1874 This is an aircraft carrier, you actually want to use it as a gambling ship(1/2)

The huge warship, which was rusty under the sun, was the Varyag!

According to history, the first real aircraft carrier of New China.

Although the 707 aircraft carrier is being built in China and will even be launched soon, it is not a large-scale equipment considered by the Navy.

The 707 aircraft carrier has a displacement of only 27,000 tons, which is still a little too small after all.

China has a huge seaside, and a coastline of tens of thousands of kilometers needs to be protected. The 707 aircraft carrier, which is only for carrying helicopters, can only carry short-range/vertical takeoff fighter jets at most. Its main function is to be used as maritime rescue and also has a little combat capability. It is just to be able to bear the small body of a large helicopter carrier with the name of an aircraft carrier?

After all, the huge sea border of a great country still needs a real aircraft carrier with strong combat power to protect it.

Whether it is the shell or technical information, the aircraft carrier in front of us will save a lot of time and research funds.

Today's PLA is not only lacking in funds, but also lacking in time.

"Indeed, according to the previous economic strength of the Soviet Union, if such aircraft carriers were not delayed due to funding during the construction process, they had even formed combat capabilities." Xie Kai saw that the people around him looked at the giant not far away and had a complicated expression, and he organized his language in his heart and spoke.

Makarov ignored his flattery.

The old factory manager Gankevich glanced at Xie Kai more, "What a pity..."

The people around him didn't know what a pity he was, but Xie Kai knew it.

At its peak, the Soviet Union made the entire Western world unaware of the taste and unable to sleep at night.

With this huge empire, the entire earth would shake three times.

Not bragging.

Now, this empire is gone.

Everything was over.

"Actually everything was destined from the beginning. If the Soviet government did not invest all resources in the heavy industry, but the entire industrial system was fully developed and the people's living standards could be guaranteed, it would not have happened like this at all. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the Soviet government. After all, communism has been the enemy of capitalism since its birth. Western countries have developed more than 200 years from the industrial revolution that began in the 1860s... By the time of World War I, although Tsarist Russia had developed huge industries, it could not compete with other countries at all..."

Xie Kai's words made Maklov, who was thinking about Varyag, come to his senses.

Looking at him with interest, "Do you know the history of industrial development?"

Xie Kai rolled his eyes, "Anyone who has been to high school knows this history. Our country, because of conservative thinking, missed the opportunity, and struggled for a hundred years, was the birth of a new China... Similarly, because Tsarist Russia was overthrown and the Soviet Union rose... In fact, both the Soviet Union and China were blocked by the capitalist Western world. Not long after the Soviet Union was established, it happened to encounter such an opportunity as a world economic crisis..."

"So, are you planning to build your industrialization from the remains of the Soviet Union?" Marklov snorted coldly.

I really don't like Xie Kai very much.

It’s not that he is familiar with Xie Kai, but who Xie Kai is.

At present, many factories in Ukraine, whether they are technical drawings, equipment, or even technical workers are being transported away by the Chinese.

"Davari, your view is biased. When the founding of New China, the conditions were much worse than when the Soviet Union was established. Our domestic industrial foundation was almost zero, and Tsarist Russia had already established a huge industry... The economic crisis before World War II gave the Soviet Union the opportunity to move back various industrial equipment on a large scale from the United States and even Europe... Except for some of the projects assisted by the Soviet elder brother, our country's other industrial supporting systems were built by ourselves from poverty and backward!" Xie Kai was dissatisfied.

Damn, can the situation be the same?

The Soviet Union overthrew the Tsar because it did not want to continue participating in World War I.

Moreover, at that time, after the Tsarist reform, abolishing the serfdom, and developing industries in large quantities, Tsarist Russia's development was very fast.

China is different.

The country's gates were bombarded by the great powers with giant ships and cannons. Although the Qing government launched a vigorous Westernization Movement, it was a big deal.

The Qing Dynasty carried out the Westernization Movement in order to maintain the rule of Aisin Gioro, rather than really wanting to be strong.

Even though he knew that the navy was short of funds, the woman from the Qing Dynasty would rather spend two million taels of silver on her birthday every year than to allocate one million taels of silver to the Beiyang Fleet of the No. 1 Navy in Asia to improve the combat effectiveness of the fleet.

In the end, in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Japanese navy, whose size was much different, completely told the Chinese that the Westernization Movement went bankrupt.

Even if the Qing Dynasty disappeared soon, China's industry had almost no development.

Decades of warlord melee eventually led to the invasion of the Japanese. Finally, it was not until the founding of New China that the land of China was peaceful again.

After decades of warlords' melee, they all went to war. Then, after eight years of war of resistance, where can there be time to develop industry?

It would be strange if the Soviet Union had such a setting that the Soviet Union could develop to this day.

Makarov couldn't help but look at Xie Kai more.

Although he didn't know what Xie Kai was thinking at this moment.

