Hearing Chen Guo's words, Chen Nian was subconsciously stunned.

Chairman of AVIC Group?

Is it Tan Song?

No, at this point in time, Tan Song should still be the chairman of Anton's side.......

That's Lin Yongming.

In the previous life, Chen Nian did not have the opportunity to contact Lin Yongming, but from the mouths of many people, he had also heard legends about this person.

All in all, this is an extremely cautious, even a little over-cautious, leadership.

Many times, he is judged to be "too fond of feathers".

And this kind of character, when faced with new things, often seems to be less decisive.

Therefore, later around 05, he was replaced by the radical Ma Chongguang, and then replaced by Tan Song.

When dealing with such a person, you can't draw any big pie for him, you have to feed all the fruits to his mouth, and when he eats it, he will pay you.

Thinking of this, Chen Nian hurriedly spoke:

"Good leader, I'm Chen Nian."

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a few seconds, and then a deep male voice rang out.

"Xiao Chen, I'm Lin Yongming."

"Hello Mr. Lin!"

"Hello, let's make a long story short, I have seen the simulation data of the new aircraft you designed, and the results are very good."

"I have verified with our team of experts to confirm the authenticity of the results, and at the same time, we have reached a preliminary agreement."

"That is, if you follow your design, the body can also achieve good results when conducting wind tunnel experiments, which should not be much different from simulation analysis."

"You've done a great job, you've done a great job."

Chen Nian listened to his words inexplicably, and didn't know what he was going to do for a while.

To make a long story short, how many sentences have been wasted?

You don't always call me just to praise me, do you?

"It's just a little bit of work, and the leader has won the award."

"There have been no awards, I'm telling the truth."

"So let's get down to business, I want to ask, did you design this body independently? Is there any help from a team of professionals? ”

"No, I designed it independently."

Chen Nian has answered this question countless times, and no matter who asks, his answer will not change.

"That's ......."

Lin Yongming's voice on the other side clearly contained disappointment.

From his point of view, a sudden genius is not credible---- or rather, cannot be relied upon.

They may come up with many amazing assumptions and amazing results in a short period of time, but most of the time, these results do not translate into practical "reality".

It seems that this Chen Nian is in the same situation.

"So, the design of this body can be said to be a flash of inspiration for you?"

Hearing this, Chen Nian immediately guessed the other party's thoughts.

Wipe!

And so it was.

In the final analysis, no matter how awesome the design of the F-22 fuselage is, it is just a "design" after all.

There's still a lot of work to be done to turn it into a physical object.

Now, Lin Yongming is worried that he has no way to achieve the step of "from technology to implementation".

It's hilarious.

Is a breakthrough technology no longer a breakthrough just because it can't be realized for the time being?

Doesn't its value exist?

This kind of pedantic and rigid thinking, I don't know how many talents have been buried.

Chen Nian tried hard to suppress the anger rising in his heart, and patiently explained:

"Leader, I designed this mech, but it's definitely not a flash of inspiration."

"I also went through a long period of argumentation, research, and research to finally design this model, and it turned out to be really useful, right?"

Lin Yongming on the other end of the phone snorted and replied:

"Of course, we will never deny your contribution."

"But the problem is that now that the project has reached the project approval stage, what we need to discuss is how much resources to invest in this project."

"You see, according to Lei Gang and Chen Guo's ideas, your project is going in the direction of a new fifth-generation aircraft, that is to say, the resources it will consume are huge."

"But the question is, can your research capabilities really support such a large project?"

"Can this project really come to fruition in the end?"

"There will be."

Chen Nian said firmly.

He had no doubt about this, after all, he was now holding a β-type titanium-aluminum alloy that had just been made by HIP pressing in his hands.

"There must be such words, which cannot be put in the project feasibility report....... What we need is evidence, predictable results. ”

Chen Nian knew that this was the time to talk about business.

However, instead of answering immediately, he asked rhetorically:

"Leader, if we can't come up with a visible result, does it mean that you won't approve the budget for this project?"

"That's not it, we can look at it while walking, of course, it is impossible to approve a budget of tens of millions, and we can approve 5 million for the first phase of the project."

"5 million?"

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Chen Nian's mouth.

What is 5 million enough?

Blow the wind tunnel a few times and it's gone!

Even if you solve the material problem yourself, you won't be able to build a truly usable body with this money.

With only such a little money, this project might as well be yellow!

