Chapter 459: Ship-viewing farce
"Your Excellency Yang Hui, are you enjoying your visit?" Durandal greeted him with a smile, and at the same time he admired Yang Hui. He arrived at just the right time for them to be fully prepared. The ship viewing ceremony begins.
"I was quite happy..." Yang Hui curled his lips and glanced at Aslan, who was holding two packs of space chicken skewers, "...it's just that someone's memory is not very good and he is in a bad mood. "
"Um..." Durandal paused, not knowing how to stop talking. According to the routine, Yang Hui should not reply "I'm very happy, thank you for the hospitality", and then compliment each other. A topic?
"...Ahem." Durandal coughed slightly to cover up his embarrassment, and quickly adjusted himself, "As long as your Excellency Yang Hui is satisfied."
"Thank you for the hospitality. I think we can increase trade in crops and livestock products."
"Uh, hahaha..." Durandal glanced at the hard-working Aslan behind Yang Hui. , the aroma of two large bags of kebabs filled the air, and I could naturally guess what they were, "This is easy to say, I will arrange for someone to contact Aub for negotiation, please come here, Your Excellency Yang Hui."
"Please."< br>
I followed Durandal and his group to set off. They did not enter the building or take a car. Instead, they walked in the armory on foot and observed the ZAFT army's new mobile suit units.
"Hush~ As expected of ZAFT." Yang Hui couldn't help but whistle as he looked at the Zaku Warriors and Zaku Phantom Troops.
"Thank you. This is because we adopted your suggestion, abandoned other MS development plans, and strengthened the research and development of the Zaku Warriors' armed backpack. This not only saved more costs, but also retained the unity of the production line and increased output. "
"As expected of the old fox..." Yang Hui sighed in his heart, hearing both meanings in the sentence.
“It’s just that I am more familiar with military equipment than the Speaker. There are three major elements for mass-produced troops: low cost, easy maintenance, and mediocre performance. As long as these three elements are taken into consideration, it can actually be achieved. Get the answer directly."
"Mediocre performance?" Durandal has never entered the military system, so his understanding of military equipment is indeed not as good as Yang Hui's. It can be regarded as an open question. After all, sitting in the highest position, he cannot It is said that you are proficient in everything, but you must know some of them so that you will not be deceived by the people below.
"Yes, mediocre performance allows ordinary pilots to drive more freely. Excellent performance also means that it is difficult to control. Isn't that the case with the [Gates] developed by your army before?"
"...I have learned a lesson."
"You're welcome, Speaker Durandal, these questions can be understood as long as you personally go to the army and chat with the soldiers. They are not very advanced knowledge."
"I see, it seems that I am not competent enough, but... I really envy Your Excellency Yang Hui. Having two good housekeepers and many reliable helpers allows His Excellency Yang Hui to have more energy to worry about the grassroots."
Hearing this, Yang Hui raised his eyebrows. Durandal's words were not a compliment. It seemed that he was praising Yang Hui while belittling his own people. In fact, it was inflicting hatred on Yang Hui and at the same time stimulating the unwillingness of his subordinates. and motivation.
Furthermore, it is also a satire on Yang Hui who does not do business all day long, killing three birds with one stone.
"Feedback from the grassroots is the most important and real. Only by understanding the needs of the grassroots can we formulate policies that are more in line with national development." Yang Huifeng responded calmly.
"I see, you are worthy of Your Excellency Yang Hui."
"Thank you."
The group visited all the way, passing by the queue of Zaku warriors, and walked through the ceremony A welcome queue composed of [Jean] arrived in front of today's protagonist. "This is ZAFT's latest battleship, the Minerva. Although it is not as good as your [Kirin-class] battleship, it is also the crystallization of ZAFT's technology." Durandal showed off, but he also knew that Orb's military Under the leadership of Yang Hui, the strength is too advanced and it is impossible to catch up in a short time.
"Not bad." Yang Hui nodded in approval. According to the information from the Intelligence Department, the construction started four months ago and was carried out together with the next-generation MS armament plan. It was able to complete the construction of the Minerva in four months and also completed the The establishment of an organic Zaku warrior unit also proves PLANT's excellent military research and development capabilities and industrial capabilities.
After all, PLANT and Yang Hui are different. Yang Hui took out the design drawings directly from his mind and modified them before using them. PLANT needed to be developed and designed from scratch.
“Getting your approval is the greatest compliment.” Durandal’s words were meant for PLANT’s scientific researchers and production department. Yang Hui is a “leading figure” in scientific research. .
"It's just...a pity." Yang Hui shook his head. He didn't care whether his words would affect the cooperation between the two parties. The relationship between him and Durandal was not a cooperation between ordinary politicians. Since the relationship is a sincere cooperation, it must be treated sincerely, reflect the problems truly, and bring better results to the cooperation between both parties.
"Is there any problem?" Durandal asked. He knew that Yang Hui did not comment like this just to belittle him. There must be a reason.
"You shouldn't display it publicly just to show off, but hide it and show it again at a critical moment, which can give the enemy a fatal blow." Yang Hui replied.
"...It is true." Durandal agreed with Yang Hui's suggestion, but he also had his own ideas in doing so, "But it is just a battleship, and specially equipped MS troops will not be easily exposed to everyone's sight. "
The exposure of the battleship is certain in Durandal's opinion. Although he has learned from Orb and conducted internal investigations and cleanings more than once, the existence of spies cannot be completely cleaned up.
The construction of a battleship is not a small project, and it is certain that it will be noticed by intelligence personnel. Therefore, it does not matter whether a ship viewing ceremony is held, and if only a part of it is exposed, it can also act as a deterrent to the enemy.
In Durandal's view, complete unknown means not knowing, and naturally has no deterrent effect, while a little knowledge... is the most deterrent existence.
"Okay, you just have to figure it out yourself." Durandal is just a partner, not a subordinate or a companion. He is just making suggestions. Whether the other party accepts it or not is up to him.
I just don’t know if there are any other new machines in the ace unit formed by Durandal, apart from the ones in my memory.
"Then, Your Excellency Yang Hui, please follow me..."
"Boom~"
"What's going on? What happened!?"
< br>
Just when Durandal was about to take Yang Hui and Aslan aboard the Minerva to officially start the ship viewing ceremony and the Minerva's sailing ceremony, the roar of an explosion suddenly broke out not far away, and the flames shot into the sky.
Seeing this scene, Yang Hui raised his hand to block the blowing wind, and the corners of his covered mouth turned up with interest.
"Sure enough, the farce has started, it's interesting."
