Black Tech Scholar

As soon as Cheng Yuan walked out of the house, he saw Academician Cheng and Gong Wang walking over under the diffuse sunlight from a distance.He froze for a moment, and then said, "Academician Cheng, why are you here?" Cheng Yuan walked forward slowly, as if he was welcoming Academician Cheng.Academician Cheng smiled, looked at Cheng Yuan and said, "Xiao Cheng, we have something to ask Professor Liao. Is he still researching?" Academician Cheng didn't want to disturb Liao Yuanbai's research, but he was a little anxious about this matter.

Now the military factory can only make the engine first. After all, Liao Yuanbai's materials have not been determined yet, so it is definitely not possible to make rockets.

But the engine military factory can't make it. It can be said that there is almost nothing that the military factory can do now.Academician Cheng sighed. Foreign countries are imposing a technological blockade on Huaguo, so machine tools must be a no-brainer.However, this engine cannot be manufactured without sophisticated machine tools.

Especially for some parts with extremely high precision, there may be a high probability that even organic machine tools will not be able to produce them.Think about it, this engine can be said to be the most perfect engine blueprint in the world.Moreover, the precision is extremely high. This series of precise data, as well as the principle of the engine, are simply not something that Huaguo can solve now.Academician Cheng also looked at the engine for a long time, only to see that this engine seems to be impossible to manufacture now.

Originally, when he was holding the design drawings, although he had estimated the data, he was amazed that Liao Yuanbai's design of the engine was so perfect.But he actually ignored the fact that according to the current level of Huaguo, such an engine cannot be built at all.

He is quite dumbfounded now, if he could have found out earlier, he should have asked Liao Yuanbai how to solve it.Instead of being like this now, he only discovered such a thing after waiting for the engineer from the military factory to come to him.Perhaps, it also disturbed Liao Yuanbai's research.

Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "It just so happens that Professor Liao has finished his research." After speaking, Cheng Yuan turned around, turned his back to Academician Cheng and said, "Wait a minute, I will talk to Professor Liao."

Academician Cheng nodded, and Wang Gong next to him muttered, "Academician Cheng, will Professor Liao really have a solution? And this engine is really not easy to make at all. At least, the people in our military factory, No one has the confidence to be able to make this thing well."

"Don't worry." Academician Cheng still has some confidence in Liao Yuanbai, so he won't be too worried.But in fact, he didn't have much confidence in his heart, but he definitely needed to comfort Wang Gong, "The design drawings were originally given by Professor Liao. If he wasn't sure, the engine would not be what it is now. You know, This kind of engine is a very cutting-edge thing for the current world, and it is impossible for us to take it out and cooperate with others. For other countries, we must have some reservations."

"I know this." Wang Gong nodded, looked at Academician Cheng, took a breath, and then said, "I was just wondering if the engine is too advanced. Actually, we can improve the technology of the engine. At least...it won't be as difficult as it is now."

Wang Gong's wry smile came into the eyes of Academician Cheng, and Academician Cheng shook his head, "Let's ask Professor Liao first before making a decision."

Academician Cheng himself is also worried, after all, no one knows how to make this engine.If Liao Yuanbai didn't know, it would be embarrassing.The reason why the new space rocket is able to overtake in a curve, surpassing the lighthouse country by so much, can be said that the engine also accounts for a large part.If the engine problem is not resolved, in fact, the plan for this new space rocket has failed in half.

It can be seen from this that, in fact, scientific research is like this, one link links this link, no matter what link goes wrong, it can even affect the overall performance.

Cheng Yuan pushed Liao Yuanbai's room away and said in a low voice, "Professor Liao, Academician Cheng and Mr. Wang from the military factory have something to ask you for."

Liao Yuanbai just took a break, drinking coffee and enjoying the pleasant sunshine.Hearing what Cheng Yuan said, he put down the coffee in his hand. Liao Yuanbai turned his head to look at Cheng Yuan with a smile and said, "Well, let Academician Cheng and Gong Gong come in." Liao Yuanbai guessed in his heart that it might be about the engine.