"So, do you also have a complete industrial supporting facilities?" Makarov obviously narrowed his eyes.

Looking at Xie Kai jokedly.

Xie Kai did not answer him.

Luo Feng also frowned. He didn't understand industry, but he believed that China was not much worse than the Soviet Union. Giving China so much time to develop, China could completely surpass the Soviet Union: "The factory director Davari, from its establishment in 1922 to its disintegration in 1991, after 70 years, let's not talk about the basics, nor do we have many opportunities for the Soviet Union to get advanced technology from Europe. Giving China so much time is definitely not much worse than the Soviet Union!"

Luo Feng's words made Xie Kai secretly give him a thumbs up.

This kid can't be seen normally, he is still an angry young man.

However, he didn't think what Luo Feng said was wrong.

If the founding of New China is given 70 years of development, by 2019, China's achievements will definitely not be much worse than the achievements made by the Soviet Union in the past 70 years.

You know, even after so many years, China has not developed for so many years.

After all, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the new China could not continue to develop rapidly without any delay.

Makarov didn't argue with Luo Feng.

Tan Lin is like a fool, and he really regrets why he did not study Russian seriously. Although he has changed hundreds of female Russian teachers so far, he is discussing biological issues such as the origin of life with female Russian teachers every night, rather than focusing on language learning.

After all, some things do not require language at all.

During the whole process, neither Xie Kai nor Luo Feng considered his situation.

Gankevic has been thinking about Xie Kai, guessing his purpose, and at the same time guessing Xie Kai's background.

Instead of speaking, Makarov continued to move forward.

Xie Kai went further.

The closer the distance, the clearer he could see the Varyag.

The Iron Behemoth!

Unfortunately, this is a giant steel beast that has not yet grown up.

Along the way, Makarov almost didn't say anything anymore, and he had never agreed to introduce the Varyag to Xie Kai.

He just followed his fixed route until he boarded the Varyag, and Xie Kai, Luo Feng and others followed him, but he did not stop him.

The old factory manager Gankevic did not board the semi-finished aircraft carrier again, but was alone on the board, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xie Kai followed Makarov, and even though the former did not explain anything, when he entered the inside of the aircraft carrier, he realized that compared with the rusty appearance outside, the inside of the aircraft carrier was almost brand new.

Many places, even though they are still empty, the pipelines and other areas have not been installed, the interior of the cabin is extremely messy and not as dilapidated as outside.

This is much better than what looks like outside.

Until the end, standing on the aircraft carrier deck, the old factory manager Makarov stood on the rusty flight deck of the aircraft carrier. Looking at the huge space reserved by the bridge without installing various systems, he looked confused. Only then could Xie Kai feel how much aggrievance was in the old factory manager.

When the 404 base was on the verge of bankruptcy, wasn’t it the same for Zheng Yucheng and others?

You know, when the aircraft carrier had not yet stopped working, Makarov, the factory manager, was surrounded by a large group of leaders of shipyards and supervisors of various systems of the aircraft carrier.

Tan Feng saw the real aircraft carrier with his own eyes and even boarded the unfinished aircraft carrier. He was very excited. Even if he had countless questions in his heart, he couldn't ask them.

So, he ran aside to see the comparison between the aircraft carrier and the surrounding reference objects.

Luo Feng just stared at the way he came, fearing that when someone would suddenly come here with a rocket or something.

The Soviet Union collapsed, and a large number of Soviet weapons and equipment were abandoned. In the past, it may not be easy to get some strategic weapons such as mushroom eggs in the original Soviet territory, but it is enough to get some rockets or something, or even just give a cigarette to the guard.

There are many, please take whatever you want.

If you sell scrap iron, people don’t charge it. Who knows if this thing will suddenly explode?

"Is this the legendary Makarov Avenue?" Xie Kai was a little reluctant to face such a scene.

Makarov ignored him.

The scene is very depressing.

The rising sun makes people clearly know the rapid passage of time.

"You really have the ability to complete the construction of this aircraft carrier?"

I don’t know how long it took, maybe an hour or only a minute, but when Xie Kai was almost out of patience, Makarov suddenly asked this question.

Really capable of completing the construction of this aircraft carrier?

Xie Kai was stunned.

He quickly reacted: "Of course, we have the ability. If a great power is gone, there will always be another great power to rise. Although we do not have the ability now, even if we only have one shell, we can let him continue to complete it until he travels in the deep blue ocean..."

"Your technology is too poor and your foundation is too weak. You don't need to build such an aircraft carrier until you build it." When Makarov said this, he did not mean to look down on the country behind Xie Kai at all.

This was what he said after deep thought.

"Davari, the factory manager, I am just a waste collector. If it is in Russia, maybe you should have heard of our company's name, the Blonde Resource Recycling Company. As long as it is valuable, our company will recycle everything..." Xie Kai directly took out the nouveau riche company with a golden chain that was thicker than a dog leash as a shield.

This made Makarov look at Xie Kai in surprise.
