Chapter 449 052B with a strong European color

   There has never been such a precedent: Chinese banks lend to foreign companies or government units. Similar projects should have K-8 exporting long-staple cotton to the country, but that was already in 2005, and the amount was only a few hundred million.

  In 1995, lending 5 billion US dollars to foreign countries, in the eyes of many people, this is something that people can't even imagine.

Qin Tao smiled: "The amount of this loan is relatively large, so I discussed with them, installment loans, for example, only lending one billion US dollars a year, and at the same time, the other party will export oil to us through the railway every year. It was almost paid off that year.”

  Leader Zhao nodded. If this is the case, the risk can be greatly reduced.

"This is just the beginning. In the future, we will go to buy oil from all over the world. In order to transport the oil, we need to build oil pipelines locally. At that time, we can all operate in this way. In the future, our banks will get used to it. If we want to continue to grow and develop, banks can't just hang around in our domestic land, they have to enter overseas markets."

   "President Qin, we will contact the bank. If the bank has concerns, I hope you can come forward in person." Leader Zhao continued.

Qin Tao nodded: "Of course. If no domestic bank dares to do this kind of operation, then we can also contact foreign banks, but in this way, the profits will be taken away by others. This kind of loan also requires There is interest, and it’s not low.”

  Leader Zhao nodded.

"President Qin, you have eliminated all the differences between us!" Leader Zhao was very satisfied: "We have been negotiating with Da Mao for more than a year, and there has been no progress. Now , the construction of this pipeline is entirely entrusted to you."

"I'm not doing good deeds either. In order to dispel Da Mao's wariness, I will become an oil middleman." Qin Tao said: "For example, the oil-for-loan exchange will be operated by our Mingzhou Group, and we will buy oil from Da Mao. , and sell it to your oil companies."

  Leader Zhao's face was slightly stiff: "Mr. Qin, do you want to be a second-hand dealer?"

   "There is no way to do this." Qin Tao said: "After all, Da Mao only trusts me. If you directly connect with each other, there may be many changes."

  Leader Zhao nodded: "Yes, Mr. Qin, you are Da Mao's most trustworthy friend. We are all new faces, but..."

"These are only temporary." Qin Tao said: "Many oil companies in Da Mao are now privately owned. All the oil is nationalized, and at that time, our oil company can directly negotiate with the Damao government, after all, the pipeline has been repaired, and it is impossible for Damao to waste this pipeline."

   "Nationalization?" Leader Zhao was taken aback.

When the Red Empire collapsed, the assets of the whole country were evenly distributed to everyone, but in the form of bills, and if you want to cash it, someone has to buy the bills and then obtain the ownership of a certain enterprise, so that Privatization is complete.

  However, after several years, everyone found that this method was inappropriate. Their wealth was in the hands of a few people, and most people became poorer.

  Next, what will Da Mao do?

   Re-control the state-owned assets in the hands of the government, so as to make the country rich and the people strong.

  This judgment was made by Qin Tao, so it is very likely that the prophecy will come true.

  No matter what, without Qin Tao, this agreement cannot be signed.

   "Okay, let's arrange the oil pipeline first. Only after the pipeline is repaired can we talk about other things." Leader Zhao agreed.

  Qin Tao has been busy running around, and he has settled a major issue. He originally planned to stay in a hotel, but after a phone call from his father-in-law, he can only obediently go back to his house to live in.

   "Taozi, once you step out, there is nothing you can't do." It was already dark, and the living room in the small courtyard was lit, and Wu Shengli and Qin Tao were talking at the dining table.

"Well, we must seize this opportunity and lay the oil pipeline. In the future, we will have a stable northern land passage to protect our energy security." Qin Tao said: "After all, we have become a As an oil-importing country, with the continuous development of the economy, more and more oil imports will increase, within a few years, it will increase to 50 million tons, and within ten years, it will cross the 100 million tons mark. It’s too dangerous over the Strait of Malacca.”

  If I said this before, I would definitely be scoffed at. How is it possible? We have Daqing!

   But now, anyone with insight will agree with Qin Tao's prediction. The economy is developing, the number of cars is increasing, and more and more oil resources are needed.

  From the point of view of the navy, the Strait of Malacca is indeed dangerous enough.

   "Only the northern pipeline is not enough. We have to develop diversified oil imports to prevent accidents." Wu Shengli continued.

Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, we must diversify our operations. After a few years, when the oil pipeline with Damao is built, we will find that this oil pipeline is still not enough. At that time, we should consider the west The route has been extended to Gwadar Port, and the oil from Anxi Bay can directly pass through Gwadar Port, transfer to land pipelines, and reach our country. We also have huge oil storage facilities in the construction of Gwadar Port.”

  One line to the north and one line to the west. In this way, two oil pipelines will protect the domestic energy security.

  Although Qin Tao is not interested in being a second-hand trafficker, Gwadar Port is in the hands of the Mingzhou Group and has to be transferred through them, so it is definitely inseparable from them.

Wu Shengli nodded: "Yes, since you proposed this route, the superiors have considered it many times, and formal meetings have been held three or four times. It is indeed a major project to develop the western region and establish the land silk road. strategic vision."

   "I've been thinking about it, but it's still not easy to make up my mind." Qin Tao picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, and said while eating, "After all, this project requires a huge investment of money."

  Wu Shengli had no choice but to smile wryly: "Yes, we have just developed our economy, and we are not that rich yet. It will cost a lot of money to carry out this kind of project!"

   "Need a little stimulation."

"What?"

  Qin Tao smiled, "Let's wait a little longer, maybe a year later, we'll have a chance."

   It was not the first time Wu Shengli had seen his son-in-law's mysterious behavior, so he didn't have anything to say and continued to drink.

   "How is your group's design of the advanced destroyer equipped with domestic Hongqi-9 missiles?" Wu Shengli suddenly asked Qin Tao this question.

  Qin Tao thought: "Are we going to start building this big guy?"

"Currently, the technology at the 14th Institute has made some breakthroughs, and the four-sided phased array can be manufactured, but various problems still need to be solved on the weapon test ship. The gas turbines we manufactured have also begun ignition tests. We estimate that , In two or three years, these technologies should be mature, so the Navy has begun to prepare for the new generation destroyer project, and it is estimated that bidding will be organized in the near future.”

  Qin Tao nodded. Of course he understood that the navy did this to **** the ship in the dock of the Mingzhou Shipyard. A warship without a four-sided phased array radar would simply not be able to undertake the task of escorting an aircraft carrier.

  054 is definitely not qualified.

   "What plan is competing with us?" Qin Tao asked.

The design plan of Mingzhou Group is, of course, the famous 052C, four-sided phased array radar, combined with the front six and rear twenty-eight vertical launch units, so that it can have forty-eight area air defense missiles, allowing the navy to obtain the most urgently needed area air defense destroyer .

  They are confident in their design, but Qin Tao is still very curious, not knowing what the brother unit's design is.

   "We are most optimistic about the Bencheng Shipyard. They commissioned relevant domestic departments to design destroyers based on European plans."

   "Refer to Europe?" Qin Tao became interested: "How did you refer to it?"

   "For example, on the rear mast, use a phased array radar to scan the surrounding airspace by rotating."

   Installing radar on the rear mast, isn't this the plan of the horizon frigate jointly developed by France and Italy? Qin Tao was very curious: "What's the use of their design? One-sided phased-array radar rotates, and the refresh rate of the target is far from comparable to our four-sided phased-array radar!"

  Qin Tao was a little confused by this.

"But it's cheap." Wu Shengli said: "At present, the 14th Institute can already produce this kind of phased array radar, but the processing is very difficult, and the scrap rate is high. If you use a four-sided phased array radar, it will cost a lot. If it is If it is one-sided, it can greatly reduce the procurement cost.”

   Actually to save money?

  Qin Tao was shocked by this logic.

   "So, how to solve the missile guidance problem? How do we achieve anti-saturation attack?"

According to the original plan, the new generation of destroyers will use a four-sided phased array radar, and there will be some C-band targets on each front to illuminate the radar components, so as to have multiple firepower channels to complete the defense mission. If the radar antenna rotates , then how to illuminate the target?

"At the top of the front main mast, four C-band target irradiation radar arrays are installed. In this way, the problem of target irradiation can be solved. Moreover, due to the high altitude, it has the ability to intercept targets flying at ultra-low altitudes." , will be greatly improved.”

   Originally, there was also a four-sided phased array, but it was shrunk and became a separate target irradiation radar, so the area was greatly reduced and the weight was also greatly reduced, which meant that it could be placed higher.

