Chapter Seventy-Four: The Team (One More Chapter Later)
While Lin Yongming and his entourage were steadily advancing the plan of arms sales, Chen Nian was carefully planning his own or the next step of the whole of China.
In February, Xi'an University of Technology has ushered in a month-and-a-half-long winter vacation, which is a rare break for most students.
Using this time, they can go back to spend time with their families and have a good year, but Chen Nian is diametrically opposed.
He plans to use this period of time, which is completely unscheduled, to wrap up the introductory basic course in materials science.
After that, he will be able to truly step into the door of the incomparably profound discipline of "materials".
After entering the field of high knowledge enrichment, whether it is in the accumulation of source points or in the improvement of its own level, it will enter a fast lane.
According to his discussions with Hu Xu, to do this, he will have to spare at least six hours of study each day for the next day.
Moreover, it must be 6 hours of energy and efficiency.
Fortunately, Chen Nian has become accustomed to the current intensity of study, and this pressure is nothing to him.
Compared with learning this simple thing, it is more difficult to use the resources at hand to plan the next analysis plan.
Now he still has 2.25 source points in his hands, and the modular analysis of the F-22 has completed the three parts of power, fuel and airframe, and the remaining avionics, hydraulics, take-off and landing, radar systems, hydraulic and take-off and landing technology is not difficult, and Huaxia itself has accumulated.
Radar systems mainly rely on the development of semiconductors, and it is useless to analyze them now, and they will have to wait a few years for the semiconductor industry to develop more maturely before they can be manufactured.
The only thing that has analytical value is avionics.
But the problem is that Huaxia's avionics system is developing very fast, and it will reach the world-class level in a few years, and there is no need to waste the source here.
So, in fact, the analysis of the F-22 has already been completed.
Next, it is to wait for the previous technologies to continue to blossom and bear fruit, and wait for the Chinese aviation people to improve this fighter step by step independently.
In this case, Chen Nian must set his sights on new areas.
The previous long-range fire and missiles were a good attempt, which also gave him some ideas.
If the plane can catch up quickly in a short time, what about the ship?
In 2003, the warships we had were either 051 or modern, with old technology and weak combat effectiveness, not to mention going to the deep blue, and it was difficult to even defend the light blue.
Even at this time, the construction of aircraft carriers has become a sensitive topic, and many occasions cannot be mentioned.
Otherwise, how could the bureau cry on the spot on a certain show?
And not because the navy is too weak?
So it seems that after opening a breakthrough for the Air Force, will the Navy also have to follow?
But if the naval project is opened again, the money will not be enough.
For a while, Chen Nian couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Perhaps, rushing for quick success is not the best way.
I still have to find a way to lay the foundation for Huaxia again.
Chen Nian's brows furrowed, and for the first time, he felt the pressure of decision-making.
As you move up the ranks, the more you see, the harder it becomes to make decisions that take the big picture into account.
And if you want to trigger the maximum effect with the least consumption, you must jump out of the idea of going it alone and build your own team.
A team that has access to comprehensive information, provides him with decision support and, if necessary, is able to act as a technical executive to implement his ideas.
Thinking of this, Chen Nian immediately picked up the phone and called Chen Guo directly.
The phone was picked up after only two rings, and Chen Guo on the other side asked angrily:
"Xiao Nian, what's wrong? What's new? ”
Chen Nian was a little embarrassed, every time he took the initiative to call Chen Guo before, it was basically when there was a technological breakthrough after the analysis was completed, and now it gave him a conditioned reflex.
He smiled helplessly, and replied:
"No, Professor Chen, this is not a new development, I have something I want to ask you for help with."
"Oh? Having difficulties? Or is there a special need? ”
Chen Guo's tone did not show any loss, but seemed more enthusiastic.
After all, judging from the current situation, every time he helps Chen Nian solve a problem, he will give back more results.
"I want to build a team."
"The team? Tell us more about it? ”
"I need a team of really professional consultants, who can bring together experts in a variety of fields, including economics, military affairs, sociology, etc., and be able to give constructive professional advice in these areas."
"My consideration is this, in the future, the R&D direction I want to choose must be the current shortage in China, and at the same time, it must be a technology that can maximize the benefits after a single breakthrough."
"But it is almost impossible for me to do such a complex analysis on my own, so I have to rely on the power of the state."
Hearing this, Chen Guo on the other end of the phone slapped his thigh.
"You said it earlier! Actually, we had this idea before, but ....... In short, in the end, it was not implemented. ”
"But now that you've put forward this demand yourself, there's no reason why we shouldn't be satisfied."
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me, I will give you a list as soon as possible, and you can choose according to your needs when the time comes."
But Chen Guo didn't say the latter words, but Chen Nian could vaguely guess it.
There are only two reasons for not implementing it, the first is that the official is not clear about where the boundaries of his capabilities are, and there is no way to confirm whether it makes sense to spend a huge cost to allocate such a "think tank" to himself.
Second, it is estimated that this external input will interfere with one's own research to some extent and be counterproductive.
However, their worries are naturally unnecessary, after all, their biggest "plug-in feature" happens to need the assistance of such a think tank.
Chen Nian thanked him twice, and after a pause, he seemed to remember something, so he continued to speak:
"I need to ask you to help me make a primary selection first, but I have a few additional requirements."
"You said directly, as long as it can be satisfied, I will do everything possible to help you!"
Chen Guo replied decisively.
"Then I'll be blunt."
"First, I ask the members of this team to first go through ideological investigation, and first of all, they must not be mixed with banana people, but I also don't want the kind of overzealous and extreme patriots, because they are generally fragile, and I want comrades who can stand the test."
"Second, the age of the team should be younger, preferably under 45, with active thinking and good physical strength."
"Thirdly, and most importantly, they must not represent the interests of any party, not even the military. I have to make sure that the decision-making advice they give me is completely neutral and only for the good of the whole. ”
After listening to Chen Nian's words, Chen Guo nodded secretly.
These requirements basically avoid all possible "soft problems", and organizing the team according to such conditions will greatly reduce the friction in the later cooperation.
So he replied:
"No problem, I'll look for it according to your standards!"
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Chen Nian hung up the phone.
Then, he looked at the mind map he had drawn on the blank paper earlier and breathed a long sigh of relief.
The biggest problem of "limited personal energy" has finally been solved.
It won't be long before I don't have to fight alone.....
