Chapter 849 Defense Exhibition Open
On February 20, the square in front of the Abu Dhabi International Defense Exhibition in the United Arab Emirates is decorated with clusters of flowers and all kinds of colorful flags, showing a festive and grand atmosphere.
Representatives of thousands of defense companies from dozens of countries around the world, political axe representatives from various countries, professionals and some invited military enthusiasts all gathered here early.
At 7:59 a.m., there was finally a movement on the reading platform in front of the square, and the sound of propellers was soon heard in the ears of the gathered crowd.
Looking up, I saw two 'Zinurgan' transport helicopters flying over the square at low altitude of the building in the east with the UAE flag and defense exhibition flag; then, a total of 10 'Phantom 2000' and 'F-16' fighters of the United Arab Emirates Air Force also passed through the square at low altitude, in the eyes of everyone. A transport plane flew far away with a huge roar. When it crossed the square, a platoon of paratroopers fell from the sky... It was almost equivalent to a small-scale military parade. After the end of the military parade, the Deputy President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Sheikh Al Maktoum of Dubai announced the opening of the 9th Abu Dhabi International Defense Exhibition and did it. Make a speech. When the time pointed to 9 a.m., the opening ceremony ended with the expectation of the impatient crowd waiting outside. Thousands of people entered the exhibition hall in an orderly manner under the protection of the UAE Organizing Committee.
Abu Dhabi Defense Exhibition Hall covers a huge area, with a public exhibition hall and 29 national exhibition halls. Among them, the public exhibition hall is open to exhibitors who do not take the country as a group, and for those countries that have participated many times and have many defense companies, in Abu Dhabi It is very necessary for the defense exhibition hall to establish an exhibition hall belonging to the country, which also gives visitors a good first impression of the country.
After entering the exhibition hall, many people go straight to the booths or national halls of Europe, the United States and military industry powers. Only those visitors who have no direct purpose will first choose the public exhibition area, because here is not without a place to see. Some European and American countries and military industry powers will also arrange exhibitions in the public exhibition area. Taiwan.
The booth position of Star Group is relatively remote. The first time you come in from the gate, you can't see it here. If you look down from the air, the booth position of Star Group belongs to the left rear. Although it is not in the corner, it is almost the same.
While the opening ceremony was still being held outside, the representatives and staff of the defense company were already making final preparations in front of their respective booths, such as preparing the introduction materials for visitors, some special exhibits, and specially recorded videos for visitors at any time. Watch and give them an intuitive impression of weapons.
At the intersection of the booth of Xingchen Group and the booth of Huaxia North Military Industry Group, the mouse was whispering this to Zhao Haiyang, but their eyes were always staring at the entrance of the exhibition hall.
Although the two have only known each other for one day, because they are both Chinese, and the relationship between China and Somalia is currently in the honeymoon. The two sides are like old friends who have been looking at each other for many years. Except for the company's secrets, talking and chatting has become a thing for the two to pass the time while waiting.
"Brother Li, I don't know if I don't look at it. I'm shocked when I see it. Your company is not famous in the industry, but many of the exhibits in this exhibition are eye-catching things." Zhao Haiyang glanced at the 'sparrow' helicopter set up by the bracket and a miniature helicopter the size of a palm on the top of a separate column not far away, and said meaningfully.
It is not surprising that Zhao Haiyang, who has a wide range of knowledge, said so. The main reason is that the first impression of the 'sparrow' helicopter is very special. The two propellers of similar size at the top are not coaxial, just like some heavy transport aircraft, but they look quite small and exquisite, and under this helicopter, There are not only two anti-tank missiles, but also a rocket launch nest, and the firepower is also powerful.
The smaller the size of the aircraft, the lower the surname of the hit. Moreover, as Zhao Haiyang knows, this helicopter still uses a stealth design, which can be seen from the diamond angles of several key parts of the fuselage. In this way, the helicopter's battlefield survival ability is very high. And last year, the Somali Star Group developed a laser anti-missile technology with actual combat. If it is also applied to this aircraft, it can be said that other similar helicopters will be difficult to match in terms of 'protection'.
What Zhao Haiyang does not know is that many new materials are also used on the 'Sparrow' helicopter, such as the composite armor used only on the 'Defendor' tank, to ensure the safety of aircraft and pilots. In addition, two engines and two propellers working alone can fly 50 kilometers after losing one to ensure that the plane does not crash, which far exceeds the flight speed of an ordinary helicopter. They are all the advantages and highlights of this helicopter. In this defense exhibition, it can be expected that the 'sparrow' helicopter will definitely surprise all visitors.
