Chapter 172: Upgrade!
Chang'an, Western University of Technology.
Chen Nian sat at his desk and began to review the progress of the task he was currently working on, using the "task manager" he had designed earlier.
While Chen Guo was running between various departments and using the "lure" method to incorporate the Tiens project into the Spark team, Chen Nian had not been idle.
First of all, he had an in-depth communication with Ma Weiming, identified several key problems in the current ship comprehensive power system, and sorted out the adjustments that need to be made in terms of power if the "Tiens" is to be transformed into the "Tianjing".
As he expected, the power consumption method of the Hesitant Sky Whale is not too complicated, so the core technology involved is not too much.
Even with Ma Weiming's current research results, all modules can basically be covered.
The remaining ones that really can't be solved in the short term are the DC bus technology and active front-end frequency conversion technology that he had thought of before.
The equipment analysis requirements involved in these two technologies are not high, and Chen Nian made the decision to analyze after thinking for a while.
It only takes 1.2 source points to complete the analysis of these two technologies.
Compared with his current source point accumulation of 8.6, it can be said that it is not worth mentioning.
Then, after considering the progress of the Deep Blue 16 project, Chen Nian divided the remaining source points into three parts.
Among them, the 5 source points are reserve source points, which will not be used, and are mainly used to deal with various emergencies, so that they can be used to break the situation when special events occur and they have a major demand for a specific technology.
The other 2.4 points, 1.2 points, he intends to invest in the upgrade of the Sky Whale.
It is mainly used in mud pumps, positioning systems, and ship stabilization systems.
These three technologies are extremely malleable, and even the ship stabilization system can be used for the construction of offshore platforms in the future, and if the breakthrough continues, the construction of cross-sea bridges can also be used.
The other 1.2 points were divided into two parts.
One intends to point out the submerged arc welding technology on the deck of the aircraft carrier, and the other is to point the composite braking system technology of the high-speed rail.
These two correspond to the key nodes in the current progress of the Deep Blue 16 project and the high-speed rail project, which can be said to promote the progress of the project to the greatest extent.
After sorting out the plan, Chen Nian did not hesitate and immediately began to analyze.
It was the first time he had analyzed many different kinds of technology at the same time, and he was even a little hesitant before he officially started.
Could it be that so much knowledge and such a large span are mixed together, and your brain can't bear it?
Is it possible that excessive knowledge input in a short period of time will cause confusion instead?
This is indeed a real risk, but taking this opportunity, Chen Nian also has a special idea:
He wanted to test how far he had grown in the past two years.
It stands to reason that people's thinking logic ability and human brain sensitivity can be improved through long-term training, and continuous high-intensity learning should not have any effect.
In fact, in the previous analysis, he can already feel the change in himself.
Originally, the "knowledge infusion" caused by a single analysis could give him a headache, but after the last few analyses, he felt that his tolerance and understanding speed were constantly accelerating.
Perhaps, the role of the system is much more than "knowledge infusion".
In the process of perfusion, those information are like the internal force in martial arts to expand the meridians, and expand their nerve pathways, so that their basic attributes have also improved?
Chen Nian took a deep breath and began the analysis of the first technique.
DC bus technology and related equipment.
Without any difficulty, Chen Nian only felt a gentle flow of information flowing into his brain, and then, in just a few minutes, he had quickly comprehended and integrated all this information.
Immediately afterwards, there is the edge of the front-end frequency conversion technology.
Again, it did not cause any discomfort.
At this point, Chen Nian had already begun to get excited.
And what happened next surprised him even more.
Mud pumps, ship positioning systems, submerged arc welding equipment and technology, composite braking systems.
One by one, technical information continued to flow into his brain, and he didn't feel any pressure the whole time.
I've really gotten stronger!
Chen Nian stood up from his chair suddenly, he vaguely felt a slight dizziness, but compared to the severe pain after the previous analysis, the current situation was much better!
This is definitely great news.
Not long ago, when Chen Nian was wandering around science fiction forums looking for inspiration, he was worried about something.
That is, when you continue to move towards a higher goal in the future, the equipment you analyze is more complex, and the source point consumption is more, can your poor brain withstand the powerful overload that will definitely come.
But now, that concern has an answer:
My tolerance is also constantly improving.
According to the current test results, the technical analysis of the source point consumption below 1 point should no longer have any impact on itself.
