When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

As the head of the space agency, Deng Tao's rank is not low.

However, at this moment, he did not show his leadership aura in front of Wang Donglai, but instead behaved in an extremely calm and friendly manner.

Both of them are smart people, and after chatting for a few sentences, they understood each other's thoughts.

The meaning conveyed by Deng Tao's words is actually very simple.

In fact, he was just trying to show goodwill to Wang Donglai!
Logically speaking, there is no need for Deng Tao to do this.

But Deng Tao did just that.

The reason is very simple, that is, Wang Donglai is too valuable.

Deng Tao realized this after Wang Donglai proposed the idea of ​​the sixth-generation aircraft. As this design concept plan was submitted, Wang Donglai's status in the hearts of the leaders above would inevitably be improved again.

Although Wang Donglai does not hold any prominent position, once his academic status in the field of scientific research has reached a certain level, the abilities he can demonstrate are unparalleled.

"Academician Wang, Chief Engineer Yang, the occurrence of this kind of thing is also a shortcoming in our work. I plan to include this matter in the meeting points, and then we will hold a general meeting to discuss it and make an appropriate decision."

"In my opinion, academicians are our country's high-level professional talents. We must give them enough respect, no matter what field or discipline they are in."

"Although many people think that leaving the institute and going to private enterprises is a huge waste, I don't think it's a big deal."

"Whether it is a government-run research institute or a private enterprise, they are an important part of the country's economic development."

“As long as you have the ability, you can play your part no matter where you are.”

"So, I support Chief Engineer Yang's choice!"

"Of course, the premise is that you must abide by the laws and regulations of the country and cannot violate them."

Wang Donglai nodded without hesitation when he heard this and said, "Director Deng is right. No matter what kind of business or academic research you do, you must abide by the laws and regulations."

Deng Tao smiled faintly and said, "Yes, I feel more relieved that Academician Wang has such awareness."

"I also strongly support Galaxy Technology's development of aerospace rocket business. Allowing private capital to enter can indeed play a positive role."

"Just like the Hercules engine developed by Academician Wang, if this restriction had not been lifted, I'm afraid this engine might not have appeared."

"Not to mention Academician Wang's plan for the development of my country's aerospace industry and the idea of ​​the sixth-generation aircraft he has proposed."

"I dare not even think about how many years it would take for my country's aerospace technology to catch up with the advanced level of the West if Academician Wang had not appeared."

"Now, a genius like Academician Wang has finally appeared. We must not miss it."

"To be honest with Academician Wang, the design concept you proposed for the sixth-generation aircraft was sent to Beijing after a vote at the meeting and handed over to the leaders above for decision-making."

"I think the higher-ups should have made a decision in the past two days."

When Wang Donglai heard Deng Tao mention this, his expression changed slightly.

"Director Deng, the reason I mentioned the sixth-generation aircraft is actually just out of the patriotic sentiments of an ordinary citizen."

"As a Chinese, I certainly want to see my country prosper and become stronger."

"As for other things like project leadership, I don't have much idea."

"After all, I still have a lot of projects that need my attention."

Deng Tao nodded suddenly to show his understanding.

What Wang Dong said was the truth. The aerospace development plan he had proposed before, as well as the photolithography factory, were extremely important projects and were of great importance.

Therefore, the primary goal for 2017 is to complete these first.

……

Beijing.

The core place.

In a simple and quaint study, an old man was leaning on a chair with his eyes closed to rest.

At this time, the secretary walked in quietly and placed a document on the old man's desk.

"Xiao Han, where did you send this document from?"

Although the secretary's movements were very light, they still caught the old man's attention.

The old man opened his eyes, a flash of fatigue flashed across his eyes, and he asked with all his energy.

The secretary did not expect that he had disturbed the old man's rest, but he reacted quickly and replied immediately: "Leader, this is a report sent by Chief Hu on the concept of the sixth-generation aircraft."

"Oh?"

The old man suddenly became alert, sat up straight, looked at the document, and asked curiously, "I remember Comrade Hu Lang went to Shu to participate in the J-20 update meeting. How did this document appear?"

