The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 989: Fighter

Shi Lao left reluctantly.

Shi Lao can't afford to stay in the hotels around the air show.

Although the hotels here are not much more expensive than usual, for students, they are not willing to spend so much money on staying in a hotel.

Shi Lao took a bus to a rural area five kilometers away. It was a fishing village and the smell of the sea was overwhelming.

Living in a B&B, although it is called a B&B, it is actually an ordinary person’s home and the conditions are not good.

The advantage is that there is a place to live and it’s cheap.

Shi Lao took out a laptop computer, which was a reward for winning first place in a military competition during the military training for freshmen.

The latest laptop computer from Kinglong Computer is priced at tens of thousands of yuan on the market.

In recent years, with the development of computers, more and more computer brands have emerged.

Even for only 1500 yuan, you can buy a brand new computer.

However, China's high-end computers are still monopolized by Jinlong Computer. In other words, the high-end computer market in the world is monopolized by Jinlong Computer.

Kinglong Computer no longer makes low-end computers, but only mid-to-high-end computers.

Kinglong Computer has been the world's largest computer brand for more than fifteen years!
At its peak, Kinglong Computer’s production and shipments accounted for more than 70% of the global market!

Although later, restricted by some US regulations, Kinglong Computer faced great resistance and its production volume and shipment share declined year by year, it is still the world's largest computer brand so far.

Kinglong Computer's laptops are especially popular.

Take out a network card, plug it into the USB port, and you will be connected to the Internet immediately.

This is a mobile Internet service launched by China Mobile Group. You only need to activate the service and you can access the Internet in most areas, even in places without broadband.

Shi Lao opened the website and entered the military forum. The first one he opened was the Chinese Military Forum, which is the earliest military forum in China. It was founded in 1990 and was founded by a military enthusiast. It gathers the largest number of military enthusiasts in the country.

Everyone will learn about relevant military news here, including weapons and equipment, as well as opinions on some of the wars that have occurred.

If you write well, you can get rewards. Some military enthusiasts even charge a fee to read the full text.

Shi Lao is one of those who charge fees. He earns a living by writing some military review articles or military science articles.

When he was in his third year of high school, he earned 9 to 10 yuan a month in royalties. When he entered college, in September, his royalties exceeded yuan. This month, the royalties he received for October, the previous month, have officially exceeded yuan.

Shi Lao wrote the manuscript carefully and inserted some photos taken today. The first manuscript he was going to write today was to introduce what he saw and heard at the Zhuhai Air Show today.

Before I knew it, it was already early morning.

Shi Lao checked the article, corrected some typos, and straightened out the sentences. He read it again and submitted it only after he felt there were no problems.

The fee is actually very low, 3 cents per thousand words, so each person only pays 1.5 cents for his article.

After looking at the time, Shi Lao fell asleep.

In his dream, Shi Lao attacked the enemy with a Type 78 automatic rifle, fired a mortar, and drove a Type 80 main battle tank to smash an enemy tank with one shot.
Go!
Kill~~
For victory, fire at me~~!!
Ring ring ring~~
The alarm clock woke Shi Lao up from his sleep. He shuddered all over, then quickly got up and washed up. He bought a bottle of milk and bread at a convenience store on the road and quickly ate while waiting for the bus. He took the bus to the air show. He was not the first to arrive. When he arrived, there were already many people.

Shi Lao went straight to the China Southern Ordnance Group and came to the aviation exhibition area. The aviation exhibition area was divided into two parts, namely the civil aviation exhibition area and the military aviation exhibition area.

Of course, as an indoor exhibition area, there will naturally not be any airplanes displayed directly. The airplanes displayed are all models, but the weapons are real.

Arriving at the civil aviation exhibition area, the most attractive things here are the Y-13, Y-10 and "Ray Sculpture" helicopters. Shi Lao just took a look at them, took some photos, then took the relevant magazines and put them in his bag, and went to the military aviation exhibition area.

He is a military enthusiast and is not very interested in the civilian field. He is very interested in military weapons and equipment.

In this exhibition area, the planes are all models, and only the weapons are real.

The modified J-7, modified J-8, J-7 trainer, J-7A and Eagle advanced trainer aircraft all frequently appear in military forums.

What really excites Shi Lao is, of course, the models of the J-10 and J-11 fighter jets.

For military enthusiasts, most of them knew about the J-10 and J-11 fighter jets before the country officially announced their service and broadcast the documentary for the first time.

At the last Zhuhai Air Show, everyone was looking forward to seeing the J-10 and J-11 fighter jets, but to everyone's disappointment, these two advanced domestically-produced third-generation aircraft did not appear.

Now that they appear in the indoor exhibition area, it means that there will most likely be J-10 and J-11 fighter jets in the outdoor exhibition area.

Shi Lao saw that there were a lot of foreigners here. Unlike other exhibition areas where there were mostly blacks or Middle Eastern people, this exhibition area obviously had a lot of white people.

Shi Lao even suspected that many of these white people were intelligence personnel from various countries.

In military forums, stories about intelligence personnel of other countries are not uncommon.

There were even military enthusiasts who saw white people acting suspiciously while secretly watching Chengfei, and then called the national security hotline to arrest the people. Upon interrogation, they found out that they were intelligence officers from other countries.

Of course, maybe a country will take a fancy to a certain aircraft and want to purchase it!

After visiting the military aviation exhibition area with great interest, Shi Lao went to the exhibition area of ​​China Northern Ordnance Group.

Compared with the exhibition area of ​​China Southern Ordnance Group, the exhibition area of ​​China Northern Ordnance Group is not small in size, but its visitor flow is obviously insufficient.

As for firearms, they were Type 56 semi-automatic and some were improved models, but they obviously could not attract people's interest. Most of them were from African blacks or Latin America. In the artillery area, there was nothing that caught Shi Lao's eye.

In the tank and armored vehicle area, the modified Type 59 really made Shi Lao look at it with great interest.

There are two types of Type 59 modified models, one is for self-use and the other is for export.

This is the trump card of Northern Ordnance Industry Group's export. Because of its low price, it is very popular in developing countries.

China Southern Ordnance Industry Group and China Northern Ordnance Industry Group are two typical examples. One has advanced weapons but is relatively expensive; the other has weapons of average performance but is relatively cheap.

Any country in the world, no matter it is a poor country, an ordinary country or a developed country, as long as it comes to participate in the Zhuhai Air Show, it can always find weapons that it likes and that are suitable for its country.

However, unlike China Southern Ordnance Industry Group, China Northern Industries Group does not have an aviation or aerospace exhibition area.
