After more than an hour of driving, the convoy finally came off the provincial highway and turned onto a dedicated road leading directly to the rocket experimental launch site. The rocket experimental launch site is actually not far from the provincial highway, and it only takes ten minutes to drive there. This place is not open to the public and belongs to the technology research and development center of Haoyu Technology in the northwest.
At first, this was just a rocket launch experiment center in the desert, but later Wu Hao saw that it was good, so he moved some experimental projects that were more dangerous or couldn't be carried out in the city here.
For example, the Biological and Life Sciences Research Center, this institute mainly studies cutting-edge technologies in biology and life sciences.
This laboratory must be isolated from the outside world, and this desert is an ideal barrier.
If they want to make breakthroughs in the field of biotechnology in the future, they must engage in research on some high-risk projects.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish such a laboratory far away from humans and natural ecosystems to conduct research in the field of plants and animals.
In this way, even if there is an accident in the laboratory in the future, these experimental products cannot spread and affect humans and nature.
For example, biological experts have used genetic technology to cultivate a new genetically modified plant. They cannot let it go out before ensuring that it is safe enough and will not cause harm to humans and the natural environment.
In cities and densely populated areas, if this kind of plant, whose hazards are unknown, is allowed to flow out, it may grow over a large area and even cause an ecological disaster.
But in this inaccessible desert, even a desert with rare creatures, it will be much safer.
Another example is some of the heavy machinery research projects carried out by Wu Hao and the others, such as a large drone that Wu Hao and the others are developing. This is a very good place for research and experimentation.
In fact, there is an airport runway here, but it is used for experiments. However, this airport has not yet passed the approval and certification, and foreign aircraft cannot take off and land here.
Moreover, the airspace they are in is also an airspace controlled by the military and is not open to the public. It is very difficult to open a route.
Wu Hao and the others are also in close communication with the military and trying to promote this matter, but the progress is relatively slow. I heard that the sky above here belongs to the training airspace for Air Force fighter planes, and it is difficult to open it to the outside world.
However, according to Wu Hao's close relationship with the military, the military is also actively studying and coordinating this matter, and I believe it will not take long to get the results.
In addition, there are other heavy equipment and important projects that need to be kept secret for the time being.
So here we come again after more than a year, and the place has changed a lot. First, the floor area has been expanded several times and divided into multiple areas according to functions.
In addition to the research area, there is also a living area, and the facilities in the living area are also very complete. Because it is difficult to build houses in the desert, the houses here are all built from the mainland and transported directly for installation. They are a bit like simple board houses or modular container houses.
The layout is very good, the facilities are complete, and it is very popular with everyone.
The same is true for several large factories. The steel components are all produced in the mainland and then transported for installation.
It is also because of this that the construction and development here is so rapid. In just one year, it has changed drastically.
On the periphery of the entire base, surrounding this circle of solar panels, the electricity consumption of the entire base comes from this.
The calls generated by these solar panels will be directly stored in a large power storage station assembled with new lithium batteries for use by the base.
As for the drinking water problem of the base, it has also been solved. From the initial reliance on water storage trucks to transport water, now a 50-centimeter steel water pipeline diverts water from hundreds of kilometers of rivers, and a huge artificial lake.
Relying on sufficient water sources, the base relies on intelligent unmanned tree-planting vehicles to plant drought-tolerant trees around the base 24 hours a day.
Because of the guaranteed water source, the survival rate of the surrounding drought-tolerant trees is very high, and some desert drought-resistant weeds have appeared on the ground, and even hares and poultry have appeared, which has initially brought life to this barren land. .
As for living materials and logistical supplies, they are transported by road and go back and forth from the autonomous prefecture capital to the base every day, and are handled by dedicated personnel. There are some supplies that are not available locally, so we must provide them from Anxi or other countries.
Even for the convenience of employees' life and work, the base also coordinated with operators to set up 5G base stations and optical fiber networks at the base to achieve high-speed Internet access.
Therefore, employees living here actually have no inconvenience as living in a big city. If you want to go back, you can just fly back and rest for a week, and then come back to work.
The convoy stopped in the small square in the center of the base, where the leaders of the base had already been waiting.
Seeing Wu Hao and the others getting out of the car, these people gathered around them.
Seeing this, Wu Hao shook hands with these people one by one and said unhappily: "Didn't I tell you that you don't need to answer? Why don't you listen? You are still waiting under the sun on this hot day. How can you be so formalistic?"
Hearing Wu Hao's words, the leader Yu Chengwu quickly smiled and explained: "Mr. Wu, you have traveled a lot and finally come to our Northwest R&D Center to inspect the work. We have to welcome you no matter what. This is the least etiquette.
Besides, we have heard what you said, and the people who came to pick you up are all voluntary, and we have no organization. This shows that we, the people, miss you. "
After hearing Yu Chengwu's words, Wu Hao's complexion improved a lot. Then he looked at everyone's tanned skin and couldn't help but feel a little distressed and said: "Look at you people, you forget everything when you work. I'm not letting you Did someone buy you sunscreen and toiletries, but you didn’t use them anyway?
If you want to show off, will your wife and children still let you in after you return? "
Ha ha ha ha……
After hearing his words, everyone laughed.
Yu Chengwu smiled and said: "I sent it and used it, but I forgot about it when I was busy. And the big men don't pay attention to these things, so that's it."
Wu Hao shook his head when he heard this and said: "This is not acceptable. Your image and temperament also represent the company's image and temperament, so appearance is still very important.
Moreover, many of you are still single and don’t even have a girlfriend. If you have to show off here for a few months, how will you find a girlfriend by then?
Therefore, you people should not be careless. You must take the lead in setting an example and role model, so that other young people can follow you.
To be honest, we are all brothers under our control, and we have all gone through hardships together. We can't watch them being single without finding a girlfriend. "
Hehehehe...
