Chapter 837: It’s nothing, I just lost my mentality
While Xu Chuan was studying the technical problems of ultra-high-speed precision strike electromagnetic rail guns, on the other side, Beijing.
In a building on Chang'an Street, in a spacious conference room, an aerospace conference was being held.
Academician Wu Hongxin walked into the conference room wearing a gray plaid shirt and holding a thermos cup in his hand.
Just as he was about to find his place, his eyes fell on an acquaintance.
"Hey, Lao Wang, aren't you over there in Yangcheng? Why are you here?"
Along the aisle next to the seat, Academician Wu Hongxin walked towards an old friend sitting opposite.
Academician Wang Xiji, who was sitting in front of the conference table with his eyes closed, opened his eyes after hearing this familiar voice.
After seeing this old friend, he was stunned for a moment, then stared and asked: "I still want to ask you. I asked you to come out to play chess two days ago, and you said you were busy with a project."
"What the hell, why do you have time to come here?"
"Ahem, I was really busy the past few days. I just took on a confidential project, so I can't tell you." Academician Wu Hongxin coughed lightly, explained slightly awkwardly, and then changed the subject and said, "Speaking of which,
Why are you here today?"
Academician Wang Xiji glanced sideways and said, "Just like you, I have taken on a confidential project and I can't tell you about it."
Hearing this, Academician Wu Hongxin couldn't help but move the corners of his mouth. He wanted to refute but then remembered that he had indeed been in the wrong some time ago.
Shaking his head, he glanced around the conference room. Looking at the crowded conference room, he said with emotion: "There are a lot of acquaintances in today's meeting."
Not only experts within Aerospace Science and Technology, but also academicians and experts from Aerospace Science and Industry, and he even saw some business leaders who cooperated with the two major groups.
In addition, there are some people he is not familiar with. They don't look like they are from the two major aerospace groups, nor do they look like they are from the two major compounds. Judging from their temperament, they might be from the military industry.
expert.
It's a bit interesting. I don't know what the content of today's meeting is, the lineup is so huge.
Academician Wang Xiji nodded and asked with some curiosity: "Have you received advance notice of the meeting content?"
Wu Hongxin shook his head and said: "We are at the same level and we are in the same group. If you haven't received it, how can I possibly have it?"
Hearing this, Wang Xiji couldn't help but said: "What do you want to do by gathering so many people today?"
"I don't know. Just wait and see. It will be discussed at the meeting. Anyway, it must be a big deal."
"What do you need to say?" Wang Xiji glanced sideways at her old friend, shook her head and ignored him arrogantly.
"Hey, let me tell you, what's the matter with you? Why are you so angry today? Did your guy criticize you before you came here?"
"Oh, will I be criticized?"
"That's not certain. Who doesn't know that you have tracheitis, old man?"
"Who are you talking about, old man?"
The two academicians were quarreling, while the participants next to them were suppressing laughter and eating melon.
Time passed little by little, and at 9:30, the staff in the conference room stepped forward and closed the door of the conference room, and the meeting finally started.
The person presiding over the meeting was Director Wu Yuankang of the Space Administration.
Of course, when the leader of the space agency stepped onto the stage, the conference room quickly became silent.
After trying the microphone, Wu Yuankang said formally: "First of all, thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the meeting here."
"Today we have gathered so many experts and scholars because there is a major project that requires your opinions. Because the matter is so important, we did not inform you in advance before inviting you to come. I hope you can understand."
Looking around the crowd, he continued: "Today's meeting is highly confidential. I hope that you will strictly keep the content of the meeting strictly confidential after leaving this meeting room."
"At the same time, I also hope that everyone will be generous with their opinions at the next meeting. If you have any good or bad ideas and opinions, you must put them forward at the meeting."
"Now, we will officially start the discussion meeting."
As he said that, on the large screen directly in front of the conference room, the ultra-clear projection equipment projected the PPT materials that had been prepared.
When I saw the PPT picture displayed and the title above the picture, the originally quiet conference room suddenly became commotion.
Sitting in the front row, Wang Xiji squinted and stared at the pictures on the stage for a while, then took out his glasses from his pocket, wiped them with his clothes and quickly put them on.
"Lunar Orbital Mass Projector Lunar Orbital Space Station"
After confirming that he had seen correctly, he looked away, his eyes still filled with incredible shock.
