Chapter 291 Breaking the Ball! (Third Update!)

The lab coats in the testing workshop are made of linen to prevent static electricity.

Thanks to modern processing techniques, the clothes are not heavy; they are very light.

However, Jiang Daqiao felt the weight of the clothes very clearly, and he quickly raised his hands and pressed them down on Lin Yi's hands:
"Don't get me into trouble!"

"It's just adding a layer of clothing, no big deal!"

"Don't hurt me!"

The sound of the two arguing attracted the attention of several people nearby, who cast curious glances their way.

Soon, they discerned the key point from the two men's argument.

Lin Yi is going to bestow the imperial robe upon Jiang Daqiao!
The next second, Qin Chao and his group surrounded them: "Daqiao, what are you afraid of? Don't be afraid, Jinling is the big brother of our Jiangsu Province!"

"Fly high, your brothers will always support you!"

"Yes, Daqiao, Qin Chao is right. Pengcheng will always be your strong support!"

"Our state is also your strong support!"

"We are all your strong support. As long as you turn around, you will find that we will always be there for you. We will always be brothers, with a friendship as deep as peeling garlic!"

Jiang Daqiao grew increasingly angry as he listened to their words. He waved his hands frantically, finally managing to shoo the people away, before roaring:

"You're all my backers, get out of here!"

The sharp roar made Qin Chao and the others abandon their playful mood. Then, Qin Chao looked at everyone and said:

"Seriously, should we form an internal alliance?"

"With the strength of our 13 cities, if we join forces to form a technology alliance, we can absolutely crush the world."

No sooner had they finished speaking than Jin Wenbin poked his head out and asked, "Then who will be the leader of the alliance?"

“Look, this company is called Xiaomi Heavy Industry, and our Pengcheng started out with heavy industry.”

"We are the rightful leaders!"

Hearing him continue to undermine him, Qin Chao's smile vanished. "I'm not joking with you!"

"I wasn't joking!" Jin Wenbin also stopped smiling, crossed his arms, and gently shook his head.

"From the current perspective, the capabilities demonstrated by Xiaomi Heavy Industry are indeed very strong."

"However, Jiangsu Province has 13 cities with a resident population of 7800 million."

"He can support your Suzhou, but he can't support the entire Jiangsu province!"

"Moreover, this involves a precise distribution of benefits, so this alliance isn't something you can easily form!"

At this point, Jin Wenbin sighed and turned to walk out of the workshop.

After him, the others also left one after another.

Within minutes, only people from Jinling, Yizhou, and Jiyang remained.

The remaining few glanced at Qin Chao, then turned their attention to Lin Yi. Jiang Daqiao spoke first, expressing his thoughts:

"President Lin, if this guy surnamed Qin is doing something wrong, you can come to our side. We have plenty of policies for you!"

Before he could finish speaking, he noticed Qin Chao's murderous gaze, shrank back, and waved his hand:
"You stingy little thing, let's go!"

"I'm leaving!"

After watching the last person disappear through the door, Lin Yi cheerfully said to Qin Chao:
"Look, you're in a hurry!"

Qin Chao rolled his eyes, turned around, and shook his head at Lin Yi:
“I don’t want to rush either, but the industrial upgrading meeting has already been held, and there are some things that must be done. Rather than dragging our feet, we might as well take this opportunity to integrate things.”

"I never imagined that these guys wouldn't even want to act!"

"Of course! I wouldn't do it either. You think you can form an alliance with just a few words? There's no such thing as a free lunch. Besides, if you don't catch up soon, that Secretary Jiang Daqiao from Jinling will run away!" Lin Yi replied, shaking his head. He turned around and slowly walked towards the workshop.

Behind him, Qin Chao took one last look at the testing platform, quickly passed Lin Yi, and chased after him out of the workshop.

Stepping out of the workshop and back into the sunlight, Lin Yi was in a great mood.

Coming to his senses, he saw Qin Chao stopping Jiang Daqiao's car, and his mood improved even more.

Jiangnan Shipyard is located on Shazhou Island in Jiangkou District of Shanghai.

It covers an area of ​​8700 mu (approximately 580 hectares), which is huge!

The straight-line distance from Xiaomi Heavy Industry to Jiangnan Shipyard is 114 kilometers. The entire journey is on the highway and takes only about an hour and a half.

After leaving Xiaomi Heavy Industry, Gao Hai's car led the way, followed by Xiaomi Heavy Industry's transport truck, both vehicles traveling at high speed.

In just one hour, we covered more than 120 kilometers of highway and arrived at Jiangnan Shipyard.

