  ument.write(

  Hues and Sun Xiang were having lunch at the institute, Andy and others were interested in the new aircraft of the institute. Sun Xiang was also preparing to test fly F4U in the afternoon. After a sumptuous lunch, Rich couldn't help but say that he must have a match with Sun Xiang. In these three months, Sun Xiang had taught Rich many fighting techniques, and now Rich is also a qualified fighter. Hues and Eric were watching the two men with great interest, Eric was initially very enthusiastic about fighting, but after being "abused" by Sun Xiang repeatedly, he gave up learning martial arts, saying: I practice flying skills well, and eliminate enemies in the sky, why bother to compare fists and feet with them. The workers of the institute were all watching the excitement on one side, Rich and Sun Xiang were ready to start fighting. "Beep! Beep! ... Beep!" A car horn interrupted the match. Everyone looked around and saw two military Hummers stopped outside the gate of the institute. Hues ran over excitedly as soon as he saw the people coming, Sun Xiang took a look and found that it was his superior: Navy Colonel Ralph. Hues and Ralph hugged each other: "Hey, old buddy! Long time no see, I almost died."

  Ralph laughed and said, "Me too, old buddy!" Both were very happy. Ralph continued, "I've brought you some business. The guy this morning was a military procurement officer from the Right Wing Base. I have no control over his decision-making power, but I do have the procurement rights for the Navy's 1937 reconnaissance aircraft in my hands. As long as you can deliver a prototype by the end of December, the deal can be made. The Navy is expected to order around 120 units, not a big order, but it should make you some money."

  Hewlett said strangely: "How can you have a Navy order? To know that the Navy's orders are generally held by one person."

  Ralph: "This isn't your concern anymore, old buddy. Hurry up and make your prototype, don't let the orders that are already in hand slip away."

  "Hah! Now I'm most confident in planes, you know? With a plane that can fly over 600 km/h and has a range of over 2,000 km, what can't be detected?"

  Ralph's face was full of surprise: "Where is this plane? You've already made it, haven't you? Is it the one that was vetoed by the Navy?"

  A series of questions reflected Ralph's surprise and eagerness. Hughes: "Yes, my friend, it just stopped in my hangar, only need to solve a few small problems, it will become the shining eyes in the American sky."

  Ralph: "I'm looking forward to the test flight of your plane, remember to notify me after the problem is solved, I will come with the Admiral to see your plane. So, buddy, sign this contract and the deal is yours." Hughes: "No problem" After finishing speaking, he picked up the contract and signed it without even looking at it, then handed it over to Ralph.

  Xun Xiang and several others saw that Ralph and Hughes' conversation was about to end, so they immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Good afternoon, Colonel." Ralph immediately replied: "Hello, gentlemen. Steve, I've already reported your aerial combat tactics to the military, but it doesn't seem to have caught their attention. However, our base's flight training program has emphasized your team's tactics, and from now on, all of our training will include team training."

  Sun Xiang: "Thank you for your support, sir! I swear, this squadron is absolutely an air combat ace!"

  Ralph: "Yes, I've seen the aerial combat formation you and Reed have been practicing, it's indeed very effective. Alright, Steve, Howard, I'm off for now, still need to go to HQ to submit this reconnaissance plane contract."

  Huse: "Alright, old buddy, good luck." Sun Xiang and others said: "Farewell, Colonel."

  Ralph nodded and got in the car. It was then that Sun Xiang discovered that the driver was Lieutenant Charles, who showed off his cool white teeth to Sun Xiang, who also smiled back at him. The car drove away immediately. Andy, Rich, and Eric finally returned to normal, "It's too scary, it turns out that Mr. Hughes and Colonel are friends, no wonder Steve can report so late!"

  Erik: "The institute has received the first batch of 120 orders. As long as the quality of the aircraft is good, we don't have to worry about not having follow-up orders. Hehe, at that time our troops will all be equipped with 'Hughes Manufacturing'~~~"

  "Hughes beamed with pride: 'That's it! From now on, I'm going to acquire Globe Airways and reorganize our aircraft institute. Our new company will be called H.S. Airlines, and it'll become the largest airplane manufacturer in the world!'"

  Sun Xiang's face was covered in black lines, and the decision made at noon was announced in the afternoon. Fortunately, it was all among themselves, if others knew about it, they would have raised the stock price with all their might. He looked helplessly at Hughes, who was beaming with pride, boasting about how great the new plane was...

  Ritchie suddenly said to Sun Xiang: "Then we can't come anymore?" Sun Xiang: "......"

  A few people were clamoring to see the new type of airplane, but Riqi was eager to compare notes with Sun Xiang, and the crowd continued to ignore him.

  Richie and the others reluctantly arrived at the hangar, the rolling shutter slowly opened, and the F4U finally revealed its mysterious veil in front of Eric and the others. The military green exterior, the unique design of the inverted gull wing, the exaggerated external hanging hook, the high-power three-blade propeller, all these added up to form its unique appearance characteristics. But it can't be denied that it's really cool.

  Hues gazed at the plane as if it were his lover, his eyes full of adoration. Andy and the others examined the new plane with great interest, but ultimately decided that they had to see how it performed in the air.

  Sun Xiang had been eyeing the new plane for a long time, and this time he wouldn't let Hughes be the pilot again. He put on his flight suit, nimbly climbed into the cockpit, started the engine, and the plane slowly emerged from the hangar. Andy and the others whistled continuously as the plane began to accelerate down the runway.

