Chapter 279 Cleaning up the portal

Snapped! Tumanski slammed the photo Qin Tao handed over on the table, and he was really angry.

  At the beginning, he couldn't work anymore, so he handed over the design bureau to Fedotov, but he never thought that Fedotov would betray the design bureau! He has frequent contacts with Americans just to benefit himself!

For an old man like Tumansky, the meaning of the existence of the Red Empire is to confront the West. Now, even if the Cold War is over and the confrontation is gone, he can bear it if he wants to sit and eat with his former opponents. However, it is absolutely unacceptable to sell one's own secrets to opponents, and it is even more unacceptable if some people privately sell secrets to the West for their own benefit.

   Tumansky was angry in his heart.

"Americans have always liked to use sugar-coated bullets to bribe and win over certain people. Fedotov must have received a lot of benefits. It is because of people like him that the country has become what it is now." Qin Tao continued.

"That's right, that's it!" Tumansky said: "Although I am old, I can still clear up the scum of a few design bureaus, Qin, thank you, by the way, how do you know so much ?”

   "Because we want to purchase the R-79 engine, including all technical materials, production processes, etc." Qin Tao carefully chose his words: "It's like what we did back then."

   If there is no suitable reason, it is easy for Tumansky to react. It is a retaliation from a business competitor, and it must be raised to the spiritual realm.

  Lao Maozi and the Americans are not the same people. They used to be rivals and confronted each other for decades. Then, they were fooled into losing their martial arts. Now, they destroyed the house and came to grab the things in the house!

  Our side is different, we were friends before, we have traded like this before, now, we just repeat what we did in the past, let our friendship last forever!

After Qin Tao finished speaking, it was almost the same time. He looked at Tumanski: "Tomorrow, we will formally contact with the people from the design bureau. Don't worry about this matter. After all, you are old. ..."

   "I'm getting older, and I have to take care of this matter!" Tumanski said loudly, "Hmph, do you really think I have no abilities?"

the next day.

   "Welcome friends from afar." Fedotov greeted Qin Tao and others with a smile on his face.

   "You are all elites in the Eastern aviation engine industry, welcome to visit our design bureau."

"We heard that the Jacques-141 project has been officially cancelled, which means that the R-79 engine specially prepared for the Jacques-141 is no longer suitable for installation." Fang is very interested in the engine and hopes to conduct detailed negotiations to introduce the technology of this engine back.”

Hearing Mr. Jiang's words, Fedotov immediately shook his head: "I think there is some misunderstanding on your side. Our R-79 engine has not yet considered selling the technology to the outside world. After all, this is the most advanced fighter jet in our country. engine."

"The most advanced fighter engine?" Qin Tao smiled: "Shouldn't it be the AL-41F from Rurika-Saturn? This engine is the one prepared for your fourth-generation aircraft. Why, you guys?" The R-79 engine is actually an alternative solution?"

   "How do you know?" Fedotov was taken aback.

   In terms of fourth-generation aircraft, confidentiality requirements are still very high. In the Soviet era, if Qin Tao said this, someone from the KGB would immediately take him away for investigation.

After the collapse of the Red Empire, the project lost its source of funding, but the lean camel was bigger than a horse. The Mikoyan Design Bureau still insisted on building the MiG 1.44. Now it is estimated that it is raising funds to build a prototype. Therefore, the news Leakage is also possible.

   However, even so, the information from Qin Tao's mouth still shocked Fedotov.

   These people here are very professional!

  Their design bureau has been going downhill over the years, and it is left to provide engines for the equally marginalized Yakovlev Design Bureau. Their R-79 engine sounds powerful, but it is incomparable with Lyurika-Saturn. The AL-41F engine with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 11 is already being manufactured there as a power system for fourth-generation fighter jets. .

  The engine over there is the most promising. The engine on their side has lost the installation target, and the future is not optimistic at all.

   Now, people from the east should be happy to purchase their technology, but Fedotov's attitude made other people present also very curious.

"If you ask this, it is true." Qin Tao said: "Since there is no target for installation and it is not a national key project, then why are you unwilling to export this engine technology to us? Is there something unspeakable? ?”

   "Of course not." Fedotov said: "We welcome you to come to visit and inspect, but it is impossible to buy our technology!"

