Chapter 519 I dare not forget the country's worries!
Tang Yu seemed to see the man's idea at a glance, so he said in a low voice, "I personally suggest that you'd better ask your superior. If I can come here, then I believe your superior has judged that I am qualified to come here." Hearing Tang Yu say this, the man's face suddenly looked a little ugly, but Tang Yu has now entered here and is licensed by a boss in the general counsellor. As a subordinate, although he had some hints about letting a child who is not a first-year high school enter the confidential base of the general ginseng, he did not dare to say anything more.
"I'll call Mr. He now. You can ask your superior for instructions now. I hope to get your message in a moment. Thank you!" With that, Tang Yu no longer paid attention to the man, but went to the edge of the table in the cave and looked at the man on the edge of a small box with a lock. The man saw that Tang Yu had no choice but to go to the edge of the locked box and took out a bunch of keys to open the lock one by one, and then made a gesture to Tang Yu. Tang Yu picked up the phone and looked at the man again. The meaning was obvious: Do you still want to stay here?! The man clearly understood Tang Yu's meaning. He was about to get angry, but he didn't know why he put up with it and walked out of the cave with a gloomy face.
Tang Yu picked up the phone and put it in his ear and waited for a while. He Lao's thick voice came from the other end of the phone. He Lao said in a low voice on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Yu, what's wrong?! How dare you use the secret line of the general ginseng?!" Hearing Mr. He's words, Tang Yu said solemnly at the end of the phone, "Grandpa! It's really a big deal, otherwise I wouldn't have used this kind of secret line in the military. Say it clearly! Does our country want a few aircraft carriers?!" Hearing Tang Yu's words, there was a silence at the end of the phone. It took a long time to hear Mr. He's voice: "Let's be specific! What's going on?! Make it clear!!"
Tang Yu took a deep breath and said slowly to He Lao on the other end of the phone: "After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the former Soviet Union's Black Sea Shipyard belonged to the Republic of Ukraine. For the Varyag, the Ukrainian government initially hoped that Russia could buy the ship at full price, while Russia only agreed to pay the 30% of the project outstanding during the Soviet government. The two sides were deadlocked, and the negotiations finally broke down.
In 1995, the Ukrainian government handed over the Varyag to the Black Sea Shipyard for disposal. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the 'Varyag' was acquired by today's Republic of Ukraine for the sake of 'local conditions'. However, due to the poor economic situation in Ukraine and the inability to continue construction, the project was suspended in January 1992 and was abandoned halfway. Hearing Tang Yu say this, Mr. He said impatiently on the other end of the phone, "I know all these things! I even know more than you! My delegation went to Ukraine to inspect the aircraft carrier at the end of 1991 and the beginning of 1992! To be honest, we also want to buy it! But what about the money?! Where does the money come from?! Also, do you think the Americans will just watch us drive the aircraft carrier back like this?! If it's this problem, don't say it! The Military Commission has quarreled a lot about this matter. For this matter, the commander of the navy almost fought with the people of the army!"
Tang Yu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Mr. He's words! What?! We actually inspected this "Varyag" early in the morning?! Why is there no news?! In fact, it's not to blame Tang Yu for not knowing that this matter is only a small detailed description in the disclosure of later generations. In fact, after the disintegration of the Union, many businesses of a large number of military enterprises were disbanded, and aircraft carrier projects were also among them. At the end of 1991 or early 1992, when a teacher from a mainland college exchanged contact with a colleague of the Ukrainian Shipbuilding Institute, the other party mentioned that his country's aircraft carrier could not be built, so he put it near the school and invited him to come and have a look when he was free. After returning from Ukraine, the teacher immediately reported the matter to his superiors.
