Chapter 299 This Is Even Better than Before
"It seems that Bincheng Shipyard wants me to go to the site to see how this aircraft carrier is being built." Ning Chenxin said.
In fact, according to the system's notification of mission completion, Ning Chen basically knew that the construction of this aircraft carrier must be excellent.
Because the system has very high requirements for task completion, if the system requirements cannot be completed well, the system will not even give a task completion assessment at all.
And because of the experience in manufacturing Zero-One, we are actually very familiar with the construction of aircraft carriers, but we don’t have that much experience in issues related to nuclear power plants.
But after research on land-based small nuclear reactors, this most difficult problem has been solved very well.
Ning Chen would naturally accept the invitation from Bincheng Shipyard and couldn't wait to rush to the scene as soon as possible.
After arranging some work in the laboratory and the company, Ning Chen immediately contacted Bincheng Shipyard and said that he would go to Bincheng Shipyard in the near future.
Bincheng Shipyard also attached great importance to Ning Chen's arrival and quickly arranged the trip for Ning Chen so that Ning Chen did not need to worry about anything other than work.
Arriving at Bincheng Shipyard smoothly, Ning Chen met his old friend Luo Yi.
"Professor Luo, long time no see."
"Professor Ning, welcome to Bincheng Shipyard again!"
Luo Yi changed his name for Ning Chen, from "Teacher Ning" to "Professor Ning" now. It seemed that he already knew about Ning Chen's promotion of professional title.
Ning Chen had an indifferent attitude towards the title. What made Ning Chen even more concerned was when he would be able to see the nuclear aircraft carrier that had been completed.
After chatting with Luo Yi for a few words, Ning Chen stopped being polite to Luo Yi and directly asked the question he wanted to ask.
"Professor Luo, I don't know yet. What is the main purpose of inviting me to Bincheng Shipyard this time?"
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Luo Yi said somewhat mysteriously:
"Professor Ning, because this matter is too confidential, please forgive us for not being able to explain it clearly to you before."
"Professor Luo, of course I understand this. Now, can I know about this?"
"This is natural, Professor Ning, I will tell you the whole story now."
Next, Luo Yi told Ning Chen some recent events at the Bincheng Shipyard.
As expected by Ning Chen, during this period, Bincheng Shipyard had indeed been intensively constructing the aircraft carrier.
But Ning Chen didn't expect that during this period, they not only built one aircraft carrier, but also completed the construction of two aircraft carriers.
"Professor Luo, are you saying that we completed the construction of two aircraft carriers in such a short period of time?"
"Yes, this incident is indeed incredible, but it is what really happened. Because the two aircraft carriers you designed are very excellent and each has its own strengths, we finally decided to start the construction of these two aircraft carriers at the same time. …”
From Luo Yi's story, Ning Chen learned that these tasks were not completed by Bincheng Shipyard itself, but were completed with the help of other shipyards.
Even so, the results are shocking enough.
Even if this news is accidentally leaked, I am afraid it will be difficult for anyone to really believe that we can complete the construction of two aircraft carriers within two years of completing the construction of 001.
When the “infrastructure maniac” gets serious, it seems like there’s nothing he can’t do.
"Professor Ning, after the construction of these two aircraft carriers was completed, we conducted a detailed test of the performance of the aircraft carriers, and their performance was fully in line with our expectations. Of course, because Professor Ning, you are the designer of these two aircraft carriers , so we still hope that you can re-evaluate the performance of these two aircraft carriers to see if they are fully consistent with your previous design."
Listening to Luo Yi's words, Ning Chen didn't feel any obvious surprise.
Since these two aircraft carriers were designed by Ning Chen, when their construction is completed, it is naturally more appropriate for Ning Chen to personally inspect them.
Before that, Ning Chen was fully prepared and would definitely use his own power to inspect the two aircraft carriers in the most serious and detailed manner.
