Chapter 481 Let’s Redesign an Air-Space Fighter

Hearing Song Xiyun's question, Ning Chen answered very calmly:

"The manned landing project on Mars is not so urgent. After all, the exploration of the Mars robot has not yet been completed, and the information we can get now has not met our requirements. In addition, the most important thing is that we must first ensure that some Mars robots can be successfully brought back to the blue planet before we can start the subsequent work."

Song Xiyun nodded and said embarrassedly:

"Yes, I almost forgot about this matter. It's all because I'm too eager to go to Mars. If we can't ensure that we can successfully bring the Mars robot back, how can we guarantee that we can bring the astronauts back later?"

After all, the Mars landing project is not a one-way mission, but a round-trip mission. Even the Mars robot needs to bring some Martian soil samples back to the blue planet, instead of staying on Mars all the time.

In this regard, Ning Chen was still very cautious, and he was not really anxious to let human astronauts go to Mars immediately without testing these procedures.

"That's right, Song Xiyun, at least we have to wait until the Mars robot returns to the blue planet smoothly before we can carry out the next manned landing project on Mars. Oh... I really hope that these premonitions of mine are just some illusions, but I always feel that the situation on Mars is not as simple as I imagined."

What Ning Chen is worried about is not just the possibility of life on Mars, but some more complicated situations.

However, at least in the current situation, Ning Chen has not been able to come up with any evidence to prove this conjecture, which makes Ning Chen feel a little worried and a little fortunate.

At this time, Ning Chen suddenly remembered something, turned to look at Song Xiyun, and said to Song Xiyun:

"Song Xiyun, I think it's time for us to start the research of the aerospace fighter project. I think for the exploration of this unknown planet, we still need some more powerful weapons to sit in, even if they may not play any role in the end."

After learning about Ning Chen's idea, Song Xiyun felt a little puzzled at first, because just for a planet without any trace of life, even if the aerospace fighter was developed, it seemed that it would not have any impact on the subsequent exploration work.

But since this can alleviate Ning Chen's worries, Song Xiyun will definitely be willing to cooperate with Ning Chen's ideas and will not have any doubts about Ning Chen because of this.

"Okay, Ning Chen, we have already done some research on the aerospace fighter before, and I think the subsequent work will at least not be clueless."

Now Ning Chen and Song Xiyun can understand the design principles of the entire aerospace fighter project, and what needs to be solved are just some technical problems.

Of course, these technological problems are what Ning Chen finds more difficult, because with the current technological strength of Blue Star Civilization, it is completely unable to match the design of the aerospace fighter produced by this system.

Ning Chen stared at the design in his mind for a while, and finally made a difficult decision.

"Song Xiyun, I think we should not manufacture the aerospace fighter completely according to this design. We must find a balance between the best design and the existing technological level, so that we can achieve our goal within a limited time."

According to Ning Chen's rough analysis, it will take at least ten years or even longer for Blue Star Civilization to achieve the technological level required for this aerospace fighter, which is obviously not an acceptable result for Ning Chen.

But as long as the original aerospace fighter design can be partially modified, it is possible to find a balance between the two. On the premise of being able to process the aerospace fighter, it will not be seriously out of the existing industrial level.

After hearing Ning Chen's idea, Song Xiyun's expression was still a little hesitant. It can be seen that Song Xiyun did not think that this was a very easy thing to do.

"Ning Chen, in fact, this existing aerospace fighter plan is already very perfect. Once we change one of the details, the final effect of the aerospace fighter will be completely different from before."

Song Xiyun's meaning is very clear, because modifying this very perfect plan will undoubtedly cause a "domestic" impact.

Even with Ning Chen's ability, I am afraid that he may not be able to achieve such a goal. The final modified plan is likely to have various problems.

Ning Chen naturally had expected such a result a long time ago, and for Song Xiyun's concerns, Ning Chen did not have a lot of psychological pressure.

"Don't worry, Song Xiyun, my understanding of this aerospace fighter design is not just superficial, but I understand its design ideas from the bottom of my heart. On this basis, we are completely able to design aerospace fighters of various levels to meet our actual needs."

Ning Chen knew that the aerospace fighter provided by the system was not a basic aerospace fighter, but a very mature and advanced aerospace fighter.

Before this aerospace fighter appears, aerospace fighter technology will have gone through at least several generations of development. Therefore, it is entirely possible for Ning Chen to design some aerospace fighters with more basic functions, so as not to place too high requirements on the craftsmanship level.

Hearing what Ning Chen said, Song Xiyun was relieved a lot, knowing that Ning Chen was actually quite confident.

"Ning Chen, it's great that you think so. I will definitely work hard to help you achieve this goal!"

After making this decision, Ning Chen continued to give Song Xiyun instructions.

"Song Xiyun, you have to pay attention that this project is a highly confidential one. What I mean by 'highly confidential' is that no information can be leaked. Even if it is just the project approval or the progress of the research, It is also impossible to let any outsider know..."

In recent years, Ning Chen has rarely shown such a cautious attitude towards scientific and technological research and development results, because recently Ning Chen hopes that more people will know the results of himself and Xingchen Technology, but only keeps some technical issues confidential.

But this time, Ning Chen actually adopted a tight-knit attitude towards this project, which was enough to show that Ning Chen was vaguely aware of some possible dangers.