  At this time, Sun Xiang began to feel the powerful power of the engine. Sun Xiang felt a pressure pushing himself hard onto the seat, which was an experience that had never been experienced on bombers in the base, Boeing P-26 fighter planes, and F2A aircraft.

  The plane took off smoothly, and Sun Xiang experienced the best piston fighter in the world. The sky was its home, and the plane accelerated horizontally in the sky, constantly accelerating. Sun Xiang found the feeling of a jet plane again, which made him extremely excited, and he unconsciously performed large-scale continuous rolls, big turns, small turns, rapid climbs, and rapid dives. The crowd on the ground couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

  Hughes sighed repeatedly, such a person is really playing with airplanes, and a fighter plane in his hands is more agile than in his own hands. Hughes' sighs were naturally unheard by Sun Xiang, who was feeling the strong power of the plane, and Sun Xiang, who had gone crazy, flew the plane over the institute and started doing horizontal rolls. The plane kept rolling to the right, 1, 2, 3...15...23! The crowd on the ground cheered like madmen every time it rolled! Then they saw Sun Xiang start rolling to the left, also 23 times, but that's not all, the most exciting moment appeared.

  At that time, a thought flashed in Sun Xiang's mind: Can this plane do the cobra maneuver? This thought emerged and Sun Xiang couldn't help but want to try it out. Today, everyone on the ground saw a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives!

  Sun Xiang's plane changed to horizontal flight, and the plane suddenly stood upright like a cobra during acceleration, lasting 3.4 seconds before changing back to horizontal flight! Everyone was stunned, and no one had ever made such a flying action before! As soon as Sun Xiang made the move in the sky, he felt something was wrong, as no one had ever tried this move on a piston plane before. When the plane stood up, Sun Xiang felt the airflow around him start to become chaotic. Originally, Sun Xiang wanted to suspend the plane in mid-air and then change back to horizontal flight, but after making the cobra move, the plane continued to move forward, scaring Sun Xiang into immediately leveling the plane. Sun Xiang sat in the cockpit with a cold sweat, his face filled with fear, still unsure if the plane's structure could withstand such high-intensity flying actions. If the plane couldn't withstand the pressure and suddenly disintegrated in mid-air...

  Sun Xiang didn't dare to think about it anymore, and simply made a few quick turns in the sky before landing. The apron was packed with people waiting for the plane to land, and more than 100 personnel from the institute came out to welcome this boss and flight stunt master. As soon as Sun Xiang opened the cockpit, he heard thunderous applause. "Steve! Steve! Steve!..."

  Andy, Rich and several test pilots from the institute looked at Sun Xiang with infinite admiration. Several engineers had even more exaggerated expressions, looking at Sun Xiang's eyes as if they wanted to devour him immediately. Those engineers all hoped that their research inventions were the best products in the world, and aircraft engineers were no exception, and even more so.

  Sun Xiang was basking in their cheers, Hughes squeezed to the front and hugged him, shouting something loudly, but suddenly he couldn't hear anything. He saw everyone's mouths moving non-stop, he tried to shout back at them, then everything went black.

  Hughes was the first to notice Sun Xiang's abnormality, he anxiously spoke to Sun Xiang, but it seemed like he hadn't heard a thing. Then Sun Xiang fainted. Hughes immediately called for a doctor.

  "Oh, sir, what's wrong with Steve? He was fine just now, how did he suddenly faint?" Hughes asked anxiously.

  "Yes! Sir, Steve is as strong as an ox. He once beat up four men by himself. How could he have fainted?"

  "Don't worry, gentlemen, he's just too tired. A good sleep will do him good. Now, all of you please don't disturb him, he just needs a quiet rest and he'll be fine." The doctor then pushed Hughes and the others out of the room.

  The room is very quiet. "Drip! Drip... The host's spiritual wave fluctuation is normal, the second transformation is underway, physical strength increased by 40%, cellular vitality enhanced (rapid hemostasis), transformation complete."

  Xun Xiang woke up, and it turned out that Fang's brain was the reason. After learning that he had been remade for the second time, Sun Xiang's mood was naturally very good. Sherry also learned about this and rushed over to see him, not letting him get out of bed. Now Sun Xiang is enjoying Sherry's care, eating the lunch prepared by Hughes himself, and looking at the sun outside the window in the afternoon. His life is so comfortable that it makes Eric and others want to pretend to be ill to enjoy this kind of royal treatment.

  Huse rushed over to see him: "Hey buddy! What a pity, you missed the party, how's your body?" Seeing Sun Xiang's happy face constantly winking at himself, Huse was annoyed and threw down a sentence "forgetting friendship for beauty" and left.

  "Xue Li said with a sad face, 'Sun, don't make me worry, okay? You know, now my heart is all about you. If something happens to you, I don't know how I can go on living.' Xue Li's eyes were red, and Sun Xiang felt a pang of heartache."

  "Xuě lì! Believe me, I will definitely make you the happiest person, I swear! Although I'm just a pilot, I'll use my all to love you, tolerate you, and protect you." Sun Xiang said very solemnly. Xuělì is now smiling very sweetly, yes, so sweet that it has reached her own heart. For an entire afternoon, Sun Xiang was stuck in the room with Xuělì, chatting and laughing, then stealing a small kiss. Even if you were to offer him a god, Sun Xiang wouldn't be interested, for what angel in heaven is as beautiful as my Xuělì?!

  The next day, Sun Xiang and Sherry returned to the base on time. Inside the base, there was a buzz about something being passed around...
