However, Li Zhao said it very easily, but everyone gasped, it was too expensive, such a cost, if the cost of the initial investment is amortized, how can it cost 20 million, right? What does this price mean? It is equivalent to saying that in the future, this aircraft is equivalent to 800 million aircraft, which is still an initial third-generation aircraft.

At this time, Division Commander Zhang said: "It's still too expensive, it is estimated that it is too much to be able to purchase five planes a year, and next year's military expenditure is only 8.7 billion, and there is no money to purchase equipment at all to support so many troops."

Li Zhao doesn't care much about the number of purchases, and the early models, the performance will not be too strong, this era should be the era of small steps, with as little money as possible, do the most things, and complete cross-generational progress. As for what Li Zhao really cares about, it is the integrity of the system, the national production of all parts and components and the continuous research of all systems, only in this way can it be quickly taken out when it is really needed.

Li Zhao said at this time: "Next year, at most, we can enter the test flight stage, and if you want to really put it into service, it will take at least three or five years later, you won't forget, I don't understand weapon-related research, so to add a weapon system, you need to find another person, but the easiest way is to hang a bomb, which is estimated to be ten tons and eight tons."

Yes, Li Zhao doesn't understand weapons, especially about weapons like missiles, which are things that he has never touched at all, where can he understand? At most, he is just building an aircraft without a weapon system, even if it is an aircraft, the electronic system has to be handled by other people in the research institute, and this part will seriously affect the performance of the aircraft, although Li Zhao is very anxious, there is no way, he can only wait for the people in the research institute to study it slowly.

Now the whole aircraft he can get his hands on is machinery, processing technology and metal materials, even if it is inorganic non-metallic materials, his understanding is relatively limited, although he also studied chemistry, but after all, it is a major in machinery and steel, in chemistry he is weaker than the general chemistry undergraduates, and in machinery, he is stronger than most of the people with a doctorate degree or above in this era, this is the gap.

Division Commander Zhang said at this time: "It sounds very powerful, ten tons, this is not weaker than a bomber, but you are a fighter, how can you rob the bomber? It seems that we need to continue to apply for relevant personnel, and we can't research out an aircraft, and we don't even have supporting weapons, so how can such an aircraft have combat effectiveness?"

Father Su also said at this time: "Yes, I will apply for relevant personnel when I go to work after the New Year, Li Zhao, after the New Year, your project team that mainly forms the aircraft as a whole is right?" Is it necessary to set up a separate research institute, there is still a big gap between this and drones, and is it a bit inappropriate to put them together with drones?"

Of course, Li Zhao wants to set up a new research institute, but where there are so many people, all kinds of research in the factory are very important, just like airplanes, what is needed is the cooperation of multiple research institutes in order to make great progress, such as the combination of materials, machinery, electronics, weapons, and so on to be successfully developed, not three or two people can do it.

Li Zhao could only say helplessly at this time: "We don't have so many people, let's forget it for the time being, let's talk about it when there are more people in the future, to be honest, many of the projects we study are not three or two hundred people who can quickly achieve breakthroughs, just like the aircraft project, as the aircraft becomes more and more advanced in the future, we only need aircraft-related research, and it is estimated that it will take thousands of people to refine each project for research."

After hearing this, Su's father also expressed his agreement, looking at the 998 factory to run more than 20 research institutes, in fact, there are really not many people, and a large number of researchers are only bachelor's or even junior college degrees, there are really not many people with high education, as for those who have stayed in school, there is no one, now except for electronics, most of them are based on Li Zhaocai's head, and a lot of research is almost taught by Li Zhao.

After Li Zhao talked about the project, others also began to talk about it, but most of them are more conventional, such as metal research, this piece will move forward every year, these studies are not achieved overnight, but Li Zhao gave a good foundation, so that the metal research is very high, and on the basis of these research, as long as it can make progress every year, these will become stronger with time and continuous investment of funds.

Another example is electronics, computers, communications, machinery, drones, automobiles, and inorganic

Non-metallic materials, organic materials, agriculture, etc. will be in accordance with the established plan, moving forward, but there are a few studies that have not yet found a way, which is more worth paying attention to, one of which is the research of medicine.

