Fu Huai'an smiled calmly."If your wife is happy, then your marriage is successful..."
No one could refute Fu Huai'an on what he said.
"Are you happy, Mrs. Fu?"
Someone in the audience shouted the question at Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Couldn't they let her film the program in peace?
"Mrs. Fu..." Fu Huai'an called out to Lin Nuan in a deep voice."Are you happy?"
Lin Nuan couldn't avoid Fu Huai'an's gaze. A thin layer of sweat formed on her palms as the audience squealed.
Lin Nuan was conservative to a fault. She couldn't say sweet nothings to Fu Huai'an like she did when the two of them were alone. She was filming a program now, and there were so many people watching her. It was hard for her not to feel embarrassed.
She calmed herself down and smiled as she asked him back, "Is Mr. Fu happy?"
Fu Huai'an nodded as if that were truly the case. His calm and reserved expression showed that he was serious. The young ladies in the audience squealed.
Lin Nuan couldn't hold back her smile.
This was the happiest filming session of "Talking with Lin Nuan" thus far. Lin Nuan felt that whatever style the program had was gone... Would they consider this the collapse of the program's premise?
"I'm very lucky to be married to my wife!" Fu Huai'an gazed at her calmly and quietly with his dark eyes. His gaze was so gentle that it was heartbreaking."No matter what happens to my wife, she always puts herself in my shoes and puts me first..."
Lin Nuan cleared her throat and tried to get the conversation back on topic. She said in a formal manner, "Mr. Fu, if the following questions pertain to classified information about the Kaide Corporation, you can choose not to answer them!"
Fu Huai'an nodded.
Lin Nuan articulated her words clearly and spoke in a mellow voice as she looked at Fu Huai'an."After you took on the role of chairman of the Kaide Corporation and Lu Jinnan took on the role of president, you announced that the company had won two government contracts. Besides a town improvement project, there's also... according to the news reports, it's a military aircraft turbine research project. This is the first time the government has invited competitive bids for military aircraft turbines and tried to engage overseas corporations for research and development. Netizens online are all very curious about why the government decided to embark on such a project and how the Kaide Corporation was able to win the contract."
Fu Huai'an nodded. His strong features appeared dignified under the studio lights."As everyone knows, various sectors of our country's economy are now rapidly developing. Our military is also growing at a startling rate. Our nuclear submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and various missiles are now some of the best in the world. The turbines for our fighter jets and large cargo planes are the only things that we still import!"
"But it's impossible for other countries to sell us their latest turbines! Doing that would be too risky..." Lin Nuan replied to him quickly.
"Correct!" Fu Huai'an chuckled as he looked at Lin Nuan."The government is giving the turbine research contract to a corporation other than the Gas Turbine Research Institute so that they can speed up the process of developing our own turbines!"
When Fu Huai'an said this, the whole recording studio became quiet.
"There are only so many places offered by the Gas Turbine Research Institute. As a result, there are many capable people bad at interviews who don't make the cut. Even if they have talent and ideas, they don't get the chance to realize their potential. If the government begins to gradually and purposefully outsource projects to trustworthy corporations, there will be more platforms for more talents to put their abilities to good use. This will greatly increase the chances of success and reduce the time needed to achieve it."
Lin Nuan nodded before asking, "Then why was it the Kaide Corporation that managed to win the contract? Apparently, the Jiahe Corporation was competing for it as well. The Jiahe Corporation has been in the airliner manufacturing industry for more than ten years. In terms of experience and other areas, the Jiahe Corporation should surpass the Kaide Corporation."
Lin Nuan's question was blunt.
"Because the leader of the Kaide Corporation's turbine research team is the turbine designer for the US' Deroni's new 2016 fighter jet 'Eagle'—Mr. Ran Chaoqian!"
Lin Nuan was surprised. They even got involved with Li Muyang's ammunition company...
Ran Chaoqian?
The audience began discussing amongst themselves. They had never heard of this person.
But they had all heard of the fighter jet "Eagle." It was a vertical take-off and landing fighter jet, and its power came from its powerful turbines.
The US government already knew that Ran Chaoqian was developing engines with the Kaide Corporation's engine research team!
Fu Huai'an had already planned to find an opportunity to put the spotlight on Ran Chaoqian. That would get more people to know his name, and the US government would have to think about whether they'd cause a storm they couldn't control when they frequently caused him trouble.
Ran Chaoqian had long since wanted to return to his homeland to serve the country, but he wasn't given a chance to do so. He had once brought his ideas and ambitions to the Gas Turbine Research Institute with him, but the door was slammed in his face. He could only realize his potential in the US!
Hence, Ran Chaoqian was now willing to return to China, but he didn't want to join the institute. This was the arrogance and indifference of a talented man!
When Li Muyang was recklessly causing trouble in Haicheng, Fu Huai'an already had his eyes set on Ran Chaoqian. The day before he sent Li Muyang back to the US, Fu Huai'an sent someone to bring Ran Chaoqian back to China secretly. As a result, the contract naturally ended up in the hands of the Kaide Corporation.
"I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to technology, but since our country already has nuclear submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers... and nuclear generators, why don't we have nuclear-powered planes? Why must we rely on turbines?"
Fu Huai'an looked towards Lin Nuan, his fingers holding onto the wine glass as he gently shook the dark red liquid in it...
"Researchers have tried to come up with the nuclear-powered planes you're talking about, but there are several technical issues they're unable to resolve. A nuclear reactor produces large amounts of heat... which needs to be cooled. Thus, nuclear submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and nuclear generators depend on the sea and hydropower! There's no medium in the air that can take away the heat produced by a nuclear reactor. That's why it's impossible to have a nuclear-powered plane!"
The filming took more than an hour to complete. Even the director was listening intently to Fu Huai'an's explanations.
The director's heart ached a little when he thought about having to cut the final program down to 45 minutes.
Miss Xia was very excited as she stood and watched the entire program. Fu Huai'an had helped them lay the groundwork for their upcoming military program!
When the program ended, Miss Xia saw that the audience wanted to hear Fu Huai'an talk about those military issues instead of his love life with Lin Nuan. Her many years of experience told her that the military program Xing Feng put her in charge of would definitely become popular!
The audience was reluctant to leave after the program ended. The director answered a call, and his expression became grim.
After hanging up, the director glanced at Lin Nuan, who was signing autographs for fans and taking photos with them. He also glanced at Fu Huai'an, who was protected by Little Lu and politely refusing to take photos. He then opened the news page on his phone and passed it to Miss Xia."Miss Xia, take a look at this!"
