In fact, such innovative schools have always existed, and the thinking of Shen Tinglan's generation is no better than that of their predecessors.

However, challenging new technologies means encountering greater risks.

Maybe it will take more than ten years to figure out any new technology, and I will spend my whole life.

Maybe the launch failed like today, and the future is ruined.

Moreover, aerospace planning is often bounded by ten years, and the cycle from plan to achievement is often longer than the tenure of the leader. Most of the time, only front-line researchers and engineers can stick to it.

Fortunately, as Shen Tinglan's generation grew up, they gradually gained the right to speak and met leaders who supported the new technology route.

Ten years ago, the leadership of the academy approved Huang Er's research and development.

In order to make up for lost time, and to take advantage of this precious decade, Huang Er plans to adopt more than 90% of new technologies, much higher than the international average of 30%.

Such a leap forward will of course bear unprecedented risks.

From the day the Huang Er project was established, it has been subject to controversy.

Some people don't want the technology they have specialized in all their lives to be eliminated.

Some people criticize in order to distance themselves from risks.

Some people criticize in order to hit their career opponents.

Some people held the honor plaque of "China Aerospace" to criticize.

Even so, Shen Tinglan's generation still withstood the pressure, overcame all difficulties, and sent Huang Er to the launch pad.

Before it fell into the Pacific Ocean, no one in the entire team imagined the result of the launch failure.

It's not that you can't, it's that you dare not.

Whether it's the anger of the old aerospace company, the anger of higher-level officials, or the public's accusations of wasting people and money,

None of them can bear it.

When Li Zheng heard the end, his body couldn't help shaking violently.

He seemed to see the woman who was alone, dropped everything, and single-handedly fought against the world.

When she swayed all the way to the end.

What greeted her was an abyss.

"So...don't bother your mother..." Lin Yujing wiped her eyes and said, "Even if we can enter the courtyard...Maybe she's gone by then, and Huang Er isn't here... Besides, we can what to do?"

"Do whatever you can, and do as much as you can." Li Zheng put his arms around Lin Yujing and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't accomplish anything, just treat it as learning engineering."

"But..." Lin Yujing gritted her teeth, "If there is no mother, no Huang Er... I will hate it..."

"Yeah, no one can make you learn something you don't like."

Li Zheng let go of his hand and jumped out of the car.

"Suddenly remembered what the old man said last."

"Never despair."

"It's not the despair of the objective world, but the despair of people."

"Is it to be alone, or to accept the reality."

"Whether you are upright or not, you can still bend and stretch."

"We have to face it ourselves and make our own choices."

"It's nothing too bad, it's not a big deal."

"Don't despair."

Li Zheng said and patted Lin Yujing.

"We shouldn't have stopped where we were."

"walk home."

"Mechanics, Engineering, Power, Engineering Cybernetics."

"There are a lot of things waiting for us to learn."

……

The Collaboration Building of Wenhai Space Launch Site.

Shen Tinglan followed the commander-in-chief Chen Hongbing all the way to the elevator.

Before she knew it, she and Chen Hongbing had worked together for nearly 20 years.

Chen Hongbing is ten years old, and the first time I saw her was in college.

At that time, Chen Hongbing was still a vigorous young man in his early 30s, responsible for the recruitment work in the courtyard.

It is said to be recruitment, but due to the particularity of the aerospace system, it is more like the assignment of the eight 90s.

At that time, the parents of the classmates who were related in the system had already greeted them.

Shen Tinglan thought that all 4 places should be reserved by default.

But Chen Hongbing still picked himself.

"Why didn't you go to Ji University?"

In the interview office, Chen Hongbing looked at the files and asked, "I see your father is from the Mathematics Department of Ji University, and his college entrance examination scores have already exceeded the Ji University line."

"I like aerospace." Shen Tinglan replied.

"What's so good about aerospace?" Chen Hongbing put down the file and smiled, "Tired, low salary, hard work for many years may not necessarily produce results, and there are political burdens, the future may be ruined at any time."

Shen Tinglan blinked at him: "But I like aerospace."

Chen Hongbing was at a loss for words for a while. After working for many years, he was unexpectedly told by a student that he didn't know how to answer.

"I mean... this job will be very hard, and the investment will not be proportional to the effort."

Shen Tinglan looked at him incomprehensibly: "Does this have anything to do with whether I like it or not?"

"Hmm..." Chen Hongbo rubbed his chin and tried his best to explain, "Aerospace can be your interest, of course, but it is also work. In terms of work, the most important thing is that it suits you and you can persevere for a long time. We There are many colleagues who also like aerospace, but after a long time, when the pressure and intensity come up, the interest will be quickly wiped out."

Shen Tinglan lowered her head and smiled shyly, "No."

"Don't talk big." Chen Hongbing also laughed, "I'll tell you the truth, the intensity of the technical work in the courtyard is extremely high. Many lesbians tried to transfer away after they got married, which made our dean burnt out. Before we set off, he specifically told me that he didn't want to recruit any girls... I'll just say it in private, so don't spread it to the outside world."

"No." Shen Tinglan smiled and covered his face, "It's okay, it won't work here, there are the Second and Third Hospitals, if it doesn't work, I'll go abroad and come back after studying, then it should be fine."

"Well...you can choose a famous foreign school at will at your level." Chen Hongbing looked at Shen Tinglan's transcript and tutor's comments, scratched his head, and smiled wryly, "I really can't bear to let you go...but I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on... You said that your conditions are so good in all aspects... so good that it's unrealistic..."