At this time, several persons in charge of the Institute of Medicine said: "Now in addition to normal disease research, the Chinese patent medicine has made relatively rapid progress after the addition of the pharmaceutical factory, and now there are several drugs that have initially come up with preparation methods, and we will conduct a series of trials after the year, and if there is no problem, we will apply for clinical trials."

When Li Zhao heard this, he looked at the person in charge of the research institute in surprise, is this progress too fast? Li Zhaoke has heard that it will take about ten or eight years for future medical research to be successfully marketed, which is a major progress, isn't it too mysterious? Li Zhao felt very bad about this situation.

Li Zhao asked, "Are you making such a fast progress, how much time is this?" This medicine is meant to be given to people to cure diseases and save people, but it should not be sloppy at all, once there is a problem, it is a matter of human life."

At this time, the chief engineer of the pharmaceutical factory said: "Of course we will not be sloppy, the first thing we studied is some relatively simple prescriptions, these drugs have actually been repeatedly confirmed, and the toxicity can be assured, after all, after so many years of use, all the toxicity in the middle has been neutralized, maybe there will be problems with a large number of uses, but the first thing we studied is not those drugs that need to be taken for a long time."

At this time, several hospital directors also chimed in: "Yes, Chief Engineer Li, we are all doctors, we know the relationship, it is impossible to joke about patients, just like the kind of medicine that was first taken out, it is to treat colds, although Chief Engineer Li did not directly agree to carry out small batch production, we can also guarantee that there is basically no problem, after all, the first to test the drug is our own researchers, how can we be sloppy."

Although Li Zhao was very moved after hearing this, he had to remind: "You are wrong to think like this, you are people who study medical drugs, if you have a problem, then the loss will be greater, so your practice of testing drugs by yourself is not advisable at all, you don't have to think about operating like that in the future, you had better engage in animal experiments at the beginning, the development of Western medicine starts from this aspect, you should know better than me?"

Li Zhao is a little strange, why they didn't conduct animal testing, this is very surprising, and the most surprising thing for him is that the experimenter would actually take medicine by himself to test the efficacy, which is even more nonsense.

However, when Li Zhao finished speaking, several people directly showed bitterness, and the chief engineer of the pharmaceutical factory said directly: "We all know the application of this aspect, but we have no channel to supply laboratory animals, there is no place in China that specializes in raising animals in this area, there are laboratories to use, and they are all cultivating a small amount of their own."

Hearing this, Li Zhao was already a little dumbfounded, he seemed to have forgotten the most important problem, that is, the time for the development of Western medicine is too short, from the 10s of this century to the 30s, the West is still advocating that radium is a panacea, until there was the Radium girl incident, and the fact that radium was seriously harmful was revealed. I don't know how many people have been pitted, that is to say, there were no standardized standards for animal testing in the West in the thirties and forties.

In such a situation, where can we expect that there will be standardized animal testing standards in China in one or two decades? Even now, Li Zhao is not sure that the West has established perfect animal testing standards, after all, Li Zhao knows that it was not until the 50s that the West stopped anterior lobotomy, and it was not until the 21st century that the role of the appendix was understood.

The appendix has been proven in the 21st century to have the functions of immunity, secretion of digestive enzymes and storage of probiotics, especially after the human body has undergone serious digestive tract diseases, the microflora disorder is adjusted by the probiotics stored in the appendix, which is a function that has not been understood in the 20th century.

Thinking of this, Li Zhao said: "It seems that it is necessary for us to start breeding experimental animals, and it is impossible to directly use people for testing any drug, right? This is too risky, and the other thing is that if it is determined that the drug is not toxic and very effective, it will obviously start to be produced in large quantities, so the next step is to do so

We need to carry out research on drug cultivation, otherwise we are likely to face a shortage of raw materials."

After Li Zhao put it forward, everyone had no opinion, and in these two work, the Institute of Medicine and the Institute of Agriculture jointly set up a research team to conduct research, after all, although the Institute of Agriculture understands planting and breeding, it does not know what kind of breeding and planting is needed, and it is not possible without the cooperation of the Institute of Medicine.
