The space agency thinks that the idea of a nuclear power vehicle makes sense, but it is skeptical about the target of 3.4 tons to achieve a power of 38KW.

The greater the power, the greater the heat dissipation pressure, and it must be made movable.

Although it is good that Xinyuan Company has money, it is nuclear technology, and the nuclear battery of the space agency is still bought by Lucia.

They also know that Cheng Nankai, the current head of the Xinyuan nuclear department, has a resume that can only be regarded as a junior nuclear physicist, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to take on a big role.

Therefore, even if Xinyuan poached some less important nuclear experts from several universities, it was not stopped, because in their opinion, these people really can't make such an advanced nuclear propulsion plan, and it is hard to say whether such a strong nuclear power vehicle can come true.

But if there is, of course, it is very good, when the space agency will make a mobile base of about ten tons, there will be wheels to run around, astronauts can live in it, there is a transition module to go out of the cabin activities, if the nuclear power vehicle is hung up again, then there is basically no need to worry about energy.

The Aviation Development Commission can only continue to discuss and debate, anyway, it is next year's project, and the time is not so tight.

Lin Ju returned to the hotel, and then he heard about Masashi Okada.

For this old devil who wants to take refuge and has no way out, Lin Ju doesn't know how to deal with it for the time being.

There is naturally no shortage of technology, so this key point is whether the benefits brought by Okada can exceed the cost.

As the chief designer of the H3 rocket, although the H3 did fail again and again, many reasons cannot be blamed on Masashi Okada.

It's like the Alliance's N1 rocket bombed four times in a row, can the chief designer Korolev be blamed?

No, because the only high-thrust engine that Korolev can use is NK15, and the thrust is 150 tons, what if it is not connected in parallel? Besides, Lao Kedu had been driving to the west for a few years at that time, and his quality control in N1 might not be so bad.

JAXA is also, the investor is thinking about the H3 low-cost launch and the Falcon 9 rocket to grab the market, and the island country aerospace is not good, and if something happens, it will be all thanks to the chief engineer.

But in the end, it depends on how Okada Masashi is able.

Lin Ju thought about it, and called Guo Shen first, asking him to sign an external consultant contract for Okada first, and then try it out.

More than an hour later, Lin Ju saw a B+-level engineer +1 in the research institute, whose specialty was space propulsion technology.

B+ Grade! In addition to using upgrade cards, Lin Ju recruited the best engineer that was C+! It's usually nice to have a C.

If you want to upgrade an engineer from C to B+, it will cost hundreds of millions!

Now there are only 6 B+ and 10 B-level engineers in the whole company, and it is tempting to have one more B+ engineer.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the chief rocket engineer elected by the power of a country, and he still has some real skills in the end.

Moreover, after the H3 rocket launch failed, Okada was forced to admit his mistake, a 43-year-old man looks similar to a fifty or sixty-year-old man, which shows that he is still quite responsible.

Lin Ju thought about it all night, and the next day he came to the space bureau and entered the big guy's office.

"It's so early, Xiaolin, have you eaten? Go down for two buns? Our canteen is famous for its steamed buns and porridge. ”

The big guy was a little surprised by Lin Ju's arrival, he thought it was for the nuclear power generation vehicle, and felt that Lin Ju was too anxious about it.

But when Lin Ju told Okada Kuangshi about it, he let out an "oh" and fell into thought.

He didn't first ask why he wanted to keep Okada Masashi, but after thinking for a while, he said:

"Masashi Okada is a free man, so he naturally has a reason to choose his own work, and neither we nor JAXA have any reason to interfere, so as long as he wants, the big deal is to pay some severance damages to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

However, I still want to remind you that Xinyuan's status is relatively special now, and it may be risky to rashly accept foreign engineers. ”

Lin Ju: "To be honest, Okada's ability is very good, our engineers evaluated him and found that he was actually limited by JAXA, and his actual ability is about the same level as Guo Shen and Anderov. That's why we want to keep him, and he himself is completely voluntary;

We can promise that any of the projects in which Okada is involved will not involve the space agency and the military, will be completely civilian and commercial in nature, and his main direction should be space vehicles. ”

"That's good, but since his attitude is so resolute, it's better to ask him if he has any intention of naturalization, anyway, he should be unlikely to return to the island country."

"Well, I'll go and ask."

……

"Naturalization? Are you sure? Can I be a Chinese? ”

Okada tossed and turned in the temporary dormitory assigned to him by the B-class base for half the night, and was knocked on the door by Guo Shen early the next morning, and first asked him if he would like to become a naturalized citizen.

Although he didn't say whether he would accept him to join Xinyuan, Okada obviously knew that this was almost done, and asked excitedly three times.

"Mr. Okada, this is not mandatory, but it is just a question that we have asked for the convenience of our work in the future. If you work here as an expatriate, there are many inconveniences. ”

"Of course I do! But I've heard that it's hard to get citizenship in your country, isn't it...... Ah, you are such a big enterprise, it must be no problem, I have learned proficient Chinese since last year, I can also change my name, of course it is good to be a Chinese. ”

Guo Shen was a little surprised by Okada's excessive enthusiasm, and he also got a hidden message: This old boy is afraid that he had the idea of running away last year, right?

However, it is also a good thing that Okada is willing to cooperate, although it is indeed difficult to obtain Chinese nationality, but Okada's special status can be immigrated as a technical expert, and it can be handled through the fast track, as long as he becomes a Chinese citizen.

If you want to retain the nationality of an island country, you will have a lot of trouble with visas and foreign affairs.

Guo Shen immediately told Lin Ju the news, and then the big guy reported the matter.

Okada's affairs are big and small.

As the chief engineer of an important rocket of a national space agency, it does sound a bit big, but an ordinary island country scientist technical immigration, if you think about globalization for so many years, it is not a big deal.

Then this matter will wait for the above opinion, but the big guy told Lin Ju that this thing can probably be done, because it is completely normal in nature.

Of course, he also told one thing in particular, JAXA has a 10% or even 90% chance that Okada will ask for Okada's extradition on the grounds of stealing secrets, but as long as there is no evidence, it is nonsense, don't let Okada be caught.

Lin Ju knew this, and asked Guo Shen to talk to Okada when he turned around, maybe he would have to meet him in person, anyway, where could Xinyuan steal JAXA's technology?

While waiting for the response from the superiors, at 11 a.m. that day, the space shuttle Steadfast was launched at the Qiongzhou Cosmodrome.

Since it was a fully commercial manned mission, the atmosphere was quite relaxed, and the four crew members were even able to interact live on the computers in their seats 30 minutes before the launch.

Chen Jun vigorously brags to netizens how good Xin'an's new car is, and what kind of new technology application keeps drawing cakes;

Chen Weizhang and angrily answered all kinds of questions, as a traditional coal boss, what he wants most when he is old is prestige, and he keeps doing good deeds, just taking the opportunity to answer patiently;

He has learned the essence of the UP master in China: he can blow the infrastructure network and watermelon cheaply, and only at the last moment did he say goodbye to netizens.