He thought that today's meeting might be about various projects, but he never considered today's meeting.
Not just him, most of the people in the conference room did not expect that such a thing would be brought out in today's meeting held by the space agency.
Sitting next to Academician Wang Xiji, Wu Hongxin opened his mouth and did not close it for a while.
"Lunar Orbital Mass Projector? What is this for?"
Unable to help but swallow, Academician Wu Hongxin exchanged glances with his old friend beside him, and everyone could see the shock in his eyes.
"I don't know, let's take a look." Academician Wang Xiji replied casually with deep interest in his eyes.
The Lunar Orbital Mass Projector is interesting. Who proposed this project?
Is this going to vigorously develop the moon?
As if his guess was printed on it, Wu Yuankang, who was standing on the stage, did not pause for long, and then said:
"Based on the development and implementation of the Yuehuatai Outpost Scientific Research Station and the lunar biosphere project, our development of lunar resources is just around the corner."
"Based on the proposal of the Lunar Surface Construction Committee, the country will plan to select a crater formed by a large meteorite impact crater on the lunar surface to build a circular acceleration orbit..."
"...The plan will be carried out simultaneously with the second phase of the Yuehuatai Outpost Scientific Research Station and the lunar biosphere project. It will be led by the National Academy of Sciences and led by the Space Administration. The first phase of the project will cost 100 billion RMB and is expected to mobilize five
More than ten domestic universities, research institutions and related business units participated."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "...After the project is completed, the lunar orbital acceleration device can accelerate 50 tons of equipment or minerals to
At least 2.5 kilometers/second."
"At the same time, the lunar orbital space station project led by the Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation and the Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation will form a cooperative system with the lunar orbital mass projector. On the basis of retaining the original functions, it will increase reception, transshipment, and load-bearing capacity.
The capabilities of lunar resources..."
"..."
Hearing this, the discussion below the conference room became commotion again.
Especially the experts and scholars in charge of the lunar orbiting space station project couldn't help but frown.
If the boss on the stage meant what he said correctly and they heard it correctly, their lunar orbital space station project will become a vassal of the lunar orbital mass projector project and become a transfer station for receiving, transferring, and carrying lunar resources.
?
When this concept was proposed, it was indeed difficult for them to accept it.
An independent and complete project becomes a vassal of other projects.
As a result, the construction plan of the entire project and the structure of the lunar space station will be significantly modified, adjusted or even redesigned.
This not only means that their original investment will be overturned, but it also means that the fate of their project will no longer be in their hands.
On the stage, as soon as Director Wu Yuankang finished his speech, Academician Fan Benyao, who is responsible for the lunar orbit space station project on the aerospace science and technology side, raised his hand and raised this question.
On the stage, Wu Yuankang explained: "The lunar orbiting space station project is still independent, and it is the responsibility of Aerospace Science and Technology and Aerospace Science and Industry."
"But on this basis, the Lunar Orbital Space Station will add a project team responsible for docking with the Lunar Orbit Construction Committee and coordinating with the Lunar Orbital Mass Projector project to form a mutually coordinated material delivery and transfer system."
"You can understand that on the original basis, the lunar orbiting space station will have some new functions."
Academician Fan Benyao frowned and asked quickly: "What about the funds?"
"For the new material delivery, transfer, and load-bearing functions of the lunar orbiting space station, the original space station design must be expanded, and there will inevitably be a shortage of funds in the original plan."
Wu Yuankang: "The new functions of the Lunar Orbital Space Station will be tendered by the Lunar Orbital Mass Projector project team. Specific funding issues need to be communicated with the Lunar Orbital Construction Committee."
"Do you have any other questions?"
"No, thank you." Academician Fan Benyao nodded and sat down again.
If that's the case, he really doesn't have any objections.
This method of cooperation is equivalent to adding new functions to their lunar orbit space station project while increasing part of the funding.
It is most suitable for both the lunar space station and the lunar orbital mass projector.
It's just that these functions and funds need to be communicated and negotiated with the Lunar Orbital Mass Projector. They don't know how much they can get from the 100 billion project.
The meeting continued. In the audience, Academician Wu Hongxin squinted his eyes, stared at the PPT picture on the stage, and suddenly said: "Who do you think proposed this project?"
Sitting next to him, his old friend Academician Wang Xiji thought for a moment and said, "Probably that person from Jinling."
