. As for its current specific situation, the system still needs to conduct an overall assessment.

"Do we have any ideas about the next modification direction? Or what tasks do you want it to perform?" Lin Chen's ability is obvious to all. He can turn something that runs on the ground into something that flies in the sky, and he can also make something that swims in the sea run on the ground. So no matter which direction, he is confident that he can do his best.

"It all depends on how well Boss Lin performs." Li Xue said and smiled. Everyone who heard this knew that it was just as she said, it all depended on Lin Chen's performance.

Lin Chen also smiled and nodded: "That's no problem." He said it very easily and affirmatively.

Li Xue looked at Lin Chen in front of her. After not seeing him for a while, she felt that Lin Chen had changed a little. If the previous Lin Chen was sunny and easy-going, then now he has added a bit of stability on this basis. In terms of weapon modification, he is different from before when he could only rely on the system to bless the attributes. Now Lin Chen has more independent requirements. The system will match the corresponding resources according to Lin Chen's requirements.

He approached one of the tanks and the system began scanning.

"Z10 medium tank requires maintenance and has minor damage." The system's voice sounded in Lin Chen's mind.

"Does the master have any special modification requirements for this tank?" the system asked.

Lin Chen looked at the tank carefully again, and then talked to the system in his mind: "Then let's change it into an amphibious tank and see what it needs and what the approximate price is."

"Ding, the system information has been uploaded, please check." The system's voice sounded again.

Lin Chen carefully looked at the information uploaded by the system and found that it was not difficult to convert the current tank into an amphibious tank. The price was 80 million.

"Sure." Lin Chen calculated in his heart. You know, an amphibious tank developed by the United States costs 150 million. And he only needs 80 million to modify the original tank.

After considering these factors, he walked around the tank and came in front of Fang Weihai and Li Xue. The two stood there waiting for Lin Chen to come back and continue communicating.

"The weapons distribution in the Northern Theater is usually dispatched from other theaters, right?" Lin Chen asked.

Li Xue nodded to indicate that it was true. She was a little confused as to why Lin Chen suddenly asked this question, but she did not ask. After all, it was Lin Chen's time to think and make a decision, so if she had any questions, she could wait until he finished asking. Lin Chen then said to her, "If that's the case, then I can turn it into an amphibious tank."

"Amphibious?" Li Xue was a little surprised to hear the word. She never thought that the modification of a tank would be so extensive. She had previously thought about improving the speed, tracks or shells, but she didn't know much more.

Fang Weihai stood there and looked at Lin Chen and Li Xue with a very understanding smile. He noticed the change in Li Xue's expression and thought that Li Xue and Lin Chen had not interacted with each other very often. With more time, she would not look at Lin Chen with such a surprised and puzzled expression and gaze.

"Yes, amphibious." Lin Chen looked back at the tank behind him and said, "Amphibious tanks are already a type of special tank. They can travel on rivers, lakes, and even shallow sea waters."

"I understand this." Li Xue said. What she wanted to know was why Lin Chen suddenly changed like this. He must have his own reasons.

Lin Chen did not try to guess what Li Xue was thinking, but continued to tell her his next plan: "Since the Northern Theater Command needs to dispatch them at that time, they can be used no matter which theater they are sent to, so changing them to amphibious tanks is undoubtedly the best choice."

Only then did Li Xue suddenly realize that from the very beginning, Lin Chen had been considering the issue of equipment deployment in the Northern Theater.

"Oh! Is that so?" Li Xue nodded in agreement. She also thought this modification method was quite good.

"If it is confirmed, the cost of officially modifying one car will be 80 million," said Lin Chen.

Li Xue did a quick calculation in her mind and confirmed that the price was within the range of the quotation she had made before this trip. So she readily agreed.

There was no need to call again to confirm. The next minute, Lin Chen's phone received a notification that the money had arrived. A total of five tanks and 400 million yuan in funds had been received.

Fang Weihai and Li Xue did not stay any longer. They were already very familiar with the next process, and when Lin Chen's modification was completed, he would have someone take it back directly.

