Technological Hegemony

Seeing more and more files inside the cloud server, Cao Yuan's expression gradually became serious. These data and materials are all Luo Jia's painstaking research on ion thrusters. At this moment, Luo Jia is handing over the ion propulsion project to Cao Yuan without reservation.

This is really too generous. After all, scientists are human beings. Even if they don't care about money, they still like reputation.

"As expected of Mr. Luo, he is indeed an existence beyond our cognition. His reputation is like dung to him. Probably leading China to the goal of stars and seas is worthy of Mr. Luo." Cao I thought of it with adoration in my heart.

Opening one of the databases casually, Cao Yuan saw many sketches drawn by Luo Jia. Although his art skills are still poor, as long as you have enough power injection and electromagnetic physics, it is not difficult to understand the design.

The principle of the ion thruster is as follows: first ionize the propellant, then use the electric field to accelerate the ejection of the ions, form a thrust at the tail, and at the same time inject electrons into the emitted ion beam to make it electrically neutral. This step is important, if not neutral, the ions will be drawn back by the spacecraft and cause damage.

In the past, traditional ion thrusters first injected electrically neutral mercury into the ionization chamber, and also injected electrons into it, and then the electromagnetic coils around the ionization chamber accelerated the bombardment of the injected electrons, using neutral mercury atoms to create mercury ions , the mercury ions are then accelerated by an external electric field, and finally neutralized by electrons.

In the last ten years, people have used xenon instead of mercury to overcome the highly toxic effect of mercury.

Anyway, to put it simply, although the traditional scientific community knows that if you want to fly across galaxies, you must get ion propulsion, but the academic community has not had any new ideas on the design of ion thrusters. Thrusters are safer, but not at all disruptive.

In Luo Jia's first design, the interaction between the magnetic field and the electric field is used to ionize and accelerate the propulsion, replacing the original acceleration grid design, so the ionization rate of xenon gas is greatly increased.

In addition, Luo Jia also designed an ion thruster based on the Hall effect, which confines the electrons ejected from the center to the annular ionization area, allowing these electrons to accelerate under the action of the electromagnetic field, impact and ionize the xenon gas used as the propellant , so that the ionized xenon is accelerated by the electric field.

"These designs are too powerful!" Cao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help exclaiming: "I really don't know how Mr. Luo came up with these two designs, which completely overcome the shortcomings of traditional ion propulsion. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are epoch-making! It is unimaginable that Mr. Luo did all this in his spare time!"

The admiration for Luo Jia in my heart has almost reached the level of five bodies. In the field of graphene, Cao Yuan has already become a god, and the limelight is unparalleled for a while, but Luo Jia and An Ran, who really lead the company, are rare all-around players.

An Ran knows everything from mechanics to electricity, and Luo Jia is even better. No one knows how much he knows. Their abilities are beyond even Cao Yuan.

Another vice president of the company, Li Moran, who is usually low-key and abnormal, also has his own unique ability. Mo Ran's mind is delicate and steady, and he completes the work very well. Although his reputation is far behind An Ran and Luo Jia, the software produced by Xingchen Technology has an excellent reputation, stability and security.

"It's so lucky to be able to work with these truly top-notch bigwigs! I must work hard to promote this project. Otherwise, with Mr. Luo's straightforward temper, he will definitely choose nuclear pulse. In that case, the company will inevitably suffer He has to be criticized by the whole world again, hey, it is really difficult for Mr. Luo, in order to achieve his goals, he will do whatever it takes, but he is the most hated existence by female boxers and environmentalists. Throwing rotten eggs, with insulting words such as smelly men written on it." Cao Yuan thought to himself.

Ever since the establishment of the Tough Guys Group, Luo Jia has feuded with the female boxer. Who made him be a monk all over the company, and he likes to tell the truth when giving speeches. In addition, Xingchen's friends obviously defend the male compatriots, and mercilessly kill the scumbags And the green tea whore, all of these made Luo Jia a thorn in the side of female boxers.

In the past, female boxers found the place where Luo Jia’s parents lived and threw rotten eggs into the yard. On the eggshells were pictures of Luo Jia’s stinky men and single dogs, but they disappeared later. As for why they disappeared, Luo Jia also wondered. I don't know, he just mentioned something casually when he was chatting with the general.

Putting away his emotions, Cao Yuan fell into thinking, his brain was running like a crazy machine. He was also the top ten brains in the company, and he quickly figured it out. Still not up to speed.

