Chapter 334 A Regrettable Accident
“Don’t worry, I won’t joke about this casually.”
After receiving Pierce’s reply, members of the organization discussed this got up.
"According to Pierce, this 'hair' material has properties and will quickly lose its high-strength properties at high temperatures. We will immediately ask our scientists to comment on Pierce's words Let’s verify it.”
Hearing this statement, the people in the organization were a little surprised. After all, this material is their secret weapon, but they did not expect that there would be such a flaw.
But since this conclusion comes from Kim Pierce, they also understand that this conclusion is most likely true.
Kim Pierce is a rising star in materials science in America, and at this time, he is unlikely to lie.
Even if the organization would not kill Pierce's mother easily, lying like this would undoubtedly be a very risky move for Pierce.
What’s more, the authenticity of this conclusion can be confirmed soon. Even if Pierce wants to delay for some time, he will choose some other excuses.
It didn’t take long for them to receive a reply from their materials science expert.
"After our verification, the strength of this 'hair' material did decrease under high temperature conditions. However, we feel that this is not a material defect, because under normal circumstances, it It will not reach such a high temperature. "
"So, what Kim Pierce said is indeed true? Then if it is not a defect of this material, it is at least a defect of this material. Weakness."
Since Pierce did not lie, they would naturally choose to continue to place their hopes on Pierce. After all, Pierce is the person they can control and the most trusted person in Ning Chen.
"Sir, I suggest that we can continue to send people to send the 'hair' to Xia Kingdom. This time, just ask Pierce to pay attention not to put the hair close to the high temperature environment. In addition, we do not There is no better plan.”
“That’s right, let’s send another person to deliver the goods. Also, let Pierce be prepared so that nothing like last time happens again. ”
Immediately, they contacted Pierce again and informed him of their subsequent plans.
What they didn't expect was that this time Pierce did not agree to their plan.
"The sudden suspension of this operation has made Ning Chen have some doubts about me. I suggest that we should not continue to act according to the original plan. In addition, I have a better plan. "
"What plan?"
"Before I talk about this plan, I want to make sure that my mother is safe."
"Of course there is no problem. As long as you can help us accomplish our goals, I guarantee that your mother is safe, and we will try our best to bring you back as soon as possible."
At Pierce's request, the organization A video of his mother was sent to Pierce, who carefully checked to ensure his mother was still safe.
Pierce also believes that as long as he is still valuable, they will not hurt his mother casually.
"Pierce, can you tell me your plan now?"
"Yes. Do you know that Star Technology is currently studying aerospace-related projects?"
"Yes, we know about this. But does this have anything to do with your plan?"
"One thing you may not know is that Ning Chen plans to go into space himself. , to carry out a manned space exploration mission.”
After hearing Pierce’s words, the people in the organization looked shocked.
It has never happened before that one of the world's top scientists personally went to space to carry out a manned space exploration mission.
Although they didn't know the reason why Ning Chen did this, they all understood that if the news was true, then this would undoubtedly be their best opportunity to attack Ning Chen.
In space, aircraft are actually very fragile. The reason why there is no mutual attack is because everyone has concerns about this and maintains a relatively harmonious state.
But if they can take this opportunity to get rid of Ning Chen, this matter is completely worth the risk.
"Pierce, can you guarantee that the information you provided is completely true?"
"Don't worry, I don't need to joke with you about this matter. It's better to go to space Ning Chen has always been a dream. After being able to achieve this goal, Ning Chen is trying to fulfill this dream..."
Listening to Pierce's explanation, they also felt that Ning Chen's move was understandable. .
Many people have had such a dream, but Ning Chen is one of the very few people in the world who is really capable of realizing this dream.
"Okay, Pierce, then we will suspend the 'Hairline' plan and implement it according to the plan you provided. Pierce, you don't need to take any direct actions in the future, you just need to provide us with some information at any time. Information is enough. You can rest assured that we will ensure your mother's safety."
"Well, we will contact you at any time."
After finishing this communication, The mood of the members of the organization has changed like a roller coaster.
The failure of this plan made them very disappointed. After all, this was their last trump card. If even this plan failed, it would be difficult for them to think of any other better method.
But the latest information Pierce provided them gave them renewed hope.
Immediately, they formulated a specific plan based on this new plan.
"If Ning Chen really wants to personally carry out the space mission, then we have many ways to achieve our goal. Of course, it is best not to make it too obvious, otherwise, I am afraid it will cause some Serious consequences. ”
If a direct attack is carried out with weapons such as missiles, such a move is basically equivalent to a declaration of war. Even if Ning Chen can be eliminated, it will be a loss more than the gain.
They must use some better reasons to make this an accident.
"Sir, I think we can use some abandoned satellites to complete our plan. The trajectory of abandoned satellites is unpredictable. If it accidentally hits the aircraft that Ning Chen is riding, it will only be a disaster. It’s a pity and surprise.”
Hearing this person’s words, the leader of the organization couldn’t help but smile.
"Yes...then just follow this plan. Contact the Aeronautics and Space Administration immediately to help us plan this operation."
How feasible is this plan in the end? High, and the Aeronautics and Space Administration needs to conduct a more professional assessment. After all, this requires very precise strike accuracy. A slightly larger deviation will lead to the failure of the operation.