"The author of this sixth-generation aircraft concept report is Academician Wang. Commander Hu also gave a brief report on the situation at the time and sent the relevant meeting minutes, which are indeed correct!"

The secretary did not dare to be careless and quickly told everything he knew.

The old man nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He opened the file and started looking through it.

While checking, he asked the secretary: "I remember that Academician Wang is working on a photolithography factory project and is planning to launch twelve rockets next year?"

When the secretary heard the old man's question, he immediately answered.

“Leader, yes!”

After listening to this, the old man said nothing more and focused all his attention on the document in front of him.

This report does not simply copy Wang Donglai's idea of ​​the sixth-generation aircraft, but adds a lot of professional data and information.

Therefore, even people who are not familiar with the relevant technology can still learn some information through the data.

The old man didn't read very quickly, and he would stop at some places to think carefully for a while.

A document that should have only taken three to five minutes to read took me a full ten minutes this time.

The secretary noticed the time and had an idea of ​​what was going on.

"Photolithography factory, space rocket, sixth-generation aircraft..."

The old man muttered these words, with a look of hesitation on his face.

However, the old man didn't hesitate for long before his expression returned to calm.

"Now, let the think tank produce a detailed analysis."

The old man gave the order in a calm tone.

"Okay, leader!"

The secretary nodded readily and went downstairs to deal with these matters.

After the secretary left, the old man carefully placed the document aside.

Three hours later.

The secretary returned to the old man's office with a slightly thick document in his hand.

Without further ado, the secretary placed the documents on the old man's desk, closed the door, and waited outside.

The old man did not open the document to check it immediately, but finished the things at hand first.

Twenty minutes later, after finishing his work, the old man opened the file and started to check it.

As an old man, he has too much to shoulder.

But at the same time, there are many things he is not good at, so there are think tanks.

A think tank is a group of people with extraordinary abilities and extremely high professional levels who are specially selected to provide support.

Just like Wang Donglai's sixth-generation aircraft concept, the old man couldn't tell whether some of the technologies in it were feasible or could play a huge role on the future battlefield. At this time, he could let the professionals in the think tank make judgments based on their professional knowledge, and then he only needed to make the decision.

This report document contains a lot of information.

It includes Wang Donglai's academic experience, award-winning experience, and business experience.

Although I dare not say that I have thoroughly investigated Wang Donglai, there are definitely no major omissions.

After reading it, the old man kept tapping his fingers on the table.

"Tuk...tuk...tuk..."

His eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, obviously embarrassed or confused.

However, this expression did not last long.

The old man regained his composure and pressed a button on the table.

The secretary outside the door walked in the next second.

"Arrange a special plane to bring Comrade Hu Lang and Academician Wang back. I want to meet Academician Wang in person."

The secretary was obviously a little surprised. He looked at the old man in shock, then quickly controlled his emotions and regained his composure.

"Leader, I'll arrange it right away!"

Nodding, the secretary left the study again.

……

Shu capital.

Originally, as a representative of the military, Chief Hu only needed to show up on the first day.

The subsequent matters can be handed over to the people below to complete.

However, after the incident with Wang Donglai, Chief Hu changed his mind, canceled his subsequent trip, and stayed in Shu.

Although he did not stay by Wang Donglai's side all the time, his actions could not be hidden from anyone who was interested.

Those who know about this understand how attractive the sixth-generation aircraft concept proposed by Wang Donglai is to the military represented by Chief Hu.

It can be said that the military is the one that most supports Wang Donglai in investing in the research and development of the sixth-generation aircraft as soon as possible.

The discussion meeting over the past two days went very smoothly because of Wang Donglai's participation.

This smoothness far exceeds the speed of previous update iteration discussions.

Therefore, it is reasonable that the duration of this academic conference was shortened.

"I think the J-20 can try to load advanced sensors, airborne phased array fire control radar, built-in large-capacity fuel tanks, and long-range missiles to increase the combat power and lethality of the J-20."

