"We need to argue before we can answer. Feng Zhibiao said solemnly.

I got a Mi-25 back from Chad, and I had to get two more projects.

Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin both had painful faces.

"We have too much money in our hands that we don't spend. You don't know the situation in China, and the further you go, the more prominent this kind of problem will become. Many units ran to ask for project autonomy and independent management rights......" When the two asked Xie Kai what he wanted to do, Xie Kai only threw out such a sentence.

It is known to all that there is no inequality.

404 now has too much money in hand, although it is not a good thing to do too many projects, these funds must not be given out and be harmed.

In order to accommodate other personnel who cannot be resettled, a special supervision team has been set up to prevent the subordinate units from using funds for entertainment.

Anyway, they don't need to run projects, and they don't need to run funds, except for customers who need to be entertained, other expenses are not much.

And the customer's expenses are also not too much, and the current customers are all old friends, and they are all generous.

The two were silent.

Xie Kai knew this, or did they say it.

"Then let's do it. By the way, Xie Kai, the Y-8 ordered before has been produced, you can take a time to take a look. Wang Guilin didn't mention this anymore.

"It's out of production, didn't my mother go to see it?" Xie Kai was a little surprised.

The production of the Y-8 business jet shows that the air-conditioning system and other technologies in the rear compartment of the Y-8 have been solved.

"She went to see it, and she wasn't very satisfied......"

"What's the situation?" Xie Kai was puzzled, the year was almost over, and he saw his wife once during the New Year.

Most of the time, the old lady is in Moscow and Ukraine, and the clothing business is doing very well, although it is only some low-end clothing exported to the Soviet Union, and the scale is large enough.

"The range is too low, and if you don't refuel on the way, the plane can't fly directly from China to Moscow, and it's too slow......," Wang said.

"And the interior layout......" Zheng Yucheng also added.

The Y-8 was originally a turboprop aircraft, and its speed could not be compared with that of a jet aircraft.

Xie Kai originally knew this, and when he bought this plane, it was not for enjoyment, it was an additional agreement to cooperate with Qin Fei.

A Y-8 tens of millions.

"Y-8C?" Xie Kai was a little unsure.

Zheng Yucheng and they don't know much about the specific situation, the plane is in the name of the garment factory under the base, and most of the equity of the garment factory is in the hands of Liu Xu.

"Then I'll go over and take a look, and it just so happens that the five Y-10s should also be put into the plan. "Zheng Yucheng, the old guy, got the Y-10 back, and then, he paid little attention.

The Y-10 is now applying for domestic airworthiness permits, and is also preparing to apply for airworthiness permits from the EU and the United States.

Whatever, there's some work to be done anyway.

If you can't get it, you can also familiarize the domestic team with the process, and the Y-10 can't just sell it in China and Africa.

European and American civil aviation is the big market, and if you can't get their airworthiness license, it will be difficult to sell it.

Just like the Soviet Union's civil airliners, whether it is the Tu-154 or other civil airliners, it is impossible to get the airworthiness license of Europe and the United States, so even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the planes of Russia's domestic international flights are basically either Boeing planes or Airbus planes.

It is also very difficult for China's civil aviation aircraft to obtain airworthiness permits from Europe and the United States.

"By the way, Xie Kai, over there for the Y-10, why don't you hurry to place so many orders? Whether it is production capacity or technical performance, it is still improving. ”

Wang Guilin stopped Xie Kai when he left, and he knew what was going on with the order for the five Y-10s.

"No, the order of five aircraft is enough for the Civil Aviation Administration to speed up the process of issuing airworthiness permits, and at the same time, it can also prompt Qin Fei to speed up the construction of supporting production lines. Xie Kai shook his head.

The total price of five Y-10s is only $150 million.

In the future, it will not be easy to buy a large aircraft.

The Y-10 of 30 million dollars is not expensive, and with the change of the exchange rate, the equivalent of soft sister coins has exceeded 100 million.

Now the exchange rate has changed a lot, and the soft sister currency has depreciated a lot against the US dollar.

"In addition, after this time, before the New Year, don't look for me if there is nothing important, the final exam is coming soon, and it will be troublesome to fail the course at that time. ”

This time I came back to see the Mi-24, but I was disappointed.

As for the matter of armed helicopters in China, Zheng Yucheng naturally went to them, and Xie Kai has been grinding the retired Minister Shen to help them solve the engine technology again.

Wang Guilin and the others have looked for Minister Shen many times, and even the person in charge of 132 and 611 has come to Minister Shen every time they have a meeting.

However, the old man has always disagreed on the grounds that he is retired, and his major is not right, so he is not suitable for such a thing.