  The benefit brought by this is that it can increase the search capability for low-altitude sea-skimming targets, thereby achieving better interception effects.

   Not only solves the cost problem, but also improves performance!

  When Qin Tao heard of this plan, he was shocked. This kind of scheme seems to be very popular in later generations. For example, the German F-124 took this route.

Looking at Qin Tao's appearance, Wu Shengli smiled: "How is it? Are you afraid? Our navy is already considering the design plan of the Bincheng Shipyard. They do have many excellent design ideas, especially to solve our problem. The cost issue. Many people like this kind of frigate. Of course, everyone is also saying, thanks to you."

Thank me?

  Qin Tao was very curious: "Thank you for what?"

"If it wasn't for the competition you proposed, then our domestic design units would only think conservatively and would not engage in innovation, but now, as our competition continues to strengthen, in order to win the navy's contract, the relevant units have to Pull out all the stops, how about it, Taozi, are you afraid?"

  When Wu Shengli asked this, he looked at Qin Tao meaningfully.

  Your Mingzhou is indeed very advanced and ahead of the curve, but if you think that you will be able to overwhelm the crowd, that is not necessarily the case!

  This time, let's see how you respond.

  Wu Shengli smiled jokingly. He had never seen his son-in-law deflated before, and this was the first time he had seen his son-in-law's expression at this moment.

  Of course, even if the Mingzhou Group really fails, it’s nothing. After all, the Mingzhou Group already has many projects, including aircraft carriers, which are all refitted in the Mingzhou Group. If they eat meat, they must let other brother units eat soup.

   "Of course not." Qin Tao said: "This solution does seem to save costs, but it also has a big disadvantage."

  Disadvantage?

  Wu Shengli is full of interest: "What disadvantage?"

"We're going to deploy a meter wave radar in the back of this place. The function of this kind of radar is to detect stealth aircraft. Now, if we poke our S-band phased array radar here, it can still rotate. Even if we have 300 It has a detection capability of more than 10000 kilometers, and has enough target refresh capability, but what about the threat of stealth aircraft?"

  In this era, stealth aircraft has become very popular. Countries with stealth aircraft are very proud. Others fly freely in the sky. What about countries without stealth aircraft? On the one hand, we must find a way to develop stealth machines, and on the other hand, we must find ways to counter stealth machines.

   To fight against a stealth machine, you must first discover it. If you can't find it, everything is useless.

The principle of the stealth machine determines that it only has a stealth effect in the microwave. The shorter the wavelength, the better the effect. When it comes to the meter wave band, the stealth ability is very poor. Its so-called polyhedron, its so-called wave-absorbing coating, Neither is effective against Meepo.

  So, according to Qin Tao's vision, the rear of the destroyer, above the hangar, is to poke a meter wave antenna. After the meter wave radar discovers the stealth aircraft, it can call the phased array radar to irradiate a large number of electromagnetic waves, so that the target data can be accurately measured to meet the needs of missile interception. If there is no meter wave radar to detect in advance, then the phased array radar will not irradiate a large amount of electromagnetic waves. It is difficult to detect stealth aircraft from a long distance in the usual way of scanning the airspace.

   Now, the back becomes a single-board phased array radar. Where should the meter wave radar be placed?

  In addition to detecting stealth aircraft, meter wave radar is also used for long-range warning. After all, this kind of radar has mature technology, long life, low power consumption, and can be turned on for a long time. Phased array radar is only turned on during wartime.

"If this active phased array radar array is stamped, then it is bound to be turned on as the main warning radar when warships go to sea in the future. I don't know how long this thing will last, thousands of hours, or tens of thousands of hours. ? The warship has been at sea for five years, does it have to be replaced? Is this saving money, or is it costing money?”

  Wu Shengli nodded: "We never thought about it like this before, but now hearing what you say, it is indeed a problem!"

   It cannot be turned on for a long time, and it cannot detect stealth devices. These shortcomings make this design a tasteless one.

   "Of course, the navy may like this design, because its biggest advantage is saving money." Qin Tao continued calmly: "However, the navy may have forgotten what are the characteristics of our military industry."

  In later generations, this design has become a trend, and many warships in Europe are using it. On the one hand, it is because there is no tradition of using meter wave radar in Europe, and on the other hand, it is also because of money.

   Expensive! This kind of flat-panel phased array radar is too expensive to manufacture. If there are four large boards on top, it looks awesome, but who can afford it?

   are all poor.

