Chapter 282 Let the Wheel of History Roll

Liu Zengguang was very happy when he saw Wang Haoran.

"Comrade Haoran, I never thought that such a large ship could be built so quickly."

"You said that this 052D is only over 7 tons. I don't think that's the case."

"It is no smaller than a modern destroyer."

Wang Haoran said: "It's about the same level as the modern class."

"The designed displacement is about 7800 tons."

"Of course, there is a certain amount of error."

"Yes! The materials used in our ship are much better than those of the modern class, and the design is also more reasonable than theirs."

"We will know the exact displacement after launching it into the water."

"But Comrade Zengguang, please remember one thing: our ship is definitely more comprehensive than the Sovremenny class."

"We have already greatly improved and compensated for its shortcomings. For example, the electronic system and radar system are much stronger than theirs."

"In terms of anti-submarine warfare, our towed sonar is more advanced than theirs, and our anti-submarine means are also more sophisticated than theirs. The helicopters on our warships will have more advanced and more diverse anti-submarine equipment in the future."

"Yes! Our anti-ship, anti-surface, and anti-air strike capabilities are also much stronger than the Sovremenny class, because our ship-borne missiles are fully equipped with vertical launch devices!"

"Our anti-aircraft missiles have four missiles in one pit."

"So, I think that after the 052D is put into service in the future, it will be the most powerful destroyer in the world!"

Today, the main destroyer of the USS California is the California class.

这款驱逐舰75年开始服役,舰载两座MK45127毫米54倍径舰炮,两座MK13型单臂通用导弹发射架以及一座MK16型八联装反潜导弹发射架和两座MK32三联装324毫米鱼雷发射管。

The firepower is still quite strong.

However, compared with the 052D, it is completely inadequate.

The firepower of the 052D destroyer is about three or four times that of the California class.

Liu Zengguang has already gone up to see the 052D and listened to the technical staff's introduction.

He was naturally very familiar with Squid's main destroyer.

He felt a little delighted when he heard this.

He laughed and said, "Let alone the California class, even their South Carolina cruiser is far inferior to our 052D."

Wang Haoran smiled and said: "So, if we can build 052 Type 5Ds within five years, can we roam the oceans of the world?"

Liu Zengguang nodded repeatedly: "That's for sure."

"But isn't it a bit too expensive to build 5 ships in five years?"

“There’s a good chance that the country won’t support it, right?”

The cost of building a 052D is not low, more than 1 million yuan.

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "We have money! Don't worry about that!"

"In the future, we will have a very heavy task of protecting waterways."

"052D has great uses!"

"So, we have to speed up the construction."

"The world is not peaceful!"

"Even if you want to do business, you still need a sword to do it!"

"We hope to gain absolute advantage as soon as possible and completely crush Squid."

Liu Zengguang smiled and said, "With Haoran's words, I feel much more relieved."

"You're right! We need to send our navy out now! If we don't, it won't work!"

Today, Dragon Country's overseas trade is extremely hot.

There are Dragon Kingdom merchant ships all over the world.

However, the trade routes are controlled by Squidward.

In this case, it is hard to say that it is safe.

If the other party does something bad, it will cause us huge losses.

Wang Haoran nodded and said, "We should really hurry up and get our naval fleet out to sea."

“This matter cannot be delayed any further.”

"So, after the first 052D is launched and becomes combat-ready, if there are no major problems, we can start building multiple ships at the same time!"

"Also, in addition to the 052D, we also need to develop larger and more comprehensive destroyers!"

"Our submarines also need to improve their technology."

In the 80s, Longguo actually already had a good submarine force.

We have both nuclear attack submarines and nuclear strategic submarines.

As for conventional submarines, the number is not small either.

However, the noise problem of our submarines has always been quite serious.

Even our nuclear submarines are noisy.

If the noise is too loud, it is very easy to detect the track.

Once the submarine is discovered, it will mean disaster.

Therefore, submarine noise reduction technology can be said to be crucial.

For many years, scientists in Longguo have also been working hard to reduce submarine noise.

However, there has not been much progress.

The Dragon Country's nuclear submarines are now even ridiculed as being louder than tractors. As soon as they go out to sea, the sound can be heard a thousand miles away.

Liu Zengguang became even more excited.

