Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Just as Makarov was leading a group of people to work, the phone rang.

"Director, the guests have arrived at the gate!"

This was a call from the office director who was sent by Makarov to greet the guests at the gate.

After receiving the call, Makarov immediately put down his work, called several other executives, and went downstairs to prepare for the arrival of the big customer.

Not two minutes after they arrived downstairs, they saw a long motorcade coming from a distance.

There are a dozen of all white Land Cruisers!

Before the convoy could stop, Makarov had a smile on his face and hurried forward to greet them.

It's early January, the coldest time of the year.

Although the Black Sea Shipyard is close to the sea and the temperature is not as cold as other places in Russia and Uzbekistan, it still reaches minus ten degrees.

Moreover, there was heavy snow in the sky. Just after waiting downstairs for two or three minutes, a layer of white snow had already fallen on the heads and shoulders of Makarov and others.

The motorcade stopped, and there was a sound of "bang bang bang" the car door closing.

Among the people who came down, Makarov only knew Petrov, but his eyes were fixed on the young man next to Petrov.

It is obvious that Petrov is one step behind the young man, and the stars are shining over the moon. If Makarov still can't figure out who is the boss, then his job as factory director for so many years has been in vain. !

Sure enough, Petrov introduced Makarov to the approaching Makarov: "Director Makarov, this is the boss of our Wagner Company, Mr. Mikhail! Boss, this is Director Makarov." Yes, he has been the director of the Black Sea Shipyard for nearly twenty years, and his prestige in the factory is very high!"

Wang Ye looked at Makarov. He was in his early sixties, with a medium build and a slight fatness. His hair was graying. He also wore a pair of glasses. He had a rosy complexion and looked very kind.

The two people's right hands were tightly clasped together, and Makarov also looked at the young man named Mikhail.

The Black Sea Shipyard is just a remote factory with very little information. In addition, the condition of the factory is not very good. The old factory director only worries about where to get some money to support the workers in the factory. Naturally, he will not care about Russia. political news.

Therefore, he did not know about Mikhail, a Duma member who has been in the limelight recently.

But there are some things that Makarov still knows. For example, the Wagner Security Company definitely has a military background!

Because when Petrov came over for the first time to discuss the purchase of the 10,000-ton cruiser Ulan, a big military boss from Ukraine greeted Makarov and said that this company had a background in the Russian military. , relatively reliable, you can sell warships to them with confidence.

This is normal, after all, this is a cruiser!

If he didn't know the buyer's background, Makarov wouldn't dare to sell randomly. If he sold to someone he shouldn't have sold to, he would have to take the blame in the future...

Therefore, according to the information Makarov has, his impression of Mikhail is that he has a strong background, has a deep relationship with the Russian military, has extraordinary financial resources, and is generous!

Of course, seeing Mikhail so young, Makarov naturally regarded him as the second generation of a certain big shot family...

But no matter what Mikhail's background is, Makarov only knows one thing, that is, as long as he is willing to spend money to buy his own ship, he is a good person!

…………

After some pleasantries, Makarov warmly greeted Wang Ye and his entourage into the office building.

Under his leadership, Wang Ye took a brief look around the headquarters building of the Black Sea Shipyard. Most of the important departments in the factory were concentrated in this building.

The highlight of the visit is naturally the showroom.

In this large room, corresponding models of various large warships built by the Black Sea Shipyard are displayed here.

The most conspicuous positions are naturally those aircraft carriers built by the Black Sea Shipyard!

Makarov introduced with a proud tone:

“A major innovation in our shipyard is to streamline the aircraft carrier construction project based on the large-scale section construction method.

Next to the renovated hull, a separate platform with an area of ​​more than 18,000 square meters and a carrying capacity equivalent to that of the slipway was built.

When the first aircraft carrier is being built on the slipway, the assembly of the second aircraft carrier's general sections will be carried out in parallel on this platform. When the previous aircraft carrier completes the final assembly and is launched into the water for outfitting, it will be used to assemble several general sections of the next aircraft carrier. It has been assembled on the platform and sent to the newly vacated slipway for lifting.

This method greatly improved the mass production efficiency of aircraft carriers. In the 1970s, this new method was first applied in the construction of the last two ships of the Kiev-class aircraft carrier.

In 1978, the final assembly of the Novorossiysk was completed and launched. At the same time, the assembly of the Baku section was also completed and was hoisted by a crane on the slipway vacated by the Novorossiysk. By 1982, the Novorossiysk was completed. After the sea trials, the Baku was completed and launched. On average, each ship took two and a half years from the start of construction to the launch.

At its peak, we could build an aircraft carrier every three years!

…”

In fact, without his introduction, Wang Ye also knew that the Black Sea Shipyard had once been glorious.

But it is a pity that it has declined now because of poverty...

Wang Ye has no idea about aircraft carriers yet. In fact, if he really wants to do it, he can really get it!

But the question is, what is it used for after getting it?

Needless to say, the maintenance cost of aircraft carriers is very high. Generally, smaller countries cannot afford it!

And just a naked aircraft carrier is completely useless. You need to equip it with fighter jets, which is another huge expense!

Besides, technicians who can control aircraft carriers and pilots who can fly carrier-based aircraft are top talents in any country. Even in Russia, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find suitable people.

Therefore, building a 10,000-ton cruiser first, and then adding some frigates, destroyers, etc. to form a small fleet is the best solution that Wang Ye can afford at the moment.

After the visit, everyone came to the conference room and sat down.

Makarov first gave a welcome speech, and then asked eagerly: "Mr. Mikhail, do you have any procurement goals for coming here this time? As long as they are existing ships in our factory or ships we can build , you can bring it up! Of course, with the strength of our shipyard, we can build everything from frigates and transport ships to aircraft carriers and cruisers!"

He is bragging...

Maybe the shipyard had this capability before, but now, if nothing else, it is impossible to build an aircraft carrier.

The factory has also lost too many technicians and skilled workers...