For his own design drawings, Liao Yuanbai has a clear grasp of what Huaguo can do now and what Huaguo can't do now.Liao Yuanbai is very clear about what is already extremely advanced technology.

Now the rocket is still waiting for him to provide the final materials and cannot be manufactured. The only thing that can be manufactured at the military factory is the booster and engine.

Cheng Yuan looked at Liao Yuanbai's suddenly enlightened expression, and wondered if Professor Liao already knew what academician Cheng and Wang Gong wanted him for?He murmured in his heart, but he didn't speak. He just nodded slightly and walked out of the room.After a while, I came to the gate of the small villa.

Academician Cheng and Wang Gong were waiting anxiously. After seeing Cheng Yuan going out, they asked, "How is it? Is Professor Liao all right now?"

"It's okay." Cheng Yuan said to Academician Cheng with a smile, "You go in, Professor Liao is waiting for you two inside."

Academician Cheng and Wang Gong walked into the small villa together. In the living room, Liao Yuanbai was sitting on the floor, turning the pages of a book.After Academician Cheng walked in, he looked at Liao Yuanbai and hurriedly said, "Professor Liao, have you finished researching your materials?" Academician Cheng was still a little puzzled. Speaking of which, it was only a little over a week since Liao Yuanbai studied synthetic materials.

It's impossible to research the materials so quickly.

"Probably." Liao Yuanbai nodded, pointed to the chair and said, "Academician Cheng, Gong Wang, please sit down and talk."

Academician Cheng and Wang Gong nodded and sat on the chairs.Looking at Liao Yuanbai who was about to speak, unexpectedly, Liao Yuanbai took the lead and said, "The reason why you came to me in such a hurry is because of the engine?"

"That's right." Wang Gong nodded, "Professor Liao, we can't make the engine design drawing you gave us. At present, Huaguo does not have such a high-precision machine tool, and we can make many parts. And you We haven’t figured out the principle on this design drawing. You see, the military factories don’t even know what to do now.”

"Wang Gong, I know you are very anxious." Liao Yuanbai shook his head with a smile and said, "I am also very anxious. I have already thought of this problem when I was designing the engine. There are indeed many high-precision parts that Huaguo still makes. It can’t come out, but there is no way. If this engine is not used, the rocket is basically the same as the original rocket.”

"Then Professor Liao, how do you think this matter will be resolved?" Wang Gong looked at Liao Yuanbai without blinking his eyes.

Liao Yuanbai smiled, looked at Wang Gong and said, "What do you think, Wang Gong?"

Wang Gong was stunned for a moment, looked at Liao Yuanbai, then at Academician Cheng next to him.After thinking for a while, he said, "Professor Liao, what do you think if we replace the engine with the previous one? Of course, I know you mean that you don't want to change it. But, as you know, we can't produce such an engine at present. Engine. And Huaguo's machine tools, you don't know..."

Liao Yuanbai pursed his lips and said, "Wang Gong, I am very clear about Huaguo's current machinery market and achievements. things, but the engine is almost still imported. So, this is an opportunity. It is not only an opportunity for rockets to overtake in curves, but also for other military products and even civilian products to overtake in curves.”

"But..." Wang Gong was rather dumbfounded. Of course he knew that what Liao Yuanbai said was correct. If the engine can be used on rockets, it means that the engine is not suitable for military aircraft, cars or even submarines. Far.However, the crux of this issue is not whether Huaguo can build it or not, but that Huaguo can't build it at all now.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time." Seeing that Wang Gong seemed to be talking, Liao Yuanbai smiled and said, "Wang Gong, don't talk, just listen to me."

Wang Gong froze for a moment, pursed his lips and looked at Liao Yuanbai.He really didn't know what Liao Yuanbai wanted to say, he always felt that Liao Yuanbai looked like he had a plan in mind.Could it be...Professor Liao really has a solution to this difficulty?Wang Gong couldn't be sure, so he had to look at Liao Yuanbai and listen to his speech.

"Foreign countries are now imposing a technical blockade on us. To put it bluntly, it is a lot about technology. Especially for this kind of high-precision technology, foreign countries will never sell it to us. Unless it is a castrated version. "When Liao Yuanbai said this, he frowned slightly, and then shook his head, "No, I think even castrated versions will be sold to us abroad."