He finally felt Wang Haoran's care for the navy.

Last year, not only did it help the navy build aircraft carriers and large missile destroyers at one time, but now it is also saying that it wants to improve and enhance the performance of submarines and design and build 10,000-ton destroyers.

Isn’t that 10,000-ton destroyer a cruiser?

The Chinese call large ships of more than 10,000 tons cruisers.

In the past, the largest surface ship of the Dragon Kingdom’s navy had a tonnage of only three to four thousand tons.

He became so rich all of a sudden that Liu Zengguang was a little dazed.

The navy has never been given so much attention.

"It would be great if we could solve the problem of submarine noise."

"Our nuclear submarines cannot go beyond the first island chain at all. As soon as they go out to sea, they will be discovered and tracked immediately."

“This is quite embarrassing.”

Wang Haoran smiled and said: "The main sources of noise in nuclear submarines are nuclear reactors and turbine engines."

"Next, we will work harder in this area."

"I will lead the team to study and see if we can develop a more advanced nuclear reactor. As for the turbine engine, I think we are already quite mature in this regard."

"Let's combine them further later."

Wang Haoran and Liu Zengguang once again boarded the first 052D destroyer that had been completed.

In fact, during the construction of this 052D, Wang Haoran also came several times, mainly to provide technical support and check the construction progress.

He provided the drawings, so he must also supervise and provide guidance on this matter.

The completed 052D now only lacks the installation of some electronic equipment and other electrical and mechanical equipment as well as weapon systems.

Those have already been prepared.

In order to make this first 052D combat-ready as soon as possible, the outfitting process will certainly be accelerated.

Wang Haoran looked very carefully, mainly checking the workmanship quality of the hull after construction was completed.

I have to say that the craftsmanship of this ship is still very good.

In fact, the quality of Dragon Country's workers is now much higher than that of Lizard Country.

Because the Chinese people are indeed making every effort to promote the nine-year compulsory education for all.

Moreover, Longguo also attaches great importance to education.

Children can really learn a lot of knowledge in school.

This is unlike Xifang, which started promoting happy education very early on.

The so-called happy education is actually letting things take their own course.

If students want to learn, they can learn; if they don’t want to learn, then forget it.

They arrive at school late and leave early every day. In school, teachers do not use discipline to constrain students to study. Even if students do not do their homework or their homework is a mess, they cannot be criticized, but can only be encouraged. As a result, most of the children of the lower class have neglected their studies.

By the 80s, many Jews could no longer do addition and subtraction within .

With this level of quality, it is basically impossible for him to do any complex work.

After the 80s, the company was able to continue to lead in the field of science and technology, mainly by sucking cutting-edge talents from all over the world.

In the previous life, Yousa absorbed a large number of the top talents from Longguo.

But after they got these talents, they didn't actually make good use of them.

Because at that time they were rapidly deindustrializing and becoming a financial country.

No matter how talented you are, you can't make much money in the boring field of scientific research.

As a result, their smartest talents all went into fields such as law, finance, accountants, and doctors.

After touring the ship, which was basically completed, Wang Haoran said to Liu Zengguang, "Does the leader have any other suggestions?"

Liu Zengguang smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's already perfect."

"If I were to give you a piece of advice, I would say it is: get in the water as soon as possible!"

"Also, I can't wait. I hope to see this big ship outfitted as soon as possible so that I can see its power sooner."

Wang Haoran waved his hand and said with a smile: "Then let the wheel of history roll!"

……

Wang Haoran stayed in Shanghai for more than half a month.

The 052D was successfully launched. After launching, it was towed to the outfitting dock and began rapid outfitting.

At the same time, Wang Haoran began to discuss the design of the LNG ship with the technical staff of the Shanghai Shipyard.

The plan had already been in his mind.

Now I just share it with others.

The sharing process was relatively smooth.

After all, the quality of our technical personnel is still quite high.

He asked Shougang to process the Invar steel and have it airlifted over.

Since we are sharing, we should share the manufacturing technology and welding technology of Invar steel.

There is also a super large steel company in the Magic City, that is Magic Steel.

Its strength is also quite huge.

After the technical department of Modu Steel obtained the Invar steel manufacturing technology, it did not take long for it to try to smelt and manufacture it.

