The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 267: Can't Slow Down
Guo Mo's face was full of joy, and he said, "As long as you think it's okay, I'll go back and reply to the Ministry of Culture and Education."

He did not ask Li Mu to participate in the teaching work. For others, this was a good opportunity, but with Li Mu's current status and reputation, it was not necessary at all.

If you ask around now, at least seven or eight out of ten people in the country know Li Mu. If you narrow the scope to the school, then basically everyone knows him.

Even in the yellow mud classroom in the mountains, the teacher would speak in dialect and teach the children word by word about the young scientist leader of the New Xia Kingdom.

"By the way, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Guo Mo shook his head, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and then asked.

Li Mu then said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to try to develop a general-purpose helicopter."

"Oh, a helicopter." Guo Mo took a sip of tea and responded indifferently. Before he swallowed it, he suddenly realized what was going on and almost spit out the tea.

He couldn't believe it and asked, "Helicopter?"

"Yes, I named it Xuanniao-1 helicopter. This is the plan I wrote. Please take a look at it." Li Mu took out a thick stack of manuscript paper from the briefcase at hand.

After seeing the manuscript, Guo Mo was finally sure that Li Mu was not joking with him. He took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and clenched the plan for the Xuanniao-1 helicopter with both hands.

After quickly reading it, he could no longer contain his excitement. He immediately turned around and called Tang Yanjie, the dean of the Aviation College.

The Aviation Institute is a research institute established by the Xia Kingdom after the big brother withdrew its experts. Its purpose is to concentrate the scattered scientific research forces, form a fist, overcome technical difficulties, and promote the development of scientific research in the national aviation industry.

It has ten institutes under its jurisdiction:
The First Academy of Aerospace Engineering - Aircraft Design Institute, which is mainly responsible for the design of fighter jets and other fighter aircraft;
The Second Academy of Aerospace Engineering - Aero Engine Design Institute, focusing on engine design and research;
The Third Academy of Aerospace Engineering - Aircraft Accessories and Ground Equipment Design Institute...

……

These research institutes have gathered the top talents in Xia's aviation industry.

Therefore, Tang Yanjie was confused when he received Guo Mo's call. When did the Chinese Academy of Sciences start to conduct helicopter research?

I haven't received any message at all!

And why does the Chinese Academy of Sciences do this?

The best scientific research forces are concentrated in their Academy of Aeronautics!

But Guo Mo's last words made Tang Yanjie immediately take it seriously: "This is Li Mu's idea. I hope you can send someone to take a look."

He is a talented young scholar who won the only first prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award at the age of 23. His research fields are extremely broad, covering semiconductors, computers, agronomy, steel metallurgy and many other fields.

The two words "Li Mu" are now a wake-up call in the academic circles of Xia State.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yanjie immediately summoned experts and rushed to the Chinese Academy of Sciences without stopping.

……

Before long, several cars stopped at the gate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and several hurried figures walked out of them.

Just as the guards were about to check, the leader, Tang Yanjie, with a resolute face, directly took out his ID.

After seeing the name written on it, the guard immediately stood at attention and saluted, then let the person in.

……

Inside the office.

Ren Weizhi arrived first: "President Guo, where is the plan? Let us take a look."

Li Mu, who was drinking tea with Guo Mo, heard the powerful voice and immediately looked up, and saw a spirited, square-faced man walking in.

The man was probably in his fifties, walked with a breeze, and was very serious, with all the habits of a soldier. My eyes were fixed on him from the moment I came in.

"Here." Guo Mo stood up upon hearing the voice and handed the plan in his hand to several experts brought by Tang Yanjie.

Afterwards, no one spoke, waiting quietly for the answer.

After a long while, the experts and professors who had read the plan page by page finally looked up. From their excitement, it was not difficult to guess the answer: "Dean, although there are still some technical difficulties, there is absolutely no problem in the design!"

"If we study this plan, within five years, our Xia country will be able to have a general-purpose helicopter designed and developed by ourselves!"

