Chapter 1436 Visiting Qingyun Island

The airport on Qingyun Island is not open to the public, and there are occasionally one or two planes transporting personnel or supplies that take off and land here. 【Thinking Novel Network】

However, the facilities at the airport on the island are very advanced, and even three types of blind landings are supported here, that is, in theory, the plane can land directly in the autopilot mode without manual operation.

The airports that support the three types of blind landings are generally more advanced airports, and only a few hub airports in China have such conditions. Of course, because the situation in the take-off and landing stage is relatively complicated, most pilots will choose to manually operate the landing. Even if the airport supports three types of blind landings, few people will use this function.

In fact, the Civil Aviation Administration of China has relevant regulations. The landing must be manually operated by the pilot. This is also to avoid problems with automatic piloting and blind landing guidance during the landing stage or when other unexpected situations occur, the pilot is too late to deal with it. After all, the altitude and speed of the aircraft are relatively low during the landing stage. If there is an accident, there is very little room for emergency treatment.

Captain Liu An also chose to leave the autopilot at the decision altitude and landed manually.

Today's weather is very good, the ground is calm, and the visibility is very high. For the experienced Captain Liu An, such a landing is a piece of cake.

The plane landed very smoothly on the runway of Qingyun Island Airport. Xia Ruofei and Liu Kuan, who were sitting in the cabin, only felt the plane shake slightly. There was almost no bump during the entire landing process, and the plane was already taxiing on the runway at high speed. .

Under the action of reverse thrust and automatic braking, the speed of the aircraft dropped rapidly, and it quickly left the runway from the nearest exit.

There is only one plane in the whole airport, Taoyuan, and the airport also sent a guide car to lead the way, bringing Taoyuan to the stand.

In fact, Xia Ruofei felt that there was no need for this at all, because the airport itself was very small, and there were no intricate taxiways. In addition, there were no other planes, and the taxiing process after landing couldn't be simpler.

After the plane stopped and closed the car, the flight attendant swiftly opened the hatch and lowered the gangway, then got off the plane and stood beside the gangway; Captain Liu An also came out of the cockpit and went down to wait beside the plane.

Xia Ruofei and Liu Kuan got up and walked to the cabin door. With Liu Kuan's best efforts, Xia Ruofei took the lead out of the cabin door.

He was a little surprised to see that there was actually a red carpet on the apron, extending from the gangway. At the end of the red carpet, there were three cars parked, two black Mercedes-Benz sedans and one Xia Ruofei. A very familiar Toyota Alpha commercial vehicle, several big men in black suits and sunglasses stood beside the car and waited.

Beside the gangway, in addition to Captain Liu An and the flight attendant who got off the plane in advance, there were also five or six men in suits and leather shoes. Except for a brown-skinned middle-aged man who looked like a local, several others All are Chinese faces.

The one in the lead is forty-five or six years old, with a slightly fat body. It may be because he has worked here for a long time, and his complexion is also a little dark. In addition, a strand of hair from the "Local Support Center" flutters in the sea breeze. Yes, it looks kind of funny.

The middle-aged bald man saw Xia Ruofei who was the first to get off the plane. He was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted. He quickly took two steps forward, stretched out his hands enthusiastically and said, "Hello! Welcome to Qingyun Island! I am Liu Qingfeng, the general manager of the Qingyun Island project."

"Hello, Mr. Liu." Xia Ruofei and Liu Qingfeng shook hands gently and said lightly.

Liu Kuan, who got off the plane behind Xia Ruofei, said, "Qingfeng, this is Chairman Xia Ruofei of Taoyuan Company. You can just call him Mr. Xia."

"Yes, Uncle Kuan!" Liu Qingfeng said respectfully, and then said hello to Xia Ruofei again, "Mr. Xia, welcome! Welcome!"

Although he only received a simple notification from the family in advance, Liu Qingfeng had already seen that the protagonist this time was obviously not the highly respected Liu Kuan, but the young man in his twenties.

Although in Liu Qingfeng's view, the identity of the chairman of Taoyuan Company is completely different from that of a wealthy family like the Liu family, but who can be treated with such courtesy by Liu Kuan, how could he, a small project leader, dare to neglect him!

Several people behind Liu Qingfeng also came forward, Xia Ruofei shook hands with them one by one, and Liu Qingfeng was responsible for the introduction.

These people are all responsible for a certain aspect of the huge project of Qingyun Island. Unexpectedly, all of them are Chinese, and they should all be the elites of the Liu family.

There is also a middle-aged brown man named Banirati. He is a native of Bonautu. He joined the construction project of Qingyun Island eight years ago, and is mainly responsible for coordinating various relationships. Of course, as Qingyun Island's own defenses are getting stronger and stronger, some local forces in Bonautu no longer dare to covet Qingyun Island, and there are fewer and fewer things that need to be coordinated. The focus of work is mainly on material procurement and worker recruitment.

After all, this place is isolated overseas. If all the required materials are shipped from China, the cost will be much higher. Therefore, if conditions permit, those who can purchase nearby will purchase nearby, including some building materials, as long as the technical standards meet the requirements. , are also purchased locally.

In addition to some core projects that need to be kept secret, the construction of such a large island requires a lot of workers. The salaries of local indigenous people are much lower than those of workers from China, so this project also recruits a large number of local workers.

