The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 173: Forge a powerful weapon to protect her

I spent the whole morning here with Huang Xinhua.

The objective lens principle of the distributed projection lithography machine is mainly to use multiple lenses to collect the first-order diffraction light emitted by the illumination module into the objective lens, and then shrink the circuit pattern on the mask and focus it on the wafer.

It sounds simple, but just like the Big Mushroom Formula E=mc^2, the simpler it is, the harder it is to do.

How to compensate for optical errors, how to ensure accurate projection, there are problems everywhere, and it is not possible to do it immediately just by having a plan.

All I can do is keep waiting.

Fortunately, the download of supercomputer data has just begun, so Li Mu is not in a hurry to bring it up.

If it's not finished, and a bunch of people are eagerly asking him for the supercomputer architecture, it would be easier for him to just find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

……

At noon, Huang Xinhua put down his research and saw Li Mu still sitting in front of a pile of information, thinking motionlessly. He stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying:

"No matter how important research is, we still have to eat. Let's go."

Li Mu came back to his senses, rubbed his eyebrows, then stood up and walked out of the laboratory.

……

Come to the dining hall.

While serving the dishes, Li Mu was still thinking about the solution to the objective lens system.

If supercomputing can be achieved, then the previous idea of ​​developing a surface-to-air D missile will no longer be empty talk, but a practical and feasible goal.

Just as he was lost in thought, a voice sounded behind him: "Li Mu, long time no see!"

Turning around, I saw Gu Zheng, the leader of the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building, whom I had met at the National Academic Exchange Conference before, and Guo Mo, Wang Shoujue and others following beside him.

"Hello, leader. It's been a long time since we last met." Li Mu said with a smile.

The other party is in charge of the electronics industry, and he is now researching aerospace, so we will inevitably have to deal with each other in the future.

Especially the development of ground-to-air D ballistics would undoubtedly be much easier with the full cooperation of the Fourth Machine Ministry.

"I heard that you went to USTC to study physics with Mr. Qian Wushi. Are you going to enter the field of aerospace soon?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.

In the past, I only watched Leader Qiu of the First Ministry of Machine Building eat meat. It would be a lie to say that I was not envious.

It takes a lot of effort to build good relationships with such a prolific scientific researcher.

Hearing this, Li Mu sighed and said, "You think too highly of me. I have just started learning and have not even entered the door of physics."

"The teacher assigned me a project a few days ago. I only have a clue about it now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it by then."

His words made Gu Zheng, Guo Mo and others curious, and they all asked, "What kind of topic is it that can stump you?"

"There is no restriction on the topic. I chose the simplest one: the development of an automated guidance system for ground-to-air D missiles." Li Mu explained.

Compared with other topics, this one is quite simple.

But after he finished speaking, Gu Zheng, Guo Mo and others couldn't help but show amusement on their faces.

Surface-to-air D bomb, simple?
Xia's ground-to-ground missile has only been out for less than a year, and there is not even a shadow of the ground-to-air missile yet. If this is easy, there would be few things more difficult than this.

Even the development of an automated guidance system is not easy.

Gu Zheng sighed, "Your solution is the simplest one, but it is a big problem that many researchers in our Xia country have not yet solved!"

"If you can achieve this, I will definitely give you a great credit."

"Thank you for the praise, leader. The research and development team hasn't been established yet. Even if it succeeds, it won't be the credit of me alone." Li Mu said hurriedly.

Hearing what he said, Gu Zheng smiled and nodded at Li Mu, sighing: "You really don't want to take credit, you are too modest!"

……

Afterwards, everyone ate and chatted.

Later, Li Mu saw Professor Zhuang and Wang Ya coming over, but Gu Zheng kept talking to him and he had no time to go over and say hello.

After dinner, a group of people went to the laboratory.

As he walked over, Li Mu finally had time to get close to Wang Ya.

Seeing her face tense and her eyes absent-minded, he whispered, "Don't worry, it will work."

Hearing the voice, Wang Ya raised her head and looked into his eyes full of concern.

She nodded and said, "Yeah."

……

After the two of them exchanged a few words, everyone arrived at the door of Laboratory 312.

Professors Gu Zheng, Guo Mo, Zhang, as well as professors Wu Youxiang and Wang Shoujue from the Institute of Semiconductor have all joined the team.

The laboratory, which was not spacious to begin with, suddenly became a bit crowded.

Li Mu originally wanted to stay at the back, but was forced to go to the front by Gu Zheng's words.

He said, "I heard that you also made a significant contribution to the testing of this D-bullet trajectory computer?"