   "Mr. Fedotov, can you tell us why? Do you keep the R-79 engine and want to lay golden eggs?"

  The people present wanted to laugh, after all, Qin Tao's description was too funny, but they couldn't laugh anymore, and the atmosphere in the meeting room became weird.

   Bang!

   At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open.

  A hale and hearty old man walked in, followed by two middle-aged people he didn't know.

   "Mr. Tumanski?"

"teacher!"

   "Master!"

   All kinds of names were called out, and Fedotov hurried to meet him.

"Master, why are you here? You are so old, don't go out and walk around if you have nothing to do. If you have something to do, you can call." Fedotov is very respectful. In front of Tumansky, he is a student .

   "Huh." Tumansky glanced at Fedotov: "I'm not old yet!"

  Qin Tao's heart is full of joy, the drama of cleaning up the house will be staged soon! These people, just sit here and watch the show.

   No, of course not sitting down.

  Everyone stood up and looked at Tumanski. This is the master of the engine, and Mr. Jiang and Mr. Liu present are also students. For this old senior, of course, he should respectfully stand up and greet him.

  Tumansky sat down on Fedotov's main seat with a serious face, and the two people he brought stood behind him.

   Sitting next to Tumansky, Fedotov was still wondering, what's going on?

  In the past, he was a popular man under Tumansky's subordinates. Otherwise, after Tumansky left, how could he be righted? Even if Tumanski retired, he would visit him on holidays.

  How could the teacher be dissatisfied with himself?

   Fedotov did not understand.

   After sitting down, Tumansky said to Qin Tao and the others: "Friends from the East, do you have any requests?"

"Great senior Tumansky, it's a pleasure to meet you. We are here this time to introduce the full set of technology of the R-79 engine, including processing technology, materials and equipment, etc. We will import all of them in a package. Just like when we introduced the MiG-21 engine."

Tumansky nodded: "It turns out that this is the case. That engine has lost its installation target. It is useless for us to keep it. The current situation of the design bureau and the alliance factory is not optimistic. If you can get a large amount of money by selling technology If so, it will be beneficial to our design bureau, Fedotov, what do you think?"

   Fedotov was muttering in his heart, Tumansky came to entertain Eastern guests today, there must be something wrong with it, maybe it was the Oriental who tipped him off.

  His heart was full of resentment, but the teacher was beside him and had already expressed his attitude, so it was inconvenient for him to refuse.

what to do?

  Fedotov's face turned red and white for a while, and it took a full minute before he nodded: "It is also possible to want the technology of the R-79 engine, but the vector nozzle technology cannot be sold."

"Why?"

   "Because, there are a lot of our secrets in it, and we don't want this secret to be known by other countries." Fedotov gritted his teeth and said.

Snapped!

  Tumansky slapped the table. At such an age, he slapped the table so loudly, which made Qin Tao feel a little bit emotional, he is getting stronger and stronger!

   "Fedotov, are you really trying to keep the secret from other countries?" Tumansky's face was extremely gloomy: "Or is there another secret?"

  Fedotov's face changed drastically. Did the teacher already know?

   Impossible, impossible!

"No."

   "Then tell me, what's going on?" Tumansky said, putting a few photos on the table.

When seeing those photos, Fedotov's body began to tremble, but he still said stiffly: "This is just an ordinary American friend. Since the collapse of the Red Empire, many of our design bureau personnel have had close contact with the West. My handover A few American friends, why not?"

   "That's right, making friends is not against the law, but if you accept a large sum of money from others and then betray the secrets of the design bureau, you will be shot for such behavior."

"I didn't, I didn't betray any secrets." Fedotov argued vigorously. He looked at the Oriental man across from him, trying to understand something, pointed at Qin Tao and others, and cursed: "You **** guys , You are the ones who provoked my mentor to cause trouble, aren't you? You shit-eating fellows!"

   "If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. Now that you have done it, you must have the courage to face reality." Qin Tao glanced at Fedotov, neither affirming nor denying.

   "Master, please believe me, I did nothing." Fedotov said.

   "Didn't do anything? Then tell me, how did you get your Mercedes-Benz luxury car? How did you get the balance of half a million dollars in your account?"