After registering at the entrance, Gao Hai met his colleague Lin Ze and several chief engineers from Jiangnan Shipyard as soon as he drove in.

Judging from the way they look, it seems they're preparing to go out.

The group of people walking out also saw Gao Hai, and they also saw the truck following behind him.

Lin Ze exchanged a few words with several chief engineers from Jiangnan Shipyard, then quickly walked towards Gao Hai.

He reached out and knocked on the passenger window, asking with a smile, "What, did you realize you'd been scammed after going there today?"

"And then you rushed back?"

"I told you, you can't rush into anything when you're desperate. No matter how anxious we are, we have to take it one step at a time and grow bigger and stronger!"

In the passenger seat, Gao Hai slowly raised his head, his face stern, and said:

"I wasn't fooled; they really do have aircraft carrier arresting gear."

He then leaned out of the car window and pointed to the truck behind him:

"There were four in the car behind!"

"Huh?" Lin Ze's mouth opened wide enough to fit a light bulb inside.

He slowly turned around, looking at the large truck with a face full of terror.

There was a very ordinary van truck, specifically used for transporting goods.

The roof of the car was covered with a three-colored tarpaulin, which looked empty and made people wonder if there was anything inside.

As he looked over, the driver in the main seat happily raised his hand and waved at him.

He then turned his gaze elsewhere, seemingly very curious about everything there.

Turning his gaze away from the truck and gathering his thoughts, Lin Ze asked Gao Hai again, "What did you just say?"

In the passenger seat, Gao Hai took a deep breath and then exhaled sharply.

He tossed the briefcase to the driver, then got out of the car and walked straight to the truck, patting the driver's side door twice with his left hand.
"Master, could you please pull that confetti candy back?"

"okay!"

The truck driver turned off the engine, got out of the truck, and quickly climbed into the cargo bed to remove the tricolor tarpaulin covering it.

He folded the three-colored striped cloth neatly, then quickly opened a side panel of the cargo box near the driver's side, displaying the contents of the cargo box to everyone.

The steel cable, coated with grease, appeared unexpectedly in front of Lin Ze.

Near the front of the vehicle, there were some packaged metal parts and hydraulic screws.

He stared at these things for a while, took a deep breath, turned around, and asked Gao Hai for confirmation:
"You're not going to tell me that this thing is the arresting cable of an aircraft carrier, are you?"

After asking the question, before Gao Hai could answer, he began shaking his head vigorously:
"Impossible. We just had a meeting two days ago and gave orders to those companies to cooperate with the research."

"You're going to pull this thing out today!"

"To be honest, I don't believe it!"

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. If a pie falls from the sky, it's either poisoned or poisoned!"

"I do not believe!"

As Lin Ze spoke, he shook his head and increased the distance between himself and the truck. Seeing him like this, Gao Hai couldn't help but scratch his head.

If Lin Ze went to Xiaomi Heavy Industry, saw the situation there, and then came back to tell me, I'd probably end up like him.

I have to say, it's a bit hard to accept right now.

It will be fine in a couple of days!

He stepped forward, gently patted Lin Ze on the shoulder, then turned to the truck driver and said:

"Master, please close the carriage and then take it to warehouse number 3 over there."

"I'll take you there!"

While the truck driver was closing the cargo bed, several chief engineers from Jiangnan Shipyard finally noticed something was wrong and quickly came over.

"Representative Lin, what's going on?"

"Representative Gao, what's going on?"

Upon seeing the visitor, Gao Hai nodded slightly and then casually pointed to the truck bed:
"We've got the arresting cables for the aircraft carrier that we were discussing the other day!"

"The same style as America's! 20 yuan apiece, these few were given away for free by the manufacturer!"

"hiss--"

After the Varyag aircraft carrier arrived in China, the Chinese side began intensive preparations for its refit.

But once they actually got their hands on it, the group realized that it was really difficult to handle.

Because the Varyag aircraft carrier that was purchased was only about 67% completed in Ukraine.

When we made the purchase, we only managed to get a portion of the blueprints.

The Chinese had never built an aircraft carrier before and didn't know its internal structure, so they could only rely on these blueprints to figure it out little by little.

It took several years to figure this thing out before they were finally able to deduce the internal structural blueprints based on the hull of the aircraft carrier and some fragmented intelligence.

To verify this, a 1:1 scale concrete aircraft carrier was built in 08 to test the things that were launched.

As verification began, new problems arose one after another.

The equipment built into the aircraft carrier has extremely high requirements, and China urgently needs a comprehensive technological breakthrough to solve these problems.