However, further exploration is needed on what the specific upper limit is.
However, based on previous experience, it is estimated that the upper limit of what you can afford should have been extended to about 10 points.
This gives him more options.
When a technology can't be broken down in a short period of time, or is completely incomprehensible with current technology, you don't have to be helpless.
Coupled with the recent acceleration of the speed of technological fission, coupled with the source points brought by learning, the growth rate of his daily source points has reached an average of 0.25 points per day at this time.
In just 4 days, you can get a source point.
Is it better than robbing a bank!?
Chen Nian proudly circled around the chair twice, and at this moment, he had a feeling that the world was in my hands.
This is like a little Karami who has been struggling for a long time on the food and clothing line, and one day suddenly found that he still has the potential to be a mourner.
Dude is rich!
What to do?
Consumption is impossible, and this level of progress is not so good that he loses his mind.
However, it's good to be addicted to it.
So, Chen Nian once again opened the most frequently visited science fiction forum, and then his fingers flew, knocking down a title full of gunpowder:
"Hehe, there is no sci-fi equipment worth looking forward to in the near future, I don't accept it!"
At the same time that Chen Nian was opening the brush technology and testing his own progress, on the other hand, the Tiens project had been officially upgraded and included in the Spark team.
After signing the confidentiality agreement, Zhang Guanfeng finally knew the organization to which Chen Guo belonged now, and he was still a little unimpressed, thinking that probably the Spark Group was a group directly supported by the central government, similar to the Heavy Equipment Office, which coordinated the resources of various departments and organized the cooperation of various departments.
But soon, he realized that he had been wrong.
The reason is simple, as a representative of the Sky Whale project, he participated in the regular working meeting of the Spark team for the first time.
And after hearing what was being discussed at the meeting, he was almost stupid.
What the?
You guys got the F119 engine?
J-10 and J-22 too?
The new digital array radar too? The Thunderbolt series of missiles too? Electronic jamming pods too?
So is the J-20ABC model, which has been hot lately?
Even AGT110, high-speed rail??
Are you kidding?!
Is this the work of a group that can only mobilize resources?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
And continue to listen, Zhang Guanfeng also confirmed his guess.
In fact, the departments mentioned in these projects are not providers of technology at all, but recipients of technology.
In other words, it was this mysterious Spark group that provided the technology first, and then it was up to these departments to operate the application.
No wonder.
No wonder when Chen Guo found himself, he was so confident that he would say, "We will provide the technology and resources."
I thought he was bragging, but the truth is, he's just simply recounting a fact.
Frog at the bottom of the well.
At this moment, a strange thought suddenly popped into Zhang Guanfeng's mind:
Damn, these people from Starfire are so strong, and the technology is unreasonable, we won't pick up some alien spaceships, right?
But even if you pick up an alien spaceship, it won't be able to achieve such an outrageous effect as the Starfire team
He listened to the entire regular meeting almost in a daze, and he didn't react until Chen Guo on the stage announced the adjournment of the meeting.
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, he hurriedly followed, and stopped Chen Guo with a humble expression and said:
"Professor Chen, Professor Chen, stay here."
Chen Guo paused, and when he turned around and saw Zhang Guanfeng running towards him, a knowing smile appeared on his face.
Harm, this guy is probably shocked.
It's okay, it's like this when I first came in, and I'm not so sensitive after a few more shocks
"Professor Zhang, what's wrong?"
"Don't don't, don't call me professor, I don't think I can afford to call Lao Zhang."
Zhang Guanfeng carefully followed Chen Guo's footsteps and continued:
"That's right, Professor Chen."
"At the previous meeting, I saw that all departments reported on the progress of the project and also raised the current difficulties of the project."
"I want to ask, will these difficulties be solved by the Spark team?"
"Of course, why else would they bring it up?"
Chen Guo asked with some confusion.
It stands to reason that the logistics side has already trained him, why is this process still unclear?
As if he saw Chen Guo's thoughts, Zhang Guanfeng hurriedly explained:
"I know I know, that's what our rules of procedure say, but I've always felt . It's a little too much. Uh, it's too dreamy, so I didn't dare to take it too seriously. ”
"I originally planned to mention it at the meeting just now, but after all, our project is new, and everyone doesn't understand the situation, so I'm afraid that if I can't pass it, it will be embarrassing."