   Fedotov knelt down on the ground with a plop: "Master, I don't, I don't..."

"These words, you should talk to the people in the Security Bureau!" Tumansky glanced at the people behind: "Grushko, please, if he really betrayed our state secrets and enriched himself, Then absolutely don’t tolerate it!”

  Although there is no conclusive evidence, the source of those huge properties cannot be explained, so Fedotov is very suspicious.

  However, behavior like Fedotov’s is too common in Da Mao’s place now. Which design bureau director has had a clean ass? However, the problem is that no one reported it!

In particular, it was Tumansky who made the report. He contacted a leader of the Security Bureau, all of whom were acquaintances. As it happened, facing the current complicated problems in the country and the anger of the people, the higher-ups needed to use some means to prove that When it comes to fighting corruption, they are serious.

  So, Fedotov just hit the muzzle of the gun and became a chicken that kills a chicken for monkeys to see.

   However, watching Fedotov being dragged away, the eyes of other people in the design bureau in the conference room became complicated.

   Crash!

   At this moment, Tumanski suddenly picked up the small bag he brought, opened the mouth, and dumped all the contents on the table.

  When they saw the things on the table clearly, the expressions of these people changed.

   Those are medals one after another! These medals represent a person's glorious past. Even Tumanski has not received so many medals. Only the founder of their design bureau, Chief Mikulin, has such honors!

"This one is the medal given when the 1,200-horsepower high-power AM-35A engine was successfully developed and Chief Mikulin was awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor for the first time." Tumansky picked up one and introduced .

   "This one is the first Order of Lenin awarded by Chief Mikulin. At that time, he designed our first jet engine."

  …

  As the second chief engineer of the design bureau, Tumanski is very clear about the origin of these honors, because this is not only the honor of Mikulin, but also the honor of their design bureau!

  Now, he is speaking slowly like this, as if talking about their history.

  No one interrupted him, everyone was listening quietly.

  Finally, after finishing the last piece, Tumansky looked at everyone: "Do you know how I got these medals?"

  Everyone shook their heads.

"After Master Mikulin left, these medals fell into the hands of Mikulin." Tumansky said: "Mikulin's son Ivan was seriously ill and needed a sum of money, so he just To be able to sell these medals, these guests from the east, seeing Mikulin, bought all these medals, treated Ivan’s illness, and then gave me all these medals.”

   If you deduce it carefully, this kind of behavior can be regarded as bribery in disguise. However, Tumansky said it openly here, and no one dared to question it.

"Now, I take out these medals because I want to return them to the guests in the east. I am a person who will leave at any time. It is useless to ask for these medals. After I leave, maybe I will be sold by my unsatisfactory descendants Drop it." Tumansky said: "Qin, please take back these medals."

"These medals represent the glory of Master Mikulin, and I absolutely can't take them." Qin Tao shook his head quickly: "If you don't plan to keep them, how about leaving them in the Design Bureau? The information left here It can also be used as a small exhibition hall, so that all new recruits can receive an ideological education. No matter how the society changes, they must be like the former chief Mikulin, for the aviation industry and for the motherland. , Contribute your youth and even your life!"

  Hearing Qin Tao's words, Tumanski's heart was excited for a while, yes, it would be great if these medals could stay here.

   "Over the years, I have also won a lot of honors. I am also willing to contribute my medals and leave them in the design bureau for future generations to see and let them know what the meaning of my life is!"

  This matter, even if the dust settles like this.

For Qin Tao, the $30,000 was a waste of money, but the $30,000 had an unexpected effect. After Tumansky's emotion, the people on the other side looked at Qin Tao and the others. Everything has changed.

"Our country has become what it is now, and the West has to bear full responsibility. Although we can't go back, we must keep our eyes open and see clearly who is our enemy. Other units in society , The factory, I can’t control it, but here, we must make it clear that we can never do business with the Americans!” Tumansky continued.

   "Yeah, I've been watching a program relayed by the East recently. The person in it made a very reasonable analysis. The decline of our country is caused by the West!"

   "That's right, I've watched this show too. I didn't think about it before, but now that I think about it, it's really scary!"

  Qin Tao sighed in his heart, Zhang Zhong has gained foreign fans! He will definitely be a competent bureau seat in the future.

