Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 332 Five days later, rocket launch experiment
Fang Xiaoya got on the electric commuter bus with everyone.

Hu Jiangshan immediately took them to the downstairs of the command center building.

There are people working in the building, but the door is still locked. After all, it is the core brain of the space launch site and a key area. Security measures must be in place, even beyond the scope.

Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong are both very experienced R&D personnel, and they paid close attention to the access control system at the entrance of the building.

The access control system is in a rectangular box, which is a riot-proof box. You need to swipe your fingerprint to open it.

There is a large screen in the box, and both fingerprints and pupils need to be scanned, both steps are indispensable.

If it is a general facility, the door can be opened by swiping the employee card. However, this cannot be done for command facilities like those at a space launch site. Security measures and systems must be at the highest level.

The door opened and Hu Jiangshan led everyone into the building.

Fang Xiaoya and others' eyes lit up. They found themselves in a very spacious hall, as if they had stepped into a palace of technology.

The ceiling of the hall is very high and there is no main light. A soft and bright light is sprinkled from the ceiling, reflecting on the shiny marble floor, and the patterns spread like a nebula.

There is a large screen at the entrance of the hall, facing the door. At this moment, a film is playing, which is about aerospace, and most of them are related to China's aerospace industry.

From the "Dongfanghong-1" that broke through the sky and opened the prelude to China's exploration of the mysteries of the universe, to the Shenzhou series of manned spacecraft that continuously refreshed the new heights of my country's manned space technology, to the low-Earth orbit space station and Beidou satellite that have recently begun to be built, various pictures flashed one after another.

This was specially arranged by Hu Jiangshan. Such an arrangement can not only show a sense of technology, but also express emotions.

Fang Xiaoya, Tao Cong and others looked at each other in disbelief.

After all, Hu Jiangshan is such a young Hong Kong businessman, it is rare for him to play such a video.

The lobby's decoration, design, furnishings and facilities are impeccable.

Of course, everyone in Starry Glory doesn’t really care about any of this.

Fang Xiaoya walked up to Hu Jiangshan and said, "Boss Hu, we mainly want to see the main control room, can we..."

"Okay, I'll take you there now."

"Okay, thank you, Boss Hu."

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly: "You're welcome."

As he spoke, Hu Jiangshan led everyone into the elevator and climbed up.

The command building has nine floors in total, and the main control room is on the eighth floor.

Everyone walked through an intelligent corridor, the sensor door slid open silently, and the main control room of the space launch site came into view.

Almost all the most important instruments and equipment and main control computers of the launch site are here.

Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong looked at each other.

Tao Cong whispered, "So sci-fi."

Tao Cong was right, this place was like a chessboard controlling the universe.

The huge LCD screen fills the entire wall, displaying all kinds of data in real time, like twinkling stars. That is the heartbeat and pulse of the spacecraft.

In front of the control panel, rows of precision instruments flash indicator lights, neatly arranged and each performing its own function, with all functions available, from orbit calculation to signal tracking.

Although the people from Starry Sky Glory were all experts and knowledgeable, they couldn't help but stare in amazement at this moment.

No wonder, the configuration is too high, not just ordinary high.

At this time, there were still employees working in the main control room, and they all looked very young.

At least half of the device is turned on, including the home screen.

The main screen is really big, and it looks to be as big as dozens of 100-inch LCD TVs.

Tao Cong's eyes widened. Having worked in the industry for many years, he was so shocked that he was speechless for a while. It took him a long time to find his voice: "Boss Hu, how much effort does it take to build such a complete equipment?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled. He had already thought of an answer to these questions. Although the other party might not believe him and might think he was fooling them, at least he could give an explanation that the other party could accept.

Sure enough, Tao Cong stopped asking these questions. He had already started to concentrate on checking the instruments and equipment on site.

Hu Jiangshan was also not idle, but checked the work progress of each employee.

These college student employees are still familiarizing themselves with the operating procedures and logic of each system, as well as the most important information reading ability.

The new employees learned very seriously and their attitude was satisfactory. Hu Jiangshan would give them some guidance from time to time.

At the same time, after being shocked, the team members of Starry Glory immediately got back to work.

