Chapter 968 It’s better to let them waste some resources
Based on Luan Wenjie’s understanding of Chang Haonan, the “slightly tilted” mentioned by the latter may not be that slight.
But these can always be discussed.
What's more, in addition to the practical series of satellites specially used for scientific exploration and technological experiments, China also has the Shenzhou spacecraft orbital module that can be used as a small satellite. In terms of mission load, it has been compared with previous years. Much more comfortable.
So, this matter was finalized.
Of course, raising the project level in the middle of the project still requires a process.
Fortunately, the hardware development phase of the Haiyang-1 satellite has ended, so it is not expected to affect the final launch window.
This report meeting was expected to last only about two hours, but ended up taking most of the day.
When Chang Haonan and Lin Senming sent away several leaders attending the meeting, it was already sunset.
In January in Beijing, it gets dark early.
"Mr. Chang."
Standing in the parking lot, Lin Senming held Chang Haonan's hand tightly with excitement on his face.
His lips moved slightly, obviously wanting to express his mood at this moment.
But in the end, I was still limited by my slightly lacking language skills.
Thousands of words turned into one sentence:
"Thank you very much..."
Everything is self-explanatory and belongs to yes——
Although Lin Senming is only the deputy chief designer of Ocean One, he also cooperates with Chang Haonan in software design Work.
But the latter is not from the aerospace system after all.
In the Fifth Academy, and even at the level of aerospace science and technology, Lin Senming is the most important young backbone in the Haiyang-1 satellite project.
Therefore, the development prospects of Ocean One, or the Ocean series satellites, will directly affect his own future and destiny.
There seems to be only half a level difference between projects led by national bureaus and projects led by ministries and commissions, but the resources and priorities they receive are completely different.
As for going one level higher...
It would have to be like setting up a separate department to take charge of manned spaceflight.
Lin Senming couldn’t even think about it.
However, for Chang Haonan, these are already commonplace
It is better to say that he is responsible, even including several major projects he has participated in, and there is no one with a lower level.
Now it's just a return to normal.
"Mr. Lin, your comrades from the Fifth Academy are responsible for the research and development of Ocean One's hardware, so the subsequent software and hardware adaptation work requires our cooperation."
Chang Haonan looked at Lin Senming who was so excited that he was speechless, and decided to break the awkward silence first.
The main reason is that the other party is holding on to me and won't let go, so being frozen like this is not an option.
"We must cooperate, we must cooperate."
Lin Senming then remembered to put down his hands, and then quickly replied:
"I really didn't expect that a report meeting , can produce such a good effect..."
Chang Haonan quickly put his arms behind his back to prevent being controlled by the opponent again:
"At the results report meeting, most of the audience below were unprofessional. They were either from other fields or simply engaged in administration. To put it bluntly, what they wanted to see was how great our results were, not why we were so good. Awesome.”
“So, the starting point is to show the achievements we have made so far in the most intuitive way. If there are really no achievements now, then try to paint a bright future... Of course, you have to have There is a way to make people believe that the prospect you mentioned exists. "
"Actually, it doesn't matter today. After all, Ocean One is a mature project that has already been established and has even come up with a future development plan. At best, it's just the icing on the cake... If you really want to say it, the two report meetings before the establishment of Project 10 and the establishment of Project 921 were the real changes in fate..."
In fact, what Chang Haonan originally wanted to say was that the aviation engine industry conference that year directly reversed the layout of the entire aviation industry in China, and even the birth of the Aviation Power Group can be regarded as one of its aftermath.
But then I thought about it and realized that although these were all truth, what I said would inevitably sound like bragging.
So he temporarily changed his words to Project 921 and Project 10...
Fortunately, Lin Senming still hadn't completely calmed down at this time, and he didn't care about the specific example Chang Haonan gave:
"Mr. Chang, it's not too early to look at the time. How about... rest for a while and have a meal in our agency canteen?"
He knew very well that if he invited the other party outside, he would definitely do it. rejected.
But even if the canteens of such large units do not have special reception areas like the Torch Group, they always have small stoves or similar configurations.
In fact, logically speaking, Chang Haonan does not reject this kind of emotional contact within a reasonable range.
In particular, his past connections were mainly in the aviation and machinery fields. As Lin Senming is the grassroots backbone of the aerospace system, there is absolutely no harm in having a good relationship with each other.
But today...
Chang Haonan raised his hand and looked at his watch:
"It seems a bit too early, it's just after four o'clock..."
He was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should go back to the office.
Not from the Torch Laboratory, but from the Aerospace Power Group.
In the past half month, because I have been busy with the contour segmentation algorithm, I have hardly paid much attention to the situation in the group.
Lin Senming looked at Chang Haonan's embarrassed look and immediately stopped insisting:
"If Mr. Chang still has something to do, then we can wait for another day. Anyway, there will be more opportunities in the future..."
"Okay."
Chang Haonan nodded:
"After the Ocean One project is successful, I will invite you to experience it in the canteen of Torch Group..."
