Chapter 241 Lin Chenran: Brother, are you coming back to get the certificate?
"Although our 704 Shipyard has sufficient and considerable dock facilities, it is currently facing a serious practical problem - the lack of sufficient professional engineers and experienced and skilled workers."
"It is impossible for us to recruit so many excellent engineers and skilled front-line workers in a short period of time."
Recruiting too many employees would make the 704 Shipyard extremely bloated, causing the "machine" that was originally running at high speed to stagnate.
This is not the result Lin Chenran wanted.
Having said this, Lin Chenran paused for a moment and did not continue.
Mr. Lin and Lin Xuan, who were sitting next to him, knew the unspoken meaning of his words.
The 704 Shipyard does not only accept warship orders from the Yan Country Navy.
Although these orders often have higher profit margins and important strategic significance.
But in the long run, the civilian ship market is the key to the sustainable development of shipyards.
Compared to the relatively limited and unstable warship orders, the demand for civilian ships is more extensive and lasting.
With the increasing frequency of domestic and international trade and the booming tourism industry, the demand for various types of commercial ships, cruise ships and other civilian ships is increasing year by year.
There is another objective factor that cannot be ignored, that is, the warship orders of the Yan State Navy are not as continuous as people imagine.
Due to the combined influence of various factors such as national military strategic planning, fiscal budget and international situation, the placement of warship orders usually involves a certain degree of periodicity and uncertainty.
This means that if the 704 Shipyard relies too much on such orders, it will easily fall into the dilemma of business fluctuations or even stagnation.
When Mr. Lin learned that Lin Chenran decided to outsource part of the warship orders to other domestic shipyards through public bidding for joint construction, he not only did not express opposition, but expressed deep understanding and support.
This is undoubtedly a wise move.
On the one hand, we can make full use of the human and material resources of other domestic shipyards to speed up the construction of warships and complete the orders of the Yan State Navy.
On the other hand, it can ensure that other ship projects of the 704 Shipyard itself will not be affected and maintain a stable and efficient production rhythm.
It really kills two birds with one stone!
……
At this time, Mr. Lin smiled kindly and nodded his head in praise, "Chenran, this is a really good idea! It not only cleverly resolves the thorny problems faced by the current rapid construction of warships, but also takes into account the construction of other ships at the 704 Shipyard. It is very thoughtful."
……
Lin Xuan sat quietly at the side, listening attentively to Lin Chenran's detailed report on the 077 Mechanical Arsenal.
As Lin Chenran continued to narrate, the expression on Lin Xuan's face gradually became one of astonishment.
In just over three years, his younger brother had successfully created a huge business empire and an impressive military empire!
This is really incredible.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but recall what the 077 Mechanical Arsenal looked like before his brother took over - at that time it was on the verge of bankruptcy.
After the careful creation and operation by his younger brother, it has been transformed and become a leader in the industry.
With such a big change, Lin Xuan deeply realized how much hard work his brother had put in.
After the Lin Chenran brothers finished their conversation with Grandpa Lin in the study, they slowly walked out of the room together and came to the spacious and bright living room.
As soon as he sat down, Lin Chenran couldn't suppress his inner curiosity and asked impatiently: "Brother, I think your coming home for the New Year this time is not simple. What is the reason?" Normally, important festivals like the Spring Festival are also the busiest times for the army.
As the chief officer of a special operations regiment, Lin Xuan has heavy responsibilities and it stands to reason that he would never leave the combat unit easily.
Faced with his brother's questioning, Lin Xuan first showed a helpless bitter smile, then shook his head gently.
My younger brother has always been extremely smart and sharp-minded, and he can see the key to the problem almost instantly.
Then, Lin Xuan slightly turned sideways and moved lightly and gracefully close to Lin Chenran's ear.
He deliberately lowered his magnetic voice, as if he was afraid that the secret would fly away like wings, and quietly told Lin Chenran the reason.
"What? You are planning to get a marriage certificate with Sister Wanjun?" When Lin Chenran heard the news, he was struck by a bolt from the blue, and he froze in place in an instant.
However, only a moment later, he came back to his senses from his shock, and a smile as bright as the sun bloomed on his handsome face.
"Why haven't I received any message at all?" Lin Chenran widened his eyes and looked at Lin Xuan in disbelief, with a hint of anger in his words.
Facing his brother's questioning, Lin Xuan was not in a hurry. He raised his lips slightly, revealing a trace of confidence and calmness: "What's the matter? Does it mean that Wanjun and I need your consent before we can get the marriage certificate?"
His tone was somewhat teasing.
Hearing this, Lin Chenran was stunned at first, and then as if he realized something, he quickly waved his hands and said repeatedly: "Uh... Of course not! Of course not!"
Then, he put on a flattering smile, nodded and bowed to Lin Xuan, saying: "Brother, I wish you success in getting the beauty!"
"May you and Sister Wanjun live happily ever after, and may you give birth to a chubby boy or a cute little princess soon!"
Our grandfather and parents are all eagerly looking forward to having great-grandchildren and grandchildren soon!"
By the way, my brother Lin Xuan and Zhang Wanjun have known each other and been in love for a long time.
It’s a pity that Lin Xuan’s unit had been in a highly tense state of combat readiness.
He was also tasked with such an arduous task of attacking the main force of the monkeys that his marriage had to be put on hold temporarily.
Now that Lin Xuan has time to deal with his own lifelong affairs, Lin Chenran is naturally happy for his brother from the bottom of his heart.
Before, the Lin family had always had deep worries and concerns.
Lin Xuan is on the most dangerous front line of the battlefield.
That's a place full of bullets and gunfire, where life and death are unpredictable!
Every expedition may mean never coming back.
Although Lin Xuan and Zhang Wanjun, the girl from the Zhang family, were in love with each other, the Lin family never dared to rashly promote the further development of their relationship.
Who would like to see a young girl in her prime become a widow at an early age?
This tragedy is truly unbearable.
Coincidentally, the Zhang family actually had the same idea.
They also felt sorry for their daughter and were afraid that if Lin Xuan unfortunately died, how would Zhang Wanjun live in the future?
