Chapter 44

Longguo Aerospace Base,

The main control room of the ‘Zhuang Ba’ carrier rocket project,

There was dead silence in the huge room. At the moment when the Zhuangba carrier rocket disintegrated,

It was as if someone had struck a heavy punch in the hearts of many Longguo space people.

They were caught off guard and desperate to live!

At this time, Wei Pengyu, who was in front of the main control computer, had a low expression, slowly took off his reading glasses, and rubbed his eyebrows inadvertently with his right hand.

There was a sense of exhaustion in his eyes.

As the chief engineer of the Zhuangba launch vehicle, Wei Pengyu has been appointed as the chief engineer when the Longguo aerospace talents were in desperate situation when the “Zhuangba” project was approved several decades ago.

So far, he has been fighting for the aerospace industry of Longguo, or the “Zhuang Ba” project, almost his whole life!

From the initial theoretical framework, to the entity formation that began ten years ago, to the first launch of the Zhuangba carrier rocket, this step-by-step process has chucked his body and dyed his black hair white.

Even today’s failure, this old man has always dedicated his glory to the forefront of the aerospace industry.

After a while,

Wei Pengyu’s body straightened abruptly, the expression of loss was not there, and his eyes flashed, after scanning a circle of depressed people in the main control room.

He picked up the microphone in front of him, and then a calm voice came slowly from his mouth.

“Comrades, cheer up! Our backbone will not bend because of a little difficulty!”

“Next, I hope that all comrades will quickly adjust their mentality and continue to devote themselves to work. This setback will only add an unforgettable memory to us who will eventually win in the future!”

“…”

As Wei Pengyu’s words continued to spread to the staff involved in the “Zhuang Ba” launch vehicle project, everyone wiped away the tears in their eyes and continued to invest in the next failure investigation.

The tears of astronauts will only shed for the joy of victory on the day of success, not when they encounter setbacks!

…………

Long Country,

The scientific research department is still that top-secret meeting room.

“Failed?”

Ji Chengtian, Minister of Science and Technology of Longguo, thumped the conference table heavily, and said unwillingly.

According to the news just received, the first flight experiment of the Longguo Aerospace’s “Zhuang 8” carrier rocket project ended in failure.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the conference room was also depressed. The big guys in the Ministry of Science and Technology stared at the conference table in front of them in a daze. Obviously, they were deeply touched by this failure.



“Old Li, has the cause of the malfunction been investigated?”

After pondering for a while, Ji Chengtian turned to look at his deputy Li Wei, and asked in a low tone.

“It is said that… it is because the propulsion of the engine is insufficient to separate the rocket body from the first cosmic speed, which causes the’Zhuangba’ carrier rocket to fall as a whole and then disintegrate!”

As soon as Li Wei’s voice fell, a few gritted teeth appeared in the conference room.

“It’s the engine again!”

I saw that all the leaders of the science and technology department present here were unwilling, and still a little bit aggrieved in their unwillingness.

“Comrades, aerospace engines and aerospace thrusters have always been a thorn in our hearts! When will this thorn be pulled out, my Dragon Kingdom can usher in a real take-off!”

Ji Chengtian looked around and said with a little bit of heartache.

With the rapid development of the Dragon Kingdom for decades, naturally more and more countries regard the Dragon Kingdom as a thorn in the eye.

Some are simply jealous of the development of the Dragon Nation, and some simply don’t want to see a powerful Dragon Nation rise above the world!

Therefore, other developed countries have not stopped the technological blockade of the Dragon Kingdom, but on the contrary, they have become more and more serious.

The reason is that the take-off of the Dragon Kingdom has made some countries that are good at conspiracy theories uneasy!

But even so, the Dragon Kingdom still walked out of the mud all over, step by step, and has now become a modern and powerful country!



However, some technological progress still needs time to settle, so naturally, space engine technology can’t be compared with those who have studied space for nearly half a century!

After Ji Chengtian finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze, as if thinking of something, then he said with a slight pity.

“It’s a pity that a space engine with controllable nuclear fusion fuel is under development. Otherwise, it might make the’Zhuang 8’plan more smoothly!”

Although Longguo is also a major aerospace country in the world, it started late after all. Although the current comprehensive strength of aerospace is similar to that of other countries, it has always been a shortcoming of Longguo Aerospace in terms of space engines.

In the past, due to lack of impetus, the Dragon Kingdom always compensated for quality with quantity.

For example, if other major aerospace countries can transport satellites or space stations into space at a time, Dragon Kingdom often first disassembles the satellites, then transports them to space in batches, and finally assembles them in space.

Although this method works, not to mention the huge cost, the waste of resources is also very alarming.

Moreover, the future aerospace trend must be a large space propulsion vehicle that can be recycled.

This is why Long Guo eagerly wants to independently develop aerospace engines with sufficient driving force.

“If the chief engineer for the research and development of controllable nuclear fusion devices is there, the development of space engines driven by controllable nuclear fusion fuel must be accelerated a lot, but it is a pity that he chose to further his studies…”

Li Wei’s expression moved, and then he added.

“Don’t bother Tang Zhenli. We are still thinking about Tang Zhenli’s rewards. We will wait until the engine is resolved…” Ji Chengtian shook his head, regarding Tang Zhenli’s controllable nuclear fusion.

Of course, it is impossible for the national level to have no rewards, but this is too important, and they are also considering it carefully.

Although controllable nuclear fusion is very tempting, as the first person to develop a controllable nuclear fusion device, his understanding of it is obviously far better than others.

But now Tang Zhenli has gone to Longke University for further study. This is a personal wish, and Ji Chengtian doesn’t want to bother for the time being.

After all, it is very rare for young people to sink their hearts after they have made achievements.

……………

Longke University,

Yandu has gradually begun to turn cold, and the campus of Longke University also carries an inexplicable sense of depression.

Tang Zhenli began his own research on planetary engines on the second day after meeting Wu Shaoying.

Teacher’s apartment,

Tang Zhenli nodded slightly in his heart when he looked at the dense illusion plans and data on his tablet. The time has come.

Grabbing a pure black coat, Tang Zhenli walked straight out of his apartment and walked towards the administration building of Longke University.

After a while,

director’s office,

Fu Zhiyuan looked at Tang Zhenli from afar with a slight surprise in his heart.

It seems that Xiao Tang has adapted well at Longke University, otherwise he wouldn’t have been here for such a long time to come to me, but he thought so in his heart, but his mouth was a different set of rhetoric.

“Xiao Tang, what’s the dissatisfaction?”

“No, um, how should I say, today I came here to apply for a laboratory for my future research!”

Tang Zhenli pondered, and finally told Fu Zhiyuan of today’s purpose.

Fu Zhiyuan’s heart jumped when he heard this, and he was waiting for this day.

“Come here, here finally!”

With joy in his heart, he immediately said to Tang Zhenli with a smile on his face.

“Yes, I will arrange for you one of the top independent laboratories of LongTech University for you to study alone!”

“Thank you!”

Tang Zhenli nodded slightly when he heard the words, said to Fu Zhiyuan with a smile, and then left the dean’s office on his own.

Fu Zhiyuan looked at this unique young man with a trace of appreciation in his heart and said to himself.

“Obviously he is a young man, but he always shows a calm temperament…”
