"It's me, I thought Lao Chen hadn't mentioned me to you."

Yang Wei's tone was a little relaxed, and on this side, Chen Nian rubbed his face fiercely.

Who is Yang Wei?

There are two things that can be said to be well known about him.

First, he is the chief designer of the J-20.

Second, he didn't finish high school.

In an interview at the time, his exact words were:

"I didn't have much preparation, so I filled in Tsinghua University and Peking University, and it was okay to get out of the exam, but I was only one or two points away from the juvenile class, and it didn't take long for me to go to college......"

He was only 15 years old when he entered college.

And just 10 years later, he achieved the most important technological breakthrough in the domestic third-generation aircraft, that is, the breakthrough in the fly-by-wire flight control system, which made the domestic third-generation aircraft possible.

Subsequently, he participated in the design optimization of the J-10 and Xiaolong, and served as the chief designer of the J-20 project after the J-20 project was established.

The brilliance of this resume, in the history of the development of the domestic military industry, I am afraid that no one can match it.

——

But the question is, what is he looking for me?

Chen Nian thought suspiciously, this time J-20 project should have just entered a critical period, all designs are facing verification experiments, and a large number of schemes have been eliminated in 04-05.

It stands to reason that Yang Wei, who is the chief designer, should be so busy that the soles of his feet are smoking, and he still has time to call himself?

I hadn't heard Chen Guo say that he was looking for himself before.

Is it digging people?

It's possible, but it's really not the style of ordinary people to call at this time......

Thinking of this, Chen Nian replied:

"Why don't you use Professor Chen's introduction, everyone who is engaged in airplanes knows you, I just didn't react for a while......"

Hearing his words, Yang Wei on the other side smiled and said:

"If someone else said this, I would have admitted it with a smile, but in front of you, I really don't dare to be arrogant."

"The first flight of the J-22 was 8 years ahead of our estimate of the first flight of the fourth-generation aircraft, and when we heard the news, all of us were stupid."

"I know you're also working on fourth-generation aircraft, but I really didn't know you were so fast......"

Speaking of this, Yang Wei paused for a moment, and then continued:

"I won't say much if I congratulate you, Chen Nian, I have something to discuss with you today, let's get straight to the point?"

Chen Nian nodded subconsciously and replied:

"Mr. Yang, just say it directly!"

"I want you to be the consultant of the J-20 project!"

Yang Wei said bluntly.

"Be a consultant...... I'm afraid I can't do it. ”

Although he had already guessed the other party's intentions, when Yang Wei sent out the invitation, Chen Nian still couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

You must know that the reason why he was able to lead the design and research and development of the J-22 is because he directly analyzed the F22 with the system, knew all the details of this aircraft well, and also knew its design advantages and disadvantages, and could put forward optimization suggestions.

But if you put it on the J-20......

The design concept of the J-20 is very different from that of the F22, and the experience accumulated in the No. 22 project cannot be directly applied to the J-20.

And if you rely purely on your own expertise, it is not enough to support the entire project for the time being.

As for analyzing the future J-20......

No kidding, Chen Nian will never do this kind of pure waste of resources.

Therefore, Chen Nian never thought of getting involved in the J-20 project, and he knew that he couldn't help much.

Hearing Chen Nian's answer, Yang Wei on the other side did not show any disappointment, but continued to ask:

"Won't you first ask what I want you to do?"

"Uh...... Mr. Yang, to tell you the truth, no matter what I do, I can play a very limited role. ”

"The overall design logic of the J-22 is almost completely different from the J-20, and I can't apply the experience of the J-22 to the J-20."

"And if it's some general technology and theory, in fact, you can just go to 601 and get it."

"Now it's all about technology sharing and interoperability, so there's no need to add me as a role."

Chen Nian's tone was sincere, but Yang Wei didn't seem to be convinced at all.

"You're wrong, we need your character right now."

"Why?"

Chen Nian asked suspiciously.

"Because we know what you're doing, we know what you want, and we're willing to do what you want."

"I'll just ask you a question: J-20 is on the ship, what do you think?"

Chen Nian Huoran stood up, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief:

"You're going to change the J-20 into a carrier-based aircraft?? You're going to go to the flat deck? Varyag ...... Don't want it? ”

Yang Wei seemed to be very satisfied with Chen Nian's reaction, he chuckled lightly and replied:

"Of course, the Varyag still wants it, but its status is more like a 'technology verification aircraft carrier', and in the above plan, flat deck, electromagnetic catapult, and large tonnage are the real directions."

