In October 1964, five and a half years after its first flight, Sanmai Company delivered the first Antai-100 aircraft to Royal New World Airways, and it was used by Royal New World Airways from Beijing to West Montenegro. route.
Antai-100 jet aircraft, in economical business cabin mode, can carry 221 passengers, has a cruising speed of 970 kilometers per hour and a range of 7,100 kilometers.
In fact, the Antai-100 was originally planned to be named Voyager-100, but because it was mainly targeted at the civil aviation market, unlike fighter aircraft, it ended up using a name that was quite satisfactory and gave people a sense of stability and safety.
Navigator, used on civilian flights, sounds somewhat unlucky.
In the more than six years of peace, which was also a time of rapid technological advancement, all the confederations in the empire have achieved considerable development.
The most eye-catching thing is the Tianhan Kingdom. Most areas have a weak foundation. Under the free market model of self-owned technology, the development speed is extremely fast. The rural areas in many areas are simply two worlds away from what they were ten years ago. .
Television sets have gradually entered rural households in the northern region.
However, the use of a large number of "royal" prefixes has also caused some disputes.
For example, some companies with royal investment background, Royal New World Airlines is one of them, and the military and police system, which generally use the titles of Royal Police, Royal Air Force, Royal Army, and Royal Navy.
The Attorney General's Office became the Crown Prosecution Service.
And so on.
However, this is all used in the Zhongzhou context, using the highest level of "emperor", but when translated into Western, it actually still means "king".
As a result, this became a complete mystery and eventually became a matter of discussion among linguists.
However, it must be said that after the military and police system was renamed, morale was further boosted, and the sense of honor and cohesion was strengthened.
The five principal principalities system of the kingdom is also tending to disappear. After Han Renwang, the principality of Beining Army, retired, the principality disintegrated and turned into two autonomous territories.
In the Longbei Autonomous Principality, after large-scale public demonstrations, Ren Zhonglin had to take the initiative to resign. The Autonomous Principality was disintegrated and joined the kingdom in the form of three autonomous territories.
The Longbei Democratic Principality has always been relatively open and has been able to keep up with the pace of the kingdom's development.
The Northern Xinjiang Autonomous Principality is located in the northernmost remote area. The people are conservative and traditional, and it is difficult for the wind of the new era to blow in.
In this way, the kingdom now consists of thirty-three autonomous dominions, two major regions, Xinjing and Shengjing, seven directly administered border defense areas, as well as the Longbei Principality and the Northern Xinjiang Principality, plus the Anshan Autonomous City-state, such administrative divisions.
The average population of the autonomous territories is around 10 million. The Longbei Principality and the Northern Xinjiang Principality both have a population of more than 20 million, and the Anshan Autonomous City-state has a population of more than 5 million.
The Xinjing Region has a population of more than 20 million, and the Shengjing Region has a population of more than 10 million.
The total population of the kingdom exceeds 400 million.

New Kyoto Palace.
Sitting in the study, Lu Ming looked at the calendar card. In the blink of an eye, it has been 64 years. Faintly, in terms of humanities, lifestyle, etc., the world has indeed entered the 1960s in the previous life.
My face, body, etc., have not actually changed at all. Of course, with a little control, my beard has become unshaven, and due to the vicissitudes of time, I look like a man in his thirties.
The recent focus is on the Western Regions.
Sonia originally promised to completely withdraw military forces deployed in the Western Region within three years. It has been six years since they issued the statement.
It has indeed gradually withdrawn its military power and is helping locals establish a democratically elected government.
The Western Region is divided into four parts, the Nile Autonomous Region (central), Baoyue Autonomous Region (southern), Hunhuo Autonomous Region (northeast), and Jiahe Autonomous Region (west).
In fact, in the four major areas divided by the Sonia people, there are many conflicts between the princely states. Some princely states were even bluntly divided into two parts, which laid many hidden dangers.
At the same time, the first control did not all evacuate, because they wanted to stay and help establish an elected government in the princely state.
Bute has been promoted to major general. Because of his harmonious relationship with many native tribes, Major General Bute has high hopes from the headquarters. Representatives of all the native states also passed a resolution with a slight advantage, agreeing that the police force led by Major General Bute will temporarily serve as the main force for the entire Western Region. Security forces.
The final establishment of local armed forces and military and police systems will be discussed in detail after the election and the establishment of democratically elected governments of all parties.
Lu Ming was thinking about things in the Western Region when the red phone on the table suddenly rang.
Lu Ming picked up the phone, listened to the person inside, and nodded: "Well, come on, I'm here." The person on the other end of the phone was Yu Luan.
