I have a debt of 3 trillion, and my creditors are begging me not to die.
Chapter 315 Live Stream Test Shocks the World
The B-2, currently the most powerful bomber on Earth, is nothing compared to the whistle. Sanchez's high praise for the whistle makes everyone understand just how powerful it truly is.
Air Force Chief of Staff Wallace immediately said, "Fuck! How is that possible? You must be joking. There is no plane in the world more perfect than the B-2."
"The B-2's top speed is only Mach 0.95, but with a full load, it can reach Mach 7, and even Mach 8 if the payload is sacrificed. Besides missiles, it's also equipped with laser weapons and electromagnetic railguns. Do you understand what that means? It means that if the B-2 flies head-on towards us, we can simply use an electromagnetic railgun or laser weapon to take it down without it even having a chance to react. If they use the B-2 as a bomber, with a range of 8000 kilometers, they can attack every corner of the earth from the high seas. Even… well… even if it comes in carrying nuclear weapons, we won't be able to stop it. First, we won't be able to detect it, and second, even if we do, we won't be able to catch it. I hope everyone understands what I mean, and that in the future, when making decisions, we shouldn't hold onto the idea that the bald eagle is the global hegemon. Understand?" Sanchez said earnestly.
Everyone's spirits plummeted instantly; they never imagined that a single aircraft could change the world order.
If it were just an aircraft, it wouldn't be so scary.
But the addition of a plasma film to this aircraft makes it impossible for satellites and radars to lock onto it, which is terrifying.
The inability to lock on means that only the close-in weapon system (CIWS) remains as a defensive measure. If it carries a nuclear weapon, even if it is intercepted, it will not be of much use.
At this point, Chris from the Department of Defense said, "There's no need to be too nervous. It's not certain whether they'll succeed. Let's see the results of their live test first, and then discuss how to respond."
Meanwhile, Yang Chen received a call from Prince Holdan of the Sand Kingdom.
"Mr. Yang, could you sell us some of the aircraft you're going to test live? We'll buy them now, no matter the test results. 10 billion Eagle Dollars per aircraft, no downgrading. Is that enough? If not, 20 billion Eagle Dollars per aircraft. We'll pay whatever price you ask, as long as you agree," Holdan said.
The total cost of sounding the horn is less than 100 million Dragon Coins. Big spenders can buy one for 2 billion Eagle Coins and make a net profit of 14 billion by selling one. It would be a lie to say that they are not tempted.
However, equipment of this level certainly cannot be measured in monetary terms; its strategic value is priceless.
Yang Chen smiled and said, "Prince Holdan is so sincere, I'm really tempted. But you should also know that this level of equipment isn't something I can just decide to buy. If you want to buy it, you'll have to contact our official channels."
Holdan quickly replied, "Alright, I'll communicate with your officials. If they agree to the sale, I hope Mr. Yang will ship the goods to us as soon as possible. We'll support the Slipper Army and the Baldur Kingdom in dealing with the Bald Eagle and the Squid Kingdom, and they'll definitely pay a heavy price."
“No problem. As long as the official sales are approved, I will ship the goods to you as quickly as possible,” Yang Chen replied.
Believe it or not, if the Sand Kingdom really wanted to buy reinforcements, they might actually be able to get their hands on them.
Not long after, Donald Tusk, the President of the European Union, who had not contacted Yang Chen for a long time, called Yang Chen.
After exchanging pleasantries, Tusk got down to business.
“We would like to purchase the siren-equipped aircraft developed by Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang can name his price. We want the fully equipped version. Is that alright?” Tusk said.
Yang Chen replied with a smile, "Mr. Tusk, please don't joke with me. Do you think I can make that decision? The Sand Kingdom contacted me just now. They want to buy it for 20 billion Eagle Dollars per unit. I told them I can't make that decision and to try contacting our official authorities. If the authorities agree to the sale, I'm naturally willing to do business. If the authorities don't agree to the sale, I wouldn't dare to sell this kind of equipment."
Tusk quickly replied, "Okay, okay, I'll try contacting your officials right away. I won't bother Mr. Yang any longer, bye."
Tusk relayed Yang Chen's words to the representatives of EU member states, and the news soon reached the Bald Eagle.
This terrified the high-ranking officials of the Bald Eagle Kingdom, because they knew that the Sand Kingdom never fought on its own; it always secretly provided money and equipment to support the Sandals Army and others in their battles.
If the Sand Kingdom actually manages to buy the horn and supplies it to the Slipper Army, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The Bald Eagle immediately contacted the Dragon Kingdom to communicate properly, insisting that the Dragon Kingdom absolutely could not be allowed to sell horns to the Sand Kingdom.
Next, Japan, South Korea, and other countries all contacted Yang Chen to request the purchase of the Siren-Sounding Flying Machine. They were all willing to pay high prices without even looking at the test results, with a minimum guarantee of 20 billion Eagle Dollars.
