Have you got the latest aerodynamic structure design drawing?

In the office of Nantianmen Base, Lin Yongming asked Lei Gang in front of him.

We got it. Just as we expected, it uses a floating connection design.

This design plan cannot be said to be too surprising, but it is actually the most feasible plan after the construction period is extremely compressed.

Because we can mobilize a lot of resources, but the technological breakthroughs we can achieve in the short term are limited.

Instead of blowing wind tunnels and modifying the design again and again, it is better to be simple and rude, like Maozi, and solve the problem in a straightforward way.

I have sent the design requirements to the aerodynamic module joint research group. They will complete the manufacturing of the first complete version of the aerodynamic model within three days, and then it can be blown into the wind tunnel immediately.

Theoretically speaking, there won't be any big problems with Xinghuo's plan. The design will be finalized and moved into the manufacturing stage soon.

clear.

Lin Yongming nodded slightly, and then continued to ask:

What about the other modules? How is the progress so far?

The speed is very fast. We have already issued a death order. This is a war, a life-and-death battle. Basically all the resources that can be mobilized have been mobilized. The industrial base established in the past few years is really being deployed now. It comes in handy.”

The Office of Civil Development has also given us the greatest support. The supply chain has been fully opened, and the channels have guaranteed us the highest standards.

It can be said that we have a green light in front of us. If we cannot complete the task on time under such circumstances, we will really be sorry for the people and the country.

Don't talk nonsense.

Hearing Lei Gang's words, Lin Yongming waved his hand gently.

After all, he is in a high position, and the more extreme the situation, the more calm he can stay.

Issue death orders and military orders, regardless of the cost?

It sounds beautiful, but in actual implementation, it will definitely cause problems.

Not to mention that various fixed processes may be subconsciously omitted due to overly strict construction deadlines. Even if there is no such subjective risk, if the personnel involved in the project are overtired and become negligent and cause major loopholes, the loss will be How to bear it and how to make amends?

This kind of thing has not happened in history, so at this time, someone must step up and put on the brakes.

So, he opened his mouth and said:

No matter how urgent the matter is, there must be a basic rule.

The situation in the United States has an impact on us, but it is certainly not a direct impact. At worst, we can still find alternatives.

It would be better to go slower than take any risks.

Now, tell me, what are the average working hours of the project team?

Lei Gang hesitated for a few seconds and then replied:

About 12 hours.

Engineers and technicians work longer hours, while ordinary workers work relatively shorter hours, but they all reach 10 hours.

Too long.

Lin Yongming shook his head, thought for a moment and asked:

“Is the budget still sufficient?”

Plenty - want to add more people?

Give money and add people! Expand recruitment standards and bring in old men!

In this matter, they and we have the same interests. It is impossible for us to do our best and they will just sit back and enjoy the results.

Let them put aside the fourth-generation aircraft project. They have been working on it for so many years. What have they come up with?

It's a waste of time for those engineers to be there, let us use them first!

Understood, I'll communicate.

Lei Gang answered immediately, and then he left Lin Yongming's office and turned towards the office of the Russian representative who was working in the building.

A few hours later, in the Kremlin.

Marokov sat opposite the president and repeated the latest demands from China word for word.

. Within two weeks, at least 200 more professional technicians, engineers and aviation experts will be deployed to the Nantianmen project, and the number will be doubled within a month.

The personnel present will be integrated into the management sequence of China, accept the command of the Nantianmen project team, and will be paid and provided with corresponding guarantees by China.

At the same time, they hope that we can share some of the test data we currently have, including but not limited to data from previous Tu-95 nuclear-powered engines and other wind tunnel test data.

In general, this time we are directly planning to merge with them in the fields of technology and R\u0026D.

After finishing speaking, Marokov looked at the president quietly. The latter's eyes were still sharp and aggressive, but at this moment, anyone could see that there was still a bit of confusion in his eyes.

Is it necessary to do this?

he asked.

From a national perspective, I certainly think it is unnecessary. After all, this is the fact, the fact.

Marokov did not say that word after all, but changed the subject and continued:

But from a national perspective, I think they are also crossing the line, but you have to admit that in the current situation, our two countries do need some cooperation that goes beyond the conventional.

The United States may no longer have the ability to invade and occupy the whole world, but they must still have the ability to mess up the entire world.

In this case, we really need a stronger force to stop and restrain them, and they are the best choice.

So, we must create opportunities for them to build Nantianmen.

This piece of equipment will become the most iconic piece of equipment in human history - it will be the starting point of a new world order.

Hearing his words, the president nodded slowly.

But then he asked a question that was difficult for Marokov to answer.

The new world order. What role will we play in that order?

Marokov lowered his head.

After a long time, he replied:

Whatever the role is, it's definitely not the role we expect now.

But I think we should recognize the reality.

“We say the word revival too much, but we say very little about the definition of revival.”

Striving for hegemony and dominance have long been out of the mainstream of this world. Isn't it a renaissance in a sense to allow our people to embrace a better life?

At least I think so.

The president let out a long sigh. At this moment, he seemed to have finally let go of the obsession that had been forced on him.

Do as they say.

