Chapter 218 The most shocking advertisement [Request full order]
The leader watched the TV with great interest and said, "I heard that Haoran is also on this plane?"
Song Qingfeng beside him nodded and said, "Yes, not only Comrade Haoran, but all the R&D and design personnel of the Xingzhou passenger aircraft and the senior executives of the Magic City Aircraft Manufacturing Plant are on the plane."
"Besides, the live broadcast on TV was also Comrade Haoran's own request."
The leader nodded and said, "It seems that his confidence is very strong!"
Song Qingfeng said: "Yes! This means that there should be no problem with this plane."
The leader smiled and said, "It seems that I will be able to travel abroad on our own domestically produced passenger plane soon."
"It really makes me feel uncomfortable to use another country's aircraft as a special plane!"
Song Qingfeng hurriedly said, "Leader, let's not consider it for now, right?"
"We have to wait for the Starship passenger plane to fly in actual commercial operation for two or three years. When there are really no problems, it won't be too late to consider it."
"After all, your safety is the most important thing!"
The designer's expression immediately turned serious: "The safety performance of the Starship passenger plane can't be worse than that of the Boeing, right?"
"We use another country's plane as our special plane. Aren't we afraid that the other party might do something?"
"The Jusatians have no bottom line, remember that!"
"Our civil aviation large passenger aircraft development is now at a critical stage."
"If it can be used as a special aircraft, not only the domestic people, but also the whole world will be assured of the safety factor of our aircraft!"
"This can be considered as an advertisement for our domestically produced large aircraft!"
Song Qingfeng scratched his head, he didn't know what to say.
On the one hand, the designer's words make sense.
On the other hand, a new aircraft has only a few thousand hours of flight time, and it is unknown whether its defects have been fully discovered and improved.
The leader then said, "Let's just say it's settled!"
"After this commercial test flight, we immediately announced that our leaders will use domestically made Starship passenger aircraft as their special planes for future visits abroad!"
"Of course, I want to set an example myself."
"Next time you visit abroad, don't use the 707 as your special plane."
Song Qingfeng said, "Leader, how about you have a good talk with Comrade Haoran and ask for his opinion?"
The leader said: "Then let Haoran come over today."
Song Qingfeng was thinking: For the safety of the leader, I must notify Wang Haoran.
Let Wang Haoran cooperate a little! At this time, we must not let the leaders rashly use the Starship passenger plane as a special plane.
At this time, on the TV screen, the Starship passenger plane had already fallen from the sky.
The plane landed on the runway lightly like an eagle.
The landing was very stable.
After landing, the plane glided smoothly on the runway.
It is often said that more than 80% of aircraft accidents occur during the take-off and landing phases of the aircraft.
There will basically be no problems while the plane is in the middle of flight.
Of course, in the 21s, Boeing's passenger planes had all kinds of problems. The cabin door fell off at an altitude of 20 meters, and the plane was flying and suddenly fell headfirst. Financialized Boeing has basically not released new models for decades, and even the quality of old models is increasingly unreliable.
This is mainly because Jusa has lost its entire industrial chain, skilled technicians are constantly leaving, and the quality of workers has declined too seriously.
Some media went to Boeing's factory for an interview and actually saw workers taking drugs in the workshop...
Can you imagine this?
The leader took it very seriously.
As he looked at it, he nodded repeatedly and said, "This plane is really beautiful."
“It looks better than the 707.”
Song Qingfeng nodded and said, "That's right."
"Our aircraft designers have very good aesthetic taste."
The leader said: "The plane landed very smoothly, stopped quickly, and the braking was absolutely first-class."
This was the first time the leader watched the Starship passenger plane fly and land, and he was very satisfied.
When Wang Haoran came out of the cabin door to accept the cheers from the audience, the leader smiled and said, "Comrade Haoran is amazing."
"He turned the tide with his own strength!"
"Our fighter planes, bombers, transport planes, and large passenger planes have developed rapidly in the past two years, and he should be credited with the main credit."
Song Qingfeng said: "Yes, the leader is good at employing people."
"If it weren't for your support, he wouldn't have been able to take on such a big responsibility at such a young age."
The leader waved his hands and said, "That's an exaggeration!"
"No matter who they are, we will give our full support to young people like this!"
"If it weren't for him, the conflict with the monkeys in the south wouldn't have ended so quickly."
"We beat the monkey badly this time. That's why we were able to make him surrender."
"The relationship with our northern neighbors has eased and is gradually getting back on track. This is also due to Haoran's great efforts."
"Well! Since they came to our place on their own initiative, I have to go for a walk no matter what!"
Song Qingfeng said: "I guess Daxiong will send out an invitation soon."
"But Jusa is also trying hard to get you to visit them."
The leader said, “Jusa has a bad attitude.”
“Although both guys are not good people.”
"But in comparison, bears are much better than eagles."
"We don't take sides with anyone else. We always stand for our own interests!"
"We want to do business with Jusa."
"We also want to do business with Big Bear."
"Strive to make ourselves develop faster and better!"
