In September, the weather in England was cool and pleasant, but it could not stop the enthusiasm of the air show. In the first week of September 1991, the biennial international air and space exhibition in England was held as scheduled.
Unlike previous air shows, this year's fanbaoluo is filled with the joy of a winner.
At the beginning of the year, the US led multinational force swept through Iraq and liberated Kuwait.
In the middle of the year, the internal situation of the Soviet Union continued to be turbulent, and the Allied republics were ready to move. Until last month's 819 incident, the internal contradictions of the Soviet Union completely broke out, and then the Baltic countries took the lead in independence, followed by Belarus, Georgia and Moldova successively declared independence.
So far, the former powerful Soviet Union has actually disintegrated.
In less than a year, the West thundered across the Middle East; the East fell and fell apart, and people witnessed history while celebrating the advent of a new era.
As one of the world's three major air shows, fanbaoluo air show just grasped people's heart and held this air show as a special celebration.
Not only the participating countries have set a historical record, but also the exhibitors have reached the saturation level.
In particular, the United States, the United States aviation enterprises, not to mention, the United States Air Force also came to join the fun, will participate in the Gulf War's main aircraft lined up, the most eye-catching exhibition area is full.
So much so that the British local media exclaimed that the air show was not so much a commercial exposition as a show off after the victory of the US air force.
The US Air Force's response to the media's blunt comments was even more outspoken: "the US air force takes advantage of this air show to convey an indisputable fact to its allies and other good countries that a strong US military is the guarantee of the world's security affairs."
In the past, if the US Air Force dared to say that, even if the Soviet air force and the homeland defense air force would not teach the US air force to "be a man" every minute, they would show their biceps and ask the us what they said just now.
But now that the Soviet Union is critically ill, let alone the biceps, it has no strength to show its teeth, so the arrogance and hegemony of the US military are inevitable.
With the backing of the U.S. air force, the U.S. large, medium and small aviation manufacturing is naturally very strong. Although it is not as strong as buying and selling at the air show, with the U.S. technological advantage of dominating the world in aerospace, the whole transaction volume is still on a one-sided trend.
In particular, Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, Northrop, Lockheed, Grumman and other aviation giants account for more than half of the trade volume of the whole air show.
In contrast, European local aviation manufacturers are much embarrassed, especially Airbus. Although it has also obtained orders at the air show, it is far from comparable with similar manufacturers in the United States in terms of quality and quantity.
Even some of the aircraft orders were reached through other transactions between the governments, which is the same as the domestic wedding, the birth of children, the banquet, and the guests coming along with the members.
The key is to maintain good relations between the two countries. As for orders like Airbus, they really don't care.
In the face of this situation, Airbus and other European aviation manufacturers are not depressed.
However, compared with Director Zhao, who led the Chinese team to attend the air show, depressed Europe is a little bit of a wizard. You know, he has been chased by a bunch of Western media reporters these days and asked:
did the Chinese aircraft use the high-end aviation materials of the take-off system?
As the competent department of China's aerospace industry, does it investigate the bad behavior of Tengfei group?
Director Zhao said yes or no, there is no way. These western media are too good at digging holes, let alone answering. As long as you hesitate in front of the camera for a few seconds, the TV news in the afternoon will dare to say that you are too guilty to face the reporter's questions.
Make director Zhao almost crazy, want to throw out Zhuang Jianye this guy, face the media bombardment.
However, what makes him even more depressed is that Zhuang Jianye, who originally said he would come to attend the air show, has not been seen for three days since the opening of the air show.
If it's not for the occasional call from Zhuang Jianye, director Zhao thinks the goods have evaporated.
Of course, affected by the high-end aviation materials of Tengfei, the transaction volume of domestic aviation manufacturers is basically so poor that they have no friends. However, compared with other countries that put money making first, the leaders of the Ministry of Aeronautics and Astronautics, including director Zhao, have not really paid attention to this.
Because even if there is no such thing as taking off as high-end aviation materials, it is difficult to achieve much breakthrough with the current situation of the domestic aviation industry.
This has been verified by the practice of previous large-scale international air shows in the past few years.
Therefore, the keynote of director Zhao's participation is very clear, that is, to study with a devout attitude. After all, what such large-scale international air shows show are the latest developments and new achievements of world aerospace, which is an excellent platform for the domestic aviation industry in the development stage to trace the world-class technology.
Of course, if there is an order, it's better to overfulfill the exhibition task. If there is no order, it doesn't matter. It's better to learn than anything.With this mentality, director Zhao's encirclement and interception of Western media reporters can be avoided. Anyway, the main purpose is not to run orders. There is no need to show all kinds of shows in the media. As the saying goes, if you have no desire, you will be just. I can't play you. Can't you avoid it?
This is not, just received a call from Zhuang Jianye, the boy is about to run away, the result is not careful with a pile of reporters hit a straight, director Zhao without saying a word hang up the phone, turn around like a rabbit, ran away.
……
"The Chinese official named Zhao was so cunning that he turned around and ran when he saw us."
Jennifer Taylor ambushed director Zhao in advance, ready to be unprepared. She didn't think director Zhao would turn around and run without saying a word to them, which made Taylor very depressed. When she returned to her seat in the flight performance area, she threw her recording equipment into Liszt's arms: "next time, it's you. I don't like those timid Chinese."
Liszt took the recording equipment for the interviews, took out a bottle of soda, twisted it open and handed it to Taylor. He said with a smile, "Chinese people are not cowards, they are just not good at expressing themselves."
"No, in my opinion, they are just as timid as a mouse. They even dare not face the media. What else can they do? Would you just bury your head in the sand and hide the truth? Do you think it's Mr. odheim? " Tyler took two mouthfuls of soda, and then glanced at oldheim next to Lister.
Odheim was a little distracted by Taylor's graceful figure and sexy eyes, but he soon reacted and laughed: "you're right, Miss Taylor. When you take off their camouflage coat, they lose everything. It's ridiculous to say that I was afraid of the high-end aviation materials of the Tengfei department. Thanks to Mr. Liszt's help, I'm very happy Only then can we know that they are completely illusory. "
After hearing this, Liszt didn't say anything, but the confident smile on his slightly fat face explained everything. Taylor also lost his breath, sat down next to Liszt, gave him a kiss, and then held Liszt's arm and asked, "what's the next flight show?"
"It's like the Slovak folk show team. What kind of model are they using?" Lister couldn't think of it for a moment, and odeheim said: "l-39c albatross advanced trainer."
"It's the l-39c again. How many times has it been since the air show okay? That's... "
Taylor was a little disappointed, but as soon as he complained, the rest was stuck in his throat, because two flying people with wings suddenly appeared behind the two l-39cs in the sky. Seeing this scene, Taylor's beautiful big eyes immediately widened, and the whole person's mouth widened.
It's not just Tyler. Liszt and odheim were speechless when they saw this scene, but soon they were shocked, because at the next moment, the big screen next to the grandstand showed the picture of the air, and behind the flying man, there was a big line written in flowing Chinese Red:
China · take off