Yu Luan now manages the Kingdom Security Committee and the Royal Air Service. There is no change from more than ten years ago. He is a real Luo Yu double cultivator, and his cultivation is getting deeper and deeper. Standing next to Lu Ming, he faintly looks like a student with twin ponytails. The little girl in the uniform skirt was a beautiful girl with long flowing hair for a while. However, only Lu Ming could appreciate this wonderful scene. Outside, she was the terrifying black rose. In front of her subordinates, she was the terrifying devil wearing a black rose mask.
Exploration in the Northeastern Sea in recent years has been mainly left to the Marine Corps within the framework of the Royal Air Service Regiment.
The progress is extremely slow, because only ships can explore an extremely narrow sea area, which is a passage with a diameter of no more than one kilometer.
In addition, the northern region has become increasingly colder in recent years. Last winter, it snowed heavily in Shengjing.
Lu Ming repeatedly asked for caution when exploring the Northeast Sea.
Especially the year before last, a Qing'e who specializes in tracking and exploration skills drove a hovercraft slightly beyond the safe area of the passage. As a result, it was as if there was a huge suction force on the sea floor that pulled her and the boat into the deep sea. If Yu Luan hadn't happened to be there and struggled to pull her back, she might have disappeared. Even so, she was seriously injured and it took more than half a year to recover.
And now, the news just came from the exploration team that a new continent was discovered on the other side of the sea channel.
However, the expedition team did not land, but caught a fisherman and turned around.
This sea passage was explored little by little every day, and it was basically marked on the chart. It was twists and turns. Over the past few years, it has been explored for more than a thousand kilometers. Buoys have been placed in safe areas on both sides of the island. One advantage is that, The sea surface is extremely calm, without any waves, so you don't have to worry about moving the buoy after it is placed.
Yuluan brought a tape, which was the fisherman's confession and the questions he answered after being confused.
There were also photos of fishermen from various angles. Lu Ming picked them up and looked at them. The red-haired Caucasian looked a bit like the Vikings in previous film and television works. On the contrary, in actual history, the features of the Vikings were not that exaggerated and their hair was not that exaggerated. So bright red.
Making a gesture, Yu Luan pressed the play button on the recorder.
Their language is more like the dialect of the Zhongzhou people in the northeastern region of the Northern Territory.
Were the continental shelves once connected? Lu Ming remembered some theories from his previous life, but he also knew in his heart that they would not be used in this world.
The fisherman answered every aspect of the New World that he knew.
The New World seems very big, but the fishermen naturally don’t know how many people there are.
It sounds like the New World has a unified and powerful central government, but it seems to be corporate-style management.
Basically, it can be seen as a corporate governance model where capital is not curbed in any way.
A world ruled by super giant corporations, which involve every aspect of people's livelihood.
This fisherman is also a worker of a fishing company under a giant company, and is a third-level fisherman.
In this world of giant corporate culture, it has formed its own unique theory. Every citizen is actually a human resource and receives relative treatment according to the value he creates. It sounds extremely fair and just. Lazy people and hard-working workers are not the same. In terms of the survival resources obtained, even the social status is also very different.
Corruption does not seem to exist in this world of giant companies. It regards corruption as the biggest negative asset of the company. It is an absolute cancer in the corporate culture and will be completely eliminated as soon as it is discovered.
However, Lu Ming felt a little cold as he listened. This kind of culture destroys people's personalities and shapes them into robots, which is probably the most efficient mode.
Listening to the fishermen’s answers to humanistic questions, it turns out that the world is completely different from their own in terms of logical thinking and values.
As for the technology of the New World, it sounds similar to that of the Imperial Continent. Some places are lagging behind, and some places may be more advanced than the Imperial Continent. For example, the assembly line industry may be much more efficient than the Imperial Continent.
It seems that the industrial products in this world are all produced in a single standardized way. For example, a TV is just a TV. There is no difference regardless of brand. A civilian passenger vehicle is a civilian passenger vehicle, and a cargo vehicle is a cargo vehicle. They are all just A style, and so on and so forth.
"Can't they find the buoys approaching the New World?" Lu Ming asked.
Yu Luan nodded lightly: "The last fifty kilometers of channel buoys, the special marks I used, can only be identified by me, or Qing'e Nineteenth and Twenty, now. The same is true for the last fifty kilometers on our side. ”
Lu Ming nodded slightly: "Don't come into contact with them first, and observe in secret."
I intuitively feel that there is no benefit in contacting such a society, and it may even bring disaster to the old continent.