"We must strive to become the most advanced industrial country in the world."
Song Qingfeng nodded and said, "We will definitely succeed!"
……
The first commercial test flight of the Starship airliner has attracted worldwide attention.
Especially in the third world countries, Longguo has intentionally or unintentionally organized some forces to promote the Starship airliner in their mainstream media.
This commercial test flight was broadcast live not only by China's CCTV, but also by some other countries, of course using China's CCTV signal.
Boeing President Stepan was also watching the commercial test flight of the Starship airliner.
Because there is also a Chinese-language TV station in the Chinese community in Jusa that also broadcasts CCTV's live broadcast signal.
Stepan looked a little gloomy.
He watched the entire process, from the Starship airliner's takeoff, to its flying posture in the air, to the situation inside the aircraft, and then to the landing of the aircraft.
He never dreamed that Longguo would be able to broadcast live on an airplane.
This is truly an astonishing technology.
Because it is quite difficult to broadcast the images from an airplane at an altitude of 10,000 meters and broadcast them directly and smoothly.
Maybe some people will say, didn’t Judas achieve smooth communication between the Earth and the Moon and live broadcast of images on the Moon when he landed on the Moon in 69?
Isn't that more difficult?
I can only say that if you really believe it is true, then you have a problem with your brain.
When Julius Caesar landed on the moon in 1969, there was not even a relay satellite launched. The communication technology at that time was not good, and even the chip manufacturing process was only a few dozen microns. Anyone with a little common sense would not believe that Julius Caesar could achieve smooth communication between the earth and the moon at that time.
Moreover, the myths of Julius Caesar landing on the moon basically took place in the era of the old man who was a habitual liar.
As soon as the old nun came down, Yusa announced that he would retire and never go to the moon again. This was quite funny.
It can be seen that although the Jewish elites are shameless, most of them still have some shame.
After watching the live broadcast, Stepan said to Boeing Chief Engineer Benjamin who was sitting next to him, "What do you think of their aircraft?"
Benjamin nodded and said, "I think it's very good. This plane is much better than our 707."
"This aircraft should be very mature."
"I have a feeling it could really have a big impact on our sales of passenger aircraft around the world."
"Because it is larger than our 737, if the fuel economy is really as good as they say, many customers will abandon us."
Benjamin was obviously a little anxious too.
Stepan sighed and said in annoyance: "I really can't understand why they must develop civil aviation passenger aircraft!"
"Our insiders were also very weak this time. They were unable to stop them from launching this project."
"Our authorities haven't done much about this either."
"Maybe it's too late now, and we should never think about killing their civil airliner program."
Benjamin said, "Mr. Stepan, don't be too anxious."
"No matter what, Boeing still has the greatest brand influence in the world."
"In this case, as long as we can continue to launch better new aircraft and engage in price wars, perhaps they will be eliminated."
Stepan's eyes widened: "You said you want to start a price war with them?"
"Are you crazy?"
“Do you know how much their planes cost?”
"Their price is only one-third of our 737!"
"If we engage in a price war with them, our profits will be severely reduced, and we may even suffer losses."
"Moreover, by paying too much attention to them, it will encourage other countries to trust their passenger planes!"
"So, don't even mention a price war!" "We still have to use the overall strength of Jusa to lobby and make demands all over the world so that most countries will buy our aircraft."
“This is the right thing to do.”
As Stepan was speaking, the TV screen changed and he saw several men with cloth wrapped on their heads and wearing white robes being interviewed by reporters.
Those men were obviously the rich people in the desert.
When interviewed, they all said that the feeling of riding on the Starship airliner was simply amazing.
They said the plane was comfortable and the facilities inside were full of sci-fi atmosphere.
They say that the Starship's fuel economy is really good, enough to use one-third less fuel than a Boeing 707!
That means that a single flight could potentially save a lot of fuel money.
Several desert bosses said they would persuade their countries to purchase the Starship airliner.
When Stepan saw this scene, his face became even uglier.
Because most of the desert tycoons are Yusa's allies.
Most of the money these people earned from selling oil was saved in Jusa for investment, such as purchasing luxury goods and weapons.
The big planes of the local tycoons are naturally all bought from Yusa goods.
Now things are good. The desert tycoon has actually expressed his willingness to purchase Dragon country passenger aircraft.
This was simply intolerable to Stepan.
Stepan said indignantly: "This is betrayal!"
"We will never tolerate betrayal!"
But in fact, he was somewhat helpless.
……
After the Starship airliner landed at the airport in the capital of Longguo, Wang Haoran was soon notified that the designer wanted to invite him over for a talk.
Wang Haoran went there happily.
When the leader saw him, he smiled and said, "Comrade Haoran, congratulations!"
"The Starship airliner was a hit."
Wang Haoran said respectfully: "Leader, without your strong support, our Starship passenger plane would not be what it is today."
The leader shook his head and said, "You convinced me."
"My previous thinking was problematic."
"I called you here to tell you that I'm going to hold a meeting to replace all our special planes with Starship passenger planes. Can we deliver more than 10 domestically produced aircraft this year?"
