Thirty Entrepreneurship: Recycling of second-hand aircraft carriers at the beginning

Chapter 554: Various Collections of Single-Person Flying Vehicles
"I've specially set aside a day today to discuss something with you." Fang Lan said, "I have an idea for the new play, and it's related to you."

"I know it has something to do with me, but I don't know what."

Lin Chen was serious at this moment. The two of them had not had a good chat except for attending the film festival.

Both of them are career-oriented and busy, but they have a tacit understanding.

"I've specially set aside a day today to discuss something with you." Fang Lan said, "I have an idea for the new play, and it's related to you."

"I know it has something to do with you, but I don't know what."

Lin Chen was serious at this moment, knowing that Fang Lan had specially set aside a day to talk to him.

"You are really the most suitable one, and it won't take you too long, and your role isn't that big. Although I'm asking you for help, it will definitely not be in vain."

"This is not a free job at all, but there are so many male celebrities in the industry to choose from, give them a chance!"

"That won't do." Fang Lan pouted and shook her head. "Opportunities should be reserved for family members. The main thing is that I really think you are the most suitable, even if it's just to help you."

Fang Lan is now a producer and screenwriter. She has worked with the director before, and overall it is her own business.

This time, they did not choose Lin Chen's funds. They found sponsorship from multiple parties and combined their own investment to solve the problem.

Lin Chen looked at Fang Lan and understood in his heart. Although he did not agree immediately, he had already thought about agreeing. After all, it was Fang Lan who asked him to come.

He felt that Fang Lan always asked him for help, and it was almost becoming a habit, and he was afraid that it would become a habit again.

Lin Chen was still hesitant and thinking about his future film and television career, so Fang Lan asked, "How is it? Let me tell you about this role. He's a prince. He doesn't appear much, but he's super handsome."

"According to what you said, it seems that I have already agreed, right?" Lin Chen asked Fang Lan with a smile on his face.

Fang Lan knew it was basically a sure thing, and said happily: "Of course, we thought about this role for a long time and finally decided to find you!"

"If you come to me every time there's a role, it'll really make other people in the industry give up."

Fang Lan didn't care about all that, as long as Lin Chen agreed.

Faced with Fang Lan's request for help, Lin Chen couldn't possibly refuse, especially since it was not a difficult task.

Just like that, now that the role has been decided, Lin Chen looked at the personal aircraft he was going to develop, and decided to start his own research and development work no matter what after the filming of this scene was completed.

It’s still early for filming, but there is one thing Lin Chen needs to do in advance, which is to take trial makeup photos and final makeup photos.

Fang Lan and director Yu Xiaowen had already thought about the role of Lin Chen, so there were basically no test makeup photos. Generally speaking, the makeup and hair were decided on the day of shooting.

Just as Fang Lan said, the character of Lin Chen is a meticulously crafted wealthy prince, and both the headgear and clothing are extremely delicate.

Lin Chen finished her makeup and hair, looking at Yu Xiaowen and Fang Lan beside her, she couldn't help but say, "This is much better than the group performance."

He had worn extras' costumes before, and the two were indeed very different.

Yu Xiaowen looked at Lin Chen and said, "Of course, the positioning is different, and the audience's attention span is also different!"

"Are you sure I will only come for one day to finish filming all my roles?" Lin Chen always felt that the expressions and words of the two people in front of him were not right from morning to night!
Fang Lan immediately assured: "Really, I wrote this role with you in mind, so I hope you can play it no matter what."

This was the first time Lin Chen heard of this situation, and he was glad that he agreed.

The assistant photographer looked at Lin Chen and the director and producer surrounding him, and couldn't help but whisper to his own photographer: "Several actors are taking makeup photos today, but looking at this posture, someone who doesn't know would think that Boss Lin is the male lead!"

The photographer glanced at the assistant and said, "The director and producer begged him to come here! How can Boss Lin have time to shoot a movie?"

No one at the scene spoke. They concentrated on the work at hand, occasionally glancing towards Lin Chen.

After taking the final photos, Lin Chen left the studio and Fang Lan saw him out.

When Lin Chen was about to get in the car, Fang Lan hurriedly pulled him back and said, "So handsome, so handsome, if you didn't know him you would have thought he was the leading actor."

Fang Lan praised him but was a little worried at the same time. Lin Chen didn't think much about it and drove away quickly.

When Fang Lan returned, Yu Xiaowen noticed that she was in a bad mood.