Although she was a little confused about Ning Chen's idea, Song Xiyun did not ask Ning Chen about the reason, but directly agreed with Ning Chen's idea.

"Okay, don't worry, Ning Chen, I will definitely not tell this secret to any outsiders. So are only the two of us involved in this project? How to solve the process problem?"

Upon hearing Song Xiyun's doubts, Ning Chen said slowly:

"Judging from the current situation, if we want to complete the design work of another version of the aerospace fighter, the capabilities of the two of us are enough. As for the technology issue, we do not need other outsiders to join in. But to solve it in another way..."

Ning Chen's words aroused Song Xiyun's curiosity, and Song Xiyun couldn't resist the temptation, and quickly asked Song Xiyun:

"Ning Chen, what exactly is this method you are talking about?"

Ning Chen just smiled and remained silent when he heard this. It wasn't until Song Xiyun could no longer hold back that Ning Chen replied:

"Song Xiyun, let's finish the design of the aerospace fighter first. After this work is completed, we will naturally know what the next plan is."

Seeing what Ning Chen said, Song Xiyun couldn't ask any more questions, so she had no choice but to agree to Ning Chen's requests.

"Okay, Ning Chen, when will we start this work?"

"Tomorrow, take a good rest and plan today. This work may not be as difficult as we imagined, but it will definitely be a new challenge. Before the project officially starts, we still have to do enough Be prepared, because the project will definitely be very hard.”

"Haha, this is nothing. Ning Chen, you know that I am the one who is least afraid of hard work. I am not as smart as you, but in terms of hard work, Ning Chen, I will never lose to you."

As Song Xiyun said herself, Song Xiyun is indeed a hardworking person. As early as when she was running at night as a student, Song Xiyun showed this trait very well.

Song Xiyun knew that it was impossible to have Ning Chen's ability. But if she wanted to get close to Ning Chen's level and provide some help to Ning Chen, she could only try her best at all times and dare not There is not even a hint of relaxation.

At this point, Ning Chen naturally did not have any worries about Song Xiyun. After asking Song Xiyun to go back and rest early, the two separated temporarily.

Early the next morning, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun arrived at Ning Chen's office on time, ready to start designing a new version of the aerospace fighter plan.

In fact, after returning yesterday, Ning Chen did not rest immediately. On the one hand, Ning Chen needed to think about how to carry out this work. On the other hand, Ning Chen also needed to explain to others about the exploration work of the Mars robot. After all, Ning Chen had to wait until Ning Chen started. After the aerospace fighter project, there is definitely no time to pay too much attention to matters on Mars.

Fortunately, the current work on Mars is relatively stable. Even if Ning Chen doesn't pay attention to the latest developments on Mars, many tasks can still be handled well by others.

It wasn't until he finished all the work that Ning Chen really dared to take a rest. Of course, such a rest time was already much earlier than normal.

Song Xiyun also wanted to help Ning Chen complete some work in advance, but because Ning Chen did not explain anything to her in advance, Song Xiyun had no choice but to rest early so that she could maintain more energy in the future.

"Song Xiyun, I already thought of some design ideas yesterday, and now I will discuss them with you. Of course, these design ideas are still far from enough. There is still a lot of work we need to do next."

Ning Chen's attitude towards Song Xiyun is very special. If it were with other people, even Ning Chen's attitude would be more easy-going, but more often he would simply hand over tasks to them, and it would be difficult for others to really participate.

But for Song Xiyun, Ning Chen fully believed in her ability to discuss with him, because overall, Song Xiyun was already the person closest to Ning Chen's abilities.

"Okay, I actually thought about it yesterday, but because many of my ideas were immature, I didn't give a particularly clear plan. In the end, I fell asleep early. Of course, my dreams were full of all kinds of things about the sky and the sky. A strange idea about fighter jets. I think I’d better give some of my own opinions within the framework you gave me.”

Listening to Ning Chen's story, Song Xiyun was also thinking about it, to see if the ideas in it were similar to his own.

This time, Ning Chen's design ideas were different from the previous ones. Due to the limitation of the craftsmanship level, Ning Chen could no longer completely focus on the final property requirements, but had to consider the existing craftsmanship level more.

This made Ning Chen somewhat inclined to directly focus on the current craftsmanship level, and then deduce the most powerful aerospace fighter they could manufacture based on this.

After listening to Ning Chen's ideas, Song Xiyun said:

"Ning Chen, with our current capabilities, can we really complete these craft manufacturing? I think each of these craft manufacturing requirements is slightly higher than our current craft level."

Song Xiyun did not doubt Ning Chen's new idea, but because of Song Xiyun's own understanding of the current craftsmanship level of Blue Star Civilization, the craftsmanship levels set by Ning Chen were indeed a lot higher.

"Yes, just like what you said, our current technological level is indeed a little bit behind the technological level I require. But I believe that when we complete this design work, our technological level will hopefully reach this requirement. After all, technological levels are constantly developing, and we can't always look at problems with the past perspective."

According to Ning Chen and Song Xiyun's expectations for the completion time of this work, this design work will definitely not be completed in a short time, and it is reasonable to leave some space for the development of industrial level.

However, Song Xiyun felt that Ning Chen did leave too much space, and it would probably take several years to achieve such progress.

However, since Ning Chen had insisted on this choice, Song Xiyun would not have any objections, so he followed Ning Chen's idea and continued to discuss.
