Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 1322 I want them all

 Du Fei came out of Mianmian Hutong and didn't know that Qin Jingrou was still thinking about him, so he didn't stay long when he got back to the unit and drove out directly.

I first went to the sub-district office, mainly to see Uncle Feng and Section Chief Qian. Director Wang was fine, and he went to his home during the New Year and holidays.

 Parking the car at the street corner, Du Fei walked over on his own.

The subdistrict office is still the same as it was in previous years. As soon as Du Fei entered the door, he took a look at the mail room.

There is no one in the house.

As expected, as we walked inside, Uncle Feng stood on the sunny ground in the courtyard, puffing out bags under his eyes.

 “Uncle Feng~” Du Fei called out.

Uncle Feng came back to his senses and raised his eyebrows: "Why do you, a busy man like you, think of coming back?"

Du Fei smiled and said, "I miss you, old man~"

Uncle Feng curled his lips and said, "Let's go up to the room and sit down."

The two of them went into the house. Du Fei put down the bag he was carrying and took out two mangoes and two cigarettes.

 The cigarettes were purchased from Hilton from Xiangjiang and have been kept in the carry-on space.

“Uncle Feng, these are mangoes from Nanyang. Try them and don’t be reluctant to part with them. They will go bad in a few days.”

Uncle Feng smiled and picked up a yellow fruit, and said with a smile: "You have gone to Nanyang?"

Du Fei said: "I've been here for several months and only came back two days ago. Now I'm here to see you~"

 After staying in Uncle Feng's room for a while, Du Fei went to see Section Chief Qian again.

  Section Chief Qian will retire next year. He looks obviously older than before, and his hair is almost all white.

 However, there has been an abundance of cloth on the market in the past two years, so I no longer wear patched clothes.

There were still the same faces in the office. Aunt Zheng and the others were all there. Du Fei gave two fruits and asked everyone to cut them and have a taste, and then went to Section Chief Qian's small office to sit down.

Since Zhu Ting left, there are no new people in the small office. It is estimated that when Section Chief Qian retires, people will be transferred from the district.

After chatting for a while, Du Fei got down to business: "Uncle, my aircraft manufacturing factory over there is looking for people. Do you think there is anyone suitable for our family to go to?"

  Section Chief Qian has many children in his family, and his family background is better than Qin Huairou's relatives in the village. They are all educated, and with Section Chief Qian's guidance, they will definitely be more useful.

Section Chief Qian's eyes lit up and he controlled his voice and said, "Is there such a good thing? How many people do we need to recruit in total?"

Du Fei said: "It is estimated that there will be four to five thousand people."

Section Chief Qian couldn't help but gasped. Four or five thousand people were needed at one time. Doesn't it mean that with this expansion, there will be tens of thousands of people at the aircraft manufacturing factory!

 Coupled with the 8270 factory and the tractor factory as well as the automobile factory in Xingtai and the shipyard in Tianjin, the number of workers in the factories under Du Fei's fire equipment company will exceed 25,000.

Since Du Fei left, Section Chief Qian has been paying attention to Du Fei's news, and can't help but secretly be surprised that it has become so big in just a few years.

This is not a textile factory or a steel factory. This is the manufacturing of aircraft and tanks. It is serious high technology.

As for why Du Fei came here specially, he also mentioned the recruitment of workers in the factory.

With Section Chief Qian’s experience, he could tell at a glance that he immediately said that his family, uncles and brothers all had boys of the right age, including high school students and technical secondary school students, who were all smart and capable of doing things.

Du Fei smiled, it's easy to do things with smart people, there's no need to break them into pieces.

Coming out of Section Chief Qian's place, Du Fei saw that it was time to get off work. Du Fei hurriedly went to pick up Zhu Ting, but instead of going home, he went to Chu Cheng's house.

Chucheng had already got off work when he got home. This guy has been blowing up like a balloon in the past two years. His originally thin body now has bulging cheeks.

Zhou Xiaoli has given birth to her second child, and she is also plump and plump.

Du Fei and Zhu Ting came over, still carrying a bag of mangoes. When they entered the house, Zhou Xiaoli opened the door. Chu Cheng was wearing an apron and cooking in the kitchen.

Hearing the movement, he shouted: "Wait a moment~ It'll be over soon."

Du Fei smiled, went to the kitchen and said with a smile: "Hey, did you eat the dough starter?"

 “Get lost! If you don’t help, don’t cause trouble.” Chu Cheng cursed. Although the two hadn’t seen each other for several months, they didn’t feel that they were different.

