Chapter 439: Successful Launch
The unbridled laughter of the two finally attracted the first few people to stop, and when they turned around and saw Xu Ziling coming, Lin Jianbin wanted to run over, but when he looked at Liu Xin, he was a little reluctant and embarrassed.
He has such an expression, Xu Ziling can't see clearly due to the distance, but he can't hide it from Yang Ruolan next to him, Xu Ziling's group of friends, is Xu Ziling's youngest, on weekdays in private, everyone takes a lot of care about him, and as Xu Ziling's girlfriend, everyone treats her very well, looking at Lin Jianbin's obvious performance today, how could she not understand what he meant? So I had the idea of helping him.
"Leave him alone, we'll go ours."
Since he fell in love with Liu Xin at first sight, Yang Ruolan was of course willing to match them, so she opened her mouth to help him solve this dilemma.
Although Xu Ziling was a little pitiful for his future, he was still happy to hear about this matter, and when he stepped forward, he pulled Yang Ruolan aside, saying that he had something to say to him, leaving Liu Xin and Lin Jianbin and walking forward, and Lao Wang, who came over, saw Xu Ziling's actions, of course, he immediately knew what he meant, and regardless of Xu Ziling's excuses, he followed the two of them directly, and also accelerated his pace and went forward, without looking at Lin Jianbin .
Although Lin Jianbin doesn't have a girlfriend, he is not a junior brother anymore, seeing a few people like this, where do you not know that Lu Dao is creating opportunities for him? When he saw Liu Xin yesterday, he felt that he was shot by Cupid's arrow, so he found an excuse to drag him back to Star City, and found an excuse early in the morning to pull Yang Ruolan out, just to be able to know more about Liu Xin, and now that he finally has the opportunity to get along alone, where will he not grasp it?
Xu Ziling They did it so obviously, and Liu Xin had felt Lin Jianbin look strange when he looked at him since yesterday, and of course he understood what was going on. She is not rejecting the matter of falling in love, and yesterday she saw Lin Jianbin appear in such a stylish way, she can't deny that her inner impression of him is not bad.
There are a lot of people chasing her, but as soon as they met, they followed her with such a dead face, she really saw it for the first time, and at the same time, she felt a little novel in her heart, so she didn't walk away with a cold face at this time.
Of course, Xu Ziling and the others don't care what happens to the two of them, the opportunity is created for them, whether they can grasp it can only depend on their own, and the rest is just waiting to watch the play, so the three of them walked in front, while chatting, they also paid attention to the two people behind from time to time.
In the end, how did the two communicate, Xu Ziling and they didn't ask, they went shopping for another day the next day, and it was time for the satellite launch on the third day.
The scheduled time was three o'clock in the afternoon, but early in the morning, the base was lively, the assembly workshop, the satellite was loaded on the rocket, the rocket was repeatedly checked, communication test, remote sensing signal test, observation satellite test, all kinds of preparations made the whole base busy all morning.
After lunch, after everyone rested for a while, they immediately plunged into intense work, and the first thing to do, of course, was to move the prepared rocket from the assembly workshop to the launch stand.
The launch manned spacecraft seen on different TVs, this time because it is a small satellite, the rocket is also a small rocket, compared with the behemoth rockets seen in the past, small rockets can really only be regarded as miniature types. Of course, if you compare it with people, it can still be regarded as very big.
The ready-to-go rocket is fixed on the mobile platform, comes out of the assembly workshop, slowly moves along the two tracks to the launch stand, and then begins to refuel the rocket, and the relevant staff do the best inspection before launch.
Xu Ziling and the others had never seen the scene of the rocket launch with their own eyes, and they were a little curious, so in order to watch it from a closer distance, they did not choose to be inside the command hall, but ran outside and stood at the closest safe distance from the launch frame.
Standing there and waiting, each took a pair of binoculars, and watched the staff of the launch rack busy, and a few people didn't think that time was passing too fast, when they heard the order to clear the field from the walkie-talkie, followed by the countdown of the last minute.

……
A minute passed quickly, the order to ignite in the command hall was issued, and several people were far away from the launcher, and they all heard the huge roar of the rocket, and at the same time, a huge tongue of fire erupted from the tail of the rocket, and then the rocket began to take off into the air, and the speed became faster and faster, and soon disappeared from sight.
"That's it?"
It hadn't been a minute before and after, and the rocket that was still standing on the launch pad just now was gone, Lin Jianbin smacked his tongue, and his face was still unfinished.
"What more do you want? Do you want the rocket to stop and let you see enough? ”
Listening to his self-talk, Liu Xin stabbed him coldly next to him, which immediately made him speechless.
