Rebirth of the Tech Frenzy

Chapter 495 : Strange Flower and Conspiracy

Xiang Qianjin laughed out loud, this time he didn’t hold back at all. The others below couldn’t help but laugh.

Chen Tong asked curiously: “Do they know how big the ladder base is?”

“Shhh…” Xiang Qianjin raised a finger.

“Next, we also invited Huayan Company to participate. This time we came with sincerity and became the construction company of the world’s largest aerospace base. This will make you a highlight of the history of the world. Point.” When the representative of the white elephant finished.

Hans’s representatives stood up, and they asked curiously: “But the question is, so far, the ladder base is still a secret, how do you prove that you surpassed the ladder base?”

“We will have two launchers, heavy launchers. And we will also develop a heavy spaceship within a year. Our own team is conducting research and development on this project. If there is no problem, we should be better than Huayan. The cost is less. The cost is lower. And the time to make is faster!”

Chen Tong whispered: “Speak up without shame.”

The White Eagle representatives in the crowd were disdainful, and they whispered discussions with mocking smiles. Hoffman stood up and said, “As far as I know, the carrying weight of Huayan’s spacecraft is more than 150 tons, while the launch weight of the launch pad is 200 tons. The most important thing is that their spacecraft is recyclable. of.”

“Please rest assured that we will do it. As we all know, our White Elephant is also a major aerospace country. Our aerospace technology…”

After laughing again, Chen Tong asked in a low voice: “How did you say it?”

Xiang Qianjin shook his head, Hans’ representative shook his head and sighed.

Next came the Huayan Research Institute. After all, it is half the host. This venue is also where Huayan often holds new product launch conferences. Xiang Qianjin stood up and smiled and said, “I am very happy to meet so many colleagues in the circle. As we all know, our Huayan is a small company. The competition in the world is already so fierce. Our Huayan just came up with a plan, and then The white elephant is about to surpass us. So this project is very ideal. It is very thoughtful, so we wish you success. For some special reasons, our Huayan has a non-disclosure agreement. Regarding the Tianti base We can’t release all the data about the base. In addition, we can’t release all the equipment in the base. Another thing is that we are now starting the construction of Huaxu Island. But I can tell you about this point, that is Huaxu Island is the follow-up project of the Tianti base. It cannot be built once and then discarded, so we will continue to develop our follow-up development around the Tianti base, so that these bases can truly benefit mankind.”

Xiang Qianjin talked eloquently, and his words were all the same. The people in the venue listened very carefully, especially when it came to the construction of Huaxu Island. Many foreign media originally suspected this and that, but now they have discovered that this is an aerospace project, not military. This can be regarded as an official announcement by Huayan. Let me explain to you the recent worries. After all, a company that exploded a six-hundred-kilometer-diameter asteroid into a planetary ring of Jupiter and built an artificial island on the sea is really scary.

After Xiang Qianjin explained it, he came back and sat down. Geng Li smiled and said, “You kid hurts others really badly.”

Xiang Qianjin was just a smirk and didn’t say anything. It’s best not to talk too much on this occasion.

The representative of the White Elephant made a public bid for the construction site. In terms of surface area, it is indeed larger than China. But there is a problem, that is, the road facilities here are seriously backward, and there is an extremely serious problem with the roads for transporting materials. The area delineated by the white elephant is low altitude. Although low altitude and close to the equator do have advantages in launching, the disadvantages are also very clear, that is, humidity and salt-alkali corrosion. These will have a great impact on the construction of the base. Obstacles, and the place is in the hills and mountains. That dot itself is a very remote place. The construction conditions were really bad, and the problem with the launch silo was the white elephant chose a large launch stand, which can be changed to a tilted launcher. The launch stand is very tall and there are many launch platforms in the base. Coupled with a concrete runway on the bottom of the ski jump to take off.

Xiang Qianjin is dumbfounded, what is this going to do? The purpose of such a long runway is very clear. This one runs a full 5,000 meters long, and it has a platform for skidding to take off, but Xiang Qianjin, to be honest, is a little bit incomprehensible. Could it be that you plan to use a rocket to propel it, and then fly out on this platform? They would not think that Huayan used carrier-based aircraft skid-to-fly technology to send the spacecraft to the sky?

Geng Li blinked, and he whispered: “It’s not this plan, isn’t it sick?”

After Geng Ligang finished speaking, Representative Gaul stood up and said, “No, this plan will not work. Let’s put it this way, although it is theoretically possible to fly the spacecraft from the ground with very high thrust, You should know how much fuel it needs.”

