Chapter 287: How did I, an undergraduate, become the director of the supercomputing center?
The two of them talked about the second half of the night that day.
In the end, Yang Shuyu was persuaded and decided to report upwards and invest the funds that had been applied for but were in a vacant state into the research and development of a medium-sized early warning platform.
In the early years, AWACS aircraft, even if it was only a wedge-tail structure, were obviously more fragrant than buying a second-hand bomber of a regiment.
After all, the former is to solve the problem of whether there is a problem, while the latter can only be regarded as a limited technical upgrade at best.
And you only need to spend the local currency, and you don't need to use the precious foreign exchange quota.
Figure 22M3 only, not Figure 160.
However, when Chang Haonan almost habitually said the name of the air police 200H, Yang Shuyu immediately raised his hand to interrupt him.
"No, it's not a good name."
"Huh?"
Such a reaction directly made Chang Haonan stunned, and his brain thought about it quickly and didn't understand what was wrong.
In his previous life, he had never heard of any particular naming on the part of the Navy.
"In the past, most of those planes were developed for the Air Force, so when it comes to the model used by the Naval Aviation, it is enough to add an H to the end to indicate the Navy, but this time it is the same as the J-7, but our Navy paid for research and development, and we can't name it in this way."
Yang Shuyu left the back of the seat with his upper body and said very solemnly:
"The model we use is called the Air Police 200, and if the Air Force wants to equip it in the future, let that model be called the Air Police 200K!"
There was a sense of joy in the tone of turning over the serf and singing.
Regarding the idea of competing for even such small details between the military branches, although Chang Haonan does not understand it, he can accept it.
Anyway, it's the uncle who gives the money.
He didn't have to worry too much about these things in previous projects, but this one is different.
You have to hang the title of deputy chief engineer.
In fact, in addition to the Tu-22M3, another introduction that Chang Haonan wanted to prevent was the two S300F (Reeve M) air defense systems that were later installed on Type 051C destroyers.
The 051C model, in the original timeline, was mainly used as a means of technical backup and risk sharing, and was put into service almost simultaneously with the 052C, so as to ensure that even if the latter really went wrong, the Huaxia Navy would not run out of ships.
From the perspective of the time, this idea of double insurance is of course no problem and necessary.
But for Chang Haonan, who is very sure that there will be no problems with the Sea Star radar system, spending hundreds of millions of dollars just for a double insurance that must be useless is indeed a bit too extravagant.
Of course, 051C has another function, which is to ensure that China's technical route in the direction of steam turbines does not appear to be broken, and pave the way for the future aircraft carrier power.
It's just that this role doesn't have to be done at such a big cost.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, his current main business is still limited to the aviation industry, so the problems thrown by Yang Shuyu are also related to aviation, so Chang Haonan has not been able to find a suitable opportunity to divert the topic throughout the whole process.
I'll have to talk about it later when I have a chance.
According to the original plan, Chang Haonan should fly back to Yanliang the next day with the people from the 14th Institute of Electrical Science and the Test Flight Institute, and then turn around to Rongcheng to cooperate with the project team of Project 10 to complete the active stability control system mentioned earlier.
But the next morning, he suddenly received a call from Du Yishan.
"Xiao Chang, how is your test going in Donglai?"
In this era, a small-scale friction with the air will definitely not be publicized in a big way, plus the incident has only happened for less than 24 hours, and even the tone has not yet been set, so even Du Yishan, who has enough secrecy, was not notified of this matter, and only thought that Chang Haonan was testing the electronic warfare aircraft according to the original plan.
"It has been successfully completed and the results are exactly as expected."
Chang Haonan also made a long story short, and did not reveal too much about the past few days on the phone.
"That's good."
Du Yishan's voice seemed to have some trembling feeling of suppressed excitement:
"After you deal with the matter over there, put other things off first, go back to the capital, there is a very important event during this time, the time has not been decided, you may need to attend at any time, if you can't put down the relevant research, you can bring it back to the school to do."
"But ......"
Chang Haonan originally wanted to say that it would be more convenient to be with the No. 10 project team in Rongcheng, but as soon as the words came out, Du Yishan continued:
"Because of your work during this time, the school has realized the importance of numerical simulation in the field of aircraft research, so at my suggestion, at the beginning of this year, our school purchased a supercomputer and established a high-performance computing center, which will soon start trial operation......
"Teacher, I'll go back to school as soon as possible."
It can be called a very important activity by Du Yishan, probably not a casual thing, and the level has to be similar to the last time in Sandaomen, so I have to go back.
It has nothing to do with any new supercomputers.
……
Due to the temporary modification of the itinerary, Chang Haonan waited for another day in Dongleiduo before returning to the capital the next morning on a lifetime free United Airlines flight.
It was Du Yishan who personally took him back to school.
"Teacher, what exactly do you mean by that important activity?"
In fact, Chang Haonan was more concerned about what the supercomputer level in the school was, but after meeting and greeting, he felt a little too impatient to speak directly, so he decided to find a separate topic first.
Of course, by the way, satisfy your curiosity.
"It's nothing, it's just that the state wants to carry out an activity that can reflect the new era of contemporary youth, and if you attend as a youth representative of our school, you may have a speech or something at that time."
With intuition, Chang Haonan thought that Du Yishan did not reveal the whole truth to him.
But he also knew that he couldn't ask anything if he forcibly asked, and besides, this kind of thing couldn't be harmful to himself, so he just gave up, and just took advantage of the situation to lead the topic to supercomputing.
"When will the high-performance computing center you told me about yesterday be opened?"
"It's currently being commissioned, is it expected...... At the end of the month, the computing center is tentatively hosted by our college, and after your Ph.D. is enrolled, I plan to let you take charge of this matter. ”
"Of course, you are a full-time doctor, and there is no way to give you a fixed establishment, so you can only manage it as an acting director at present."
Du Yishan's answer was directly beyond Chang Haonan's expectations.
"Teacher, it's okay for me to use supercomputing, but let me manage this computing center, I'm afraid the energy will be ......"
"I know what you mean."
Du Yishan turned his head and moved his gaze from the scenery outside the car window to Chang Haonan:
"There is a special administrator in charge of the specific administrative work, which is similar to the current computer room model, but the access is stricter, and you don't have to worry about it, but the identity of the acting director is my decision to give you the next, which is good for you."
"We are the country's first supercomputer operated by colleges and universities alone, it is a benchmark, I estimate that there will be other schools to follow up soon, each university in charge of the supercomputing center, basically will be their trump card major, when the time will inevitably come to our Beijing Airlines to learn from experience and research, you hang the name of this acting director, it is more convenient to have a good relationship with these peers in this process."
"Although you are my student, it stands to reason that you will have some natural advantages in this area, but you achieved results too early and too quickly, and I think my body is quite strong, so if you want to go further as soon as possible, you still have to consider building your own network, do you understand what I mean?"
These words made Chang Haonan also can't help but become serious, and immediately nodded:
"Understood, teacher."
"It's good to see, you have a lot of ability, and although you are not so sophisticated in dealing with people, at least you are not as arrogant and disgusting as some people, and sometimes I don't think you are only in your early twenties."
After making sure that Chang Haonan understood his intentions, Du Yishan's tone also relaxed a lot:
"In short, no matter what, if you have such conditions, as long as you can win over some supporters a little, it will be easy to go wider and wider in the future."
