Chapter 245 A Different Air Show (I)

At the end of November, heavy snow had already fallen in many places in the north, but in the south it was still the cool and crisp autumn weather.

Haizhu City, located in the Greater Bay Area and close to the gambling city of Aogang, has become extremely popular in recent days.

It's not because the casino has launched some preferential activities for gamblers and tourists, which attracts gamblers from all over the world. It's because the biennial China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition officially opened in the next few days (hereinafter referred to as Haizhu Air Show).

The Haizhu Air Show is one of the five largest air shows in the world. As it is an important window for China to display its heavy new military equipment to the outside world, the air show has been extremely popular over the years.

This air show attracted 47 companies from 1022 countries and regions to participate in the exhibition. It is said that before the opening, more than 500 million electronic tickets were sold online alone.

Aviation fans, military fans and foreign military attachés from all over the country gathered here, making the already busy streets even more crowded.

Li Mo is a senior military fan and professional video blogger in his 30s. Over the years, he has frequently participated in various military equipment exhibitions at home and abroad. He uses high-end photographic equipment to record live videos and publish them on major video websites. Combined with professional editing and text explanations, he has accumulated hundreds of thousands of fans on the Internet.

Because he looks old when he appears on camera, combined with his video ID "Wu Ku Station", his fans enthusiastically call him "Wu Ku Lao Mo".

As soon as the Haizhu Air Show opened, Li Mo drove to the International Air Show Center carrying a lot of bags.

The backpack is filled with professional photography equipment, such as Canon's full-frame telephoto lens, DJI's gimbal, and Sony's camera, which are considered the basic standard for entering the photography industry.

Even the admission pass hanging on Li Mo's chest is different from the package tickets for ordinary tourists.

He spent more than 3000 yuan and, with the help of his fame as a blogger with hundreds of thousands of followers, got a professional invitation ticket from the exhibitor, which allowed him to visit the exhibition one day in advance.

In addition, with this invitation ticket, you can enter the booth for a close-up observation.

Unlike ordinary tourists, who have to buy a 500 yuan ticket and wait until the next day to be allowed to visit.

Of course, Li Mo has made many like-minded friends after being in the military fan circle for a long time.

As soon as he entered the venue, he ran into several UP hosts of military channels who were also carrying guns and ammunition.

"Old Mo!"

"You're here just after the museum opens at 9 o'clock? Great!"

"Hehe~ I'm following the latest information. I heard that there will be a lot of new equipment this year. I'll get in position early to wait for the materials."

“I don’t know if the water molecule on the H-20 will come out. The official blog has been planning it for several months.”

"Have you seen the promotional videos? It looks like there will be a water-based sub-venue this year! The killer whale unmanned boat seems to have arrived at the port, and it's going viral in the group."

They are all a group of die-hard military fans and professionals who make a living from this. Once they start chatting, they can talk nonstop.

After all, the domestic military industry has exploded in recent years, with a dazzling array of new equipment, and the military fan circle is as lively as the Spring Festival every day.

So after sharing the clues and information they had, the group of video bloggers dispersed.

Li Mo also found a good spot to set up his equipment, adjusted the lens and aimed it at the take-off and landing runway on the sea side, intending to shoot some footage so that he could go back and edit the video.

Since it is the first day of the opening, ordinary tourists are not allowed to enter.

Those who came were all wealthy guys who had obtained professional tickets, and the tens of thousands of people scattered across various areas of the air show center made the show seem a little lacking in popularity.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that the first day of the air show is used for warm-up.

Most domestic and foreign aviation equipment will make an emergency landing on the runway of Jinwan Airport on this day, and then follow the dispatch arrangements to park at the aircraft display area of ​​the air show center.

Therefore, the professional photography area where Li Mo stood has become a battleground for military fans at every Haizhu Air Show!

This is the only place where you can shoot dynamic rigs at such close range.

Before ordinary tourists even entered, the venue was already filled with a group of military enthusiasts and photographers with black and white mixed color telephoto lenses.

"Sigh~"

"There are so many people coming this year!"

"If we let ordinary tourists in tomorrow, won't they all poop and pee and fart into their trouser pockets?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and grab a seat, there are almost no spaces near the railing!" A group of photographers were talking.

Fortunately, the weather was good. The blue sky and white clouds in Haizhu City and the sea breeze blew away the dust in the air in the past two days. The visibility was high and the footage was clear.

Just after setting up the equipment and adjusting the lens and frame parameters, Li Mo, who was mixed in the crowd, heard a roar coming from above his head.

Looking up, I saw a team of J-10 demonstration aircraft painted dark blue roaring towards me from a distance, trailing colorful smoke.

The well-coordinated flying movements made the group of military fans at the scene excited.

"It's the 'August 1st' performance team!"

"Following behind is the J-8 of the Red Eagle, the official opening ceremony!"

There was a cheer in the photography area.

I got up early and finally had some material to shoot.

But for veteran military fans like Li Mo, these J-10 demonstration aircraft and the white J-8 following behind them are already boring.

Because there are several large-scale air shows held in the country every year, and these two are the first to perform.

There is nothing new to see after watching it for a long time, it's just puffs of smoke and some difficult stunts like spirals, nose-down maneuvers, tail slides, somersaults, and figure 8s or S-shaped maneuvers.

So he pressed the shutter a few times towards the sky, and after making two clicks of the tongue, Li Mo patiently waited for the subsequent equipment to arrive.

But I didn’t expect that the Bayi and Red Eagle performance teams would start their emergency landing on the airport runway right after their show.

At the end of the sky, a fleet of aircraft flew over, which was different from previous Haizhu Air Shows!
Six heavy fighter jets in red, blue and white were seen approaching from afar, trailing smoke, led by a fighter jet also painted in a performance color.

The roar of the twin engines immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the military fans on the scene!
Because everyone discovered that the performance models in the camera were not domestically produced aircraft, but Russian aircraft with conspicuous rivets and rough skin, and the workmanship was obviously very crude!
"Fuck!"

"It's the Su-35 and Su-30!"

"This... this is the Russian Warriors Flying Demonstration Team!"

"We actually invited Russia to this year's air show?"

Listening to the discussions around him, Li Mo's adrenaline continued to be secreted and he kept pressing the shutter of the camera in his hand.

As the saying goes, foreign monks are better at chanting sutras.

The domestic J-10 was already boring years ago, so this team of Soviet fighter jets flying from Siberia can just attract the attention of military fans.

In addition, in previous Haizhu Air Shows, there have never been flight demonstration teams from Russia or even other countries.

The Warriors flight demonstration team captured everyone's imagination as soon as they entered the arena for their first show.

“Is there a big surprise this year?”

"Officials are giving out benefits!"

"We kept the air show program list secret for so long, but we never expected that the Russians would be invited!"

After taking hundreds of shots, Li Mo took a deep breath and a festive smile appeared on his face.

But before the excitement had died down, a more powerful aircraft followed from behind the Warriors performance team.

It was a flat plane painted gray and white, and from a distance it looked like a fallen leaf.

As soon as he appeared, people in the photography area gasped.

Even Li Mo himself screamed out in surprise: "Fuck! Su-57!"

"The Russians' fifth-generation aircraft are here too?"