"Think about it, Huaguo is still extremely confident in reverse engineering. In addition, our information technology has far surpassed that of foreign countries. Who do you think will sell us machine tools? Although they We can take away the most intelligent piece, but the problem is that we can use it to create our own intelligence. Don’t forget, there is a saying in the world that is so ridiculous, as long as you let Huaguo make something, Everything is priced at the price of cabbage. Developed countries rely on high-tech products to make a living. We have controlled the cost of this thing, and other countries will not be able to take advantage of it. Besides, no one wants Huaguo to become truly powerful. .” When Liao Yuanbai said this, he paused.

"I thought about it for a long time. Since foreign countries don't give us technology, why can't we develop high-precision machine tools by ourselves? You know, if foreign countries can research it, we Chinese people are not stupid than others, and we will definitely be able to research it." After Liao Yuanbai finished speaking, he pursed his lips and watched the reactions of Academician Cheng and Gong Wang.

Wang Gong smiled wryly. Of course he knew that it would be great if Huaguo could develop its own high-precision machine tool.The problem is that Huaguo has been researching and developing for so long, but it still cannot catch up with the pace of developed countries.If it's just intelligence, Professor Liao is probably fine.After all, Professor Liao is a guy who can create optical brains, but for mechanical engineering, he doesn't believe that he can beat Wang Gong to death. Professor Liao can really do some research.

You know, Professor Liao is truly multi-faceted now.His own research is physics, mathematics, biology, and even medicine and information technology seem to be very good at it.In addition to engineering... Wang Gong couldn't imagine what kind of guy Liao Yuanbai was, he was a bit too evil.

"Professor Liao, you are indeed very good." Academician Cheng still spoke. He looked at Liao Yuanbai and said, "But do you think Huaguo can manufacture such a machine tool now? You know, Huaguo has ten percent of the technology for manufacturing machine tools. It has been more than 20 years, but the problem is that it is still impossible to manufacture such high-precision machine tools."

"This is indeed a problem." Liao Yuanbai pursed his lips and said, "So I was wondering if I could try to get involved in this aspect."

"What?" Academician Cheng and Wang Gong were stunned at the same time. What Liao Yuanbai said just now, does he still want to involve this aspect?What was he thinking, what was he trying to do?I'm afraid I'm going crazy.

Wang Gong took a breath, looked at Liao Yuanbai and said, "Professor Liao, are you sure you're not joking?"

"Of course not." Liao Yuanbai shrugged his shoulders, "As for the design drawings of space rockets, I believe that no one is more familiar with the structural parts inside than me. I have studied them one by one during the design, and finally confirmed The current design drawings. In other words, when I was designing, I had already thought of the situation I would encounter today. It seems that my estimation is not wrong."

"Professor Liao, you don't want to make...a high-precision machine tool, do you?" Wang Gong looked at Liao Yuanbai in disbelief. Isn't this span too big? It doesn't look like Liao Yuanbai would make it things.You must know that high-precision machine tools are not a simple matter, otherwise, why so many engineers in Huaguo have not produced such machine tools.

Liao Yuanbai nodded, "You are right, I am indeed planning to manufacture a high-precision machine tool by myself." Liao Yuanbai smiled and said, "You seem very surprised."

"Indeed." Academician Cheng said with a wry smile, "Professor Liao, aren't you being a little messy? You must know that high-precision machine tools are different from other things. Huaguo engineers have devoted half their lives to research and development but have not been able to develop it. Why did Liao Yuanbai still have to engage in this research and development.

It sounded very unreliable, Wang Gong took a breath, looked at Liao Yuanbai and said, "Professor Liao, you are too messy."

"It's not too messy." Liao Yuanbai glanced at Wang Gong and Academician Cheng, and said with a smile, "I actually have a plan, but I guess it will be done after the material experiment is over." When he said this, Liao Yuanbai paused for a moment. He looked around, saw the astonished expressions of Academician Cheng and Wang Gong, and said with a smile, "I already have a plan, but it's not the time to show it yet."