"Fortunately, I brought Xiaozhi with me before I came here. With Xiaozhi here, it will be much easier for me to do the test."
Xiaozhi has many very powerful abilities, especially the ability to perceive information. He can understand all kinds of information around him without relying on any detection methods.
After the information notification ability has been upgraded, this ability has become more and more powerful, and you can clearly perceive the information you want to obtain from a longer distance.
"Professor Luo, please take me to where the aircraft carrier is parked."
"Okay, Professor Ning, please come with me."
In Ning Chen's guess, the two aircraft carriers should not be parked directly on the beach, at least not directly and without cover.
Otherwise, with today's powerful satellite technology, the existence of an aircraft carrier can be easily identified through satellites, which does not meet the requirements for confidentiality before the aircraft carrier is officially released.
Even if it is difficult to maintain strict confidentiality because of the large scale of the aircraft carrier, at least necessary confidentiality work still needs to be carried out.
As expected by Ning Chen, the aircraft carrier did not park directly on the beach without any cover.
"Professor Ning, there is currently only this nuclear-powered aircraft carrier named 003. It is currently parked at Bincheng Shipyard, and the other conventionally powered aircraft carrier is in another location. Here is our 003 nuclear Powered aircraft carrier..."
Following Luo Yi's guidance, Ning Chen came to a seemingly secret location.
This is not strictly a seaside, but a secret base similar to an underground base. The only difference from a normal underground base is that there is no real ground here, but is completely covered with sea water.
"I never expected that Bincheng Shipyard would have such a location. This is really an incredible underground space!"
Ning Chen was also very surprised when he saw the environment here.
In order to be able to accommodate an aircraft carrier with a displacement of 100,000 tons, this underground space is extremely huge, making people feel a sense of awe when looking at it.
"This is an underground secret base that we have prepared long ago. Even with the most advanced satellite technology, it is impossible to see the internal situation through the materials above. Of course, there is still a way to complete various tests and training here. A lot of restrictions and difficulties.”
Although the space here is very huge, after parking a huge aircraft carrier, the remaining space is still relatively small, making it difficult for the aircraft carrier to operate at high power.
It is still very difficult to complete various tests without sailing the aircraft carrier into the sea.
Ning Chen first observed the nuclear aircraft carrier with the naked eye. Just by observing it with the naked eye, Ning Chen still felt very shocked.
"This is the nuclear aircraft carrier I imagined... Being able to build it is really a great achievement."
Boarding the deck of this nuclear aircraft carrier, Ning Chen felt a strong sense of heaviness and security.
The steel material used in this nuclear aircraft carrier is a new type of steel material developed by Ning Chen and other members of the laboratory. It has better properties in many aspects.
"It's time for Xiaozhi to appear."
At this time, Ning Chen said silently in his heart:
"Ash Ketchum!"
【Here I am, Master】
"Enable information perception and detect the surrounding situation."
[Okay, Master, Xiaozhi has turned on the ability to perceive information]
In an instant, Ning Chen felt that all the data about the surrounding environment clearly appeared in his brain.
Different from the initial information perception ability, after experiencing continuous upgrades, Xiaozhi's information perception has become much stronger.
Now Xiaozhi can not only detect information within a wider range, but also has a strong ability to penetrate walls. Even steel plates tens of centimeters thick can be penetrated very easily.
This allowed Ning Chen to very clearly detect various information about the nuclear aircraft carrier, even more accurately and conveniently than using tools.
"Yes... the processing quality of this kind of steel material is not even at the laboratory processing level. The dimensions of various positions are also accurate to the millimeter level."
For a giant object that is hundreds of meters long, this level of accuracy is very terrifying. No matter which part is taken out individually, it is difficult to find any flaws.
After walking around the deck of Zero Zero Three, Ning Chen was very satisfied with the information he received.
"Professor Luo, this aircraft carrier is indeed perfectly built. Especially in terms of steel materials, the quality has really reached the level of excellence..."
