Chapter 135: Heading North Again, the Bear Targets the Gas Turbine
The 077 Mechanical Arsenal is responsible for providing funds and helping the Yan Country Navy design and develop new warships.
It was a very good deal for the 077 Mechanical Arsenal.
It’s no wonder that Lin Chenran was secretly happy. After all, this cooperation made him very satisfied.
"Mr. Song, the 704 Shipyard is a bit far from our 077 Mechanical Arsenal, so we need to send several senior executives there. Do you have any suitable candidates?" Lin Chenran asked Song Xiyun.
Then, Song Xiyun reported the names of several senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory, and Lin Chenran agreed with them.
"Mr. Song, then you can arrange it!" Lin Chenran said.
"The 704 Shipyard will become an important part of our factory and must be strictly supervised," Lin Chenran emphasized.
Due to the long distance, supervision and management do need to be strengthened.
"I will emphasize to them that this concerns the interests of our entire 077 Mechanical Arsenal, and they will take it seriously."
Song Xiyun knew the pros and cons involved, so he would discuss these matters with those senior executives.
……
Then Lin Chenran continued, "Mr. Song, in a week, I will continue to head north to the Mao Xiong."
Song Xiyun asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Northward Mao Xiong?"
Lin Chenran smiled and explained, "We went to the North to see how the international trade of our 077 Machinery Military Factory was developing, and we also wanted to 'find some new things' from them."
He paused, then continued, "The main thing is to see if there is a chance to obtain gas turbines from the Russians. You also know that the Aegis missile destroyers are in short supply of gas turbines."
Song Xiyun nodded with sudden realization.
Although the Aegis missile destroyer in the parallel world uses the Eagle Sauce's LM2500 gas turbine.
But we can't put all our hopes on this.
That's why we have two plans, Plan A and Plan B.
There is currently no corresponding gas turbine technology and we can only rely on foreign imports.
As a big country, Russia possesses advanced military equipment and technology, so it has become one of their important targets for obtaining gas turbines.
Lin Chenran continued: "Moreover, the current bear has changed a lot compared to a year ago."
"The domestic situation in Russia is extremely tense and unstable, which is a good opportunity for us to fish in troubled waters."
And this time they want the navy's gas turbines.
This is easier to do.
After all, Kovlevich and Leo Gago are senior officials of the Far East Fleet.
……
Time passes by quickly like a white horse passing by, and disappears in the blink of an eye.
Lin Chenran led several senior executives from the 077 Mechanical Military Factory and embarked on a journey to the northern Russian bear.
After a period of travel, they finally arrived in Vladivostok.
Lin Chenran immediately held a brief but important meeting with his senior executives who were in charge of the international trade route between Yan Country and the Russian Bear.
Through this meeting, he gained an in-depth understanding of the huge profits his own 077 Machinery Military Factory had earned from this international trade route.
At the same time, we also have a clearer understanding of the current situation in the country of Russia.
As Lin Chenran expected, the situation in the Russian bear country became increasingly tense, and various unstable factors continued to emerge.
This made Lin Chenran very happy.
The more chaotic the place, the more opportunities there are to fish in troubled waters. …
After the brief meeting, Lin Chenran called Kovlevich without hesitation and invited him to meet at the Red Romantic Tavern.
When Kovlevich learned that Lin Chenran had arrived in Vladivostok, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and his voice unconsciously rose octaves: "What? Lin, you actually came to Vladivostok! How is this possible? Are you kidding me?"
Facing Kovlevich's exaggerated reaction, Lin Chenran smiled slightly and responded firmly: "Of course not, Kovlevich, I have indeed arrived in Vladivostok and found a hotel nearby to stay. We will meet at the Red Romantic Tavern to discuss in detail."
Hearing this news, Kovlevich was filled with excitement and immediately replied, "Okay, Lin, I'll come to you right away."
"Welcome to the bear again, to Vladivostok."
An excited smile appeared on Kovlevich's face and his eyes were shining with anticipation.
He knew that Lin Chenran's arrival meant that the two sides would continue to deepen their cooperation, which was a rare opportunity for them.
The two chatted on the phone for a while and then hung up.
After Kovlevich hung up the phone, he couldn't wait to get up and go to the Red Romantic Tavern to welcome Lin Chenran.
On the other side, Lin Chenran also made some preparations, and then went to the Red Romantic Tavern with several senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Arsenal.
Soon, they all arrived at the Red Romantic Tavern. Kovlevich and Lin Chenran arrived at the door of the Red Romantic Tavern one after the other.
"Lin, welcome to the Russian Bear again." Kovlevich said enthusiastically.
"Thank you, Davari. If you hadn't been taking care of our business, we wouldn't have been able to conduct business smoothly in Russia." Lin Chenran expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
After chatting for a while, everyone put their hands on each other's shoulders and walked into the Red Romantic Tavern together.
Kovlevich was a frequent visitor here, so when he walked in, a bartender immediately came up to him and asked, "Mr. Kovlevich, is it the same as usual today?"
Kovlevich replied generously: "Yes, give each of us a bottle of vodka."
After he finished speaking, he added: "If it's not enough, add more later."
After hearing this, the bartender smiled professionally and turned to prepare the vodka that Kovlevich needed.
Soon, the bartender brought the vodka that Kovlevich ordered to him, and said, "Mr. Kovlevich, please enjoy!"
"Dear guests, please enjoy your meal!"
Then the bartender left!
Kovlevich skillfully picked up the vodka on the table and opened it, then touched Lin Chenran's vodka and took a big gulp: "Come on, Lin, drink."
Lin Chenran on the side slowly opened the vodka and took a big sip immediately afterwards.
After Lin Chenran took a big gulp of the wine, his expression didn't change at all.
The senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory who had never seen Lin Chenran drinking showed a surprised look.
Our own factory manager, a little cow, stood upside down - so awesome.
The alcohol content of vodka is very high. If an ordinary person drinks a big gulp at once, he will definitely "fall down".
Then, Lin Chenran asked the senior executives of his own 077 Mechanical Military Factory to open the vodka in his hands and drink it.
Wine is very important to the Russian bear.
This is an indispensable item in their lives.
If you don't drink after they order it, it would be disrespectful to them.
A group of senior executives of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory opened the vodka in their hands and began to "lick" it slowly, tasting it slowly.
After a round of drinking, Kovlevich asked Lin Chenran why he came to Mao Xiong.
"What?"
Kovlevich was extremely surprised!
