Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Hello, Mr. Xu..."

"Xiao Xu is here..."

"Xiao Xu, long time no see..."

Inside the building of Huasheng Aviation, many people greeted Xu Huasheng enthusiastically. Xu Huasheng also responded enthusiastically. He hadn't been here for a long time. When he came here again, it was still a busy scene.

Since the Y-20 project was approved, the building has been brightly lit almost every day, and many times the lights are still on until one or two in the morning.

Sometimes these people are even forced to rest by the company's supervisors. There is no way. These aerospace people are too hard-working. When they invest in research and development, they seem to be willing to die. They really work to death.

The reason is very simple. These R&D personnel who are used to hard times came to Huasheng Aviation and suddenly became nouveau riche. They have money, equipment, and helpers. This makes them feel unreal. They are always afraid that these days will never come back, so they cherish them especially.

But the most important thing is that the speed of breakthroughs in various technologies during this period is unimaginable to them. Sufficient funds, perfect experimental equipment, and various materials continuously sent by Xu Huasheng made these researchers feel like they were dreaming.

Previously, they thought that the technical difficulties were like climbing to the sky, but now they have easily broken through. In just a few months, the technology that has been broken through here can be described as massive.

It's like playing a game. The hell mode I played before was super difficult, and sometimes I felt heartbroken while playing.

Now it has been changed to simple mode, not only that, but it has also been directly krypton gold. The refreshing degree can be imagined. The BOSS that could not be killed before can now be killed in one move. This feeling is so refreshing. These researchers now experience the happiness of RMB players.

This sense of achievement makes them a little crazy. Think about China's backward aviation technology, and then think about the speed of technological breakthroughs now. If no one is watching them, some of them don't even want to sleep.

Xu Huasheng entered the company, which was very lively and busy.

When Xu Huasheng walked into the door of a large office in the building, a young man at the door of the office changed his face when he saw Xu Huasheng.

Xu Huasheng ignored the young man and directly turned the door of the room and walked in.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard a lively argument from inside.

"Why not? I think we should make the best, and the vector engine is the most suitable..."

"Old Zhao, you said it's easy, do you know how difficult the vector engine is? I still think it's better to be stable..."

"What's wrong with being difficult? If it's difficult, we won't do it? The more difficult it is, the more challenging it is. We can't let our fighters lag behind others after they are produced. If so, what's the point..."

"Old Zhao, you are just arguing. We have to solve the problem of whether there is or not first..."

In the room, several old people were arguing, and they didn't even notice Xu Huasheng coming in.

Xu Huasheng entered the room. The room was very large, and there were many design drawings hanging throughout the room. When he saw these design drawings, Xu Huasheng was stunned.

This is the design drawing of the engine, but it is obvious that this is not the engine of the Y-20, but the engine used on the fighter.

"Bosses, what are you arguing about?"

Xu Huasheng suddenly asked. Hearing Xu Huasheng's voice, everyone instantly quieted down and turned their heads to look at Xu Li.

"Boss Xu, why are you here?"

An old man asked quickly, with a little embarrassment on his face, and so did the others, a little embarrassed.

The reason is very simple. What they are doing now has nothing to do with the Y-20 project. They are now secretly doing some private work.

"Are you Boss Song?"

When the old men turned around, Xu Huasheng stared at an old man and couldn't help asking.

Damn, this is a big boss, the chief designer of the No. 10 machine, a super big boss, such a big boss actually came, it's too unexpected.

"Comrade Xu, hello, I came uninvited, please bear with me..."

Song Wen said with a smile.

"Mr. Song, you are too polite. We welcome you to our Huasheng Aviation. Everyone, what are you discussing? Can I listen to you? Maybe I can give you some suggestions?"

Xu Huasheng said with a smile, and this sentence made several people swallow their saliva.

"Well, Mr. Xu, I'm sorry. We did some private work..."

The old man surnamed Zhao couldn't help but say, which made Xu Huasheng laugh.

"Teacher Zhao, just do it, as long as it is beneficial to our country's aviation industry, private work is private work. Is this a fighter engine?"

Xu Li pointed to the design drawing on the wall and asked.

"Yes, this is a fighter engine designed by us. The purpose is to equip our new fighter jets in the future.Now the engine is domestically produced..."

Song Wen said directly, and then told the matter they were arguing about.

The reason for the argument is that there are currently two options. The first is the ordinary option, imitating the Soviet engine, or making some improvements on this basis to meet the needs of domestic fighters, which is also the safest method.

The second option is bolder and more radical, that is, to develop its own engine, and the engine developed is a vector engine, which has better performance and can allow fighters to exert greater combat effectiveness, of course, it is also more difficult.

"Mr. Song, this engine is used on the domestic third-generation fighter, right?"

Xu Huasheng asked with a smile, which made Mr. Song's face immediately serious.

"Mr. Song, I'm just guessing. This kind of engine is obviously redundant when used on the second-generation aircraft. "

Xu Huasheng's explanation made everyone feel relieved. After all, Project No. 10 is a top-secret project. If it is leaked, it will be a big deal.

"In fact, for me, there is no need to argue. Only children make choices. As adults, we all want both..."

Xu Huasheng's words made everyone stunned. Want both? Develop both engines?

"We want the ordinary engine, and we also want the appropriate engine. We will use whichever one comes out first. If you ask me, we should make two versions of our aircraft, one for foreign trade, to make money by exporting, and one for our own use, which has stronger combat effectiveness. Just like the fighter jets of the United States, they play like this. You know, the profit of fighter jets is very high. "

Xu Huasheng said with a smile, which made everyone swallow their saliva, and looked at Xu Huasheng with a serious expression.

"When the time comes, our aircraft, the export version, will use ordinary materials for the fuselage, ordinary engines for the engine, and slightly worse radar, avionics and other systems. This low-profile version of the fighter has good combat effectiveness and is also a weapon for many countries. We use the high-end version, with the most advanced composite materials for the fuselage, vector engines for the engines, and the best radars, avionics, etc. The appearance will look similar, but the combat effectiveness will be completely different..."

Xu Huasheng's words made everyone in the room swallow their saliva, as if this way of playing is really possible. During this period, they have seen a lot of advanced technologies at Huasheng Aviation. With these technologies, it is not difficult to have two solutions for one model.

Song Wen fell into deep thought after hearing Xu Huasheng's words.
