Zhao Zhenshi couldn't believe that his anti-fatigue technology, which he had spent twenty years without a breakthrough in, could be solved just like this.
He even suspected that Guo Qi was teasing him, but when the complete set of technical documents was placed in front of him, he had to admit that the top of the world did belong to geniuses.
Such mature technology, complete and accurate material proportions, as well as the equipment required in the process, and even the source of the equipment, are all clearly written.
Of course, clear here does not mean "detailed".
He could tell at a glance that this document was indeed produced by someone in a very short period of time.
Many of the non-critical steps are mentioned in one stroke. The person who wrote this document was not even willing to give a brief description. Instead, like a college student answering a question, he wrote the words "It's so easy to get."
This surprised Zhao Zhenshi even more. He held the document with trembling fingers, turned to look at Guo Qi and asked:
"Lao Guo, tell me the truth, who wrote this thing?"
"I can see that the document was indeed written in a hurry, but this background is truly unparalleled in the world. This is not an exaggeration, but a statement."
"It's just that the technical documents written by this person are like college students answering questions, and the format and organization are not like those of mature scholars - what's going on?"
Hearing his words, Guo Qi burst out laughing.
Aren't college students answering questions?
Chen Nian hasn’t graduated yet this year!
As for the formal immaturity, it is not difficult to understand.
After all, from beginning to end, he never wrote a single paper seriously, and all technical documents were output in the simplest and most straightforward way.
It may be written on A4 paper, it may be written in an email, or it may be a few words spoken casually.
Guo Qi even heard that the most critical convolutional neural network technology in the Yujing 01 artificial intelligence project was painted with vegetable soup on the dining table in the cafeteria.
Can you say he was perfunctory?
People are so informal!
Thinking of this, Guo Qi smiled and replied:
"I can't tell you who or what organization exported it."
"But what I can tell you is that the form is not important to him or them at all."
"Just tell me if this thing can solve your problem!"
"Yes, that's great!"
Zhao Zhenshi replied quickly.
"I'm just asking, not to find fault - it's just out of curiosity."
"By the way, I can't stay here any longer. I have to go talk to 410 immediately."
"With this technology, it is not a problem to get new steel materials within two weeks - now you don't have to worry about falling behind the schedule."
Zhao Zhenshi's expression became visibly relaxed, and Guo Qi couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw it.
I remember when I was stuck on the difficulty of molybdenum disilicide material, I was as confused and angry as Zhao Zhenshi.
After Chen Nian reached out to him for help, he was equally shocked and excited.
How should we describe that feeling?
It was as if I was stuck in a swamp that I couldn't extricate myself from, almost losing all confidence and letting my body sink, when suddenly a ray of light came in.
This light represents hope.
But it's not just hope.
When he saw the light, he thought that the light would reach out and give him a hand.
But I didn't expect that the light was the light of the excavator.
The man who drove the excavator filled the swamp directly.
Then he turned around and said:
"Walk well, and leave it to me to pave the road from now on."
——
This is indeed what Chen Nian is doing.
It seems that at any time, whenever he encounters a difficulty that he cannot overcome, he will say, "Leave it to me."
With this kind of courage, even though I am over fifty years old, I still feel leisurely and fascinated.
Guo Qi shook his head and looked at his computer screen again.
On the screen were documents about his halfway project.
He took a deep breath, recovered his thoughts, and turned to work on the project.
Chen Nian has already shouldered enough, and he should also be able to bear the burden.
At the same time, in the assembly workshop of No. 603.
Liu Xuejian looked at Chen Nian in front of him with surprise, and asked in disbelief:
"What? Are you saying that the problem of landing gear fatigue has been solved? Or is it solved in terms of materials?"
"I just reported to my superiors. How long did it take to solve it in just one meal?"
"Are you planning to make external purchases?"
"This won't work, Mr. Chen."
"Although I can see that you have a strong background, there are some issues for which we would rather go slow than go fast."
"The problem of core equipment must be solved through procurement. It will leave a lot of tailwinds in the future, and it may even be stuck in the neck."
Hearing his words, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel relieved.
Indeed, for a nationally important weapon like the H-20, if possible, foreign investment must not be allowed to control the supply of key components.
This is why, when making large-tow carbon fiber in the past, we would choose a more difficult and costly equipment introduction plan, and even did not hesitate to use high-speed rail as bait to create an overall situation for the island country.
As a so-called "grassroots" engineer, Liu Xuejian can speak out his thoughts in front of himself, the "second generation" when faced with such problems, which is enough to show that the concept of self-reliance is already being studied. It gradually took root among the staff.
Thinking of this, he answered:
"Don't worry, it won't be solved by purchasing."
"It is said that the superior department has come up with a technical solution that can produce quick results in a short period of time."
"I guess I have accumulated technology for a long time. I will take advantage of this opportunity to work harder and do it in one go."
Chen Nian told lies seriously, as if all this really had nothing to do with him.
"This... always feels a bit too exaggerated."
“The anti-fatigue technology system is quite difficult and involves many links.”
"Most of the plans we discussed before actually focused on the optimization of assembly processes and maintenance processes."
"Now the materials are actually uploaded directly. Unbelievable, unbelievable."
Liu Xuejian said several adjectives in succession.
He could never imagine that the person who solved this problem was standing in front of him now.
Chen Nian smiled slightly and said:
"Actually, I don't think it's that incredible."
"The development of technology is inherently a gradual and accumulated process."
“It’s accumulated a lot, and it’s no big deal to have a breakthrough in a short period of time.”
"That's the same truth."
Liu Xuejian nodded solemnly.
"Then in this case, we don't have any worries."
"The engine will arrive tomorrow. After this last step is completed, our H-20 can officially fly."
"How long do you think it will take?"
