Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 177 Air Bus System
After dinner, Zhong Cheng and Ye Wenxin called to call the team leaders of each project team to their home.

In fact, he is an old member of his team, he can be regarded as the backbone of the team.

Now, in order to reward Zhong Cheng's team for their contribution to the controllable nuclear fusion project, the company has allocated villas in Wolongling to Yang Xi, Gui Bin, Zhou Hu and even Lin Wei who joined later.

In addition, Zhao Wei, Li Mei, Liu Yuzhu, and Jiang Yan, who have already lived in Wolongling, and the backbone of the team live nearby, so it is very convenient to hold meetings.

After the people arrived, Ye Wenxin, Qin Yuwen and Zhou Hu were busy making tea for everyone, and Director Zhao also sat in the lobby to listen.

Zhong Cheng brought up the agenda for the afternoon meeting again.

After discussing for a while, everyone agreed that the technical difficulties are not the problem, but solving the social problems brought about by high-tech products is the most troublesome.

Liu Yuzhu said that Zhong Cheng might as well leave this issue to the country for consideration.

Zhao Wei retorted that the country still has to face such a problem. Those workers have worked in the factory all their lives. How can you live if you let them be laid off?

Zhong Cheng thought, Lao Zhao said this a few years ago, but it made sense at the time, and it should be different now.

But what's different, I didn't want to understand it for a while.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Zhong's father and Zhong's mother came back from a walk outside with little Zhong Xin.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Father Zhong casually said:
"Not every steel worker wants to make steel, and not every textile worker wants to spin yarn. Most of them want to live!"

Zhong's mother pulled Zhong's father and blamed: "Old Zhong, they are discussing important issues, what nonsense are you talking about, come upstairs with me to watch TV!"

Little Zhong Xin saw how lively the crowd was and was unwilling to leave, so Zhong's mother handed the little guy to Director Zhao, and the two went upstairs.

But Father Zhong's casual words awakened everyone.

These people are engaged in scientific research, in fact, a group of people living in ivory towers, they do not really understand the mentality of grassroots workers.

What Father Zhong said is very reasonable. More than 99% of the takeaway boys don’t like to deliver food in the wind and rain. If they are not good, they will be deducted for bad reviews.

Most of them will definitely give up the job immediately if life is guaranteed.

China's economy has developed so fast in recent years. Not only has its GDP ranked first in the world, but its per capita GDP has also reached the level of developed countries.

(PS: Please note that this book is science fiction, do not apply the level of reality!)
The country is fully capable of providing basic living security and free medical care for all people, and realizing a social security society ahead of schedule.

Under this premise, people's happiness index has been greatly improved, people's lives have no worries, and they no longer engage in jobs that they don't like just to survive.

Everyone can choose the job they like according to their own conditions and expertise.

People put into work with a relaxed and happy mood, full of enthusiasm and energy, which will also bring a good impetus to social development and bring a new situation to China.

Of course, there will inevitably be some people who are unwilling to work, eat and wait to die.

However, under the public opinion and under the supervision of corresponding measures established subsequently, this situation will gradually decrease.

After figuring this out, Zhong Cheng became enlightened.

He explained to everyone his long-awaited thoughts on the future development of civil aviation.

He has always wanted to integrate the passenger transport of air transport, rail transport and road transport to form a bus-like operating model.

When he was in college, the annual Spring Festival travel tossed him a lot.

At that time, his physical condition was extremely bad, and every train squeeze during the Spring Festival travel season was a nightmare experience.

He was thinking at the time, how great it would be if he could take a plane directly to the school and the price was cheaper than taking a hard seat on the train!

His idea was just a fantasy at the time, but now it's time to realize it.

He didn't mention it before because in his vision, the huge railway transportation system will be completely replaced, long-distance road passenger transportation will also be eliminated, and even the water transportation business.

Finally, a unified air passenger transport system operated by the state will be formed.

In the end, long-distance freight transport by rail, road, and sea is also completed by the air freight system.

Long railway tracks will be removed, railway stations and bus stations will be transformed into air stations, and only part of the road system will remain.

People's long-distance travel will realize point-to-point fast transportation, which will bring huge changes to human society.

This will involve the employment of tens of millions of people.

The future long-distance transportation will be unmanned automatic civil aviation aircraft with 100, 200, and 300 seats.

Corresponding to intra-provincial intercity traffic, domestic intercity traffic and international intercity traffic, intelligent robots provide services and security work.

These large and medium-sized unmanned aircraft can achieve vertical take-off and landing, without occupying a large amount of land, and can be widely distributed to all cities.

Unified coordination of flights, transfers and flight routes through the super Fuxi optical brain.

Perhaps the initial investment is large, but the operating cost is very low, and it can gradually become a public service enterprise in the future.

Therefore, the future long-distance passenger transportation envisioned by Zhong Cheng will be the state-run air bus system.

His idea stunned everyone.

"Boss, you really dare to think about dismantling the railway and turning the railway station into an airport!" Liu Yuzhu was so nervous that he was the first to react and exclaimed.

"To nationalize all the airlines and make civil aviation pilots and stewardesses unemployed, this is going to turn the world upside down!" Zhou Hu couldn't help breathing in.

"There are so many long-distance passenger transport companies, I'm afraid they will have to close their doors!" Gui Bin was not without emotion.

"There are so many related industries around railways, civil aviation, and highways. This kind of movement has a greater impact than controllable nuclear fusion!" Jiang Yan and Li Mei were discussing in a low voice.

Zhao Wei frowned, "How many planes have to be built, and the cargo must also be considered."

Lin Wei said with a smile: "I don't think Zhong Cheng will be in place immediately after thinking about it. If there is a process of ten years, gradually replace it and advance slowly, it should be no problem."

Director Zhao nodded, "I think Xiaocheng's idea is very good, the times are different, we have to dare to break those old bottles and cans, and if we don't break, we can't stand!"

Ye Wenxin and Qin Wenyu also raised their hands in agreement.

Yang Xi said excitedly: "This project is grand, it should be such a big project, Zhong Cheng, let me be responsible for the design of the aircraft of this project."

"Well, I will be responsible for trying to get the project approved. I think the country will consider it!"

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Zhong Cheng continued the discussion on the next two projects.

With the idea of ​​an air bus system, electric flying cars are no problem.

As a supplement to the internal transportation of the air bus system, everyone thinks that the electric flying car does not matter whether it is manned or unmanned.

As long as the flight route and flight speed restrictions are added to the vehicle system, coupled with the extremely spacious "road" in the sky, the possibility of accidents involving electric flying cars is almost zero.

In Zhong Cheng's plan, within the range of 20 meters to 5000 meters above the existing urban roads and expressways, more than 20 air expressways can be delineated at a level of 200 meters.

According to the driving distance, flight speed, and traffic congestion, the electric flying cars are divided.

At least for 20 years, it can meet the transportation needs of any mega city.

Traffic lights will become historical monuments!
