Chapter 415 Maintenance Completed
He found that Li Xue, who was in charge of the handover, had been waiting there for a long time.

Li Xue's eyes lit up when Lin Chen appeared. She greeted him with a smile on her face, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

"Why is it you?" Lin Chen was a little surprised, but more delighted.

"Are you not welcome?" Li Xue asked mischievously, with a warm smile on her face.

Lin Chen quickly denied it and extended his hand enthusiastically to shake hers.

"Of course you're welcome, but I didn't expect it to be you. You must have arrived a long time ago, why didn't you call me?"

The two walked into the factory while chatting, and vehicles outside drove in one after another.

These vehicles are not the carriers of the original pursuit mortars, but the gun bodies are loaded on transport vehicles for subsequent modification and intelligent coordination.

Lin Chen led Li Xue into the factory and answered her question: "I think you can guess that I will come here. The time is almost the same whether I call or not."

Li Xue thought it made sense, so she stopped pursuing the matter. She turned her attention to the progress of the mortar modification, while Lin Chen explained the current situation to her in detail. He pointed at the vehicles and said, "The quantity is not small, and it will take about three days to complete them all. Conservatively speaking, three days should be enough."

Li Xue burst into laughter after hearing this. Her laughter was hearty and direct, without any feminine reserve. "Who would be willing to wait here after you said that? I can't stay here for two or three days. I'd better find something else to do."

Lin Chen smiled and invited: "If you feel bored and want to come and see how I repair things, you're always welcome."

Unexpectedly, this sentence actually changed Li Xue's attitude. She stopped smiling and thought seriously. "Well, I think it might be more interesting to be with you." So, she quickly changed her mind and decided to stay in the factory.

Lin Chen said no more, but focused on the pursuit cannon in front of him. The system had displayed the current performance of the pursuit cannon on the panel. After careful study, he began to modify it. He selected several suitable modes, skillfully operated the tools, and assembled them carefully. When the modification of the first pursuit cannon was completed, he noticed Li Xue's curious eyes.

Although Li Xue was in charge of the handover, she did not know the specific maintenance work. She looked at the modified pursuit gun with doubts in her eyes. "Is the modification complete? It seems that there is no change."

Lin Chen was in a good mood and explained to her, "The modification has been completed. Let me give you a brief introduction and you will know what changes have been made." As he spoke, he made way to allow Li Xue to watch from a more suitable angle.

"There are no additional aerodynamic control surfaces here. Instead, the trajectory is adjusted by the pulse engine on the side of the monomer." Lin Chen explained in detail.

Li Xue suddenly realized: "Oh, I see! Is it true that when it needs to adjust its target, the pulse inside will be activated to adjust its position?"

"That's right." Lin Chen looked at her with appreciation, "You understand very quickly."

Li Xue continued to ask: "Then are the number and range of adjustments of this pulse limited?"

Lin Chen turned to look at her, secretly surprised at her sharpness and insight.

"Indeed. This type of guidance is more like a ballistic correction projectile, mainly used to ensure strike accuracy, rather than tracking and striking moving targets like a real guidance projectile."

Li Xue listened with great interest. She realized that she was indeed a layman in this area, but at the same time she also expressed deep admiration for Lin Chen's professional knowledge.

"I thought you hadn't considered these things before, but it turns out I was the one who took them for granted," she said frankly.

Lin Chen smiled and shook his head: "It's normal to think this way. After all, you are not an expert in this field."

In the following time, Lin Chen concentrated on the modification work.

Li Xue stayed by his side the whole time, observing every detail. After a day and a half of hard work, all the pursuit guns were modified. Li Xue did not leave the factory during this period. She was always by Lin Chen's side and witnessed the entire modification process.

When the last job was completed, Lin Chen washed the oil off his hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's one day ahead of schedule." He said to Li Xue.

Li Xue nodded: "Although this is the case, my vacation will not be extended by one day. Now that the repairs are completed, I have to lead the team back."

