"This is what it should be." Xiao Yang immediately affirmed. In the expert group, except for the assistants, the youngest ones are all over forty years old. They are all people with families. The Spring Festival is the most important holiday in China.

And they don't care about these ten or eight days. There is no need for people to spend the Spring Festival in a foreign country for the travel expenses. "The company does not lack that money. Those experts are all treasures. Our future development depends on them."

Don't be stingy where you shouldn't be."

The technology is already there. As long as you are familiar with the process, the billions of dollars in funds they have prepared are absolutely sufficient. What they lack most right now is people. In his opinion, if they can spend some money to win over people, that is absolutely

worth.

And Li Zhiwei knows this better. His familiarity and relevant knowledge about the country are not comparable to that of Xiao Yang and Hu Kai. Those experts may not give you the opportunity to spend money for them, just a few plane tickets.

What does it matter? According to him, if someone can use money to keep people here, he would be willing to do so at three to five million per person.

"There's something that I told Xiaokai." He looked at Xiao Yang, "The company is preparing a transfer of funds to dig out talents. It's still early for management. They are mainly technical experts who have been seconded. Some of them cannot be moved.

In addition, you can try others. After all, we are still attractive. In addition, we need to train our own professionals from the bottom. Xiaokai also has some ideas during this time, let him tell you..."

Xiao Yang was very clear about the issue of talent and set his sights on Hu Kai.

Hu Kai received Li Zhiwei's instruction and quickly started talking, "As for experts, there are too many involved. The laboratory has not been officially launched yet, and our advantages have not been reflected, so we put it aside for the time being and train our own technical personnel.

It can be done immediately. What I mean is to cooperate with major universities with related majors... sponsorship, outsourcing of less important projects, etc. If you do this, you will need a not insignificant amount of funds...

"

Xiao Yang left China since he was a child. If it weren't for Hu Kai's explanation, he really wouldn't know that universities and companies can still play like this. It just requires some money to build a huge technical reserve team. In his opinion, it is absolutely

It's a cost-effective business. The laboratory is a place where technology is done. Technical personnel are the most important. Problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

"Money is a trivial matter. Mr. Xie told me last time that if the personnel can keep up, more than 80% of the parts will be domestically produced, which can be achieved within five years. The domestic fourth-generation fighter jets are now scheduled to enter service, and we have to catch up.

Time, so don’t worry too much about money. You can really burn through the US$1.5 billion in five years. As long as there are results, even if I borrow it after five years, your funds will be indispensable..."

Li Zhiwei and Hu Kai looked at each other and smiled.

"No." Li Zhiwei shook his hand, "It's different from development, it's just digestion. Excluding the hardware facilities, the money really doesn't cost much." At this point, he looked at Hu Kai, "If it's just to get things out, it won't cost much."

If these 1.5 billion US dollars were lost, then this guy is either embezzling or not doing anything."

Hu Kai was not angry, but nodded and said: "Uncle Li is right. Although the laboratory is a technical industry, at the current stage, at least within the next five years, our laboratory is different from others. Others have tens of billions in R&D."

But we are different. We only need to digest these technologies. If the US$1.5 billion is really used up like this, it would be completely derelict on my part."

"It's good to have this confidence." Xiao Yang clapped his hands, laughed, and sighed in his heart that Hu Kai was really different. How could he have the confidence to say such a thing three years ago, and how could he have such responsibility?

Although he did a lot of things to establish the laboratory, there is still one person who is the most important, and that is Mr. Xie. Without Mr. Xie, it would not be said that they would not be able to build this laboratory, but it would definitely not be that easy. In the afternoon, three

I went to invite Mr. Xie to tea in person, and then had dinner together.

The next day, Zhao Nan took Lina, Alice and the children back to her parents' home. Xiao Yang went there with him. He did not stay there that day, but returned to the compound and prepared to go south.

He had something to talk to Commander Xie, and Hu Yunyun and Ou Jingtian were under the care of Secretary Wang in Jiangnan. It was reasonable and reasonable for him to go there. The new year was approaching, and these two were about to be busy.

I had a little free time these two days, so he happened to come over.

"The new aircraft carrier has almost been decided and the South China Sea Fleet will be deployed. Commander Xie has been fighting for it. You can let him know." Hu Zhiyun came back in the evening and told him a piece of news.

Ou Jingtian is his son-in-law, and he is also taken care of by Commander Xie in Jiangnan. His status is destined to not have a high position in the future, and he is also destined to maintain a certain degree of independence within the army, but these favors can allow Xiao Yang to sell

go.

Xiao Yang nodded, "I know he has been fighting for this, but the aircraft carrier will not be launched until at least next year? Is it confirmed so soon?"

