Farnborough International Airport, Hampshire, United Kingdom

The weather in Britain in September was cool and pleasant, but it could not stop the enthusiasm of the air show. In the first week of September 1991, the biennial Farnborough International Aerospace Exhibition was held as scheduled.

Unlike previous airshows, this year's Farnborough was filled with the joy of a winner from the inside to the outside.

At the beginning of the year, a multinational force headed by the United States swept across Iraq and liberated Kuwait.

The domestic situation in the Soviet Union continued to be turbulent in the year, and the republics were ready to move. Until the 819 incident last month, the internal contradictions in the Soviet Union broke out. Then the three Baltic countries took the lead in independence, followed by Belarus, Georgia, and Moldova.

So far, the formerly powerful Soviet Union has actually fallen apart.

In less than a year, the thunder of the West swept across the Middle East; the East fell and fell apart, and people were witnessing history while celebrating the advent of a new era.

As one of the world's three major airshows, Farnborough Airshow captured people's hearts and made this airshow especially festive.

Not only have participating countries set a historical record, exhibitors have reached a saturation point.

Especially in the United States, not to mention that American aviation companies are all out. The U.S. Air Force also ran over to join in the fun, lined up the main aircraft that participated in the Gulf War, and paved the most eye-catching exhibition area.

As a result, the local British media exclaimed that the air show was not so much a commercial exposition, but more of a show off after the US Air Force's victory.

The U.S. Air Force responded more bluntly to the media’s outspoken comments: "The U.S. Air Force used this air show to convey an indisputable fact to its allies and other good countries. The powerful U.S. military is the world’s security affairs. Guarantee."

If this is the case before, the U.S. Air Force dare to say this, even if the Soviet Air Force and the Homeland Defense Air Force do not teach the U.S. Air Force to "be human" every minute, it will reveal the meaning of the biceps.

But now that the Soviet Union is dying, not to mention the bright biceps, and it doesn't even have the strength to bark teeth, so the U.S. military is naturally arrogant and domineering.

With the support of the U.S. Air Force, the confidence in the manufacturing of large, medium and small aerospace companies in the United States is naturally surprisingly strong. Although it is not strong to buy and sell at the air show, the overall transaction volume is still showing due to the United States' technological advantage in aerospace dominance. One-sided trend.

In particular, aviation giants such as Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, Northrop, Lockheed, and Grumman accounted for more than half of the entire air show transaction volume.

In contrast, the local aviation manufacturers in Europe will be embarrassed a lot, especially Airbus, although they have also won orders at the air show, they are far from comparable to similar American manufacturers in terms of quality and quantity.

Even some of the aircraft orders were reached through other transactions between governments. The posture is the same as that of domestic marriages, baby-bearing and banquets, and the guests come and follow them.

How much is a meaning, the key is to maintain the relationship between the two countries. As for orders like Airbus, people really don't care.

Faced with this situation, European aviation manufacturing companies such as Airbus can't even feel depressed.

However, compared to Director Zhao, who is depressed in Europe, who led the Chinese team to participate in the air show, it is insignificant. You must know that he has been chased by a bunch of Western media reporters and asked:

Does the aircraft produced in China use high-end aviation materials from the Ascendas series?

As the competent authority of China's aerospace industry, has it launched an investigation into the bad behavior of Ascendas Group?

Director Zhao is not answering, or not answering, no way, these western media are too good at digging holes, let alone answering, as long as you hesitate for a few seconds in front of the camera, the TV news in the afternoon will dare to say that you are guilty. They dare not face reporters' questions.

Director Zhao was almost crazy, and wanted to throw this fellow Zhuang Jianye out to face the media bombardment.

However, what made him even more depressed was that Zhuang Jianye, who was supposed to come over to participate in the air show, turned out to be three days after the opening of the air show and no one was seen.

If it weren't for the occasional call from Zhuang Jianye, Director Zhao would have thought that the goods had evaporated.

Of course, affected by the high-end aviation materials of Ascendas, the trading volume of domestic aerospace manufacturers is basically as bad as no friends, but compared to other countries that put money first, this includes Zhao The leaders of the aerospace department, including the director, shouldn't say anything about it.

Because even if there is no such thing as Tengfei high-end aviation materials, with the current status of the domestic aviation industry, it is also difficult to achieve much breakthrough.

This has been verified from the practice at all major international air shows in the past few years.

Therefore, the keynote of Director Zhao leading the exhibition is very clear, that is to learn with a pious attitude. After all, these large-scale international airshows show the latest developments and new achievements of the world's aerospace, which is in development. For the domestic aviation industry at this stage, it is an excellent platform to track world-class technology.

Of course, if there is an order, it is better to overfulfill the task of the exhibition. If not, it does not matter. Learning is better than everything.

With this mentality, Director Zhao’s pursuit of Western media reporters can hide and hide. Anyway, the main purpose is not to run orders. There is no need to show in the media. As the saying goes, if you have no desires, I can’t play with you. I can’t hide. ?

No, I just received a call from Zhuang Jianye. I was telling this kid to escape, but he accidentally ran into a bunch of reporters. Director Zhao hung up the phone without saying a word, turned his head and ran away like a rabbit. It's gone.

...

"The Chinese official named Zhao was too cunning. He turned around and ran when he saw us."

Jennifer Taylor ambush Director Zhao in advance, preparing to be caught off guard. It is impossible for Director Zhao to turn around without saying anything. This made Taylor very depressed. He returned to his seat in the air show area and held the recording equipment in his hand. Throw it into Liszt's arms: "Next time you go, I don't like those Chinese who are as timid as a mouse."

Liszt took over the recording equipment used for interviews, took out a bottle of soda water, unscrewed it and handed it to Taylor, smiled and said: "Chinese people are not as timid as rats, they are just not good at expressing."

"No, in my opinion, they are as timid as a mouse, even the media dare not face it. What else can they do? Do they just bury their heads in the sand to hide the truth? Do you think it’s Mr. Oldheim !" Taylor drank two sips of soda, then glanced at Oldheim next to Liszt with a pair of beautiful eyes.

Oldheim was a little lost by Taylor's graceful figure and **** eyes, but he soon reacted and laughed: "You are right, Miss Taylor, when you took off their camouflage coat, they I lost everything. It's ridiculous to say that I was actually afraid of the high-end aviation materials of the Ascendas system. Thanks to the help of Mr. Liszt, I realized that they were completely vain."

Hearing this ~lightnovelpub.net~ Liszt didn't speak, but the confident smile on that slightly blessed face said it all, and Tyler also lost his breath at this time. Sitting next to Liszt, he gave Liszt a kiss directly, and then he hugged Liszt’s arm and asked, “What’s the next flight show?”

"It seems to be a folk performance team in Slovakia. What model is it using?" Liszt couldn't remember for a moment, and Ordheim next to him quickly said: "L-39c'Albatross' advanced trainer."

"It's l-39c again. How many times has it been since the start of the air show... Hmm? That was..."

Taylor was a little disappointed when he heard the words, but as soon as he complained, the rest got stuck in his throat, because behind the two l-39c planes in the sky, two people flying with wings suddenly appeared. Seeing this, Taylor A pair of beautiful big eyes opened immediately, and the whole person opened his mouth wide in surprise.

It's not just Taylor. Liszt and Oldheim were shocked and speechless when they saw this scene. However, they soon changed from astonishment to shock, because in the next moment, the big screen next to the stand showed a picture in the sky. On the back of the flying man, there is a line of big characters written in elegant Chinese red:

China·Tengfei
