Vitalite and the East Soviet working group flew back to Irkutsk overnight, presumably a major earthquake will usher in the space circles of East and West Russia.

And the situation in China is probably not much better than in the north.

Hu Wenhai's series of designs were quickly sorted into words and reported through Dai Zhongshan's channels.

After AVIC got the report, it was like holding a lump of magma in its hand, and the situation was stabbed even higher.

At this time, the news from many other channels has also been summarized one after another.

The Soviet space agency in the East Soviet Union has long been worried about raising its team, and it does not need so many people in the Far East.

Although Baikonur can digest part of it, the space industry is still a fart without a launch mission?

In recent years, some people in the space system of Western Russia have been living a bad life, mainly relying on proton rockets to bring in a lot of international business. However, seeing that the proton rockets in the Soviet era are getting fewer and fewer, Western Russia itself still has not restored the production capacity of proton rockets.

After the Great Recession of the Khrunichev Space Center in the nineties, the hearts of the entire group were scattered. There are technical, high-level self-seeking, bureaucracy and nepotism, and the hope that a piece of the Soviet Proton legacy remains.

In the end, especially after the Plesetsk incident, Khrunichev did not even have the courage to reproduce the Proton.

As for other space organizations and the Western Russian Space Agency, without the income of the Proton, life is even worse.

The situation in Western Russia is much worse than that of Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the map head now spends all his experience on maintaining the surface and whitewashing the walls, and does not dare to move these domestic oligarchs and related households, nor does he dare to stimulate the army that has accumulated a lot of resentment, and can only watch the atmosphere of the whole society completely fall into chaos and degeneration.

Although these experts and scholars in the aerospace system can barely make ends meet, their dissatisfaction with society has become difficult to contain, and even after the overall deterioration of the social environment, it is impossible to close their doors and live a small time.

The flight of these people who are counting on academics and technology to eat has gradually become a consensus in Western Russia.

But where to go and where to find a way out are the problems that these people are concerned about and difficult to solve.

Of course, it is good to go to the United States, but can you have a good life if you go to the United States? Many people who have already gone to the United States obviously do not give optimistic answers. Even if they used to receive a salary and wait for death, many people did not even have this treatment, they could not eat welfare in the United States, and it was not for nothing that university professors could only deliver food.

It's easy to go to Dongsu, but Dongsu is too small to have a future after all. No matter how many people come now, they are just receiving salaries and supporting them, and they don't even have projects.

What is the attitude of old Europe towards the Russians, don't you know in your heart?

Where else could you go?

It was at this time that a piece of news quietly circulated in the aerospace community.

Many people suddenly remembered that they had heard that China's development had been quite good in recent years? Moreover, many scholars and engineers who had returned from China seemed to be doing very well, and the Chinese side was indeed quite sincere, and the conditions offered by the dual-introduction project were still very attractive.

It's just China...... After all, that's China, can China really say so good? Can the Russians accept the environment over there?

These concerns still made many Russians stay.

However, this time the news was not moved by many people.

A space launch center to be built on a low-latitude island is likely to be used as a ground support for Mir. There will be no shortage of projects for the next twenty years, after all, the maintenance of Mir alone will have to send at least four shipment warehouses every year.

As for the new functional module, the new rocket, and the new space shuttle, these are still too far away to say more.

And the most interesting thing is the initiator of this project.

Hu Wenhai, the world's richest man in China.

There is no doubt that Vitalite had no motive to lie. If he deceives everyone in this matter, it is basically equivalent to social death.

A liar may not be afraid of this happening, but a scientific researcher who lives on fame is basically no different from dying.

So unlike the uncertain situations of the past, it is clear that this is a piece of news that can be trusted. Aerospace is not an ordinary industry, and it relies heavily on national investment, otherwise it would not be so difficult for these aerospace talents to find a way.

However, if there is any private enterprise that can invest in aerospace, I am afraid that only Hu Wenhai's capital thickness is possible.

The name Hu Wenhai is indeed worth the price.

It is better to be able to work for the richest man in the world than to hang half-dead on the side of Western Russia.

Not to mention the fact that I heard that this cosmodrome is on a low-latitude island near the equator, which is too attractive to the Russians!