As for welding, although it is a bit difficult, it can be done as long as the operation is carried out according to technical specifications.

With the two major problems solved and the ready-made LNG ship construction process solutions available, everything is ready.

……

By the way, the one who is suffering the most right now is Bangbang.

The great shipbuilding industry was developing rapidly.

They have already grabbed a lot of orders from the foot basin.

They already have nearly 50 percent share in the world shipbuilding industry.

But at this moment, something happened that made them angry and puzzled: several countries in the desert area actually gave the large order of giant oil tankers to the shipyard of Longguo.

A total of ten giant oil tankers were given to Longguo’s shipyard?

And they only got orders for 6 ships!
This was unacceptable to them.

The office of Park Jung-jin, general manager of Hyundai Heavy Industries Shipyard.

Park Jung-jin was yelling at Lee Jae-hyung, the business manager in charge of desert business: "What did you do?"

"I asked you to keep an eye on these big customers and make sure we get all the orders. But you actually let Brother Long's shipyard take our orders!"

"You are just trash!"

"waste!"

Park Jung-jin roared at Lee Jae-heung.

He had just thrown a newspaper at Li Zaixing's face.

Li Zaixing trembled: "Mr. Park, I have been keeping in touch with them."

"I don't know what's going on. They actually chose the shipyard in Longguo."

"They are so brave!"

"Longguo simply does not have the technology to build oil tankers."

“I think they will regret it!”

"They will definitely think of us again when they encounter setbacks."

Park Jung-jin sneered and said, "Asshole! Don't you even watch the news?"

"The first giant oil tanker built by Longguo has been launched and started operation!"

"Look at what's written in the newspaper?!"

"Today's news in the newspaper is that Longguo's first 20-ton domestically produced tanker transported a shipload of crude oil from the Bohai Bay in the north to the refinery in the south!"

“They’ve been a huge success!”

Li Zaixing was shocked and he quickly bent down to pick up the newspaper on the ground.

Sure enough, he found the news quickly.

This news is in the international news section.

The area occupied by news is not large.

However, this news is extremely damaging to Hyundai Heavy Industries.

What does this mean?
This shows that Brother Long's tanker technology is completely flawless! It has withstood the test.

Li Zaixing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Oh my God! What, what is going on?"

"Did Jiaoben sell their technology to Brother Long?"

"Otherwise, they would not be able to build such a complex large tanker."

Park Jung-jin shook his head.

"Impossible! Although the Jiaoben people are competing fiercely with us now, they will definitely not support Brother Long's shipyard! Because it is actually more fatal to them!"

"Li Zaixing! I asked you to communicate with those big customers in the desert area again. What did they say?"

Li Zaixing stammered, "Brother Long's shipyard is not abiding by the rules of martial virtue. The price they offered was about 10 million US dollars cheaper than ours."

“They are engaging in a price war.”

"It's just like we are losing ground in the price war."

Park Jung-jin was surprised: "How dare they offer such a price?"

"But, at this price, I don't think they can make much money, right?"

"I heard that their production efficiency is far lower than ours."

Park Jung-jin is actually looking at Brother Long with an old perspective.

In fact, Bang Bang’s rise didn’t last very long.

In the 70s, they were extremely poor.

However, Squid suddenly discovered that the foot basin seemed to have become a threat.

In addition, Bangbang behaved more obediently at this time, so when Yusa suppressed the foot basin, Bangbang got a great advantage.

The Miracle of the Han River began in the early 70s, which was basically the same time when the Foot Basin was suppressed.

It took Bangbang about 10 years to develop the industry.

During this period, a large number of industrial chains were transferred from the foot basin to the bangbang.

Bang Bang succeeded.

Their tails were also raised.

They were already going crazy in the 80s.

It was at this time that their shipbuilding industry began to rise rapidly, and they became one of the most important shipbuilding countries in the world.

Now Bang Bang simply doesn’t believe that Brother Long has made tremendous progress in the past six or seven years. They are still at the stage where they cannot accept it.

Li Zaixing smiled flatteringly and said to Park Zhengjin: "Mr. Park, so now I think that they are actually accepting shipbuilding orders at a price below cost price."

"They will suffer a great loss sooner or later! Therefore, we don't need to worry about this at all..." (End of this chapter)
