Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1914 Beidou System
"President Xu, even if some news cannot be disclosed, you still have to make me prepare, right?" Duan Yun smiled all over his face, and then asked: "At least it will give me time to adjust the research and development team. In addition, related aspects Talented people also need to recruit troops in advance..."

Duan Yun understands that Xu Shaoqiang will not let go of empty guns. Since he said so, it must be true. After all, he can get in touch with people and things at a higher level. If there is no major accident, it should be that the country has a new large-scale The project requires the participation of domestic enterprises.

Although Tianyin Group has now adjusted its strategy and regards export as the focus of its future development this year, Duan Yun is still very interested in doing business with the government, because compared to doing ordinary business, it is purely for making money. Participating in national projects can bring both fame and fortune.

Moreover, it has fallen into a bottleneck in the development of an enterprise, whether it is assets or other strengths, it has reached the point where the country cannot ignore it, but this also brings a very large risk to the enterprise. If an enterprise develops to a higher level, it has reached the stage where it has to be tied to national interests.

Compared with Western companies, Chinese companies must have a sense of social responsibility. As far as the current national development strategies and policies are concerned, they cannot be compared with the fully open market economy in the future. Only by being a state-owned enterprise Enterprises that have the same sense of social responsibility and can contribute to the domestic economy and people's livelihood can go longer and further.

Therefore, participating in such a national-level research and development project will not be criticized by public opinion for how much money it makes, and it can even bring a lot of honor. Compared with Duan Yun's blind donation and charity, the return is more generous.

"Let's put it this way, do you know anything about satellite positioning systems?" Xu Shaoqiang glanced at each other, and then said: "In the Gulf War in the past two years, we have also seen the strength of the US military, especially their satellite positioning precision strike system , almost changed the way of the entire war, so our country also has its own satellite positioning system..."

"You mean the Beidou system?" Duan Yun blurted out immediately upon hearing this.

When Duan Yun mentioned the domestic satellite positioning system, the first thing Duan Yun thought of was the Beidou system.

"What Beidou system?" Xu Shaoqiang was taken aback for a moment.

"Ah, I'm just talking casually." Duan Yun remembered that the country has not yet started to develop the Beidou system, so he asked again: "When will this system start to be developed?"

At this time, Duan Yun was very excited. He never imagined that one day he and his company would be able to participate in the research and development of the domestic satellite positioning system.

Since the mid-70s, the GPS global positioning system affiliated to the US Air Force has provided low-cost, high-precision three-dimensional position and navigation services for users all over the world.

All aircraft, ships, missiles and other weapons in active service in the United States today rely on GPS navigation, and the importance of precision guidance is beyond doubt.

During the first Gulf War in 1991, there was even a high-precision attack scene in which missiles drilled down the vents of the news building.

For the battlefield command system, GPS can also achieve extremely accurate time synchronization.In terms of civilian use in later generations, it is as large as infrastructure construction, as small as sharing location with mobile phones, and even ordering takeaway depends on GPS positioning.

However, GPS is a system of the U.S. Air Force after all. Excessive reliance on GPS in key areas of the country will inevitably bury hidden dangers. For example, during the Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan in 1999, the United States directly shut down GPS services in the region in order to prevent India from being too arrogant. The loss caused the Indian army to be blinded instantly, and the loss was huge, which can be called a tragedy.

In order to break the monopoly of the United States, Russia established its own global satellite navigation system "Glonass", and the European Union also launched "Galileo". During this period, China also wanted to join the European Galileo project, but the result was that after paying the money, the EU refused to provide China with any technology at all, and even blatantly tore up the contract, which also made China more determined to develop The determination of the domestic satellite positioning system.

Compared with participating in the research and development of domestic military vehicles and domestic operating systems before, if Duan Yun and his company can participate in the research and development of Beidou satellite positioning system, it will definitely be a great honor for Duan Yun, in other words , This is a top project related to national strategic security. In contrast, the research and development projects of domestic military vehicles and domestic operating systems cannot be compared with Beidou.

Even if it doesn't make any money, Duan Yun is very willing to participate in this project, because the country's investment in satellites and outer space technology will be huge in the future, and being able to participate in this project is enough to make Duan Yun and Tianyin Group enter the history books.

Another point is that if Tianyin Group can make contributions to the Beidou project, it means that there will be no national-level scientific research projects that Tianyin Group cannot participate in in the future, and it will also gain a high degree of trust from the country. Tianyin Group is no longer a purely private enterprise.

"The superior is still in a meeting to discuss. There should be a specific plan before the end of the year, but you have to be mentally prepared. The superior may not invite your company to participate in this project..." Xu Shaoqiang said.

"Then Mr. Xu and the higher-ups should please respond. As long as we can participate in this project, Tianyin Group will definitely go all out, even if it bears a part of the scientific research funding. For nothing else, we just want to make some contributions to the country. Duan Yun swallowed, and then said: "Mr. Xu, you should also understand me and our company. We are a down-to-earth enterprise. I can say without exaggeration that at present, our domestic enterprises, in terms of Few companies can match our research and development strength..."

"Your boy is really a queen mother-in-law now, and you are not humble at all." Xu Shaoqiang shook his head with a smile, and then said: "Now you don't have to think about so many things, our current matter has not been resolved yet, you Whether the computer operating system can pass the evaluation of experts is still unknown..."

"Then if we pass this test..."

"That proves that your company's research and development strength is indeed top-notch in China." Xu Shaoqiang smiled slightly, and then said: "And I will strongly recommend your company to participate in this new national scientific research project, but at least you have to let it go. The superiors have seen your strength!"
