The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 175 No matter how powerful your fists and feet are, they are still just a shot away
“It also includes guidance and control systems.”

"As the "eyes and ears" and "brain" of the missile, the guidance system is responsible for obtaining information about the target being attacked, analyzing and processing the information according to the program, and providing guidance and direction for the missile.

"The control system is like the 'nerves' and 'limbs' of the missile, executing the guidance instructions generated by the 'brain' and controlling the flight attitude and trajectory of the missile."

……

He explained the plan of the automated guidance system in detail.

Although the purpose is to make surface-to-air missiles, this automated guidance system must be applied to all missiles first.

After he finished speaking, some people started asking questions:
"The inertial measurement device you just proposed is to reduce measurement errors, perform real-time coordinate transformation, overcome carcass errors, and improve system reliability and stability. How do you achieve this specifically?"

Li Mu explained: "Errors can be solved by using redundancy technology, using two or more identical components or systems to correctly and coordinately complete the same task."

"As for the coordinate transformation, since the inertial measurement device is directly installed on the missile body, we need a specially designed high-speed and large-capacity computer to perform real-time coordinate changes on the motion parameters."

……

The explanation lasted for two full hours before the professors and experts stopped.

Immediately, Gu Zheng took the lead in applauding, and thunderous applause broke out in the conference room.

He praised her generously: "It's incredible, it's incredible, at such a young age, you can lead a team to do research, and you can do it so easily."

Only after seeing it with my own eyes can I know that it is worthy of its reputation.

Now he understood why so many schools were eager to accept Li Mu as a student.

"Thank you for your praise, leader. Let me lead the research team this time. I am confident that I can do this well." Li Mu said with a smile.

"Of course..." Gu Zheng said halfway, holding back the word "can", looking at Li Mu with a half-smile, and said: "You are lying to me, an old man!"

"The leader has limited your research time. Don't say I can't agree to it. Even if I agree, it will be useless."

"You should just stay in the leadership position. As for the leader of the research team, I will discuss it with Director Wang and the others. Of course, the first credit will definitely be yours! There is no need to argue about this!"

"Then you can extend my research time by one hour!" Li Mu tried to bargain.

Gu Zheng immediately glared and said, "You kid, you thought you were buying vegetables at the market, there's no room for negotiation."

After saying that, he stopped paying attention to Li Mu and turned to discuss the matter of the leader of the research team with Wang Shoujue and others.

Li Mu said unwillingly: "Half an hour is fine!"

Everyone ignored it, as if they didn't hear it.

……

After the meeting, the joint automated guidance system development team of the Semiconductor Research Institute, the Computing Technology Research Institute and the Beijing Institute of Technology was formally established.

Since the project was just starting out, there were naturally many problems. Li Mu devoted himself to study and research. He started working as soon as he opened his eyes every day and was very busy.

On the seventh day, his leader ordered him to rest.

He got up at 5 o'clock, preparing to go to the Semiconductor Research Institute to do some more research while Guan Jianmin was still here.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw Guan Jianmin yawning outside:

"Morning."

And say hello to him.

"Is it really that necessary for you to sacrifice even your own sleeping time?" Li Mu was speechless.

Guan Jianmin glanced at him and said, "If you hadn't been trying to find loopholes every day, I really wouldn't have done that."

"Okay, now that I've been discovered, let's go back in and sleep for a while."

"It's no use glaring at me."

Li Mu looked at Guan Jianmin angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

He said, "Forget it. I can't sleep, so I'm going to exercise."

After saying that, he walked out of the dormitory.

Guan Jianmin hurried to catch up.

When we arrived at the playground, it was still early and we could only vaguely see a few people in the school.

Li Mu took up his stance in an open space, his boxing skills flowing smoothly and full of power.

After practicing boxing, it's 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10-kilometer long-distance run.

Guan Jianmin, who was standing next to him, was secretly amazed.

Although he had heard that Li Mu exercised every day, except for special circumstances, he basically waited for him to come back in the dormitory and had never seen it in person.

So he realized now that Li Mu, who was considered "frail and sickly" by his superiors, seemed to have a physique that was a little unreasonable.

When Li Mu finished his exercise and walked over to him while wiping the sweat off his face with the towel around his neck, Guan Jianmin couldn't help but ask curiously:

"I think your physique is not inferior to Brother Zhao's, are you really weak and sickly?"

Li Mu said firmly: "Of course not, it was all a misunderstanding before. Go and explain it to me now, and ask the higher-ups to lift the restrictions on me."