"Mr. Chen." Shen Tinglan asked suddenly, "Do you like aerospace?"

"I..." Chen Hongbing was taken aback, "I like..."

Shen Tinglan lowered his head again, and smiled more shyly.

This was the first time that Chen Hongbing disobeyed the director's order, resisted all opinions, and recruited a woman into the hospital.

Neither he nor Shen Tinglan could have imagined that it would take 20 years to go this way.

In 20 years, Chen Hongbing became the chief conductor, and Shen Tinglan became the chief designer.

They have long forgotten how many times they have resisted all opinions.

But today.

8 month 8 day.

Maybe for the last time.

In the elevator, Shen Tinglan stood silently behind Chen Hongbing.

Visible to the naked eye, Chen Hongbing's hair was much whiter than a few hours ago.

Even though he tried his best to cheer for the youngsters, he was exhausted at this moment.

"Teacher Chen." Shen Tinglan's tone was as gentle as ever, "Wait for the video meeting, give me 5 minutes to speak."

"It's useless." Chen Hongbing shook his head and smiled, "It's useless for you to take full responsibility for this matter, not to mention you, and I may not be able to handle it, and the dean will lose half his life. "

"It's okay, I'll try it." Shen Tinglan said softly, "The technical direction is correct. 80% of the new technologies have passed the experimental test. As long as these materials are kept, someone will use them in the future."

"..." Chen Hongbing was dumb for a moment, then looked back at Shen Tinglan who was no different from the past, and said, "Tinglan, sometimes I really don't understand how you manage to be so light."

"I like aerospace." Shen Tinglan lowered his head and smiled shyly.

Chen Hongbing's face trembled. He who had always been a strong role model suddenly stopped crying.

Ding.

When the elevator arrived at the first floor, he wiped his eyes in a hurry: "Your level is not high enough, I will report. Only when the leader questions technical questions, you can answer, but you are not allowed to say a word other than technical."

After speaking, he let out a long sigh of relief, and walked into the small meeting room with Shen Tinglan.

In the conference room, the heads of all parties are already in place. Including the two of them, there are six people in total.

After 2 minutes of silence, the launch team connected the video signal.

The four leaders on the screen also looked solemn.

In the next ten minutes or so, Chen Hongbing completed the preliminary accident report in an even and steady manner.

After the leaders raised a few more key questions, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.

"Okay, it's getting late." The leader in the middle put down the materials in his hand and said thoughtfully, "The pictures on the TV station have been broadcasted, which has caused a lot of impact. There are opinions from all sides, and even some retirees. The leader called me overnight and asked me to stop the project immediately and stop wasting resources.”

The conference room was silent, and everyone felt an invisible force pressing on their shoulders.

"Hong Bing." The leader looked at the screen and said, "Before the project was approved, you said that this is a step that our aerospace industry must take, or you will die. I still remember your virtue of slapping the table at that time."

"Yes." Chen Hongbing took a deep breath, stood up and bowed his head and replied, "I also said that I made the opinion, and I am responsible for any problems. The fact is also the same. It is I who failed to fully discover the hidden dangers of Huang Er's engine."

"Why are you excited?" The leader waved his hand, "Then you should also remember that I also said during the meeting that I approved the project and I will be responsible for any problems, but whoever does not implement it will be responsible."

"..." Chen Hongbing lowered his head deeply and remained silent.

"Hong Bing, the crime you asked me for, I have also asked you upward." The leader cleared his throat, stared at the screen, raised his finger upwards, and suddenly raised his voice an octave, "Comrades, today may It is the darkest day in the history of China's spaceflight, but please know that even so, the superiors, as always, affirmed our technical route!"

All the people who bowed their heads in the conference room raised their heads in astonishment.

"300 days!" The leader slammed his fist on the table and said, "We have [-] days to complete zeroing. Do everything we can to try to launch again at the end of next year. This is the order I received. Death order, even death Order to be completed!"

Chen Hongbing didn't even think about it, and shouted with wide eyes: "Huang Er's team! Accept the order!"

Immediately afterwards, everyone in the conference room stood up.

Looking at the tragic and resolute eyes of everyone, the leader couldn't bear it.

"Then go to rest quickly. How long have you been here, do you still think the public opinion is not tense enough? Don't have any more personnel health accidents at this time."

"I can't sleep even if you ask me at a time like this." Chen Hongbing forced a smile, "The order has been obtained, and we will go to rest when the report is out."

"Okay, the meeting is adjourned." The leader nodded and said, "See you in Jijing."

"See you, Jijing."

After leaving the conference room, Chen Hongbing seemed to be born again, he became brighter and talked more.

Shen Tinglan still had that calm look: "300 days...too tight."

"Don't think about it now." Chen Hongbing patted Shen Tinglan and said, "We can do whatever we can. After 300 days, it's impossible to shoot us all, right?"

Shen Tinglan thought about it: "We need to transfer people from other courtyards."

"That's easy to say." Chen Hongbing gestured, "Let them do the data analysis and accident analysis. You give priority to the zero-return plan, and I'll ask for someone after it's done."

Shen Tinglan nodded and said: "Time is tight, we need the most experienced people in various fields, but it is unlikely that such people will be released by various units."

"Hey, it's a big deal. I'll knock on the door and ask for it. The brother unit will help me when life and death are at stake."

"Ah."

While talking, Chen Hongbing suddenly received a call.

"What? Intern?"

Chen Hongbing's eyes widened again.

"Old Deng, when is this? I haven't had a meeting with you yet. Tell me this?"

"Who?"
