This time, the launch vehicle is not an ordinary item, the "Tianqing-1" carried on the rocket is worth nearly 150 billion yuan of astronomical amounts, and there is no room for the slightest difference, and any accident will lead to a complete loss of 150 billion yuan. Deputy Director Kai also pinched Han for the director who led the launch mission, and he knew very well how much pressure it would take, and what was worse was not just once, but three times.

“…… 9…… 8…… 7……”

The sound of reading the countdown sounded in the observation room, and Ren Hong, who was standing on the side, said that it was definitely impossible not to be nervous, not to mention that in case of an accident, 150 billion would be wasted like this, and the follow-up would disrupt the entire plan of the "virtual world" project, compared with the direct loss of more than 20 billion US dollars, the follow-up impact would be more fatal, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Matrix Technology.

It was because it was so important that he came to the launch center in person.

I saw Ren Hong motionless, holding one hand around his chest, covering his mouth with the other, and staring at the giant rocket under the dark night without saying a word.

“…… 2…… 1…… Ignition! ”

I saw that under the moonlit night, the launch site suddenly burst into the sky, illuminating the surrounding environment, the lake near the launch site was as horizontal as a mirror, as high as nearly 3,000 tons of take-off mass of the carrier rocket slowly lifted into the air, shaking the heavens and the earth, the calm lake surface at this moment flooded with bursts of waves.

The crowd of onlookers in the outlying areas pointed to the launch site one by one, and the launch was carried out at night, which was a rare spectacle and even more shocking, and the people in the outlying areas could feel the ensuing tremor of the earthquake.

Among the people who watched the real-time launch were some elderly people, and the people who saw this phenomenon for the first time were all surprised, and some even shouted that the "sky monkey" had flown into the sky. If Ren Hong knew it, he would probably cry and laugh, this "Sky Monkey" is worth more than 150 billion, which is equivalent to the gross domestic product of the entire Wanning City except for Matrix Technology for a year!!

The launch vehicle carries sky-high cargo in the atmosphere at high speed, and during this period, the relevant departments of the rocket force of the Republic are also dispatched to monitor the navigation trajectory of the launch vehicle throughout the process, and at the same time pay attention to all external activities, ready to deal with possible "accidental" signal interference.

The launch vehicle broke through the earth's high-altitude atmosphere after 378 seconds, and with the naked eye, it became a bright star in the sky above the moonlit night, and the bright light flickered with frequency, indicating that this was an artificial celestial body.

"My palms are sweaty." Deputy Director Kai looked at Ren Hong with a smile and said.

"It's been a hard six minutes." Ren Hong also smiled, and his words were a lot more relaxed.

Deputy Director Kai is worried about the success of the launch, and Ren Hong's concern is whether the "virtual world" will be released as scheduled. But they all unanimously sweated for "Tianqing No. 1".

"Yes, it's just torment, the 150 billion fireworks didn't appear after all, fortunately!" Deputy Director Kai joked. He added: "But only the initial launch was successful, and the next step is to send him into geosynchronous orbit, and it is far from over!" ”

At this moment, "Tianqing-1" has entered the earth's orbital platform in outer space, and will readjust its course around the earth, and will fly from 340 kilometers of low-earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit at 36,000 kilometers.

At the same time, at the headquarters of Matrix Technology in Nanwang District, the top floor of the "L" shaped building was brightly lit at the moment, and dozens of staff members were sticking to their respective posts, staring at the spotlight screen displayed in front of them, and their eyes were staring at the data on it.

Zhang Han was impressively in the ranks, he was pacing back and forth, obviously anxiously waiting for something.

At this moment, an excited voice resounded throughout the audience, and an employee staring at the screen shouted excitedly: "It's successful!" It worked! Tianqing-1 has entered the orbital platform and is currently adjusting and formulating a new channel, which is expected to leave the established channel in 156 minutes and enter the scheduled synchronous orbit in 278 minutes. ”

The excited voice made the audience enter a state of excitement, and suddenly there was a burst of applause, many young employees were shouting in celebration, Zhang Han, who had always been nervous, finally stopped his seemingly urgent steps, and said to the employees in the audience: "The big guys are cheering up, after 315.7 minutes, the Wenchang command center will hand over the 'Tianqing No. 1' to us, prepare the handover matters, and ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

These few hours are undoubtedly like years, everyone stares at the slow beating of the hands of the clock, watching the slow beating of the hands is simply tormenting, and I can't wait to manually adjust it to the expected time.

At this moment, the "Tianqing-1" has broken away from the orbital platform and accelerated to the geosynchronous orbit again.

In the observation room, Ding Yang looked at Ren Hong, who was dozing, hesitated for a moment and came to his side and whispered: "Boss, it's already 3 o'clock in the morning, and I have to meet with people from the China National Space Administration tomorrow, I think it's better to go back to the headquarters first." ”

Ren Hong's face did look tired, he woke up at less than 6 o'clock every morning, and almost every day on weekdays would not end until the early hours of the morning, and he only slept for more than five hours a day during weekdays. It can be seen that the success and speed of the rise of matrix technology are no accident.

