Dismantling the Chinook
Chapter 2816 Dismantling the Chinook
Outside the warehouse.
When Yang Xiaotao and Wang Dahai arrived, the area was already under martial law.
Because Yang Zhi and others were escorting the computer away, Yang Xiaotao asked Guo Liang from the Dengzhou Nuclear Power Plant to bring people over to help.
In addition, Liu Dehui from the car factory also led a team to come. A director from the local machinery factory also came. It wasn't that the factory leaders didn't want to come, but that they were not allowed to come.
The fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better.
Moreover, those who come must sign a confidentiality agreement, and Yang Xiaotao will also ask the relevant departments to keep an eye on things after he returns.
The two quickly approached, and Liu Dehui and Guo Liang immediately came to greet them.
"Minister Yang."
"Minister Yang!"
The two greeted each other, and Yang Xiaotao reached out to shake their hands, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work. As long as Director Yang says the word, everyone in the car factory will go all out."
Liu Dehui spoke earnestly and confidently.
Take Yang Xiaotao's kindness to their automobile factory, for example. From the earliest Yellow River heavy truck to the later Optimus heavy truck, both trucks were made with Yang Xiaotao's help.
It was these two trucks that established Quancheng Automobile Factory's leading position in the domestic truck market, a position that remains unchallenged to this day.
Now, they have even established a joint venture with Persia, and the Great Wall Motors they manufacture are sold overseas. The daily orders are piling up on their desks.
From then on, it became the leader in China's automobile manufacturing industry.
The liberation and Shanghai that they looked up to back then have now been left behind, and the gap is getting wider and wider.
Similarly, his career also rose accordingly, and in two years he would even be able to go to Beijing himself.
By then, he was determined to go to the Ninth Division.
Because the Nine Departments are his blessed land.
Upon learning of the mission, there was no need to think twice.
I've never suffered a loss following Yang Xiaotao.
"Minister Yang, this is the work recorder, Ji Changshun!"
"He's a newly recruited Grade 8 worker at our car factory, and this time the team is led by a worker who's also on duty!"
As Liu Dehui stepped aside, a middle-aged man of medium height and slender build immediately stepped forward.
"Director Yang, hello, I am Ji Changshun. I am very happy to see you."
"Just say the word, and we'll definitely do it!"
Yang Xiaotao extended his hand, "Okay, then I'll trouble you!"
"Minister Yang, this is Wang Han, Director Wang, from Dengzhou Machinery Factory!"
Wang Dahai continued his introduction from the side, and Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and extended his hand.
Wang Han immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Director Yang, hello!"
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "This time, comrades will have to work hard!"
"It's not hard work at all. When we heard it was your task, we all rushed to do it."
"The workers we brought this time are the best workers in our factory."
Yang Xiaotao nodded easily and then walked into the warehouse.
As the group entered the warehouse, the door behind them closed, and the lights flickered on, illuminating the center of the warehouse.
A group of people stood nervously not far away, all their eyes fixed on Yang Xiaotao.
Yang Xiaotao took a few steps to the helicopter and looked at everyone with a serious expression.
"Comrades, thank you all for coming here. I, Yang Xiaotao, thank you all."
Papapa
The crowd applauded, but Yang Xiaotao waved his hand to stop them.
"Time is of the essence, so I won't say anything more."
"We just need to know that everything we are doing here today is for the revolution, and for our country to become stronger."
"Therefore, I need everyone's full cooperation."
"At the same time, we must keep this matter to ourselves."
"Do you understand?"
"understand!"
Everyone kept their voices down, but they were incredibly excited.
Yang Xiaotao glanced down at the time: 9:06 PM, about nine hours before dawn.
Three extra hours.
However, time still needs to be allowed to assemble the helicopter.
This is quite a challenge for everyone.
After all, it's easy to take it apart, but difficult to put it back together.
Therefore, I have to do this myself.
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and then began assigning tasks.
"Director Guo."
Guo Liang immediately stepped forward, "Minister Yang."
"You know how I used to categorize and classify things, right?"
Guo Liang nodded.
"You take the people from the car factory and divide the area according to that method."
"Understood, Commander Yang!"
Guo Liang immediately went to the old reporter's side and began to explain the arrangements.
"Director Wang!"
Wang Han nodded, "Minister Yang, please give your instructions."
"I want my comrades to draw up the parts as soon as possible and measure every single data point."
"Including weight, size, structural features, etc."
"Yes, understand!"
Wang Han didn't say much, but simply asked his colleagues to start preparing.
Yang Xiaotao then looked at Wang Dahai, "Brother Wang, you have to keep an eye on that side. If anything happens, you must stop it."