So, a large group of people started working hard again.

They mustered all their strength and were ready to fight to the death.

Aircraft carrier arresting gear is one important component of this.

The main role of an aircraft carrier is to carry carrier-based aircraft and provide sufficient air power for the fleet.

Compared to land-based airports, aircraft carriers have very short decks, requiring some assistance for takeoff and landing; otherwise, aircraft would simply overrun the deck and plunge into the sea.

If you can take off but can't land, then it's all for nothing.

For this project, the navy personnel went to Ukraine first, thinking that since Ukraine had acquired the ship, they should have a good understanding of its capabilities.

Unfortunately, Ukraine has nothing.

I went to Russia again, but Russia is playing dead.

Later, we went to America, where America said that as a capitalist country, we sell anything that can make money.

They even thoughtfully had someone take a picture of them, putting on a very generous act.

However, when negotiating the price, America revealed her true colors: the thing was $5 million apiece, a set of four, not sold individually.

Sold by the set!

Exposing 10 sets!
A group of people still remember the naval high command’s outburst of curses during the mobilization rally.

The curses could be heard several kilometers away.

After the mobilization meeting, a group of people went to various parts of the country for inspections.

A few days ago, I finally found a suitable factory.

The factory manager patted his chest and said that everyone in the factory would do their best to complete the task.

The head of the relevant research institute also patted his chest and said that he would not give up until the task was completed.

Everyone looked like they were ready to give it their all.

But to everyone's surprise, just when the atmosphere was really set, someone suddenly jumped out and said, "You don't need to create this atmosphere. We have the same style as America's here, and it's cheap. Do you want it?"

If you want, I'll give you a few for free!

Damn it!
The older chief engineer, Liao Ping, turned pale and immediately pressed his hand to his chest. Seeing this, the person next to him quickly took out a nitroglycerin pill from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth.

After taking the nitroglycerin pills, Liao Ping's complexion improved slightly. He then stood up and asked Gao Hai:

"Are you sure this is real? It's not like that factory just bought two random ones from a roadside stall and used them to make up the number?"

Gao Hai knew the other party would ask these questions, so he took out his phone, pulled out a photo he had taken at some point, and pointed to the testing station in the photo, saying:
"They also have a complete testing platform!"

Upon hearing that there was a photo, Liao Ping and the others quickly leaned over and, under Gao Hai's guidance, examined the photo. Seeing the testing platform in the photo, the chief engineers finally felt relieved.

Taking a few deep breaths, Liao Ping ran eagerly towards the truck:
"Master, warehouse number 3 over there, come with me!"

"Old Zhao, contact the test stand and tell them to get ready."

"What are you even contacting? This is their standard. We don't even know if our test bench will be usable!"

"Will it work? We'll know once we pull it over and try it!"

Amidst the cacophony of voices, the truck slowly drove toward what they called Warehouse No. 3.

As the cargo was unloaded, the true nature of this so-called barrier cable was finally revealed to everyone.

After observing for more than ten minutes, Gao Hai took out the installation manual from his briefcase and handed it to several chief engineers.

Afterwards, Liao Ping and his group transported these items to the test stand and began assembly.

They worked until late at night before finally installing the barrier cables.

They were very lucky; the mounting holes on the test bench were based on photos taken by the people who went to negotiate at the time.

The installation has some flaws, but it works!

All is ready except for the opportunity.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Liao Ping gently fanned himself with his gloves.

The smell of engine oil on his hands kept entering his nostrils with the breeze, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Once the sweat on his forehead stopped, he turned to look at Gao Hai: "Representative Gao, shall we begin the test now?"

Gao Hai gritted his teeth: "Fine, this thing was a gift from someone else anyway, so what if I break it!"

Liao Ping received the order, turned around, and shouted to the person who had been waiting nearby:
"First test of the aircraft carrier's arresting gear begins!"

"First test: relative speed, 250 km/h; simulated test machine weight, 30 tons. Begin!"

At the command, the researchers, who had been itching to get started, quickly began adjusting the parameters of the test bench.

The weight of the testing machine was adjusted to 30 tons, and the speed was adjusted as well. Then it was quickly dispersed.

The first test, who knows if this thing will malfunction.

A wise person avoids standing under a dangerous wall; they get out of there first.

After the last person left, the alarm sounded a few more times.

Liao Ping waved his hand, and the person at the control panel immediately pressed the switch.

The test machine on the test stand crashed forward at a speed of 250 kilometers per hour.

With a loud bang, the testing machine was forcibly pulled back, bringing it to an abrupt halt!
