Chapter 744 Giant Creation Lover

Xichang, Qingshan Airport.

After the driver came out, he looked around: "Such a small airport with only one building?"

It feels worse than the train station in a small county town.

Zhou Rui adjusted his baseball cap and said:

"If there is no rocket launch center here, there may not be an airport. This is for both military and civilian use. Although the terminal is small, the runway is of the highest quality."

It seems to be related to the transportation needs of the rocket launch base.

Although they are both in Sichuan Province, Xichang and Rongcheng are completely different. The population is even less than one million. Why do they need a large terminal?

The culture, food, and population structure are also very different.

In other words, it is more appropriate to call this place Liangshan area.

In the deserted airport, the other members of the "Yutu Group" arrived on the same flight as them, including Zhang Xianpeng and Hong Anran.

Compared with Zhou Rui and the others, it is obviously not the first time for the others to come here, so it is not so fresh.

Originally, he could only take the train or high-speed rail because of the "Toolbox 0", because that thing is afraid of bumps, and he is even more afraid of the baggage porters messing around.

However, this time, the "Toolbox 0" was packed and sent away with the Yutu as a precision equipment, so he was able to take the plane with the main force.

While waiting for the luggage, Zhou Rui was bored and flipping through his phone.

There was nothing important, only one piece of information, from Gan Yuan:

The first batch of aid projects of the "Ryukyu Reconstruction Investment Committee", six special edition "Agricultural God" and corresponding pesticides and fertilizers have been prepared, and are expected to be loaded and crossed the sea this week.

There are also many Kaiming Intelligent employees who are about to set off together, half of whom are real employees of "technical guidance" and half are fake employees of "security", and there are more members of the "Reconstruction Investment Committee".

There is basically no turning back for the self-Z over there. Even if "Gu Zhixiong" regrets now, public opinion will overthrow him and replace him with someone to promote the self-Z. Some actions can already be started.

These are all things that have been discussed, so Zhou Rui replied "OK".

Zhou Rui suddenly remembered that he didn't know how Lu Xubo's training was going.

I can ask him later.

Finally, Zhou Rui looked at the news and noticed something interesting.

"Zhu City's top scorer after skipping a grade"

He can still be the top scorer after skipping a grade, which is as impressive as his brother in the past.

Just as he was about to click in to take a look, his luggage had been transferred to him, so Zhou Rui put away his phone.

After taking the luggage, people from the launch base came to pick them up. The group got on the bus and headed for the launch base in the mountains.

Xichang Base is one of the four major rocket bases in China.

Brackets - refers to space rockets. Don't ask where the rockets launched to the ground are launched.

At present, the Wenchang Base in Qiong Province has not yet been completed. This is the launch center with the lowest latitude in China. At the same time, it has the characteristics of high altitude, which can save fuel to the greatest extent and has unique conditions.

Of course, this high altitude is relatively high, with an average of about 1,800 meters. Launching a rocket is a systematic work, and weather, earthquakes, railways, and airplanes must be considered.

It is not a brainless choice of high altitude and low latitude.

Otherwise, they could just launch directly from Mount Everest, saving a lot of fuel money.

If Taiyi Tiangong really wants to build a rocket base in Ryukyu, these factors must be considered, especially transportation. A "deepwater port" is a must, and the launch base must be close to the deepwater port.

Xichang has a population of less than one million, but it has its own airport and high-speed rail station, which is basically due to the existence of the launch base.

So what Zhou Rui said to "Gu Zhixiong" that it can boost the local economy is not nonsense.

This time Zhou Rui came to Xichang as a member of the "Yutu Group" and had a lot to learn.

The base is only more than 50 kilometers away from the airport in a straight line, but the mountain road is rugged and constantly climbing. The bus has been shaking for almost two hours and still hasn't arrived.

In the car, Hong Anran saw Zhou Rui staring out the window in a daze, thinking that this big boss was not used to riding a bus, and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, you squeezed into the bus with us."

Zhou Rui turned around and said: "Nothing, I'm just curious about the infrastructure here, it's really good."

The population is not even as good as the county towns in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, but the roads are unusually wide, and the road and bridge maintenance is in excellent condition, probably thanks to the launch base.

I thought it was a peaceful journey, but I didn't expect there would be a little episode on the road

When it was about ten kilometers away from the destination, the traffic police stopped the bus at a certain intersection that could not be bypassed.

But everyone, including Zhou Rui, was not surprised, because the reason for the "interception" could be seen with the naked eye.

Not far away, a huge special truck was transporting rocket parts.

It was seven or eight meters long, white all over, with four huge tail nozzles distributed in a rectangular shape at the tail end, and the diameter of each was close to two meters.

The diameter of the entire component was close to five meters, and it was nearly two stories high when lying horizontally.

Zhou Rui recognized it at a glance. This was the first stage of the Long March 3B enhanced rocket, and it was the tail end.

Che Gan looked up and murmured, "This is a much bigger Habby aircraft engine!"

Zhou Rui squinted his eyes unconsciously, with a hint of excitement.

He likes huge creations.

He also likes to explore new areas.

Even the vehicle that transports rocket parts is a special model he has never seen before, a special vehicle.

Interesting

But he was not in a hurry to touch it or take a look, because he would be able to participate in all these things later.

The car was moving very slowly, and its speed on the curve was even slower than that of an old lady taking a walk, but no one urged it.

It was not until more than ten minutes later that the transport vehicle entered other sections of the road and the bus continued to move forward.

Even though they went their separate ways, the driver kept clinging to the car window until he could no longer see the big guy.

"Boss, can we enter the launch tower to participate in the assembly?"

As the saying goes, when you get something, you want more. Before, I felt that being able to play with the "Yutu" was already a great achievement, and now the driver wanted to be more "promising".

Zhou Rui smiled slightly: "I'm here, what do you think?"

After a while, the bus finally drove into the Xichang Launch Base.

The buildings here are not so dense. In addition to two very conspicuous "launch towers" that are nearly 100 meters high, there are only four or five large low-structure buildings.

And due to work needs, there is not much vegetation in the base, and there are no trees.

The car stopped in front of the office building, and a group of people were already standing outside.

The leader was Director Sun of the Space Administration.

"Mr. Zhou! Welcome to Xichang Base!"

As the most important mission of the space agency this year and a launch destined to go down in history, he will definitely come to the Chang'e 3 project.

When Zhou Rui was in Beijing North before, he was already here.

When he heard that Zhou Rui had arrived, he naturally came out to greet him.

Zhou Rui shook his hand: "Hello, Director Sun, I'm here to learn from you."

Director Sun smiled and said: "It's time to come and take a look. After all, these are things that will be used by Tai Tiangong in the future!"
