Chapter 537 Gas Turbine Sea Trials

Hearing the words of the father of hybrid rice, Ye Chen's eyes were as hot as the sun. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The data obtained from the mice can completely confirm the two basic characteristics of higher level life, a stronger body and a more powerful intelligence. These two characteristics are particularly important and useful for human beings.

"It's especially useful for us to have a stronger body. Our country is already starting an asteroid mining program, and it won't be long before it can be implemented. At that time, it is especially useful for astronauts to have a strong body. Old Xu's eyes lit up and said happily.

The mining of asteroids is a plan that our country is about to put into practice, and it is a complement to the lunar development program. This requires not only advanced equipment, but also astronauts to operate. Think about it, in space, the temperature difference is huge, and if the astronaut has a strong body, it will be much more convenient.

"Also, our country is about to start the development of the moon, and there will be a lot of people who will send it to the moon. If you have a stronger body, it will greatly reduce the difficulty of lunar development. Ye Chen took over the conversation.

The lunar development program is our country's medium-term space program, which aims to obtain abundant resources on the moon. Helium-3, in particular, is even more tempting and is one of the main purposes of the Celestial Empire's lunar development program. Once the Celestial Empire obtains a large amount of helium-3, the Celestial Empire will no longer have to worry about energy shortages, and we will have an inexhaustible supply of energy.

It is also possible to develop a nuclear fusion engine as a power for spacecraft to go into space and enter planets such as Mars.

To achieve this goal, it is inevitable to send a large number of people to work on the moon. How to protect these people becomes a big problem. If the human body is stronger, the technical requirements for protection will be reduced, and the overall lunar development program will be less difficult.

It's a wonderful prospect, it's dizzying.

"Besides, it's even more intricate when it comes to improving intelligence. If the scientists of our country strengthen and improve their intelligence, the consequences will be beautiful when you think about it. Zhuang Lao was also full of emotion.

Although there are many criticisms of our country's education abroad, thinking that our country's education is not good in this way, and that is not good. Yes, there is really a big problem with education in our country, the mass production of test-taking machines. However, there are also many outstanding scientists in our country, who said that our country has a large population base and is the most populous country in the world?

With such a huge population base, will there still be a group of excellent scientists?

It is precisely because our country has such a group of extremely outstanding scientists that our country has been able to complete the "two bombs and one satellite" project and create miracles under such difficult conditions.

Moreover, the number of outstanding scientists in our country is definitely not small, and this is the advantage of a large population.

Don't say that all scientists, just let these excellent scientists strengthen and improve their intelligence, how terrible will the consequences be?

These excellent scientists have already achieved a lot, and after their intellectual improvement, can they still make even greater contributions?

It is completely conceivable that what humans cannot do at this stage, they are completely capable of doing. By that time, quantum computers, spaceships, will most likely cease to be the stuff of science fiction, but become reality.

The beauty of this prospect far outweighs the physical strength that will give our country a technological blowout.

"Haha!" Thinking of this wonderful result, everyone couldn't help but let out a burst of cheerful laughter.

"Therefore, whether it is from the perspective of scientific research or from the perspective of contributing to the country, we must continue to carry out research." The father of hybrid rice said with a resolute face.

"That's right." The crowd was happy to support it.

After being happy for a while, Chief Master Lei said: "Xiao Ye, this matter is over, isn't it time for the gas turbine to conduct a sea trial?" ”

"Okay." Ye Chen slapped his forehead, his face full of joy.

"It's long past the time for gas turbine trials, and if you hadn't been able to do it, you would have done it a long time ago." Chief Master Lei stroked his forehead and said.

"Aren't you happy and don't want to leave?" Ye Chen revealed the short.

Ye Chen and the others were busy researching super rice during this time, and after achieving results, they wanted to further verify it, so they were so focused on this matter that they didn't have the heart to go to the sea trial.

Who called the attraction of super rice too strong?

Even Chief Engineer Lei, who was bent on an early sea trial, did not urge, and he still threw himself on this matter, as if he had forgotten about the sea trial.

Now that the Super Rice thing is over, it's time for a sea trial.

Report the matter to the authorities, and the above will quickly approve it, and the sea trial will be carried out tomorrow.

In the evening, Admiral Luo and Guo Zifan rushed over.

Admiral Luo is the chief officer of the Navy, Guo Zifan is the head of the Navy's equipment, and the gas turbine is on trial, and they will inevitably come. Especially Admiral Luo, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't be able to sleep.

Admiral Luo has personally experienced the whole process of our country's navy from weak to strong, and knows very well how difficult it is for the navy to get to this point. Now, the state-of-the-art gas turbine trials, can he not come?

The next day, Ye Chen and the others came to the riverside port. This port is built by future concept science and technology, and is prepared for the future concept technology large-scale transportation. I don't need it yet, but I believe it won't be long before I use it.

If this trial is successful, gas turbines will be produced, which will require a port.