"Moreover, this Xuanniao-1 helicopter far exceeds all other helicopters in the world in terms of various data and performance. Once it is developed, our national defense will usher in a significant improvement!"

Upon hearing this result, Tang Yanjie immediately burst into laughter, stepped forward and shook Li Mu's hand tightly, saying: "As expected of someone who can win the first prize of the National Highest Science and Technology Progress Award, your reputation is well-deserved."

As a soldier, no one knows better than him the advantages that weapons and equipment bring in war.

If this helicopter can be successful, it will undoubtedly give Xia Kingdom more confidence to challenge the complex international situation.

"Actually, there is still a problem. As for the engine, I don't have a clear idea at the moment. Our current engine level is totally insufficient to support my design." Li Mu explained quickly.

He only gave a skeleton of Xuanniao-1, and there are many potential problems.

Tang Yanjie waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I know scientific research is not such a simple matter. Just go for it boldly. I will fully support you!"

"Wait, President Tang, from what you said, you don't want to transfer Li Mu to the Aviation Institute?" Guo Mo interrupted quickly.

If he doesn't speak up, judging from Tang Yanjie's attitude, he will probably grab Li Mu's shoulders and take him directly to the Aviation Academy.

Tang Yanjie was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "Why not? This is the first helicopter independently designed and developed by our country. How important is it!"

"That's probably not as important as the research Li Mu is doing now." Guo Mo shook his head. Seeing that he was still a little puzzled, he said:

"All scientific research in our country is now supported by powerful computers, all thanks to him, and he is now developing a newer generation of computers."

His words were to the point.

Even with Tang Yanjie's level, it is not easy to understand these things. He must go through layers of approval.

After hearing this, the latter quickly understood and looked at Li Mu as if he had discovered a rare treasure. He said, "I never thought that the progress of computers in our country is also due to your contribution."

"Since you have a lot of research to do, I won't force you."

"But this Xuanniao-1 helicopter plan is your design. Even if we take it, there will probably be problems in many places. How about you take more time to give us guidance?"

"I wouldn't dare say I can provide guidance. I still have a lot to learn in the aviation industry. I hope I can have a good exchange and study with the seniors at the Aviation Academy." Li Mu nodded and agreed without even thinking.

He took out this plan and made the preparations.

Seeing that he agreed so straightforwardly, Tang Yanjie's face became even happier, and he said, "Okay, then I'll go back first and give this plan to the people in the hospital to review thoroughly." "Three days, no, two days later, I'll send someone to pick you up."

After saying this, he looked at Li Mu reluctantly again before leaving with his people. It can be said that he came and left in a hurry.

But both Li Mu and Guo Mo knew that his visit would definitely cause some big stir at the Aviation Academy.

The individual combat capability of the Xia Kingdom is absolutely unique in the world now. It is no exaggeration to say that it once defeated the coalition forces of multiple countries with the strength of one country alone.

But why do the M Emperor and Big Brother still look down on them? It is because they really cannot compare in terms of weapons and equipment.

"If we can make up for this shortcoming, let's see if those two overlords dare to speak to us loudly!" Tang Yanjie thought secretly while sitting in the car.

Soon, his strong psychological quality calmed him down from his excitement.

He recalled the information about Li Mu. His achievements could be said to be extremely dazzling.

Especially Guo Mo's words. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he could tell that he was implying that the Type 01 computer, Type 02 computer, and even the supercomputer were all developed by Li Mu.

Tang Yanjie knows very well the importance of computers.

Since having powerful computers, the estimated time to success for all their research projects at the Academy of Aeronautics has been shortened by at least one year.

This is just their Aviation Academy. There are so many research institutes and projects across the country.
This point alone was enough to make him give up the idea of ​​recruiting Li Mu into the Aviation Academy.

……

On the other side, after Tang Yanjie left, Li Mu handed the plan he had written earlier on the development of semiconductor home appliances to Guo Mo, and then stood up to say goodbye.

