Chapter XXVIII

A week later, the 601 Institute, the No. 22 project was launched.

Chen Nian sat on the edge of the venue, looking at the experts and scholars who entered the venue one after another, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

These are all ruthless people who really rely on their own strength to fight little by little.

Compared to them, I was really lucky to be able to sit here.

If it weren't for the blessing of the system, I really don't know how many years it would be before I could meet them.

Thinking of this, he looked down at the notebook in his hand again.

Before that, it took him a week to finally complete the study of Chen Guo's notes, which not only means that he has basically started the subject of aerodynamics, but also has reached the standard of being able to solve problems independently in the basic knowledge of fluid mechanics and wind power.

Of course, this is not to say that he has become an expert in the field of aerodynamics, in fact, he has only crossed the threshold at best.

It's like a toddler who can now stand up, but if you ask him to walk, run, hurdle, it's a fantasy.

Not to mention the cutting-edge turbulence patterns, flow stability, and boundary layer transition problems, even the textbook-mentioned theories of vortices, potential flows, boundary layers, etc., still take a lot of time to digest.

Fortunately, Chen Nian is not so anxious, with the blessing of the system, as long as he grasps the basic principles, he can quickly establish an understanding of a specific model based on the system data, which is equivalent to skipping the analysis and research and inferring the process from the results.

This is undoubtedly a huge improvement in efficiency, and it is also the use of the system that he has recently experimented with.

Not only can this thing promote the development of applied technology, but as long as the reverse analysis is done properly, even basic science can make great progress.

The system is such a good thing!

Chen Nian opened the system interface, and in the column of the number of source points, it had come to 1.09 at this time.

In other words, he has the opportunity to parse again.

But right now, he wasn't going to use that opportunity right away.

The reason is very simple, he wants to hear first, which direction the project will focus on in the future.

If it is to give priority to solving the problems of body strength, materials, etc., then disassemble the source point and continue to the direction of materials science.

If you believe in yourself enough and plan to challenge a limit rush engine, then don't think about it, just click on the power system and fuel system.

As for handling, take-off and landing, hydraulic pneumatic pressure........ This thing can be ordered or not.

Even if the system does not give any blessings, it will only take two or three years, and with the development of the J-20 project, we can quickly catch up with the United States in these fields.

And now, it's up to the top to make decisions.

Just as he was planning in his heart what kind of reasonable way to gradually run out of technology, on the rostrum in front of the venue, Lei Gang had already begun to speak.

"Hello everyone, today is the day when our No. 22 project officially starts."

"Regarding this No. 22 project, we have already reported to you before, and we will not repeat it now."

"Due to the special nature of this project, our leadership team did not make a final decision on the tasks of the entire project in the early stage. For the next meeting, we have one and only one on the agenda! ”

"It's about solving the problem of the project's key work."

"At this meeting, we will decide on the main investment directions for the next few months or even years, and the final conclusion is closely related to you, and I hope you will actively participate in the discussion."

"Note that there was no rehearsal for today's discussion, which means that no one greeted me in advance in the early stage."

"I don't know anything about your ideas, all your ideas have to be brought to the meeting!"

"Okay, you all know the principle of project confidentiality, now let's officially enter the discussion session!"

His voice fell, and there was an eerie silence in the room.

This has never happened before.

In fact, in this era, in most enterprises and institutions, the so-called "meeting and discussion" is actually just a form of uploading and disseminating.

There may be discussions in the process, but the results must have been determined long ago.

If the lower level executors do not have enough power and status to convey their opinions before the meeting begins, it means that they have lost the right to discuss before the discussion.

But this time....... Seems a little different?

Slowly, the whispering began to sound, and Lei Gang did not stop it.

This is a brand-new attempt, and it is also an attempt under Chen Nian's suggestion.

He wanted to see if the final result would be the same as he thought if decision-making was really delegated to grassroots researchers.

After waiting for five minutes, the first person raised his hand to speak, and Lei Gang was surprised to find that it was an engineer named Zhao Sui, who could almost be said to have no sense of existence in the 601 Institute.

"Zhao Sui, you come on."

As soon as Lei called his name, Zhao Sui immediately stood up, even so nervous that his hands trembled a little.

"Hello leaders, ladies and gentlemen, I am honored to have this opportunity to express my views today."

"Regarding this project, I think it is first and foremost correct and far-sighted, and it is also the concern of superiors and leaders......."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Lei Gang immediately interrupted him, Zhao Sui smiled awkwardly, and continued:

"Then I'll cut straight to the point....... My view is that we should not be satisfied with just a wind tunnel experiment, or even just the structural verification of the body. ”

"If we're going to do it, we're going to really make a brand new plane."

"Based on this goal, I believe that our focus in the early stage of this project should first be to deduce and design the internal structure based on the results of the wind tunnel data."

"Secondly, we need to focus on the most difficult problem, which is the problem of powertrain matching."

"As we all know, the biggest problem we face in the aviation industry is still the problem of the heart, if the engine is not solved, then no matter how good the body design, how excellent the structural strength, can not really play the strength of a fighter."

"So, I think we should expand the dimension of the project and really turn it into an airplane project."

"Instead of building planes on the surface, as is the case now, in fact, we are using our results to give blood to other projects!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the venue looked at each other.

Of course, it was not because Zhao Sui said it wrong, but because ........ He was too daring to say it.

Project 22 was not a real aircraft project from the beginning, which was a common idea of many people present.

Blowing tunnels, taking data, doing structural optimization, and even manufacturing new materials....... And then what?

Then, there's the never-ending validation of the technology.

It is even possible to verify that for ten or twenty years, not a single real plane will take off.

It's a sad reality, but it's also a reality that most people can't reconcile.

A person engaged in aviation, who wants to be behind the scenes forever, who doesn't want to have a plane that really soars into the sky in their own hands?

But the question is, is it really that easy?
