Chapter 307 - 307 Can It Really Fly?
307 Can It Really Fly?
Had they built a plane?
Could the Dinglong Corporation even build planes?
One had to know that the core technology of aircraft manufacturing had always been controlled by foreign countries. There were no technical blueprints in the country, so they could only be imported.
In recent years, although there were many domestically-produced planes, the technology was also in the hands of the military.
No matter how rich the Dinglong Corporation was, it was still a private company. Could it surpass the military’s research and development ability?
Everyone’s first reaction was that it was unlikely.
Then, Liu Yun asked, “Is it a passenger plane?”
After asking, Liu Yun felt that his question was unnecessary. If it wasn’t a passenger plane, could it possibly be a fighter jet?
Then, Ye Xuan said, “It’s a fighter jet.”
Liu Yun was confused.
Everyone was even more shocked. A fighter jet? Was this something the Dinglong Corporation could build?
Everyone felt their jaws drop in shock. They wondered if they were hallucinating.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s affirmative gaze, everyone was even more shocked.
What kind of strength was this?
The young masters and young ladies of Jinling suddenly felt that they were really narrow-minded.
A… fighter jet?
Liu Yun quickly persuaded Ye Xuan nervously, “Brother Ye, although you have extraordinary wealth now, there are some things that you can’t touch!”
Speaking of fighter jets, this could be considered a military weapon. It was illegal to casually manufacture firearms. If they started with a fighter jet, they might accidentally touch the country’s reverse scale. At that time, it would not be fun.
No matter how rich Ye Xuan was, he might not have a good time.
At this moment, Liu Yun was really thinking about Ye Xuan, so he said this.
“That’s right, Brother Ye. Don’t be rash!”
“That’s right, that’s right. It won’t be fun if we’re discovered!”
The surrounding people also started to persuade Ye Xuan.
Then, Ye Xuan waved his hand to interrupt them and said, “Let’s go in and take a look.”
Everyone followed Ye Xuan into the Jinling branch.
This was the first time the young masters had come in. There were a few divisions in the Jinling branch, such as the reception area, the office area, the research department, the experimental workshop, and so on. They had just seen the luxurious decorations of the reception area. When they entered the office area, they did not expect that the quality of the decorations had not decreased at all. Not only that, but there was also a fitness area, a self-service beverage area, an entertainment gaming room, and so on.
This group of young masters was extremely envious and shouted that they wanted to work for Brother Ye.
Further in, there was modern equipment in the research area. The employees were wearing white research clothes. There were many futuristic-looking machines in the corridor that looked very advanced.
When they arrived at the experimental workshop, the employees were also working in an orderly manner. The people and logistics intersected without interfering with each other.
Although the families of these young masters and young ladies all had businesses, they could not compare to the ones in front of them.
At this moment, it was an eye-opener. They could not help but sigh. “In comparison, how can my family’s business be called a company? At most, it’s just a small workshop!”
When they reached the lowest level of the production workshop, Liu Zonglin was already waiting there to welcome Ye Xuan.
Behind Liu Zonglin was a huge shutter door. After entering, they were in the workshop for manufacturing planes.
Looking at the shutter door, it was at least ten meters tall and more than twenty meters wide.
When everyone saw this scene, they began to imagine what kind of huge object that plane would be.
This had to be at least twenty meters long.
Tsk tsk, their company didn’t even have enough parking space. However, Ye Xuan’s company could even store a fighter jet.
Thinking about it, under a busy building in Jinling, crazy entrepreneurs were actually secretly building military fighter jets.
Just imagining it was a little exciting.
However, at the same time, everyone was even more worried about Ye Xuan.
This was simply walking on a tightrope!
Seeing Ye Xuan arrive, Liu Zonglin said, “President Ye, we’ve already built it. The operating system and measurement system have also been completed. All that’s left is the actual test.”
Ye Xuan obviously didn’t expect them to do it so quickly. It seemed like they had used a lot of strength.
Hence, Ye Xuan nodded in satisfaction. “I didn’t expect you guys to be so efficient. You did well.”
Liu Yun and the others looked at Liu Zonglin’s confident expression and became even more flustered.
The Dinglong Corporation was determined to do something that they should not touch.
The young masters behind Liu Yun spoke in private. They were all very worried.
Then, Ye Xuan said, “Let’s go and take a look.”
Liu Zonglin pressed a button and opened the shutter door behind them. Then, he led them through a long corridor and arrived at an even larger factory.
…
Then, a fighter jet about two meters long appeared in front of them.
Everyone was silent.
When the young masters present saw this, they simply wanted to curse.
Did Ye Xuan call this thing a fighter jet?
It was such a big workshop, but they had placed such a small airplane model here.
“Isn’t this just an airplane model?” Everyone complained.
“Brother Ye is really humorous. You scared me to death just now.”
“D*mn, this workshop is so big. I thought there was really a large fighter jet secretly stored here.”
“I’ve already imagined a soul-stirring military drama… Then, you showed me this…”
As they complained, everyone felt a little relieved.
It was good that it was an airplane model and not a real one.
However, Ye Xuan never said that it was the real thing.
At the thought of this, all the young masters smiled bitterly.
After all, Ye Xuan’s identity and assets were there. It was no wonder that they treated the fighter jet Ye Xuan mentioned as a real fighter jet.
In addition, this factory was really huge. The ceiling was at least 15 meters tall. They thought that they would see a huge plane.
In the end, it was just this little thing. It really brought them despair.
However, everyone’s topic quickly shifted to the design of the fighter jet itself.
This was a sixth-generation fighter jet.
Although they did not know about the fifth or sixth generation, they could tell that this fighter jet was not simple just by looking at the streamlined body and the shape of the wings.
“Sigh, this workmanship is really exquisite. The design is also very good. Although I can’t tell what model of fighter jet it is, I don’t think it’s an old model.”
“I didn’t expect Brother Ye to be a military enthusiast. This airplane model cost a lot of money, right?”
“However, it’s a good thing. Does Brother Ye want to open an aerial model museum?”
Ye Xuan watched as they discussed the fighter jet animatedly. He didn’t care what they said and turned to ask Liu Zonglin, “Are these various parts assembled?”
Liu Zonglin began to report, “Everything is ready. As long as we add fuel, we can take off. We’re just waiting for Chairman Ye’s orders.”
“Then let’s start adding the fuel.”
Then, Liu Zonglin’s employees began to add aviation fuel to the fighter jet.
This stunned everyone. What did this mean?
Were they adding fuel?
“This can’t really fly, right?” Liu Yun was shocked.