Du Fei said: "Get out of here and watch me **** your daughter."

Zhou Xiaoli gave birth to a daughter for the second time, but Du Fei has not seen her yet.

Zhu Ting washed her hands as soon as she entered the house, and went inside with Zhou Xiaoli to see the child.

Du Fei also leaned over and wanted to reach out to hug her, but Zhu Ting glared at her: "Wash your hands, I've been wandering out all day."

Du Fei stretched his neck and glanced at the child, then came out dejectedly.

After washing his hands, Chu Cheng came out with the freshly stewed fish: "Eat, eat." He took out a bottle of Fenjiu from the cabinet next to him and said, "Lao Du, let's have some drinks today."

Du Fei smiled and said: "Then you must drink. It's been a long time since we got together."

　At this time, Zhou Xiaoli also came out with her baby in her arms and put her in a small stroller made of bamboo next to her.

Du Fei asked: "Where is the boss? Did you send him to grandma's house?"

 Zhou Xiaoli said "hmm": "I'll let my mother take care of me for two days, it's a bit too busy."

Chu Cheng continued: "Thanks to my mother-in-law, otherwise we would both go crazy. If one of us cries in the middle of the night, the other one will definitely follow. Don't mention it~"

Du Fei said: "That's right. How can it be so easy to feed children?"

 Speaking, he brought a wine bottle to Chu Cheng and got a drink. Zhou Xiaoli could drink it originally, but now she has to nurse a child, so she must not drink alcohol. Zhu Ting also accompanied her.

 The four of them were not very particular. They chatted while eating and drinking, and talked about some recent developments.

 Chu Ming and Xiao Huifang were also mentioned in the middle. Xiao Huifang finally got pregnant two months ago.

This made Chu Hongjun and his wife heave a sigh of relief. Otherwise, there would be no news after such a long time since their marriage. Although they didn't ask, they were all worried about whether there was something wrong with the two of them.

Even if she was too far away, she couldn't care about Xiao Huifang's pregnancy. Fortunately, Xiao Huifang's mother had passed away.

We talked a lot about this, and after three drinks, Du Fei asked: "Old Chu, how are you doing at the Grain Bureau? Are you interested in changing places?"

At this moment, the three people at the table were stunned and looked towards Du Fei.

Chu Cheng put down his cup and asked, "Old Du, what are you doing? What's the matter?"

Du Fei didn't give in, and simply made it clear: "You know my aircraft manufacturing factory. Now it plans to expand its scale. It is estimated that it will recruit five to six thousand people. I am not worried about such a big place." He glanced at Zhu Ting: "The current director of the aircraft manufacturing factory, Wang, is Zhang Lan's father's son..."

Chu Chengdao: "You want me to go over and keep an eye on him?"

Du Fei said: "I can't say that I'm just staring. Lao Wang's performance is still okay, but such a big place must have its own people. You know the situation in my family. I don't have any biological brothers, and I have no contact with my uncles or brothers." , after much thought, it’s just you.”

Chu Cheng couldn't help but feel that Du Fei regarded him as his brother.

However, he did not agree impulsively. He thought for a while and said: "I am definitely an amateur when it comes to building airplanes. I can go over and help you keep an eye on it. But you know the situation of our family. I can't make the decision on this."

Du Fei nodded, not expecting to make a decision today: "That's for sure. Speaking of which, my Aunt Wang is in good health~ She wasn't there when I went to the street office during the day. She brought a few fruits. You can deliver them to me later. "

 After talking about this, Du Fei and Chu Cheng ate and drank for a while, while Zhu Ting and Zhou Xiaoli took their children back to the house early to talk.

 This scene didn’t end until almost nine o’clock in the evening.

Sent Du Fei and Zhu Ting downstairs, Chu Cheng returned home, washed his face, felt refreshed, and was ready to clean up.

 Zhou Xiaoli came out of the house to help.

 “The child is asleep?” Chu Cheng asked.

Zhou Xiaoli nodded, picked up the bowls together, and asked: "Hey, just now Du Fei said that he asked you to go to the aircraft manufacturing factory, what do you think?"

Chu Cheng slowed down and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhou Xiaoli obviously thought about it: "Actually, this may not be an opportunity. Although you are stable in the Grain Bureau, you can see the end at a glance. Besides, you haven't seen in the past two years how strong Du Fei's momentum is. He didn't have this opportunity before. He didn’t mention it to us, so it’s not easy to get involved. He took the initiative this time, and if you go, you’re also helping him, so why don’t you go?”