As for the palm-sized mini-helicopter, it is not only used for battlefield reconnaissance and special combat needs. In addition to carrying a high-pixel camera to take pictures of an area of 5 kilometers, it also carries a kilogram of new explosives. The motor used by the helicopter is explosives. Once the starter is under the instruction of wireless remote control, or during an abnormal landing, the helicopter called 'fly' will directly detonate the internal loaded explosives. According to the test of the scientific research department of the Star Group, the explosive carried by a 'fly' helicopter is enough to blow down a two-story building.
This is a special tool for battlefield scouts, special forces and even agents. It can be said to be a must for killing, arson and traveling at home.
Just from these two large and small helicopters, Zhao Haiyang can see how strong the hidden scientific research strength of Star Group is. At least it is not inferior to many well-known defense companies, even compared with those professional airlines in some fields.
The mouse carefully expressed modesty. The other party is the representative of the sales office of the Northern Military Industry Group, and the Northern Military Industry Group is also a military enterprise with a comprehensive surname. From the exhibits of the other party's exhibition this time, it can be seen that the ground armored weapons, anti-aircraft weapons and light weapons, if until this session, Abu Dhabi defense The exhibition only involves the technical weapons of the army and air force, and the mouse even suspects that the other party will even bring naval weapons to the booth.
The two laughed and chatted for a while, and then saw a visitor coming this way. The two immediately stopped talking and returned to their booth.
On the 20th, most of the people who came to visit went directly to the booths of those major military industrial countries, so there were relatively few visitors in the public exhibition area. But even so, some of the highlights of the defense companies exhibited this time were still spread out and soon passed on from the industry, and the Star Collection Several products of the group's exhibition have also been mentioned, which has attracted many people's curiosity. They plan to take a look at the exhibits that are talked about the next day or during the five-day defense exhibition.
Sure enough, on the second day, there were more people in front of the booth of Star Group, and the rats were also very busy. They frequently introduced the surnames and other data of the exhibits to some people who looked like big customers, and tried their best to promote these products.
But the fact disappointed the mouse. From the first day to the next morning, he did not sign an order contract, and even the preliminary intention was not reached. He knows that many customers are still worried or skeptical about the products of the new company of Star Group. After all, are the products of a Somali defense company as excellent as those described in the information? How is the actual use? Everyone is cautious and skeptical. After all, this is a military weapon, and it should be used to defend national defense.
Although the mouse strongly said that it could send representatives to the headquarters of Star Group to directly understand the actual effect of the product, many people still stopped.
On the other hand, Zhao Haiyang, the representative of the North China Military Industry Group on the other side, smiled and looked very happy. Needless to say, he knew that the other party had gained a lot in a day and a half.
In this difficult situation, he immediately reported the news here to the headquarters and called the boss Li Mo in person.
"Anyone is skeptical about new things. This is the name of a person who can't change. Our company is a defense company that has just entered the international stage. Others have not used our products, and our products have not shown their excellent surname ability on the battlefield. It is nothing for those people to hold a wait-and-see attitude. If it were us, we would not dare to use such products at will. This is Li Mo's original words on the phone. He also told the mouse to let the mouse relax and stick to it, even if the last order was not signed in. This is the first time that Star Group has participated in a similar international defense exhibition. In order to officially enter the international stage and make Star Group famous, Li Mo believes that his company's products are always available.
With the boss's words, the mouse really relieved and began to calmly receive every guest. Although they did not show their desire to buy, the mouse was still a very polite expression. That's it. The attitude of the mouse and other staff of the Star Group aroused the good news of many visitors. Feeling.
"Sir, do you have more detailed information about the AS-716 product? For example, the experimental video? Also, can we go up and experience this product in person? On the afternoon of the third day, just as the mouse ran to drink water and just came back, a voice sounded in his ear.
The mouse was refreshed. Looking back, he was an Arab. From the other party, he felt an extraordinary temperament and an important role.
"Yes, sir, please follow me. Here is everything you need. If you want to test this product in person, I can take you to the weapons testing ground. The mouse's eager smile led the man to the back of the booth, which is the most important place for every defense company. The so-called weapons test center he said is that the UAE authorities have prepared a weapons test site for everyone in the suburbs of Abu Dhabi, specially prepared for customers and companies who need to experience weapons in person.