Yang Chen passed the questions on to the officials, letting the national representatives communicate with them.
June 18th arrived, and netizens around the world, regardless of time zone, tuned into the Starry Sky Military Industry livestream room to wait for the broadcast to begin.
At 9:50 a.m., Xingchen Military Industry's live stream started on platforms such as TikTok.
Netizens from all over the world flocked to the live stream, and the barrage of comments was refreshing at a speed that was as fast as if it were played 16 times faster.
The live broadcast first showed the launch process of the Dongfeng-31AG intercontinental ballistic missile. The footage started after the Dongfeng-31AG took off and did not show the launch site. Things that need to be kept secret should still be kept secret.
At this moment, two voices, one male and one female, came from the live broadcast. The man was explaining in Mandarin, and the woman was explaining in English.
"What you are seeing now is the launch process of the Dongfeng-31AG intercontinental ballistic missile. This Dongfeng-31AG carries 10 nuclear warheads. This test is being conducted according to actual combat standards. This footage was taken by a siren-equipped aircraft, which will follow the Dongfeng-31AG throughout the entire process for live broadcast."
Barrage.
"Oh my god, carrying 10 nuclear warheads? Is this for real?"
"Are they really this serious about conducting a test? What if it fails? Where will those 10 nuclear warheads land? On the open sea?"
"Yang Chen is really confident; he's really conducting the practical tests according to real-world standards."
"So, does that mean we can see a nuclear bomb explode with our own eyes?"
……
A few minutes later, the Dongfeng AG flew into the outer atmosphere and entered the cruise phase.
At this moment, the screen splits in two, one half showing the Dongfeng 31AG, and the other half showing a very futuristic-looking aircraft.
"The second image you see now is our wide-range aircraft. You're probably wondering what a wide-range aircraft is. Simply put, it has strong acceleration and climb performance, while also maintaining stable and controllable flight capabilities at subsonic, transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic speeds. To put it even more bluntly, we can make it climb and descend, and we can make it accelerate and decelerate. Whether it's flight altitude or flight speed, it can be controlled and operated within a very wide range. That's our definition of a wide-range aircraft. As for how other countries define it, we can't control that; our aircraft simply possesses these characteristics and capabilities."
Barrage.
"You can tell from its design that it must fly very fast."
"So this is what it looks like! Wait a minute, weren't they saying that satellites and radar couldn't detect or lock onto it? And that it was so fast that even airplanes and missiles couldn't catch up with it? Then how were we able to capture footage of it flying?"
"The intelligence of Indians is truly incomprehensible. This is clearly footage of another aircraft flying in sync with the plane, honking its horn and filming simultaneously."
"This aircraft is truly stunning, second only to the B-2. But its overall performance far surpasses that of the B-2."
……
Just as everyone was having a heated discussion, an exciting scene unfolded.
In the footage, the aircraft activates its plasma shield and hurtles towards the Dongfeng-31AG at Mach 7. The aircraft's altitude is slightly below the Dongfeng-31AG; a black dot can be seen rapidly passing beneath it. Without warning, the Dongfeng-31AG, flying outside the atmosphere, explodes. Due to the aircraft's high speed, the shockwave from the nuclear warhead blast carried by the Dongfeng-31AG cannot keep up with it.
At this moment, high-ranking officials and military and weapons experts from around the world who were watching the live broadcast were stunned by this scene.
Many people believe that sounding the horn to intercept a nuclear missile would mean sacrificing oneself to detonate the missile.
Now they realize that their limited knowledge had restricted their imagination. They learned that sounding the horn could use speed to evade the shockwave of an explosion, allowing them to successfully intercept a nuclear missile carried by an intercontinental ballistic missile without being damaged.
A nuclear bomb detonating outside the atmosphere will not pose any threat to a country's airspace, and since it is intercepted over international waters, even if debris falls, it will not harm the country.
At this moment, in the observation room of the high-level officials of the Sakura Kingdom.
"It's too powerful, it's simply unacceptable! They can perfectly intercept nuclear bombs, and no other country can pose a threat to them."
"Fortunately, we didn't choose the wrong side this time and signed the free trade agreement in advance. As long as we are humble enough, the Chinese will definitely not attack us, given their way of doing things."
"Listen, from now on, we must maintain absolute humility and modesty in front of the Dragon Kingdom. No one is allowed to deliberately provoke them. If you don't want to live, you can jump into the sea and commit suicide, but don't drag us down with you."
"That's right! Right-wingers who don't want to live can commit suicide, but don't drag their compatriots down with them. Let's find an opportunity to acknowledge history and apologize to China another day. They're easy to get along with. As long as we adopt the right attitude, everything will be fine. Trust me."
Meanwhile, the scene at the Bald Eagle's home was incredibly noisy.
"God, why did they let them succeed in their test?! How are we supposed to live like this now?! Nuclear weapons are no longer a threat to them, they're invincible on Earth now!"