...
This sudden decision made Chang Haonan receive a phone call from Shengjing by chance.
It was Liu Yongquan who called.
What was a bit outrageous was that after the call was connected, the other party was stunned for a moment:
"Mr. Chang?"
It seemed that Chang Haonan would not be in the office at all.
But it seems reasonable. In the recent period, almost all matters that others contact me through the group level are communicated through Zhang Liangping.
So to most people, he has indeed been "missing" for a while.
“It’s me.”
Chang Haonan took off his cotton hat and put it on the desk casually:
“Today’s call, I guess... Is the test at Snecma finished?" Chang Haonan looked at the date and thought that it had been almost a month since the other party got the test sample. Even if there was a Christmas holiday in the middle, it seemed that the results should be available.
However, it turns out that he still overestimated the French's work efficiency under normal conditions...
"That's not true. When I contacted Dr. Vesta a few days ago, he told me that he had just The resumption of work may not be completed until around the 25th."
Liu Yongquan explained:
"Actually, it is Dassault, who is stationed in Shengjing through Snecma. The staff on the other side contacted me.”
“Dassault...”
Chang Haonan was unbuttoning his coat with one hand at this time. He couldn't help but stop after hearing this answer:
"How did they find you directly?"
Although the two families The company has cooperation on the Falcon Z project, but this project is directly connected with Dassault by the Aerodynamics Headquarters. It is not like the M88 project, which has to go through the Shengfa Group one more time.
So logically speaking, even if something happens, you should not go directly to Liu Yongquan beyond his level.
“Well... I feel like it’s just a casual chat, and there is no intention of making a formal document, so it’s not convenient to contact you or other group leaders directly...”
Liu Yongquan first made some speculations, and then continued:
"Those people went around in circles with me for several times, but they never made it very clear, but they went around and around to test. Our views on India's LCA fighter jets."
"LCA..."
Chang Haonan finally took off his coat and leaned back on his chair.
The sudden mention of this unpopular model made him a little confused.
At this time, Liu Yongan added:
"In addition, they also accidentally mentioned that the Indians seemed to hope that Dassault could help them develop an upgraded model for the aircraft..."
"Huh?"
Chang Haonan immediately sat up straight:
"Is there such a thing?"
"Well...it's just that one of them mentioned a few words, and it may not be true..."
Liu Yongquan quickly explained.
“No, this is definitely not mentioned accidentally.”
Chang Haonan on the other side of the phone almost laughed out loud:
“I guess it’s Dassona I am worried that if they help the Indians develop new fighter jets, it may affect cooperation with us, so I want to judge our country’s attitude towards the LCA model through you.”
After his analysis, Liu Yongquan quickly reacted:
"If this is the case...it does make sense..."
The Dassault Aviation department is now ordered to take a look. The two projects are all tied to the Aerospace Power Group.
In this case, no matter how high the price offered by the Indians, the former will still have to weigh it.
"Then...I wonder what you mean?"
Liu Yongquan asked.
"Is this kind of thing...I am definitely not the one who can make the decision."
Chang Haonan did not give an answer immediately.
This matter involves three countries. If it is put on the line, it may affect foreign relations. Therefore, it is impossible for Chang Haonan to make a decision directly by overstepping his authority.
That is pure and simple seeking death.
After a slight pause, he changed the topic again:
"However, I will make suggestions to my superiors on this matter, just wait for my notification."
Since Chang Hao Nan had already said that, so Liu Yongquan had nothing to worry about, and immediately replied:
"Yes!"
"Attention, before I give you a clear answer, you try not to follow me. The French people talked about it again.”
Before hanging up the phone, Chang Haonan specifically asked:
"If they take the initiative to talk to you, just..."
"Just go around in circles with them, I understand!"
Liu Yongquan came directly to answer questions.
“It’s good to know.”
Chang Haonan smiled and shook his head, hung up the phone at the same time, and then took out a piece of manuscript paper from the drawer of his desk, ready to start writing a report.
If this happened to other countries, then Chang Haonan would probably really consider stopping the French.
After all, military technology transfer is more sensitive than pure arms sales.
The impact is also far-reaching.
But India…
Especially LCA...
It’s really hard to say.
Chang Haonan felt that instead of cutting off all hope of the opponent, it would be better for the opponent to continue to waste resources on this model——
The LCA in his previous life was gone until he was reborn. To truly form combat effectiveness, the subsequent improved MK1A type is also far away.
As for the heavily modified MK2 type...
It only exists in legends.
Moreover, even if the Indians on this timeline are a little more clumsy and have tinkered with LCA in advance...
It doesn't matter.
A large number of parts and raw materials for this model are imported from the West, causing the price of a "domestic" light aircraft to be comparable to that of an imported heavy aircraft.
In other words, for every additional LCA the Indians have, there will be one less Su-30MKI.
Chang Haonan can still settle this account.
Therefore, his advice was very straightforward -
Ignore those Indians and let them do whatever they want.