"The plan about the machine tool?" Wang Gong looked at Liao Yuanbai in disbelief. God knows what this professor is thinking.A scholar of physics is no longer satisfied with materials science, biology and informatics, and even wants to come to engineering to intervene.this……

Wang Gong didn't know what to say now. He really didn't know whether to say that Professor Liao was too crazy or that Professor Liao was too evil.It seems that nothing that Professor Liao has done has failed.In other words, Professor Liao actually has a high probability of being able to do this well.

Thinking of this, Wang Gong's heart was full of fire, and his eyes were shining with light when he looked at Liao Yuanbai.He asked in a low voice, "Professor Liao, can you really do it?"

"Not necessarily." Liao Yuanbai did not finish his words, but pondered for a moment and said, "Before I make it, no one is sure that I will be able to make it, but I already have a prototype, and there is a great probability that I can make it Right." Liao Yuanbai had already paid attention to the problem of the engine when designing the rocket.

He knew that it was impossible for Huaguo to manufacture the engine now, so he looked through a lot of data and papers, just wanting to manufacture high-precision machine tools, so that the engine can be truly manufactured, instead of just staying on paper.

"That's it." Wang Gong smiled and said to Liao Yuanbai, "Professor Liao will disturb you today. If you start research and development, please call me. I think I can still help you. of."

"Of course." Liao Yuanbai said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, you are the one who is most familiar with machine tools in the military factory. My plan is not perfect yet, and I need your guidance."

Wang Gong was a little dumbfounded for a moment, "What advice, I want to manufacture high-precision machine tools all my life, but my ability is limited, so I can't help it. But you can think of a way. From this aspect, you can say that you It's far surpassed me."

After sending Wang Gong away, Academician Cheng looked at Liao Yuanbai and said, "Professor Liao, I think you are taking too much risk. Of course, the engine is indeed a problem. But Wang Gong proposed a solution. We can use the previous engine, Even if the imported engine is modified, although it is far away from the engine on the design drawing, it is still a method. If you want to manufacture machine tools, I think there is a high probability of failure.”

"Why?" Liao Yuanbai did not refute Academician Cheng's words, but looked at Academician Cheng suspiciously. He didn't understand why Academician Cheng felt that this matter would fail.

"Think about it, for so many years, our Hua country is still so far behind the developed countries. There are not many geniuses among them. Of course, compared with you, they may not be as smart as you. But you must know that the wisdom of so many people is combined. It’s impossible to think less without you. Why can’t they do it, but you can do it?” Academician Cheng is not reprimanding Liao Yuanbai, nor is he trying to persuade Liao Yuanbai, but is stating a fact.

It is true that Huaguo has been researching engines for so many years, but still has not been able to create an engine that can step into the forefront of the world.Even the engines of many products need to rely on foreign imports.

"Academician Cheng, you are right." Liao Yuanbai said plainly when he saw Academician Cheng, "But have you ever considered such a situation?" Academician Cheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Liao Yuanbai, "What's the situation?"

"That is, some of us have entered into a misunderstanding of thinking, or we have entered into a fixed thinking and have not come out." Liao Yuanbai said with a smile, "For so many years, our engines have been constantly being remodeled, and the machine tools have also been undergoing the same process. Transformation. But why do machine tools and engines still seem to be second-rate or even third-rate in the world? Could it be that the engineers had entered a fixed mindset and couldn’t get out because of limitations in learning and thinking. "

Academician Cheng froze for a moment, Liao Yuanbai's words were not unreasonable.There is indeed such a possibility. If this is the case, then all the engineers together may not think as much as Liao Yuanbai alone.

After all, once you enter a fixed thinking mode, you will only follow the previous mode, and it is easy to get into the dead end.Liao Yuanbai is indeed telling the truth. If he can not be limited to the previous fixed thinking mode, it is very likely to create a new intelligent machine tool.

"I browsed a lot of papers and models about machine tools a few days ago, and I found that most people in the world have already fixed the model thinking of machine tools, and they have been following this thinking. In fact, if you jump out of this thinking mode, It is not impossible to create a new high-precision machine tool if you verify it according to your own ideas. Moreover, I found that a large number of high-precision machine tools abroad are almost exactly the same. It may even be just a brand change. In fact, the parts, Or the principle has not changed at all." Liao Yuanbai thought for a while and said, "Anyway, Academician Cheng, I want to give it a try. It's not my style to give up if you haven't tried it."

