The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 908 The Ceiling of Hong Kong
Even if the land reclamation project is completed, Hong Kong's population limit will be 1200 million.

Unless larger areas of land are reclaimed from the sea.

This is obviously impossible because it is related to input and output.

In the future, Hong Kong's population will reach 1200 million, which will be the most densely populated place in the country.

Sometimes it's like this, your innate conditions determine the ceiling.

It is only now that the integration of Hong Kong and Shenzhen has begun to move from academia to politics and the general public, and more people are paying attention.

In a few years, some industries will no longer be suitable for Hong Kong.

For example, the motorcycle industry is truly unprofitable in Hong Kong.

There is also the automobile industry. By that time, the manufacturing industry will also be difficult, and more research institutes will be maintained.

This involves production costs.

Production costs determine profit margins and competitiveness.

Looking outside, the Port of Bolivia is still prosperous, or even more prosperous.

This is not only a seaport, but also a classic that cannot be missed. More than 40 buildings emit colorful, flashing and dancing lights and lasers to the rhythmic music, which is dazzling.

At this time, a grand fireworks show was being held outside. The high-rise buildings on both sides of the river participated in it, making the night sky particularly dazzling.

The secretary continued to report on other current situations in Hong Kong. As the newly promoted head of the Hong Kong secretarial department, Wu Qiang has done a lot of work now.

Wu Qiang not only needs to understand the affairs of Panshan Group's various companies in Hong Kong, but also needs to understand all aspects of Hong Kong. He needs to know Hong Kong very well and must be able to answer when Liu Tao asks.

Although being a secretary may seem simple, this job is actually not easy and requires very high abilities.

Especially in Panshan Group, the secretary's promotion path is determined by the fact that if you want to continue to move up, you must have very strong abilities.

The stronger your ability, the further you can go.

After graduating from Peking University, Wu Qiang joined Panshan Group. It took Wu Qiang nine years to get to where he is today.

If he wants to continue to move up, there are only two ways. One is to be transferred to the secretariat of the headquarters to serve as a leader, and the other is to go to the various companies of Panshan Group to serve as a leader.

Through Wu Qiang's report, Liu Tao had a clearer understanding of all aspects of Hong Kong.

He goes to Hong Kong about once or twice a year, but Hong Kong is a very important base of Panshan Group and its importance is self-evident.

This is a very important fulcrum for Panshan Group to go overseas and it is also the financial core.

Then, Liu Tao looked at the materials. The materials of each company were ready, waiting for Liu Tao to look at them.

Fly west.

The H-6K/S is currently undergoing its final ground taxiing test. As long as it can successfully pass this test, the H-6K/S will be able to make its maiden flight within the next few days.

The last taxi test is a high-speed taxi test that is full of risks. Generally, in a high-speed taxi test, the aircraft speed must reach the critical take-off speed to simulate the aircraft's take-off.

Therefore, for the H-6K/S, this high-speed taxiing test requires acceleration to more than kilometers per hour, and even the front landing gear has to be lifted up, taxi off the ground for a while, and then lowered and decelerated.

This process is full of danger because the speed is very fast. If the posture is slightly wrong, it is possible to slide off the runway.

As a strategic bomber defined by the Air Force, the Air Force has always been very concerned about the H-6K/S. The Air Force leaders also participated in the final ground taxiing test.

The test pilot entered the cockpit of the H-6K/S. For the H-6K/S, eight test pilots were specially selected, in groups of four.

As a highly modernized bomber, the H-6K/S actually only needs three crew members, but for the sake of safety, four crew members are used. This is also conducive to the training of pilots.

Soon, the test preparations were ready and the others left the tarmac and returned to the command and control room.

A tractor towed the H-6K/S onto the runway. This was done for safety reasons, after all, this was a new aircraft.

As the tractor left, the H-6K/S prepared to start taxiing.

The roar of the H-6K/S engine is much smaller than that of the previous H-6, and it sounds much more comfortable.

But the power is much stronger.

After obtaining permission to taxi, the crew began to step on the throttle and the H-6K/S began to taxi. The speed was not fast at the beginning, but its acceleration performance was good and it quickly accelerated.

The entire runway is 4000 meters long, enough for conducting various tests.

The experiment was very successful and many people couldn't help but cheer and applaud.

The next step is to prepare for a test flight at the right time and start preparations for the test flight.

The towing truck went over and towed the H-6K/S back to the apron, and the ground crew began to inspect the H-6K/S.

Airplanes are like this, they are extremely precious and every step must be very rigorous.

Especially the new ones!
After all, there is only one H-6K/S now!

Just a few days passed and the H-6K/S made its maiden flight.

The maiden flight ceremony was very grand, even more grand than the launch ceremony. A viewing platform was specially built for the maiden flight ceremony. There were colorful flags flying everywhere and the slogans were very inspiring.

There was even an important person coming this time, which is enough to show the importance the higher-ups attach to the H-6K/S strategic bomber.

When delivering his speech, the leader spoke highly of the H-6K/S, calling it a national weapon.

Of course, the above definition of the H-6K/S is a transitional strategic bomber designed to meet China's needs in the next to years, and approximately to aircraft will be needed.

A more powerful strategic bomber is needed.

After the leader's speech, the test pilot took an oath and then walked resolutely towards the H-6K/S with powerful steps. He then inspected the fuselage of the H-6K/S in accordance with regulations and entered the cockpit only after signing.

The ground crew then removed the boarding ladder, and with the help of the power truck, the engine of the H-6K/S was successfully started. The H-6K/S then arrived at the starting point of the runway under the towing of the tractor.

The technicians on the tractor saluted the crew and left the runway.

Next it was time for the H-6K/S to perform.

At this time, in the cockpit, the crew checked all the instruments and systems again. After confirming that they were all correct, they began to increase the throttle and let the H-6K/S accelerate on the runway.

The speed of the H-6K/S became faster and faster. Finally, when it reached the take-off speed, the H-6K/S lifted its front wheels, then smoothly lifted off the ground and completed the take-off.

Completing the takeoff means that half of the work of the first flight is done.

The next step is to wait until the H-6K/S successfully returns and lands, which will be the real success of the first flight.

Of course, this does not mean that the H-6K/S will land immediately. Instead, it will climb to an altitude of 8000 meters and start cruising flight, testing some test flight subjects while keeping in touch with the command center at any time.

For an aircraft like this to fly, a lot of preparation must be done in advance, otherwise an anti-aircraft missile might fly from below while you are flying.