In March 1992, an aircraft carrier expedition from the mainland visited the Ukrainian city of Nikolayev (the city could not be found on the map at that time). The members of the mission are composed of shipbuilding technical experts and military representatives. The mission has two tasks: first, to understand the performance of the ship, and second, to understand the intentions of Ukraine. At that time, the disintegrated Soviet Union was being re-divided by 15 republics, and the Varyag, which began to be built in 1985, continued to be left to Ukraine. Because there was no money, the construction of the aircraft carrier was suspended in January 1992. By this time, the ship's engineering volume has been completed by more than 60%. Even the whole ship has been launched from the platform and moored at the dock dock. The large equipment on the ship has been installed, and even many cables have been laid in place.
At that time, Ukraine calculated that it would cost 250 million US dollars to disintegrate the ship, but the disintegrated party could only get 5 million US dollars! Therefore, Ukraine is actively looking for a next home for Varyag. At that time, the members of the investigation team saw that there were still many devices on the "Varyag" that had not been installed, and the power device was only placed on the base without screws.
"The reason why these devices are not installed is either because the equipment has not been delivered, or because the equipment has arrived but has no money to install." According to people familiar with the matter, the fate of "Varyag" was a sign before the collapse of the Soviet Union. The delivery of various configurations is not so timely. There are technical and economic problems here. For example, if the shipyard does not pay in advance, each factory will not be able to deliver the goods. After the delegation arrived in Ukraine, the other party was very enthusiastic and thought that the "comrade" had come. I just trust you very much and think you can help me support this 'son'. Some people also said, I'll come to your place to do it. The mission also found that the hull of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier (Ulyyanov) was parked not far from Varyag.
"It's more modern than 'Varyag'. The factory revealed that it would be dismantled and sold to an American company, which was very cheap." The Chinese personnel asked the factory director if he could come and have a look. The other party said, "What's the point of view? The shipyard is dismantling the ship." The inspection of "Varyag" quickly got an answer in the inspection team: First, this aircraft carrier has good performance and is worth it; Second, the Ukrainian factory is willing to sell it, even people and horses are given to you.
Zhang Xusan, a former deputy commander of the navy, said that such a mission had been dispatched many times. The idea of the navy at that time was to buy a semi-finished product, and the other was to develop it by itself. "The former is more suitable for starting". After returning to China, the delegation wrote a report to the superiors. This report seems to be factual now. There has been no reply since the report was handed in. Ask the relevant department, and the answer is "under study". Zheng Ming said that he understood very well that he was used to such a reply on the matter of the aircraft carrier. If you don't say it's okay, don't say no, just talk about research. As a result, the timing may be delayed.
Zhang Xusan said that at that time, there was a general estimate of the investment in the transformation. It would cost almost tens of billions of yuan to fully build the "Varyag". Later, the relevant departments calculated it again, and the cost was increased by 20 billion yuan. Therefore, the matter has been put on hold. When Zheng Ming retired from the position of Minister of Marine Clothing in 1994, he said to his commander and naval commander, "What I regret most is that I did not participate in the development of aircraft carriers."
Although Tang Yu didn't know about this, he knew another thing, so he still calmly said to Mr. He, "So, Grandpa He, do you know another thing?! The latest news is that the Russian Pacific Fleet is going to do something amazingly soon - they decided to sell the two aircraft carriers Minsk and Novorossiysk, the two largest aircraft carriers of the Russian Pacific Fleet, as scrap iron to South Korea's Daewoo Heavy Industries Group at a cost of 13 million US dollars! But the service period of these two capital ships is not yet half full!" With that, Tang Yu took a deep breath and said slowly, "Do you still think it has nothing to do with it now?"
"What?" Mr. He's volume on the other end of the phone suddenly increased and said to Tang Yu in awe, "Xiao Yu! This is not a joke! You should be responsible for your own words!" Mr. He, who was on the other end of the phone, said in a low voice, "If this is true, then we have to consider whether to participate in the acquisition of these aircraft carriers!" Hearing Mr. He's words, Tang Yu was finally relieved and then continued, "Grandpa He, you also know the 'Nev', right?! My message came from him. After I returned to Xiangjiang, I once talked to him on the phone. He complained to me on the phone that Russia's family would be sold out as soon as it was established! The news was also revealed, but then he denied this sentence. But I don't think there is a reason for the wind coming from the ground! So I called you urgently!"
