Great Power Technology

After saying goodbye to Xiao Zhang Yue, Ye Zhou stopped by the research institute and happened to catch up with members of the Xingyan project team testing the latest samples. Ye Zhou walked to the door of the high temperature laboratory and leaned in front of the monitoring platform to take a look. Experimental result parameters.

"How's it going? Is it effective?"

The researcher on the side nodded and replied:

"The effect is quite good. The principle of this thing is mainly carbon foam insulation. It is mixed with a variety of insulation material formulas from the last century. It should have reached a certain balanced ratio, so it has achieved the best insulation effect. .”

"We are still continuing to analyze the specific principles, but the raw materials used to make this material are actually not as cheap as we thought, including pitch-based carbon fiber, polypropylene carbon fiber, infrared shielding powder, copper, EPX/XPS, Rock wool is mixed together in a mess, and if it is prepared on a large scale, it will be much more expensive than traditional rock wool, mica and other materials."

“Compared to aerogel?”

“It’s not as expensive as aerogel, but it’s not as effective as aerogel either.”

The researcher said candidly.

Ye Zhou nodded and continued to ask:

"Does this thing have development prospects?"

The researcher thought for a moment and replied:

"At present, it seems that the development prospects are still very broad, especially in the field of aviation coatings, but to achieve this, we must first achieve large-scale preparation. We are still in the laboratory preparation stage."

"In addition, the formula also needs to be modified. After testing in the past few days, we have found a lot of useless raw materials, such as silver, copper, etc. These high thermal conductivity materials should be used to cooperate with carbon foam for heat dissipation at the beginning of the formula design. , but after analyzing the overall data, the negative effects outweigh the positive effects.”

"Okay, you continue to work on it and strive to produce results as soon as possible."

After leaving the high-temperature laboratory, Ye Zhou went to the office of the aviation theory team. They did not have a dedicated on-site test site, but they had established a large computer simulation laboratory. It was just after dinner. Most of the researchers have gone off work, leaving only a few singles still resting and paddling in the laboratory.

Seeing Ye Zhou come in, these paddling researchers were a little embarrassed - but when they were still in school, they were caught paddling by their boss in the laboratory not once or twice, and it was off duty time, so Ye Zhou didn't do it either. Take it seriously.

He directly called the leader of the project team to briefly ask about the progress. He had already provided the disassembled GE-9X design drawings to the R\u0026D team, and the research team should have completed the preliminary drawing work.

"Boss, after reading the pictures, the main technical difficulty we see now is the high temperature resistance of the combustion chamber. However, I heard that fluorescent iron will be used to solve this problem in the future, which is okay."

“In addition to this, there are also many difficulties such as the strength of stator blades, graphene-reinforced aluminum-based nanocomposite blade materials, medium-temperature creep issues, and air-mold cooling flame tube issues, but fortunately, there are no technical blind spots yet. "

"In addition, boss, we need to recruit a few more people who are engaged in finite element to do blade design and shield volume optimization design."

Ye Zhou had already absorbed the basic knowledge about aviation and engineering from the system, so he was no stranger to these professional terms in his mouth, but he still felt a little confused.

Judging from what the other party just said, this is no longer a difficult issue, it is simply a difficult issue from beginning to end.

Fortunately, such difficulties are only for research and do not actually affect trial production. As for the extent of optimization, it depends on the actual needs of the military.

After all, the only purpose of this R\u0026D team is to feed reverse-engineered technology back to the military.

As for the business world? We will use GE-9X to support it for the time being, and then let companies like Aviation Technology do their own research and optimization.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou said:

"If you want someone, just tell Xu Lei, but you have to write the JD yourself. When the time comes, communicate with them well and make the standards and restrictions clear. Don't find it difficult to use when the time comes. Slowing down your own efficiency."

"I know boss. By the way, can we directly recruit people from Shufei? Xiaowan mentioned it to me before, saying that she has resources there."

"Why is she still telling you this?"

Ye Zhou frowned.

"Hum, it just came up during the chat. What's wrong, boss, do you mean we'd better not poach?"

"It's best not to. It's quite rude to poach you here - but those with strong needs can still be poached."

"Okay, Shufei has the most people doing finite element. I'll tell Xiaowan when the time comes."

Ye Zhou nodded, exchanged a few words with other people in the laboratory, turned around and left the laboratory.

After he left, the researchers who were originally scattered in various locations in the laboratory gathered around him as if they had a tacit understanding.

"Damn it, I didn't see it clearly during the listing ceremony before, but I saw it up close today. Master Ye is really young."

"Aren't you young? I asked before, and she is only 23 this year. Damn, is this the national destiny?"

"Indeed. He is too outrageous. He started with chips first, and then jumped to aviation. The key is that in two fields with such a huge span, he really has something. I don't believe you if you say this is not the national destiny."

"I always have some unlucky thoughts. Back then, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were also the sons of national destiny, but they all seemed to..."

"Damn it, can you stop talking like that?"

"Bah, bah, bah! No, no! Oh, by the way, have you received your salary details?"

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, the researcher quickly changed the subject.

According to Ye Zhou's salary design for the institute, everyone's salary is paid in advance, that is, the next month's salary is paid in the same month, so these researchers have already received the first salary details just a few days after joining the job.

For now, the salary slips are still printed, and after further improvement, they will be uploaded to the system.

"I received it, just like when we talked about it, there is no surprise."

"There are really no surprises, but I heard that there is a surprise from the materials team. They have recently been working on insulation materials and have achieved some results. Bonuses will be issued next month."

"Damn, this bonus is evaluated really quickly. Do you know how much they will give out?"

"Anyway, I heard a lot, starting from the minimum two months' salary."

"Awesome, projects that produce results within a week will give you a bonus of two months' salary. Why is Boss Ye using this for charity?"

"Are you used to being squeezed? It's like buying a horse bone with a thousand dollars, and the Star Rock project is not that simple. It's just a successful laboratory preparation in one week, and they have a lot of things to do in the future."

"Besides, is Boss Ye short of money? He is still working as the executive vice president of Huaji. How much money can he make just by selling Yinglong EDA?"

Hearing his words, a researcher opposite nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to add:

"So it's really impossible for him to be short of money. There are so many things in the chip industry, how much do you think the official valuation can be?"

"Trillion level."

"I guess it's about the same. Hehe, I have an immature idea. I think the specifications of our laboratory are still a bit low. Otherwise, should we ask Boss Ye for two more servers?"

"Then I'm not polite if you say that. I want to build a small wind tunnel."

"Then I want a metallurgical workshop, and I need someone to support it."

The team leader who had been listening finally couldn't stand anymore. He glared at everyone and said:

"We are originally a theoretical laboratory, and if we want this or that, we might as well move Shufei's test bench over here for you!"

"Then if you say so, I'll ask Boss Ye tomorrow. If he agrees, that's not impossible for me."