There is a warship moored in the harbor, 5,000 tons, which is equivalent to a behemoth in terms of inland waterways. This is a brand-new warship, which was built from the shipyard and specially allocated to Ye Chen for their sea trials.

"It is said that the 5,000-ton ship cannot meet the needs of our country, and you are more interested in the 10,000-ton ship, is it true?" Ye Chen asked Admiral Luo.

Friends who pay attention to the news must have found many such reports, saying that the appetite of the navy is getting better and better, and the interest in warships of 35,000 tons is getting smaller and smaller, and now the interest in large ships of 10,000 tons is getting stronger and stronger. Ye Chen had already heard a lot of rumors in this regard, but he had not confirmed it.

"5,000-ton warships will still be useful for some time to come, that's for sure. However, with the progress of our country's navy, it is difficult for warships of 5,000 tons or less to meet the needs of our country. Admiral Luo nodded, explained to Ye Chen, and said, "Xiao Ye, you are also a military fan, and you know that our country is building a blue water navy, and you want to go to the deep blue." What our country wants is an invincible fleet capable of crisscrossing the ocean, and this is indispensable for large ships, and a 10,000-ton ship is the best choice. ”

Ye Chen deeply agreed with this statement.

The warships of the modern navy are getting bigger and bigger. In the case of aircraft carriers, for example, the tonnage is getting bigger and bigger, and the tonnage of the warships supporting them is also getting bigger. Our country's maritime strategy is ambitious, and what we need is a navy that can be invincible, and large ships are an inevitable trend.

"I deeply appreciate our country's maritime strategy. However, I have a little regret. Ye Chen said with emotion.

"Regret what?" Admiral Luo asked.

"Chief, you also know that our new gas turbine is very powerful, and you only sent a warship of 5,000 tons, I think it will be difficult to exert its true power." Ye Chen said.

The performance of the gas turbine is excellent, and the power is so strong that it is really difficult for a 5,000-ton warship to exert its full performance.

"We've also thought about it, and this is the first sea trial, and there's no need to use a 10,000-ton ship. Xiaoye, you also know that the 10,000-ton ship is still being manufactured. With your crafting skills, this will build a lot faster. Second, the Yangtze River can't pass through 10,000-ton ships, who calls it so many bridges? Admiral Luo said with regret.

As soon as he mentioned the bridges on the Yangtze River, Ye Chen had a lot of opinions, and said: "Those bridges on the Yangtze River used to be a help, but now they have become shackles, locking the capacity of the Yangtze River. Ships of more than five thousand tons are difficult to get in. If there were no bridges, even 10,000-ton ships would have been able to come in. ”

"That's true. In fact, the predecessors made a mistake and did not take into account the later economic development. When the Yangtze River Bridge was built, who would have thought that a few decades later, our country's economy would develop like this, and those bridges would become shackles. Admiral Luo also agreed with Ye Chen's words.

"I'm wondering if we're going to tear down these bridges and rebuild them." Ye Chen's words were amazing.

Admiral Luo was taken aback, and his voice was an octave higher in the air: "You really dare to think about it." Do you know how many bridges there are on the Yangtze River? They were all built according to the Yangtze River Bridge. If you want to move the bridge, it will be a huge project, not to mention the time and effort, how big the economic loss is, do you know? ”

Later, the Yangtze River Bridge was built according to the earliest bridge, and to demolish the bridge on the Yangtze River, it would be a huge project, not to mention the cost of money, once it was demolished, the economic losses caused could not be estimated, and it would be a frightening number.

The more and more bridges on the Yangtze River are being built, because the previous bridges could not meet the needs of our country's economic development. After dismantling and rebuilding, it takes a lot of time, and how big the economic loss is, is something that everyone can imagine.

"That's not necessarily, then, maybe we can find a way that is not too expensive and has no economic loss?" Ye Chen said with a smile.

As long as the system restarts, there may be a way, Ye Chen is very confident in this.

"Really?" Admiral Luo asked expectantly.

"I just said it was possible." Ye Chen said.

"Xiao Ye, if you can, you must complete this. When this is done, there is no need to say that the benefits to our country will be fully liberated from the transportation capacity of the Yangtze River. Admiral Luo said hopefully.

Ye Chen is very magical, if he cares, maybe he can really do it. If that were the case, it would be too good for our country. The Yangtze River has been the main artery of our country's transportation since ancient times, and if the transportation capacity of the Yangtze River is fully released, it will be of great benefit to the improvement of our country's economy.

"I'm very busy right now, I'll talk about it when I'm free." If it weren't for being too busy now, Ye Chen would really want to do this.

"That's all there is to it." Admiral Law regretted it.

As the two spoke, the group boarded the warship and came to the engine room.

The gas turbine was installed in the engine room, and when they came here to take a look, Ye Chen and they were shocked.

"Is this still a computer room?" Admiral Luo's eyes almost fell.
