The entire group quickly arrived at the Space Shuttle Assembly Center.

The factory located in the center of the assembly center is the birthplace of the auspicious and the cradle of a series of spacecraft.

At this moment, in this huge factory, a long strip of metal hull is lying across. The reason why it is a hull is that because of its huge size, it is like a nuclear submarine, not a spacecraft sailing in outer space.

Because the narrow hull is difficult to withstand its own gravity, the entire hull is divided into three sections, which are suspended by a solid mechanical skeleton.

When I walked into the factory, the Russian delegation was like Liu Wei who entered the Grand View Garden, curiously looking around.

Grudev’s mister and the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Economics and Development are fine. The aerospace experts who followed the visiting delegation of the Ministry of Economic and Development to France, after seeing the respect of the bridge, can’t wait to grow their eyes. That thing above.

In particular, the expert of the Russian Aerospace State Group, who has been behind Gruzev, and the academician of the Russian Academy of Engineering, Kaufman Professor, can’t wait to fall to the ground.

The Russian delegation stopped at the side of this behemoth for five minutes, and Grudev said with amazement.

“Unbelievable… Is this your spaceship?”

“鹊桥,” Lu Zhou said with a smile. “If you call it a spaceship, it’s true. Sometimes, when you look at it, I think it’s more like a ship than a spacecraft.”

At this time, Kaufman, an academician standing next to Grugev, who had never spoken, finally couldn’t help but say.

“This big spaceship… how are you going to send it to space?”

When I asked this sentence, many Chinese people standing next to me suddenly became nervous.

The visit was visited, but when it comes to the technical level, everyone must be tight.

Minister Yang is preparing to go to the round to bring this topic to other directions, but seeing Lu Zhou’s reassuring eyes, he even stopped his words.

Looking at the fanatical Kaufman academician, Lu Zhou said faintly: “We fired three times, first launching the command module, then the warehouse, and finally the engine, then docking and assembling in outer space.”

Although it is only a casually sentence, after listening to it, the Russian experts are a big shock.

Spacecraft docking has always been a difficult point in space technology. The more components that need to be docked, the higher the risk of the entire launching process. At present, the more mature docking technology in the world has only broken the spacecraft into two parts and launched it. The outer space is rendezvous and docked.

However, Lu Zhou’s sentence tells him that Huaguo has now been able to split a spacecraft into three parts of the head and tail and launch it into outer space and then join together, even Minister Gruget. At this moment, the face can not help but appear a shocking expression.

“I didn’t expect your launch technology to have reached this level…” Looking at the bridge number lying on the bracket, Grudev’s face was full of complex expressions. “I can ask, it uses Electric propulsion system?”

Lu Zhou: “Electric propulsion system is the future trend. The market in outer space does not require a lot of thrust. The advantage of the chemistry rocket… is close to the edge of the gravity well.”

Grudev took a look at the side of the Kaufman academician standing next to him and exchanged the shock of a moment.

Minister Yang of the Ministry of Commerce gently coughed and smiled friendlyly, laughing and talking.

“The visit of the Space Shuttle Assembly Center is here. There are many excellent companies in our aerospace industrial park looking forward to working with you.”

“It is also true that the time spent in Star Technology has been a long time,” Grugev laughed and continued. “That would ask Minister Yang to take us to visit and other outstanding companies in your country.”

On the way down, Grugev appeared to have some lack of interest, and the experts from Russia who followed him, his eyes became critical.

Although there are many excellent aerospace companies in the aerospace industry park, none of them can reach the level of star technology. Some of them are huge in size. The scale of the park is several times larger than that of the factory of Starry Sky Technology, but the technical side is lacking. No matter whether it is production equipment or production, it is not advanced. Some have mastered some very groundbreaking and even eye-catching technologies, but the company’s physical mass is not large, and it can only be done to the extent of the supplier of the parts. It can’t be too much climate.

But after discovering this, Grugev was also relaxed in his heart.

Fortunately, there is only one Star Technology.

If the aerospace industry, which has both R&D capabilities and strong production capacity, can have another one, then the strength of the Chinese aerospace industry is too horrible…

The rest of the trip, Lu Zhou, was not accompanied by the Russian delegation. However, at the diplomatic banquet held at the Purple Mountain Hotel in the evening, Lu Zhou, the chief designer of the Lunar Track Construction Committee, still had a face to look.

The banquet is in Chinese style.

Although sitting on the same table as Grugev and Minister Yang and the others, Lu Zhou did not speak very much during the meal.

He is not very good at this special formal banquet occasion, unless someone takes the initiative to talk to himself, otherwise he will not take the initiative to take the initiative, instead he will put almost half of the attention on the delicious dishes on the table.

However, the Minister of Grudev, who was shocked by the technology of Star Technology in the morning, apparently did not intend to let him go so easily, and he had always talked to him.

“In fact, I have always been very curious. The aerospace industry is not a strong field in China. However, in recent years, it has developed so rapidly that it is convenient to disclose how you did it?”

There is no special way to avoid this problem, Lu Zhou laughed said: “Find a direction and then do it best.”

Grugev made a helpless expression and raised the glass in his hand.

“It sounds too abstract.”

“It depends on how you understand it,” and Minister Gruget had a cup. Lu Zhou took a sip and continued. “The so-called direction is also a way to find out how to achieve our goals. This is a researcher. I am honored that the experts we worked with are very good Scholars, and with their help I solved a lot of problems.”

Grugev was interested in asking: “What is the best?”

“Sufficient funding, or a more specific statement, is national execution,” Lu Zhou continued. “Or, more generally, concentrate on the major event and allocate limited resources in the right place. Currently The main problems facing the aerospace industry are commercialization and scale. The former decides the way out and the latter determines the cost. By focusing on the major event, we have solved the problem of scale. Then there is business. How to cooperate with other countries, how to guide private capital into this field will become our main mission.”

“First scale, commercialization?” Grudedev asked with a smile. “But does this violate the objective laws of the market economy?”

“This problem is good for the benevolent, the wise sees wisdom,” Lu Zhou faintly laughed and asked. “At the time, the Queen of Spain funded Columbus’s voyage and finally found a new continent. I would like to ask Grugerf meter, is this in line with the market economy? Objective law?”

Grudev replied: “This question is very interesting, maybe it doesn’t match…but is there an association?”

“Of course there is a connection. The ultimate goal of the aerospace industry is to get out of our homeland and open up our living space. This is essentially the same thing as discovering a new continent,” Lu Zhou raised his glass and once again lightened with Minister Grugerf. I touched the next cup and continued, “The market is a catalyst for social development, but not all things are developed in line with market rules, at least mathematics has never been.”

“hahaha, your point is very interesting,” the red wine in the cup was drunk, and the Minister of Grudev’s bold laugh, watching Lu Zhou send a sincere invitation, “If there is a chance, I sincerely invite you to Going to Russia as a guest, Moscow’s Scholars will definitely be willing to discuss this issue with you.”

Lu Zhou said with a smile : “There will be opportunities. If the situation is going well, I may go to St. Petersburg next year to attend the international mathematics home conference.”

Minister Grugetfu solemnly promised: “If you really come, we will definitely hold a grand welcome ceremony for you and witness the friendship between the two Scholars!”
