The time spans 1998 and enters 1999.

The early spring in Donghai City is still a bit cold, but there is no feeling of the cold at Dongjiang Shipyard.

There seems to be a hot hot fire in everyone's heart.

The construction of the third Type 054 missile frigate on the No. 2 ship platform is coming to an end. It seems that the outfit has been fully completed, and the painting may be carried out soon.

The specific No. 2 ship platform is not far from the Dongjiang Shipyard.

He used to be an inclined construction ship platform. After renovation, he is now building ship platform at a standard level, ready to be used to build the first Type 054a missile frigate.

The segmented welding of this ship began a few months ago. Some segmented parts have been manufactured and the conditions for building the ship platform are basically ripe.

The No. 1 ship platform was relatively deserted before, but it seemed a little different from yesterday and gradually became lively.

Many managers, construction workers and technicians began to appear here, and related craft equipment has also been shipped.

The construction of the first Type 054a missile frigate is about to begin, and a series of preparations are now underway.

They have experience in successfully building the Type 054 missile frigate. Although the 054a has made some improvements and improvements, it is not much different for construction.

Whether it is the workers or technicians, the preparations are done in an orderly manner.

East China Sea Ship Design Center.

In the office, Yang Fan was answering the call from Jinfu from the capital.

A few months ago, last year, Yang Fan visited Pan Jinfu, and at that time he received important news that senior military officials were discussing whether to design and develop a new generation of light missile frigate.

Yang Fan really hopes that the East China Sea Ship Design Center can get this glorious design task, and also entrusted Pan Jinfu to pay attention to the dynamics of this matter for him.

During the phone call, Pan Jinfu officially mentioned this matter, "Xiao Yang, things have made certain progress. According to what I have learned, the military should start the design and demonstration of the new generation of light missile frigates this year."

First argue, then design, research and development, and finally build.

After receiving such a call, Yang Fan felt a little happy and immediately asked: "Leader, have the specific time been set?"

Pan Jinfu said: "There is no specific time yet. As soon as possible, design demonstration will be launched in the first half of this year, at the latest in the second half of this year."

After hearing what Pan Jinfu said, Fanfan knew it roughly.

He said happily: "Great, this is really exciting news. Our East China Sea Ship Design Center has been looking forward to this day for a long time."

Pan Jinfu laughed: "Xiao Yang, it seems that you have been doing some preparations before the design."

Yang Fan did not hide it and said truthfully: "The preparations before the design are not a question, but I have been thinking about the design of the new generation of light missile frigates, and I have also had a lot of ideas. I even personally drew a series of color pictures to draw the new generation of light missile frigates in my mind."

"oh."

Hearing that Yangfan had some ideas and drew color pictures, Pan Jinfu obviously showed great interest and said loudly: "Xiao Yang tells me, what does the new generation of light missile frigate look like in your conception?"

Facing the inquiry, Yang Fan briefly introduced the 056 light missile frigate in history based on the memories in his mind.

Among the world's light missile frigate family, the 056 is definitely very high-level, of course, much more advanced than the current 053 model and far ahead.

After listening to Yang Fan's introduction, Pan Jinfu said decisively: "Your design concepts are so good. I will definitely feed them back to the upper-level leaders. Send me some of the color pictures you have drawn, so I can give them to relevant military leaders."

Of course this is OK.

Yang Fan is most happy to see that he can send these drawn color pictures to the military leaders.

So he agreed: "I have drawn more than a dozen such color pictures, and I'll send them all to you."

After a few months, Yang Yang often thought about the Type 056 missile frigate. When he had time, he would spread out white paper and pick up a pen to draw its color renderings.

Yang Fan has a good painting skills and is a typical painter who has been delayed by his career in ships. The pictures he painted are very beautiful and vivid.

The 056 light missile frigate is vividly displayed on paper, very intuitive.

During the phone call, Yang Fan and Pan Jinfu chatted for at least ten minutes. After hanging up the phone, they opened the drawer of their desk, took out all the drawn drawings, and prepared to send them all out today.

As soon as the drawings were sorted out, the phone on the desk rang again. This was the phone call from Sun Baoguo from Dongjiang Shipyard.

"Mr. Yang, you have been very busy lately. I haven't come to our Dongjiang Shipyard for a while."

Yang Fan immediately knew what was going on and said happily: "Is the first Type 054a missile frigate about to start construction of the ship platform?"

Sun Baoguo Highway: "You didn't come to our shipyard, but you really know the situation here. Yes, the first 054a ship is about to start construction. I called this to invite you to come and have a look tomorrow."

The first ship of 054a started to be built, which is definitely a big deal. No matter how busy Yang Fan is, he will definitely take time to take a look.

Not only Yang Fan himself, many people from the Donghai Ship Design Center will go to the Dongjiang Shipyard and see with their own eyes that the first 054a ship has begun construction.

"No problem, we will come here early tomorrow."

Yang Fan agreed very readily.

Sun Bao Guoluo: "It's great, then I'll congratulate you next to the construction platform. In addition, Commander Luo will also come over, his plane tonight."

Yang Fan said: "Even Lao Luo has come here in person, so we must come even more. We must see the first one hanging onto the construction ship platform in sections."

The two chatted on the phone for a few minutes. In addition to talking about the construction of the first 054a ship, Sun Baoguo also reported on the construction of the third 054 missile frigate.

Its outfit has been fully completed and the painting will begin soon. There is no problem with the launch of the water last year.

This is the third type 054 missile frigate, and the fourth is being built at the Xiangjiang Shipyard and has now entered the outfit stage. If it goes well, it is expected to be launched in the second half of this year.

In this way, a total of four Type 054 missile frigates will be fully constructed.

After these four Type 054 missile frigates were built and launched, there is no construction plan for the Type 054 missile frigates. In the future, all of them will be Type 054a missile frigates.

The next day.

Early in the morning, the office building of the Donghai Ship Design Center became lively. Several cars were parked neatly, and many people walked out of the office building, talking and laughing.

They will all get on the bus here and will take a bus to Dongjiang Shipyard to witness the construction of the first 054a ship.

A few minutes later, Yang Fan walked in front with big strides, followed by several middle and senior executives of the East China Sea Ship Design Center, including Tang Jianming and Shen Changhai.

Everyone got on the bus one after another.

A small convoy of several cars left the Donghai Ship Design Center and headed to the Dongjiang Shipyard.

In about forty minutes, the convoy drove into the factory area of ​​Dongjiang Shipyard, and walked smoothly all the way and came directly next to the No. 1 construction ship platform.

Everyone got off the car one after another, not only saw the ready-made construction ship platform, but also saw the basically completed Type 054 missile frigate on the No. 2 platform not far away.

Yang Fan also got out of the car and walked over with a large group of people, while Sun Baoguo came over enthusiastically.

He shook hands with Yang Fan tightly, and after some polite and greetings, Luo Jianguo also came over.

The two of them shook hands happily and chatted happily.

At the invitation of Sun Baoguo, Yang Fan and Luo Jianguo went to No. 1 to build the front desk.

Everyone stood next to the boat platform and saw that the preparations were fully ready for construction on the huge horizontal boat platform.

Not far away, several sections have arrived in the designated area and will be hoisted soon.

Many people looked at the segments, and some people recognized the middle part of the bottom of the ship that was about to be hoisted at a glance. It was the first segment of the construction of the ship platform and the benchmark segment of the entire construction of the ship platform.

At this time, the person in charge of the construction of the ship stepped over quickly and reported to Sun Baoguo loudly.
