Hearing the voice of the old man in military uniform, the kind-looking and round-faced old man named Zhou Jinlie nodded and said:
"Yes, Old Wei, you guessed it right, it was Wang Ye who did it."
"Liang Jinsong, director of the National Defense Office of Luqi Province, called me this morning and said that Wang Ye is serious about making a big deal this time. He feels that this new product will be very useful to our troops, so he asked for samples. , I hope it can be sent to Yanjing for testing."
"I just listened to the introduction, and my expression is probably similar to yours. Whose individual weapon has a 40mm caliber? After all, according to our standards, this is already a cannon!"
"I said this was not nonsense, but he swore that he had seen the test at the Red Star Factory and the effect was quite good!"
"So I asked him to send someone to deliver it, and I will call you in the afternoon to ask your base to connect and collect the goods."
The old man in military uniform nodded, then carefully looked at the goods in the crate, then directly reached out to pick up the revolver grenade launcher, held it in front of his chest and weighed it, then thought and said:
"The empty weight is about four kilograms. It's not heavy, but it's not light either. It can be seen that weight reduction has been taken into consideration in the structure."
"So this is not a gun, but a separate grenade launcher? A grenade launcher that does not rely on a rifle? And it is not a single-shot one. I think they are all continuous-fire grenade launchers?"
"So these types of grenade launchers are specially used to strengthen the fire support and output capabilities of squad and platoon first-level combat units!"
"Wang Ye, this kid, does have some ideas!"
If you add "hand" to a grenade, it is a hand grenade. Hand grenades have been around for a long time. However, grenades have a disadvantage, that is, their range is very limited. Even a strong man with an arm that can run a horse can only throw it seventy or eighty meters at most. , this is already unique. Ordinary soldiers can throw it thirty to fifty meters at most.
Under this circumstance, rifle grenades naturally emerged. The original rifle grenades were shaped like small-caliber mortar shells. They were inserted into the muzzle of the rifle and fired using the kinetic energy of burning blank shells. This had a longer range than thrown grenades.
At present, the main equipment in China is still of this type.
But the old man in military uniform knows that now the United States and the Soviet Union have begun to develop separate rifle mounts and single-shot rifle grenades. To put it bluntly, there is no need for blank rounds. The grenades are made to look like large bullets, making it more convenient and easier to launch. fast.
However, there are currently no similar products in China.
"It's interesting! It's interesting!"
"How did Wang Ye figure this out?"
"This brain is really extraordinary! No wonder Sun Canghai has to praise him in three and a half sentences!"
Under the watchful eye of the kind old man Zhou Jinlie, the old man in military uniform held the grenade launcher and performed various different actions, such as aiming, holding the gun, etc. He also tried to fold the slightly crude butt of the gun, and finally looked at him with a face. He gradually showed a heartfelt smile, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, as if a child got a new toy.
"Where are the grenades? Where are the grenades!"
"Pry them all open for me!"
Following the order of the old man in military uniform, several guards nearby became busy in an instant. With three clicks, five and two, they opened more than a dozen crates on site.
The souvenirs Wang Ye brought to Director Liang included three grenade launchers of each type and a total of 200 rounds of grenades.
Finally, after the crate containing the grenade was opened, it caused a small sensation at the scene. When everyone saw the carrot-like yellow-orange grenade, they couldn't help but gasp!
"Hahaha, to be honest, although this revolver is probably the most practical."
"But I'm actually looking forward to this grenade machine gun the most. If this thing is used as a firepower point, it will really be impossible for one man to open it!"
"In terms of pure enemy blocking and offensive efficiency, it is not comparable to heavy machine guns!"
The old man in military uniform grabbed two grenades and played with them for a moment like a dish of walnuts. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Regarding his statement, the guards present and the old man Zhou Jinlie also nodded.
Most of the people present have been on the battlefield. They understand the cruelty of war and are well versed in the wisdom and know-how of war. If it is an infantry charge, as long as the ground is not flat, they can rely on various bunkers and machine guns. The ballistic trajectory is straight, and as long as there are slopes, ravines, or even bombing craters, it can be used as a temporary shelter.