As a typical science man and a pragmatist, Luo Jia believes that ion propulsion must reach or even exceed the speed of nuclear pulse propulsion before it can be used. After all, the universe is too big, and speed is the first priority of the aircraft.

Otherwise, the nuclear pulse propulsion is so cool, simple and rude, without nuclear fusion as a front, just throw the nuclear fission bomb into deep space, calculate the time and angle of detonation, and leave a string of bright ripples in the huge pond of the universe , push the spaceship to accelerate, and then accelerate! Burst into the unknown and deep galaxy.

Such a scene is simply stunning, isn't it!

Apart from being unfriendly and dangerous, Luo Jia couldn't find any other reasons for refusing.

...

Cao Yuan and Shen Lang joined the management team, injecting great vitality into the company's leadership. The current management team of Xingchen Technology is almost the youngest existence in the world. Most of them are under 30 years old, and there is even a 16-year-old boy.

The media and the people were all amazed, but considering that Luo Jia, the boss, is not very old, and Shen Lang is a one-in-a-kind genius, maybe age is not as important as people think. At the age of two, the prime minister is based on strength.

Soon, Xingchen Daily Chemical Group was established. It belongs to the third-level department of the company, and the superior supervisor is Xingchen Chemical. The purpose is to collect money, so the operation is relatively independent.

After Shen Lang's new official took office, he asked Luo Jia to contact the national team to acquire the only daily chemical company in Huaxia, the Shanghai Daily Chemical Group.

After years of development, Pechoin, a domestic product brand under Hudu Daily Chemical, has begun to take shape and popularity. It is too slow to build its own channels. It can also be bought.

In addition, Shen Lang also plans to buy back the Dabao brand from North American Johnson \u0026 Johnson, which focuses on the male product line, and buys the baby noodles from Henkel in Germany, which focuses on the infant product line, forming a brand headed by Pechoin, Dabao, and Haier noodles. Three major product lines.

Mergers and acquisitions are not difficult, because the company has a professional agency, the Ministry of Commerce.

The reason why Luo Jia decided to establish the Ministry of Commerce was because he felt that scientists lacked the ability to deal with businessmen and were not cunning enough, so he asked Hong Tao to recruit a large number of business elites to form this department responsible for negotiations, mergers and acquisitions, and interest exchanges.

The employees of the Ministry of Commerce are also very international. After all, before 2019, among the students studying abroad every year in our country, the proportion of studying business has always been higher than that of science and engineering.

The reality is always so cruel. It has been a fashion for many years for those who have a Ph.D. in theoretical physics to go out of school to engage in finance, get high salaries, and give up theoretical research.

The number of foreign students studying business is huge, so it is much easier for the Ministry of Commerce to recruit business elites from abroad than to dig a big cow in the field of organic chemistry like Zhang Dongning. But the science and engineering department at the headquarters complained endlessly, and there was always not enough manpower, which made everyone work overtime every day.

This situation changed suddenly in 2019. In this year, the cruel trade war began, and North America led the Western Legion to start a global siege against China.

For a moment, the Chinese people felt a great threat, and finally understood the deep malice of this world, and understood that their own nation is special, and there is no other way except for full independence and full transcendence.

So in 2019, science and engineering broke out. For the first time in 20 years, the number of people studying science and engineering abroad exceeded that of business. It seems that the whole society gradually understands the question of who is a friend and who is an enemy. It's too late.

In short, Star Technology not only has strong research and development capabilities, but also business, legal affairs, finance, and even Star Technology's cafeteria and gym are world-class. When Shen Lang proposed a merger and acquisition, Luo Jia approved it, and the Ministry of Commerce immediately took action. A special plane directly from Shanghai Take off, go to Germany, France, North America, Neon, and wantonly acquire the companies named by Shen Lang.

Some of these acquisitions are feints, and they are specially made to show commercial opponents, to let the acquired target know that Star Technology will not be hanged on a tree. If you don’t sell it, we can still buy it from others. We want to take advantage of the opportunity. That is No chance.

After handing over the merger and acquisition matters to Hong Tao, Shen Lang began to prepare the marketing plan. He spent a few days to prepare the plan, and handed it over to Luo Jia and other management for discussion during the regular meeting of the management bureau.

After reading it, everyone felt that the little guy Shen Lang was a bit ruthless. After all, there has never been a free lunch in the world, and the free one is the most expensive.
