- Chapter 39: There is no one but no one, the tragedy of Kevlar!
Gao Yuan’s words were more than just hints. They were simply telling Han Chang that Kunlun Company’s X3 fiber is likely to have some properties similar to Kevlar!
“Kevlar? How is this possible!?”
“Aren’t you studying elastic fiber? Why did you turn around and develop bulletproof materials?”
Gao Yuan smiled and said, “What’s impossible?”
“X1 fiber has one model, X2 fiber has two models, why can’t X3 fiber have three or more models?”
“And you know what’s the most interesting thing about fiber?”
“Fibers with different characteristics can be combined with each other.”
“For example, when X1 type fiber and X3 type fiber are combined, it becomes a highly elastic and quick-drying fabric. With slight adjustments, the dehydration performance can be stretched to the limit, and it will be a swimsuit fabric that surpasses shark skin.”
“So you see, fiber is not fixed. The more fiber categories we have, the more products we can produce with different properties according to demand.”
“Recently I have been thinking about injecting X3 fiber into rubber to create a highly elastic sole to improve the jumping ability of ordinary people, or to make extreme lightweighting to create marathon running shoes…”
Han Chang was stunned. Gao Yuan showed him the powerful potential of X fiber. Bounce shoes? Can ordinary people dunk when they wear it?
He looks so powerful. Once he has black technology, can he really do whatever he wants?
“I can’t guarantee that you will do whatever you want, but it should be about the same.” Gao Yuan thought for a while and said: “From a scientific point of view, love comes from a hormone called phenylethylamine. Phenylethylamine has only one effect on the same stimulus source. It has a validity period of 18 to 36 months, so we like the new and dislike the old.”
“In ancient times, when our ancestors fell in love with a woman, they would suffocate her with a stick and drag her back to the cave. That practice was too barbaric. As civilized modern people, we can actually inject phenylethylamine into the woman we like. , and then drag it back to the cave.”
“Of course, if you think women are too troublesome, there is no problem. Robot technology can solve the need for human companionship, and the pleasure comes from a hormone called dopamine. As long as you inject dopamine regularly, you will be guaranteed to be happy every day…”
Well…
Although Han Chang worked in logistics, he was still a soldier. He felt dizzy at Gao Yuan’s such nonsensical thoughts.
Han Chang thought about it, tech geeks are indeed the most terrifying creatures in the world. If one day, the plateau becomes the ruler of the earth, the world we live in will probably be really happy…
“Seriously.” Han Chang quickly stopped Gao Yuan and asked in a deep voice, “When will the samples get to me?”
Gao Yuan said: “Tomorrow at noon.”
“Very good!” Han Chang said excitedly: “I will arrange a test team right away. Once the samples arrive tomorrow, they will go directly to the test line.”
suddenly~
Han Chang frowned and said to Gao Yuan: “However, once this thing passes the test, you will not be able to sell it to outsiders, and it will bring you economic losses. You should know this, right?”
Gao Yuan said disapprovingly: “You know, you know, military supplies cannot be sold casually among the people. All countries attach great importance to protective materials. DuPont’s Kevlar materials are embargoed by our country, and the technology is completely blocked.”
“It’s quite frustrating to think about it. Materials science is the basis of all industries. Without materials science, even a small bulletproof vest cannot be made, let alone other things.”
“To be honest, since I gave you this thing, I’m mentally prepared to lose it. If you think it’s good, just keep it.”
Gao Yuan’s tone was relaxed, but Han Chang on the other end of the phone felt a throbbing in his heart.
Gao Yuan is young, has a cheerful personality, and is willing to take root in basic materials research, which is really rare.
After a brief silence, Han Chang’s tone became much warmer, “You, for such a big thing, you didn’t tell me in advance. How could you send a courier? You should have informed me and I would send someone to pick it up.”
Gao Yuan frowned and said: “It’s not a big deal, it’s just a dozen boxes of bulletproof fiber. I want to give you a surprise, and I specially sent it via SF Express. The shipping fee is much more expensive than other companies.”
Han Chang was speechless for a while. As an ordinary person, Gao Yuan didn’t understand the importance of bulletproof fiber. It was normal. He could send SF Express, so he still had some sense of confidentiality.
“Forget it, give me the express delivery number, and I will handle the rest.” Han Chang said solemnly.
Odd Gao Yuan really didn’t know that he usually left these trivial matters to the general manager Cao Feiyu.
So Gao Yuan asked Han Chang to wait, and trotted into Cao Feiyu’s office. After finding the order number, he sent it to Han Chang. Han Chang also asked Gao Yuan to protect the remaining materials in the laboratory and the chemical preparation plan. Okay, we’ll wait until the test results come out.
Gao Yuan agreed wholeheartedly, and when he hung up the phone, he happened to see Cao Feiyu staring at him with narrowed eyes.