"This kind of 100-billion-dollar project can be launched in such a short period of time, and there has been no news about it before. Apart from him, I am afraid that no one else in the country has this ability."
Although experts have proposed the lunar orbital mass projector a long time ago, NASA even conducted relevant feasibility studies as early as the last century.
But whether it is in the United States or China, there is not much planning for this project at all.
Especially in China, no one has ever mentioned it before, and no relevant experts or academicians have given it a platform.
As for being able to mount a horse in such a short period of time, except for that person, he could not think of anyone else who had this ability.
"Probably so."
On the side, Academician Wu Hongxin responded. After being silent for a while, he suddenly felt emotional and couldn't help but say: "Do you still remember the 'Hongyan Space Foundation Project' on our previous platform?"
Wang Xiji: "Remember, what happened? Isn't this project still under discussion?"
Wu Hongxin said with emotion: "If I remember correctly, the Hongyan Tiandi Integration Project has been proposed to the higher authorities for at least four or five years, right? It has not been approved yet."
Wang Xiji: "Maybe it will be passed this year? Isn't it normal for a 100 billion-level project to be discussed for four to five years?"
Wu Hongxin sighed and said, "My mentality is just a little unbalanced."
Wang Xiji: “???”
Wu Hongxin ignored him, looked at the podium with a faint look, and said as if talking to himself:
"The Hongyan Sky-Earth Integration Project is a project promoted by the two major groups of Science and Technology and Science and Industry. After completion, it will have the capabilities of global space-time continuous communication, high-reliability and secure communication, regional large-capacity communication, and high-mobility full-range information transmission."
"Such a highly valuable project has an investment of more than 100 billion, and more than double-digit academicians support it. However, it has been discussed for five or six years, but has not been decided yet."
"It's so irritating to see people compare to each other."
Hearing this, Academician Wang Xiji smiled dumbly and said comfortingly: "There is nothing to compare. The projects he proposed are always discussed separately above."
After a pause, he continued: "Besides, the development of the moon is our outpost into space. Under the current conditions, every investment in it will accumulate for us the subsequent development of Mars, Mercury and other extraterrestrial planets.
experience of."
“It’s totally worth investing in this.”
Wu Hongxin looked over quietly and said, "You mean, the Hongyan Tiandi Integration Project is not worth it anymore?"
Wang Xiji glanced at him and said angrily: "The situations are different and comparison is completely meaningless. Aren't you looking for trouble for yourself?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shaking his head, he ignored this old friend.
This old guy is just full and wants to compare himself with that guy from Jinling.
But he didn't even look at what kind of pervert it was.
Not to mention domestically, even in the entire world, looking at the history of the development of human civilization, there are only a handful of things that can compare with it.
From the field of basic science to the field of applied science; from the Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize, academicians of the two academies, to nuclear fission radiation technology, nuclear fusion technology, new space shuttle...
That person's achievements may not even be described as earth-shattering.
It is no exaggeration to say that he alone is carrying the entire civilization forward.
Without him, China would probably still be looking for ways to compete for traditional chemical fuel resources such as oil and coal.
Not to mention that it is now possible to land a man on the moon, and even build a scientific research base on the moon to develop lunar resources.
Let alone a project like the Lunar Orbital Mass Projector, which they are fully capable of realizing at this stage, I am afraid that the person who said that they want to transform the moon and turn it into a spaceship and fly away is something outrageous. Maybe all the above will do it.
Carefully consider the feasibility.
After all, based on the current situation, everything that person proposed has been accomplished.
He said that he wanted to solve the problem of nuclear waste, and he successfully turned the nuclear waste that everyone was afraid of into a treasure capable of generating electricity.
He said that he wanted to solve the problem of controllable nuclear fusion and successfully brought endless energy to the world.
If other scholars are trying to cross the river by feeling their way through scientific research, then he is just sitting on a rocket and taking off on the spot.
The even scarier thing is that he is still so young.
If I remember correctly, he seems to be less than thirty years old.
Even though he was not yet in his third year, he was already at the pinnacle of the history of civilization.
It is indeed enviable and admirable.
Of course, Wang Xiji is also happy from the bottom of his heart. He is happy that the motherland can produce such a great talent of the century. He is happy that someone can shoulder the burden of rejuvenating Chinese civilization. He is even more happy that they are once again on top of the world and leading the development of the world.
