Chapter 452: A New Generation of Bureaus?
"Academician Sun Ze, the former deputy chief designer of the lunar exploration project."
Academician Yang Hong recommended a name, and continued: "He was appointed as the deputy chief designer of our Chang'e-1 satellite development team in 04, assisting in the overall technical management of the six subsystems of measurement and control, data transmission, antenna, mechanism and structure, thermal control, data management, and power supply and distribution. ”
"And in the field of electric propulsion, Academician Sun Ze also has a lot of research."
After a pause, he continued: "Originally, I wanted to recommend Academician Ye Jianpei, the chief designer of the lunar exploration project, but Academician Ye is now over eighty years old and has already retired to retire. ”
Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Thank you, I'll find out when I go back." ”
Yang Hong smiled and said, "In addition, Academician Xu, I still have a reluctant request." If this new aerospace engine is successfully developed, can you tell me? ”
"After all, some of its ideas and concepts are of great help to me as a researcher of electric propulsion."
Hearing this, Xu Chuan said with a smile: "Hey, I thought it was, this is no problem at all." ”
After thinking about it, he continued: "Why don't you do this, Academician Yang, how about you hold an honorary advisor position in the Xinghai Research Institute?" ”
Yang Hong thought for a while, nodded with a smile: "This is okay, if you encounter any problems in the direction of electric propulsion, you can also contact me by phone or email to see if you can help a little." ”
Xu Chuan smiled: "Then let's say it." ”
In the Jiuquan Aerospace Base, Xu Chuan and Yang Hong chatted for a long time and consulted a lot about the direction of the electric propulsion engine.
With the answer, he returned to Jinling.
Sitting in his office, Xu Chuan turned on the computer and recorded some of the information he had sorted out in his mind, but the importance of starting to rearrange his work.
After going to Beijing to find Academician Sun Ze, the deputy chief designer of the lunar exploration project, the next most important work is undoubtedly to study the mechanism in the KL-66 material.
To be honest, before going to the Jiuquan Space Base, Xu Chuan really didn't expect that his previous discovery in the KL-66 material would be further enhanced.
Originally, I went to study KL-66 materials, but I wanted to verify whether KL-66 materials are room-temperature superconducting materials for the rigorous identification that a scientific researcher should do.
And the new mechanism discovered later is just trying to study it to see if it can be used to enhance the critical magnetic field of other superconducting materials.
Now it seems that both miniaturized controlled nuclear fusion and aerospace engines are linked to this technology.
Just as Xu Chuan was thinking about arranging work, there was a knock on the door of the office, and he casually answered the invitation to enter, and it was Wen Yuanhang who walked in.
"Academician Xu, the project approval documents for the manned space project and the lunar exploration project have been approved." Holding a document bag in his hand, Wen Yuanhang walked over quickly, with some excitement in his tone.
"Huh? Let me see. ”
Xu Chuan raised his head, put down the pen in his hand and took the document bag from the other party's hand.
The establishment of the manned space project and the lunar exploration project is also a thing worth celebrating and joyful for him.
Unwrapping the file bag, inside is an official red-headed document.
"2021 China Manned Space and Lunar Exploration Project Project Approval Instructions"
After flipping through the documents, to Xu Chuan's surprise, the projects he thought would be two were unified into one.
Moreover, the project that was originally thought to be placed under the name of the Xinghai Research Institute is now not placed under the name of the Xinghai Research Institute, but directly divided into the name of the National Wu Academy like the previous Jinling controlled nuclear fusion project.
Not only that, but he was previously in charge of nuclear fusion engineers, and the overall person in charge of the project was not finalized in the document.
Putting down the document, Xu Chuan looked at Wen Yuanhang with a hint of doubt, this Director Wen, who maintained communication between the Xinghai Research Institute and the high-level management, must know the reason.
Noticing Xu Chuan's gaze, Wen Yuanhang smiled and said, "That's the case, Academician Xu, about this manned space project and lunar exploration project. After deliberation among the senior leaders, it was decided to unify them into one project, and let me explain it to you. ”
"The main reason for this is that the current strategic core of our country is still in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, whether it is building a cross-regional power grid with other neighboring countries, or popularizing the construction of domestic controllable fusion power stations, which is the important thing at present."
"After all, at present, it is more important for us to be down-to-earth and focus on the current development of the country. However, after a meeting and discussion among senior leaders, we believe that your opinion is equally important, and the exploration of outer space is also our future. So there was a compromise and the manned space project and the manned lunar landing project were merged. ”
"As for the person in charge, I originally selected you according to the previous plan, but after a meeting and discussion with senior leaders, I decided to ask your opinion."
"The main reason is that this project will involve some international competition in the future, and there may be some problems such as bad public opinion."
Hearing this, Xu Chuan immediately became keenly aware of something and asked, "Is it ready to start the competition track of the manned space and manned lunar exploration project?" ”
Wen Yuanhang smiled, patted a little fart and said, "Academician Xu is still very good, so he guessed it directly." ”
After a slight pause, he continued: "As you guessed, after a meeting and discussion of senior leaders, we plan to use the space strategy to contain those Western countries. ”
"It has been a month and a half and almost two months since the emergence of controlled nuclear fusion technology, and our dawn is ready to be officially connected to the grid for power generation, and it is impossible for other countries not to take any action in this regard."
"According to our intelligence, whether it is the United States, Tsarist Russia, or the European Union, the cherry blossom country, South Korea and other countries, it can be said that as long as they have the ability to independently carry out controllable nuclear fusion projects, they have begun to promote their own controllable fusion demonstration reactor projects."
"We are currently collecting the progress of each country, and it is not yet possible to know where they have come. However, as you said before, Academician Xu, on the basis of the feasibility of the composite tokamak route, as long as other countries invest heavily in R&D funds, manpower and material resources, they will one day develop their own fusion technology. ”
"Even though they don't have you, they have a lot of experience in the controlled fusion technology route, and if they make up their minds, they can always catch up in the future."
"Therefore, while grasping the advantages we currently have and expanding our international influence, it is necessary to open up another line of competition, pull our opponents into it, and try our best to delay their development and research."
"Therefore, the importance of manned spaceflight and manned lunar landing projects has been raised to a higher level and entered the national key strategic engineering projects."
"In this project, we will definitely release and disclose some goals and words with the nature of 'flickering' in the future."
"For example, manned lunar landings, fire and other plans, including the establishment of permanent living bases on the moon and Mars, mining minerals and other goals, in order to prompt opponents to invest more money and energy in manned spaceflight."
"When these goals are hit, and they are not achieved, it will definitely cause some damage to the reputation and prestige of the general manager. Therefore, after deliberation at the top level, it has been decided not to appoint the general manager for the time being, so let me ask for your opinion. ”
"After all, both for you and for your motherland, your excellent academic reputation and reputation are very valuable assets, as well as glory and pride."
Hearing this, Xu Chuan suddenly understood why such a thing as aerospace engineering would be directly responsible for the return of the Wu Academy, and why the general person in charge would be blank.
Do you want him to be the chief designer to fool other countries for the country?
A new generation of seats?
Sounds interesting.
PS: The second is to ask for a monthly pass