Luo Yi was a little surprised by Ning Chen's reaction. After all, Ning Chen was able to come to such a conclusion just by walking around on the aircraft carrier deck.
"Professor Ning, how do you see that the quality of these steel materials is so outstanding?"
Naturally, Ning Chen couldn't answer. He relied on Xiaozhi's special ability to feel this information.
However, Ning Chen did not show any comfort and said calmly:
"This steel material was developed by our laboratory. I am very familiar with it. Just by stepping on it, I know its quality."
Ning Chen's words seemed a bit mysterious, but Luo Yi knew that what Ning Chen said was indeed the truth.
"Professor Ning, you are really amazing. The quality of these steel materials is indeed excellent, far exceeding any other steel materials we know. We are also very demanding during the processing of materials. We must We must ensure that every steel plate used on the aircraft carrier is the best material."
After understanding the situation on the deck, Ning Chen said:
"Professor Luo, please take me to see the inside of Zero Zero Three."
"Okay, Professor Ning, we're going down now."
Although Xiaozhi's information perception ability has now reached D level, he is still unable to perceive all the information of the entire aircraft carrier on the deck.
Next, under Luo Yi's guidance, Ning Chen arrived at the aircraft carrier's interior islands, hangar, power system, weapon system, accommodation cabin, nuclear power plant and other locations.
What makes Ning Chen excited is that the internal construction of this aircraft carrier is also very good. The construction in many places is even more careful than the construction on the deck.
What concerned Ning Chen the most was the aircraft carrier's nuclear power plant.
This was also a branch project that Ning Chen participated in. When he was in Qiong Province, Ning Chen left Qiong Province with confidence after helping the project team solve the difficult problems in the project.
Through Xiaozhi's information, Ning Chen was somewhat surprised to find that the nuclear power device carried by Zero Zero Three was even more outstanding than what Ning Chen had seen in Qiong Province before.
After Ning Chen left Qiong Province, members of the project team continued to optimize the onshore nuclear reactor, and this resulted in the final version of the nuclear power device.
Ning Chen even had a feeling that the nuclear power plant of this aircraft carrier might be more powerful than Milician's.
"Professor Luo, can you give Zero Zero Three a trial run now? In this case, I can feel its status more clearly."
After all, many things cannot be measured in a static state, and Ning Chen also wanted to feel the state of the aircraft carrier when it was operating.
Hearing Ning Chen's words, Luo Yi hesitated for a moment, and then replied:
"Professor Ning, the trial operation of an aircraft carrier requires a lot of procedures. I still need to apply for it."
"I understand. There's no rush. I'll just trouble Professor Luo."
Immediately, Luo Yi made a phone call and applied for the trial operation of the aircraft carrier.
While waiting, Ning Chen continued to walk around inside the aircraft carrier in order to obtain various detailed data.
After a while, Luo Yi finally received the reply message from above.
"Professor Ning, we are ready to start the trial operation of the aircraft carrier. However, during the trial operation, we can only turn on the power system and cannot move the aircraft carrier yet."
The reason why Luo Yi was able to get a reply so quickly was mainly because Ning Chen was here this time, and Ning Chen's evaluation of the aircraft carrier was also valued internally.
The reason why the power system can only be turned on but not the aircraft carrier cannot be moved is because the underground space is relatively limited and it is difficult to accurately control the movement of the aircraft carrier.
Such a test still needs to wait until the aircraft carrier is officially launched into the sea before it can be carried out.
Ning Chen understood these requirements very well, nodded quickly and said:
"Just turning on the power system is enough. This is enough for me to better understand the situation of this aircraft carrier."
Ning Chen and Luo Yi came to the aircraft carrier's control room together, and immediately, the aircraft carrier's commander turned on the aircraft carrier's nuclear power system.
In an instant, Ning Chen felt that the aircraft carrier was shaking slightly.
