Chapter 125: Over to You!
After Liu Lao deliberately emphasized that "we should pay attention to Chen Nian", the other members of the entire working group acted quickly and called Chen Nian one after another, inviting him to visit the site of the Deep Blue 16 project.
And Chen Nian's first reaction when he received the call was first surprise, followed by shock and anxiety.
You know, who is Liu Lao?
Known as the father of the Chinese Navy, he led more than 70 changes in the modernization of the navy.
He doesn't have a system, but he plays a bigger role than having a system.
The world remembers him for two main things.
The first is that he said, "If China does not engage in aircraft carriers, I will not turn a blind eye to death."
The second thing is that he put down his self-esteem and pride at the top level, stood on the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier in a low voice, and stepped over the shoulders of the ordinary seafarers on duty on the other side to see the internal structure of the helicopter that was claimed to be "forbidden to be touched by precision equipment"!
It can be said that he dedicated his life to the country and to the cause of the navy.
If Chen Nian knew that he was still holding his sick body to participate in the meeting of the Deep Blue 16 project at the age of 88, and was embarrassed and sighing about a gas turbine problem, I am afraid that he would have already rushed to the airport and arrived at the scene on the earliest plane.
What's more, he also specifically said his name.
——
Remembered by Liu Lao, this cannot but be said to be one of the supreme invisible glories in this country.
Therefore, he did not hesitate after determining the schedule, and directly booked a special plane with Chen Guo, and flew to Dalian in the afternoon of the same day.
Outside the headquarters of the Deep Blue No. 16 project near the Dalian shipyard, Chen Nian saw an old man who was already in a significantly poor mental state.
The other party seemed to have just gotten up, and his hair was a little messy, but he didn't care, and as soon as he saw Chen Nian walking in, he immediately stepped forward and held his hand.
"Chen Nian, Chen Nian, you just came? I've been looking forward to you for a long time! ”
Chen Nian's eyes were slightly sour, and he hurriedly replied:
"Old Liu, I'm late-over there at the 611 Institute, I helped with the matter of Jian-20, and it was delayed."
"No delay, no delay. I also knew you were busy, so I didn't call you before. ”
"You're going to get planes and missiles again, and now you're going to be an aircraft carrier, it's too busy."
"It's still summer vacation, and I originally wanted you to have a good rest, but I mentioned it yesterday, and they called you."
"I just woke up, and I heard that you came over, washed your face, and didn't comb your hair, don't say I'm snubbing!"
Liu Lao spoke with a strong accent, but Chen Nian could see that he tried his best to make his words clear, for fear that Chen Nian would not understand.
The people around him had already moved the stool, Chen Nian hurriedly beckoned him to sit down, and after the latter sat down, he took a few deep breaths before continuing:
"You probably don't recognize me yet, do you? I know you. ”
Chen Nian smiled and replied:
"Old Liu, if I didn't know you, I would have lived in vain for so many years."
"But you know me, I'm flattered."
"Hey! Don't play this kind of official tone at a young age! I still don't know you? Who hasn't heard anything about you now? ”
"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. You kid, that's good! ”
Looking at Liu Lao's sincere expression, Chen Nian was no longer polite and polite, but replied:
"It's just a small contribution, and it's far from you."
"But in the future, I will definitely surpass you!"
Hearing this, Liu Lao laughed.
He was indeed happy.
For an old man like him who has reached the end of his life, what is he most worried about?
In a word, there is no successor!
It's not that there is no successor to his own family property and resources, but that there is no successor to his own career!
It took him a lot of effort and time to finally develop the navy to this extent, but in fact, the road to go is still extremely long, even so long that he can't see the end at all.
However, compared with such a long time, his life is so short, so short that every day of the day, he counts the minutes.
Although he is no longer involved in specific work, he is always concerned about the latest developments.
Recently, he clearly felt that the development of the navy had entered a bottleneck period of slow progress.
So, he was in a hurry more than anyone else.
He was afraid that after he left, there would be no one like him to continue to cut through the thorns and thorns for this road of "going to the deep blue".
And now, Chen Nian has appeared.
And he said in front of himself that he wanted to surpass himself!
This is the greatest consolation to him.
After laughing for a while, Liu Lao once again held Chen Nian's hand tightly, and his expression slowly became serious.
"You have to have such ambition!"
"Only when one generation is stronger than the next can our navy have hope."
"Still."
Liu Lao changed his words and asked:
"You know it's the Navy 16 project, but you know what we called you here to do with you?"
Chen Nian nodded and replied solemnly:
"Yes."
"Flight refueling."
Liu Lao's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise:
"How did you guess?"
Chen Nian scratched his head embarrassedly and replied:
"When I first came over, I saw Ma Weiming and Mr. Ma."
"Hahahaha. Clever! I didn't think you knew that kid."
"That's right, I asked you to come this time because of the F119 engine you worked on before."
"You're familiar with that engine, because you designed it."
"So, we want you to help see if we can go on a flight to fuel project, build our own high-power gas turbine, and use this gas turbine on our own aircraft carrier!"
Chen Nian frowned slightly and did not answer immediately.
Liu Lao immediately noticed his expression, so he asked:
"Difficult?"
Chen Nian shook his head and replied:
"It's not that it's difficult, but I think that the F119 is not technically suitable for gas turbines - the precision is too high, the robustness is relatively poor, and the transformation is also difficult."
"I think that if you want to do it, it is better to further develop high-power gas turbines based on UGT-25000!"
"It's too difficult."
Liu Lao shook his head and sighed.
"We need at least a gas turbine with a power of more than 50 megawatts, but now the UGT-25000 has only 28 megawatts, which is a big difference, and there are many difficulties in materials, processes and design."
"If you want to break through, I'm afraid it will take at least 10 years, or even years."
"Our aircraft carrier can't wait that long, and so do I."
I can't wait that long.
Liu Lao didn't say this, but Chen Nian knew it.
So, he no longer sold Guanzi, but said bluntly:
"I'll fix it."
"Give me two months and I'll output a drawing of a new gas turbine with a power of 110 megawatts."
"You're going to solve it?? 110 MW power?? ”
Liu Lao's eyes widened in surprise.
His first reaction was to believe it, but then, he remembered those legends about Chen Nian.
As a result, the look of shock on his face immediately turned into a smile.
He stood up, tried to stand up straight, and then gently patted Chen Nian's shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone:
"That's it. Over to you! ”