The main control room is the top priority of this inspection. Everyone has a clear division of labor and looks very carefully, and occasionally they get together to exchange a few words.

"There's something real here, not just for show."

"I agree. I just looked at the main control console. The buttons and levers are standard. It's easy for a professional to use it. All the functions are also complete."

"The flight attitude monitoring system here is very complete. It is turned on and functions properly."

"This place is really great, the technology is very advanced, Boss Hu has invested a lot of money in it."

Hu Jiangshan crossed his arms over his chest, looked at everyone's reactions and faced them with a smile.

After a while, Fang Xiaoya came over and said, "Boss Hu, can the remote control positioning device be powered on? I want to take a look at the function interface."

Fang Xiaoya looked at Hu Jiangshan's expression and added, "It's okay if it's inconvenient. You can help explain it to me."

Remote sensing equipment is very sophisticated and consumes a lot of energy when turned on. Fang Xiaoya feels that this is a bit unreasonable.

"It's okay, I'll turn it on now."

"Ah, thanks."

Hu Jiangshan walked to the remote sensing instrument control console, turned on the power of the equipment, and entered the power-on command very quickly, and the remote sensing equipment entered the power-on state.

In addition to Fang Xiaoya, Tao Cong also came over.

Both of them were very surprised that Hu Jiangshan operated the equipment so smoothly and it was obvious that he was very good at it.

Is Hu Jiangshan also a space expert?
That's impossible. Hu Jiangshan is clearly a rich second-generation from Hong Kong Island, a playboy, and even has a bad reputation as a prodigal son. How could he have such ability?
But no matter how outrageous it is, Hu Jiangshan has now performed it so vividly, leaving people speechless.

However, Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong quickly shifted their attention to the screen of the remote sensing equipment.

Remote sensing equipment is very important. It is an important launch support auxiliary equipment and is even directly related to the success probability of a rocket launch.

A magical scene happened. After only half a minute, the remote sensing equipment had entered the system interface and started up.

This surprised Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong very much. They had come into contact with such remote sensing equipment before. A cold start would take at least 20 minutes, and that was considered to be of relatively high performance. They did not expect the remote sensing equipment here to start up so quickly.

Is it not fully functional? Is it just a shell?
Hu Jiangshan should not be that stupid. They are all experts. What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true either.

At this time, Hu Jiangshan said: "Okay, I'll leave it to you, just take a look at it."

Fang Xiaoya didn't bother to talk anymore. She sat down and started operating the console, her eyes fixed on the screen, checking the various functions of the instrument.

It is not enough to just have remote sensing equipment. The key is whether its functions can meet the standards. For example, remote sensing detection distance, remote sensing detection accuracy, signal stability, etc. are all important indicators.

Hu Jiangshan knew that Fang Xiaoya was an expert in this area. He could tell clearly whether it was good or bad just by letting him operate it. Hu Jiangshan was not afraid of others seeing it, because this remote sensing equipment was of high quality and top quality. Even compared with similar remote sensing equipment at other launch sites, it was definitely above standard.

Sure enough, Fang Xiaoya's expression became more and more surprised, and then she turned to look at Hu Jiangshan: "Boss Hu, where did you get this equipment? It should be impossible to buy it, right?"

Hu Jiangshan touched his nose and replied, "We asked a professional team to customize this."

"This, the team..."

Hu Jiangshan immediately changed the subject. This matter really couldn't be discussed in depth, otherwise there would be no way to explain it, especially in front of such a professional.

After a while, Fang Xiaoya stood up and finally finished reading.

Tao Cong pulled Fang Xiaoya aside and asked, "How is it? Is it reliable?"

"Very reliable, really reliable."

"So, this launch site is fully functional, and we can send the rocket into space with confidence."

"Well, I can only say that judging from the situation here, there is indeed no problem. Is the teacher ready? We still have to ask Boss Hu."

At this time, Hu Jiangshan said to Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong: "If you have finished looking now, there is another place here, maybe you would like to go and see it."

Fang Xiaoya was stunned: "Where are we going?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Come with me, you will know when you get there."

Fang Xiaoya, Tao Cong and others were very curious. They followed Hu Jiangshan out of the main control room, and then passed through a door and came to a long corridor.