Immediately, they contacted the American Aeronautics and Space Administration and explained their ideas. Speaking of which, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration does not want to accept such a mission because it may have great negative consequences.
However, due to pressure from the FBI, they had to obey the order and began to study the feasibility of this plan.
Based on the current capabilities of the Aeronautics and Space Administration, if the opponent is not prepared, the accuracy of such a strike will still be relatively high.
Although they are using obsolete satellites, this does not mean that these satellites have lost their role. On the contrary, these satellites can basically still be used, but they need to be replaced because of their age. A newer satellite.
As long as the opponent's operation plan can be obtained, the success rate of the operation can reach more than 90%.
The organization was very pleased with the response received from the Aerospace Administration.
"Okay! Then we will act according to Pierce's plan. According to the information we have obtained, Star Technology's first manned space mission will not be particularly complicated, and the scope of the mission will be relatively close to the surface. Nearby. In this way, we can achieve our goal with a high probability. "
Using abandoned satellites to complete the plan, although their true purpose will be known later, at least this will be nothing. The matter of evidence.
This can minimize the impact of the matter, at least on the surface, and will not cause a direct result of breaking the skin.
“Next, let’s wait for Pierce to provide us with more inside information. I hope that Ning Chen will really carry out the space mission himself. This is Ning Chen’s dream, and it is also our dream.”
...
After the mysterious thread incident ended, Ning Chen did not take it too seriously, but continued to focus on the aerospace project.
This can help Ning Chen complete the system task, and at the same time, he can use the trick to rescue Pierce's mother safely.
Ning Chen has informed Yue Jiafeng of his plan. Although Yue Jiafeng feels that Ning Chen’s plan is a bit dangerous, he will still cooperate to help Ning Chen complete the plan and arrange for our people to be in Milician when necessary. time to help Ning Chen complete the plan.
As for Kim Pierce, Ning Chen no longer worries too much.
After experiencing this incident, Pierce has understood that acting in accordance with the requirements of the organization is an unworkable approach.
The only way to ensure the safety of himself and his mother is to completely obey Ning Chen's arrangements, so Ning Chen is not worried about what other ideas Pierce will have.
On this day, Ning Chen called Pierce to his office.
"Teacher Ning, are you looking for me?"
"Yes, I have a new project that I want to study with you. Due to the secretive nature of this project, except for the two of us, , and no third person can participate in this project.”
Pierce was a little surprised when he heard Ning Chen's words.
This is the first time that Ning Chen has told himself such a secret research project. As an international student, it is difficult for him to receive such treatment.
What's more, a major event happened before, and Pierce was already very grateful that Ning Chen could let go of the past. How could he have thought that Ning Chen would retaliate with kindness.
“Teacher Ning, can I ask what the project is?”
“It’s the special silk thread material we came into contact with before. I hope to be able to conduct more specific research on this material. Research on it, and solve some of its shortcomings based on its properties..."
Hearing Ning Chen's words, Pierce was a little confused. Was Ning Chen testing himself with these words, or did he really want to study this project.
"Teacher Ning...aren't you a little worried that if I solve the defects of this material, will you...be at risk to your safety?"
Seeing Pierce worried Ning Chen smiled and said:
"If I was worried, I wouldn't tell you anything about this. Don't worry, Pierce, just conduct the experiment as I asked. This experiment If successful, it will not only be a valuable material science result, but may also be of great help to our future plans..."
After letting Pierce's mood stabilize, Ning Chen asked Pierce Telling some of his thoughts about this nanowire material.
In fact, Ning Chen already has some methods to improve the properties of this substance, but these ideas need to be verified experimentally.
Now Ning Chen does not have time to conduct these experiments anymore, and Pierce is the most suitable person to complete this experiment.
On the one hand, Pierce is capable enough to complete experiments of this level. On the other hand, Pierce is one of the few people who knows that this material exists.
As for the relationship between this research and his own plan, Ning Chen was not in a hurry to tell Pierce right away.
"Okay, Teacher Ning, I will conduct the experiment according to your requirements."
After listening to Ning Chen's ideas, Pierce realized that Ning Chen's improvement plans were very feasible.
After returning to his dormitory, Pierce compiled the plan for this experiment.
Although Ning Chen has given his general direction, the specific experimental plan still needs to be completed by Pierce himself.
While Pierce was thinking about the specific plan for the experiment, Pierce suddenly figured out something.
"Teacher Ning...could he want to use the improved nanowire material to resist the organization's attacks? What a bold plan!"
Thinking of this possibility, Pierce admired Ning Chen even more.
……
After days of hard work, Xingchen Technology’s aerospace team has successfully processed the first rocket engine designed by Ning Chen.
After preliminary testing, the performance of this rocket engine is basically the same as the requirements in Ningchen’s design plan.
Ning Chen was also quite satisfied with this engine after testing it through Xiaozhi's information sensing function.
However, none of these tests are absolutely convincing. To prove that this transmitter is sufficient to be used as a rocket engine, test runs are an essential procedure.
Now, the construction work of Xingchen Technology’s rocket engine test bench has been completed, and we are just waiting to officially start the engine test run.