"So, under the premise that flat decks are the mainstream, we have to prepare for this in advance."

"The design of the J-22 has been finalized, and it is destined to be impossible to be used as a carrier-based aircraft, but the J-20 still has a chance."

"You probably know that the J-20 adopts a canard wing layout, which has an advantage in the case of low speed and large angle of attack, and if it can be optimized accordingly, it may become the most threatening carrier-based aircraft in the world!"

"Chen Nian, although I was not included in the Spark Working Group, my confidentiality authority is very high, and I know most of the information."

"You're pushing the domestic aircraft carrier project, right? Don't you want to do it in one step and let our first aircraft carrier have the best carrier-based aircraft? ”

After listening to Yang Wei's words, Chen Nian fell into deep thought.

J-20 on the ship...... The temptation of this thing was too great for him.

But the problem is, it's not easy!

The aspect ratio of the J-20 is only 2.3, compared with the 2.76 aspect ratio of the F-35, which is really small and pitiful, and the design of the airframe needs to be modified.

The main wing had to be lengthened and the canard wing down, while also taking into account the changes in the vortices on the wing surface caused by such changes.

On the other hand, the original J-20 had a maximum take-off weight of 39 tons, which was too heavy for a carrier-based aircraft, and on the premise of not reducing combat effectiveness, it was necessary to either use new materials to reduce weight, or to install new engines.

In addition, the structural strength is also a big problem, and it is estimated that even the body materials will have to be replaced......

——

Ay???

Chen Nian reacted suddenly.

Aren't these problems that I solved one by one in Project 22?

No wonder!

Chen Nian secretly sighed in his heart, he is worthy of being a person who went to college at the age of 15, not only has outstanding personal ability, but also has a unique method of poaching people......

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said:

"Mr. Yang, I understand what you mean."

"So what parts do you want me to be responsible for? Engine, material and airframe design? ”

"Clever! Just know that you kid is definitely not a nerd! ”

"Actually, I only need you to do three things."

"First, for the current stage of the F119 engine to come up with a transformation plan, so that it can adapt to the sea take-off and landing environment, of course, if the thrust can be a little larger, it is the best."

"Second, make suggestions on the aerodynamic layout of the J-20, participate in the discussion, and give the best plan."

"Third, on the basis of the original new materials, see if we can do some optimization, improve strength, and reduce weight."

"There are no hard and fast requirements for these three things, you can help if you can, and it doesn't matter if you can't help - but I'm sure you'll surprise us, because it's not that hard for you."

Chen Nian smiled bitterly when he heard it, what is it not difficult?

Even with the help of system analysis, it is actually still difficult, right?

——

However, it's not impossible to do it.

"Well, you convinced me...... But Mr. Yang, I want to ask, is it too early to consider the issue of carrier-based aircraft now? ”

"Our aircraft carrier...... You don't want to do it in advance, do you? ”

In the last life, Huaxia's first aircraft carrier, that is, the Liaoning, was only renovated at the end of 2005 and launched and delivered in 2012, and now it is only the beginning of 04.

“…… I thought you asked this in advance. ”

"The Varyag has already entered the dock, and the transformation process should also speed up, anyway, Ma Weiming has passed, and he will be in charge of the ship's integrated electrical system."

"We are now engaged in carrier-based aircraft, it is not too late, it is not too early."

"It should be said that it was just the right time."

"Understood."

Chen Nian scratched his head, he really hadn't heard of this news - but the report seemed to be thrown on his desk, but he was too busy in the past two days to look at it......

"Then this matter is settled?"

Yang Wei asked.

"It's settled."

"Okay, then I'll go and say hello to Lin Yongming, and I'll solve the problem of permission!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Wei simply hung up the phone, not giving Chen Nian time to regret it at all.

Chen Nian put down the phone with tears and laughter, and was in a trance for a while.

The Varyag entered the dock, and the carrier-based version of the J-20 was launched.

That shows that because of its own appearance, the process of some major projects is accelerating.

That's exactly what you want.

10,000 years is too long.

Within 20 years, he wants the pattern of this world to be reversed!
