No matter how angry he was, Peng Zhengge could not let the Russians keep this cooperative research and development project. Fortunately, there is good news from Hongxin. They plan to establish a new aero-engine research center that will be even better in terms of power and performance.
According to the performance of this engine, it can not only drive the planned CR929, but also even heavier large passenger aircraft. Therefore, wide-body passenger aircraft with more load capacity are also on the manufacturing list of China Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company.
…
Half a year later, China Commercial Aircraft Aero Engine Research Center.
As the most complex mechanical system in aircraft, aeroengine is very difficult to research, so this research center occupies an area of two football fields and covers everything from materials laboratory to mechanical structure design.
"Assemble!" Outside a new aircraft engine, an assembly robot arm puts the aircraft engine together. This is a mechanical power unit with a precise structure, using new aviation technology materials. The mechanical structure has been repeatedly improved by researchers and quantum brains. It can be said that it is currently the most powerful aerospace engine in the world.
This aeroengine model "hf001" is installed on a magnetic levitation transport carriage. It will be installed on the CH939 large wide-body passenger aircraft of China Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company for test flights.
The ch939 is the first fully independent commercial large aircraft launched by China Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China and Hongxin Group. Its load capacity has exceeded that of the most popular wide-body large aircraft from Boeing and Airbus.
939, which represents the ordinary model of the ch939 wide-body large aircraft, has 390 seats! Moreover, the distance between seats is wider than that of other large commercial aircraft. Together with other equipment, this means that to drive such a large and heavy aircraft into the sky, it must require a super powerful power system!
At the test airfield, the company's senior management and R&D personnel looked at the behemoth on the tarmac with expressions of anticipation.
hf001 has been equipped with ch939, and the next step is test flight time!
"Everything is ready! Please give instructions!" the captain shouted from the cab.
"Take off!" Peng Zhengge shouted.
The plane started to start, and it took a run-up on the runway. The powerful impeller began to rotate, the air roared, and people felt the wind driven by the big plane blowing past their faces.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the behemoth on the runway. The captain calmly controlled the plane and looked straight ahead.
Soon, the plane began to rise. Driven by the airflow, the wings tilted upward and pointed in the direction of the blue sky.
A few seconds later, the entire CH939 aircraft was in the air and soared into the sky.
"It's flying!"
"Heaven!"
People cheered, clapped excitedly, and looked up at the figure in the blue sky.
"Report, everything is normal. The current altitude is 308 meters and continues to climb." The crew member's voice sounded in the communicator.
"Okay, keep going up."
"It's done!" Peng Zhengge still raised his head, even though the shadow of the plane was getting smaller and smaller, gradually disappearing into the clouds.
"From today on, we can completely manufacture commercial large aircraft independently. It has been more than thirty years!" The chief designer of ch939 said with emotion. From the first commercial large aircraft project to the present, they have finally achieved everything from screws to engines. From materials to mechanical equipment, it was completely made independently, and a few lines of tears rolled in his eyes.
How many scientific researchers have worked in obscurity for decades for this day
"From the land to the sky and the ocean, everything will be rewritten!" Lu Zixin looked at the blue sky, his sight seemed to penetrate the clouds and reach the vast starry sky.
…
The aviation engine thing is not over here, but has just begun. After the successful test flight of CH939, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration became their first customer. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration did not want to purchase aero engines for civil aviation, but asked them to help design and manufacture aero engines for use on large load-bearing rockets.
This kind of load-carrying rocket is part of the national moon landing plan.
…
The main body of the city of the future has been constructed, and on the edge of the desert, a high-tech city is rapidly developing and growing. From here, the Hongxin Group has traveled to all parts of the world, including Asia, Europe, America, Africa, Australia, and even the frozen Antarctic continent.
Microelectronics, optoelectronics, electronic information, space science, aerospace, materials science, new material technology, life science, bioengineering, energy technology, ecological science, ocean engineering, earth science, basic materials, radiation technology, medical science, biology …
Both basic science and applied science have been developing at an alarming rate in the more than ten years since the emergence of Hongxin Group. Scientists and sociologists call it the 21st century technological explosion! Also called, the fourth industrial revolution!
The fourth industrial revolution, which is dominated by artificial intelligence, clean energy, robotics, quantum information technology, virtual reality and biotechnology, has brought to people not only technological progress and biological changes, but also the socio-economic development of the entire human race. The structure has changed dramatically.
This change is not only good, but also bad.
Fully automated factories have gradually replaced traditional manufacturing. Artificial intelligence has opened up some low-tech jobs. Unmanned transportation has taken over the transportation industry. Even the art and entertainment industry has seen the emergence of a large number of virtual idols and artificial intelligence art designs.
There is an old saying in China that if you take too big a step, you will easily get hurt. This is the case in today's society.
City of the future, technology tower.
Lu Zixin sat at his desk and looked at the latest news reports.
"On July 14, local time, more than 30,000 French people took to the streets to protest against the President's latest "Regulations on the Application of Industrial Robots." The scale of this demonstration was twice as large as the previous one, and there were also cases of beating, smashing, looting, and burning. and other violent acts. It is reported that this activity has spread to various European countries. Economists from the University of Cambridge call for technology to come more slowly. We are not ready to enter the intelligent era!"
"The latest reports indicate that the latest wave of unemployment in the United States has shown signs of getting out of control. People gathered in front of the White House to express their dissatisfaction with the president. According to surveys, the president's approval rating has dropped by 15.4 percent in the past month. !”
"The famous international company xx declared bankruptcy today... The stock market has fallen across the board, and a new financial crisis has arrived... "
"A wave of protests against technology companies represented by Hongxin Group has been launched on the domestic Internet. They believe that technology has deprived them of job opportunities and caused a large amount of traditional industry news to make people unemployed."
…
"It's just nonsense!" Su Zhirong walked into the office and said: "I went for an interview today, and the reporter actually said that our Hongxin Group is the main culprit of the global economic turmoil!"
Lu Zixin said nothing, thought for a moment, and said, "The changes are so fast that the world has no time to prepare."
"If we talk about the economy, from the perspective of big data, the global economic aggregate has increased by 30% compared with the past ten years!" Su Zhirong said.
"But the unemployment rate has also increased!" Lu Zixin said, "The industrial structures of various countries have not been able to adjust with technological progress. This period is something we must go through."
"Now both the media and governments are suspicious and wary of us. Some small countries have even decided to temporarily suspend the use of high-tech technologies." Su Zhirong said.
"What era are we in, and you still want to close the country?" Lu Zixin smiled and said: "In this new era, most people are at a loss and they can't find their direction. Since we have led the advancement of science and technology, we should also Make this society a better place.”
"Help me prepare. Isn't there a World Artificial Intelligence Conference in the Future City this month? I want to attend." Lu Zixin said.
"Are you sure? Those reporters and colleagues will never make it easy for you." Su Zhirong said. Social conflicts are intensifying now. If Lu Zixin goes public, all kinds of troubles will definitely be inevitable.
"Get ready."
