After finishing the small class, Chen Nian returned to school as usual to take the necessary main courses, and then went to the library to study by himself until dinner time, when he and Li Xiang went to the cafeteria to eat.
Now his enthusiasm for "eating" has increased a lot. The reason is very simple:
We can save so many source points by having a meal and chatting, who wouldn’t want to change it!
Of course, such good things don't happen every day. Compared with the "academic exchange" that day, what the two of them talked about today was much more ordinary.
It’s just that so and so is in love, so and so is pursuing whom, which senior has won the national award, which senior has gone abroad and doesn’t plan to come back, and so on.
When talking about the topic of going abroad, Li Xiang suddenly seemed to remember something. He lowered his voice, came to Chen Nian and said mysteriously:
"Chen Nian, do you know that something happened to Zhang Rui?"
"Something happened? What happened?"
Chen Nian asked subconsciously, but almost at the same time, he thought of the last incident.
Conspiracy about brain drain.
In that big conspiracy, Zhang Rui played an insignificant role.
But it is often such small characters who are the first to be sacrificed in the storm.
"I heard that he was punished. Do you remember what he asked us to do last time, right? It was the job of recruiting people to Senas Company."
"I heard that there was a lot involved behind this matter. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology took action, naming and criticizing Sainas for using unfair means to compete for talents. Although it was not said that it was our side, when the news came out, the school was able to bear it. Can’t stand anymore.”
"It is said that they conducted a self-investigation and found out several pimps for Sainas. All of them were dealt with."
"Zhang Rui's case is relatively minor, so he's just punished."
"I heard that there is a senior who is studying for a Ph.D. He is also involved in the crime of leaking secrets. He is probably already in..."
Having said this, Li Xiang paused for a moment, looked around and then continued:
"I guess it won't be easy for you to get out again. This thing may sound small, but the things behind it are not small..."
Chen Nian nodded slightly but said nothing.
He was very clear about the crisis behind this matter, so naturally he would not think that the official handling methods were excessive.
It is said that overcorrection must be overcorrected, and the current measures are just to deal with them. For him, it is best to deal with Senas as well and completely cut off their plot in China.
----But who knows if there is?
With Rabbit's character, after arresting a group of people and confirming their intentions, he will probably start to stir up trouble behind their backs.
I just don’t know if it will touch the interests of certain groups and cause turmoil in public opinion.
Thinking of this, he asked:
"Can this matter spread? What did everyone say?"
After hearing his question, Li Xiang thought for a moment and replied:
"Anyway, the news has spread quite widely in our school, and there are a lot of speculations - did you know that a new project has been launched in the 601st School recently? It is said that the service plan of the J-10 has also been postponed."
"Now everyone is saying that this matter is related to the new project, and they are talking about it with both nose and eyes."
"It is said that the higher authorities wanted to use their own engines to fly the J-10, and the WS-10 became the WS-10B, so the old project was shelved..."
Chen Nian hummed, but he was not too surprised by what Li wanted to say.
After all, most large-scale projects cannot be hidden. This "inability to hide" refers to the fact that "the existence of the project" cannot be hidden.
In addition, the cancellation of the AL-31FN introduction plan is public information. With a little speculation, it is not difficult for the outside world to guess the official intentions.
----But what they guessed was just a smoke bomb.
However, since the official intends to lead everyone to guess in the wrong direction, he certainly cannot leak the secret.
After studying in secrecy for so many days, he will no longer make stupid mistakes.
So, he deliberately said:
"WS-10B? I don't know much about this thing..."
"Damn it, you don't know what's normal. We're not here to learn this, but I saw some forums on the Internet saying that."
"What is that? Which one is that?"
"...The scolding was quite harsh."
"What kind of cruel method?"
Chen Nian asked curiously.
"Uh... I can't explain it clearly. Let's go back to the dormitory. I'll use Lao Cai's computer to find it for you."
Therefore, Chen Nian followed Li Xiang back to the dormitory without writing. After driving away Cai Kun who was playing games, the two sat in front of the computer and began to browse information about the so-called "new project."
At one glance, Chen Nian couldn't help but frown.
