Chapter 28: Summoning Great Xia Commercial Aircraft; Developing a 100% Domestic C919 Large Aircraft! (Seeking Follow-up Reads)
Various thoughts swirled rapidly in the minds of the two, ideas popping up one after another.
"He's an organization. That's right, Old Zhang, you guessed correctly."
Zheng Lixing clenched his fist, his excited face flushing red: "No wonder this mysterious person can obtain this kind of technology. He didn't get it single-handedly from Eagle Country; it's an entire organization."
The mysterious person had never said he was just one person. On the contrary, he didn't even hide the fact that he could easily obtain top-secret technology from Eagle Country.
All these signs indicated that behind this 'mysterious person' was a very tight-knit organization.
Zhang Yuli nodded, continuing along the same line of thought: "In these few conversations, the mysterious person sometimes said 'I' and sometimes said 'we'."
"This proves that the personnel interacting with our Great Xia Academy of Sciences might have been changing."
Zheng Lixing's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed: "Exactly, it must be like that."
Such self-references rarely change under normal circumstances. The last time he referred to himself as 'I,' but after obtaining the technology this time, the reference changed to 'we.'
"It seems the person who contacted us last time was clearly of a higher rank," Zheng Lixing began to deduce based on the sparse clues.
In such an organization, titles were very important. Being able to refer to himself as 'I' meant he had the ability to represent the entire organization in communicating with Great Xia. Using 'we' indicated he was merely acting on orders.
As for whether this mysterious organization existed, the two didn't have many doubts.
Great Xia had only joined the World Trade System a few years ago. How could it possibly know about a mysterious organization that even Eagle Country couldn't find?
Moreover, it wasn't unbelievable for such an organization to exist. Who knew how long this mysterious organization had been hidden in Eagle Country?
Eagle Country had plenty of all sorts of people within its borders. A hundred or two hundred years ago, many Chinese laborers were already building railways and settling there.
Even a hundred years ago, Great Xia often maintained contact with organizations like the Hongmen in Eagle Country. Even Eagle Country's Father of the Nation, Roosevelt, was a former legal advisor for such an organization.
Their capabilities back then wouldn't have been much inferior to this mysterious organization today.
Just then.
Suddenly, Liu Zhixue, who had been outside, walked in, asking with some curiosity: "Dean, did the mysterious person send a message just now?"
He had been resting these past few days because the constant day-and-night shifts had led to some recent neurasthenia.
Although he was younger than Dean Zhang and the others, he was already nearing fifty, and his body couldn't handle it anymore.
"Yes." Zheng Lixing looked at his sleepy expression and poured him a cup of tea: "Little Liu, you just woke up? Have some water first."
"Okay, thanks, Old Zheng." Liu Zhixue took a sip of water, moistening his dry lips.
He immediately asked impatiently: "Dean, Old Zheng, what technology did the mysterious person give our Great Xia Academy of Sciences this time? Is it the B-2 bomber?"
The reason he had rushed to get up without even taking a drink was his eagerness to know the answer.
After all, one should never underestimate the curiosity of scientific researchers. Without this spirit of digging to the root of the matter, they wouldn't have reached such heights.
Zhang Yuli smiled and shook his head: "No, this time it's not the B-2 bomber, but another technology."
"Another technology? May I know what it is?"
"It's the complete set of technical design blueprints for the Boeing 777 series."
Zhang Yuli didn't conceal much and stated the answer directly.
From the beginning, Liu Zhixue had been exposed to the F-22 fighter jet technology sent by the mysterious person, and he also had the authority to know the technical content.
Liu Zhixue suddenly understood: "The technology for the Boeing 777 series? That's in line with the mysterious person's style."
This technology didn't surprise him.
Didn't they previously say they would obtain the B-2 bomber technology? This was just the technology for the Boeing 777 series; what was the big deal?
"However, he also asked us to do something this time," Zhang Yuli said with a smile still on his face: "He offered a reward of one billion US dollars."
"One billion US dollars? This price can be described as cheap." On this point, Liu Zhixue's opinion was the same as Zheng Lixing's; they both felt the price was excessively low.
"But, the mysterious person asked us to use the entire reward to build a thousand schools in Northwest Province."
"What??" Liu Zhixue's expression was identical to theirs just moments ago, filled with shock and confusion.
What was his motive?
Why build a thousand schools in Northwest Province? What was the mysterious person's purpose in doing this?
These doubts appeared in Liu Zhixue's mind, but they quickly vanished, replaced by a sigh: "It seems this mysterious person is a true patriot..."
Whether the mysterious person was from Northwest Province or not, Liu Zhixue didn't care. He was simply deeply impressed by this rare and commendable decision.
Although he wasn't from Northwest Province, his hometown was right next to it. The educational situation there was comparable to Northwest Province's, and he was well aware of the local education level.
Trading one billion US dollars for a thousand schools in the region showed the mysterious person's sincere heart. Why bother about his identity?
"Dean, I'll head back now." Liu Zhixue rubbed his eyes. Having gotten the answer he wanted, he planned to go back and rest for a while longer.
"You should get some good rest." Zhang Yuli seemed to recall something: "Oh right, go and ask if anyone from Great Xia Commercial Aircraft is in Yanjing, and notify him to come over quickly."
"Okay." Liu Zhixue nodded.
He didn't find it surprising. Having already obtained the complete set of technology for the Boeing 777 series, the domestic large aircraft project would naturally need its charter revised.
Half an hour later.
Outside the Dean's office at the Great Xia Academy of Sciences.
A guest was rushing over at that moment, brushing off some dust from his clothes.
"Why is Dean Zhang looking for me?" Xu Qianren muttered.
As the General Manager of Great Xia Commercial Aircraft, he had just finished a meeting in Yanjing when he was notified to urgently head to the Great Xia Academy of Sciences.
This was not standard procedure.
The supervisory unit for Commercial Aircraft was not the Great Xia Academy of Sciences. Could they be looking for him specifically?
After tidying his appearance, Xu Qianren pushed open the door. "Dean Zhang, did you need something?"
"Old Zheng, you're here too?" He was very familiar with both of them, having seen them often when he was working in Yanjing.
"Little Xu, we've called you here this time mainly to deliver a notice concerning Great Xia Commercial Aircraft," Zhang Yuli said directly, without beating around the bush.
"It's about our Great Xia Commercial Aircraft? Please tell me, Dean Zhang."
"Following the highest-level decision, all cooperation with CFM company is now suspended," Zhang Yuli said, word by word. "We will abandon their integrated propulsion system!"
"We are going to develop a 100% domestically produced C919 large aircraft!"
