Chapter 36: The Cuckoo Project
Chen Dao walked to the door of Goering's office with Albert's letter, and just pushed the door open, he heard Goering's angry roar.
"Don't even think about those planes, everything that can fly in Germany is in my hands."
With a "bang", Goering hung up the phone and sat back in his chair panting.
Chen Daoxin said what was going on, the anger of the head of state had just been staged in the Prime Minister's Office, and in the blink of an eye, the anger of President Ge was staged again at the Air Force Headquarters.
Chen Dao threw the letter in his hand on Goering's desk, then sat down on the chair opposite Goering, and asked, "Who wants to rob your plane?" β
Goering looked at the letter and said without raising his head: "Who else could it be?" It's not that old guy from Raeder, it's really whimsical that he wants to put the carrier-based aircraft on the USS Zeppelin under the jurisdiction of the Navy. β
"Oh." Chen Dao sighed lightly and leaned back in his chair, saying in his heart that what Ryder was doing was not good, he wanted to touch Goering's bottom line, it was really self-inflicted.
"Cuckoo cuckoo." A familiar cry reached Chen Dao's ears.
Chen Dao looked over and found that a cuckoo had fallen on the windowsill outside the window behind Goering.
When the cuckoo, dressed in blue, gray and white feathers, saw that Chen Dao was looking at him, he no longer called, but stared at Chen Dao with small round eyes.
In the spacious and bright office, Goering silently looked down at the letter, and a person and a bird exchanged words through the window with pure eyes, and the room showed a rare silence.
"What are you looking at?" Goering's voice broke the silence in the room, and Chen Dao's body shook back to his senses. Goering curiously turned his head to look out the window at the cuckoo, which was stunned by Goering's bull's eye, flew into the air, made a few loud "cuckoo cuckoo" sounds, and flew away.
"Cuckoos? Shouldn't there be cuckoos this season? Goering muttered a few words and turned around.
Albert only remembered to ask how the business was going, and he really didn't have any business acumen. You tell him that everything is under my control, and let him wait for my notification. Goering said.
Chen Dao nodded slightly, Goering's eyes flickered up and down to look at Chen Dao, and saw Chen Dao's eyes glazed, staring at the desktop of the desk in a daze, looking like he was in a state of despair.
Goering's eyes rolled a few times and he suddenly realized, and said to Chen Dao with a smile: "Heinz, you are not familiar with business matters, you better participate less, your most important job now is to improve the combat effectiveness of my regiment as soon as possible." I will open an account for you in a Swiss bank, and after the business is completed, I will pay you every dividend on time. β
Chen Dao let out a cold "oh" and stopped talking.
Goering was suspicious when he saw Chen Dao's attitude, wasn't Heinz worried about dividends? With my IQ, how could I guess wrong?
Driven by curiosity, Goering decided to come up with an explanation for his IQ, "Heinz, what are you thinking?" β
Chen Dao was no longer wandering in the world at this time, and said excitedly: "I'm thinking about that cuckoo." β
Goering found that he really couldn't keep up with Chen Dao's train of thought, and said that even if I guessed wrong this time, it had nothing to do with IQ.
Chen Dao didn't pay attention to the look on Goering's face, and said to himself: "This cuckoo, his scientific name is cuckoo bird. β
"Heinz, are you going to force me to pull out a gun?" Goering shouted dissatisfied.
"Pull out a gun? What are you doing with your gun? I'm talking to you about business, what are you doing with your gun? Chen Dao glared at Goering and asked.
"It's not business, it's biology class."
"No, no, no, this is business, you listen to me, patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to a big business involving thousands of combat aircraft, you have to be patient." Chen Dao patiently explained.
As soon as he heard that it was a big business involving thousands of combat aircraft, Goering's impatience was swept away, and he immediately sat down and listened to Chen Dao's teachings.
"The cuckoo's scientific name is cuckoo bird, and the cuckoo has evolved a powerful biological instinct in order to reproduce, which is its incubation parasitism. Every year in late spring and early summer, it does not make its own nest or incubate its eggs, but puts its eggs in the nests of other birds and lets them hatch for it. And it only lays one egg per nest it flies to.
Its eggs are very similar to the host's eggs in color and size, and after the cuckoo's chicks hatch, it will push the host's chicks or eggs out of the nest, so that it can be nurtured by the host for exclusivity, and then grow into an adult, no, an adult bird. Chen Dao said.
"I don't know what this has to do with business?" Goering said impatiently.
"I just said that you have to be patient to do big business, you are like this, how can I talk to you about business in the future?" Chen Dao said with hatred that iron is not made of steel.
"I'll give you another five minutes, you hurry up." Goering urged.
"The Navy is in dire need of aircraft now, and we can send two people to serve as commanders and chiefs of staff of the Naval Aviation under the banner of helping the Navy build naval aviation, on the grounds that our Air Force is more experienced, and with the help of our Air Force veterans, the naval aviation can grow more rapidly, so that the command of the naval aviation will be firmly grasped by us.
However, after all, naval aviation is the establishment of the navy, so the money for buying airplanes, aviation fuel, building flight bases, and so on and so forth, and by the way, the pilots' salaries must be paid by the navy, and we don't have to pay a single mark. β
"It has to be the Navy who pays for it." Goering said with a fluttering eyebrow, and Goering, who was full of business experience, understood it at once.
"You mean, we are the cuckoo, borrowing money from the navy to hatch our eggs. What a genius idea, I didn't think of it. Goering stared at Chen Dao with an approving expression and said.
"Heinz, under my influence, you finally began to have a business acumen."
Goering jumped up from his chair, strode to Chen Dao's side, sat down on the desk, looked at Chen Dao condescendingly and said, "I will deal with this matter, and the navy must agree." If they don't agree."
"If they don't agree, don't think about getting a plane, everything that can fly in Germany is under the jurisdiction of our air force." Chen Dao said.
"yes, that's it." Goering sat on the table excitedly and twisted his round body, the desk creaked under Goering's devastation, Chen Dao looked at the desk sympathetically, lest the desk could not bear Goering's weight and whimpered.
"When the time comes, not only airplanes, but also the aircraft carrier Zeppelin will become the industry of our Air Force, not good," Goering exclaimed and jumped off his desk.
"I need to order a halt to the dismantling of the Strassel." Goering shouted.
After a phone call, Goering sat back in his office chair.
"What is the Strassel?" Chen Dao asked.
"The sister ship of the Zeppelin, on September 19, stopped construction and began to be dismantled, and the steel was used for other purposes, and it is now also the industry of our Air Force, and it must be retained." Goering explained.
"One thing to note is that the head of state is first and foremost concerned about this matter, and we must put on a posture of uniting the navy, so that in case the negotiations with the navy fail in the future, we can put the blame on the navy." Chen Dao admonished.
"I'll take note, I'll talk to Raeder right now, he'll have to agree."
Outside the Air Force headquarters building, looking at the car that had gone away, Chen Dao thought that Goering's bulging fat belly was full of business, as for Raeder, he should belong to the kind of layman with six-pack abs and no business mind, and the Luftwaffe's cuckoo plan was eight to nine times out of ten.
"Unity is strength, unity is strength, this power is iron, this strength is steelγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Chen Dao hummed a little song and got into his car.
The unity of Germany's three and a half branches of the armed forces began with the bandits. With a wonderful vision, Chen Dao returned to his office.