Chen Nian asked curiously.
"A month - a month and a half at most."
"Gong Chen, don't leave in a hurry, you must come to see the first flight!"
"certainly!"
Chen Nian answered without hesitation.
And there was a trace of longing in his eyes
On the other side of the sea, in May Club's office.
Houston's face is getting older day by day, and even a few gray hairs have appeared on his head.
For him who has always paid attention to health and maintenance, this is undoubtedly a dangerous signal.
If this continues, I am afraid that I will die suddenly before the Congress takes action against me.
The problem in Sudan must be resolved as soon as possible.
As long as the revolutionary front reaches Khartoum, he will be able to relax completely.
Thinking of this, he asked:
"How are the negotiations with Hamidi going? Does he agree with the plan we proposed?"
The assistant opposite shook his head slightly and replied:
"No."
"Hamidi's attitude is very determined. He not only wants equipment, but also personnel."
"According to what he said, the equipment we have now provided has reached the upper limit of the capabilities of armed personnel in North Darfur."
"They can operate artillery, guns and individual missiles, but if they are allowed to operate radars, drones, or even fighter jets and helicopters, it would be pure delusion."
"In fact, I think his view is indeed right - without comprehensive technical training, no matter how new the equipment is, it will not play its due role in their hands."
"Instead, these equipment are likely to fall into the hands of Sudanese officials due to defeat, causing the risk of technical leaks."
"You know, Sudanese officials are now very close to the Chinese people. When they get the equipment, it means the Chinese people get the equipment."
Hearing the assistant's words, Houston couldn't help but frown.
Technical Training?
Staff support?
Isn't this just trying to get yourself into trouble?
You know, the mere import of arms can still be regarded as "pure commercial behavior", but if one's own technical personnel appear on that land, the meaning will be completely different.
——
Even one's own staunchest ally must question such an action.
"At a time when the world economic crisis is raging, you actually still have the heart to start a war everywhere?"
"The Middle East is not enough, and now we have to open a battlefield in Africa?"
"At least there is oil in the Middle East. Everyone understands the need to protect the economy. But what does Africa have?"
There is no doubt that such a question will definitely appear on the table of Congress, and later, I will definitely be questioned by Congress because of it.
The stakes are high.
Not just economic risks, but military and diplomatic risks as well.
But the problem is, if they don't agree to Hamidi's request, they will really cower in that poor place in North Darfur and stand still.
A Chinese idiom popped into Houston's mind for no apparent reason:
It’s hard to get off the tiger.
He had always found the word vivid.
Riding on the back of a tiger, maybe as long as you seize an opportunity, you can kill the tiger.
But if you want to come down halfway, your final fate may be to be eaten by a crazy tiger.
——
Be sure not to fall down.
No matter what the cost.
Thinking of this, he said:
"They want technology, so we will give them technology."
"Go and communicate with Guolou and ask them to send military advisers to provide guidance."
"You can go through Blackwater's channel, but don't end up personally. At least in form, we can't be too blatant."
"clear."
The assistant nodded and recorded Houston's request in his notebook.
"Since we agree to personnel assistance, will the previously determined arms export plan also need to be changed?"
"What's the current plan?"
Houston asked.
"Two Avenger radar air defense systems need to be equipped with SVML devices, equipped with AN/VRC-91 radio stations, and carry 32 Stinger missiles."
"Four Black Hawk helicopters - they want AH-64s, but we can't give them that."
"Two F-15 fighter jets, including simple ground command system."
"Fortunately, the asking price is not too high."
"really."
The assistant nodded again.
"If you look at the equipment itself, their demands are actually very restrained, and they also target the current combat shortcomings of the Revolutionary Front organization."
"The air defense system solves the problem of official armed helicopter penetration, the Black Hawk helicopter solves the problem of reconnaissance and rapid support, and the F-15 fighter jet pursues the ability to control the air within a small range."
"These things are necessary to attack Khartoum - we even plan to add some additional drones to help them carry out long-range strikes."
"However, having said that, the equipment itself is not expensive, but adding our technical support is expensive."
"yes."
Houston couldn't help but sigh.
For our own motherland, the price of military equipment is simply not worth mentioning.
A piece of mature equipment is just a quick product on the assembly line.
The only things that are truly valuable are people.
Perhaps, we should also charge some interest to Darfur.
——
Interest in addition to the debt of "occupying Khartoum".
After thinking for a moment, he said:
"There is a reporter from China who is currently in the North Darfur Revolutionary Front camp. Do you know about this?"
"I know."
"Liu Guangyu, he leaked the news about the Revolutionary Front operation to the Chinese side - he was supposed to be dealt with, but because of the threat from the Chinese side and the operation was already canceled, he is still living well now."
"However, the Revolutionary Front monitors him very closely, and he should no longer pose any threat."
"No."
Houston interrupted the assistant and continued:
"His mere presence is a threat."
"We, the Revolutionary Front, must deal with him."
"Why?"
The assistant's eyes widened in surprise.
"This is not a necessary action, and it cannot affect our plan, but if we take action against him, it will cause greater risks. Is this really necessary?"
A sinister smile appeared on Houston's face. After a moment of pause, he replied:
"Yes, this is indeed not a necessary action."
"At least, it's not necessary for us."
"But for the Revolutionary Front, it is necessary."
"This is their 'certificate of surrender'."
"A certificate of nomination?"
The assistant subconsciously repeated the strange last syllable.
He wasn't as keen on studying his opponents as Houston was, so he didn't know what the word really meant.
"That's right, submit a certificate of name."
"You just said that Sudanese officials are very close to China, so we have to consider whether one day, Darfur will gradually get closer to them."
"We have to eliminate that risk."
"So, Liu Guangyu's death is not important."
"But whose hands he dies in is very important."
