After seeing Gu Chenghua off, Zhou Yang leaned on his chair and fell into deep contemplation.
Lao Gu is responsible for safety and security. He does not understand the development direction of the institute and does not know where the future of the institute lies.
In fact, it's not just Gu Chenghua who doesn't know. Except for Zhou Yang himself, most people in the entire institute have no idea about this matter, including Guo Yamin, Zheng Aiguo, Yang Hongguang, Chen Shanhe and others.
Like the vast majority of staff in scientific research units, these people only focus on their own one-third of an acre of land and basically ignore other things.
But Zhou Yang is different. He is the director of the research institute and the director of Factory 888.
In addition to determining the size of scientific research projects, he also has to plan a broad road for the institute.
It is said that people who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries, and the same is true for scientific research institutions.
Zhou Yang knows very well how many projects will be canceled in the next ten years, and how many military industry companies will go bankrupt due to lack of orders.
Even scientific research units that have always received funding from superiors cannot escape the fate of dissolution or merger. Among them are many large research institutes and laboratories that have achieved dazzling results.
When facing the tide of national economic transformation, except for a small number of top scientific research institutes, the rest have to find ways to break through and find opportunities to survive.
If you find it, you can survive; if you don't find it, you have to die!
Despite the fact that the Babaoliang Research Institute seems to be very strong now, research laboratories and factories have been built one after another, more and more families of employees have gathered together, and scientific research results have been produced one after another.
But if you want to survive the tide of the times just by relying on these, it is not enough. You must plan ahead and plan ahead.
Regarding the future of the research institute and various military factories, Zhou Yang has always believed that the military and civilians should advance together and integrate internal and external forces.
The so-called co-advancement of the military and civilians refers to the simultaneous development of military technology and civilian technology.
We must not only do a good job in R&D and manufacturing of military equipment, but we must also vigorously develop military-to-civilian conversion and bring some military technologies to the civilian market, such as radar technology and aircraft research and development, etc.
The integration of internal and external means that we cannot put all our eggs in one domestic basket, but also go abroad.
The domestic market is not small, and the foreign market is even bigger. More importantly, there are many large foreign companies who understand "technology".
As long as we open up foreign markets and rely on our complete military industrial production system and extremely competitive cost advantages, orders will definitely come in like snowflakes!
Money, isn’t it here?
All in all, the curtain has been drawn. Now we can no longer wait for funding from above and wait to die as we did before.
Therefore, when Zhou Yang reported the "Weapons and Equipment Overseas Plan" to the top management in September, he had already begun to make arrangements in this regard.
When Yan Gengdong got married at the beginning of the month, although he did not go to Hong Kong Island to attend the wedding in person, Lu Zhengjun did.
When Lu Zhengjun went to Hong Kong Island, Zhou Yang specially asked him to come to Batai Mountain and handed him a team of 8 people.
Let him send this group to Hong Kong Island in the name of Project Scythe and hand it over to Yan Gengdong.
And these people will go to the Middle East through the channels of Yuanwei Company to implement a secret plan-to win the first overseas military trade order.
Calculating the time, those people have been gone for almost a month, so there should be some news whether it is successful or not.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number!
"Dudu..."
"Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I am Zhou Yang from 888 Factory, please help me pick up Mr. Jiang!"
"Please wait!"
Soon, the call was connected, and Mr. Jiang's familiar voice came from the phone: "Is it Zhou Yang?"
"Chief, it's me!"
"You made the call at the right time, I was planning to contact you!" Mr. Jiang said with a smile.
"Isn't this a coincidence!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "Chief, I want to report a few things to you when I call today. Do you have time?"
"I'll be fine until ten o'clock, you have an hour and a half!" said Mr. Jiang.
"yes!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "The first thing I want to report is about the anti-tank missile project..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Jiang asked hurriedly: "Is there any progress?"
"Yes, after many tests, we have successfully overcome all technical difficulties. Judging from the results of the current technical demonstration, this anti-tank missile can defeat the world in terms of technology and other theoretical parameters. Any anti-tank missile..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Jiang asked in surprise: "You are talking about the whole world, not the whole country?"
"You heard me right, it's the whole world!" Zhou Yang said seriously.
The anti-tank missile currently being researched by the institute is based on the Red Arrow 9. It will not lag behind even twenty or thirty years from now, let alone now.
Regardless of whether it is the Mao Bear Alliance's main anti-tank missile Sagar or the Thief Eagle's Tao II anti-tank missile, compared with the "Red Arrow 9", they are not opponents on the same level.
Words like "crushing" and "beating" are not an exaggeration at all when used on Red Arrow 9.
"Hahaha, okay, I know you can do it, what do you need us to do?" Mr. Jiang said happily.
"We now need to trial-produce this anti-tank missile and conduct a live-fire test! We need you to contact relevant companies to help trial-produce this missile. Our research institute does not have the ability to produce missiles!" Zhou Yang said.
"No problem, I will personally follow up on this matter and prepare your team there. Someone may pick them up at any time!" Mr. Jiang replied.
"yes!"
"The second thing is that the second batch of students in the artillery sighting radar training class is about to graduate, and the third batch of students is about to enter school, so our institute is preparing to hold a graduation report performance and an entrance ceremony for new students, and we want to invite people from the ministry Come and participate!" Zhou Yang said.
"You guys came here specifically to invite me, right?"
"Yes, you are the direct leader of our research institute. Of course we hope you can attend this event!" Zhou Yang said.
"I'll forget it. The situation in Southern Xinjiang has become increasingly tense during this period. According to what we have investigated, Southern Monkey has completed the final negotiations with the Wooly Bear Alliance. As expected, they will sign an alliance agreement soon. !”
Then Mr. Jiang continued: "With the urinary nature of those monkeys, they will inevitably jump out to cause trouble. In addition, the No. 1 head of the Military Commission is not in the country during this period, and we old guys will not dare to leave Beijing! "
"But I will let other comrades in the department come over, and I will definitely support this place for you!"
Zhou Yang thought for a while and found that the agreement signed between the Southern Monkey and the Bear Alliance in his previous life was November 3rd, so it was almost too late.
More importantly, the situation in southern Xinjiang did indeed deteriorate rapidly after the signing of this agreement, as Mr. Jiang said.
The Southern Monkeys first caused the bloodshed in Dinh Hao Son that shocked the world, and then invaded the Khmer Rouge and continued to send more troops to border areas.
In the end, we couldn't bear it anymore and made the decision to kill the monkeys on December 20, which was just over a month before and after the Southern Monkeys and the Woolly Bear Alliance signed an agreement.
The countdown to war has begun!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang immediately said: "I understand, chief, as long as the ministry sends people to participate!"
"good!"
At this time, Zhou Yang changed his voice and said again: "Mr. Jiang, I want to ask what's going on in the Middle East now. Have they..."
Before Zhou Yang could finish speaking, Jiang Lao said in a shocking voice: "What you want to ask is whether the Pyramid side has contacted us, right?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yang looked powerful and said immediately: "Is there any movement over there?"
Mr. Jiang on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, and then said: You are so courageous. You dare to send people to contact other countries to buy and sell arms without asking for permission. Aren't you afraid of going to military court? "
"You are really good at joking. How dare I? I just asked people to remind those camels who love to build pyramids that they should not just focus on the thief eagles and wooly bears. They have other options. , We haven’t done anything other than that, so why are we going to have to go to a military court?” Zhou Yang said.
"quibble!"
Hearing that Mr. Jiang's tone was not harsh, Zhou Yang immediately said: "Just quibble. Tell me first, do you have any clues about our first arms foreign trade order?"
"yes!"
