Chapter 288: Baicheng Weapons Test Center
For the copyright of the science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem", Yang Lin was already salivating as early as when Matrix Film and Television was first established.
The influence of "The Three-Body Problem" in China's science fiction industry is undoubted, and with the spread of word of mouth, this novel is not only limited to science fiction lovers, but also attracts the attention of students, white-collar workers and Internet industry practitioners.
In particular, Lei Jun, a bigwig in the science and technology industry, and Zhou Hongyi, the founder of 360, mentioned "The Three-Body Problem" one after another when talking about the company's development, which added fuel to the fire of this novel.
Of course, there is no doubt about the excellence of "The Three-Body Problem".
First of all, in terms of imagination and ideas, "The Three-Body Problem" can be regarded as the top in the history of world science fiction.
Science fiction was originally called idea literature, and a good idea can hold up the whole story (e.g., the Three Laws of Robotics in Asimov's Robot series, and the psychohistory of the Base series).
And the three-body trilogy has countless classic ideas that have been blinded, such as the constant era and chaotic era of the three-body world that appeared in the first part; The Dark Forest Theory in Part 2 (You can say that this theory is not rigorous, but to be honest, which science fiction dares to say that it is truly rigorous?) The Dark Forest Theory, as a "theory in science fiction", is able to explain the development of the story and provoke the reader to think, which is enough), water droplets, wall facing plans, and wall breakers; The third part is full of all kinds of amazing ideas, the sword bearer, the four-dimensional space, the black domain, the dimensionality reduction strike, the mapping of the three fairy tales and the real world...... So much so that when Yang Lin read it at the time, he was almost shocked: Liu Cixin, are you going to let other science fiction writers change careers? How will others write after writing everything down!
And in terms of the scale of the story, the three-body problem is also extremely magnificent, and the time span is derived from the buzzing period to tens of millions of years later. It's almost a history of the future.
The first is on Earth, and the second rises to the collision between two civilizations. The third part reaches the height of the entire universe and has a grand worldview. It is extremely rare in the history of science fiction literature in the world.
When Yang Lin was preparing to establish Matrix Film and Television, he had the intention to pocket the film copyright of "The Three-Body Problem".
It's a pity that at that time, Yang Lin heard that Zhang Fanfan, the holder of the copyright of "Three-Body Problem", had reached an agreement with Youzu Pictures, and Zhang Fanfan asked him to shoot "Three-Body Problem" by himself, so Yang Lin did not continue to force it.
After all, at that time, Matrix Pictures was still in the initial stage, and a "Return of the Great Sage" was still not enough, let alone a big production like "The Three-Body Problem".
Who would have thought that such an opportunity suddenly appeared now, Zhang Fanfan actually came to the door.
Although it is not yet known what the outcome of the negotiation will be, Yang Lin is determined to win the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem".
This is not only Yang Lin's dream as a book lover, but more importantly. In Yang Lin's view, no domestic film and television company has the strength to shoot "The Three-Body Problem", and even Hollywood is enough. Only with the CG technology of the brain matrix system can he perfectly restore the amazing scenes in "The Three-Body Problem".
The copyright negotiation of "The Three-Body Problem" is going very slowly, Zhang Fanfan, who holds the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem", wants to wait for the price between several companies, the experienced Gao Junru does not show a particularly impatient mentality, and Yang Lin does not urge, anyway, whether it is Youzu or Ali Pictures, it is impossible to give the conditions of matrix film and television.
……
A month is fleeting. The copyright negotiations for "The Three-Body Problem" are in full swing, and the day of Yang Lin and Han Rushan's appointment is gradually coming.
"Mr. Yang, how are you thinking about it?"
Han Rushan sat opposite Yang Lin with a teacup, took a sip of tea and smiled.
After a month of deliberation. Yang Lin already had a draft in his heart, and said with a smile: "Minister Han, Transwarp Technology can increase its capital in Feilong Airlines." And provide technical support for the Darksaber drone project, but I have two conditions! ”
Han Rushan was slightly stunned: "What conditions?" ”
Yang Lin said: "First. I hope that the Darksaber project will be led by Wyvern Aviation, and the military will propose technical standards. I made it happen, and of course, some necessary technical support also hoped that AVIC could cooperate. Second, presumably Minister Han should know that we just acquired DJI not long ago, and I wonder if the military is interested in micro-drones? ”
"Micro drones?"
"That's right! It is a tactical UAV mainly used for reconnaissance at the company and platoon level of the army troops, with an intelligent flight system installed inside, and some independent combat capabilities! ”
Han Rushan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Yang Lin thoughtfully and said: "Mr. Yang, I can't guarantee this, but if DJI is willing to provide drone samples, I can help you match for operational evaluation, as for whether you can enter the army in the end, I don't dare to guarantee this!" ”
Yang Lin got up and stretched out his hand with a smile and said, "Minister Han, just have your words, then I hope we will have a happy cooperation in the future!" ”
"Happy working together!"
After Han Rushan left, Yang Lin immediately called Wang Tao of DJI to tell the other party the news and ask him to prepare accordingly.
As early as a few months ago, when Wang Tao proposed that DJI Technology would enter the military market, Yang Lin asked him to improve a miniature tactical drone suitable for the army on the basis of the existing UAV, and provide an intelligent operating system by himself.
Wang Tao has always kept this matter in mind, you must know that although the micro UAV belongs to the company-platoon level tactical UAV, once it is adopted by the military on a large scale, the profit will be great.
According to the calculation that the whole army is equipped with 20,000 tactical drones, the average price of each is about 500,000 yuan, which is a market of 10 billion yuan, and this market is exclusive to DJI, and there are no competitors at all, let alone the political significance.
Therefore, Wang Tao was naturally overjoyed.
A week later, Wang Tao and Yang Lin secretly arrived in Zhaonan City in the northeast with twelve tactical drones, where the famous Baicheng Weapons Test Center is located.
The Baicheng Ordnance Test Center is the earliest and largest conventional weapons testing range established in China, and is the state's authoritative institution for conducting appraisal and finalization tests of conventional weapons. The vast majority of China's existing conventional weapons and equipment have been tested and finalized here and then installed in the troops.
In particular, after entering the 21st century, the test center for the first time applied computer simulation technology, test and identification technology under anti-jamming conditions, and software testing technology in conventional weapon tests, and successfully carried out the design and finalization of China's anti-tank missile weapon system. By constructing a new concept of quantitative evaluation of system efficiency function, the worldwide technical problem of secondary ballistic test and test of submunition under free conditions has been broken, and China has reached the international leading level in this field of testing.