This corridor is really long, at least a hundred meters.

Tao Cong whispered to Fang Xiaoya: "Boss Hu won't take us to some weird place, right?"

Fang Xiaoya was stunned: "What other strange place could it be? Could it be possible that it could trick us?"

"That's possible. Haven't you heard that he used to have a lot of fun?"

"Oh, that's enough, Director Tao has a very rich imagination."

Tao Cong laughed and said, "Mr. Fang, I found a problem.

"what is the problem?"

"You trust Boss Hu quite a bit."

Fang Xiaoya was speechless for a moment and ignored Tao Cong.

Tao Cong is sometimes quite eccentric and always makes some ridiculous jokes.

But strangely enough, Fang Xiaoya's attitude towards Hu Jiangshan is indeed somewhat special. Although she occasionally suspects that Hu Jiangshan has other intentions or is hiding something, she is at least not sure that he will not harm others.

Soon, under the leadership of Hu Jiangshan, everyone passed through the corridor, opened another door and walked in.

When everyone saw the scene inside clearly, they were stunned.

It turned out that they had walked out of the command center building and came to another place, which was the rocket assembly and maintenance plant.

Since this is a place where rockets are maintained, it must be quite large.

At this time, they were in the corridor of the upper part of the factory, suspended in mid-air.

Looking down, it was at least forty or fifty meters.

Looking up further, there are about twenty or thirty meters.

In other words, this warehouse must be at least seventy or eighty meters high, even higher than the rocket launch pad.

However, since it is a space launch site, it is normal to have such a large factory building. But everyone was immediately stunned, because this factory building was not empty, and there was actually a rocket standing on the central carrier rack.

Judging from the size of the rocket, it was about 20 to 30 meters long and should only have one stage with a flat top, indicating that it did not have any payload.

But this rocket is still a full-sized medium rocket.

Tao Cong couldn't help asking, "Boss Hu, whose rocket is this? Are you going to launch the rocket?"

Hu Jiangshan said: "This rocket is an experimental rocket we made to test the entire launch system."

"We are going to conduct a live launch?"

"Yes, it will only be considered a success if this rocket is successfully launched."

Fang Xiaoya and Tao Cong looked at each other, and the others also looked at each other with incredible and unbelievable expressions.

Fang Xiaoya asked: "Boss Hu, does that mean we are now ready for launch?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Yes, the rocket is now in place and is being debugged. After the debugging is completed, we can do the launch test."

Unexpectedly, the space launch site on Tenglong Island has not only been basically completed, but also has the mechanical conditions for launch.

This was far beyond the expectations of everyone at Starry Glory. They had originally thought that it would take at least a month or two before the rocket could be actually launched.

Hu Jiangshan added: "I will pick an auspicious day to test-fire the rocket. You are all welcome to come and watch the launch. I believe that by then you, Starry Sky Glory, will have a final assessment of this launch site."

Tao Cong and others were delighted: "That's great, Boss Hu. If the rocket launch can really be successful, then we won't have anything to worry about."

At this time, the investigation of Starry Sky Glory was over. Three or four hours had passed in a flash and it was already afternoon.

After everyone finished their work, they began to feel hungry.

Hu Jiangshan took them to the Laohuya Sea View Restaurant.

The Tiger Cliff Seaview Restaurant is now very mature, with all service provided by robots.

Chef robots, cleaning robots, food delivery robots...

They are all very efficient.

Fang Xiaoya, Tao Cong and others were stunned. Since arriving at Tenglong Island, there have been surprises everywhere.

What Hu Jiangshan has done on this island may be beyond imagination.

Soon, they were all immersed in the beautiful scenery of Tenglong Bay.

The next day, Hu Jiangshan received another call from Peng Xiaojun.

Peng Xiaojun didn't say anything and directly asked Hu Jiangshan a question.

When will the rocket launch experiment be conducted?
Hu Jiangshan had nothing to hide, so he just set a date.

That is five days later, which happens to be the weekend.

Peng Xiaojun was immediately overjoyed and said, "Boss Hu, when the time comes I will lead a team to Hong Kong Island. Will you welcome me?"

"Welcome, of course you are welcome!"