"Uh, forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Guan Jianmin decisively threw away his curiosity and said, "If I go and explain it to you, I'm afraid the higher-ups won't think you're not sick, but will think I'm on your side."

"It's boring." Li Mu twitched his lips, but he knew in his heart that it was useless to look for Guan Jianmin.

He couldn't help but say, "It would be great if I could run into a few enemy spies. If they pounce on me, I can knock them down with just a few punches and kicks. Then the higher-ups will know that I'm not weak or sickly at all."

Hearing this, Guan Jianmin's eyes showed a strange look, and said:

"I think you'd better not do that. If there really are enemy spies, it means you are likely to have been exposed."

"Don't think that just because I praise you a few words, your punches and kicks are really powerful."

"No matter how powerful your fists and feet are, it's still just a shot. It's hard for you to even get close."

He imagined Li Mu getting ready to fight the enemy spy, and then being shot down. He couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

"Of course I know. I have a gun with me too. If the other side uses a gun, I guarantee that I can draw my gun faster than him." Li Mu rolled his eyes.

Do you really think he is stupid? He has a gun but doesn't need to use martial arts.

Guan Jianmin said: "I do believe this. Brother Zhao told me that your marksmanship is quite good."

"But I still hope you don't need it. With your identity, if you are targeted by the transport captain, I'm afraid you will be assassinated endlessly."

"When the time comes, it will be difficult for you to stay in school and study freely."

He is not exaggerating.

If the transport captain knew that a large number of Xia Country's scientific and technological achievements in recent times came from one person, he would definitely be eager to get rid of him as soon as possible.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I rarely get a break today, so I'm going to go out and play." Li Mu waved his hand and said, since he couldn't do the research, he might as well take a serious rest.

……

After half an hour.

Li Mu and Guan Jianmin returned to the compound together.

Just after he parked his bike, he heard Uncle Zhong calling him, "Xiao Li, come on, come and have some breakfast."

"Hey, Uncle Zhong, your breakfast is quite sumptuous!" Li Mu walked forward, greeted Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhong's son and daughter-in-law, and then said in surprise.

Breakfast was porridge made from whole grains and two eggs, which seemed common in later generations, but can be considered quite luxurious now.

"It's just so-so, just so-so." Uncle Zhong smiled and waved his hand, then explained: "Dajun was transferred from his original factory to the newly established program-controlled digital switch factory."

"The benefits there are very good. Although the salary has not increased, the food is very good. Not only is there a lot of money, but you can also bring some back." "And Dajun's wife also joined the Rubik's Cube Factory. She is the one you asked me to do before. The street office brought someone to inquire about it before, but it was a pity that you were not there."

"They both work in the factory, and with me, life at home has become much better!"

Without Li Mu's detailed questions, Uncle Zhong told him everything without hesitation, looking very happy and satisfied.

In this era, simply having enough food to eat is their biggest wish.

"Come on, let's eat together." Uncle Zhong said as he invited Li Mu and Guan Jianmin to sit down.

Li Mu quickly refused: "No, no, we have already eaten in the school cafeteria."

"Eat a little more. Do you think it's unpalatable?" Uncle Zhong said with his eyes wide open.

He knew that the food at the Li family was much better than theirs, but this bite of food was a token of his love.

Li Mu smiled and said, "You misunderstood. I can't eat anymore. If I eat this time, I will lose money."

"I have to save it and eat it on an empty stomach next time."

These words made Guan Jianmin who was standing behind him couldn't help laughing.

But Uncle Zhong thought it made sense and nodded, "Yes, what you said makes sense. Next time, I'll prepare more so you can eat enough!"

While chatting and laughing, Li Mu and Guan Jianmin walked into the courtyard.

Before he even reached the door of his house, he heard his aunt scolding his two younger sisters: "You are so old, but you still wet the bed. Aren't you ashamed?"

"Look at Grandpa Zhong's grandson, he's younger than you and can already cook for himself."

"Don't think that you don't have to learn anything just because you have a brother who pampers you. If you still wet the bed when you grow up, do you think he will still like you?"

……

Li Lan and Li Yu stood aside awkwardly, listening to Wang Juanhong's nagging. When they heard her say that her brother didn't like them, they pouted and were about to cry.

At this moment, Li Mu approached and said with a smile: "Aunt, it's okay, they are still young, and they won't wet the bed in a few years."

"Brother~" Hearing his voice, Li Lan and Li Yu cheered in surprise, and the next moment they threw themselves into his arms like the wind.