Wang Dahai had drunk quite a bit tonight, but after Yang Xiaotao's words, he immediately broke out in a light sweat, and even the smell of alcohol dissipated.
"Don't worry, I'll be keeping watch at the entrance of the building tonight."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, then looked at the helicopter being pushed in.
“Minister Yang, the helicopter’s wheels don’t have brakes, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to push it in.”
"But this portion is really heavy."
Guo Liang sighed from the side, and Yang Xiaotao nodded, then took off his cotton coat, revealing the shirt underneath. He picked up a mask and put it on, then put on a head cover, shoe covers, and gloves. The others followed suit.
In no time, the entire warehouse was filled with fully armed people.
"Comrades!"
"We only have one chance; there's no turning back!"
After saying that, he turned to Guo Liang and said, "Open the door!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man appeared from the side, holding two wires in his hand. He fiddled with the cabin door lock for a while, and the cabin door was opened the next second.
Yang Xiaotao wasn't surprised; there are too many talented people these days, so it wasn't unexpected.
Yang Xiaotao opened the hatch, strode forward, and then looked into the cockpit.
At the same time, Xiao Wei flew out of Yang Xiaotao's pocket and began to examine the furnishings in the cabin.
As per Yang Xiaotao's request, the items in the cabin must be restored to their original state.
Xiao Wei was the main force behind the restoration.
There's nothing we can do about it; she's developed a knack for cleaning the house all the time.
Yang Xiaotao told Xiaowei to prepare, while he looked around inside the plane.
Before long, Yang Xiaotao understood why Dawson was able to fly the plane over.
The reason is simple: it's a retired helicopter. In other words, it's a civilian version with its military systems removed.
If it were a military version, Dawson probably wouldn't be able to get his hands on it.
Seeing Yang Xiaotao standing there in a daze, Guo Liang immediately stepped forward and asked, "Director Yang?"
"fine!"
Yang Xiaotao realized what was happening and then laughed, "I originally thought it was a military version, but I didn't expect it to be a second-hand aircraft with the military systems removed."
Upon hearing this, Guo Liang immediately looked at the furnishings inside the plane. Some areas were empty, which must have been military equipment.
"So, Director Yang, shall we continue?"
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, "Yes, we absolutely have to!"
"Don't be fooled by the fact that it's a civilian helicopter; the most important thing about this helicopter is still its hardware."
"Take these two propellers for example. There's a lot to learn about them, especially the materials and design. That's something we need to study."
"Furthermore, this drive shaft allows the two propellers to work together, which involves a high level of technology."
"And this engine is different from our diesel engines. If we can master the engine technology, we can use it on other helicopters as well."
As he spoke, Yang Xiaotao looked at the Chinook heavy transport helicopter in front of him, his eyes shining.
"By mastering these technologies, we can close the gap of at least twenty years in the helicopter field."
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Guo Liang, Liu Dehui, Ji Changshun, and the others were all stunned and opened their mouths in shock by the last sentence.
The people around were also shocked as they stared at the helicopter in front of them.
No one questioned the correctness of Yang Xiaotao's words, because everyone present knew one thing: Yang Xiaotao was ahead of them.
Since they couldn't reach Yang Xiaotao's level, they could only make judgments based on Yang Xiaotao's observations.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xiaotao reached out and touched the cold metal, then his eyes sharpened.
"Someone come quick and take a picture!"
"Old Liu, arrange for someone to develop it immediately and restore it."
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"
Liu Dehui responded and immediately arranged for people to start taking photos.
"Also, be careful with the things and clutter inside, don't make a mess of it."
Liu Dehui nodded, "Don't worry, Director Yang, we'll store it like a separate house, arranged in front, back, left, and right order."
"it is good!"
Yang Xiaotao said something, then said, "Put in the oil!"
"Yes!"
Ji Changshun, who was standing to the side, immediately waved his hand, and two young men stepped forward with the oil drums and pipes.
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the overall outline of the helicopter again, then picked up a pen and paper and began to take notes.
On the other side, Guo Liang and his nine men had already divided the area, and the people in charge of taking photos had finished their work. Liu Dehui personally arranged for people to develop the photos.
Yang Xiaotao looked around at everyone and then said, "Let's get started!"
After saying that, he picked up the screwdriver that had been prepared and went to get to work.
Four Nine Cities.
Old Chen stood by the window, gazing at the cold night sky, his mind filled with worries.
Behind him, Secretary Guo looked at the documents in his hand, but his eyes were watching for changes in Old Chen's expression.
Ever since receiving the call from Dengzhou in the afternoon, Old Chen has looked preoccupied. He didn't eat dinner and just stayed in his office.
As darkness fell, he became even more restless and stood by the window for an hour straight.
Looking down at the documents, Secretary Guo wondered what could be causing Old Chen such worry.
