Chapter 668: Communication with the Navy Begins
Uncle Zhang, I'm Zhang Lan," said Zhang Lan early in the morning on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, "Yes, yes, it's me." I don't know if it's convenient for you today, but we're going to visit you...... Yes, well, the other day about our plane, I really thank you Uncle Zhang for your help, where is it, not polite, I really appreciate you...... Well, if you're free today, we'll be right away...... Who else? Well, there's me, my sister, and my sister Alice...... Yes, just the three of us...... Well, thank you, Uncle Zhang. Good bye. ”
"It's done," Hanging up the phone, Zhang Lan smiled at Xiao Chenxi and Alice, "There is no problem on Zhang Dingjun's side, the commander of the North Sea Fleet joked that as long as we go over, as long as the superior leader does not let him go to Beijing for a meeting or there are any activities that he must participate in, he will have time at any time, let's go now." ”
This phone call was, of course, to Zhang Dingjun, commander of the North Sea Fleet, and since it had been decided to get some warships back from Lao Maozi, not to mention the government's side, the navy's side would definitely have to be put on the side. Moreover, when he was taking his Mi-26 ~ helicopter before, Zhang Dingjun had already vaguely expressed to himself through the major officer at that time that the navy wanted to be friendly with the Alice group and his family, and now he happened to take this opportunity to deepen the relationship with the navy -- how can he just make friends with the army? It's safer to put eggs in a few more baskets, after all, the east is not bright and the west is bright.
At the same time, Zhang Dingjun, the commander of the North Sea Fleet on the other end of the phone, also frowned and began to think: Alice, the boss of the Alice Group, actually wants to come in person? What exactly are they trying to do? Although he said that he was welcome, when Zhang Lan said that he and Alice were coming, Zhang Dingjun really had some trouble thinking about it, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what they were thinking in their hearts.
Although he had seen the development trajectory of Wang Qiang, the commander of the 54th Group Army, who had developed with the help of the rapid rise of the Zhang family, and saw the growing influence of the Zhang family on both sides of the Chinese and political circles, Zhang Dingjun already had the intention of befriending the Alice Group and the Zhang family, but it was only limited to the Zhang family who wanted to make friends with the Zhang family who held the shares of the Alice (China) Group.
Forget it, after thinking about it for a long time to no avail, Zhang Dingjun shook his head: The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and if there is anything really at that time, just act when you see the opportunity. If they plan to deepen their relationship with their side, it is naturally the best, and if they just ask for help from themselves, then it depends on the specific situation.
Although he was already the commander of one of China's three major fleets, Zhang Dingjun looked at his watch, and then, as well as their huge car that was still steaming, Zhang Dingjun still didn't dare to say anything. His mouth was wide enough to fit a coconut in his astonishment.
Pointing to his watch, Zhang Dingjun's tone sounded a little stammering, "Why is it so fast?" It seems like it's been less than two hours since you called me. ”
"This," Zhang Lan smiled shyly—pretending—and seemed embarrassed, "our car is relatively fast, so it takes a little less time." ”
Hearing Zhang Lan's words, Zhang Dingjun was speechless: Even if he is the most skilled driver in the army, it takes at least three and a half hours to get from the Qingdao North Sea Fleet Headquarters to Zhang Lan and them under the premise of ensuring safety, and these three people only have 2 hours, is it possible that their car is a road version of an F1 car?
Take a look at Zhang Lan's car again. Zhang Dingjun shook his head. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a civilian Humvee for the United States. It's just a lot bigger than the car. However, the top speed of the car was only less than 150 miles per hour. How did they run so fast?
Zhang Dingjun doesn't know yet. That's the speed. It was still Zhang Lan who signaled Brother Zhu to slow down and run to the ground. Let Brother Zhu let go and run. It only takes an hour and a half to reach Qingdao. At that time, Zhang Dingjun was not surprised, but whether he would be taken aback.
"This is Miss Alice, right?" Zhang Dingjun came to Alice. A smile on his face. "It's a blessing. The North Sea Fleet can have Miss Alice here. It's really a glorious and honorable experience. ”
Isn't that nonsense? Zhang Lan rolled her eyes: I said Alice was coming. Three people in front of you. Two are Chinese with black hair and black eyes. There is only one blonde foreign woman. Who is not Alice?