After handing over the plan for the Xuanniao-1 helicopter to Tang Yanjie, he estimated that he would not be able to wait for two days, as the other party's decisive character would send someone to his door.

The reason is very simple. The skeleton he provided is actually very complete.

As long as people from the Academy of Aeronautics read it, they can immediately build a specific model in their minds.

Then I found out that he didn’t explain many key technologies clearly, and I definitely couldn’t wait and came to him directly.

Although today is his rest time, he can't rest any longer.

There are many, many researchers like him who are fighting on the front line of scientific research for the rise of the motherland, burning themselves like candles every day.

Li Mu can't slow down!
……

With the support of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the pilot project of software engineering professional education by the Ministry of Culture and Education was quickly launched.

Beijing Institute of Technology, Peking University, China Europe International Business School, and nine technical colleges have gradually started preliminary enrollment work, selecting and training students who are willing to study computer technology among the first and second year students.

Of course, this restriction is not absolute. As long as the students are willing and meet the academic requirements, they can also change their majors.

As soon as the news came out, the whole country paid attention!

The thresholds of the teaching departments of each pilot school were trampled down by students.

For example, at Beijing Institute of Technology, Professor Wang received hundreds of applications for changing majors early in the morning, and all of them wanted to study software engineering.

Looking at the mountain of applications, he sighed helplessly, stood up and prepared to go find Qian Shuyan to discuss how to recruit students.

The above requirement is to recruit 300 to 500 people, which sounds like a lot, but there are 12 schools with one point each, and each school can only recruit 41 people at most. Although they have one more person, there are only 42 places.

A selection rate of more than ten to one is indeed a bit exaggerated, and these are all top talents who have passed the college entrance examination where thousands of people compete to get in!
……

Semiconductor Research Institute.

In Wu Youhao's office, Li Mu was drinking tea and chatting with two directors. They were talking about the software engineering professional education pilot project that had recently attracted widespread attention from all walks of life across the country.

Wang Shoujue smiled and said, "If this software project is done well, Li Mu, you will have expanded a new research field, the field of education!"

"You're joking. I'm just a hands-off boss. The compilation of the textbooks was completed with the help of other people. How dare I take credit for it?" Li Mu took a sip of tea, smiled and shook his head.

Within two days, the Ministry of Culture and Education had made the educational pilot work in full swing, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

Now many experts and professors in the institute take turns to take time out from their research to give lectures at schools every year, and young researchers are no exception.

Wu Youxiang looked at Li Mu's humble appearance and said with a smile, "You".

Both of them knew that he was modest, so they didn't say much and continued to talk about research.

The fact that the three of them can drink tea here so leisurely shows that the research in the institute is currently going relatively smoothly.

Wang Shoujue smiled and said:
"You know what, Yang Tianxing, Zhou Xiling and Su Dongzhuang are really talented and can learn things quickly. I think it will be no problem to leave the network team to them."

"We need to work on the network switch next. I think we can let them try it out. Maybe they can give us some surprises."

"Of course, I can be lazy, but you can't. You have to keep an eye on them and not let them go astray."

His tone was full of appreciation for Yang Tianxing and the other two.

"Of course, but I still want to see what they think first. They can't just follow what I say." Li Mu nodded slightly.

These three big guys of later generations were indeed extremely talented. They quickly adapted to the work of the network group and could even debate with him occasionally like "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."

He thought this was a good thing. When confirming the general direction, a research team should work together and only one person's voice was allowed.

However, during the research process, different opinions are needed to move the entire project forward.

……

The three of them just took a short break at noon, and after drinking tea, they quickly returned to their respective work stations and started their research work.

Although the network switch development task has been handed over to the network group, the other three project teams of the second-generation supercomputer still have many problems that need to be solved by Li Mu.

On the memory side, several technical difficulties of dynamic memory have been basically solved, and the only thing left is the manufacturing problem.

The number of memories required by the second-generation supercomputer is in the tens of thousands, which cannot be entirely achieved by researchers manually. A production line needs to be set up to solve the problem.