  Europe has money, but the price of electronic products manufactured in Europe is also quite high.

  What are your advantages?

"No matter what complicated device it is, as long as it is conquered by us, it will be mass-produced in the future, and it can be made into a cabbage price. Don't look at the high price now. In a few years, the price of our four-sided shield will drop significantly. , it might be even lower than the current cost.”

  This is the advantage of our own side: make the tall things into cabbage prices!

In later generations, the West will look at the Eastern Aegis warships one after another, just like making dumplings. Even if it looks sour on the surface, I don’t know how envious they are. They can’t afford this money because they are too expensive to produce. , while the price of domestic phased array radar is already very cheap.

  Even when it came to the 003 aircraft carrier, all the radar antennas were replaced with flat-panel phased array antennas, which looked mighty and domineering.

  Now the Navy wants to reduce construction costs, so it is very interested in the proposal of the Bencheng Shipyard. What about in the future? When it becomes cheaper in the future, can you still look at that kind of compromise product?

   "Taozi, what you said, why did I start to worry about the Bincheng Shipyard? I thought you would be anxious!"

Qin Tao smiled: "The route we take will definitely not make mistakes. Of course, if the navy can purchase that kind of warships for the time being to save money, in the future, it is probably time to worry about their modification. .”

   "Yes." Wu Shengli sighed: "We really need to be considerate. Maybe we can also order two kinds of warships at the same time. One is called 052B and the other is called 052C. What do you think?"

  Thinking of this, Wu Shengli became excited again: "That's right, that's it. We will purchase two kinds of warships at the same time. The quantity does not need to be large. We will purchase one for each, test it first, and then determine which is more suitable."

  Right now, the Navy is taking small steps and running fast. The number of warships of all kinds is not large. One or two ships will be built and the technology will be verified. It is not yet time for a large number of dumplings.

   "Do as you like." Qin Tao said irresponsibly: "This has nothing to do with our Mingzhou Group. You are the ones who make the final decision. By the way, Dad, I'm tired, where should I sleep tonight?"

   "We sleep in the same room, we can talk again at night."

   "I don't, you snore!"

   "You don't? That's fine, I still want to talk about the superior's plan to visit the Dongfang Sea Blockade."

"All right."

the next day.

   "Mr. Yalevsky, Mr. Berezovsky, I am very happy that our project has finally reached a consensus!" Leader Zhao was very happy: "This project is beneficial to both of us."

"Yes, we are also very happy. After signing the agreement today, we will return to Moscow and report to our superiors. At most one month, our oil pipeline will officially break ground. This project will also drive our domestic related oil, There are too many benefits from the development of the construction industry." Yalevsky was very happy.

  For Damao, economic development is not easy. This infrastructure project will bring about a large number of jobs. Give their economy a shot in the arm.

   "We also look forward to the rapid progress of this project. As long as you start construction, our domestic oil pipeline will start construction as soon as possible. At most five years, our pipeline will be able to officially start supplying oil." Leader Zhao nodded.

"As an international practice, in addition to the Russian and Chinese versions of our contract, we also need to have a French version. If various clauses cannot be fulfilled, we will also file a lawsuit with the relevant international court." Berezovsky Said.

  Although he has a good relationship with Qin Tao, the main body of this cooperation is the Chinese oil company after all, and he does not trust it very much.

   "Of course, we will keep our promise, and hope that you can complete the project on time." The big leader who came to the signing ceremony specially expressed his opinion.

  A lot of agreements have been signed, including oil pipeline agreements, loan agreements, and oil import agreements by rail.

  Mingzhou Group is the main body of the railway import agreement. Qin Tao also attended the meeting and signed his name on it.

  This project is finally finalized!

   "It's spring now, and your land is convenient for construction. I hope you can hurry up and not delay our construction period." The leader said solemnly to the other party.

   "Of course we can't delay the construction period. We are still waiting for the oil pipeline to be completed, so that export will be easier." Berezovsky said.

  With the signing, this major project has finally taken an important step. When it is repaired, it is estimated that it will be two thousand years. Therefore, this project is also called the century project, and it has been reported by various media.

   Soon, the news spread all over the world.

   Some people were extremely dissatisfied with this, and started jumping up and down in Moscow.

   PS: At two o'clock in the afternoon, ten bursts.