And Xu Ziling and the others looked at the two of them, laughing in their hearts, all of them as if they hadn't seen or heard, turned around and walked towards the command hall.
……
Entering the building, as soon as he came to the outside of the command hall, Xu Ziling heard various reports coming from inside, all of which were observation reports from various observation stations.
Sitting in the back position, several people did not speak, just watched quietly, and I don't know how long it has passed, and the observation station finally came to the report of "entering the predetermined orbit", hearing this voice, everyone in the audience stopped what they were doing, stood up and applauded. Seeing this situation, Xu Ziling and those who were not familiar with the launch procedure understood that this was a successful satellite launch.
Of course, Xu Ziling didn't care about this, he was concerned about the "Eagle Eye" system, and after talking to Yang Ruolan, he ran to the front, came to Professor Xie and asked him, "Professor Xie, the satellite is in orbit, can it work immediately?" ”
Professor Xie didn't care about Xu Ziling in the past two days, in fact, he was quite complaining, but now that the satellite was successfully launched, he was happy in his heart, so he didn't remember this, and said to Xu Ziling with a smile: "When the satellite reaches orbit, first the main body will start working, and then the communication unit will work, and it will take about twenty minutes." ”
"Oh, thank you!"
got the answer he wanted, Xu Ziling didn't have any intention of chatting more, and immediately ran back to the position just now, called Yang Ruolan and them together, and went out of the command hall.
"Would you like to go ahead and shop? I'm waiting for something and I can't accompany you. Out of the command hall, Xu Ziling asked a few people.
Several people looked at each other and shook their heads, and Yang Ruolan said, "I won't go out today, why don't we go to the café below?" ”
There are more than 1,000 people in the base, deep in the desert, there must be a place for entertainment and leisure, Yang Ruolan said that the café is also a kind of welfare for the employees of the base, in the past two days, she and Liu Xin have been there once, and I think it is still very good to sit in it and chat, and now since everyone doesn't want to go out to shop, she suggests going there to sit for a while.
It's okay to go back now, so everyone has no objection, seeing that they have decided, Xu Ziling remembered that all he had to do was to test whether the "Eagle Eye" could be used, even if it was placed in front of others, he didn't necessarily know what he was doing, so he said: "Okay, you go first, I'll go back to the room and get a computer, and I'll come down to find you immediately." ”
The computer was a new one given by Director Cao when he was doing things two days ago, and it was stored in the system he wrote down that day, and it was separated downstairs, Xu Ziling went back to the room, and after getting the computer, he immediately went downstairs again, to; went to a café not far from here to find Yang Ruolan and them.
Because of the satellite launch, there are only a few people on duty in the café, which is extraordinarily quiet, the base is not big, it is not small, but Xu Ziling and his party have two extremely beautiful girls, and there are high-level officials of the base to accompany them, so the people in the café also know that there is such a group of people from the base, and when they see a few people entering, they immediately warmly entertain them.
Xu Ziling arrived at the café, Yang Ruolan and the others were already tasting coffee there, seeing that there was still some time before twenty minutes, Xu Ziling also drank the coffee that Yang Ruolan ordered for him, while waiting for the time to come.
Several people are familiar with his virtues, looking at him holding a computer, they say theirs, they don't care about him, and Xu Ziling didn't finish a cup of coffee, and the time of twenty minutes was up, and he didn't taboo a few people, he turned on the computer on the table and entered the system that had been done before.
Because it is an experimental version, the system does not set any password, the system program opens, and it directly shows that it is connecting, looking at the system status, Xu Ziling is a little nervous, for fear that something will appear.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, there was still no movement on the screen, so he was a little anxious, he had done many times for satellite access, and each time it took a few seconds to enter, but this time it was more than ten seconds, why can't he connect?
"Don't worry, I can't connect here, it should be the satellite that is turned on, and it is being initialized."
The lion felt the worry in his heart and hurriedly comforted him.
"Hmm."
This does make sense, Xu Ziling immediately relaxed a little and responded in his mind, but his eyes were still fixed on the screen.
Almost a minute passed, and desperately the above was still showing that it was connecting, seeing this, Xu Ziling couldn't wait, and immediately made a phone call to Director Cao, "Director Cao, are you with Professor Xie?" …… Oh...... Then you can help me ask, is the satellite already working now? …… The system is booting up? Right away? Good...... Good ......"
"I'll just say you're in a hurry, you think he said twenty minutes, that's exactly twenty minutes." As soon as the phone hung up, the lion said to Xu Ziling angrily.
"Isn't this the first time I've encountered this!" Xu Ziling also felt that he was a little too anxious now, and smiled at the lion in a wry manner.
