Chapter 119 Where is the journey?

Chapter 119 Where is the journey?

"Come on, come on, the boss will do it for you."

Chen Chen was too lazy to explain and couldn't explain clearly, so he simply shut up Cao Zihua manually.

Cao Zihua was also very knowledgeable, waving his hands repeatedly and not asking any more questions.

You can’t do anything in that position.

Even though the little boss seems to be indifferent all day long, in fact, the pressure in that position is quite high.

On the one hand, Party A has a tailwind and has to take care of other people’s needs.

On one end is his own company. There are so many companies now that Cao Zihua can’t even name them all.

On the other end are Zhang Mingrui and other old men.

The little boss is just a wifi. Anyone who passes by has to use it, which is a lot of worry.

Especially after the company's salary increases recently, all employees under Chendun are respected, except for the small boss, who is still like a cow.

I was in Qianjiang in the morning, in the capital in the afternoon, and at the airport in the middle of the night. I was as tired as my third grandson.

Thinking of this, Cao Zihua still felt a little distressed.

“Have you eaten?”

“No.”

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat something good."

Hearing this, Chen Chen looked like an old man on the subway with his mobile phone, and thought to himself, it's so windy today, will Cao Zihua treat him?

He said with nothing, "No, the high-speed train will take off in an hour. I have to go to Xijing to find Xie Chaowen."

"Tsk, so busy?"

"The power aspect is crucial. time, I have to go and see.”

"I have to say, at first I thought you, little boss, were born in Rome, but later I found out that you were born with a cow and a horse."

Chen Chen was stunned for half a second, and then said: "I'll give you a look at my bank account when you have time." Account, you know who is the best, the balance is longer than your life."

"That's not much, I'll show it to you tomorrow."

"Hold it. Come on, work hard, the boss drives a Bentley.”

Farewell to Cao Zihua.

Chen Chen rushed to the high-speed rail station in a hurry.

There were sparks and lightning all the way, but it turned out that we were still a few minutes late and the ticket gate was closed.

After lying on the spot for a few times, he obediently took out his mobile phone and silently booked the next trip in forty minutes.

“I really need a full-time driver.”

Because of taxis, similar incidents of missed flights and buses have happened not only once but twice.

Last time I was rushing to Qianjiang Airport, I met a bad driver who insisted on charging the toll for two round trips. He said that he might not be able to attract customers when he came back.

After talking for a long time, he still stopped halfway and asked Chen Chen to get off, saying that he could hire a driver himself.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

"Hire it."

Chen Chen took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qin Xiang, asking her to arrange it as soon as possible. The kind that drives a thief.

Then I found a seat in the waiting hall and sat down.

It didn't matter that he sat down. He just felt like there was a black hole behind him, as if someone was watching him.

"Mr. Chen! Long time no see! Don't a big boss like you fly in business class?"

Zheng Yucun walked around from the seat in the back row. That row was all black and white. Middle-aged people in well-dressed clothes.

“Long time no see.”

After Chen Chen said hello, he raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Yucun and his companions.

I can see it.

They probably didn't wear military uniforms to keep a low profile.

But actually it is better to wear a military uniform.

A whole row of executive jackets and white shirts, the more eye-catching they become.

"Where are you going?"

Chen Chen pointed to ticket gate 14: "Xijing."

"We are too, we just came out from Rongfei and are going to Xijing."

After Zheng Yucun finished speaking, he originally wanted to sit with Chen Chen.

But there were no empty seats around Chen Chen, so he pointed to the back and asked Chen Chen to sit in a row with them.

Chen Chen could only obey his orders, picked up his backpack and followed Zheng Yucun back.

He thought about the starting and arriving places of Zhengyu Village.

Rongcheng to Xijing.

Two aviation cities.

He can already guess some clues.

"Rong flew to Xijing to work on the aircraft?"

"Yes, aviation matters."

Zheng Yucun took a look around and made sure there was no one waiting. He said a few more words.

“I used to be in a project team, mainly doing aerospace engineering work, and today’s trip is the end.”

Zheng Yucun then introduced Chen Chen to his colleagues.

The suffixes are basically professor, director, etc., but there is no introduction to the specific unit from which they come.

I think it may be due to confidentiality regulations.

Then Zheng Yucun pointed at Chen Chen: "This is Mr. Chen Chen, the general manager of Chendun. Although he is engaged in drones, drones also use engines. The mountains and rivers will not change. He said Maybe one day we will be able to cooperate.”

From what Zheng Yucun said, Chen Chen could tell that the people sitting here should be from the aviation port, and they are all of high rank.

Chen Chen mentally sorted out the information he had.