"It's just a tiny inspiration. Other than that I haven't been of any help at all. When I think about it, I feel a little unworthy of the title of mentor." Li Mu shook his head.

Although he gave Wang Ya some help, the effect was actually quite limited.

At least he didn't think that Professor Zhuang and his team could produce results with just a few lines of code.

As he is now working on the surface-to-air D bomb, he has a deep understanding of the hardships and difficulties involved.

Professor Zhuang at the side smiled and said, "You can't say that. If it weren't for your J language, this D-bullet trajectory calculation system would not have been a research project."

Seeing the two of them being modest, Gu Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, both of you have made contributions, don't worry."

"The final test is about to begin. Success or failure depends on this moment."

After hearing his words, everyone quieted down.

The final test was simple.

Although the Type 01 computer has powerful computing power, it is unable to provide the simulation conditions required for the test, such as high-speed rotation simulation, laser information field simulation, and missile flight stagnation pressure simulation.

So the way to test is to just fire one shot!
……

The experiment was carried out in an orderly manner.

Time passed slowly, the D missile was launched, data was transmitted, and intensive calculations began immediately.

One hour... Two hours...

Looking at the numbers jumping on the computer screen, Li Mu, who had been standing there for a long time, finally couldn't help but look back in the direction of Wang Ya.

She pursed her red lips tightly, and her face was a little pale due to excessive tension.

It seemed that his comfort had no effect.

The D-bullet trajectory computer carried too many emotions for her, and it was far from being easy to relax with just a few words.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Mu moved back quietly and stood next to Wang Ya.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was on calculations at the moment and no one noticed his strange behavior.

But unfortunately, Wang Ya did the same thing and did not notice that there was suddenly someone around her.

Looking at her slightly trembling shoulders, Li Mu swallowed back the many words of comfort that he had prepared in his mind for a long time.

After thinking for a while, he stretched out his hand and held Wang Ya's sweaty little hand.

Sensing something was wrong, Wang Ya subconsciously pulled her hand away, but was held even tighter.

She turned her head and stared at Li Mu in a daze, distracted for a moment.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just trying to comfort you as a friend!" From the moment Li Mu held Wang Ya's hand, he looked straight ahead, trying to stay calm.

Just when he was about to lose his defense due to Wang Ya's stare, a shout suddenly came from the front:
"Report to the leaders, professor!"

"The error between the calculated data and the actual data is less than 50 meters!"

"We...succeeded!"

When the word "success" was uttered, huge cheers broke out in the laboratory.

The researchers from the Semiconductor Research Institute gathered outside the laboratory and gave their warmest applause for their success. From this moment on, Xia Guo's D-bullet trajectory computer achieved a breakthrough from scratch.

Professor Zhuang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, excitedly shook hands with Wang Shoujue and Wu Youxiang, and thanked them for the convenience they provided.

"Well done!" Gu Zheng patted Professor Zhuang's shoulder heavily, his eyes full of approval.

Guo Mo looked at Professor Zhuang and said with emotion: "From today on, our D-bullet trajectory calculation science has truly begun!"

The two of them praised Professor Zhuang, and even praised Wang Shoujue and Wu Youxiang who provided help.

After all, without the Type 01 computer, it would be impossible to calculate the ballistic trajectory of the D bullet.

But in the end, they always felt like they had forgotten someone.

"Where is Li Mu?" Gu Zheng looked around in confusion. Wasn't he by his side just now?
At this moment, he suddenly saw Li Mu hiding behind.

Next to him, there was a very beautiful girl who was crying bitterly.

Seeing this, Gu Zheng was about to step forward and ask.

Guo Mo beside him suddenly pulled his arm and said, "Don't disturb them. Let's just pretend we didn't see it."

He looked at Guo Mo in confusion, and then discovered that Wang Shoujue and others who were with Guo Mo were actually secretly paying attention to the two people over there.

Seeing this, Gu Zheng suddenly realized, looked at everyone, and then gave the same auntie smile.

……

The cheers lasted for a long time, and Wang Ya cried for a long time, as if she wanted to let out all the tears she had been holding back over the years.

Li Mu didn't say anything, but just stayed by her side silently.

It took a long time for Wang Ya to calm down.

Then she realized that Li Mu saw her crying, so she quickly turned away and wiped the tears from her face.

"I can really congratulate you this time." Li Mu said with a smile.

He was sincerely happy that Wang Ya was able to make a D-bullet trajectory computer.

Now, she can finally untie the knot in her heart.

"Thank you." After wiping the tears from her face, Wang Ya turned her head and thanked him in a low voice.