Lin Chen joked, "You are so dedicated! But you still have time for lunch, right?" He invited Li Xue and the soldiers she brought with her to have lunch together. Li Xue readily agreed.

After lunch, without much greeting or farewell, Li Xue led the team away. Lin Chen looked at their departing backs, and an inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart. After being busy for a while, he finally had a moment of leisure. He took out his cell phone and called Fang Lan.

On the other end of the phone, Fang Lan answered quickly, but her tone seemed a little cold: "You still remember to make a phone call?"

Lin Chen smiled and responded: "Aren't we connected? Where are you now? I'll be there soon!" He knew that although he had neglected Fang Lan during this period due to his busy work, their hearts were always closely connected. He looked forward to meeting Fang Lan, and also looked forward to more challenges and opportunities in the future.

The key point is that Fang Lan did not blame him for that trivial matter. Her behavior just now was just a kind of coquettishness on her part, and she soon shifted her attention to other things.

"We are now in the shooting area of ​​the studio. You should be familiar with this place. You can just drive here when the time comes." There was a sense of familiarity and kindness in Fang Lan's words.

The so-called studio area is actually a relatively remote shooting base located near a town on the edge of Linhai City, gently surrounded by mountains. The area here is vast, and all the venues are carefully prepared for studio shooting. Lin Chen had come here to investigate with Fang Lan and others before. He started the car again, adjusted the navigation, and followed the guidance of the navigation. When he arrived at the destination, the foot of the mountain was already bustling with people, and a busy scene came into view. There are also many buildings that look like large warehouses, but they are actually studios. There are a total of six studios in this area, plus four prop warehouses, which is quite large.

Lin Chen parked the car in the well-built parking lot and then walked to the direction of the studio. Fang Lan and his team rented Studio No. 1 and a prop library. Usually, many crews do not rent a prop library alone, but choose to share it with other crews.

When Lin Chen walked to the door of Studio No. 1, assistant director Xiao Deng spotted him and greeted him warmly, "Brother Lin, please come this way." Lin Chen followed the direction he indicated and walked into Studio No. 1 together.

This No. 1 studio was previously used by the crew of "Yuan Chong" to set up a "prison cell". The mid-ground part can fully meet the needs, so Fang Lan and her team chose this place. Xiao Deng led Lin Chen to the central position. Although he was not completely close to Fang Lan, he could already see her clearly. Xiao Deng greeted Lin Chen and left in a hurry because he had other matters to deal with.

Although Lin Chen and Fang Lan were some distance apart, they still exchanged glances and greeted each other. However, Lin Chen did not go forward to disturb them at this time, because Fang Lan and Deji were arranging for the person in charge to set up the scene and decorate. Lin Chen took this opportunity to carefully observe the studio.

This is a closed space with a green cloth already hung inside. In most cases, only simple decoration is needed, and the green cloth can play an important role in post-production. He walked slowly to the right, where the scene previously built by the crew of "Old Nine" was still preserved. Seeing that Lin Chen was quite interested in this, the staff next to him took the initiative to introduce it.

"This is the tomb scene built by the crew of "Old Nine". It has not been dismantled yet. Maybe it can provide convenience for other crews in the future." The staff explained.

"Thank you." Lin Chen responded with a smile, which surprised the staff. He just gave a brief introduction, but received Lin Chen's thanks. He waved his hand quickly and continued to devote himself to his work.

Lin Chen did not leave immediately, but was deeply attracted by the tomb scene. The drama "Old Nine" is about tomb robbing, and the tomb is very realistic, which shows that the crew invested a lot of manpower and material resources at that time. Therefore, the subsequent crew usually does not dismantle this scene unless there is a special need, but chooses to keep it for use by other crews.

Lin Chen walked into the "tomb" and took a look around. Although the layout was lifelike, it was in a studio after all, lacking a real horror atmosphere, so he didn't feel scared. After walking out of the tomb, Fang Lan had finished her work and walked towards him.

"How do you feel?" Fang Lan asked.