"God, why are you so unfair? Yang Chen has developed all sorts of cutting-edge technology, why can't we share some with him? We can do without the other technologies, but we absolutely must have this aircraft and plasma film."
"It's over. We've dominated the Earth for a hundred years, and our hegemony has finally come to an end. Sanchez, can you develop these aircraft and plasma shields and plasma films as soon as possible? As long as you can develop these devices, we can maintain our global dominance."
"As I said, it could take anywhere from 10 years to forever. It's impossible for you to overcome these technologies immediately; we don't have that capability."
"But why does Yang Chen have such abilities? What are you lacking compared to Yang Chen? Why can't you do what he can do?"
"We're incompetent. If you're so great, you do it, okay? Fuck!"
On the other hand, the German executives who were watching the meeting were relatively calm.
"There's nothing more to say. Our next priority is to maintain good relations with the Dragon Kingdom. Tomorrow we will announce the return of 3000 artifacts to them, to make our stance clear before other countries."
“I don’t object! But I want to try again to see if we can buy this aircraft. Let alone 20 billion Eagle Dollars, even if it’s 30 billion Eagle Dollars, we’ll grit our teeth and buy 10 of them to be our national treasures.”
"If all else fails, we can allow the Dragon Kingdom to have complete control over these aircraft. If we are threatened, we can apply to them for use, and they can judge whether it is necessary for us to use them. If they think it is indeed necessary for us to use them, then they can unlock the engines for us to use. Do you think they can accept such conditions?"
"Uh...isn't this just like renting? Renting one for 30 billion, while still having control in their hands, is just too outrageous."
"Is this outrageous? If they agree to sell under these conditions, we should thank God for our good fortune."
In fact, it is quite normal for sellers to offer such terms in international fighter jet transactions.
For example, in addition to the JF-17 Thunder fighter jet, the British also have the J-10CE fighter jet, while the American has the F-16 fighter jet.
However, the right to use the F-16 is in the hands of the bald eagle. Barbabians can only use it with the permission of the bald eagle. The bald eagle felt that they should not be allowed to use it, so it remotely locked the F-16. This is one of the reasons why the bald eagle was willing to sell the F-16 to Barbabians.
Therefore, the plan mentioned by that German official is indeed worth trying. As long as control remains in China's hands, China might actually be willing to sell. After all, it's 1 million Chinese dollars to sell for 20 billion or even 30 billion British dollars.
At this moment, the high-ranking officials of India who were watching the live broadcast were also completely dumbfounded.
It is well known that Indians have always had a strange idea: if China can do it, they can too; if China has something, India must have something too.
The Indians, who have always harbored dreams of becoming a great power, have always believed that they are the strongest in Asia and the third strongest in the world. But at this moment, their dream of being "the third brother" has been shattered.
"From now on, everyone should watch their mouths and not say anything they shouldn't. As the saying goes, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. Our two countries are neighbors, and maintaining good relations is good for both of us. I'll apply to visit China another day to properly strengthen our relationship. Also, the internet department should step up its efforts and control netizens' comments. Maintaining good relations with China is the fundamental premise. Understand?"
On the other side, the executives of the neighboring Barbecue were dancing with joy.
"With Brother Long having such powerful equipment, we can also become tougher."
“Let’s ask Brother Long to buy this aircraft. Even if it’s a stripped-down version, we’ll buy it without hesitation as long as Brother Long is willing to sell it.”
"Even without plasma weapons, its speed alone is enough to crush the Indians. Buy, buy, buy! We absolutely have to buy them, we have to beg for a few."
Of course, the happiest people were those in China, especially the air force, who were as happy as if they had received a first-class merit award.
"If our air force were equipped with siren horns, wouldn't we be invincible?"
"Then I must be invincible! I am invincible on Earth, and I can even take on aliens one by one."
"Ha ha……"
At this moment, Yang Chen smiled with satisfaction.
Guo Hu said excitedly, "Chairman Yang, we succeeded! It's just a pity that this equipment can't be sold. If it could be sold, it would definitely be more profitable than any other business."
Yang Chen smiled and said, "This kind of equipment, which has the potential to change the international landscape, cannot be measured in monetary terms. However, if there are too many countries wanting to buy it and the order volume is huge, I think it's not impossible. Things are inanimate, but people are adaptable; we can always find a way to meet each other's needs."
Yang Chen actually thought that since the profit margin of this aircraft was so high, the authorities would probably find a way to agree to its sale after careful consideration.
For example, Yang Chen came up with some solutions.
They only sell empty shells to customers. When a customer applies to use it, the Chinese side conducts an assessment. If the customer determines that the customer should indeed use it, they send a team to fly over and install plasma devices, etc., and use it under the full control of the Chinese side's operators. After the mission is completed, the key devices are disassembled.
This ensures that core technologies are not leaked, maintains control, and allows customers to use them for self-defense or attack in times of crisis.
These are all things to consider later; ultimately, we'll have to see the official stance to determine whether it can be sold. (End of Chapter)