Chu Cheng nodded in agreement. In fact, he thought so too.

 At first, I was young and didn’t have much in mind. I felt that working in the Liangzhan Grain Bureau was a good life, with good pay and not too tiring.

 But after getting married, especially after having two children, Chu Cheng's thoughts changed. He had to consider the future of his children if not for anything else. Chu Cheng thought for a while and said, "You and your family will watch. I'll go to my parents' place."

But she was grabbed by Zhou Xiaoli: "What are you busy with? Don't be in a hurry all night. You drank too much just now. Stop riding. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

 …

At the other end, Du Fei and Zhu Ting came out of Chu Cheng's house.

Du Fei drank and switched to Zhu Ting to drive. The two of them did not go back to the agency compound, but went directly back to their own homes.

Zhu Ting asked in the car: "Hey, when you mentioned Zhang Lan today, did you notice anything about her actions?"

Du Fei said in surprise: "No, it's just to nip it in the bud. Besides, Zhang Lan's father and our father are together now, what can she do~ I said that as an excuse to let Chu Cheng go to the aircraft manufacturing factory to avoid trouble. It's getting bigger and bigger, and I'm slowly losing control. Besides, I've been very successful in the past two years. If I don't help Chu Cheng, what will Uncle Chu and Aunt Wang think in their hearts if they don't say anything?"

Zhu Ting nodded: "That's the truth~"

Du Fei asked again: "By the way, does our dad have a collection of pistols at home?"

 Zhu Ting was confused: "Pistol? What do you want this for?"

Du Fei said something about what Zhou Zhennan likes: "When you come to ask for help, you can't accept it empty-handed. It's so meaningless."

Zhu Ting frowned and thought, "My dad doesn't have this hobby, but my uncle has quite a few. I'll ask my eldest sister tomorrow."

Du Fei nodded, then asked: "By the way, when will the eldest brother-in-law come back? I haven't seen him for almost half a year."

Ever since Du Fei destroyed Posco Steel Works last time and snatched America's steel production line, Li Mingfei has been busy.

Although the production line was eventually settled in Jinzhou, a large number of relevant personnel, leadership and technical personnel needed to be mobilized from the capital.

 Li Mingfei was involved, and the superiors wanted to transfer him to be the factory director.

However, the factory there is still in the preparation stage. It is not easy to relocate the equipment and technology of a large steel plant. It is estimated that the production line will not be able to start trial production until the end of this year or early next year at the earliest.

 The next day, Du Fei received a call from Zhu Ting during the day, saying that she got a pretty good antique pistol from her uncle.

When Du Fei heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Only with this gun could he visit Zhou Zhennan.

I thought about it in my mind and called Zhou Xiaobai first. When I went to visit, I had to say hello in advance. Going there without saying a word would be unofficial and impolite.

 Wait until evening, after dinner, Du Fei took Zhu Ting to the compound where Zhou Xiaobai's family was located.

 The Zhou family was also prepared in advance. When they arrived, Zhou’s father and mother were both there.

Zhou's mother smiled and took the gift from Zhu Ting, while Zhou Zhennan was reading the newspaper on the sofa. When he saw Du Fei and the others coming in, he folded the newspaper with a smile: "Xiao Du, Xiao Zhu, sit down!"

Du Fei responded and sat on the sofa in the living room.

Zhou Xiaobai obediently washed a plate of fruit and put it on the coffee table.

Du Fei sat down and took out the pistol that Zhu Ting had obtained during the day: "Uncle Zhou, I heard from Xiaobai that you like to collect pistols. I don't understand this either. Can you give me some advice?"

Zhou Zhennan looked at him, then at his daughter, and said with a smile: "Okay, that's what your dad is interested in." Looking at the box Du Fei handed over with both hands, he paused for a few seconds, then reached out to catch it, but didn't He opened it and put it on the coffee table: "Xiao Du, I know that you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, so forget it. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Du Fei was not polite. This pistol was just his attitude. He had inquired about it in advance and prepared it in advance, which showed that he valued and respected Zhou Zhennan.

 Hong Kong is not complacent because of the achievements he has made in recent years.

Du Fei chuckled: "Uncle Zhou, you know the situation between Lin Tiansheng and I in Nanyang..."

Zhou Zhennan nodded, this is not a secret, everyone above knows what is going on.

Especially last year, Li Yuanchao's influence in Shanbei played a vital role, making many people pay more attention to the situation opened up by Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng in Nanyang.

