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

Chapter 87, An Unexpected Encounter with the Director

Before dawn, the massive submarine crashed onto the beach, like a suicidal whale.

Then, scaffolding had already been prepared on the beach and was erected as soon as the submarine arrived.

After daybreak, a canopy appeared above the submarine, making it impossible to see anything from the sky.

"Remis, you've worked hard."

After finishing his work, Qin Chuan looked at the Russians standing on the beach: "I'll arrange your return trip. By the way, would you like to stay here for a few days?"

“We want to stay and help,” Remis said. “We are very familiar with this submarine and may be able to offer you a lot of advice.”

"Okay, thank you so much," Qin Chuan said. "I welcome you to stay. You'll each get fifty dollars a day, paid in full when you leave. And after you finish work each day, there will be unlimited drinks!"

"it is good!"

In the distance, Qin Jianguo, Li Runping, and the others stood there, eyes wide and mouths agape, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

submarine!

Neither of them knew the specific model or the difference between conventional and nuclear submarines. In short, when they saw this behemoth, they both had only one thought in their minds: Qin Chuan had tricked them again!

Qin Chuan said he was going to buy scrap iron last time, but ended up buying aircraft carrier steel plates instead. This time he said he was going abroad to buy power generation equipment, but ended up buying a submarine instead?

Where did this come from? Is it illegal?

At this moment, both of them were so shocked that they had completely stopped thinking.

"Dad, Dad, bring us breakfast! We're all starving!"

Just then, Qin Chuan shouted.

"Okay, okay, right away!"

"Boss, I'll go help." Antonina offered her assistance.

Qin Jianguo and Li Runping were both surprised to see such a blonde woman.

"Xiao Chuan, who is this?"

"I am Mr. Qin's secretary. I am responsible for taking care of Mr. Qin throughout the journey."

"Oh……"

Soon, the pancakes were served. The Russians had never eaten this breakfast before and were very curious.

After they finished eating, Qin Chuan greeted them, "Today, let's deal with the flammable materials inside first, vent the fuel, blow it out, and remove the soundproofing tiles on the outside, just in case anything goes wrong. You guys go to the back cabin, we'll go to the front cabin!"

Dismantling a submarine is physically demanding and dangerous. Not only do you have to worry about being hit by the dismantled submarine, but you also have to worry about the flammable materials inside, which could catch fire and explode at any time.

"it is good."

The Russians were familiar with the submarine's structure, making it very convenient to move.

That evening, a bonfire was lit on the beach, and meat skewers were grilled on it. The Russians ate meat and drank alcohol, and soon became completely drunk.

After arranging accommodation for the Russians, the person who had been secretly observing outside all day finally came over.

"Engineer Qin, you're amazing! You actually managed to get your hands on such a big machine, and the best part is, it only cost you a little over a million!"

"It's a pity," said Ma, the leader of the Qingdao naval base, with a smile. "It can't be joined our navy."

"Commander Ma, you should know that all equipment needs maintenance and spare parts. Even if this stuff ends up in the navy's hands, it will become a pile of scrap metal because there are no spare parts. What's more, all the valuable parts inside have been stolen. Are we going to spend a lot of effort to replenish all that equipment?"

Leader Ma nodded: "Yes! You're right. Military equipment is a system, and we have our own path."

"However, there are still quite a few good things inside. There is a torpedo in the forward compartment, which is acoustic homing. The Navy will take it away tonight! As for the various equipment inside, mark any that catch your eye. When we dismantle it, we will try not to damage the equipment."

Unlike other warships, submarines do not have an outfitting process. When welding the hull, all the equipment must be stuffed inside. Otherwise, leaving only the hatches for personnel access would make it impossible to install large equipment.

Similarly, when disassembling, it must be cut open first.

"it is good!"

Behind Ma, a group of experts strode over. After watching all day, they finally had the chance to touch and examine the Russian submarines, which would greatly benefit their own submarine design!

"Engineer Qin, are you really going to convert it into a nuclear power plant?"

A naval officer in his thirties said to Qin Chuan, "This is truly a brilliant idea!"

"Thank you for the compliment, but it's just to save money."

Qin Chuan said, "If we build a 30-megawatt thermal power plant, it will require an investment of at least tens of millions of RMB and a construction period of one or two years. Moreover, after it is completed, it will require a continuous supply of coal."

The construction cost is a one-time expense, but the subsequent usage costs are long-term!

Even if my third and fourth uncles own a coal mine, they still have to buy coal from there at market price, which is quite an expense!

What now?

One-time investment, seven-year usage, we'll talk again after seven years!

"That's right, it's quick, low-cost, and has low operating costs in the future. It's truly opening up a new way of utilizing waste!"

The other party continued, "Moreover, if it's made into a floating power station, it can be towed to the deep sea in case of danger, without affecting the land!"

The safety of nuclear power plants is the biggest concern. What if there is a leak?

Floating nuclear power plants at sea offer a new approach: if a leak does occur, simply tow it away!

"That's a good idea of ​​yours, buddy. What's your name?"

"My name is Zhang Zhong."

Zhang Zhong? The head of the Strategic Deception Bureau!

Qin Chuan's eyes widened immediately. He hadn't expected to run into him here. He immediately reached out and shook hands with him, saying, "Hello, Director."

"Huh? What did you call me?"

"Ahem, I heard, I heard you've seen the Melbourne before?"

"Yeah, I'm lucky. We happened to be at the Qingdao base this time, so I came to take a look at this submarine."

"Let's go up."

A group of people busied themselves inside the submarine, some conducting surveys, some taking notes, and others moving things, until they reluctantly left just before dawn.

The torpedoes and the like were already removed in the middle of the night.

After taking one last look at the outline of the submarine, everyone lingered, reluctant to leave.

"If only I could stay!"

"This is just the old Type 671. Don't be fooled by its intimidating appearance; its performance is mediocre. We'll wait for the right opportunity in the future..." Qin Chuan quickly stopped himself. Getting the Type 971 was no easy task.

"Engineer Qin, do you need help with making something even more advanced?"

"We'll talk about it when the opportunity arises."

At daybreak, the Russians woke up, ate breakfast, and went to the beach again.

Seeing that the submarine was exactly the same as yesterday, Remis finally breathed a sigh of relief. Why did he drink so much last night? He should have left someone here!

Qin Chuan climbed up the scaffolding, picked up a piece of chalk, and drew a line on the hull of the submarine.

"Bring me the gas cutter!"

The flames from the gas cutter were aimed at the submarine's hull, sparks flew, and a cut appeared in the hull.

Remis breathed a sigh of relief.
