Chapter 432: It will be solved
PS: In the previous chapter, the content was too sensitive to be harmonized, and I was trying to find a way to revise it, and it was estimated that it would take several days to release it.

The security personnel on the upper and lower floors of the conference room were all evacuated.
Only at the entrance and exit of the floor where the conference room is located, a sentry has been set up.
Before Chen Weidong walked into the conference room, he heard the sound of discussion inside.
The expert group that had come to listen to the report before was gone, and the researchers of Infinity, who had just said nothing, became active at once.
They held heated discussions in accordance with their respective departments and relying on the overall development plan of the aerospace aircraft.
Chen Weidong pushed the door and entered, and saw Zhao Gong, who was discussing seriously with the members of the fuselage design team, holding a drawing.
Seeing the boss come in, they stopped talking.
Zhao Gong couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chen, Director Gu, are they all gone?" What do they mean? Did you say that our design was unrealistic, so we didn't want to continue working on it? ”
Chen Weidong made a straight face, found a chair and sat down expressionlessly, and said lightly: "What do you say?" ”
The researchers in the room felt a little bad when they saw his expression, and their hearts sank.
A researcher cautiously said, "Mr. Chen, shouldn't you really let us dismiss this plan?" We're basically ready to go, so it's time for the actual test? ”
Many people pursed their mouths, and their expressions were very solemn.
The researchers in the conference room are all returning from Africa, and they have been directly involved in the implementation of the Utopia plan since the construction of the base, and all the efforts have been poured into it over the years.
If the plan is really rejected, then what is the point of their previous research?
As soon as the previous researcher finished speaking, another voice rang out: "Damn, they said get off the horse, get off the horse, get off the horse!" This is our own research at our own expense! ”
"If it really doesn't work, let's go back to Africa, no matter what, the utopian plan must be carried out, and the aerospace plane must also be successful!"
"That's right! That's it! We've all done so much research work, we can't afford to give up halfway! ”
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and all kinds of voices in the conference room came and went, all of them saying that the aerospace plane could not be stopped, and even if it was tested in the Sahara Desert in northern Africa, it must be successfully developed!
When they first became involved in the Utopia project, no one knew if they would succeed.
However, with the breakthrough of photonic computers and the improvement of Tiandao simulators, seeing that the research conditions are getting better and better, and breakthroughs have been made one after another, the utopia project is no longer just a fantasy, and everyone is full of expectations.
I hope to see the day when my plan is realized in my lifetime.
Letting them abandon this plan is like asking them to die!
Chen Weidong looked around at the people in the conference room and said softly: "Here in South China City, you don't have to stay."
With a bang, all the researchers in the room stood up, and many of them were shocked and angry.
Chen Weidong raised his hand to stop their passionate speeches, and the conference room fell into a deathly silence, and he said slowly: "The company has an address in the mountainous area of Qiannan, which is ostensibly used to store servers, but in fact it is a place to secretly manufacture some large precision parts for the military. ”
"They sent security personnel and took care of the safety of the manufacturing plant."
"Within dozens of kilometers, there are reckless mountains, you go there, I will arrange it."
He did not tell the truth, although the expert group rejected the Infinity company's aerospace aircraft program and felt that it was not feasible, but the general assembly did not prohibit the Infinity company from continuing to invest in research, but hoped that they would increase their investment and achieve results as soon as possible.
Chen Weidong did not want to tell the researchers about this.
The utopian plan is related to whether they can jump out of this environment in the future, and it also involves the future way out of their group.
After experiencing rebirth, it is impossible for him to pin his hopes on others, and only by holding his fate in his own hands can he feel at ease.
He didn't want to see any surprises happen until the plan was successful.
Therefore, isolating researchers from the outside world is the safest way to do so.
After the success of the plan, the country will certainly reap great benefits.
But until then, he didn't want the state to be involved.
The aerospace aircraft program must be completed by Infinity independently!
Researcher, you look at me, I look at you, and several people open their mouths and stop talking.
Chen Weidong saw their expressions in his eyes, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, since I initiated this plan, I will never give it up, no matter how big the difficulty is, even if I am the only one left in the end, I will carry it out to the end." ”
"Do you have any questions?"
Zhao Gong said with a bitter face: "Mr. Chen, I also understand that this plan is very important, and I personally will never give up, the problem is, the engine we want to make"
When he said this, he sighed heavily.
Chen Weidong raised his spirit and said encouragingly: "Say, if you have any problems, leave them to me, and I will find a way to help you solve them!" ”
After getting his affirmation, Zhao Gong no longer sighed, and said bluntly: "Mr. Chen, to be honest, I still had some expectations for the plan to get the approval of the final assembly, because the special materials required for the engine are very difficult to produce, and we have only gotten more than 600 grams of new materials, which is far from enough to make a test engine." ”
"Before, I also hoped to use the power of the country to jointly tackle key problems and provide the required materials by domestic special alloy enterprises, but now"
He sighed again in embarrassment.
Zhao Gong is not stupid, he can become the head of the mechanical laboratory, of course, not only is he skilled, but also his mind is much more flexible than those scientific researchers who are dedicated to research.
As early as when Chen Weidong asked him not to disclose the details such as materials, he roughly guessed Chen Weidong's thoughts, and he did so.
But he couldn't do anything about the practical difficulties he faced, so he could only explain them to Chen Weidong one by one.
Chen Weidong nodded and said solemnly: "I have told you this problem a long time ago, I will find a way to solve it, you don't have to worry." ”
Even if the new special materials are handed over to domestic special alloy enterprises to produce, they must also establish a set of refining and processing furnace equipment for this purpose.
This is not a small investment.
In addition, although the material required for this test is stronger than the existing material, it can only be considered a transitional product in the long run.
According to the opinion of the head of the materials department at the African base, Dr. Nikolai, this new type of material can only be said to be barely usable.
The life of the combined engine produced from this material will not exceed 100 hours, and it will be completely scrapped after about ten takeoffs and landings.
According to Dr. Nikolai's research progress, he believes that within three years, it is entirely possible to come up with a new type of material that fully meets the requirements and guarantees a start of 1,000 hours.
Therefore, it is very cost-effective to build a processing plant specifically for a transition material.
Scientific research itself is a process of repeatedly verifying, selecting, and eliminating inapplicable technologies and products among various immature technologies.
The amount of materials, money, manpower and material resources to be wasted increases geometrically with the complexity of the research project.
For the smooth progress of a research project, thousands of supporting facilities and factories will be built!
This is the reason why many small countries, while in some areas have achieved very good research results, in general, they lag far behind the large R&D countries.
