Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 143

(This book has been on the shelves for a week, all ordered in 2018, breaking the 2000 mark for the first time, thank you for your support!)
The leader's joking comments made Zhong Cheng feel proud and pressured. He had to work harder to be worthy of the leader's trust and respect.

That night, he and Dean Ye went back to Ye's house for dinner.

Aunt Zhao told him that he should stop going to the guest house when he comes to the capital for business trips.

She came directly to Ye's house for food and lodging, and she was about to get angry when she saw her again.

Ye Wenxin said that if Zhong Cheng should be given a key, it would be even more difficult.

Aunt Zhao said, there is nothing wrong with it.

He really gave Zhong Cheng the key of the Ye family, and Zhong Cheng accepted it without any politeness.

Ye Wenxin couldn't laugh or cry, saying that Zhong Cheng just looked stupid, but he was actually a thief in his heart!
Zhong Cheng replied, you are right about neither, I don't look stupid on the outside, and I don't have a thief in my heart.

Aunt Zhao couldn't close her mouth with a smile, saying that Zhong Chengcheng was the pistachio of their family.

Zhong Cheng sweated profusely, this was the first time he had heard this statement.

But I was secretly thinking in my heart, could it be that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more she likes him?

After dinner, Dean Ye talked to him.

Dean Ye told him that the design plan of the Suzaku fighter has been approved, and he can start to implement the manufacturing plan immediately, striving to equip the first batch of Suzaku fighters to the frontline troops next year.

Because of the appearance of the Suzaku fighter, the country has decided to terminate the research and development and production of other fighters, and put all hopes on the Suzaku fighter. Zhong Cheng shoulders a great responsibility.

Moreover, the leader also gave Zhong Cheng another task, that is, in the process of manufacturing the Suzaku fighter, he hoped that Zhong Cheng would consider developing heavy bombers and transport aircraft, so as to make up for all the gaps in China's air military power.

Zhong Cheng accepted the order happily. The Suzaku fighter was already a 30-ton heavy fighter, and there was no technical obstacle to the heavy bomber and transport aircraft of several hundred tons.

It's just a matter of design.

Moreover, the manufacturing technology of heavy military transport aircraft is basically similar to that of large civil aviation aircraft, and it can be manufactured in one production plant.

Red Star's dream of manufacturing civil aviation aircraft can also be realized ahead of schedule.

As for whether the 804 Institute has become a professional aircraft research institute and robbed other people's jobs, Zhong Cheng said that he really couldn't think about these issues.

Someone will think about it.

After talking with Dean Ye, he only had a few words with Ye Wenxin, and then he said goodbye and set off on his way home.

Going thousands of miles to the military plane, Guanshan is like flying!
Back in Beishan, Zhong Cheng immediately held a plenary meeting of the Donghai Project.

At the meeting, he announced the news that the state approved the production plan of the Suzaku fighter, and the second phase of the East China Sea Project can be fully launched.

After discussing with Cheng Zhidong, Wang Xing and others, he determined that the first Suzaku fighter will be rolled off the production line on December 12 next year, and the first batch of Suzaku fighters will be officially delivered in the first half of the following year.

Because some work is already ahead, the progress is not too tight.

The participants all said that there is no problem, and they promise to complete the task!
In the past half a year, the huge civil engineering project of the second phase of the East China Sea Project has been basically completed, and most of the planned series of factory facilities have been completed, and the Suzaku fighter is waiting for the plan.

The second phase of the Jingwei UAV project has moved into the new factory area in advance, and the model subdivision of the Jingwei UAV is also in progress.

At the same time as the mass production of the original model, the first modified model, Jingwei UAV II, has come out.

This is a reduced version of the Jingwei drone with a diameter of only 1.2 meters, and its performance has also been greatly reduced, but it is unique in police use.

Equipped with only one Zhurong electric pusher and one laser cannon, the maximum speed is 0.2 times the speed of sound, about 240 kilometers per hour, but the cost has dropped to less than 50 yuan.

It can be equipped to police and security systems on a large scale, and it can also provide assistance to the Jingwei UAV-[-] in the border guards.

The security department of Red Star Company took the lead in equipping and trialling 100 units, and the effect was very good.

Regarding the explosive growth of Red Star Company's "site", the Security Department no longer needs to feel understaffed.

The biggest advantage of this drone is still in the automatic navigation system.

To perform patrol tasks in a fixed area, as long as the patrol route and the handling plan for abnormal situations are set up, it is not necessary for each aircraft to be commanded by remote control.

These tireless, never distracted drones are the best security guards!

The company's plan is to equip the Security Department with [-] Jingwei Unmanned Fighter Type II in advance, and then cooperate with Yang Jian's screening system. At that time, Red Star Company may be one of the safest places in the world.

After the Red Star Company's pilot project is successful, it will be equipped to the garrison troops in the capital. It will require tens of thousands of aircraft, and it will be unimaginable to spread it to the whole country.

The Jingwei UAV Type II should be the most numerous model in the Jingwei UAV family.

As for the civilian version that Wang Xing plans to implement, Zhong Cheng has not agreed to it for the time being, because the risk of leaking the secret is too great.

Although the current Jingwei unmanned fighters are equipped with self-destruct devices, and each fighter is tracked on the central server, large-scale use in the civilian field still cannot guarantee the confidentiality requirements.

In fact, UAVs with superior performance still have a large market in the civilian field. Surveying and mapping, exploration, high-risk operations, and even the logistics industry all have a wide range of uses.

Zhong Chengcheng once thought about using drones to deliver express.

As long as the customer installs something like a small basket on the window sill, the drone can deliver the goods directly from the window to every household.

Coupled with the automated logistics center, the distribution efficiency will reach the level of delivery to the door in a few minutes after the order is placed.

But he thought that this kind of drone would cause a large number of takeaway boys to lose their jobs, so he didn't consider implementing it.

Sometimes efficiency improvement is not necessarily a good thing, let's talk about it when China's labor force is insufficient.

But Zhong Cheng still encouraged Wang Xing to develop more types of Jingwei unmanned combat aircraft, even if they are not used now, they will be useful in the future.

After the second phase of the East China Sea project was fully launched, the work focus of Zhong Cheng's team members shifted to project implementation.

Design verification, process formulation, equipment selection, production line layout, personnel training, etc., team members spend more time on the site of the second phase of the project.

Another kind of busyness.

This is not a problem for the old members, but it is a test for the five newcomers.

They do not have the experience of working in the front line. It is new for them to leave the comfortable office environment, deal with the on-site personnel in the noisy and messy construction site, and solve the on-site problems by themselves.

But this is also a necessary process for a mature scientific researcher. If you stay in the laboratory all the time, you will not be able to cultivate excellent scientific researcher. Only by contacting with the front-line and designing things can you be grounded.

At this point, Zhong Cheng adopted a hands-off attitude and let them deal with it by themselves. When something went wrong, the teachers came to clean up the mess.

Try to give them room to grow, but if they can't adapt in the end, they will have to be eliminated.

His team doesn't need people who can only read dead books.
