My science and technology museum - Chapter 189 Cooperation from the military industry
“Sure enough, the gap between us and Mr. Xu is much bigger. Just this calm nature is worth learning for me throughout my life.”
outside the office.
Liang Fuxing, who came out of it, couldn’t help but sigh.
Thinking of his performance just now and comparing it with Xu Lei, I just felt ashamed.
Originally, when they saw Xu Lei ascending to the top of the Forbes list of the world’s richest people, beating out the senior overseas rich, they thought that as subordinates they should go and congratulate him.
After all, they themselves were very excited.
So I spent money to buy a bottle of quite old champagne.
As a result, when they entered the office, they found that Xu Lei, the client, was much calmer than them.
It was obvious that he didn’t take this matter to heart at all.
It can be said that most people cannot achieve this state of mind.
Hear the sound.
Hange next to him was also deeply concerned.
“Who says it’s not the case? If I were the richest man in the world, I wouldn’t be able to be as calm as Mr. Xu.”
However, Lu Hongbo listened to the conversation between the two and immediately explained with admiration: “We Xu always have ideals. He himself is not interested in money at all, so he has no feelings about the title of the world’s richest man. Besides, Xu Haven’t you already accepted the champagne we sent you?”
After listening to Lu Hongbo’s explanation, several people suddenly felt that it made sense.
Judging from the long-term contact with Xu Lei, he is indeed not very interested in money, and this is fundamentally different from Lao Ma.
Then he said nothing more.
“Sure enough, Brother Lu understands Mr. Xu best!”
Finally, after praising Lu Hongbo from the bottom of his heart, he returned to his job.
But at the same time that Lu Hongbo and others left, Xu Lei received a call from Yu Hongliang in the office.
——
“Need our help, I understand.”
After a while.
Xu Lei said such words in a deep voice, and then hung up the phone on Yu Hongliang.
Xu Lei was quite surprised when Yu Hongliang called suddenly at this moment, especially when Yu Hongliang expressed the need for help from his research center on the phone.
Although the other party simply said it was related to materials, they did not explain in detail what they needed help on the phone.
But Xu Lei always felt that it was not that simple.
The talents in the main military industry are not necessarily much weaker than those in his research center, not to mention that a quantum computer has just been built in the base.
Coupled with Xingtong’s primary authority, basic problems faced can be effectively solved.
This is also the reason why military products have been rapidly updated in the past two years.
Now that Yu Hongliang is actively seeking help, it means that the problem he encountered must be difficult and cannot be solved in a short time by himself.
And since it was an invitation from the military, Xu Lei had no reason to refuse.
What’s more, he and Yu Hongliang were old friends.
Thinking of this, Xu Lei no longer hesitated and immediately issued instructions to Xingtong to arrange the task.
“Xingpu.”
“Ask Gu Sanlin from the research center to come to my office.”
“It’s the boss.”
Xingtong would not question Xu Lei’s order, and would immediately execute it after hearing the sound.
Gu Sanlin is the most accomplished person in the research center in materials. Previously, he led the team to research the materials used in Xingyuan smart cars and quantum computer refrigeration systems. Now he is definitely indispensable to solve materials-related problems.
So much so that after Gu Sanlin received the news, he showed no objection.
Dang even agreed and followed Xu Lei to Yu Hongliang’s place the next day.
…
The next afternoon.
Xu Lei sat on Yu Hongliang’s military vehicle. Since he didn’t know the destination yet, he couldn’t help but ask: “Commander Yu, where are we going?”
After he brought people together with Yu Hongliang, he was dragged to Fengtian City, a few hundred kilometers away from Binjiang City, but Yu Hongliang temporarily gave up on the specific matter.
This made him feel a lot of curiosity.
But if you think about it carefully, the most famous military industrial base in Fengtian City is undoubtedly the fighter jet production base.
Coupled with the information previously disclosed by Yu Hongliang, it can basically be concluded.
And just as Xu Lei expected, perhaps because he was almost there, Yu Hongliang no longer concealed anything and directly told the real reason for seeking cooperation with the research center.
“I guess you’ve guessed it too.”
“That’s right.”
“This time it’s mainly about sixth-generation fighters.”
A few minutes later.
With Yu Hongliang’s explanation, Xu Lei finally figured out the details of this matter.
It turns out that the emergence of Xingtong made the military industry make great progress in the research of sixth-generation fighters and nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
Especially after the recent breakthrough of quantum computers, it is equivalent to pressing the fast forward button on the progress of the project.
Now that the sixth-generation fighter jet has basically taken shape and officially conducted a test flight some time ago, it can be said that Yanguo will become the first country to put the sixth-generation fighter jet into service.
At that time, it will inevitably dominate the air domain and achieve overtake in air power.
However, some of the data obtained during the test flight did not reach the original goals. The biggest reason was that the skin and coating materials of the fuselage were not good enough.