The Ministry of Machine Building's tunnel boring machine production?
You've already made preparations for this year's New Year, haven't you?
Moreover, the First Ministry of Machine Building itself is strong and financially capable, so the production of new tunnel boring machines should not be a problem.
Besides, with Yang Xiaotao's support from the Ninth Division, the tunnel boring machine from the First Ministry of Machinery Industry wouldn't affect Old Chen's mood.
The nuclear power plant of the Second Ministry of Machine Building?
That shouldn't be the case. With the injection of funds from the Ninth Ministry, the Second Ministry of Machine Building is not short of money, so it has nothing to lack.
They have the manpower and the equipment; the last nuclear power plant almost came to fruition. This time, with better options and further support, there shouldn't be any worries for Mr. Chen.
Third Ministry of Machine Building?
That's possible, but it would only be a minor incident, and the helicopters developed by the Third Ministry of Machinery Industry should be fine.
It's not worth it for Old Chen.
Fourth Ministry of Machine Building
Secretary Guo mentally reviewed several potential troublesome projects one by one, and after counting them all, he finally settled on the Ninth Department.
Or rather, it lies with Yang Xiaotao.
After all, the most troublemakers might not necessarily attract Old Chen's attention.
On the contrary, what you trust most is often what you worry about.
Moreover, although Yang Xiaotao didn't explain clearly in the phone call yesterday, he must have gone to Dengzhou to receive the batch of supplies from the United States.
Thinking about it this way, the time and the people involved all match up.
It seems that Old Chen is worried about the transaction in Dengzhou.
Thinking of this, Secretary Guo gently put down the document, then opened the door, went outside, picked up the phone, and called Department Nine.
Although it's already dark, there are people on duty in the Ninth Department, and Secretary Li of the Ninth Department lives in his office, so you can't go wrong by looking for him.
The phone rang for a moment, and Li Hongfeng's voice came through. Secretary Guo immediately explained the purpose of the call.
After Li Hongfeng finished speaking, Secretary Guo showed a happy expression, then exchanged a few polite words and hung up the phone.
Back in the office, Secretary Guo picked up the thermos and poured Old Chen a glass of water. He then went to the window and said softly, "Sir, please have some water."
Old Chen shook his head gently and remained silent.
Upon hearing this, Secretary Guo recounted the contents of the phone call.
"Sir, I just asked the Ninth Department, and their computers have safely arrived at the Ninth Department headquarters and are currently being stored. There shouldn't be any problems now."
After Secretary Guo finished speaking, he looked at Old Chen's expression, but Old Chen only nodded slightly and did not react much.
This left Secretary Guo somewhat puzzled, so he tentatively asked again, "Sir, are you worried about Commander Yang?"
"Should I call him and ask?"
Old Chen finally reacted, then turned around and walked to the table, but gently shook his head, "No need, don't bother him."
Secretary Guo was taken aback, and became even more certain that Old Chen's condition was related to Yang Xiaotao.
But the computers have been brought back, and the docks have started unloading cargo. What else could happen?
Is it possible?
Secretary Guo thought of a possibility: if there was anything else going on now, it could only be related to cooperation with the United States.
Could there be another meaning behind this meeting?
Just as Secretary Guo was pondering, Old Chen took a deep breath and said, "Little Guo, you should go back and rest first."
Secretary Guo realized what was happening and immediately nodded, "Yes, sir. Please take care of yourself."
Old Chen nodded and waved his hand, and Secretary Guo immediately turned and left.
One should have self-awareness.
Since Old Chen had taken the initiative to speak, he naturally had to be sensible.
Moreover, having been by Elder Chen's side for so long, he wouldn't leave unless it was something extremely important.
And today is likely to be a very important day.
Moreover, he was certain that this matter was related to Yang Xiaotao.
Secretary Guo closed the door. Inside the office, Old Chen took a pen from the pen holder and casually twirled it in his palm, recalling what Yang Xiaotao had said to him on the phone.
"Boss, this is our opportunity, a chance for latecomers to catch up in the helicopter field."
"Sir, we don't currently have transport aircraft for missions in high-altitude areas. In case of an emergency, we'll have to rely on our soldiers on foot."
"Boss, this is a rare opportunity. Even if it's only a 50% chance, I'd still like to give it a try."
Yang Xiaotao's voice seemed to echo in his ears, but Old Chen's mind became extremely desolate.
He knew that once this matter was discovered, it would not only affect China's international image, but also its future attitude towards foreign countries.
This will also be a major blow to Yang Xiaotao.
It might even become a reason for some people to attack it.
If we want to save him, someone has to step forward.
this person.
Taking a deep breath, Mr. Chen put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and slowly closed his eyes.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
