The status of the C832 is undoubted, although there are countless machines in the base that are much more technical than it, but once the C832 enters the market, it will definitely be turned upside down.

Not only passenger transport, but also civilian freight is a huge market.

Not to mention, this is a special plane for Air China's leaders to travel in advance.

However, of course, it is not this prototype, and the task of the prototype is to carry out high-intensity test flights, find out the design flaws and flight envelopes of the aircraft, and specify the flight safety indicators.

The life of a prototype is usually very short, and the body not only has to withstand various tosses and turns of test pilots, but also often modifies, and the shorter ones are scrapped in less than a few years.

But the superior has been able to imagine the image of the blue and white painted C832 special plane, and the Boeing Airbus aircraft have their own unique style, the style of the C832 gives people the feeling of atmosphere, although in fact its fuselage diameter is indeed a little larger than the same level of aircraft, but the layout of the outside of the fuselage makes it look larger.

In addition, the windshield design is also very careful, so that the aircraft looks more solemn from the front, which is obviously deliberate by the design team.

The design team took him directly into the interior of the airliner, which has basically been installed except for the seats, and the design of the two-aisle wide body makes the interior space very spacious.

"This plane is going to fly soon, right?"

"The date for the first flight has been set, and it will take more than ten days to test, but it should be able to make the first flight on May 1."

After getting the answer of the chief engineer of C832, the superior was very happy, stayed in the cabin for a long time, and finally commented that "this is an advanced large passenger plane", and then the film crew that followed was divided into personnel to prepare for the reshooting of the cabin picture, but I don't know how many mosaics will be played when it is sent.

In addition to the C832, the superiors of the Storm and the YM-12 die forging machine also went to take a deep look and gave a very high evaluation.

After completing a very satisfactory visit, the group stayed at the base for dinner, and a passenger plane will land directly at the base and return to Beijing after dinner.

During the time to take a nap after dinner, Xinyuan's senior management and several leaders tacitly found a quiet cubicle.

The superiors got straight to the point, and the first thing to talk about was semiconductors.

"The Commission of Science and Technology has talked with several manufacturers, and they have asked for a lot of patent authorizations and good things from them, does Xinyuan really not need it?"

Lin Ju knew about the PY transaction at the upper level, and he also had a copy of the list base he obtained, but he didn't open his mouth without the things needed by the base.

Again receiving an affirmative answer, one leader nodded:

"In June, there will be a comprehensive support for private aerospace, your is pure financial support, in addition to the central and local subsidies for high-tech enterprises, local policy support funds, there will be almost 22 billion funds in place within 8 months.

Hey, in fact, we took advantage, and nearly half of it is what you deserve. ”

"No, no, no, that's enough for Xinyuan."

Lin Ju and Ye Changsi looked at each other, knowing that the money for the supersonic business jet had been settled.

This will almost increase the funding of 2017 by more than 10 billion, which can accelerate many plans.

Next is some domestic and foreign arrangements that require Xinyuan's cooperation, as well as the emphasis on strengthening the defense and secrecy of the Qingshan base, because it is a secret meeting, so the discussion is very fast, or the plan has been made for a long time, but it is only confirmed now.

Before getting on the plane, the last words of the superior were:

"Xiaolin, personal problems should be solved as soon as possible."

Lin Ju: "......"

……

"LeTV (300104) received a notice from the controlling shareholder Jia Yueting that all the shares of LeTV directly held by Jia Yueting were frozen."

"Faraday Future Aerospace broke the news internally: the 30 billion factory is empty, and there are less than 50 workers."

"Sources say LeEco's major shareholders have been reducing their stakes over the past year."

“……”

On April 10, the domestic Internet industry giant, Faraday Future Aerospace, broke the news, and the stock price plummeted overnight and fell into an investigation crisis.

Ordinary people are still in shock, only Lin Ju knows that the collapse of LeTV is three months earlier than the original world line, and he guesses that it is likely that Boss Jia wants to get involved in aerospace in addition to cars, and the capital chain is broken early.

When Lin Ju was in the capital, he also met with Boss Jia, and the other party faced the domestic ...... The world's first private astronaut also has no intention of making a big splash, and even hopes that Xinyuan will invest in Faraday Future.

Along with LeTV's fall, there is also SpecaX's Starship SN8 prototype.

The prototype completed a 15-kilometer altitude test flight, but the landing gear broke due to the speed of landing, and it burned for a few minutes before exploding into flames.

SN8 is already relatively close to the official version in Musk's mind, but it is only the structure, and the interior is still far behind.

At the same time, the B6 heavy booster has already been produced, it is the first stage of the Starship launch, and a full 33 "Raptor Generation" engines are installed, with a total thrust of up to 6,100 tons.

Because of the hurry, Musk did not have time to wait for the rougher Raptor generation to upgrade to the second generation of Raptor before mass production, but directly established the production line of the Raptor generation, and a total of 58 engines have been produced in the past two months, which is very close to the goal of one per Nissan.

NACA's aid engineers were very worried about the B6, the rocket body technology is good and strong, but the 33 engines are connected in parallel, and there is no protective partition......

Initially, NACA recommended separating the 33 engines with Kevlar fiber bulkheads to prevent one engine failure from affecting the other, as in the case of the N1 rocket, with protective plates that would cover the bottom of the rocket.

But Lao Ma refused this proposal after calculating the man-hours, and simply and rudely arranged more than 30 engines next to each other, installed them at 20+10+3, and the outermost nozzles were even about to be next to each other.

The thrust spacing of the nine Merlin engines of the Falcon 9 is wider than this, and it is still an engine with more than 80 tons of thrust, which is an engine with a thrust of 185 tons!

The B6 booster was shipped to SpecaX's new launch pad under NACA's concerns, and did not occupy the two launch stations at the Kennedy Space Center, after all, the B6 booster contained 4,000 tons of liquid oxygen methane, and if the two launch pads 39A and 39B were blown up, the SLS rocket would have no usable launch site......

The B6 booster weighs about 4,000 tons, and the upper stage can have a mass of 800 tons, even if the Starship spacecraft is not installed, it can be changed to the first stage of the giant rocket, and the second and third stages of the Saturn V are only 600 tons.

NACA has calculated that as long as the B6 is installed with a second stage, it can achieve at least 175 tons of low Earth orbit capacity (without recycling the first stage), and there are 120 tons in the recovery state, which is equivalent to a Saturn V.