"Professor Liao, since you have already said that, I will not persuade you. But you also know that you said that the rocket must be launched successfully in one year." Academician Cheng seemed to be reminding Liao Yuanbai.

"Of course I know this." Liao Yuanbai smiled, "Don't worry, I won't delay other things when I study machine tools. Besides, the materials will be tested tomorrow. I will definitely do well what I should do. "Speaking of which, Liao Yuanbai is the chief person in charge, but Academician Cheng couldn't help but want to remind Liao Yuanbai.

For now, the rocket launch is the real problem. As for the machine tool and the engine, it can be discussed later.But looking at Liao Yuanbai, it seems that he wants to directly manufacture the machine tool and engine.Academician Cheng didn't quite understand Liao Yuanbai's thoughts, but as the general manager, there was no need to tell him what Liao Yuanbai was thinking or doing.

After talking with Academician Cheng for a while, Academician Cheng walked out of the small villa.When Cheng Yuan came in, he asked, "Professor Liao, did you quarrel with Academician Cheng?" When Cheng Yuan saw Academician Cheng go out just now, the expression on Cheng Yuan's face was not very good.He was a little puzzled, when Wang Gong went out, he was obviously beaming.Why is it a little weird when I come to Academician Cheng?

"It's nothing." Liao Yuanbai said with a smile, "It's just that I was a little surprised by Academician Cheng's ideas. This is a big deal. Everyone is engaged in scientific research, and it is normal to have disputes.Seeking common ground while reserving differences, scientific research is not just for everyone, and everyone can express their opinions and suggestions.

"That's it." Cheng Yuan nodded. In fact, he also knew about disputes.But it was the first time he saw academicians coming out of Liao Yuanbai's small villa with sullen faces, so he was a little surprised.

"The experiment will start tomorrow, Cheng Yuan, please help me prepare the data." Liao Yuanbai stood up and stretched, "I'll go to sleep for a while, and the data will be tidy. I will take it to the laboratory tomorrow morning .”

"Okay." Cheng Yuan walked to the table and began to tidy up the table.After Liao Yuanbai washed up, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.The next day Liao Yuanbai woke up a little early, and Cheng Yuan just came in with breakfast, Liao Yuanbai had finished washing, sat on a chair, and read the documents.

"Professor Liao, your breakfast." As soon as Cheng Yuan put it down, Liao Yuanbai stood up and said, "Cheng Yuan pack it up, I'm going to the laboratory now."

"Okay." After Cheng Yuan packed his breakfast, he drove the car to the gate, and Liao Yuanbai sat in the car with the documents.Cheng Yuan drove the car steadily, Liao Yuanbai took out his mobile phone and called Liu Shang, telling him to come to the laboratory as soon as possible.After receiving a call from Liao Yuanbai, Liu Shang frantically cleaned up.

When I came to the laboratory, Liu Shang hadn't arrived yet.Liao Yuanbai casually found a place and sat down, looking at the information in his hand.After a while, Liu Shang hurried into the laboratory and said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Professor Liao, I'm late."

Liao Yuanbai turned around, nodded at Liu Shang and said, "It's okay, let's start the experiment now. Liu Shang, you are responsible for recording the data."

"Okay." Liu Shang hurriedly took the computer and followed behind Liao Yuanbai.

After preparing all the experimental props, Liao Yuanbai put on a white coat and started experimenting. "First of all, we need to see if this material can be synthesized." Liao Yuanbai said calmly, "This is the first step of the experiment, Liu Shang, you have to record it."

"Okay." Liu Shang put the computer on the table and typed on the keyboard.

After a while, Liao Yuanbai said in a low voice, "The experiment was successful, and the materials have been synthesized." He paused, looked at Liu Shang and continued, "Record the data, and the next step is to repeat the experiment for the second time. "

Liu Shang nodded, looking at Liao Yuanbai's expressionless face, he felt that he was under great pressure at this time.