In the conference room, Wang Donglai expressed his opinions in a calm tone.

"Academician Wang, I think what you said makes sense. We can also load full digital glass driving and helmet display on the J-20. The Bald Eagle has already verified the feasibility of these two technologies, and we can completely copy them."

Chief Engineer Yang, the J-20's chief designer, smiled and spoke out.

Hearing what Chief Engineer Yang said, Wang Donglai nodded and said, "There is another point, that is, the appearance of the J-20 will undergo a huge change due to the change of the engine, which happens to be what I am good at."

"I've gotten some ideas in the past two days. If I think about it for another two days, there shouldn't be any problems!"

The J-20 adopts a canard design, which has the advantage of shortening the takeoff distance when the fighter is gliding. This makes it very convenient for the aircraft to take off and land at short distances. It can also increase the fighter's lift and agility, which greatly improves the fighter's maneuverability. It can also use a smaller wing area to obtain greater lift for the entire aircraft. This advantage can also reduce the structural weight of the aircraft.

Everything has advantages and disadvantages.

The biggest disadvantage of the canard design is that it is prone to stall at high angles of attack.

In addition, the canard layout will also increase the front area of ​​the fuselage, and the stealth performance of the fighter will be greatly reduced when facing radar searches.

Countries with strong engine technology, such as Bald Eagle and Big Hair, have top engine industries and first-class thrust, so in order to avoid the weaknesses of the canard design, they simply gave up the canard design.

However, China's engine technology is weak, so it naturally does not have such confidence and can only bite the bullet and use the canard design.

However, this situation may finally be changing.

The 'Hercules' rocket engine developed by Wang Donglai came out of nowhere, although it was originally designed for space rockets.

However, the technical ability and research talent demonstrated by Wang Donglai have been recognized by everyone.

With his ability, he can definitely build a top-notch fighter engine.

And this is also the important reason why Wang Donglai was invited here.

"I am absolutely confident that Academician Wang will take action!"

"Although I am the chief designer of the J-20, this fighter has already made its maiden flight and made its debut. After this update, it would be inappropriate to call it the J-20."

"Also, this is unfair to Academician Wang. I propose that the updated fighter be named J-25 to highlight the contribution Academician Wang made in this."

"After all, if it weren't for Academician Wang, there wouldn't be any breakthroughs in these technologies!"

"Academician Wang has made such a great contribution, and he should be given enough respect in all aspects."

at this time.

When Chief Engineer Yang suddenly said this, the expressions of everyone present changed immediately, and they all looked at Chief Engineer Yang and Wang Donglai.

No one expected that General Union Yang would bring up this at this time.

indeed.

If it goes according to design, the performance of the J-20 will take a huge leap after this update.

However, according to common sense, no matter how big the changes are, it is still the J-20, and there is no such thing as changing the name.

What's more, let's analyze it from the perspective of human nature.

Chief Engineer Yang's suggestion also goes against human nature.

What an honor it is to be the chief designer of a fighter jet.

However, Chief Engineer Yang just gave up and was willing to give it to Wang Donglai.

Anyone who hears this will find it abnormal.

The truth is that the two of them are not related at all, and it would never have come to this.

but.

It only takes a moment.

Someone figured out the real intention of Chief Engineer Yang's statement.

It's very simple, this is actually a gesture of goodwill to Wang Donglai.

The sixth-generation aircraft concept proposed by Wang Donglai is definitely excellent.

If the above proposal is adopted, the J-20, as a representative of the fifth-generation aircraft, will not be eliminated immediately, but the resources invested in it will be reduced, as will the amount of attention it receives.

What's more, as a scientific researcher, who doesn't want to participate in more advanced and cutting-edge design projects?

Therefore, Chief Engineer Yang took this approach as a retreat in order to advance.

Faced with this proposal, no normal person would accept it.

No matter how much Wang Donglai hopes in his heart, he will not show it, let alone accept it immediately.

This gave Chief Engineer Yang an opportunity.

After realizing this, many people present were moved.

At this time, Wang Donglai also spoke up. (End of this chapter)
