The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 427 Why Don't You Leave
Liu Hua had really stolen the spotlight, which made the young man unhappy. He thought to himself, "I'm so rich, and you, an old codger, have stolen all the limelight. How can that be? Didn't you see I was picking up girls?"

So he said dismissively, "No matter what you say, no matter what your avionics or control systems are, if your engine is no good, it's no good. It's the heart of the aircraft, and you can't hide the fact that it's terrible."

Liu Hua spread his hands: "Did I hide anything? I didn't hide anything. I'll tell you frankly that we bought our engines from Rolls-Royce, and at a price that was cheaper than what we bought from Boeing. There's nothing to hide about that. We're also developing our own aero engines."

"What's the use? There are still as many doors as there are."

Liu Hua nodded: "Although Mr. Feng Ru built our Chinese airplane not long after the Wright brothers, in the modern aviation industry, we were indeed half a century behind others at the biggest time. But we have been catching up bravely and have now caught up. Although there are still shortcomings, given time, it won't be long before we are number one."

"Tch, anyone can brag. And who is this Feng Ru?"

Liu Hua stared at him for a while, then smiled and said, "Since you look down on your motherland so much, why don't you leave? I know someone who specializes in sending people who want to immigrate to immigrate. The success rate is almost 100%, as long as you have money."

"I have plenty of money."

Liu Hua nodded: "Two hundred thousand is the minimum."

The guy fell silent instantly, like a duck being choked.

He claims to have plenty of money, but actually, taking out 100,000 or 200,000 yuan is not a problem at all. If he puts in a little effort, he can even come up with 200,000 yuan.

But after he paid out the 200,000 yuan in fees, he would have to beg for food when he got to America.

"You're a scammer, aren't you? A 200,000 yuan handling fee? I've seen many people get it done with almost no money."

“Many people go there illegally and can’t work, so they have to do illegal jobs,” Liu Hua explained. “There are also some people who go there without spending money because they are scholars or intellectuals and are skilled immigrants. If they pay 200,000 yuan, my friend will guarantee that they will have legal status.”

Liu Hua said dismissively, "Those Americans aren't stupid. They either want your money or your technology. It's not like just any piece of trash can get legal status there."

Everyone could tell that Liu Hua was mocking the young man as a good-for-nothing, and the young man himself understood it too.

He rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Liu Hua a lesson, and cursed, "I can tell, old man, you're calling me a piece of trash."

As we all know, there are flight police officers on airplanes in our country. Although they are mostly in plainclothes, they are very observant and have long noticed the commotion.

He listened for a while and knew that Liu Hua was no ordinary person. When he saw the young man rolling up his sleeves, he immediately stopped him, saying, "Behave yourself, or I'll arrest you right now."

This young man was incredibly stubborn; he dared to yell at anyone he saw, and angrily retorted, "Who do you think you are, daring to boss me around like that?"

“They must be the flight attendants,” Liu Hua said with a smile. “They can exercise all the powers of the police when necessary.”

Most young people like him are all bark and no bite. After the train police officer showed him his ID, he didn't dare to move. There was nothing he could do; he was just feeling guilty and in the wrong.

Liu Hua didn't take the matter to heart, because he knew that such rumors had never stopped during our development. There were always those who couldn't stand up for themselves, even after we became powerful enough to intimidate even the United States. The reason Liu Hua rushed back this time was because the wind power project team had also achieved results.

These kids are very aware of the crisis. They were already holding their breath after the previous success in the optoelectronic project, and now they've heard from inside sources that Professor Liu is setting up a nuclear power project team.

That puts even more pressure on them. Anyone can tell without thinking that nuclear power projects will receive far more attention than their wind power projects. If they don't achieve results soon, they'll have nowhere to stand.

Instead of steaming buns, they fought for pride. To boost their morale, they held an internal rally, determined to overcome all difficulties within three months.

In order to complete the mission on schedule, they used every trick in the book. They begged their masters, senior brothers and sisters, and even their grandmasters and great-grandmasters, as long as it was useful, they were willing to do anything, even summoning the spirits of the great-grandmother.

Ultimately, their team of over two hundred people overcame twenty-seven challenges within ninety days and successfully produced a prototype wind turbine.

Liu Hua's wind turbine is not like those in Europe and America. It is almost identical to the one from the previous generation, that is, the 2020s. Its efficiency is much higher than that of today, and the direction of the fan can be adjusted according to the wind direction.

Liu Hua was very satisfied, and the State Grid Corporation of China was also satisfied upon receiving the news; building a wind power plant was much simpler than building a dam.

State Grid quickly reached an agreement with relevant parties to begin construction of a wind power plant on the grassland border north of Beijing.

No one should underestimate the speed of our infrastructure construction. Soon, towering wind turbines were erected along both sides of the highway leading into the grassland.

If there's no sandstorm, the blue sky, white clouds, green grass, and rows of colorful fans with their blades make for a delightful scene.

The front page of the Beijing Daily featured such a beautiful photograph, which was widely circulated and spread by word of mouth. The general public then learned that wind power could generate electricity, and that this had already been achieved. Most importantly, our country's technology is the strongest.

Europe has always been a pioneer in environmental protection, not because they truly love environmental protection, but because they have been misled by the United States.

When they learned that Liu Hua had a new wind turbine, they immediately sent people over to inspect it.

Their plan is very shrewd. By using new technologies, they can not only avoid many of the mistakes they made before, but the company's stock price will also skyrocket in no time.

It was quite remarkable that a reporter who came along captured this stunning scenery and published it in mainstream European media.

When European citizens and environmental organizations learned that a certain company was going to introduce this new type of wind power equipment, its stock price soared by 7% that day. Before the equipment was even introduced, it had already made back the money spent on the equipment.

The company boss was overjoyed; this was all money!

So he immediately contacted the inspection team and gave them an ultimatum: "I don't care what methods you use, you must introduce new wind power equipment. If you fail to do so, you won't be able to return to Europe."
