.So senior, you also grew up in a rural area? But why do you feel different? "
In the restaurant, Wang Jiancheng asked carefully while drinking soup from his bowl.
Chen Nian was stunned for a moment after hearing his words.
Are you really different?
should be.
Because of this sentence, people in my hometown also said it to me when I just traveled through time.
However, I didn’t actually think deeply about it at that time. I just felt that as a time traveler, after seeing the larger world, it was a little different to return to this backward era and return to that backward small county. , or even being out of place is normal.
But now that I think about it carefully, it seems that my "difference" is not because of these things.
Perhaps, what really changes you is your own pursuit.
In the previous life, like all other ordinary people, he knew that his abilities were limited, so what he pursued was indeed the kind of personal satisfaction in the sense of universal value that Chen Feiyun mentioned before.
Houses, cars, women, material desires...etc.
But after rebirth, his vision seemed to be suddenly opened.
In my subconscious, there was always a voice saying:
I can do bigger things, pursue further goals, and truly change the world.
Therefore, with this belief, I have truly become different.
On the one hand, it is indifference to something.
On the other hand, it is the passionate pursuit of something.
But obviously, it was impossible for Chen Nian to say these words to a junior student he had just met, so it was he who answered:
"Maybe it's because I went to college one year longer than you. You will know later that college will change a lot of things."
"Okay. I hope I can become like you."
Wang Jiancheng said thoughtfully.
"Becoming like me? So what's that like?"
Chen Nian asked curiously.
He quite wanted to know what he looked like in the eyes of a stranger.
"Well, it's hard to describe. Probably just calm, as if nothing can trouble you."
"Senior, you know, when living in rural areas, especially in rural areas with poor economic conditions, what everyone lacks the most is calmness."
"It seems like every day is tense, and every minute and every second is spent thinking about the next step."
"In spring, fruit trees need to be weeded and fertilized; in summer, they need to be mopped and watered; in autumn, the fruits need to be harvested and packaged."
“Everything here, even though it’s just a word, is not easy to do.”
"You know, in recent years, the labor force in rural areas has become smaller and smaller, but the cost of farming has become higher and higher. Many times, everyone is trying to maintain a certain balance. Once the balance is broken, there is no chance to recover. ”
Chen Nianshen nodded sympathetically.
In fact, at this point in time in 2004, rural life in China was extremely difficult.
There is no pastoral pastoral-style leisurely elegance at all, nor can it be described as relaxed and freehand as in some literary works.
The carrying capacity of the land has been exploited to the extreme, but the dividends from the explosive development of industry have not yet had time to be fed back.
This leads to a consequence:
Farmers bear the lowest pressure in economic development. They are like a foundation, supporting the development of the entire country in an inconspicuous position.
In this case, you talk to me calmly?
Living is not easy.
Not only Wang Jiancheng, but even his own family with relatively good conditions have actually experienced "starvation".
Of course, that's not starvation in the absolute sense, it's just that you don't eat enough fat and protein all year round, so you're in a state of chronic hunger.
This situation lasted until after 2002 and lasted until I was in my senior year of high school.
Thinking of this, Chen Nian said half-comforting and half-encouragement:
"It's okay. Studying changes your destiny. If you take classes well, if you can get a scholarship every year, there won't be much problem in your life."
"You don't even need to consider extracurricular part-time jobs, the bonus will be enough for you to live on."
"Understood, senior, don't worry."
Wang Jiancheng nodded solemnly.
"But I'm quite curious. Since your family's conditions are not that good, and you have a sister who is also going to school, why don't you take the national defense examination? The salary of national defense students is much better than that of Western Polytechnic University, right?"
Chen Nian asked curiously.
"Because I want to fly, the aircraft from NPU are the best."
"Who did you listen to?"
Chen Nian said dumbfounded.
"Based on the current ranking, Beihang University is the best."
"Well, it's because Western Polytechnic University gave me a scholarship."
"I understand. So what kind of plane do you want to make?"
Chen Nian continued to ask.
"B-2, F-22, F117, J-22. That's the kind of aircraft."
"Of course I'm just giving an example. If I were to talk about my own ideas, I would like to design an airplane that you can never find but is everywhere."
"You mean radar invisibility?"
"Radar stealth is one thing, but the more important thing is 'ubiquity', because stealth alone cannot actually form an effective deterrent. Only arrival at any time is the meaning of deterrence itself."
"Why else would Americans brag about 'Global Hour'? You're right, senior."
Chen Nian nodded and said in agreement:
"It's indeed interesting, and the idea is correct, but the question is, how do you want to implement it?"
Hearing Chen Nian's question, Wang Jiancheng smiled sheepishly and replied:
"Hehe. Well, actually, I don't have many ideas yet."
"But, I have a few ideas."
“For example, to achieve ubiquity, there are many paths.”
"Such as ultra-long combat readiness cruise time, ultra-high speed, air and space integration, etc."
"Think about it, if an aircraft can fly in the air for weeks or even months without needing any resupply, will it be a greater deterrent to ground targets?"
"On the other hand, super high speed is also very useful. Although we now have intercontinental missiles, the problem is that as soon as they are used, intercontinental missiles mean mutual destruction, and few people will use them as conventional deterrent weapons."
"So, if there is an aircraft that can arrive in 30 minutes like an intercontinental missile, and can also accurately strike key targets, will our options be even greater?"
"To achieve this, the role of air and space integration comes into play."
Wang Jiancheng talked eloquently, and Chen Nian listened with great interest.
Although compared to myself at this time, the other party's imagination seems less professional, but in terms of thinking and imagination, there is actually no problem.
What if one day he really makes a name for himself at NPU and becomes a leading aircraft designer in this country?
He still has a lot of time and plenty of opportunities.
By that time, will he really design a fighter plane for China that will never land, be super-fast, as elusive as a ghost but be everywhere?
If such a thing is really created, the enemy's nightmare will soon come.
"So have you decided what the plane will be called? After listening to you talk so much, it seems like it has been planned for a long time. It shouldn't have a name, right?"
"I've thought about it, I did pick a name, but it's just a bit of a dud."
Wang Jiancheng said sheepishly.
"Could you tell me that middle school two is normal?"
"Well"
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Jiancheng spoke:
"Actually, what I think of is a system."
"Every piece of equipment in the system has a name, so I won't mention it one by one."
"But this system is called fluctuating light."
"Fluoctlight Air and Space Defense System."