After entering Zhang Dingjun's office. After a while, there was no use in greeting and chatting for a while, after a good cooperative relationship between the Alice Group and the military. sheet
Get ready to cut to the chase.
"We have a plan, this matter may be closely related to the military, especially the navy, so I want to discuss it with Uncle Zhang first," Zhang Lan said, "Well, first of all, this plan is just an idea, and it has not yet been implemented, this time I came purely to learn from Uncle Zhang, you have rich experience in the navy, and you know more about some policies than us, if there is anything wrong with our plan, please give us more advice." ”
"Oh?" Hearing Zhang Lan say this, Zhang Dingjun was curious for a while, what was the matter that made the behemoth boss of Alice Group come in person? Nodding, "Tell me, what's going on?" As long as I know, I will know everything, and I will say everything. ”
"That's the case, we plan to set up a fishing fleet and an ocean shipping group, with an initial planned investment of 3 billion US dollars, well, if something happens along the way, we can add up to 4 billion US dollars in total investment," Zhang Lan said, repeating the words he had agreed with Xiao Chenxi and Alice before, and finally said, "In order to protect our newly established ocean shipping group from pirates in Southeast Asia and Europe, To protect our fishing fleet from being bullied by the small navies in Southeast Asia during normal and legal fishing operations, we intend to purchase a fleet of converted unarmed warships from Russia to escort our fleet. ”
When he first heard Zhang Lan talk about their investment plan, Zhang Dingjun felt that even his heartbeat instantly accelerated a lot: just planning to set up a fishing fleet and an ocean shipping group, the total investment is planned to be 3.04 billion US dollars7|Is there any money? Such a large amount of bystanders converted into two or three billion yuan, they said to take it out? When he heard Zhang Lan talk about the size of his fishing fleet and the ocean shipping group, Zhang Dingjun's heart was already trembling: Damn! Really *** rich! It's just that when I heard Zhang Lan finally say that he was going to set up an escort fleet to escort his fleet......
"Unarmed warships? What do you mean? Hearing the word that popped out of Zhang Lan's mouth, Zhang Dingjun's attention was immediately attracted, and at the same time, he was startled in his heart, and at the same time felt a burst of embarrassment and embarrassment in his heart: because his country's naval strength was not strong enough, people were worried that they would be bullied, and they all thought of protecting themselves, the shame of the navy!
"That's the case," Zhang Lan said the plan he had discussed with Xiao Chenxi to purchase Krivak-class missile frigates from Russia for modification, and asked with a final face as if asked, "Uncle Zhang, what do you think of our plan, will it work?" If it works, we think that not only can we protect our fishing fleet and ocean-going shipping fleet, but we can also provide them with protection if the domestic fishing fleet is willing to join our fleet when they are operating. ”
"So?" It turned out that this so-called "unarmed warship" meant something like this, and Zhang Dingjun, who understood what was going on, finally put his mind at ease: It's good that it's not a real warship! Touching his chin, he frowned and seriously thought about the suggestion made by Zhang Lan, "You let me think about this matter." ”
Zhang Dingjun never thought that Zhang Lan, a kid, would be able to think of such an idea to protect himself. Theoretically speaking, no matter what kind of warship it is, as long as the weapons and equipment on it are removed, it cannot be said to be a warship, and then private ownership can also be justified. But if there are no weapons on board, it will not be able to serve as a self-defense at all. This is also a big question that has always plagued ocean shipping groups: how can they effectively protect themselves from pirates? At the same time, the navy also has a headache: how can we reasonably and legally protect the fishermen of our own country from the bullying of the navies of those small countries in Southeast Asia? This problem has been a headache for the Navy for a long time, and it knows that there is no suitable solution yet.
But this kid actually thought of adding this oversized slingshot to shoot ice projectiles on it to fight the armies of the navies of small Southeast Asian countries that came to harass them. I have to say that this is a very genius and creative idea, which not only circumvents the law that private individuals are not allowed to possess weapons, but also effectively protects oneself - a slingshot, no matter how big it is, it is also a slingshot. Who can say that a slingshot is a weapon?
Needless to say, this is a very good way to protect oneself and make these small countries suffer. If this method is really used, I don't know what the leaders above will think, but I think that this is not a good idea to solve the problems suffered by Chinese fishermen when fishing outside in the current situation.