I came over and asked her, "What's wrong? You become like this as soon as they leave."

Fang Lan said: "I suddenly thought of some problems and felt that I had caused trouble for Lin Chen."

"What trouble? He has plenty of money and time. I don't think we've caused him any trouble."

"I'm worried about what other staff members or actors will think. Will they think that Lin Chen arranged such a good role and treatment for him just because we are acquaintances?"

"It's because he's an acquaintance that we can invite him here, isn't it?"

"No, I mean, we clearly invited him here, but I'm afraid some people don't know and think he just came here to show off because he has money and resources."

Yu Xiaowen said "Oh" and understood Fang Lan's concerns.

"So you're worried that your boss Lin will be misunderstood! You're just overthinking it. Lin Chen doesn't care about these things at all, and he won't say anything. We can explain this problem clearly. Leave it to me!"

Yu Xiaowen promised Fang Lan not to worry.

It was through online information that Lin Chen truly realized the impact of his makeup photos.

After the final makeup photos of the new drama came out, the crew started promoting it. This is a routine operation.

That day, Lin Chen had just sorted out the basic parts of his personal aircraft and was preparing to take a break when he saw it. He also received a call from the staff, asking him to forward and promote it.

The pictures and text are ready, he just needs to forward it.

A few seconds later, he received a bunch of messages.

"This is the drama I've been looking forward to because it has Lin Chen in it. Even if he plays a supporting role, just a supporting role for a few episodes, I'm looking forward to it!"

"I have read the novel, and this is how the character is described in the novel. I hope the play will be different from the original."

"Has no one noticed that this time the period costume roles have helped save the reputation of the period costume actors?"

"The world has suffered from ugly men in ancient costumes for a long time, and finally someone comes to cleanse their eyes."

"Haven't you noticed? Lin Chen has played many roles. Is he trying to use his status as a big shot to steal other male actors' jobs? The key is that he is sure to win."

"The official response was that Fang Lan and Yu Xiaowen specifically invited Lin Chen to act. Yu Xiaowen even said that he had to work hard to persuade him."

"It seems like a friendly performance, it really helps."

"Everyone knows that Lin Chen is the traffic code. He is rich and handsome. Whoever can invite him has real talent."

……

Lin Chen couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at his unfinished personal aircraft research, he felt that filming was a waste of time.

He didn't expect that this little episode would have such a big impact.

Walton's people have never given up on understanding Lin Chen and have always kept an eye on his movements in Linhai.

They never expected that Lin Chen, a person to be protected by the military, would be connected with the entertainment industry, and that there was a tendency for good development.

After receiving the information reported by his subordinates, Brunger sighed heavily. "It's not our fault for not doing our job well. Looking at his current development trend, it's normal that we can't win him over!"

Cook beside him also said: "Lin Chen, do you want to continue to follow up on this?"

"No need to put more energy into it. Just pay attention to him normally. I don't think there's a chance that we can really win him over. But it's not useless. Pay attention to the situation with Logan. You can still get what you need from Lin Chen."

Cook accepted the new task and knew that Lin Chen's side was no longer in the previous high-level alert situation, so he could relax and follow up.

Lin Chen knew that the number of people following him was decreasing, and he knew Walton had not stopped following him, but he found it incredible that these people suddenly retreated.

There is no need to know the specific reasons, as long as you can do your own thing with more peace of mind.

Next, the highlight is the research and development of personal flying vehicles.

In the office of the Everything Can Be Repaired Factory, the computer screen in front of Lin Chen was displaying the information he just needed.

Single-person aircraft is not only Lin Chen's research direction, but many people in other countries are also interested in it.

Moreover, some people have already started research and development and posted their ideas online.

At this moment, Lin Chen's computer was displaying another single-person aircraft that had entered the experimental stage.

The appearance of this aircraft is somewhat similar to that of an F1 racing car, the difference being that it has eight propellers on both sides of the body serving as thrusters.

These propellers can generate upward lift to overcome the gravity of the aircraft and ultimately achieve propulsion.

In Lin Chen's opinion, the single-person aircraft in the video is one of several foreign inventions that is closest to his idea.

This aircraft is designed mainly for single-person flight. It uses lightweight aluminum, composite carbon fiber and 3D printed components. It weighs only kilograms, making it one of the lightest aircraft currently available.

This was designed by Ruishi's R&D personnel. When not in use, the propeller can be folded up to take up less space.

