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

Chapter 651: Two major aerospace groups, different philosophies

Aerospace Research and Development Center.

As the project area that Wang Donglai is focusing on this year, the aerospace business line has received tremendous support.

After the successful launch of the first King Kong rocket, even Wang Donglai put forward two higher space mission requirements.

However, it still did not affect the successful launch of the Kongo rocket.

This time, facing the public sanctions from the Bald Eagle Federation, the reason why the higher-ups were so determined and so quick to give support was because of that.

There is a very important reason, that is, every time the Kongo space rocket is successfully launched, the next time's carrying capacity will be increased a little bit.

From a technical point of view, it is not difficult to connect multiple rocket engines in parallel.

However, in actual operation, it is very difficult.

Because a rocket is so expensive, not many people can afford the responsibility of a failure.

In addition, with each additional rocket engine, there are higher requirements for the control system and the overall system.

However, these difficult problems become very simple in front of Galaxy Technology.

Again.

Galaxy Technology uses the assembly line factory model to manufacture rockets.

The rocket shell is made of stainless steel, and even the welding is done by robots.

During the design and development steps, improve the requirements for personnel's capabilities and qualities.

However, during the manufacturing process, the impact of human factors on the product is infinitely reduced.

Use machines if you can.

No matter how high-tech a rocket is, it is still an industrial product.

Since it is an industrial product, it should be treated with the concept of industrial products.

With this idea in mind, Galaxy Technology made a huge investment in the early stages.

It often costs tens of millions to optimize a process.

If you use people, it would be at most a few hundred thousand, but if you use machines, it would be tens of millions.

It may seem uneconomical, but the stability and sustainability of the machine cannot be compared with manual labor.

This approach, which is different from the current aerospace system, means that every successful rocket launch by Galaxy Technology is an invisible impact.

Fortunately, Wang Donglai has reached a cooperation agreement with the aerospace system.

The two major aerospace industry groups also actively cooperated.

In this way, we can save face.

The top leaders are very supportive of the emergence of aerospace catfish like Galaxy Technology.

Just like the lunar exploration proposed by Wang Donglai, the two major aerospace groups provided some key technologies.

at this time.

Wang Donglai is hosting a technical discussion meeting.

There were not many people attending the meeting, including Yang Anchao, Zhang Xiaoping and engineers from Galaxy Technology, as well as a team of technical experts sent by two major aerospace groups.

"Chairman, we have completed the technical adjustment of connecting ten Hercules rocket engines in parallel, successfully increasing the total thrust to the world's top level, and can carry more than 100 tons of supplies."

"If we continue at this level, with about ten more launch missions, we will be able to launch all the supplies needed for the space station."

"If we continue to connect the engines in parallel, the thrust can be further increased, the weight of the cargo can be raised to a higher level, and the time required can be reduced."

"However, the more rocket engines are connected in parallel, the lower the safety will be, and the higher the requirements for the operating system will be."

After hearing Yang Anchao's report, Wang Donglai nodded gently, looked at Zhang Xiaoping, and said, "Engineer Zhang, one hundred tons of supplies may seem like a lot, but it's actually not much at all."

"Because our space station is called a space station, it can actually be regarded as an alternative space base."

"In this space station, we have set up a space experiment area, where we will conduct scientific experiments in biology, materials, physics and chemistry."

"In addition to these, we also need to reserve a comfortable activity space so that our space mission personnel can live more comfortably."

"Also, this space station will continue to develop, and the many interfaces reserved are for future development."

"It can only be said that the establishment of the space station is only the first step, and there will be many more tasks to follow."

“So, your work is very important and you can’t stop yet.”

"We need rocket engines with greater thrust, more suitable rocket manufacturing materials, and better control systems."

"At present, each time we launch a rocket, it costs about 200 million yuan."

"The cost is still too high. I hope to continue to develop technology to reduce the cost."

“I hope everyone will work together on this!”

Wang Donglai's tone was full of confidence, as if he was certain that these would be realized.

Zhang Xiaoping couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

Ever since he entered Galaxy Technology, he felt like he was dreaming.

He used to work in a research institute. Although he was an engineer and mastered the core technology of cryogenic engines, he was never taken seriously.

So, when he learned that Galaxy Technology was planning to develop aerospace business and found him, he did not hesitate for too long and chose to change jobs directly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I changed jobs, the research institute launched a counterattack and even wanted to sue me.

This incident caused a big stir, and at the time he thought he would be held accountable and that Galaxy Technology would be affected as a result.

In the end, none of these things happened.

He is also highly valued in Galaxy Technology.

The most important thing is that he witnessed with his own eyes Wang Donglai’s terrifying learning and research and development capabilities.

A technical problem that had troubled the entire team for ten days or half a month could be solved in less than a minute by Wang Dong.

However, Wang Donglai did not do this often. Most of the time he just gave a general idea of ​​the technology and let them figure it out on their own.

Under the pretext of training their abilities, we can't let the boss do all the work. If we do that, they will be unemployed.

Once, twice, three times.

After meeting him several times, Zhang Xiaoping became a die-hard fan of Wang Donglai.

I have great confidence in Wang Donglai's R&D talent.

Under the influence of this mentality, Zhang Xiaoping rekindled his enthusiasm for learning, and with the guidance of Wang Donglai, his professional ability level also improved rapidly.

From a cryogenic rocket engine engineer, he gradually transformed into an aerospace propulsion engineer.

That's why I can be here now to attend this meeting.

At this moment, I heard the task assigned by Wang Donglai.

Zhang Xiaoping smiled bitterly, but not because of anything else.

It was because he subconsciously compared it with his previous experience in the research institute.

This kind of situation has also happened in the research institute.

The leader's words are enough to make the people below run around.

Propose a nearly impossible task and force them to engage in research and development.

