The west wall of the institute. Helipad!
"Da da da..."
Amidst the sound of propellers turning like machine guns, five Z-5s landed on the research institute's helicopter landing pad one after another.
The high-speed rotation of the propeller brought up dirt and gravel flying around, causing Zhou Yang and others who were standing outside waiting to be picked up to subconsciously turn around and cover their faces with their hands.
There is no way, flying at high speed, even if just a grain of rice-sized sand hits your face, it will be burning pain.
Soon, the helicopter's engine stopped roaring and the propellers stopped rotating. Apart from the whistling northwest wind, there was no other noise at the scene.
After a short while, the cabin door slowly opened, and several armed guards walked out of the plane and guarded the surrounding area.
After ensuring safety, the cabin door of the plane in the middle opened, and Mr. Jiang, Mr. Yang and others in military uniforms stepped down from it.
After Jiang Lao got off the plane, the cabin doors of other planes opened, and other people walked out one after another.
When Zhou Yang and others stopped rotating the propeller of the helicopter, they stepped forward together. When Mr. Jiang and others got off the plane, they happened to walk to the side of the plane.
"Hello, chief, welcome all chiefs, experts and professors to visit our Babaoliang Research Institute!"
Mr. Jiang smiled and said: "It's true that you have found a place like this. Every time I come to your place, I have to kill half of my old man's life!"
Zhou Yang immediately said: "The noise of the Z-5 is indeed a bit overwhelming, and it is not suitable for long-term travel. When we finish the task at hand, we will research a new helicopter for you, which is guaranteed to be better than this one!"
Old Jiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately laughed and said, "Then I will take it seriously. You kid can't deceive me, old man!"
"How can we not? We, a manly man, spit and nail, and we must do what we say!" Zhou Yang said.
"Hahaha, I just like how cheerful you are. If you need anything, just ask me. I've had enough of this crap!"
After finishing speaking, Mr. Jiang glanced at Nao Wu next to him with a look of disgust.
Mr. Yang on the side echoed: "We should indeed research a new helicopter!"
Mr. Zhang looked at Zhou Yang, and then said: "Comrade Xiao Zhou, do you really want to study helicopters?"
"I have this idea, and I mentioned it to Chief Designer Gu of Liaoshen Aircraft Factory before, and they are also very interested!" Zhou Yang said.
In fact, Zhou Yang has already had the idea of developing new helicopters, especially the Thief Eagle's Black Hawk helicopter.
Countries in previous lives have introduced the Black Hawk for decades, but have never imitated this fighter jet. Many people believe that the Black Hawk's technical difficulties are too great, and our technology is not good enough to imitate it.
In fact, this is not the case. Think about it, we can even build the J20, Z-20, and space station, so why can’t we build an armed helicopter?
The real reason that restricts us from imitating the Black Hawk is that we are subject to patent restrictions. You must know that when purchasing arms from other countries, you must sign some agreements.
These agreements often include clauses prohibiting imitation, and in case of breach of contract, you may face sky-high liquidated damages.
So we didn't completely imitate the Black Hawk helicopter, but we couldn't imitate it, so we created the Z-20.
In terms of overall performance and technological level, the Z-20's latecomer advantage is quite obvious, and its quality far exceeds that of the Black Hawk helicopter.
We have not yet purchased the Black Hawk from Thief Eagle. If we design this aircraft now, it will naturally not be subject to any restrictions.
When Mr. Jiang heard what Zhou Yang said, he immediately said happily: "You are quite impatient. Let's talk about this later. Now, let's take our inspection experts to visit your institute!"
"Okay, everyone, please come with me!"
Later, under the leadership of Zhou Yang and others, Mr. Jiang, Mr. Yang and forty or fifty experts and professors walked toward the Babaoliang Research Institute.
Before they even walked inside the institute, some experts and professors in the crowd were startled by the sight in front of them.
As far as the eye can see, there are bricks, stones and wood everywhere, and a large number of troops are busy here, like a noisy large construction site.
