"Duke, what are we going to do with this new submarine renovation business that has been reassembled from the final assembly?" After getting the submarine modification order directly issued by the general assembly, Dong Feng's head was big, and he found Duke with a bitter face.

Since the establishment of DSM, the only military products that can be delivered and used independently are tanks and unmanned aerial vehicles, although the general assembly later gave DSM a license for the development of weapons of various branches of the navy, land and air force, the scope of products developed and produced by DSM has only expanded to electronic warfare systems, radar systems and aircraft engines, which are independent subsystems.

Therefore, in the navy, DSM has always mainly provided electronic warfare systems and radar products for surface ships, and suddenly a large order for submarine transformation appeared, although the budget seems to be more than 405 billion yuan, but this money Dong Feng feels very handy.

You must know that DSM is not a leisurely department now, and there is almost no idle time for various R&D teams, and suddenly such a big order in an unfamiliar field pops up, Dong Feng will not worry about funds, but the pressure on manpower is extremely huge, so Dong Feng naturally feels a headache.

The ins and outs of this order Dong Feng quickly figured it out from Duke's mouth, but Dong Feng couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, and he didn't know whether to complain or praise Duke for being too capable.

It's just that Dong Feng has no idea what to do with this transformation work, so he can only push this matter on Duke.

"What else can I do, find someone to build a team to do things, do you want me to do so many things alone? You can rest assured that you don't have to worry about funds, and you don't have to worry about talents, they are all formed now. Duke said angrily, he was also very upset about the incident that the Navy had made. If it weren't for the Navy's initiative to concentrate the technical forces of its submarine research institutes on Duke, Duke would definitely reject this new project of the final assembly.

What are you kidding, the submarine is no more than an ordinary product, and it is impossible for Duke to get much useful technical accumulation from open channels, in this case, if he is asked to do it from scratch, although it is not completely impossible to do it, but it will take Duke a lot of time to explore with the technical team.

Now Duke has finally put the Shenlong Project into a good state of running the project team on its own, and has taken time out to build and improve the interstellar ultra-long-range communication center proposed by Billem, where is there much free time to do this.

After Duke finished speaking, he took out the encrypted tablet for note-taking and transmitted the list of responsible areas and persons in charge of the submarine research departments of the entire Navy to Dong Feng, "You go to these departments to coordinate, find a group of top experts in all aspects to first set up an overall expert group, let this expert come up with a transformation needs and overall plan with the Navy, and then according to these needs and plans, to mobilize the required manpower."

At the same time, we will also transfer a group of electronic warfare system research and development personnel and battery researchers, and then together with the personnel drawn from these research departments, we will form this transformation project team. ”

Since the Navy has agreed to Duke to mobilize the manpower and material resources of his subordinate submarine research department, Duke is not polite. He is ready to hand over all the professional things of submarines to these professionals engaged in submarine research, and DSM is taking on the role of general contractor this time, mainly integrating its core products and technologies into submarines.

"Duke, I know you kid always have ideas, so I don't have to be blind." Dong Feng saw that Duke had already prepared, and his face immediately changed from cloudy to sunny. Hold your own tablet to receive the interface unit information given by Duke.

"Damn, with so many units, how do I know who to look for first and then who to find?" However, as soon as Dong Feng opened the document provided to him by Duke, and saw the long list of institutions and responsible persons on it, his face immediately changed, more than 100 research units related to submarines, and the introduction alone was more than 100 pages! Just looking at it, I saw that Dong Feng's scalp was a little numb,

"Go, you can't do this thing, you might as well go home and nurse the baby." Duke has no sympathy for Dong Feng's complaints, although this matter is cumbersome, but Dong Feng is now the boss of a company with tens of billions of dollars, and there are thousands of people under him, how can he not do this, this kid just wants to be lazy, Duke is not used to his problem.