"Are you asking about your set or the one left by the crew of "Old Nine"? " Lin Chen asked back.

"I'm asking you what your overall feeling is about our studio?" Fang Lan pulled Lin Chen out of the tomb scene.

After careful consideration, Lin Chen gave his own evaluation: "I think the current production costs and technical means have been greatly improved, and this kind of scenery is really amazing. Many people may not know that the shooting of a play requires such complex preparations and processes."

Lin Chen's words were full of emotion, and then he followed Fang Lan to the scene they had set up earlier. The ground was covered with sand, and a few fake peach trees were planted symbolically, with peach blossoms in full bloom. Although there were only seven or eight trees, against the backdrop of the green cloth, the photo would be a blooming peach forest.

"It's true that every industry has its own unique ways and rules." Lin Chen couldn't help but think of his experience in repairing equipment. He felt that although these seemed different, the principles contained in them were the same, and they were all a combination of technology and operation.

At this time, the machine has been set up, and the fish demon did not turn into a resentful spirit this time, but sacrificed herself and appeared in the peach blossom forest. Here, her state of mind became peaceful, and she was willing to follow the will of heaven and drink the bowl of Mengpo soup.

At the Southern Theater Command, a new order has been issued. Zhang Tianming is arranging his men to conduct a new round of joint exercises, which will be carried out in cooperation with the Northern Theater. An Ran, as a representative of the Northern Theater, was sent to the Southern Theater to participate in this exercise. Fang Weihai has high hopes for An Ran, hoping that he can perform well in this exercise and win glory for the Northern Theater.

After receiving the order, An Ran quickly went to the southern war zone.

There, he met Liu Hai who had been waiting for a long time. Although the two did not meet often, they communicated frequently, especially about the equipment that Lin Chen was repairing. Liu Hai paid special attention to this, not only because An Ran had a close relationship with Lin Chen, but also because he wanted to learn about the new equipment in the northern theater through An Ran so that he could follow up in time.

An Ran came this time to participate in the friendship joint training, to conduct targeted exercises for the situation in the south, in order to enhance the two armies' ability to coordinate operations. Once a real war breaks out, they will be able to respond quickly and achieve twice the result with half the effort.

At the Hengshan Town studio shooting area in Linhai City, Lin Chen was anxiously waiting beside the car. He looked down at the time on his phone and found that more than 20 minutes had passed, but no one answered Fang Lan's call. Seeing this, Lin Chen decided to return to the shooting area to look for Fang Lan.

"Why hasn't Fang Lan come out yet? Didn't she say she was ready?" Lin Chen muttered to himself, but his feet involuntarily walked towards the studio. He had already imagined many scenarios of his reaction after meeting Fang Lan.

The stagehands and other staff were busy finishing up their work. When they saw Lin Chen coming over, they all nodded in acknowledgement.

Lin Chen searched around Shed No. 1 but didn't see Fang Lan. When he was about to make another call, Deji came over.

"Deji!" Lin Chen raised his voice and shouted, while quickening his pace.

Deji was walking in a hurry, but she stopped immediately after hearing Lin Chen's call. She still had a few pages of paper in her hand, and turned around with a bit of surprise on her face: "Why are you here? What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Have you seen Fang Lan?" Lin Chen asked anxiously.

"Eh?" Deji seemed even more surprised. "Didn't she say she had already come to find you?"

After seeing Lin Chen's reaction, she immediately realized something: "Didn't you two run into each other? Logically, she was walking in the direction of the parking lot."

After hearing what Deji said, Lin Chen became even more anxious. "Then we may have gone the wrong way. I'll look for it again." After saying this, he took a few more steps, then turned around and asked, "Aren't you going back with us?"

Deji shook his head: "I have an appointment here and I have something to discuss. You guys go back first."

After saying this, she continued to walk forward in a hurry. Lin Chen became more and more anxious, and he returned to the direction of the parking lot.

At this time, the sun had already set, and the light had become much dimmer. This dim light made people feel insecure, and Lin Chen's mood changed from calm to anxious.