But facing this kind of grenade machine gun, it is obvious that this blind spot is blocked, because this thing not only explodes, fires countless shrapnel to block the space, but can even be ejected!
What trenches? What bunker? It’s no use!
Even from then on, the bunker fortifications were no longer safe. After a few rounds of this thing were fired into it, all the people inside were cleared out in an instant.
"It's a pity, I guess the price is not cheap!"
"Stuff is good stuff, but"
Finally, the old man in military uniform said with regret, while the old man Zhou Jinlie next to him, who had been holding back his curiosity since the morning, chuckled and said:
"No matter how short of money you are, you still don't need money for a few of these things. Let's go, let's go!"
"While it's still bright, let's go to the shooting range and shoot a few rounds for us to see if the effect is as good as Liang Jinsong said!"
"I heard that these two long ones have good accuracy at a range of one thousand meters."
"In Wang Ye's words, the firefighting radius can reach more than ten meters!"
As soon as these words came out, the old man in military uniform couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eyes. Why did the word fire radius sound so harsh?
"Walk!"
Then a group of people got in the car and arrived at the base's shooting range in a short time.
"Everyone is in position! Get ready! Fire!"
Within a few minutes, the test site was ready, and with the order from the starter, the fire started over there!
"Bang bang bang!"
"Boom boom boom!"
The two old men, together with the other entourage, held telescopes in their hands, taking a look at the launch scene and the explosion at the target from time to time. The joy on their faces became brighter and brighter. Finally, when the three grenade launchers were launched, they Test completed.
"Bah bang bang!"
The old man in military uniform took the lead and started applauding!
Instantly, the guards on the scene also began to applaud vigorously. After all, they had witnessed the entire test process just now, and they had no doubt about the power of the grenade launcher!
"Good stuff! It really is good stuff! Hahaha!"
"Wang Ye, this kid is a damn genius! He has two brushes!"
"And according to our information, I don't remember that there are similar weapons in the world, right? Huh? Could it be that this grenade launcher is the first new weapon invented by China? Boost it! Boost it!"
Standing on the observation platform, the old man in military uniform seemed very excited. He even couldn't hold back a curse word. At the end, he waved his arms vigorously. Others at the scene also shook their heads, saying that they had never heard of anything abroad. Similar weapons.
As for old man Zhou Jinlie, he was even more delighted!
Thinking back to when Wang Ye took the initiative to apply for the job, there were actually far more people who objected than agreed. Although Wang Ye's professional skills were undoubted, he had just graduated from graduate school and didn't understand management!
In the end, it was Mr. Zhou Jinlie who signed for Wang Ye against all the odds. Now that Wang Ye has achieved results, he is very happy!
"Old Wei, you are right. Although we have no money, we still have to spend what needs to be spent in the province!"
"We are not at complete peace yet, and I think this weapon is just right!"
"In this way, I will make a proposal in my name. Lao Zhou, please contact me and purchase 200 revolvers, 50 snipers, 50 machine guns, and 10,000 rounds of grenades, and send them to the south as soon as possible!"
"Money? Do you want money? Give them supplies, give them 30% more!"
After hearing the words of the old man in military uniform, Zhou Jinlie certainly had no objection to this. The old man in military uniform simply called the staff over and signed a note directly, and finally signed his name Wei Qingshan.
After confirming the order, the old man in military uniform Wei Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile:
"That's why Wang Ye, this kid, is going to sell the sheep's head to the dog's meat like this."
"What kind of firefighting equipment do you think this thing is, sold to our African friends?"
In response to what Wei Qingshan said, Zhou Jinlie nodded and said:
"Isn't that right? Besides, I've made a lot of money recently!"
"The people who deceived Kikwete in Tanzania were stunned for a moment! What kind of win-win cooperation plan was made?"
"They directly purchased six million US dollars worth of gas tanks and steel pipe rockets!"
