Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

The Audi sped down the street and soon spotted several motorcycles.

"Your riding skills are terrible, you're riding so slowly!"

Li Jianshe stepped on the gas and left them behind, speeding all the way to Princess Tomb, where a large courtyard appeared before him.

The yellow office building, like a temple, was very impressive, while the gray residential buildings were lit up with countless lights.

The guards at the gate stopped the car; even an Audi couldn't just drive in.

"We are from Laiyang Steel Plant to report to Leader Wang on the equipment projects produced by our plant."

The guard made a phone call inside and then let them through: "Leader Wang just got home. Go to his house. It's apartment 301, unit 1, building 3."

"it is good."

Fortunately, there was always some alcohol in the car's trunk. Qin Chuan had Li Jianshe carry two bottles of Moutai and two cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes. They went up to the third floor and were just about to knock on the door when a middle-aged man came out to greet them.

"Engineer Qin, we were just looking for you, but we didn't expect you to come on your own initiative!"

"Really? What do you want with me?"

"When will your boiler be ready? We're waiting!"

"Okay, I'll report the progress to you right away!"

"Come in, let's eat and talk. What gifts did you bring? You can take them with you when you leave!"

Wang Zhenhua was a little surprised by Qin Chuan's sudden visit, but he needed to consult with them about his project and it just so happened to be dinner time, so he invited Qin Chuan to his home to talk over dinner.

"Currently, our boiler replication work is proceeding in an orderly manner. It is expected that in a few more months, we will be able to complete the entire replication task. Comrade Yu Hongxin has done her best in this replication..." Qin Chuan said eloquently.

After the introduction was finished, Qin Chuan's face was full of anticipation: "Leader Wang, does our navy have any plans to build an aircraft carrier?"

This boiler is used on aircraft carriers, so Qin Chuan naturally made this connection.

"This is still under discussion. By the way, that old Russian Babich you brought back last time played a huge role in advancing our discussion work. However... there are no plans to build it at the moment. We want to see if we can use this boiler on our new destroyer once it's developed."

Destroyer!

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the navy could only prioritize the development of air, submarine and fast attack craft due to various reasons. However, this does not mean that the navy does not need large warships. The four types of warships purchased at the cost of several tons of gold are outdated. The navy still needs modern warships.

Therefore, through diligent research and tireless efforts, domestic technical personnel finally developed the Type 051 destroyer, which remains the mainstay of the navy.

At the time, there weren't many options, so the destroyers had to be equipped with heavy oil boilers. These boilers have high power output, and the Shanghai-made Type 051 destroyer once reached a speed of 37 knots during sea trials, earning it the nickname "Type 051 missile boat."

However, boilers are slow to start, requiring the water to boil before operation. During the First Sino-Japanese War, the war suffered a major loss due to the time wasted on boiler operation. The world's advanced power systems had long since transitioned to gas turbines, which could operate at full power from the moment the engine was started.

In the 1980s, with the opening of China's doors, the navy seized this rare opportunity to import the LM2500 gas turbine from the United States. This power system was the most advanced in the world and was used on almost half of the world's warships.

Thanks to the imported gas turbines, the Navy built the Type 052 destroyer. Two ships were built, namely No. 112 and No. 113. They are now star warships and frequently appear at important occasions.

However, after 89, the door to the West was closed, making it almost impossible to purchase advanced gas turbines from the West again.

Therefore, after the completion of the two Type 052 destroyers, the construction of subsequent destroyers could not continue due to the lack of ship propulsion. The development of destroyers in the Navy also suffered a major setback. Throughout the 1990s, only one ship, the Type 052 destroyer 167, was built.

Although the displacement was increased, the power system was changed back to a boiler, so the model number became 051B, which is equivalent to taking a step backward.

Construction of this warship began in 95, and it is now 93, so it has only just entered the design phase. Since the aircraft carrier boiler already exists, the design unit has included this type of boiler in its considerations.

"Leader Wang, if it's a destroyer, a gas turbine engine would be more suitable."

"Yes, we know that, but..."

Wang Zhenhua looked troubled. If there were a qualified gas turbine, who would want to use steam power! Last time, Qin Chuan brought over an M70 gas turbine, which the relevant units were overjoyed with. However, its power was too small. It was fine as a cruise engine, but the main engine needed to be more powerful!

"If the navy needs it, I do have a way..."

Qin Chuan accompanied Boss Wang, eating and drinking while explaining his upcoming plans, which made Boss Wang's eyes widen and he repeatedly admired him.

……

Convenience restaurant.

The sharp screech of motorcycle brakes rang out again. Yellow Hair and his men jumped off the motorcycle and rushed towards the restaurant entrance. Seeing the iron gate of the restaurant, they couldn't help but kick it a few times.

"Open the door!"

"Open the door quickly!"

"damn it!"

"Brother Hui, have we been scammed?"

"That's right, we've been tricked. Let's climb over the wall right now and go to Yang Xue's house!"

"You can't go there! Those guards' guns are loaded!"

Bang! Ptooey!

Huang Mao, also known as Wang Hui, kicked the door hard again, spat at the entrance, and gritted his teeth: "Go back first, we'll come here to ambush them at six o'clock tomorrow morning!"

"it is good!"

Wang Hui was seething with anger. The bayonet was still in Qin's hands; it had been stolen from his home. If it got lost...

That damned Engineer Qin, I'll catch him tomorrow and give him a good beating!

Driven by anger, Wang Hui floored the accelerator and sped along the road.

Back at the gray building compound in Gongzhufen, Wang Hui gripped his own door tightly.

Boom!

"Mom, Mom, I'm home... Dad, you're here too? Oh, there are guests..."

Wang Hui claimed he was going home to get money, but he didn't actually return. He just sent his men to borrow a thousand. He dared to steal the bayonet from home to play with, but he wouldn't dare steal money from home.

Therefore, he didn't know that his father, who was often busy until late at night, was actually at home, let alone that his father was entertaining guests for dinner.

There were two guests, both young men, who looked very familiar. Could it be...?

At that moment, Wang Hui gasped.

At this moment, Qin Chuan turned his head and looked at Wang Hui with a smile: "Kid, you're back?"

child?

Crack! A bolt from the blue struck Wang Hui's mind.

All the way, Wang Hui gritted his teeth, thinking about what he would do if he caught that guy surnamed Qin.

Now, Qin Chuan is right in front of him. Does he dare to take action?

Wang Hui felt a swaying sensation in front of his eyes.