   As for myself, keep a low profile.

   "Yakimov, you should be the deputy chief designer of our design bureau, right? During this period of time, you should take on the task of chief engineer first." Tumansky looked at a middle-aged engineer beside him.

  Yakimov, who was named, was very excited. He didn't expect that he would have such a good opportunity. Of course, he also knew what Tumansky meant.

"Our Design Bureau currently does not receive any funding from the government. If we want to continue to study our projects, then we must raise funds by ourselves." Yakimov said: "Guests from the East want to purchase our products." We can provide the complete set of production technology of the R-79 engine, including equipment, processes, materials and other information. We can conduct detailed negotiations now."

   "Okay, then you can talk here, I am old and need to go back to rest." Tumanski said.

  When he first came in, he was still not convinced, but now, he really feels exhausted.

  Tumansky left the conference room, and the people present discussed enthusiastically.

   "Our R-79 engine is a two-stage axial flow engine, and its bypass ratio is 1... At the design stage, we also considered the use of rectangular nozzles, but the technical difficulty was too great and we gave up."

   Rectangular nozzle?

  Qin Tao wrote down this thing, and always felt that he could use this to make a fuss!

  Tumansky did not leave, but came to the chief designer's room. The place where he used to work has now been searched up and down.

   "We found copies of some vector nozzle materials." Glushko said to Tumansky: "According to the confidentiality regulations, these materials should not be kept in backup by the chief engineer."

Tumansky nodded: "The evidence is conclusive. Americans don't covet our engine technology, because their own engine technology is already very powerful, especially reliability and lifespan, which far exceed ours. Bearing-rotating vectoring nozzles are very interesting, and now they have bought Fedotov, they are so naive, and they want to get our most advanced technology for only half a million."

  Tumansky has mixed feelings.

   That evening.

   "Mr. Qin, our current progress is very smooth. However, the Tumansky Design Bureau cannot make the decision. The technology introduction plan we formed still needs to be handed over to the higher-level department for approval. Will there be any problems?"

"If nothing is arranged, there will definitely be problems. Those officials and gentlemen may delay our purchase project for two or three years, so we still need a fund for activities." Qin Tao said: "I can't bear to Children can’t catch wolves, and since the superiors have decided to purchase, they can’t be afraid of spending money.”

   "Do you still need activity funds?"

"Yes, at least one million U.S. dollars." Qin Tao said: "With the size of our Mingzhou Shipbuilding Group, we definitely don't look down on your funds, so don't worry, every penny is spent wisely Yes, definitely worth it."

"All right."

   "By the way, what shall we do next?"

"Of course it is to write a news article and disclose this matter. The person in charge of the Tumansky Design Bureau accepted bribes from the Americans and leaked state secrets." Qin Tao said: "This news must be made known to the outside world. OK."

   "This kind of news report is hard to be published, right?"

   "If it is someone else, it is difficult, but for me, it is not difficult."

  Qin Tao has many identities, for example, a reporter for Liberty News!

  As long as it doesn’t show a particularly strong pertinence, it’s not a problem to just report this matter, unlike Zhang Zhong who exposed the old background of the Western world.

  After I went back, I wrote the report and made a phone call, and I was pleasantly surprised there.

  In the bar near the hotel, sitting on the booth that had fooled Xiaomi Kulin, Qin Tao looked at the girl opposite.

   "Vitalia, long time no see, are you okay?"

   "Well, very good, Qin, you said you want to publish the manuscript, let me have a look?"

  Vitalia reached out, took Qin Tao's manuscript, and read it again: "The person who came into contact with Fedotov is your competitor?"

   "Of course not, I'm just a messenger of justice."

  Vitalia smiled: "Qin, you are always so humorous, how is Zhao?"

she? I've been too busy recently, even if I passed by Huating, I would only stay for a short time, and I really rarely spend time with my wife.

  Hongqi-16 project, what progress has it made?

   Just one question made Qin Tao feel homesick.

  Vitalia smiled: "I really envy Zhao, there is such a dedicated person like you."

   At this moment, the bar owner came over and said to Qin Tao with a smile: "There is a call for you."

  The calls are actually coming here?

  Qin Tao walked over, picked up the phone, and when he heard what was said clearly, his face changed abruptly.