"When I saw a copy of the telegram, my calf was tingling!"
"Steel tube rockets, Old Wei Qian knows, right? It's the same caliber as our 122 rocket launcher. I think the cost is not even fifty yuan. If he sells it for a thousand dollars, the key person Kikwete will recognize him and be willing to purchase!"
"Who are you going to talk to to reason with this?"
Old man Zhou Jinlie said this in a dumbfounded voice, and old man Wei Qingshan heard this news for the first time. His eyes widened and he took a breath of air and said:
"Is it the thing that caused trouble a few days ago? What kind of agricultural rain bomb?"
"A thousand dollars? Why didn't he grab it?"
The next second, old man Wei Qingshan said with a wry smile:
"I think he should go back to the ministry."
"This is the God of Wealth! Let him manage money and foreign trade. I think it won't take long for our military industry system to make a fortune!"
Regarding old man Wei Qingshan's statement, old man Zhou Jinlie sighed and said:
"This is vernacular. With Wang Ye's mind, if it's easy to do things from above."
"How could he go down?"
Then both of them lost interest in talking. After a while, the two old men each lit a cigarette. In the dim sunset, old man Zhou Jinlie coughed lightly and said:
"In a few days, I'm going to start patrolling. The first stop will be the Red Star Machinery Factory."
"Do you want to come with me? Let's go take a look!"
Regarding this proposal, the old man Wei Qingshan in military uniform nodded without thinking and said with a smile:
"Okay, I'm very curious too!"
"I want to see what kind of exquisite person this boy is!"
After a while, the convoy set off again, rushing back towards downtown Yanjing in the last sunset on the horizon.
the following few days.
Wang Ye was so busy in the machinery factory that his feet never touched the ground.
Mainly when it comes to engines, the half-baked engineers trained in night school are still unable to stand up, and Wang Ye has to participate in many of the engine testing tasks.
In addition, the production of rotorcraft is also in full swing.
"Phew! I'm so thirsty!"
Another weekend, Wang Ye led a group of people to work in the workshop for a long time early in the morning. He returned to the office at ten o'clock, sat down and drank the large pot of herbal tea that had been dried, and prepared to take a rest.
He casually picked up the newspaper that had been placed on the desk and looked at it casually. Suddenly, Wang Ye's eyes lit up!
I saw the headline on the front page of the newspaper, written in black and bold font:
"The Autumn Canton Fair will be held on July 20th!"
“More than a hundred countries and regions are participating, and for the first time, foreign-invested enterprises are participating!”
Seeing this, Wang Ye couldn't help but smile, with an expression of surprise on his face. He couldn't help but chuckle a few times to himself. After all, this news was like giving him a pillow when he was dozing off!
The so-called Canton Fair, the full name is China Import and Export Fair, is held in Guangzhou, Guangzhou, so it is called the Canton Fair.
Since its inception in 1957, the Canton Fair has been the largest import and export trade fair in China. It is held in spring and autumn. Customers from all over the world come to participate, either selling goods to China or buying goods in China.
Even decades later, the Canton Fair is still the largest import and export trade event in China, and the Zhuhai Air Show held in Zhuhai, a city next to Yangcheng, is in a sense the largest arms trading event in China!
For Wang Ye, the key to the Canton Fair is that there will be many foreigners!
Thinking of this, Wang Ye directly picked up the phone and dialed the Development Office of the Industrial Bureau. After a while, Director Li, who was busy, answered the phone and said casually with a slight cough:
"Yuntai Industrial Bureau, I am Li Gang."
In the office, Director Li was looking down at the documents, holding a pen in one hand and a phone in the other, when he heard a familiar voice with a joyful tone coming from the other side:
"Director Li? I am Wang Ye!"
"The Canton Fair will be held on the 20th, why didn't you notify us?"
"We, Hongxing Machinery Factory, want to participate in the Canton Fair!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ye immediately stunned Director Li who was sitting there distractedly reading documents!