When Xie Kai and Mo Qi were in the capital, they went to the retired Minister Shen's house almost every weekend, and the old man was actually very busy, and he had a lot of things to do after retirement, so Xie Kai and Mo Qi followed him as assistants.

If the old man was at home, Xie Kai would accompany the old man to play chess and drink tea, and listen to him talk about the industrial situation in the country, while Mo Qi would play the role of nanny......

The old man's family and health care doctors were very dissatisfied.

Anyway, Xie Kai was consumed.

It just so happened that the old man's side was loosened, but he was called back by Zheng Yucheng and them.

The Y-10 has reached a safe service life again, and the new one has a lot of improvements, plus the installation of a domestic turbofan-8 as a power system, which requires a lot of experiments, Xie Kai dares to sit, and Zheng Yucheng and others dare not let him sit.

At the same time, it is necessary to test the turbofan-6A, which was originally a modification of the transport aircraft Y-9, which was dismounted after only one year.

Fortunately, now a lot of material replenishment of the special brigade is coming by air.

Riding on the -8 again, Xie Kai became more and more disgusted with this thing.

After two consecutive transfers, Xie Kai and Mo Qi arrived at Qin Fei in the evening of the same day.

When he got here, he was already familiar with the way, Xie Kai didn't go to Qin Fei's people, but first found Vice President Cheng from time to time who stayed here.

Now the Y-10 has spawned several projects, and some core project research and development has gradually shifted back to 404, but there is production here, and some experiments have to be done here, so naturally someone has to be in charge.

"Why are you here?" When Xie Kai met Mr. Cheng, the deputy chief engineer, who was still young, was looking at it seriously in a pile of drawings.

Inside the office, there are stacks of very tall drawings everywhere, and if you don't know, you think this is a reference room, not a boss's office.

"Passing by here, stop by to have a look. How did you turn your office into a design room?" Xie Kai was a little puzzled.

It stands to reason that there shouldn't be so many drawings here.

"This is the previous design drawing, there are many problems, I will take a look here, and I will ship it back in two days. Mr. Cheng explained with a smile.

Xie Kai looked at it, but the drawings were relatively old.

This is the original design of the Y-10.

"Mr. Cheng, don't be busy first, it's also dinner time, let's go to dinner together, and talk to you about something." Xie Kai saw that Cheng didn't put down his work from time to time because he came, so he could only speak.

"You asked about the mass production of the Y-10?"

"There are some, and there are some things related to Qin Fei's side, you have been here all the time, and you know the situation better. Xie Kai nodded.

There are a lot of things to know, so you have to have plenty of time.

At noon, both of them were waiting for the plane at the military airport and did not eat much.

Cheng knew from time to time that Xie Kai would not just be curious to know some things when he came to him, but he finished the work at hand first, cleaned up, and then went to the cafeteria with Xie Kai.

"The biggest problem with the turbofan-8 now is that the service life is not high, and there is no problem with the power performance, if it is exported, I suggest that the JT3D engine can be imported from the United States first. "The food hasn't come up yet, Xie Kai hasn't opened his mouth yet, and Cheng has spoken from time to time.

Five Y-10s, quite a few of them.

However, at present, the economy of the engine is not very good because of the service life, and the cost is too high for civil airliners.

"JT3D isn't a great fit either. Of these five planes, two are used as transport planes, and the other three are made into business planes, and the cabin must be well arranged......" Xie Kai looked at Cheng and said from time to time.

The latter was a little puzzled and didn't understand what Xie Kai meant.

"The Y-10 is to be used as a civil aviation passenger aircraft, and it is indeed not very suitable because of engine problems. If it is a business jet, take-offs and landings are not as frequent...... Of course, we can also introduce the JT3D engine for emergency response first. Xie Kai said his thoughts.

If there is no order for the Y-10, the progress of both design modification and production will be delayed.

At the beginning of the three, Xie Kai originally thought that he had the idea of selling the plane to the king of the ship when he had a brief meeting with the king of the ship.

If the king of ships wants to engage in air transportation, it is definitely not too suitable.

Well, business jets, that's still good.

Usually, these local tyrants don't fly around by private jet every day.

For local tyrants who can afford to buy a private jet, the cost or anything is not so important.

"Business jets?"

"That is, the internal layout is changed, and everything else is not moved. Xie Kai nodded and said.

The specific situation has to be figured out by the designer.

"Just like the Y-8 that the base ordered? They seem to be still working on the interior, and the interior needs to be improved a lot. Cheng understood a little from time to time.

Xie Kai and his team ordered a Y-8 from Qin Fei in order to sell the backlog of workwear in the garment factory, which was the first civilian order for the Y-8.

"That plane's range has been shortened a lot?" Xie Kai wondered about this.

If Qin Fei were asked, they would definitely not tell the truth.