As we all know, seaside recuperation was the highest pleasure in the Soviet Union! March Chinese

Of course, the ostensible reason is that the low-latitude islands along the coast are conducive to fuel saving for launches, and the sea transportation is conducive to the transportation of large space items, and these are also true. With the help of the large linear velocity near the equator and the centrifugal phenomenon caused by inertia, the fuel consumption of the rocket lifted off from the Wenchang launch center can be greatly reduced, and it is indeed a rare launch site with geographical advantages in China.

In China, apart from the Nansha launch site, I am afraid there is no launch site with more inherent advantages than the Wenchang launch site.

What's more, the actions of the East Soviet side soon made the people in Western Russia realize that I am afraid that this opportunity is also a situation where there is a quick hand and a slow hand is not. Without waiting for the West Russian counterparts to rush over, the preparatory work for the Xichang launch center was already in full swing.

"Zhang, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

Ambachumyan enthusiastically stretched out his hands and held them tightly with this long-lost old friend.

On the seaside of Wenchang City, a factory playground that has just completed construction is crowded with people at this time. An old man with two and a half heads of gray hair, although the color of his skin is different, has a common feeling, even a common memory.

Of course, there are also some middle-aged and young Soviet scholars who are looking at this strange country with curiosity.

The humid air, the warm sun, the tropical atmosphere and the rattling waves all made them feel new.

I guess it's going to be an unforgettable trip.

No, maybe it's not just a journey.

Ambachumyan doesn't look very old, Russian women age faster, but Russian men age more slowly.

He looked at the other side, and his voice was full of emotion: "Since you returned to China in 61, our communication has gradually decreased. But in my heart, you will always be the good brother who lives in the bunk bed with me!"

"I'm 65 years old this year, we're all old! I didn't expect to have a chance to meet again in this life!"

Zhang Guitian patted Ampachumyan's hand vigorously, and his voice was full of emotion: "I heard that you were elected as an academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences, I am really happy for you!"

"I heard that you also became an academician of the Academy of Engineering last year, I think this is something we didn't expect when we were studying at the Moscow Aviation Institute!"

"We were still two young people, and we just wanted to wander in the ocean of knowledge, where would we think so much!"

Zhang Guitian's eyes were also a little hazy, and he couldn't help sighing: "Our alma mater, what a good time it was." ”

Hearing his sigh, Ambakumyan also suddenly became lonely: "I don't know how many human treasures have come out of the Moscow Aviation Academy, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to hear their names in the future." ”

"No, we will continue their work and let their names be remembered by more people one day. ”

Zhang Guitian said: "Old friends, old classmates, we can work together again this time! Our cooperation will let more people know that we have studied at the Moscow Aviation Institute." ”

"What, is the news I heard true?!" Ambakumyan held Zhang Guitian's hand and obviously became stronger, glared at him and asked: "Do you really want to build a big rocket? Sell a liquid oxygen kerosene refueling cycle engine? This is a gold-swallowing monster, can you do it?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Guitian nodded vigorously: "We want to engage in liquid oxygen kerosene refueling, and we also want to build big rockets! We want to build big rockets like Proton and Soyuz! We have some advantages and disadvantages over you, but if we join forces, everything is possible!"

Speaking of which, the noise in the playground just now suddenly gradually quieted down.

Zhang Guitian and Amba Chumiyan looked for prestige, and an old man wearing a simple half-sleeved white shirt was slowly walking over from the direction of the factory gate.

He has big fan-like ears, sharp eyes and a huge head, and he doesn't seem to walk fast, but his every move is full of Tarzan-like heaviness.

Wherever he goes, the sound is silent. The Chinese present straightened their backs, and even the Soviets felt an incomparable pressure.

"Comrades, I really didn't expect to be able to preside over such a project while I could still work. ”

"At this moment, in this courtyard, almost more than half of our academic elites in China's aerospace industry are located. ”

"I'm so happy to see you grow!"

The visitor patted the shoulder of the "young man" next to him, looked at the other people in the distance, and unconsciously smiled. And seeing his smile, almost all the Chinese present showed a look of honor.

"Zhang, who is this man? He seems to be respected by you. ”

"Of course. ”

Zhang Guitian also unconsciously straightened his waist and widened his eyes.

"Because he is our ancestor and the founder of our scientific research in New China!"

"He's Qian Lao!"