"If someone refuses your invitation and doesn't cooperate with your work, you can come to me again, and you will arrange and handle the rest." Duke instructed, "But you can't lose them in terms of price when you ask people to do things, and this is the first time we are the general contractor of the Navy, so don't smash our DSM signboard." ”

"Yes, Boss Du" Dong Feng exclaimed, he actually said that, of course he knew that these things were within his own share, Duke's time was more expensive than anything else, even if Duke Ken took the time to do these trivial things, Dong Feng refused to let Duke do these things that most people can do, and no matter how he said it, this order will fall hundreds of millions of revenues, although the profit margin of ten percent is definitely an extremely generous small profit for the military industry.

Compared with the complex management structure of most companies, the efficiency of Duke and Dong Feng's authoritative leadership style is completely beyond their imagination, and there is no such bullshit in the middle of this kind of bullshit happening, in DSM company, other vice presidents and functional departments only need to do things according to the instructions of the two people.

After handing over the list to Dong Feng, for Duke, most of the work in this matter is completed, and the rest of the work is mainly done by the Qianlong project team in the future, and the overall expert group will be Duke's expert team to deal with technical problems, and only extremely difficult problems will be submitted to Duke, just like the Shenlong Project, Duke is the top person in charge, and what needs to be completed is, of course, a major technological breakthrough that the people below really can't complete.

Originally, Duke was worried that he would encounter some obstacles in mobilizing manpower, but Duke did not expect it.

Being able to work on a project with a genius like Dr. Duke is an extremely rare opportunity for most researchers, and although everyone knows that they may not see Duke in the whole project, it is still a memory that can make their memoirs worthy of being written, if they are old enough to write memoirs.

Therefore, when the research departments of the Navy submarine were dispatched to form the Qianlong team, no matter which expert Dong Feng named and wanted, they were all given the green light all the way, and the formation of this super team of thousands of researchers was quickly completed.

Of course, in this work, in addition to borrowing Duke's great name, DSM in the same cooperative units, the reputation of the bold shot is also an important factor, in this cooperation with DSM research and development institutions, there are many in fact are more difficult Shimizu Yamen, especially the affiliated research units that do not have a complete set of product research and development, and the benefits are quite average. Participating in this big project is a great opportunity to improve their R&D environment, and DSM has a penchant for improving the R&D office conditions of its partners almost at any cost.

"To create the best working environment for everyone, so that everyone can work with the fullest spirit" is Duke's proposition and philosophy, from the past experience, Duke's concept for its various R&D teams, greatly improve the efficiency of R&D, shorten the progress of R&D.

With such a human foundation, Duke's hidden dragon plan was quickly launched. The most important thing in this renovation work is to update the reserve power supply system and combat system of conventional submarines, which may sound relatively simple, but in fact there are too many things to move.

Because the combat system involves almost all the electronic systems on the submarine, whether it is the detection system, the fire control system, or the communication system, the navy wants to take this opportunity to carry out a major update, develop all the potential of these submarines for more than 10 or 20 years, and let these submarines support the navy through the transition to nuclear submarines.

The Navy has made good use of the theater joint operations system developed by Duke for the Air Force and the Army, and the most important of these is the upgrading of the China Aegis and the integration of the newly acquired Aegis and the theater joint operations system, which has enabled the Navy's surface ships to achieve great development by leaps and bounds, and greatly enhanced the combat capability of the Navy's surface ships.

However, the Navy has not been able to extend this improvement to submarines that bear the main attack power of the Navy. Because of the special combat environment of submarines, their detection methods, communication methods, and combat methods are too different from those of other services, and the difficulty of improving their electronic combat systems is the most difficult among all branches of the armed forces, so the progress of its improvement is also the latest among all branches of the armed forces.

Because there is a key factor that cannot be overcome on the submarine in Duke's theater joint combat tactical system, that is, this combat system requires great communication capabilities to support the exchange of large amounts of data. In this regard, the existing inefficient underwater communication system of submarines cannot do this. Because even the electromagnetic wave communication that Duke is familiar with, for the submarine, as long as it dives below 300 meters, it is almost useless, and the long-wave communication system on the submarine can only have the function of receiving under the water, but cannot interact, so it cannot effectively support the large amount of data exchange required by the joint combat system.