……

Spent a pleasant morning at home.

After lunch, looking at Guan Jianmin who was shamelessly eating lunch and planning to eat dinner, Li Mu knew that he couldn't get rid of this guy.

After saying goodbye to the two little ones who were reluctant to leave, he prepared to go to Beijing Institute of Technology to check on Wang Ya's situation.

"Is it okay to go see Wang Ya?" Li Mu asked.

Guan Jianmin was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that maybe he had changed his personality, but of course he would not refuse, and said, "Of course."

Then, the two went to Beijing Institute of Technology.

……

After arriving at the school and greeting the security guard, Li Mu went straight to the No. 421 laboratory.

Looking outside, Wang Ya was indeed inside, still concentrating on doing experiments.

Seeing this scene, he felt a little reluctant to disturb them.

At this moment, Wang Ya seemed to sense something and raised her head.

When she saw Li Mu, her eyes lit up slightly.

"There's hope." Seeing the expressions of the two people, Guan Jianmin consciously stepped back. Finally, he finally saw the dawn of hope.

As long as the two of them can make progress, he won't have to keep an eye on Li Mu every day. Who likes to squat at the door in the middle of the night?

However, the next moment, their conversation made the smile on Guan Jianmin's face freeze.

Li Mu asked: "How is the research on the measuring device going today? Professor Zhuang said yesterday that he had a new idea. Did he tell you?"

"Professor Zhuang stayed in the laboratory for a long time after he came back, and then he found that it didn't work." Wang Ya said truthfully.

"Fortunately, it didn't take too much time." Li Mu nodded. It was a good thing to fail so quickly.

It's better than spending a lot of time only to find out it's wrong.

"By the way, what about you? I remember that Professor Zhuang asked you to be in charge of the research on computing devices. With your previous experience in making D-bullet ballistic trajectory computers, this shouldn't be difficult, right?" Li Mu asked again.

Wang Ya thought for a moment and said, "In terms of data processing capability, with the support of the Type 01 computer, there are basically no major problems. Reliability needs to be further improved..."

……

Guan Jianmin, who was standing by, watched the two of them chatting animatedly. Their shoulders moved closer to each other, and he looked awkward.

If we talk about the relationship, it seems to be pretty good indeed.

But why is the direction of development so different from what he expected?

Can't you chat about something romantic? Why do you have to talk about research?
"Forget it, forget it. It's better than no progress at all." After hesitating for a long time, Guan Jianmin still did not step forward to interrupt, allowing the two to continue chatting.

……

As they chatted, Li Mu suddenly asked Wang Ya, "Have you not rested for many days?"

"Professor Zhuang came back quite late yesterday. Were you still in the lab at that hour?"

"You can't do this!"

"No, I..." Wang Ya was stunned for a moment, then said: "I just stay a little longer occasionally, usually not for long."

"Lying." Li Mu carefully observed the changes in Wang Ya's facial expressions, made inferences, and after thinking for a while, he said, "How about this, let's take a break today and go out for a walk together?"

Wang Ya blushed slightly and lowered her head. Then she felt something was wrong and rolled her eyes. “I’m not restricted in my research time. I can stay as long as I want.”

She was almost moved.

"That's not what I meant." Li Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

……

Despite what she said, Wang Ya still followed him around the school for a while.

On the way, I met Sun Fendou, Zhang Kai and others whom I hadn't seen for a long time, and they were invited to play basketball with me.

Since he had nothing to do, he didn't refuse and followed them to the playground.

When they arrived at the place, they first divided into three-person teams with Li Mu and Sun Fendou as captains. Because there were not enough people, Guan Jianmin also joined Sun Fendou's side.

The autumn sky is high and the air is crisp, which is perfect weather for playing ball.

Li Mu started playing very casually, turning into a score control expert and keeping the score firmly within 3 points.

At this moment, Sun Fendou suddenly seemed to have exploded with energy, dribbling the ball past Zhang Kai and Li Jian. Although he reacted, he thought about it and decided not to stop him.

He just made a 3-pointer and the score is now 6 points, which doesn't quite fit his plan for a "narrow win".

"Swish~" the basketball went into the net.

After Sun Fendou scored a goal, he turned around and said, "How was it? Did you play much better than before?"

"During this period, I have been playing basketball whenever I have free time, practicing the skills you taught me."

"I think it won't be long before I can surpass you."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Wang Ya who was sitting on the sidelines of the court.