It is said that WS15 is undergoing small-scale trial installation. Zheng Yucun appeared at the high-speed rail station in Chengdu. It is most likely related to this incident.

But there were many people in the waiting room, so Chen Chen didn't talk much. He just chatted with Zheng Yucun about home affairs.

It wasn’t until he got on the high-speed train that most of the people in the carriage were his own, that Chen Chen spoke.

“Is there any good news about aviation?”

Zheng Yucun looked up at the people around him to make sure there was no risk, and then nodded: “There is good news, and there is bad news. .”

"Can I listen? If not, forget it." Chen Chen was very sensible.

Zheng Yucun smiled and waved his hand: "You can definitely do it. Your confidentiality level in the Science and Technology Commission is higher than mine. Do you want to hear the good and bad first?"

"The bad. "

"The bad news is that our current level is still several years behind Yingjiang."

This is not surprising."

You can say that Eagle Sauce is bad, but you can’t say that it is bad. There is still something good about aviation.

Especially after Chen Chen prepared to prepare the aviation engine module, he became more aware of this gap.

Even though he gave Xie Chaowen an extremely detailed blueprint, due to material limitations, Xie Chaowen encountered many bottlenecks.

He looked up and asked: "Where's the good news?"

"The good news is that there has been little progress in Eagle Sauce in the past few years."

Chen Chen reacted for a few seconds: "Hey...I just realized, where are you leaving Versailles?"

"Hey, within the scope of confidentiality, I can only reveal this to you."

“Our thrust has reached 18 tons, while the f119 is only 15.88. And how old is the f119?”

“After so many years, they haven’t come up with any serious thrust. The duct is less than the engine."

"The crown jewel of their industry is one less."

Chen Chen smiled and nodded: "You guys have touched the pearl almost bald. If you touch it again, all you will have is the AR15 youth version."

"What do you mean?"

"A rifle specifically sold to teenagers... …Forget it, keep talking.”

Seeing that Zheng Yucun didn’t understand, Chen Chen gave up the explanation.

I heard that he is the kind of caveman who doesn’t play with mobile phones. The only explanation is to play the piano to others.

Zheng Yucun nodded ignorantly: "Of course, we have always faced the gap squarely."

"Didn't I join the drone project later?"

"I know it too. There are also heart problems in the drone industry. "

"The engine is also a problem."

Chen Chen said: "Yes, it's an old problem, chest pain."

In the past few years, the drone industry has experienced explosive development.

Throwing a brick can kill a lot of drones.

But there are still problems.

If drones were a dish, gongbao chicken.

There are seasonings and side dishes in China, but the core raw material chicken is still lacking.

So sometimes I use cashew nuts, shrimps and the like to make up the number.

“There shouldn’t be any big problems with our internal combustion engines and piston engines, but jet engines like turbojet and turboprop still have bottlenecks.”

“I don’t know how your military building is. "

"Anyway, I build an industrial-grade aircraft, and the problem is very serious."

"The thrust-to-weight ratio is low and the fuel consumption is very high." Unfortunately, that’s all that’s left.”

Zheng Yucun has no say in the two-tailed scorpion. After all, he doesn’t understand the cross-project.

But sfnb01 is one that he has actually participated in.

The thief knows.

"Understood."

“From the information I have, the engines of military drones don’t seem to be much better.”

“I heard that there are currently small turbofan engines suitable for drones, but their performance indicators and reliability are poor. That’s great.”

“There’s a long way to go.”

“But Mr. Chen, don’t be discouraged. Give the aircraft some time, and the drone’s turbojet engine will be solved sooner or later.”

Chen Chen's eyes were bright: "Do you keep your word? Can you give me the WS15?"

"..."

Zheng Yucun smiled helplessly.

I just drew a pie, you can’t eat it on the spot.

Motivation is definitely improving.

But it must be used for large fighter jets first.

The large aviation field can only be expanded when the technology matures.

Let’s talk again.

What level is WS15?

18 tons of thrust.

Whose drone does this?

"It's useless if you want WS15, it has excess performance."

Chen Chen disagreed: "Excess performance is better than nothing. If the thrust is bigger, it will save me trouble in terms of aerodynamic shape."
< br>Zheng Yucun had seen Chendun’s design level and didn’t buy it at all: “Your aerodynamic appearance is very good, so don’t do this.” Shield has also been working on power recently..."

At the same time.

People in the back row heard a few words as the two chatted.

They all showed expressions of incomprehension.

"What is the identity of this person?"

"I don't know much about the specifics. I only know that the two-tailed scorpion seems to be caused by him."

"That's a bit Something, the Twin-tailed Scorpion can be considered the main force of the air force.”

"Yes, the most terrifying thing is that he is not part of the defense industry system, but a private enterprise."

