Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 193 Qingluan 160 and Qingluan 520
When Zhong Cheng returned home, Ye Wenxin and her mother were still in the R&D center of the nuclear fusion generator company.

Qin Wenyu didn't leave work either, and there were only Zhong's father, Zhong's mother and Xiao Zhongxin at home.

After their parents moved in, they asked Aunt Zhang, who was in charge of cooking for them, not to come.

Although Zhong Cheng was not required to pay the fee, the parents still felt that this was not good, and they provided three meals for the family themselves.

Zhong's mother is cooking in the kitchen, and Zhong's father is playing with little Zhong Xin in the hall.

Seeing him back, Father Zhong asked him to sit down and talk.

"Xiaocheng, there is no one else now, I want to ask you something!"

"Dad, just speak up if you have something to say, and tell others behind your back?" Zhong Cheng disagreed.

Father Zhong asked directly when he heard the words, "When do you and Wenxin plan to have a child?"

"This!"

Zhong Cheng said helplessly: "I don't care, but Wenxin is afraid of delaying her research work, and said that she will regenerate a few years later!"

Father Zhong said angrily: "Look at you and your group of people, none of them want to have children, and now their parents have come to us to complain."

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhong Cheng was very surprised, "Why didn't I see them talk to me about this?"

"You are a big shot now, stomping your feet, Red Star Company will tremble three times, who dares to talk to you?"

"Hey? Dad, when did you learn to speak in a strange way?"

Father Zhong said angrily, "It's not because you are so angry!"

"Ha ha!"

Zhong Cheng picked up the little Zhong Xin who was crawling on the carpet, and kissed his little face.

"Dad, don't worry, I'll take care of it when the projects I'm working on are over!"

"Zhong Cheng, what are you going to do?"

Ye Wenxin's voice came from the door, she and Director Zhao came home from get off work.

The father and son stopped the conversation quickly, and Zhong Cheng got up to greet him.

"Oh, it's nothing, I just want to make a small toy for Zhong Xin!"

……

When going to work the next day, Zhong Cheng called Zhou Hu.

Zhao Wei and Liu Yuzhu have been married for almost two years, and they are not too young, and they haven't had children yet.

If his father hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have realized the problem.

If Yang Xi, Lin Wei, and Gui Bin get married in the future, it will be like this, then there will be big troubles.

They also need successors!
"Huzi, I have an important task for you!"

Zhou Hu patted his chest, "Boss, just say it!"

"Go and find out about Lao Zhao and Zhuzi's family, why don't they have children?"

"what!"

Zhou Hu sighed, "Boss, you really think of me as the street committee aunt!"

"You don't deserve it, why don't you let me do it?" Zhong Cheng also sighed, "This leader is too difficult to be a leader. He cares about getting married and having children!"

Seeing this, Zhou Hu had no choice but to say, "Can't I go?"

11 month 18 day.

Red Star Company held the opening ceremony of the third phase of the project every day.

It was originally not planned to make a big deal, but now every move of Red Star Company has attracted media attention.

At the request of the company's public relations department, Red Star Company still held a grand groundbreaking ceremony.

At the ceremony, Mr. Wan announced that Red Star Company was preparing to produce the daily speed car.

Although no specific technical performance was announced, it still caused a great shock at home and abroad.

A private car flying in the sky is an epoch-making high-tech product!

Especially for those people in big cities who suffer from traffic jams, it is a blessing from heaven.

Of course, some doubts have been raised, which is inevitable.

For example, will it bring safety hazards, can traffic regulations keep up, can ordinary people afford it, will it increase social inequality, and so on.

It can be said that Speed ​​​​by the day has become a household name before it even has a shadow.

Many people even sent out the design drawings of the daily speed car, which provided Minister Wan with countless new ideas for exterior design for free.

11 month 30 day.

Yang Xi's team completed the design of the civil aviation aircraft.

However, they changed the originally expected design plan and changed the three models planned by Zhong Cheng to two.

Because in the actual design, Yang Xi found that the division of provincial routes, domestic routes and international routes was not accurate.

For example, the intra-provincial route in Xijiang is much longer than the international route from the northeastern city to Koryo.

For mass production in the future, they decided to divide the models into two categories: medium-sized civil aviation aircraft with a range of less than 2000 kilometers and large civil aviation aircraft with a range of more than 2000 kilometers.

The passenger capacity of medium-sized civil aviation aircraft is 160, and that of large civil aviation aircraft is 520.

Zhong Cheng agrees with their idea that one less model will reduce the manufacturing cost by at least 10%.

And he also specially named these two new civil aviation aircraft, Qingluan 160 and Qingluan 520 respectively.

Qingluan, also known as Cangluan, is a divine bird that often accompanies the Queen Mother of the West in ancient Chinese mythology, and is also the messenger of the Queen Mother of the West.

Qingluan is a legendary bird similar to the phoenix, and it is an auspicious sign of peace and joy!

Zhong Cheng thought it was appropriate to name civil aviation aircraft.

Because it is a civil aviation aircraft, it does not need to consider the stealth function and air mobility, and the speed does not need to be too fast.

Considering the distance and cost, the maximum speed of Qingluan 160 is 0.8 times the speed of sound, and the maximum speed of Qingluan 520 is 2 times the speed of sound.

In the future, Qingluan 160 will be the most, and the speed will not be too fast within 2000 kilometers, and the cost will drop significantly.

Therefore, in Yang Xi's design plan, the appearance of the Qingluan civil aviation aircraft is similar to that of the U.S. space shuttle.

Compared with the existing Boeing and Airbus aircraft, the Qingluan civil aviation aircraft equipped with large-scale Zhurong electric pushers and Kuafu power batteries has a cost advantage. Under the same passenger capacity, the cost is less than the latter. one third.

On the other hand, the advantages are crushing. Qingluan 160 can achieve vertical take-off and landing, and Qingluan 520 can take off with a runway less than 200 meters away. Most of the current airport runways are more than 3000 meters.

Qingluan 160 can use the long-distance bus station in the future, and the airport of Qingluan 520 can also use the existing railway station for renovation.

In this way, civil aviation aircraft can be popularized in every city, and there may even be dozens of such "small airports" in large cities.

The airport, which now occupies a huge area and is far away from the outskirts of the city, will only have the fate of being demolished in the future.

Due to the extremely low operating costs (only electricity), the price of air tickets will drop to a much lower level than train tickets.

Coupled with the safety of electric aircraft, the security check process for flying can also be greatly simplified.

At that time, people's long-distance transportation will become extremely convenient and low-cost. Convenient travel will bring great changes to people's travel, life, employment and other aspects.

It is even possible to go to work in a big city during the day and return to live in a small city at night.

At that time, the high housing prices in the big cities were unbearable!