"So, I'd like to talk to you first."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Guo understood it.
Good guy, this brother really hasn't kept up with the rhythm of Starfire.
He's still using the same old-fashioned way of thinking to deal with Xinghuo's work.
How did the previous project teams, research institutes, and various administrative agencies work?
Every time it comes to making a major decision, the so-called "discussion" is never a discussion, but a debriefing; The so-called "decision-making meeting" is not a decision-making meeting, but a results briefing meeting.
In the tide of formalism, much of the decision-making process is suppressed under the surface, that is, if you want to discuss, find someone in private.
Wait for the results to be reported.
This way of working is called "conducive to unity" at best, but if it is not good, it is pure inaction and lack of responsibility.
Although Zhang Guanfeng is a technical strongman, he has worked in the agency for a long time and is very familiar with this system, so it is not surprising that he will do "not speak at the meeting and find himself alone after the meeting".
However, the Spark team can't tolerate this kind of behavior.
According to Chen Guo's understanding, Xinghuo is an absolutely powerful institution, and execution is its lifeline.
The sole goal of its existence is to promote the maximum development of technology in the shortest possible time.
Outside of this goal, all other factors have to be sidelined.
So, Chen Guo said bluntly:
"Professor Zhang, our projects have just been merged, and you may not know much about the situation."
"But what I want to tell you is that Starfire is different from other departments, we don't have so many unspoken rules here."
"Since the rules of procedure have been agreed upon in the process, it will be done in accordance with the rules of procedure."
"If there is a difficulty, it will be raised at the meeting on the spot, whether it will work or not, someone will go back and discuss it."
"All you have to do is expose the problem realistically and call in artillery support."
"That's why we included the Tiens project in our planning and didn't change the commander – you were very frank at the time, and we needed that kind of person."
In just a few words, Zhang Guanfeng thoroughly realized the iron-blooded characteristics of the Spark team.
Orders are prohibited, and facts are realistic.
If you don't play false, you just do it hard.
He couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Probably it is this characteristic that can make the projects under the whole group develop so quickly.
Otherwise, even if you can come up with technology, it will not be possible to execute it so smoothly
Thinking of this, Zhang Guanfeng hurriedly said:
"This time it's my problem, I'm thinking by the same degree."
"However, I do have a bit of a difficulty here, so it's best not to wait, you see if you make an exception, let's talk."
While talking, the two had already arrived at Chen Guo's temporary office, Chen Guo closed the door casually, sighed and said:
"Let's not take this as an example."
"Tell me, what are the main problems?"
Zhang Guanfeng perked up and hurriedly spoke:
"The problem of the ship's integrated power system, if you refine it, is two."
"One is DC bus technology, and the other is active front-end frequency conversion technology."
"Understood, I'll ask you."
Chen Guo said confidently.
These two issues have been discussed as early as when Chen Nian proposed the idea of the Sky Whale project, and arrangements have been made.
Now as long as you call Chen Nian and Ma Weiming respectively, you can know the latest progress.
So, he picked up the landline on his desk and dialed Chen Nian's phone first.
The phone rang and he spoke:
"Hey Xiao Nian, I'm Chen Guo."
"Busy? Have you eaten? ”
"Haven't eaten yet? Hurry up and eat, it's past 12 o'clock. ”
"What? Eat in the cafeteria again? Can that stuff be nutritious? ”
"Got an appointment? Wang Jiancheng? Okay"
"That's the case, let me ask you, who are you going to do about DC bus technology and active front-end frequency conversion technology? Is it Mr. Ma's side? ”
"Oh, oh."
"Understood, you can send it. Pay attention to rest, don't let me catch you and stay up late, people have complained to me, saying that they can't persuade you. ”
"There's no such rush! Don't give me such a reason! ”
"Okay, okay, you go, hang up."
With a snap, the phone hung up.
Then, Chen Guo turned to Zhang Guanfeng and said:
"Solved, I'll send it to you later."
Zhang Guanfeng stood in place dumbfounded, he could barely believe his ears.
What does it mean to be "solved"?
I don't know how many people have been tackling these two technologies for many years, but they have not achieved breakthrough results.
And you, a phone call that is full of nonsense and the key problem is solved with just one sentence???
Oh, my God.
The other side of the phone.
Who the hell is it?!?