"That's awesome! But then again, from what he means, does he want WS15?"

"Impossible, just kidding, the drone uses WS15, why can't it go up to the sky?"

"They are also working on power, I don't know what level it is?"

"It's probably a light diesel engine or something."

"At most, it's a small turbofan like the AEF100E, pushing 3 tons and 5 tons."

"That's also a ceiling for private drone companies."

"..."

Chen Chen and Zheng Yucun were chatting happily, and time passed so quickly that he thought the high-speed rail was speeding up.

The two said goodbye to each other at the station and agreed to meet again at the air show.

Zheng Yucun and the experts took a car to the northern suburbs, while Chen Chen took a taxi to the Xijing branch of Chendun Technology.

Half an hour later, Chen Chen saw Xie Chaowen.

Long time no see, Xie Chaowen naturally welcomed him warmly and organized senior engineers from the power team to greet him.

But Chen Chen did not give Xie Chaowen a chance to breathe.

After saying the polite words, we got to the point and began to comprehensively take stock of the work results of the power project.

Thank you Chaowen and the engineer in charge for standing up and introducing.

In terms of materials, Xie Chaowen has already figured out the fan blade materials, combustion chamber materials, thermal insulation coatings, etc., and the resistance is very small.

He also optimized the best casting process and received support from two research institutes.

As for the internal structure, the little boss personally handled it, especially the combustion chamber and the compression chamber. The little boss gave us the drawings, so there will be no mistakes.

Overall, the progress of the project is in line with expectations.

Under normal circumstances, the test flight version of the B22 should be able to use this engine.

Even if you calculate a little more fault tolerance, you can also change the equipment later.

The only problem is money.

Before reading Xie Chaowen's report, Chen Chen was prepared.

But after seeing the real numbers, he felt that he was less prepared.

The power thing goes from 0 to 1, which is really difficult to handle, and it looks like a bottomless pit.

Looking at Chen Chen's solemn expression, Xie Chaowen couldn't bear to say: "Little boss, my heart has been pounding."

"Go to the hospital and have a look. It may be cardiovascular disease."

Xie Chaowen: "I'm describing it as, although you have the final say in matters of money, the further down the line you go, the more uneasy you feel. The power part has already cost an entire project."

"I know."

"I mean, is it worth it?"

If Xie Chaowen was just an engineer.

He doesn’t care at all how much money he spends, as long as there are results.

But now he has been entrusted with the important task of leading Chendun's power design department, which can be regarded as the boss.

We have to start from the overall situation.

If we only consider it from the perspective of a drone project, the current configuration of the power system is really too high, which is ridiculous.

“Whether the R&D costs can really be diluted in the later period is still unknown.”

Seeing Xie Chaowen’s confidence wavering, Chen Chen also became more serious.

“We are like a computer collector now.”

“We come up with different products according to the different needs of customers.”

"Some like playing games, some like audio and video, and some like working."

"What we have to do is to create a set of machines based on the different needs of customers."

"But if you don't hold the CPU in your own hands, even if you play with peripherals such as keyboard and mouse, you will still get the same thing."

When Xie Chaowen heard these words, he thought that he was still shallow.

The little boss’s stance is too high.

According to the little boss’s idea.

Once Chendun masters the power, he will have the ability to save aircraft in minutes.

Take the most common medium-sized machine as an example.

From drawing to production, it may not take more than a few weeks.

The most important thing is that not only Chendun, but the entire drone industry will have this capability.

If other manufacturers want to accumulate aircraft, they cannot avoid Chendun.

There is no way around paying money to Chendun.

I have to say.

Some people are born to be bosses. They not only have skills, but also courage.

I feel admired just thinking about it.

Xie Chaowen couldn't help but start to imagine.

Chendun currently has outstanding airframe design capabilities in the industry, and its flight control is also top-notch in the industry.

Once you master the power, your position in the drone industry will be sealed.

Even this configuration is extremely explosive when looking at the aviation industry.

Just getting started.

When Xie Chaowen joined Chendun, he thought Chendun was just a drone manufacturer, just like Daotong and Feiniu.

Two items are available.

Chendun not only widens the gap with other companies in terms of income.

At the same time, it has also accumulated a set of excellent technical models, which ranks first in the industry.

To this day.

Chendun has even taken on its own role and won the opportunity to participate in the Pearl River Air Show.

If we can master the core technology of power...

Chendun's configuration is too luxurious and the ceiling is too high, which has exceeded Xie Chaowen's imagination.

This is my thoughts.

Xie Chaowen suddenly raised his head: "Boss, let's talk about an unrelated topic."

"Where is Chendun's goal?"

"I mean, what is our ultimate journey?"

"Is it just a drone equipment manufacturer."