"But......" Ding Yang wanted to say but stopped.

Ren Hong stretched his body, stood up, and said: "I have been preparing for four or five years, and at a critical juncture, it will not be short of these dozens of minutes, and I will go back as soon as the results come out." ”

Ding Yang had no choice but to give up when he heard it, as the time approached, the "Tianqing No. 1" far away from the established orbital position was getting closer and closer, and in the last ten minutes, the people in the entire command center were once again suspended, and the director listened to the respective reports of the staff without saying a word, his palms were clenched into fists, and there was a little undetectable sweat on his forehead, which showed how much pressure he was facing at the moment.

After all, that's 150 billion!

"'Tianqing-1' has entered the established orbit!"

"Stable signal reception! Signal remote sensing is normal! ”

"Track commissioning complete!"

"'Tianqing No. 1' is officially running synchronously!"

"We made it!"

"It worked!"

The whole audience stood up almost at the same time, many excited staff hugged each other, and the sky-high price of 150 billion made every staff member who joined the launch mission nervous, for fear that their carelessness or other accidents would occur, and this kind of price could not be borne by anyone present.

When the director heard the word "success", he exhaled a long breath deeply, and his clenched fist hand finally relaxed, nodding to himself.

At this moment, almost everyone put down their hanging hearts.

"Prepare for the handover with Matrix Technology!" The superintendent commanded again.

"Let's go! Back to HQ! Ren Hong didn't say much after learning the final result.

As for the handover of "Tianqing No. 1", Zhang Han is here, and he is also very relieved, since the incident and attack, Zhang Han, who has been reborn, has also faded away from the impetuousness of young people and forged his calm character.

"Tianqing-1" is just the beginning, in the next period of time, "Tianqing-2" and "Tianqing-3" will be sent to outer space one after another, but as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, the success of "Tianqing-1" has given everyone great confidence, and the launch of "Tianqing-2" and "Tianqing-3" will not only have experience, but also reduce the pressure a lot.

When the layout of the "Tianqing System" is completed, the three "Tianqing systems" in geosynchronous orbit will initially form a global "virtual network" to connect with the terminal data center of Matrix Technology.

Before the end of this year, in addition to the "Tianqing system" being sent into space, there are nearly 80 relay satellites also equipped with photonic computers launched, China's four major satellite launch bases will launch 45 satellites for Matrix Technology before the end of this year into high-altitude orbit and complete the handover, in the United States space exploration technology company SpaceX will also send the satellite provided by Laura Space Systems SS/L to outer space low-earth orbit a month later.

In the future, the non-stop Matrix Technology will "swipe the screen" in the global aerospace field, and almost all space launch activities are related to Matrix Technology.

When all the satellites are sent into space, the hard configuration of the "virtual network" will officially come to an end.

At present, more than 2.4 million sets of perception helmets have been released from the production line, and all of them have been mothballed. Several production lines will produce the equipment almost 24 hours a day, and by the time the launch day arrives, the expected production capacity will reach more than 35 million units.

Everything is ready, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and when the "virtual world" is released, it will surely shake the world.

(To be continued)

(PS: From the new book period to the present, this big hole is finally going to be filled, some people say water, but I don't agree, it can be said that if "Tech Giant" water, then 90% of the starting point of the book can hold a Pacific Ocean, the reason why the virtual world is held up to the present is because it must be launched at the right time in the setting, otherwise it is like, suddenly the military announced that a supercarrier with a displacement of 100,000 tons can enter space orbit, and mankind has been able to build a 100,000-ton helicarrier, but when I learned the news, I don't think anyone can accept that the current level of human industry's industrial base and productive forces are there, and objectively speaking, it is absolutely impossible to do it even with the strength of the state, and in addition to the industrial base and productive forces, the existing scientific and technological level is not enough to send such a huge object to the sky.

The same is true of the "virtual world" in the text, which requires technical reserves and scientific and technological level, in fact, those who look carefully will find that many places are excessively through the concept of time, which has saved a lot of unnecessary content, old readers can judge that other similar articles, written to this extent at least 2 million words, "Technology Giant" is less than a million words, according to the setting of the stone, about 2 million words should be completed to open the second part of the sequel.

This is a very contradictory problem, on the one hand, readers will dislike the small number of words, on the other hand, they dislike water, of course, this can't be blamed on the reader, but the author did not deal with the balance, such as the small stone, the "virtual world" plot was announced too early, many readers are impatient to look forward to this plot, so they feel that water, this is the pot of stones (so, dinosaur park or something in the text don't dare to mention it, first bury this pit and then say, sweat ~~~).

It's a good thing to find a deficiency, so as to avoid making it again in the future, after all, this story is still long, and the first part is only halfway written, and it is better to write the mistake after making it first.

Finally, thank you for your kindness!! (\~o~/) (To be continued.) )