Du Fei continued: "The development over there is good now, but the Air Force is more of a headache. It really needs no planes, let alone pilots. I'm here to ask for help from you."

Zhou Zhennan pursed his lips slightly and thought for a long time without saying anything.

 This is not a trivial matter, nor can he alone have the final say. He thought for a moment before asking: "Then do you want a plane or a person?"

Du Fei said boldly: "If it's possible, of course I'll do it."

Zhou Zhennan snorted softly: "You think it's beautiful, and you still want it."

Du Fei was not in a hurry to speak. From Zhou Zhennan's tone, he could tell that there was something to this matter: "Isn't it all dependent on your help~"

Zhou Zhennan waved his hand and said, "No, when did I promise to help you?"

Du Fei didn't care either: "If you don't help me, who can I help? It's hard for us to gain a foothold in Nanyang. If the situation is ruined because of the shortcomings of the air force, tell me, that would be a pity."

Zhou Zhennan smiled and said: "Don't blame me. I don't have to say anything about the plane problem. Last year, the situation in Shanbei was so urgent, and only more than 20 planes were dialed. There is nothing wrong with you. Do you think it can be done?" How much will I give you?"

Du Fei had known that this was the case and quickly settled for the next best thing: "Uncle Zhou, you said those are the more advanced MiG-21 and our J-7. I don't expect that. Do you think the J-5 and J-6 can do that?" cannot…"

Zhou Zhennan was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect that Du Fei's real target was this older aircraft.

  She said in a deep voice: "This can be considered."

As soon as he heard this, Du Fei knew that they were almost inseparable. He didn't ask how many planes there were, when, etc., and instead asked the pilot.

 Actually, this is more important. There is no way to get an airplane. As long as you have money, you can always get it.

 But you don’t want to be a pilot, you can get one if you want to.

Just count on Nanyang to train its own pilots. Even if the funds are sufficient, you won’t see results for ten to eight years.

Du Fei just couldn't afford to wait.

Who would have known that this would not be a problem here in Zhou Zhennan.

Zhou Zhennan said: "It's easy to be a pilot. You don't have to look for me. You can go directly to the flight academy. We have fewer planes and more people. Every year, only the top few who graduate from the flight academy can fly on fighter jets, and the rest can only transfer They are all good candidates for ground work, what a pity!”

 Speaking of this, Zhou Zhennan couldn't help but shake his head, it was really a pity.

At present, there are thousands of pilots graduating every year in China, and they are all carefully selected top pilots. However, among these people, less than one percent can actually fly into the sky.

 It’s not that those who were dismissed are not excellent, but this is the status quo.

"By the way~" Zhou Zhennan looked at Zhu Ting: "Xiao Zhu, I remember your eldest brother is in Jinzhou now~ There are many good talents in the Third Flight Academy there." Then he looked at Du Fei: "You If you really want people, it’s better to go directly to the local government and think of a solution.”

Du Fei knew that Zhou Zhennan was showing him a clear path, and he quickly thanked him profusely.

Zhou Zhennan said calmly: "You don't need to thank me. It's your aircraft manufacturer that built the gunship. I saw the video and it's pretty good!"

Du Fei chuckled and said, "If you give me any compliments, it's just a small fuss. It's just looking at bluffing people. It's okay to patrol normally, but it won't work if you really encounter high-intensity anti-aircraft firepower."

Zhou Zhennan said: "Although it has disadvantages, it is still very useful. There is no perfect weapon in this world."

 …

After chatting for a while at Zhou Zhennan's house, and staying for more than half an hour, Du Fei took the initiative to say goodbye.

 Coming out of Zhou's house, Du Fei couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Today's trip was not in vain.

First of all, the pilot's problem has been solved. Now that Zhou Zhennan has said it, he has shown his support and will definitely say hello in private.

 At that time, the flight academy will not be holding people back.

Then there are aircraft. Although the J-5 and J-6 are old, they are serious jet fighters. Now Du Fei has to solve the problem of whether they are available or not.

 Only when you have solved the question of whether it is good or not can you be qualified to consider whether it is good or not.

 At least put up the frame first. With people and planes, we can hope to upgrade it in the future.

 But sitting back in the car, Du Fei was no longer happy when he thought about what would happen next.

Zhu Ting couldn't help but ask: "Why are you unhappy? Don't the plane and the pilot have something to look at?"

Du Fei shook his head and said: "You don't understand, this is the first step. Now America and SLA will soon be replaced by third-generation fighters."

 “Third-generation fighter planes?” Zhu Ting was surprised. This aspect was beyond her knowledge base.