“Animal, what do you see me doing?”
“You didn’t shave.”
“Uh…” Gao Yuan was startled and reached out to touch his chin, and sure enough he felt a short beard.
“I see you are in a good mood. What’s wrong? Have you dealt with everything?” Cao Feiyu asked again.
Gao Yuan nodded, showing an expression of relief, “It’s all completed. From X1 to X3, the three major fiber series are our foundation. Combined with each other, hundreds of varieties can be combined, and there will be no problem in dealing with the clothing fabric market. .”
“If you want to develop further, you need to expand in depth and enter professional fields such as body armor.”
“All in all, our company’s infrastructure has been set up. It will be easier for us in the future. We can go on vacation or something. I promised my parents that if I make money, I will take them to Sanya for a trip.”
Cao Feiyu nodded slightly and muttered seemingly casually, “Whatever, half a year ago, you promised to treat Jiang Yuanyuan to hot pot.”
Phew~
Gao Yuan suddenly blushed.
Cao Feiyu shrugged indifferently, “Don’t look at me. A while ago, I went to the mall to investigate the market share of X fiber and met Fan Xiaoyun. Fan Xiaoyun and Jiang Yuanyuan are best friends.”
Gao Yuan muttered dissatisfiedly: “Isn’t it just a hot pot meal? Jiang Yuanyuan is really stingy. As for telling others.”
Cao Feiyu shook his head slightly, “Stingy? She is obviously showing off, okay? If you treat me to hot pot, no one will care. But if the richest man in Shaoxing treats you, the meaning will be different. Jiang Yuanyuan told her best friend that she would Very respectable.”
“After all, you are a big shot now. When the class gets together, the girls will talk about you. There are even reporters who come to our classmates to investigate the gossip during your school days.”
Gao Yuan was stunned and found it difficult to accept this change for a while.
Suddenly, he came back to his senses and asked in a low voice: “By the way, you just said, who is the richest man in Shaoxing?”
“You.” Cao Feiyu raised his chin slightly.
…
Imperial capital.
Han Chang stood outside the door, straightened his appearance, took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door of Ding Songlin’s office.
“Come in!”
“Xiao Han.” Ding Songlin looked up and then looked down at the chart on the coffee table, “Hey, it would be great if we filled in a few more islands in the South China Sea. That thing is equivalent to a giant unsinkable Where’s the aircraft carrier?”
“Why did you come to see me?”
Han Chang was already used to his superiors’ obsession with tactics. He said in a deep voice: “We just got a call from Gao Yuan from Kunlun Company, saying that they had sent us a batch of bulletproof fiber through SF Express and hoped that we would test it. .”
“Bulletproof fiber?” Ding Songlin was slightly startled, then asked: “What percentage of the performance can reach that of Kevlar?”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ding Songlin felt something was wrong. What does it mean to reach 100% of Kevlar? There is obviously a linguistic error in this statement, and it is strange to look down on people.
But there is no other way. For so many years, Kevlar has been strictly technologically blocked by China. It cannot be purchased and it cannot be reversed. This matter has almost become a worry for the equipment department.
Except for a few military fans, most people don’t know the fact that although our country exports 70% of the world’s body armor, none of these body armor is made of Kevlar material.
Including the body armor currently used by PLA, it is not Kevlar material.
Let’s put it this way, the entire Chinese military does not have Kevlar body armor, and Kevlar is the most powerful bulletproof material in the world.
The equipment department once obtained a batch of Kevlar from the international market and was able to analyze that it was a kind of aramid chemical fiber. Then, there was no more.
We don’t know the spinning speed, cross-sectional structure, and front and rear finishing methods of Kevlar during production, let alone the chemical ratio of the fiber itself, the blending agent, and neutralizing agent used.
There are often people on forums who brag about the fact that China exports 70% of the world’s body armor and that China can sell body armor at a bargain price.
To be honest, if someone from the equipment department saw such a post, it would be very uncomfortable.
Exporting large quantities of low-priced body armor and occupying the global market is of course a good thing, indicating strong industrial capabilities.
But the key point is that we don’t want to give our soldiers the same cheap body armor. We also want some expensive but powerful ones, but unfortunately, they have never been available.
Facing Ding Songlin’s question, Han Chang thought for a while, frowned and said, “Based on my understanding of Gao Yuan and his dedication to technology, since Gao Yuan dares to directly send it to us for testing, I’m afraid its performance will not be lower than Kevlar. Maybe even on top of Kevlar.”
“What!? On top of Kevlar!?”
With a swish sound, Ding Songlin immediately stood up with a slap on the table, his eyes turning red.
Starting today, Huawei has been officially cut off. It seems that the story I wrote in the last book is gradually becoming a reality.