The news about the military in this era is really too harsh...
"Is China the biggest loser? The AL-31FN engine introduction project failed, and the J-10 was forced to use domestic engines."
"Is it difficult to solve the lack of core problem? Institutional problems may become the biggest obstacle to the development of scientific research."
"Russia refuses to cooperate! China frequently encounters betrayal by 'friendly' parties. Perhaps it is time to reflect."
"The gap is widening further. How far are we from true 'freedom'?"
"The engine issue has once again reached a deadlock. If we had to do it again, would we make the same choice? The answer seems obvious. If the fundamental system does not change, no matter how many times it is repeated, the ending will be the same. As I write this, the author I couldn’t help but fall into deep thought..."
After reading these news, Chen Nian was dumbfounded.
This was an era when public knowledge was rampant and ideological trends were turbulent. Stories about German sewers and elementary school students from island countries were very popular, and the news media naturally followed them. Even if it was just a trivial matter, they could create a lot of shocking content.
Not to mention, the official decision this time does have a significant impact.
In addition to the news in the media, public opinion on various forums is not optimistic either.
Most people are questioning the performance of the WS-10 and whether the suspension of AL-31FN procurement is the right decision.
"WS-10? That kind of thing is enough to give to small countries in the third world. Isn't it a joke to use it on our third-generation aircraft?"
"Haha, a good horse deserves a good saddle, but a stupid donkey deserves a broken saddle. I said it a long time ago that the J-10 is not a third-generation aircraft at all, but a two-and-a-half-generation aircraft at most. Wouldn't it be just right to use the WS-10?"
"So, everything is a problem of the system. Others have already moved to the new world. A certain country was still stuck in its ways. Now it's better. Even the so-called friends won't take you to play, right?"
"Let's go to the United States in the next life. But it's okay. We don't have third-generation aircraft. Maybe we won't have to lead the way by then."
"It should be said that Master Wang has a better chance of winning..."
.......
However, among the many negative comments, Chen Nian suddenly saw that there was an ID called "Red Kindergarten" that had been sparing no effort to confront those who were leading the way.
His language was so sharp and his words so dirty that even Chen Nian couldn't bear to read it.
But in huge contrast, his professional knowledge is extremely strong and his analysis is to the point.
"Fuck you, a bunch of bastards, **** motherless bastards, what good will it do you if China is weak? Are you worthy of Wang Wei when you say such sarcastic words?"
"F*****, the hero's body is still cold, a bunch of flies are here*****, your mother***** is rotten, your sister***** is hanging on the tree... "
"Also, are you insulting my intelligence by saying that the AL-31FN is not for sale to the Russians?"
"What is Russia like now? Last year, the White Swan was almost sold. How can a broken engine be sold?"
"I have long said that the AL-31FN has major flaws, and it is very likely that the official will not purchase it in the end. You **** didn't believe it, but do you believe it now?"
"Let me tell you, this decision is definitely not because of WS-10. There must be big plans from the authorities. Just wait and see."
"When the time comes, I'll slap all your **** faces into pieces!"
Seeing this, Chen Nian took a breath of cold air.
I can't let him talk any more.
Someone like him is obviously not an insider, but that's the trouble. What he said is all speculation and is not subject to confidentiality regulations!
If someone believed it, wouldn't it actually leak the secret?
He was about to call Lei Gang to report the situation, but at this moment, the post was refreshed.
There are a lot of comments below.
"Yes, yes, your country must be doing something big. Live a few more years, maybe your grandson can see it."
"Are you making such a big move? Why, you want to build the F119? Do you believe what you're bragging about?"
"Where does this big move come from? With the current national strength, WS-10 is already the limit..."
"It's impossible for us to develop a new engine, at least not within 10 years."
"Yes, I have inside information. The AL-31FN will restart negotiations, and the new engine will take at least 15 years."
"15 years? Haha, you are overthinking. It would be great if it could be produced in 20 years. The so-called WS-10 is actually just a poor imitation."
...
These comments appeared at an unusually fast speed, and Chen Nian vaguely smelled something familiar in them.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly a strange idea came to his mind:
Damn it, the War Bureau has already been born during this period?