Hearing Tang Yu's words, Mr. He was silent on the other end of the phone. In fact, Mr. He knew this "Nikayev"! Last time, Mi-26 was the nephew of the current Russian military commander who came back. For this reason, several bigwigs of Luhang still laughed so blindly! If so much information from him is reliable, so He Lao was silent for a while and then asked Tang Yu at the other end of the phone, "Is there any other news besides this?" Hearing Mr. He's words, the big stone in Tang Yu's heart finally fell down, so he said smoothly, "There is no latest news so far, but I can try my best to inquire about it! What I hope is that the country will make preparations quickly now. No matter what purpose South Korea acquires these two aircraft carriers, it will pose a real threat to us! So we have to stop this."
With that, Tang Yu took a deep breath and said the core of his words: "In any case, we must acquire our own aircraft carrier at this time! Even if it is just a acquisition and research, it will make a great contribution to our own research and development of aircraft carriers in the future! With the development of our country, we must consider the future marine strategy. We can even lose these aircraft carriers for ten or eight years, but as long as we use them one day! Then this will be the core force of our marine strategic development!"Hearing Tang Yu's words, Mr. He was stunned and then smiled! This boy must have finished the abdominal manuscript a long time ago! Otherwise, how can you say it so smoothly?! So He Lao said to Tang Yu on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Yu, you boy, tell me honestly! Have you had this idea for a long time?! Don't be careless with grandpa! To be honest! Otherwise, when you go back to the capital and see how I can deal with you, you little son of a bitch!" Hearing Mr. He's words, Tang Yu was stunned at first, and then smiled bitterly. These old people have been experienced for a long time. They really can't hide their ideas from them! So Tang Yu nodded and said in a low voice, "Yes, I have had an idea about Grandpa for a long time. I was about to talk to you at some time, but I didn't expect this to happen, so I just took this opportunity to make it clear to you.
Tang Yu organized his own language and then said, "Grandpa, I'm going to report this matter to the top grandpa. After all, this matter has a great impact. If I don't report it to the top grandpa, it's not good after all..." Hearing Tang Yu's words, He Lao couldn't help nodding, indeed! What the political commissar dislikes most is that others pull small circles to make small gangs. Although Taizu also said that "there is no party emperor's thought outside the party, and no faction in the party is strange", after all, it is indeed not liked by the top leaders to mess with private gangs. You can advance and retreat because your political tendencies and governance concepts are similar, but you can't form a small faction to engage in politics, crackdown, politics and persecution in the organization! After all, the catastrophe of those ten years is really a painful lesson for the generation of the supreme leader! Therefore, it is difficult for this blatant practice of ganging not to arouse their disgust. It is also for this reason that Tang Yu said it to Mr. He first and then reported it to the highest chief this time. So Mr. He nodded to Tang Yu with understanding and said, "I know. You can talk to the political commissar!" I'll ask the people below to connect you!"
After saying that, Mr. He hung up the phone. But at this time, Tang Yu did not put down the phone, but kept holding the phone and waited for the phone to be connected. After a while, the voice of the top leader with a strong Sichuan accent came from the other end of the phone and said slowly, "Xiao Yu! Your grandfather He told me about the situation! You did the right thing! Whether it's true or not, this news is very important to us! As for your grievances, I will help you deal with them. What you have to do now is to go back to Xiangjiang and continue to find out what the situation is going on with that 'nekayev'! And report to us in real time. I will leave this special line for you! When this matter is solved, Grandpa will ask for your credit!"
Tang Yu couldn't help but be moved when he heard the words of the supreme leader! Shen Sheng said slowly to the top leader at the other end of the phone, "I dare not forget the country's worries!" Although Xiaoyu is just a student, I am still a Chinese! As long as I can help the country, what if I go to please that 'nikayev'?! Grandpa, don't worry, I will confirm the authenticity of this news as soon as possible! I'll give you a complete report!"
