This thing actually costs 1,000 points?
Jiang Chen was shocked.
The system is such a profiteer!
Jiang Chen weighed it up. According to his current level, it would take a lot of time to manufacture the X engine. He had many things on his hands, so it might not be possible to develop this specifically.
Jiang Chen is now afraid that things will really turn out like what Xiang Yang said. Boeing and Airbus will take turns to rip off people. Then the civil aviation after Dragon Kingdom will have to depend on people's faces.
So the best way is to spend money to buy the X engine!
Jiang Chen just did what he said. As soon as he bought the engine, he devoted himself to drawing the design drawings.
After three days of busy work, Jiang Chen finally completed the design drawing.
Jiang Chen felt that if it hadn't been for the previous experience with the transformation cycle engine, it would not have been so easy to complete the design this time.
He moved his neck and sent the design drawing to Academician Liu.
In less than ten minutes, Academician Liu called.
"Academician Jiang, did you design this picture?"
"That's right." Jiang Chen felt a little guilty, thinking that he had driven the designed engine and wondered if Academician Liu would believe him.
The technology and ideas inside are too advanced. If Academician Liu doesn't trust himself, the 1,000 points will probably be wasted.
Fortunately, because of previous contacts, Academician Liu knew that Jiang Chen's ideas were often unexpected, so he did not regard his design as a joke, but asked Xiang Yang to ask him for advice.
The two of them asked more and more detailed questions, Jiang Chen's answers were fluent, and there was no room for confusion.
When it came to esoteric topics, Jiang Chen even gave an impromptu lecture. Academician Liu and Xiang Yang listened attentively like two college students.
In the end, Academician Liu and Xiang Yang had to believe every word Jiang Chen said.
"Academician Jiang, you have been a big help! We currently have no ability to develop passenger aircraft engines by ourselves. If this engine is really produced, then we don't have to worry about Boeing and Airbus at all!"
"Yes, the aircraft was manufactured by others. We are too passive. Now the plan designed by Academician Jiang is initially feasible. We need to hurry up and advance this project!" Xiang Yang was full of excitement.
For passenger aircraft, if the engine can be manufactured, then the aircraft body is only a matter of time.
With Jiang Chen's design drawings, he believed that the entire aircraft project could be approved soon.
It was not convenient for Jiang Chen to participate in the establishment of the project, so Jiang Yang took the lead.
However, when it comes to manufacturing passenger aircraft, it doesn’t matter if one company, COMAC alone, says it.
Without state support, COMAC would not be able to build it even if it wanted to.
Jiang Chen didn't know about this at first. It wasn't until Yan Zhengqian returned to the base half a month later and told him about it that Jiang Chen found out.
"At that time, the project was originally planned to only build the airframe part, and then cooperate with CFM to develop the engine. However, it was rejected by Xiangyang."
"Then he took out your design drawings and asked COMAC to cancel its plan to cooperate with CFM."
"They finally agreed?"
"That's not true. People at COMAC have to consider economic interests. They think cooperation with CFM is the best choice."
CFM is a joint venture between Eagle Sauce and Gallic Chicken, and the technology is indeed there.
COMAC’s choice is also more realistic.
But, Jiang Chen was a little depressed because the design plan he had worked so hard to make could not be used.
What a loss, that’s 1,000 points!
Why don't you buy something else? !
Just when Jiang Chen was feeling gloomy, Yan Zhengqian smiled slightly and said, "Academician Jiang, please listen to what I have to say. Because this matter requires the approval of the leaders of the capital, COMAC put forward the plan."
"Xiang Yang was not convinced and included your design drawings in the report. The plan had many pages. No one from COMAC noticed it when they submitted the plan. The capital leaders discovered it when they checked it."
Damn it, is this okay?
"After the leaders of the capital saw the design drawings, they asked Xiang Yang and people from COMAC to understand the situation. Because you had previously developed the entire J-20C, the leaders of the capital were willing to let Xiang Yang and his team try it according to your drawings."
"However, there is a time limit. Progress must be made within two years, otherwise we will still choose to cooperate with CFM."
Jiang Chen understood. This big aircraft must be built by Longguo, but if the core engine can be made domestically, it will be made domestically. If not, we can only find cooperation with external companies.
When the time comes, Boeing and Airbus will attack each other, and they will be able to find ways not to be restricted by them.
Large passenger aircraft will be retired in about 15-20 years, so Boeing and Airbus know that Longguo Airlines will buy their aircraft in order to maintain their business. The main thing is to have a confident aircraft.
These gringos made all the money!
Jiang Chen was speechless, but he could only wait.
After the passenger plane incident came to an end, Jiang Chen got into the information ocean of communication engineering.
But before he could figure it out, MOSS told him that eighty Kunpeng drones had been produced.
With Yan Zhengqian's authorization, Jiang Chen connected MOSS to the military data link, and then operated the hundreds of Kunpeng drones in the base.
The low roar of the engine gradually sounded, accompanied by the slight vibration of the fuselage. The drone's pulse jet system releases a brief burst of flames and thrust that propels them vertically off the ground.
Under the precise control of MOSS, hundreds of drones seemed to be performing a mechanical ballet at the moment they took off.
Fortunately, after Jiang Chen developed the high-energy electromagnetic pulse device, there were fewer spy satellites in the Dragon Kingdom.
Otherwise, the images captured by the satellite at this moment are enough to cause a sensation abroad.
The people in the base were all stunned at this time. The shock brought to them by hundreds of super large drones left them completely speechless!
MOSS was operating recklessly under Jiang Chen's instructions. After Guo Fan heard the noise, he came out of the studio and saw this magnificent scene at a glance. He hurriedly called the photographer to take pictures of this scene as material.
This material can be used in the movie every second!
If you take the photo, you will earn it!
Jiang Chen recorded some problems while operating MOSS. After the test, he did not forget to teach MOSS.
A few days later, Yan Zhengqian told Jiang Chen something not big or small.
"We are currently preparing to announce that Academician Jiang has developed a variable cycle engine. The leaders want you to give the engine a name."
"Kunlun." Jiang Chen blurted out.
Kunlun, the Mountain of the Gods.
Only this name can bear the title of Blue Star's first variable cycle engine.
Jiang Chen wants those little foreigners to see the power of Halong Country!
So I chose a name that was extremely dragon-like.
It doesn’t matter if foreigners can’t read it, then take this opportunity to let them learn!
Yan Zhengqian also liked the name, so he hurriedly went to give the name.
"Huh? How to arrange the flight to Nanzhou? We can't let the drone take us there!" After Jiang Chen finished speaking, Yan Zhengqian had long since disappeared.
He is not in a hurry, but Guo Fan is.
On this day, when Jiang Chen was walking on the road, Guo Fan would catch him and ask about the time to go to Nanzhou.
Jiang Chen had no choice but to ask Guo Fan to find MOSS for help.
After experiencing Guo Fan's thoughts, MOSS had no choice but to go to Yan Zheng.