Of course, these workers are restricted to areas of activity, and some of them involve the core areas of island defense, and they are prohibited from approaching.

Benirati now focuses heavily on managing these workers.

Speaking of which, he is also one of the few powerful figures in the Qingyun Island construction project.

After the simple welcome ceremony, Liu Qingfeng enthusiastically led the way and asked Xia Ruofei and Liu Kuan to get on the car at the parking lot not far away.

The group walked to the car on the red carpet. Naturally, Xia Ruofei and Liu Kuan took the Toyota Alphard. Liu Qingfeng also took the co-pilot position of the car, while the other senior executives took the rest. of two Mercedes-Benz sedans.

"Uncle Liu, please also arrange for my crew. They have just had a long flight and need a rest." Xia Ruofei said.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xia, I have already ordered it, and they will arrange it." Liu Kuan said.

"In addition, the plane needs to replenish fuel. There should be some reserves at Qingyun Island Airport, right?" Xia Ruofei said, "How much should it cost, I'll settle it later."

Liu Kuan said quickly: "You are our honored guest. It is normal for the plane to refill a little jet fuel here. How can we make you pay? Besides, didn't I also take the plane? Then do I still give it to you? What about the airfare?"

Even if the Taoyuan ship is full of gas, it doesn't have much money. When Xia Ruofei sees Liu Kuan saying this, he no longer refuses. He smiled and said, "Thank you then."

"You are too kind!"

At this time, Liu Qingfeng turned his head and asked respectfully, "Mr. Xia, Uncle Kuan, what to do next? Please give instructions from the two of you."

Liu Kuan said lightly: "Mr. Xia is here for inspection this time. First, I will take Mr. Xia to visit the island, and we have to go to all places."

Liu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then... over there on Qingyun Mountain..."

"Am I not clear enough? You have to go to all places!" Liu Kuan said coldly, "Remember, for Mr. Xia, there are no secrets on Qingyun Island!"

Liu Qingfeng was slightly stunned, and quickly said, "Understood!"

Liu Kuan turned his head and asked, "Mr. Xia, do you think this arrangement is okay?"

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "Very good, let's arrange it like this! In addition... I also want to investigate as comprehensively as possible, it is best to go around in the air... I wonder if there are helicopters on the island?"

"Yes! Yes!" Liu Qingfeng said quickly, "The helipad of the helicopter is at the project department building, and the pilot is on standby. You can take off at any time if you need a ride."

Xia Ruofei said: "Then after the visit! If it is convenient to arrange!"

"Convenient! Convenient!" Liu Qingfeng said quickly.

The airport on Qingyun Island is very small. The car quickly and slowly drove off the apron and continued to drive along the only asphalt road. Liu Qingfeng was in charge of explaining.

Qingyun Island is about three kilometers long from east to west, and two kilometers wide from north to south. There is a hill in the middle of the island, which has now been named Qingyun Mountain.

In addition, it is rare that the island has fresh water resources.

Xia Ruofei found that after years of construction, Qingyun Island has begun to take shape. There is a natural deep-water port in the north, and now a small wharf has been built; the airport in the east has also been put into use, and the three-kilometer-long runway has a large Part of it is land reclamation, extending all the way into the sea.

A building and several villas of different sizes were also built on the island, forming a manor.

The building is now in use by the project department, and after the entire project is completed, it will also be turned into an apartment-style residential building.

In addition, the interior of the hill in the middle of the island was almost hollowed out, creating an impregnable sanctuary.

When the car drove into this fortification, Xia Ruofei saw that the heavy alloy gate was one or two meters thick. The inside of the whole mountain was a fortress made of reinforced concrete, and a large amount of materials were also stored. In the event of danger, Liu The family can quickly hide in the shelter, and after locking the alloy door, they can be completely isolated from the outside world, and the stored materials are enough to support hundreds of people living at the same time for two years.

After visiting all of them, Xia Ruofei knew where the Liu family's money was spent. The funds spent on this shelter alone probably accounted for 70-80% of the entire project. This is still visible. A lot of money was spent, It can't be seen from the outside at all.

Of course, these things are not what Xia Ruofei cares about. Immediately after the visit, he proposed that he would like to take a helicopter and take a good look at the overall situation over the island.

This request was also very reasonable in Liu Kuan's view. He immediately ordered Liu Qingfeng to prepare a helicopter, and proposed that he would also accompany Xia Ruofei to go up.

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, you are not young anymore, the noise on the helicopter is so loud, and there are strong winds and poor stability, so don't go up and toss, and I will fly around the island twice. Come down and see!"

Liu Kuan thought for a while and felt that what Xia Ruofei said was reasonable, so he nodded and said, "Mr. Xia, then I'll be lazy, I'll wait for you below, Qingfeng has prepared a banquet, you can come back as soon as you're optimistic. !"

"Yes!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

Soon, Liu Qingfeng had the helicopter ready, and the pilot was also from China.

This is not a small sightseeing helicopter, but a super jaguar. I want to come to this aircraft with a cost of hundreds of millions of Chinese dollars, and I usually undertake the task of transporting personnel and materials.

Xia Ruofei boarded the plane. For the convenience of observation, he sat beside the helicopter pilot and in the co-pilot's position, put on his headphones swiftly, and waved to Liu Kuan, Liu Qingfeng and others in the distance.

The super jaguar slowly rose, then the nose sank slightly and flew towards the east.