Li Mu smiled and was about to say a few more words to comfort her when Guo Mo's voice suddenly rang out from behind him: "Li Mu, the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building and the Chinese Academy of Sciences have arranged for reporters to interview Professor Zhuang and his team."

"The success of the D-bullet trajectory computer is something that should make the people of the whole country happy."

"Oh, do I have to go too? No need." Li Mu was stunned.

Given his contributions, he felt a little embarrassed even to stand here, let alone be interviewed.

Guo Mo smiled and said, "You don't have to go, but Wang Ya has to go."

"Is that so? Why don't you just ask Wang Ya? Why are you asking me?" Li Mu was even more confused.

Guo Mo suppressed his laughter and said, "Then you should let go of Wang Ya's hand first!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the laboratory burst into laughter.

Li Mu lowered his head and realized that he had been holding Wang Ya's hand and had not let go at all.

Wang Ya's face was so red that blood seemed to be dripping out.

……

Beijing Institute of Technology.

After a long time, Li Mu returned here again.

In front of the 421 laboratory, four or five reporters were interviewing Professor Zhuang and every member of the research team behind him.

The D-bullet ballistic trajectory calculation system is a breakthrough achievement in China, but it has already appeared in foreign countries a long time ago, so there is no need to worry about being targeted by enemy spies.

After Wang Ya's emotions stabilized, she answered these questions fluently.

Li Mu had come to check on her out of concern, but when he saw that nothing serious was happening to her, he didn't plan to stay long and turned around to leave.

"There is still a lot more to learn and study," he thought to himself.

At this moment, after talking with Guo Mo, Gu Zheng and Qian Shuyan for a long time, he suddenly walked over.

Qian Shuyan said with a smile, "Didn't you say before that you should concentrate on study and research?"

"Dean, I'm just trying to comfort Wang Ya from a friend's perspective." Li Mu said awkwardly.

He knew this matter wouldn't be so easy to get through.

"Hey, I was talking about your request for leave. How did you think of this?" Qian Shuyan laughed, "Are you trying to cover up the truth?"

Guo Mo and Gu Zheng behind him both laughed out loud when they heard this.

Qian Shuyan felt that the time was ripe, so he simply pointed out everything:

"Look, you clearly don't dislike it, so why don't you give it a try?"

"Wang Ya is a good girl, you have to cherish her."

"While we are still young and not so busy with study and research, we still have time and energy. Let's talk about it now, so as not to regret it later."

"Dean, I didn't think that much." Li Mu sighed.

Guo Mo, who was standing next to him, interrupted and said, "You should think about it. Not only have your superiors asked about your personal problems several times, but your leaders have also asked about them many times."

"They won't feel at ease until the problem is solved."

"If you think it's suitable, you might as well look around first."

……

After the interview, Beijing Institute of Technology arranged a celebration banquet, which was held in the cafeteria.

Li Mu also joined in, but after only two bites, he stood up and left, saying he had something else to do.

On the campus corridor.

While thinking about what Qian Shuyan and the others had just said, he walked towards the school gate.

At this moment, a voice sounded behind him:
"Li Mu."

Turning around, it was Wang Ya who caught up with me, panting.

He smiled and said, "Look at your physical condition. You are out of breath after running such a short distance. This research was successful. You need to rest well and recover."

"If you keep going like this, I'm going to complain to my aunt."

Wang Ya glanced at him angrily and said:
"You're not a child, why are you complaining?"

"Besides, the next step is the development of an automated guidance system. I have already promised Professor Zhuang that I will participate."

"You want to participate too?" Li Mu was surprised. "But you, your wish has already come true, hasn't it?"

"Now that I've accomplished it, do I have to leave?" Wang Ya looked at him strangely.

Li Mu said:
"But I remember Shao Yanan said you used to like dancing."

"Since your wish to develop a D-bullet trajectory computer for your father has been fulfilled."

"Then why don't you continue dancing? With your efforts, it shouldn't be difficult to make up for the time you've lost over the years."

"Besides, dancing is much easier than doing scientific research."

Hearing him say this, Wang Ya was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Liking dancing is a thing of the past. Now I prefer scientific research."

"The motherland never lacks a dancer to dance for her."

"Forging a powerful weapon to protect her is what I want to do more now."

"You're very conscious!" Li Mu couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Facing his praise, Wang Ya's face, which had just been serious, turned slightly red, as if she remembered something, and suddenly asked:

"By the way, during the interview just now, I saw you and the dean chatting happily over there."

"Can you tell me what you are talking about?"