“So we plan to use a catapult. Using a large catapult to accelerate the aircraft, and then increase the speed to a certain height, the inertia will make the spacecraft rush up to the skid runway, and finally go directly to the sky. And the inclination angle of this acceleration, We’ve tested it, and it’s best to choose between fifty degrees and fifty-five degrees. In this case, the energy that the spacecraft finally launches has reached a very high speed.”

“But in that case, you have the most, that is, the low-altitude orbit of the flying knife, and what about the position afterwards? IMHO, this project is not done like this. If you do, it is better to prepare for vertical launch. I think this may be possible. It is more suitable for you. Huayan’s launch is directly to the sky through an electromagnetic acceleration program. This technology is not a catapult, but a coil gun acceleration program. This program will allow the spacecraft to fly out at a very terrifying speed, and The initial velocity of the ejection is very large, basically it is not a problem to leave the solar system. After entering the low-Earth orbit, the engine will turn on, and then directly push the thrust to a more terrible speed out of the solar system, and use the forward ballistic plan to directly drag it over Flew straight to the destination at the speed of the solar system. So from the perspective of the plan, I think your plan is unrealistic.”

“Oh, my friend, I know what you think. We are just a preliminary idea, so if you want to bid, you can design for us.”

“But the question is what do you want to launch? Or what do you want us to do?”

“Yeah, launching spacecraft model, tonnage, these are all important, and now our companies do not have the ability to launch such a thing. Mr. Hoffman, do you have such a capability?”

As the royal representative finished speaking, Hoffman waved his hand and said: “I can’t do this plan. So far we don’t know the real layout of the ladder base, although our experts said about the situation there. , But from what we know, that place is still very mysterious, and there is no clue at all. At least in the next fifteen years, it is impossible for any country to imitate this thing. There is a natural existence of this thing. Technical obstacles, that is, material obstacles. I think they did not use steel, or they used very good ones. Just now, the base actually used a lot of super new materials, which are difficult to achieve with current metal materials. When they accelerate, AC or DC power. We are not sure. In this plan, whether DC power is better or AC power is better. We don’t know this yet. In short, the construction of the ladder base is basically impossible to imitate. Since it cannot be imitated, There is no way to say beyond. Everyone should be at least the same type of product. And the plan you said is not feasible, the speed is climbing? Did you eat something wrong?”

After Hoffman finished speaking, the hall burst into laughter, but the most convincing thing was that the representatives of the white elephants were not shy or embarrassed at all.

At this moment, the representative of Shige Sakura said: “As far as we know, there are actually new plans for this runway. Although electromagnetic acceleration plans cannot be used. At least the magnetic levitation orbit plan can be used. To build a super track, directly use the tilt angle. It will have the same effect when launched, but the total amount is not above the order of magnitude. However, the cost is definitely much lower than that of Huayan. Our company is willing to undertake this project.

Xiang Qianjin looked at the representative, he smiled and nodded, and asked curiously: “What does he mean?”

“High-speed rail.” Xiang Qianjin said calmly.

“Ha? High-speed rail? This means that this runway is launched by high-speed rail. They have built too many Shinkansen? Are they really planning to build a trainman?” Geng Li asked suspiciously.

Xiang Qianjin said with a smile: “Theoretically speaking, this scheme is feasible. Increase the energy and make two tracks. Finally, it is open. The chassis of the spacecraft can use small rollers. Then it is easy to carry out the contraction scheme. The part is completed on the ground, and then a pipeline is built, and the spacecraft is launched inside the pipeline. The thrust generated by this is similar to that of a gun barrel, but the weight may only be a few hundred kilograms. If you are lucky, You can really fly to Mars.”

“Fuck, Shigeo is really scary, I can figure it all out.”

They are better than other countries in terms of tapping potential and detailing, and this project is really only they can win this project.

“You mean, is it the same track as the ladder base?”

“Yes, but it needs to be covered by pipelines. After all, it is a place with high salt and high humidity, but this requires a nuclear power plant. If we are to contract, this nuclear power plant should be packaged and built. After all, how to match it, we do it ourselves, yes The best. Of course, the price can be negotiated, and we can provide an ultra-long loan repayment cycle, and there are also ultra-low interest loan programs, and the cooperation model can be negotiated!”

The representative of the white elephant was moved by the words from Shigeo’s side.

Geng Li asked curiously: “Why do they do this?”

“Improved technology, this is smart. I can’t build it in my own country, but I can build it for other countries, and maybe it can be used for free in the future. Through a fee-based plan, I can add a paid overseas launch site to myself. If you can make your own nuclear power brand, why not do it?” Xiang Qianjin said, Geng Li shook his head and said, “It’s impossible to guard against! Can’t you people be clean? This strategy is too dirty? You are not tired. Huh?”

Xiang Qianjin smiled and said, “Hehe, in this world, laziness is deadly.”