The roar of cars and the trumpets of soldiers mixed with the whistling of the northwest wind performed a shocking waltz.
Although the weather in Saibei Province is no longer cold, it is not warm either.
At least when doing activities outside, you have to wear cotton-padded jackets and shoes.
It's just cold, but the scariest thing is that the wind and sand here are so big that when it blows, the surrounding area becomes yellow, and the visibility may not even be 10 meters.
But even under such climate conditions, so many soldiers are busy shouting slogans here. Thinking about this scene makes people burst into tears.
What shocked these experts and professors even more was that there was such a research institute hidden in such a remote place.
Therefore, many people are curious about what this research institute studies.
These experts and professors who were transferred here are all top scientific researchers from various research institutes under the Ministry of Equipment. They had never heard of the name of Babaoliang Research Institute before coming here, so naturally they were not familiar with it.
They all suddenly received orders from their superiors, saying that they were asked to inspect a secondary research institute, and extremely strict confidentiality orders were issued to them.
According to the above requirements, everyone is not allowed to reveal to anyone where they are going or what they are doing before coming, and they are not allowed to reveal anything they see after coming!
With deep doubts, everyone followed Zhou Yang and others to the inside of the research institute, and were taken directly to the large conference room of the research institute by Zhou Yang!
In the conference room, the three heads of the Equipment Department sat in front of the square conference table. On the left were the eight experts and professors responsible for inspecting the institute, and on the right were the senior officials of the Babao Liang Institute, including Zhou Yang, Guo Yamin, and Gu Chenghua. and Yan Haisheng et al.
As for the other people brought by Mr. Jiang, they had no right to enter and were all waiting outside.
After everyone sat down, Jiang Lao coughed lightly and then said: "Comrades, we came all the way here today for only one thing, and that is to conduct an upgrade inspection of the Babao Liang Research Institute!"
As soon as these words came out, the experts and professors remained silent. After all, they knew what their mission was before they came!
As for the Babao Liang Research Institute, except for Zhou Yang and Gu Chenghua, everyone else was stunned.
You must know that they were upgraded from a project department to a second-level research institute in October last year. How long has it been since then? Why are they going to be upgraded for inspection again?
More importantly, once they pass the inspection this time, they will be upgraded to a first-level research institute.
Good guy, except for large-scale national projects such as the Sky Eye Project, how can any research institute be upgraded to a first-level research institute in such a short period of time?
You must know that first-level research institutes not only sound one level higher than second-level research institutes, but more importantly, first-level research institutes are comprehensive research institutes. The difference is the same as that of an ordinary liability company and a group company.
A first-level research institute may have countless second-level research institutes, or there may be countless large-scale military industrial enterprises. There is no comparison between the two.
However, regardless of how shocked everyone was, Mr. Jiang continued: "This inspection was headed by Professor Zhu from the Military Industry Commission. The comrades of the expert team inspected the institute in accordance with normal procedures. The Babaoliang Institute Please cooperate fully and we will discuss the results of the inspection when the time comes!”
"Yes!" everyone said in unison.
Then Mr. Jiang looked at Zhou Yang and said, "Comrade Zhou Yang, all the experts and professors responsible for the inspection this time are also members of our equipment department. You can completely trust them!"
"Yes, I will ask my comrades to fully cooperate!"
Mr. Jiang looked at his watch and then said, "We have limited time, so I think we should start now. Professor Zhu, first tell us how you plan to conduct the inspection?"
The gray-haired Professor Zhu immediately said: "Whether a second-level research institute can meet the standards for promotion depends first on how many scientific research achievements the institute has and whether it has potential."
"Secondly, it depends on the talent reserve of the institute, whether it can support a large-scale research institute, and whether it can support one or multiple large-scale projects."
"In addition, there are also the hardware facilities of the institute, so we will conduct a comprehensive inspection around these standards..."
After Professor Zhu finished explaining their inspection methods and standards, Mr. Jiang asked Zhou Yang to immediately arrange for someone to accompany the experts and professors to start the inspection, while he himself was left behind by Mr. Jiang and others...
