Looking at the large verdant area in the northeast of the outer part of the map, Lin Yuan couldn't help but think of Chekov's famous words: "I have no way to describe a beautiful scenery like the banks of the Amur River, and I can only give in in to such a scene." "The Amur River is the Heilongjiang River.

This region is extremely rich in resources, first of all, forest resources, the entire 9.6 million square kilometers of China has only 1 million square meters of forests, while the 1 million square kilometers of the outer northeast region has 700,000 square meters of forests; The second is mineral resources, which have a large amount of iron ore, coal and other minerals necessary for the metallurgical industry, and a large amount of oil and gas resources in the sea near Sakhalin. Then there are the agricultural resources, and the Chinese have all heard the story of the Great Northern Wilderness becoming the Great Northern Warehouse, and the Outer Northeast has the richest black soil belt on the planet, to use a Jewish saying: "This is a land flowing with milk and honey." ”

And most importantly: gold! Since Russia began mining gold in the Outer Northeast, the annual production has exceeded 2,000 tons, while China, in 1995, produced no more than a pitiful 500 tons.

The role of gold in international trade is self-evident, with gold, you can buy commodities in all parts of the world, with gold, you can use the gold standard system to issue currency, the so-called gold standard system, that is, the currency issuance is linked to the amount of gold storage, such a currency, can be used as a settlement currency in the world trade, and so on this currency has been used in the whole world, difficult to replace, you can cancel the gold standard system, at that time, only need to print money, You can put the wealth of the whole world into your pocket!

Lin Yuan stood up and paced around the room. In the 21st century, Americans have done just that, using advanced science and technology to send the dollar to the status of the world's currency, and when the United States needs money, it will issue treasury bonds, so that the blood and sweat of ordinary people in other countries will invisibly become a source of their enjoyment!

"We also want to put our currency on the status of the world's currency! Only by occupying the commanding heights of finance can our nation be in an invincible situation forever! When Lin Yuan thought of this, he couldn't help but feel excited, but he didn't come from a background in economics, and he couldn't think clearly about many of the joints in it for a while, but despite this, he also knew how difficult and long this process would be.

However, the predicament in front of him is like a big basin of cold water, pouring heavily on his heart, with the current strength of the Beijing ship, it is far from enough to take over the Outer Northeast region, and it is indeed difficult to develop his own industry.

At this time, Lin Yuan looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, and he would invite the scientists and engineers on the ship to participate in the symposium.

As mentioned earlier, the Beijing ship is going to sea to carry out a test mission, so there are more than a dozen scientists and engineers on board, and there are more than a dozen academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

At the beginning of the meeting, Lin Yuan said: "Hello experts, professors, now is the time for everyone to show their talents, let me talk about our current predicament first." Then Lin Yuan turned on the projector and began to speak with the help of slides: "We are currently in the 19th century, the industrial level of this era, I believe you know better than me." Our Beijing ship has just carried out a base internal maintenance before crossing, because our aircraft carrier design and manufacturing level is relatively high, so the time interval between the two base internal maintenance is also relatively long, reaching 40 months, other crew level maintenance and relay level maintenance, because our aircraft carrier has its own maintenance workshop and maintenance equipment, most of the small and medium-sized faults can be dealt with, so the daily maintenance of the aircraft carrier is not much of a problem. ”

Lin Yuan looked at them for a moment and continued: "Our real dilemma is: a lot of our equipment can not be replenished, taking our carrier-based aircraft as an example, we all know that the carrier-based aircraft is the core of the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier, and the fuel and lubricating oil required by the carrier-based aircraft cannot be refined at all in this era, and there are missiles, bombs, and cannon shells, which cannot be supplemented. ”

"Without the engine, the plane can't take off. The working conditions of aero engines are extremely harsh, most of the components work in the environment of high temperature, high pressure and high load, our J-24 aircraft uses a turbofan 30 engine, the pre-turbine temperature of this type of engine has reached 2100K, such a temperature will produce great thermal stress in the turbine blades, coupled with high gas load, centrifugal load, the blades are prone to cracks, and the crack propagation speed is also very fast. ”

"As we all know, turbine blades must not be touched by hand after processing, because the salt in the sweat on the hands will accelerate the corrosion of the blades. The salt content at sea is greater, so the life of the blades will be shorter than that used by roadbed fighters, so it is very likely that our aircraft will not be able to take off due to engine problems in the future. ”

At this time, a gray-haired old man spoke: "What's the use of saying this? Are you counting on the turbine blades we can build now? There are no doors! What are the first and second stage blades used for the turbofan 30? Nickel-based alloys! This kind of material, our research group with the support of the special fund of the State Council, has been working for ten years, during which almost all the universities, research institutes, and factories in the country have given us assistance. ”

Lin Yuan saw that the person who spoke was Su Zhengming, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, one of the oldest and most capable materials science experts in China, and many of the middle-aged experts were his students, so he was inevitably a little arrogant when he spoke.

Lin Yuan knew that this Su Zhengming was extremely enthusiastic, but his words were a little ugly, so he didn't care, and said: "What Su Lao said is right, we really can't make such materials now. ”

Su Zhengming said: "We are not only not able to get this material now, we can't get other materials, I will give an example of a bearing, I went to see the oil spectral analysis of the high-pressure rotor accessories, the content of iron in it exceeds the standard by more than ten percentage points, indicating that the bearing has suffered a lot of wear, what material is used for the bearing, iron-tin alloy, this material is much better than nickel-based alloy, but can we make it?" ”

Lubricating oil spectroscopic analysis is: because the lubricating oil has to flow through the bearing, so that if the bearing is excessively worn, the iron element in the bearing will enter the lubricating oil, and then the lubricating oil is spectrally analyzed to determine the content of the iron element, and the degree of wear of the bearing can be analyzed.

Lin Yuan said: "Of course, of course, we can't get these materials out now, we can come step by step, I think what we have to do now is to first set the most basic things for industrial development." ”

Su Zhengming nodded and said: "You are very right, I think the most basic thing is the measurement of the basic units in our physics: for example, how much distance is a meter, how long is a second, there is an old saying: 'Those who do not seek the world are not enough to seek a domain.'" If these problems are not solved, they will definitely bring trouble to the long-term development in the future. ”

Lin Yuan knew Su Zhengming's character, the more you worked for him, the happier he was, because he thought it was your trust in him, so Lin Yuan said: "Then Su Lao, since you brought this matter up, then you should take it personally, okay?" ”

Su Zhengming didn't even think about it and said, "Don't worry, no problem." ”

Lin Yuan nodded and said: "The next question, the problem of standardization, we all know that the reason why modern industrial production can be carried out, standardization is a very critical step, at this point, we have a lot of national standards, these standards can be directly applied, and there are some industry standards, because our current environment is different, in specific practice, and then step by step analysis and improvement." ”

Everyone present nodded, and Lin Yuan said: "Then let's discuss, which specific industry should we develop first?" ”
