125: The Little Bee UAV was successfully developed
Seeing that Liu Xiaolin agreed without any hesitation, Shi Hangtian was also very happy, so he proposed a division plan based on the established goals.
"The current situation is like this: the blueprints, workshops, and equipment are from your side, and I provided the personnel. Therefore, it's easy to distinguish in the non-cooperation terms. Also, the Great Bear Country's orders will continue to be produced by you, so as not to arouse suspicion from the outside world. However, we will no longer trouble you with the military's orders, because we need to make a series of military modifications based on the technical parameters of Xiaohang Drones," Shi Hangtian immediately added.
"No problem, we will accelerate the production of Xiaohang Drones, complete the Great Bear Country's orders as soon as possible, and then stop producing Xiaohang Drones." Liu Xiaolin fully supported Dragon Country's military industry development, so of course, he had no objections.
"Since you've agreed, let's sign the various documents," Shi Hangtian said.
"Okay, you draft the documents, and I'll just sign them," Liu Xiaolin trusted Shi Hangtian very much.
"Alright, since you've agreed, I'll go draft the documents. Afterwards, let's hold a high-level meeting to announce this decision," Shi Hangtian said.
"Okay, we'll announce this decision this afternoon." Liu Xiaolin felt there was no need to procrastinate; resolving this issue early and focusing on developing Xiao Mifeng Drone was the most important thing.
After Shi Hangtian drafted the division documents and both of them signed them, the high-level meeting was held in the conference room.
This time, Liu Xiaolin sat alone in the main seat, Shi Hangtian sat at the end, and Shen Zhiyong, who never participated in the drone project, also attended the meeting today.
The few high-level executives keenly felt that the seating arrangement today was very strange, but no one said anything.
"Today's meeting is to announce a decision. First, Chunfeng Changan Group has issued a directive to revoke the Aerospace Branch Company, so the situation of cooperation between the two companies will no longer exist," Liu Xiaolin announced.
At this, the attendees were stunned. The branch company was revoked? Doesn't that mean they were unemployed?
Most of the attendees were from the Aerospace Branch Company. If the branch company was revoked, it would mean they were unemployed, which was a very correct line of thinking.
"Everyone, don't worry. I have already communicated with General Manager Shi. All personnel from the Aerospace Branch Company will be taken over by New Hope Aerospace Technology Company. Those who are willing to stay can stay and do their original jobs. Salaries and benefits will not change, and the distribution of year-end bonuses will only be more, not less," he continued.
"Ah? Our company has changed its name? New Hope Aerospace Technology Company? The name sounds quite nice," Zhang Weichen said with a smile. He was definitely willing to stay; working here was too challenging, and the treatment in all aspects was very good, so why not stay?
"Yes, our current company has merged with the original packaging company and is called New Hope Aerospace Technology Company," Liu Xiaolin continued, "General Manager Shi has decided to leave because he was invited by the military to establish a military drone enterprise. Therefore, the only condition for his departure is to take the design blueprints of Xiaohang Drones, and I agreed. As long as it's for the good of the country, I will agree no matter what."
"Yes, the military will improve based on the design blueprints of Xiaohang Drones and design a true military drone," Shi Hangtian said, "So, we will take this design blueprint with us, and we will also take the military's orders. The Great Bear Country's orders will remain here for you to complete production. Taking away the military's orders may cause losses to the company, but General Manager Liu didn't mind. His fervent patriotism made him not care about that much."
"That's right. After we finish producing the Great Bear Country's orders, we will no longer produce Xiaohang Drones, and its technical patent will be completely handed over to the military. And from today onwards, we will refuse any orders for Xiaohang Drones," Liu Xiaolin said solemnly, "In this situation, we must vigorously promote Little Bee civilian drones, otherwise our sales will be a problem."
Rong Yiwang had originally thought that he didn't need to rush to find new orders, but now, unexpectedly, the orders were suddenly reduced by half. He felt very disappointed: "The great situation we had is gone, and we have to start competing in the market again. This is a challenge, but it can also be considered an opportunity."
"Minister Rong is absolutely right. We are now facing a dual situation of challenges and opportunities. We must meet the challenges and seize the opportunities," Liu Xiaolin encouraged everyone's morale.
"Also, after General Manager Shi's departure, Shen Zhiyong will become our company's Deputy General Manager," Liu Xiaolin said, "Because he is a local of Huaao City and is very good at dealing with various departments, which is something we, the R&D personnel, cannot do. Moreover, when our R&D personnel get busy, they can't take care of anything else, so he needs to handle all aspects of logistical support."
"Factory Director Shen is very meticulous in his work; his participation in management is really good."
"What Factory Director Shen? It's Deputy General Manager Shen."
"Right, right, right, you see, I'm used to saying it, and I can't change it."
"You still have to change it."
A very significant matter was completed in such a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere.
Shi Hangtian was very satisfied, Liu Xiaolin was also very happy, everyone was very happy.
From then on, Shi Hangtian left New Hope with the technical blueprints of Xiaohang Drones and participated in the military's R&D work.
New Hope then began to fully develop civilian drones that aligned with the market.
Two days later, Zhang Weichen and the R&D Department personnel began test-flying the Xiao Mifeng Drone on the company's lawn!
The volume of the Xiao Mifeng Drone is only half the volume of Xiaohang Drones! The fuselage color is silver-white, reflecting silver light in the sun, which is very beautiful.
The Xiao Mifeng Drone is not only exquisitely shaped, but its technical parameters are also very good. It has a high-end camera with five times the pixel count of a digital camera, and it has both front and rear cameras, with functions for automatic capture and aerial target locking and tracking.
Zhang Weichen pressed the remote control button, and the Xiao Mifeng Drone took off with a whoosh. Its speed was certainly not as fast as Xiaohang Drones, only one hundred kilometers per hour, but it was sufficient. It had a flight altitude of eight hundred meters and an endurance of sixty hours, and the percentage transmission rate remained unchanged. However, these technical parameters were already top-tier data for civilian drones.
"Zhang Weichen, lock onto a point on the ground for shooting and observe if the image received on the remote control screen can continuously lock onto this target."