Although it is possible to experiment with more suitable composite materials using the powerful computing power of quantum computers, we don’t know how long it will take.
Since the advent of quantum computers and the impact of new energy vehicles on traditional gasoline vehicles, the international situation has become very delicate, and Washington is even more eye-catching.
In this case, the sixth-generation fighter must be put into service as soon as possible to form a certain deterrent.
It just so happens that the materials used by Future Technology in Xingyuan cars and quantum computers have very good performance. As long as the performance is improved on their basis, they can fully meet the requirements for fighter aircraft skins and coatings.
That’s why the fighter jet production base contacted Yu Hongliang and asked him to take the lead in promoting this cooperation.
It has to be said that Xu Lei did not expect that the situation had become so tense. It can only be said that future technology will grow so fast that overseas forces have turned from contempt to fear.
Even resorting to force.
Although now relying on the special capabilities of quantum computers, this side is not afraid of fighting.
But Xu Lei didn’t want this day to come.
Because this represents bloodshed and significant economic setback.
In his imagination, the most appropriate solution would be to use the absolute technological gap to implement dimensionality reduction strikes, so as to defeat the enemy without a fight.
Only in this way can the sustainable development of human civilization be guaranteed.
Otherwise, even competition will only bring destruction.
Xu Lei thought about these things quickly and had no doubts about this cooperation.
that’s all.
Soon when the convoy drove into the fighter production base, a large number of fighter jets came into sight.
Xu Lei could not help but turn his head out the window frequently.
If Lu Hongbo, Liang Fuxing and the others saw this scene, they would probably be shocked. They didn’t expect that Xu Lei, who was calm in front of the world’s richest man, would be so excited by these fighters.
But as the saying goes, men will remain young until they die, and who doesn’t like big airplanes?
It is no exaggeration to say that if Xu Lei made a request, it would be no problem to drive it and fly around in the sky himself after being taught.
Just when Xu Lei was thinking about this, Yu Hongliang had already stopped the car.
“We’re here.”
As the words fell, Xu Lei, Gu Sanlin, Cheng Fei and the others got out of the car and immediately noticed a group of uniformed personnel walking quickly towards them not far away.
“Academician Xu.”
“I am Su Xingye, the chief engineer for the development of sixth-generation fighter jets. I’m really sorry to have you come all the way this time.”
“In addition, I would also like to congratulate Academician Xu for becoming the world’s richest man. This is a very honorable thing.”
As the winner of the highest technology award, Su Xingye must have known Xu Lei, and was deeply impressed by his achievements at such a young age, so when he came over, he first shook hands with Xu Lei and introduced himself.
Xu Lei was naturally very modest about this and quickly responded: “What are you talking about, Chief Engineer Su? We will naturally not refuse where our future technology is needed, not to mention that this is a major matter to improve our air power.”
After saying this, Xu Lei introduced Gu Sanlin and Cheng Fei beside him.
It wasn’t until Yu Hongliang’s voice sounded in their ears that everyone temporarily stopped the topic and went to the manufacturing workshop of the sixth-generation fighter.
“Everyone, it’s better not to stand here anymore, business is more important.”
“Commander Yu is right, then everyone please follow me.” Su Xingye quickly made an invitation gesture upon hearing this, then walked in front and led everyone to the production workshop.
…
Not long after.
When a hypersonic fighter jet with a full-wing silver-gray fuselage crashed into the field of vision, it immediately caught the eyes of Xu Lei and Gu Sanlin. It looked like a child seeing his favorite toy.
Even Cheng Fei next to him had a somewhat complicated look in his eyes.
I don’t know if it reminds me of my life in the army.
Su Xingye didn’t bother them at all. He didn’t introduce him until a few people came to their senses.
“This is the most complete sixth-generation fighter aircraft currently in the base. It uses a variable-cycle adaptive engine and is equipped with laser weapons at the same time. It has the characteristics of high stealth, multi-purpose, high performance and high survivability. In addition, it has unmanned driving capabilities. The model uses your company’s artificial intelligence technology.”
“To a certain extent, combined with quantum computing, the perfect joint battle of multiple unmanned combat aircraft can be achieved.”
“But currently, due to problems with the skin and coating materials, the stealth and flight data cannot meet the design requirements.”
Listening to what Su Xingye said, Xu Lei had to admit that this sixth-generation fighter was indeed filled with a sci-fi feel that could only be found in movies.
In particular, the laser weapons it carries have completely broken away from the attack methods of traditional fighter aircraft.
However, he could also hear some regret in Su Xingye’s words. It seemed that the problem with the materials really troubled the other party.
After all, as the chief engineer of the research and development of the sixth-generation fighter, he definitely hopes to deliver a perfect answer and make the fighter’s performance the most advanced fighter in the world as much as possible.