Give people to them, and if you need resource support, we can fully cooperate.

That's it, we're on board.

If you can't be a captain, then you might as well choose a comfortable room and lie down.

The world is divided into two extremes.

One extreme has fallen into irreversible chaos and is brewing a war that can end the chaos, trying to use the most extreme way to regain order.

At the other extreme, it has begun to develop towards the tightest order. The state machine is operating at the highest efficiency ever, and all allies are closely united. Even unrelated spectators are involved in this order. got a place.

The rapid progress of the Nantianmen project is only one aspect of it, and the other aspect is the Guanghan Palace project that has reached its highest point almost quietly.

Yangquan, in the small living room of Zhang Xuemin's home, the family sat together for the rare occasion.

His wife's face was full of pride but sadness, and she asked in a low voice:

Are we really going to leave?

Zhang Xuemin nodded and replied:

This is the last vacation. After we go back this time, we will conduct a week of adaptive training before going to heaven.

Upon hearing his answer, his wife let out a long sigh.

In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she really doesn't want Zhang Xuemin to go to the moon.

Why do you have to go?

Being able to participate in this project, pass the national selection, and even withstand training for so long proves that everything he has done before is meaningful. This is enough, isn't it?

This kind of life experience is enough to wash away all the misunderstandings he has suffered before, and it is enough to stop the mouths of those who once looked down on him, isn't it?

In this case, why don't you choose to quit? Why do you have to take huge risks and really go to the moon?

It's space over there.

In the thousands of years of human history, only a few people have landed on the moon, and that was already decades ago.

Narrow escape is not enough to describe the danger of this journey, right?

It's unimaginable to stay there for several months, or even a year.

Even if her husband has repeatedly promised himself that he will definitely come back and that the country will use the most advanced technology to ensure their safety, that is not on earth after all.

For a moment, she didn't even know what to say, so she could only look at her children aside.

At this time, the children, who were originally looking forward to the moon landing, began to shrink back.

Dad, who are you going with?

the youngest daughter asked.

I can't tell you this, it's confidential.

But you'll know when we're sure to set off in a few days.

Is it safe?

The younger daughter once again asked a question that had been asked countless times.

It's safe, don't worry.

Several people fell silent again. His son, who was already in college, remained silent. However, when Zhang Xuemin looked at him, he suddenly laughed.

I didn't expect that I could really compete with such a good father - I won the battle with my father.

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Xuemin couldn't help but laugh.

Stop talking nonsense with me.

It will take at least half a year for me to go there. If it's longer, it may even take 9 months to a year.

When I'm not at home, you take good care of your mother and your sister and shoulder the responsibility of being an older brother, do you understand?

I know, don't worry.

The son nodded firmly. In fact, he had not really grown up yet, but he knew that after his father left, he would truly become an adult.

But after a few seconds of pause, he spoke again:

But don't act like you're a dying orphan. I don't believe it. It's been decades since Americans could go there, but we still can't go there?

That's what happened!

Zhang Xuemin smiled happily and relaxed on the sofa.

He saw that his wife still wanted to talk, so he continued to explain:

You really don't have to worry too much. When we go up this time, the symbolic significance is greater than the actual significance.

I didn't need to take on too many responsibilities. I basically just helped other researchers and did some basic work, such as building a base and moving things.

Even if you ask me now whether there is any danger, I can't tell you - those scientists have already considered these things.

All right.

The wife finally said no more. She stood up and walked to the kitchen and said to Zhang Xuemin:

I will cook some dishes for you tonight. There is nothing left at home. You two can go out and buy some more food.

Then I really want to buy it - by the way, I took a look at what else is missing at home and made up for it all at once.

Zhang Xuemin pulled his little daughter to get up, and his son opened the door immediately.

It's time to replace the water heater and the air conditioner in the room, but you can buy it online and I'll fix it then.

By the way, my sister is going to high school soon. She needs to get a new computer. We might as well buy it together today.

But you can't go to the computer store to buy it, buy it online.

While he was chattering, he took the car keys and drove out, as if he was the head of the family.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Xuemin finally felt relieved.

In fact, he was really prepared not to come back.

He didn't tell anyone about this, and he didn't even write a suicide note, but he wasn't worried at all, that was impossible.

Just like a soldier who is about to go to the battlefield, even if he does not have to go to the front line, he will still worry about being hit by flying stray bullets.

The car drove all the way to the street, and according to their son's plan, they bought many things that needed to be replaced and updated.

Finally, while passing an outdoor goods store, Zhang Xuemin asked his son to stop the car.

The three of them walked into the store together and chose an astronomical telescope.

The boss was a little curious about their move, because the three of them really didn't know anything about this thing. When asked what type they needed, they would only answer the one with the highest magnification.

What are you doing? Looking for stars?

Before Zhang Xuemin had time to answer, her daughter said first:

No, just looking at the moon.

A few days later, Zhang Xuemin ended his short vacation and returned to the Chang'e-6 launch base.

Here, he will undergo final adaptive training, and then follow other teammates on the journey to the moon.

This will be the second time humans on earth have landed on the moon.

It is also the first time for ordinary people on earth to go into space.