"Yes, it's a lot of money, you know, a lot of money is used now......."

"What kind of results do you need to see in order to approve more budget?"

Chen Nian didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, it's useless for you to pull with him with such a leader, it's better to go straight with him!

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Yongming on the other side obviously had anger, after all, it was the first time in the past few years that someone had spoken to him like this.

Without waiting for Chen Nian to explain, he continued:

"Do you mean that I don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, or do you mean that I suppress young people?"

"Yes, your design is good, but it's not irreplaceable, we have many similar designs in our archives, but they all have the same problem: they can't make it!"

"Do you think I don't want to build a new plane? Do you think I don't want fifth-generation aircraft? What is our problem now? It's no money! ”

"Every penny counts! Not only the Air Force, but also the Navy also costs money, we now have 4 Hyundai-class ships and a few 053 ships in our hands, and every time we have a meeting, it is when we cry each other poor! ”

"No, it's not crying poor, we're really poor!"

"In this case, do you want me to let you go on adventures? If I fail, I can afford the consequences, but I'll go to jail! ”

"But can our country afford it?! Can the people afford it?! ”

His words fell, and it was as if a heavy hammer had fallen on the top of Chen Nian's head.

He suddenly realized that the man on the other side of the phone might not really be what he thought he was.

Yes, from the perspective of later generations, he was indeed an overly conservative and cowering leader.

But did he do it voluntarily?

No.

Otherwise, this man would not have given up his almost certain and steadily rising career in middle age, and was ordered to come to AVIC Group as the leader in danger.

---- he was just forced by circumstances.

Yes, we are too poor in this era.

Poor to GDP only one-tenth of the era he traveled back to.

So poor that there are no planes in the Air Force and no ships in the Navy.

So poor that even changing the army's military uniforms has to be thought twice.

I didn't really understand this history in my previous life, so after the country became stronger, I always felt that it was a matter of course to invest in scientific research and dumplings on a large scale.

However, this is really not a matter of course.

We can do it because we win our bets and fight.

But what if you don't win?

Isn't this what leaders like Lin Yongming are worried about?

They are not wrong, they just want to try not to let Huaxia lose as much as possible, and leave the last spark in the process of seeking development as much as possible.

Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Understood, leader, I see what you mean."

"But, rest assured, I'm not putting you at risk."

"There is no element of risk in this whole plan."

"I have already drawn the structural drawings of the components and parts of the full-motion flat-tail air intake, and I can send it to Professor Chen immediately, which can support us to build a real flying body."

Hearing Chen Nian's sincere apology, Lin Yongming's anger also disappeared a little.

He paused for a few seconds, then said:

"Young and vigorous, understandable."

"But I still have to say that a full-motion flat tail alone is not enough to support the large-scale development of this project."

"Of course, if you really draw all the parts and components according to the plan I told Chen Guo before, then I can guarantee that the budget of this project can reach 100 million."

"Not enough."

Chen Nian subconsciously shook his head.

"Not enough? How much do you want? ”

Lin Yongming's voice sank again.

"5 billion is enough."

"5 billion? Okay, what do you get in exchange? ”

Lin Yongming wanted to laugh at Chen Nian's anger, the five billion is light to say, just like fifty yuan.

"F119-PW-100 engine."

After saying this, there was silence on the other side.

After a long time, Lin Yongming spoke:

"Are you kidding me? What do you think Hangfa is? Can you make it by just talking about it? Not to mention the complex structure, we can't solve it with just one high-temperature resistant material! ”

"I can fix it."

"You solve? What do you take to solve it? By mouth? ”

Chen Nian took a deep breath, this time, he was not angry.

"The main difficulties of the F119-PW-100 engine are the single crystal nickel-iron alloy of the turbofan blades, the flame retardant titanium alloy of Alloy C, the ceramic composite TBC, and the high-temperature resin-based outer duct coating."

"I will solve the problems of these materials one by one."

"You don't have to question me, because I'm not just talking about it."

"Now, at this moment, I have a copy of Ti-6Al--4V titanium-aluminum alloy material in my hand, which I just synthesized in the materials laboratory of the Western Research Institute."

"This is the main structural material of the F-22 fighter, and in China, even if it is prepared in the laboratory, there are only a very small number of results."

"But I have a process in my hand that can achieve industrial mass production."

"As long as you give me a little time, the materials mentioned before can be mass-produced."