The same thing.

But it’s different here at Galaxy Technology.

The difference is that Wang Donglai understands technology, is willing to delegate power, and also takes responsibility.

Give more, don't make empty promises. This will naturally motivate everyone.

"If the research institute could be like this, it would have landed on the moon long ago!"

This thought suddenly occurred to Zhang Xiaoping.

These emotions may seem like a lot, but in fact they only pass in a moment.

"Don't worry, Chairman. I will launch the project after the meeting."

Zhang Xiaoping didn't make any guarantees.

Because he knew that he couldn't do it on his own.

In terms of some core technologies, I'm afraid we still need Wang Donglai's assistance.

"Engineer Zheng, Engineer Qi, have you adapted to our environment these past two days?"

Wang Donglai then asked experts from the two major aerospace groups.

The two major aerospace groups in China are China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation and China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation.

As the two core enterprises in the domestic aerospace field, each of them undertakes different missions and tasks.

The Ministry of Aerospace Science and Technology, or CASC for short, focuses on the civil aerospace industry and is responsible for the development and launch of satellites, launch vehicles and other spacecraft.

The core mission is the research, development and production of aerospace products including launch vehicles, satellites, manned spacecraft and space stations.

The main achievements include the implementation of the Shenzhou spacecraft project, the Chang'e lunar exploration project and the Beidou satellite navigation satellite system.

The main task of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, which is known as China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation together with China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, is to focus on the national defense and military industry. It is mainly engaged in the research and development and manufacturing of missile systems, and promotes military-civilian integration.

The core tasks include the development and production of weapon systems such as air defense missiles and cruise missiles.

Logically speaking, CASIC and Galaxy Technology do not have much reason to cooperate.

But that's just theoretically speaking.

The thrust of the Hercules rocket engine breaks the record of domestic rocket engines. This alone is worth the cooperation between CASIC and Galaxy Technology.

Not to mention Wang Donglai’s many achievements in the military field.

Therefore, the emergence of CASIC was both unexpected and reasonable.

Engineer Zheng comes from Aerospace Science and Technology. He always has a smile on his face and looks very gentle.

When Wang Donglai asked, he smiled and said, "I've heard that your group values ​​talent before. It really lives up to its reputation."

"The humanistic care work is very good, and I just don't want to leave."

“I am personally looking forward to this cooperation.”

"I have a feeling we're going to do something amazing."

When Mr. Zheng said these words, his expression was extremely serious, and it was obvious that he meant them from the bottom of his heart.

After Engineer Zheng finished speaking, Engineer Qi also spoke.

Unlike Engineer Zheng, Engineer Qi has a more steely temperament and speaks in a very strict manner.

"Academician Wang, after these two days of observation, I still recognize your company's scientific research strength."

"But I have to disagree with your company's way of working."

"The cause we are carrying out is a cause that concerns the development of the country and human civilization, and it is of great significance."

“But I don’t see that here in your company.”

"I've noticed that many of your company's employees are not motivated or enthusiastic enough about their work."

"Often before nine o'clock, there is no one here at all."

"Most employees leave work when the time comes, and those who want to stay to work overtime have to apply for it."

"I think your company can definitely change its employee management regulations to speed up research and development."

After hearing what Qi Gong said, Yang Anchao showed a puzzled look on his face.

Seemingly surprised and somewhat disappointed.

Wang Donglai's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes became calmer. He asked, "Engineer Qi, is there anything else?"

Qi Gong was not a fool, so he knew that what he said was a bit rash.

But he has a clear conscience.

All for the development of aerospace industry!

“These are the problems I’ve found so far.”

"Except for the problem I found, your company is quite good in other aspects. I am confident that I can make new contributions to the aerospace industry together with your company."

Qi Gong said seriously.

After Qi Gong finished speaking, Wang Donglai spoke up: "Qi Gong, I want to respond to the problem you pointed out."

"First of all, I don't deny what Mr. Qi said. The importance of the aerospace industry is beyond doubt."

“The resources on Earth are limited, and the universe is full of unknowns. We humans must step out of Earth, into the universe, and explore the unknown world.”

"From this point of view, the cause we are engaged in is noble and extremely meaningful."

"but!"

“As human beings, we are the ones who master tools and use them to understand and transform the world.”

“This order cannot be reversed. Just because the cause we are engaged in is noble, we cannot be deprived of our other rights as human beings.”

“For example, our right to rest!”

"Galaxy Technology employees have fixed working hours. Even for some special positions, if they need to work overtime, they need to apply for approval."

"I don't want to be in a position where we can justifiably exploit our employees' time just because we're in a business that matters."

"Even if overtime is paid, this is not acceptable."

"I once said something at a management meeting of Galaxy Technology, that overtime is a formality used by subordinates to fight against the bureaucracy of their superiors."

“Assigning appropriate tasks to employees can motivate them to work more enthusiastically and proactively.”

"What's more, we are engaged in the high-tech aerospace industry."

"Simply relying on extending employees' working hours to achieve greater output."

"There is a huge market for this in the light industry or service sector."

"But in a high-tech industry like aerospace, this approach is not feasible."

“Some important technological breakthroughs cannot be achieved by engineers thinking all night long.”

“In the 21st century, the most important thing is talent.”

“We cannot take talents as pennies as we can and use them like dirt.”

"Galaxy Technology is a high-tech company based on technology research and development. Respect for talent is ingrained in us."

"I beg your pardon that I cannot agree with what Qi Gong said."

"For the next cooperation, we will still implement our original working system."

Wang Donglai said this neither humbly nor arrogantly.

However, everyone knew that this was a complete denial of Qi Gong.

Facing Wang Donglai's rejection, Qi Gong's face turned extremely ugly. (End of this chapter)
