Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 195 Wonderful Ideas About Cargo Airplanes

Zhong Cheng then asked Deng Lin about his views on the nano-mirror film.

Deng Lin sneered and said, "It's some idiot's bad idea to reflect the sunlight. It would be great to directly absorb the sunlight and convert it into electrical energy. It kills two birds with one stone!"

Zhong Cheng's eyes lit up. This is a way of thinking. Although there is no shortage of electricity now, maintaining a huge "pergola" requires a lot of electricity.

If the "pergola" can solve the power problem by itself, it will save a lot of trouble.

He ignored the rudeness in Deng Lin's words, he finally understood why this guy got into such a bad situation.

Deng Lin was very interested in using nanomaterials to make ultra-light and ultra-thin solar panels, and he talked about his ideas endlessly.

It wasn't until Li Mei interrupted his topic that he hooked his head again, realizing that he was still waiting for Zhong Cheng's "judgment" on his future life.

At this moment, Zhong Cheng was secretly happy, and this time he found the right person.

But he didn't show his feelings. For such an arrogant guy, if he pays attention all of a sudden, he will get carried away again.

He said calmly: "Nanotechnology is indeed very useful for Red Star Company, but as for whether it is useful for you, you have to prove it to me yourself!"

Deng Lin's face darkened, he had heard too many such clichés, and thought he was going to be sent to sit on the bench again.

Zhong Cheng raised his voice, "Deng Lin, now the company has an important project in the Qaidam Basin, which requires specialized talents in the research and development of nanomaterials."

"Now Liu Yuzhu is in charge over there. Would you like to work under Liu Yuzhu to be responsible for the research and development of nanomaterials?"

Hearing this, Deng Lin struggled. He knew exactly where the Qaidam Basin was, a place where birds don't shit!

He also knew Liu Yuzhu, who used to be someone he dismissed, but now let him be Liu Yuzhu's subordinate, how embarrassing it is!

Seeing this, Li Mei became anxious again, but was stopped by Zhong Cheng's stern eyes when she was about to speak.

Zhong Cheng has become more and more dignified in the past two years, and he is usually fine. Once he gets serious, Li Mei will not dare to make a mistake.

Not keeping the two of them waiting for long, after a while, Deng Lin gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"Director Zhong, I am willing to go to Qaidam to assist Liu Yuzhu in his work!"

Deng Lin thought it over clearly, this might be his last chance to stand up in his life, if he missed the chance to join Zhong Cheng's team, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Zhong Cheng nodded, Deng Lin's attitude is good, this guy can still be saved!
In fact, Deng Lin does not need to go to Qaidam to develop nanomaterials. This is just a test for Zhong Cheng.

If it passes, Zhong Chengcheng will reuse him, otherwise he should go back to the capital to retire!

"Okay, you guys wait here, I'll go say hello to Director Qian!"

Although Director Qian and Director Luo have completely handed over the personnel rights of Zhong Cheng's team to him, Deng Lin is a "deserter" of the R&D Institute, so it is best to talk to Director Qian.

Zhong Cheng found him in Director Qian's office. Director Qian was playing Go with Deputy Director Luo, very leisurely!

Deputy director Luo is the original director Luo, who was promoted the year before last, and the position of director of the R&D center is now held by Assistant Huang.

He talked about Deng Lin's affairs. Deputy director Luo still had an impression of Deng Lin, saying that this guy's brain is still very easy to use, but his emotional intelligence is too low.

If you don't run into a wall in society, you can't change it.

Director Qian explained the matter of Deng Lin leaving and coming back, saying that he had left a way out for him, which was the right thing to do.

No, it turned around and turned back again.

Seeing that the two leaders had no objection to Deng Lin's return, Zhong Chengcheng called Director Huang to go through Deng Lin's formalities and arrange for him to work in Qaidam as soon as possible.

The two leaders' arrangements for Zhong Cheng were very strange. Zhong Cheng explained his thoughts, and of course he didn't say what he wanted to keep Deng Lin away from Li Mei temporarily.

The two leaders admired Zhong Cheng's "methods". Zhong Cheng's ability to control talents has indeed been able to become a teacher.

After Zhong Cheng came out, he called Liu Yuzhu again, briefly explained Deng Lin's situation, and asked Liu Yuzhu to manage Deng Lin well.

Liu Yuzhu casually reported the progress of the first phase of the Xihai project. It was nothing more than Mr. Shao's hard work, Northwest Chemical Co., Ltd.'s cooperation, and the progress was smooth.

All of this was expected by Zhong Cheng. Hongxing Heavy Industry has already experienced so many large-scale construction projects in recent years.

The third phase of the daily project has also been progressing rapidly recently.

But Zhong Cheng was a little worried about whether the Qingluan civil aviation aircraft project would be implemented immediately. Would there be a shortage of manpower if the three major projects were implemented at the same time?
After all, the number of experienced project implementation teams is limited.

……

12 month 12 day.

Yancey's team quickly completed a draft design for the large cargo aircraft.

This enthusiasm is in stark contrast to the design of passenger aircraft.

But their design plan surprised Zhong Cheng.

What they designed is a super giant in the air with a maximum take-off weight of 1600 tons.

And now the largest transport aircraft in the world has a maximum take-off weight of only 640 tons. It is the An-225 transport aircraft of the former Soviet Union. At present, there is only one in the world.

If you compare the maximum load data, the gap is even more obvious.

Yang Xi’s cargo plane weighs only 100 tons and has a maximum load of 1500 tons.

The An-225 has a self-weight of more than 300 tons, and its maximum load capacity is less than 300 tons.

Zhong Cheng was very curious about this, logically the difference shouldn't be so big.

Yang Xi asked Lorna to explain, saying that it was Lorna's "weird" idea.

Rona proudly said that their cargo planes do not have bulky cargo holds at all, and are used in combination with special containers with their own power systems.

The cargo plane itself does not have a large load-carrying capacity, but hundreds of small Zhurong electric pushers are installed at the bottom of the container container. It only needs the cargo plane to grab the container and use the strong driving force to deliver the container to the designated location.

With such a design, even the airport is not needed, only the container loading and unloading place is needed, and door-to-door express service between enterprises can be realized.

The cargo plane can grab 15 100-ton container containers at a time, so the maximum take-off weight has reached 1500 tons.

Of course, several containers can be transported at one time, which has little impact on the transportation cost and is very flexible.

Because the plane and the container are integrated, and the cost of the container is not low, so in their plan, the air cargo system must also be managed in a unified manner.

It is best to hand it over to the future state-run air transport management company, and let them manage passenger and cargo transportation together.

Zhong Cheng was amazed by Luo Na's introduction. This method of freight transportation has never been seen in science fiction works, but it seems to be feasible.

It is also the realization of controllable nuclear fusion power generation. If it was before, this power consumption would make them feel overwhelmed.