"It's good that it will take more than two years to enter service, but for the aircraft carrier to enter service, the preparation of the troops is also indispensable. The ports, supplies, etc. must keep up. Two or three years is not much at all..."

Early the next morning, Xiao Yang arrived at the airport and headed to Jiangnan. At about ten o'clock in the morning, the plane landed at the airport of the South China Sea Fleet.

Commander Xie personally came to pick up the plane. Seeing Xiao Qi and Duan Hu carrying a large military green box down, he smiled and said, "What? Are you bringing me a gift? I can't bear it."

Xiao Yang patted the box and laughed as well, "You're right, but they're not expensive things. You won't accept those things, and I won't give them away. Some seafood from Africa, lobsters, and groupers."

Something like that.”

Commander Xie took a breath, "Hey... I owe you a big favor. It's not a valuable thing to you, but it's quite expensive for you to come all the way. If it were anyone else, I really wouldn't dare accept it.

It doesn’t matter if it’s you, others won’t say you bribed me. In fact, I’m the only one asking for it... Someone, please move the things to the headquarters canteen.”

"We are old acquaintances, why do we need to be so shabby?" Xiao Yang was dissatisfied, "No one is asking for help. I am a friend. I can help you if you can. Regardless of my other identity, I am your junior."

Commander Xie was also an open-minded person, and he waved his hand quickly, "Okay, let's not talk anymore, and don't say that I am not a junior."

…

There were only two people left in the office. After communicating about some matters at Kutos Port, Xiao Yang talked about the aircraft carrier.

"By the way, I have news that you have not received. It is almost certain that China's second aircraft carrier will serve in the South China Sea Fleet. I really congratulate you on this."

Commander Xie's eyes lit up, "Really?"

The first aircraft carrier was settled in the North Sea Fleet. At that time, because of some issues such as the East China Sea, he gave up voluntarily and did not fight. However, over the years, the disputes in the South China Sea seemed to be more intense than those in the East China Sea. Having an aircraft carrier fleet has become his concern. Since then,

He has been fighting for it since he received the news about the aircraft carrier preparation.

But until now, there has been no definite reply from above, neither saying no, nor saying yes.

This made him very "hurt".

As a soldier, he knows how to obey orders and stand as a citizen of a country. He also understands that aircraft carriers are not that fun. The North Sea Fleet has experience with the first aircraft carrier. From this aspect, the second aircraft carrier gives them

It should be.

But he also has another identity, and that is the commander of the South China Sea Fleet.

He also has enough reasons to fight for his own fleet and to deal with the increasingly chaotic situation in the South China Sea.

"My uncle told me." Xiao Yang was very honest and told the source of the information. "Yesterday, their department had a meeting to discuss this matter, and it was basically decided..."

Commander Xie no longer had any doubts. He and Hu Zhiyun didn't have much contact. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he found that Hu Zhiyun was a bit "cold". At first, he had some opinions, but later he realized that something was wrong.

Having met Xiao Yang in Nian, he completely confirmed this. Knowing the difference between Hu Zhiyun, he naturally would not doubt the authenticity of the news.

He was very wise and did not say Hu Zhiyun's name, but he was more certain of his previous defense of Albert Sing, "Then I have to change my schedule and go to the capital."

Hu Zhiyun had expected these words last night, and Xiao Yang quickly stopped him according to Hu Zhiyun's instructions, "It's not necessary, some things are too much to go too far... Well, this is not what I said."

Was it what Hu Zhiyun said? Commander Xie thought of it immediately. Although he didn't know why he was not allowed to go to the capital for a run, he chose to believe it and nodded, "That's okay, I won't go. You...

Please greet me a little, and don't let any surprises happen. I'll treat you to a big dinner when the time comes, and I'll do it myself."

"Then you'd better prepare early." Xiao Yang laughed.

"No problem." Listening to Xiao Yang's tone, Commander Xie knew that if he dared to say this, he was confident. He was overjoyed and agreed with a smile, "It's no problem to treat you to a nice meal with my allowance."

He only stayed in the South China Sea Fleet for one day. The next day, the plane flew directly to the provincial capital. Secretary Wang had official duties during the day. Unlike Commander Xie, Xiao Yang did not bother him. He stayed in the hotel all day during the day until night, when he met up with Hu Yunyun.

, and Ou Jingtian had dinner together before heading to the provincial party committee compound.

Let’s not talk about the oil incident, let’s just say that the city under the provincial capital has become a sister city with Kutos. Jiangnan Province has also benefited a lot from this. The domestic military and political affairs are separated, but they are often closely connected. Most of Xiao Yang’s energy is reflected in the military.

, but Vice Chairman Wang knew that these were just superficial phenomena. When he saw Xiao Yang, he apologized repeatedly and said that he was really busy with official work during the day and could only get together at night. His attitude was quite low.