Wang Haoran was overjoyed.
Because, the leader’s special plane uses Starship, which has extremely great significance!
This is sending a signal to the world: Dragon Country's domestically produced aircraft are very safe and comfortable, because if they are not safe, they cannot be used as special planes for leaders.
As long as this news gets out and the leaders take the Starship jet for a few more foreign visits, this plane will become known to the whole world.
"Leader, based on the current situation at the Magic City Aircraft Manufacturing Plant, it won't be a problem to deliver 50 Starship passenger aircraft this year."
Song Qingfeng suddenly asked, "Comrade Haoran, what do you think of the safety factor of this plane? Is it better than the 707?"
Wang Haoran knew what Song Qingfeng meant.
Because when he came over, it was Song Qingfeng who picked him up.
Song Qingfeng openly and secretly hoped that Wang Haoran could tell the leader that the Starship passenger plane was not suitable for use as a special plane for the time being.
Wang Haoran also understood that Song Qingfeng was considering the safety of his leader.
But Wang Haoran felt that Song Qingfeng was worrying too much.
"Secretary Song, let me tell you this, the safety performance of our Starship passenger aircraft is much higher than that of the 707."
"After all, the 707 is a plane from decades ago. The materials, precision of its parts, electronic components, and central control computers used in it are completely incomparable to our Starship passenger plane!"
"Our Starship passenger aircraft is definitely safer than the 707."
"Besides, there is no bottom line on Jusa's side."
"So far, they have only been willing to sell us outdated aircraft."
"We must be vigilant against them!"
"That's what I'm saying!"
Song Qingfeng frowned slightly.
Because Wang Haoran is a little bit carried away, he has hinted at that himself.
This person actually patted his chest and said that domestic products are more advanced and better?
Song Qingfeng was about to say something else when the leader looked at him and stopped him.
The leader said: "I still have great confidence in the safety of our domestically produced large aircraft."
"It's a special plane! We use domestically made ones, which is to show our national prestige! If others don't dare to take it, then I'll start with it!"
"That's settled then!"
The leader's words were very stern.
Song Qingfeng didn't dare to say anything else.
Just like that, on the 7 o'clock news that evening, the news of the Starship airliner's first commercial test flight became the headline.
The big boss accepted the interview in person.
During the interview, the leader praised the performance of the Starship aircraft.
At the same time, he also announced that in the future, Dragon Country’s domestically produced passenger aircraft, Starship, will become the leader’s special aircraft!
This blockbuster news once again caused a huge sensation.
It not only caused a great response in Longguo.
Moreover, it caused a sensation around the world.
Media in many countries rushed to report on it.
This report will become much more popular.
……
While the 7 o'clock news was being broadcast, Chen Zhen, a reporter from a southern newspaper, was writing an article in his office at the Beijing news station.
He was watching the 7 o'clock news while choosing his words.
When he saw his leader announce that the Starship passenger plane would be used as a special plane in the future, Chen Zhen was stunned.
What? The first commercial test flight was successful, and the leader immediately announced that it would be used as a private plane?
Moreover, it should be used immediately.
This impact is quite huge.
Chen Zhen took a look at his article.
The entire article is about the Black Starship passenger plane, almost disparaging this domestically-made aircraft.
Moreover, Chen Zhen also launched a large number of vicious attacks on Wang Haoran himself.
Chen Zhen thought that this article could not be published under his name.
If you sign your name, you might face severe retaliation.
That would definitely be a disaster for Chen Zhen himself.
After watching the 7 o'clock news, Chen Zhen began to concentrate on writing his article.
At this time, Catherine, a reporter from the New York Times, was driving to the newspaper press station where Chen Zhen was working.
Catherine drove the car directly to the nearby roadside and stopped.
Then she got off the car and went straight to the press station.
This reporter from a southern newspaper stood in a small courtyard.
Catherine successfully passed the security checkpoint and then swaggered to the door of Chen Zhen's office.
"Dong dong!"
She knocked on the door.
Chen Zhen walked over and took a look. He found it was Catherine, so he opened the door happily.
"Hello, Miss Catherine!"
Catherine smiled charmingly and said, "Can I come in?"
Chen Zhen quickly let Catherine into the office.
Catherine glanced at Chen Zhen, who had a flattering smile on his face, and she thought to herself, this is the attitude that a Dragon person should have.
"Chen, I came to see if you have finished writing your article?"
Chen Zhen nodded quickly: "Yes, I've finished writing it."
"Please take a look."
He nodded and handed his article to Catherine.
Catherine began to look through it.
Her Chinese is quite strong and she has no problem reading articles like this.
After reading it, Catherine thought to herself, This article is much more powerful than what I wrote myself.
It seems that making the Dragon people oppose their own country is a good strategy.
In the future, Mr. Chen Zhen should be trained to become a staunch supporter of public opinion.
It's a great deal to do a lot for a small amount of money.
Catherine thought so and said with a smile: "Chen, you wrote this article very well."
"What do you think if we hire you as a special correspondent?" (End of this chapter)