Compared with Itinerary's design, this aircraft has a significantly higher flying altitude, reaching 1,500 meters, while Itinerary's single-person aircraft can only reach five meters, and has almost been eliminated among many aircraft.

Lin Chen directly skipped Itlin's design and kept this Ruishi semi-recumbent aircraft.

However, the fact that the driver needs to lie down halfway to operate it may be a disadvantage.

Lin Chen saved this option and found another aircraft-style jet-powered aircraft.

This single-person aircraft is equipped with a small aircraft engine inside, and the fuel can provide the aircraft with the power needed for flight.

It is a wing-suit aircraft that can even reach the flying altitude and speed of an airplane.

However, in Lin Chen's view, this advantage has become a disadvantage, because it is not suitable for low-altitude flight, and the high speed also means that it is not suitable for ordinary people's daily travel. Lin Chen decisively ruled it out.

Then, a hoverboard aircraft came into Lin Chen's sight.

This is the work of the Rex R&D team. The principle is not complicated. It only requires cooling the superconductor to minus 197 degrees Celsius and using the repulsion properties of magnets to make it float on the metal surface.

However, this aircraft was also eliminated by Lin Chen because it can only be used in specific scenarios, which does not meet Lin Chen's desire to use it casually on land in daily life.

Therefore, Lin Chen officially started the production of single-person aircraft based on the idea of ​​making it as convenient as driving a car in daily life.

In just one afternoon, the single-person aircraft he had in mind was born.

Of course, it is necessary to experiment. This aircraft is quite convenient, occupies a small area, is easy to park, simple to operate, and very safe.

After a test flight, Lin Chen officially confirmed that his single-person aircraft had been completed. Once the follow-up matters were dealt with, he could launch it to the market.

At this time, Li Xue came to Lin Chen with a mission. Seeing that Lin Chen was about to close the door, she simply stopped outside the door.

Originally, Lin Chen planned to close the factory gate and leave, but when he turned around and saw Li Xue, he opened the rolling door again.

"Come in and talk?"

Seeing the shutter door open again, Li Xue said apologetically, "I didn't want to disturb you at work. It's okay if we talk outside."

"You're welcome. There's no point in standing outside when guests are here."

Lin Chen invited Li Xue in, and Li Xue walked in naturally.

"What's this new equipment?"

Li Xue pointed at something parked on the ground, which was obviously a new development.

"A single-person aircraft." Lin Chen explained.

Li Xue nodded, her eyes fixed on the aircraft.

This aircraft is somewhat similar to the minimalist electric car in daily life, except that it has no wheels and is a completely flat design that can be used as a parking support and for pedaling.

There are also handrails and seats, the difference is that the handrails are very close to the seats.

"This looks quite simple. I didn't expect it to be a single-person aircraft. Is it already a finished product?"

Faced with Li Xue's curiosity, Lin Chen decided to introduce her to the functions of this single-person aircraft.

"Its main purpose is to help people get where they want to go faster in their daily lives."

"Indeed, it seems that traffic jams can be effectively avoided."

Li Xue agreed with Lin Chen's statement very much, and she was looking forward to Lin Chen's next explanation.

Lin Chen then introduced: "The operation is very simple. One handle controls the left, right, forward and backward flight, and the other handle controls the speed."

While Lin Chen was introducing the single-person aircraft to Li Xue, he started it up.

A palm-sized electronic display screen lit up, showing not only numbers but also various other symbols.

When Li Xue looked closer, Lin Chen explained: "This display screen not only shows the speed, but also has an early warning function."

"Warning?" Li Xue was a little curious.

"Yes, I equipped it with an onboard computer and lidar to assist in flying and avoiding obstacles."

Li Xue was no longer surprised by the endless stream of magical equipment here at Lin Chen's place, and the single-person flying vehicle in front of her was no exception.

As she admired him, she remembered her mission and said quickly, "I almost forgot. I came here with a mission."

Under Lin Chen's gaze, Li Xue said, "Boss Lin, the military district wants to order a few more of the tank robots we developed last time."

"How many?" Lin Chen asked.

"Ten vehicles, and this batch of goods is needed urgently. Can Boss Lin make them as soon as possible?"

Li Xue looked at Lin Chen with anticipation. She knew Lin Chen's abilities, but was worried that he would not be able to accept urgent orders.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "So that's what it is. No problem, I will expedite it, but it will take three or four days. Can you wait?"

"Okay! This is already very fast, beyond our expectations!" Li Xue smiled happily and responded readily.