After Lin Chen sent the people away, he returned to the factory. He saw that the five tanks were about to start the modification of the first one. At this moment, his stomach suddenly rumbled. He raised his wrist to check the time. It turned out that it was lunch time.

"Oh, I didn't expect time has slipped to this point." Lin Chen thought to himself, and when he looked up, the clock hands had quietly pointed to one o'clock in the afternoon.

Just now, he was completely unaware, and when Fang Weihai and Li Xue repeatedly invited him to dine together, he flatly refused. Who would have thought that time had quietly passed until this moment.

"Forget it, forget it. I'd better fill my stomach first so that I have the strength to work." Lin Chen muttered to himself, then closed the factory door and drove to the nearest place where he could solve the dining problem.

It was still the familiar noodle shop. The experience of the last visit was still vivid in his mind. This time, no one asked him to move his car, so he was able to enjoy his lunch in peace. After the meal, he quickly returned to the factory. He never liked to procrastinate at work. He was always used to finishing all the tasks in a short time, and then he could freely use the rest of the time.

Speaking of work, Lin Chen is facing a big challenge - the modification of an amphibious tank. There are many types of amphibious tanks, one of which needs to rely on its own buoyancy to float on the water, and also needs a set of independent propellers to move forward. But what is in front of him at this moment is a medium tank.

A medium tank cannot float on the water by buoyancy alone, it needs to add an intake pipe and an exhaust pipe to the engine. Fortunately, the system has prepared all the equipment needed to modify this tank, and also attached a thick stack of instructions.

This time the manual was much more detailed than the few pages of crude paper last time. After all, there were many parts, so there were naturally many places that needed detailed explanations. At this moment, the system's voice sounded again: "The owner had mastered the tank repair technology last time, but for this tank, those technologies are no longer sufficient, and a new technology package is needed."

"Technology and gift packages?" Lin Chen was a little surprised when he heard this. "So you want to buy one and get one free, and give me something else?"

"That's right. In addition to the amphibious tank modification technology you purchased, we will also give you aircraft carrier maintenance and repair technology for free." The system replied.

"I already had this technology. Aren't you deceiving consumers? Even if you don't spend any money, you shouldn't do this." Lin Chen raised the question.

The system quickly explained: "These are different technologies written by different authors, and the content has different focuses."

This answer made Lin Chen speechless for a moment. He shook his head helplessly and compromised: "Okay, then update the technical gift package quickly. I have to start working quickly."

The system's technical package was loading, and Lin Chen began to check the various devices that the system had provided, matching the instructions with the devices one by one. Conventional amphibious tanks are generally unable to go too deep underwater due to the limitations of the intake and exhaust pipes. But since Lin Chen decided to modify it, he naturally had to make a breakthrough in this regard.

However, when he saw that the system still provided traditional intake and exhaust pipes, he couldn't help but frown and quickly woke up the system: "Why did you give me such conventional amphibious tank modification equipment? Show me the interface that needs to be selected."

The system voice sounded: "The master needs to update the system so that it can search for new information for you while loading the technical gift package."

Lin Chen took a deep breath and raised his eyebrows. He wanted to complain. After all, he had already updated the system before. Why did he have to update it again this time? But at this moment, the system reminded him: "This time it's a free update..."

Hearing this, Lin Chen chose to click Update without hesitation. The update process was extremely fast. In just three seconds, the loaded technical gift package was completely loaded, and the system query information was also displayed.

Lin Chen was now doing two things at once, absorbing new technologies while checking out the updated types of amphibious tanks. He found that the one he had chosen was already the most advanced model, and the air intake and exhaust pipes were naturally somewhat different.

He studied it carefully and found that the air intake pipe could be partially extended, so that the tank could reach a deeper depth underwater. Lin Chen looked at the data and found that it could reach a depth of ten meters. In comparison, previous tanks could only go down to five or six meters deep, which was undoubtedly a huge improvement.

In this way, the tank can be hidden in the sea water, and even the antenna is not easy to be detected. Not only that, when the tank needs to continue to dive to a deeper place, it can temporarily stop the air intake work, and the tank can still run for an hour. Seeing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh: "This is just like holding your breath like a human!"
