God-level Trader of Rebirth

Chapter 429

During lunch, Chen Weidong and Director Gu, the general in the final assembly, were eating in a small cubicle. Director Gu asked bluntly: "Mr. Chen, I ask you a question, and I hope you can answer it truthfully: your Is this aerospace plane feasible?"

"Of course it is possible!"

Chen Weidong said with an aggrieved look: "We have explained everything we should say to you. If you don't believe it, wouldn't you ask those experts?"

The general took a sip of his wine depressedly, sighed and said, "Xiao Chen, we should have believed in you and hoped that you would succeed, but those experts said it was impossible, so how do we make a decision?"

"Aerospace planes start at billions of dollars, and the research and development costs are even more bottomless. Hundreds of billions are possible. Your project has no spectrum at all. How can we make a report and approve the appropriation to you?"

"Who said we don't have a spectrum? We have done all the theoretical research and obtained the relevant technical reserves. Although we haven't made a prototype yet, but..."

"it is good--!"

The general interrupted Chen Weidong's words, and made a decision directly: "You just come up with a prototype! As long as the prototype has been tested in practice and is indeed feasible, we have a reason to apply for funding for you!"

"Prototype?" Chen Weidong looked embarrassed, as if he was very embarrassed.

The general looked at his expression and sighed in his heart. He was even more hopeless about the aerospace aircraft project of Infinity Corporation, and said forcefully: "Xiao Chen, although we believe in your company, but what you say is groundless, you If you want to get the support of the country, you have to come up with a prototype, right?"

Chen Weidong held the wine glass in his right hand, turned it gently, and did not speak.

The general stopped persuading, drinking and eating food with a sullen face, and after a while, he said quietly: "We have come all the way, it is really too difficult, even in our dreams, we want to own an aerospace plane!"

"You don't know. Yesterday, Director Gu informed me that you might have created an aerospace plane. I was so excited that I couldn't fall asleep all night. I kept giggling and frightened my family. I thought I had hysteria!"

He took one mouthful after another, laughing self-deprecatingly.

Director Gu went to the bathroom and came back with an ugly expression on his face.

"what happened?"

Chen Weidong made a rough guess and asked knowingly.

Director Gu sat down, didn't say anything, just picked up the food, and after a while, picked up the 48-degree Wuliangye on the table, raised his neck and took a few mouthfuls, and put it on the table: "The report in the afternoon If there is a meeting, there is no need to open it, and everyone has left."

"Damn it! Even the members of our Science and Industry Committee have left, there is no organization or discipline!"

He just lost his temper behind his back.

These people are the priceless treasures of the country, not to mention that he is just a director, he is a director, and higher-level leaders are polite when they see them.

This time, it is not so much to give him face and to attend this report meeting, but rather to see what Infinity Company has come up with.

Now that he knew that Infinity Company was fooling people, he naturally had no interest in staying any longer.

Taking advantage of lunch time, it is not uncommon to come and leave without saying goodbye.

Chen Weidong put on a strong face and said, "Forget it, let's go! We still have to bring out the real guy. When we have the real guy, we can talk about everything."

Director Gu and the general in the final assembly noticed his pretending indifference, and sighed inwardly.

"That's right, that's the reason!"

Director Gu patted Chen Weidong on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Your Infinity Company is in the mountainous area of ​​Qiannan, doesn't it have a server storage base? The area is quite large, so let's experiment there first."

"It's only successful. Our National Defense Science, Technology and Industry Committee will definitely support it!"

The general also squeezed a smile: "It doesn't need to be completely successful, as long as it is possible, we dare to invest heavily! Xiao Chen, come on! I will send someone to notify you and increase the security for you to ensure that your experiment goes smoothly!"

Chen Weidong looked extremely moved, nodded his head constantly, and then said resolutely: "Please rest assured, the two leaders, even if our company sells everything, we will definitely make the aerospace plane! If we don't achieve our goal, we will never give up!"

He clenched his fist tightly.

Director Gu and the general, seeing that he finally cheered up, smiled at each other.

They tried their best to comfort Chen Weidong, for fear that this young genius who had never suffered setbacks since his debut would lose his fighting spirit.

But to be honest, after realizing that Infinity Corporation's aerospace aircraft development plan is likely to be just a theory on paper, the two of them are most disappointed.

In [-], the United States proposed a space-based weapon system based on the missile defense plan.

The plan clearly proposes to deploy 1000 giant satellites in a space of more than 24 kilometers. Each satellite is composed of hundreds of megawatts of chemical laser generators and ten-meter reflectors.

Using continuous irradiation, it can destroy ballistic missiles centered on satellites within a range of [-] kilometers within two to four seconds.

Although it is said that the Star Wars plan was proposed by the old President Reagan as a means of military competition to bring down the Soviet economy.

But in order to protect its own safety and have a stronger confidence, the United States is indeed moving in this direction, and it has never stopped for more than 20 years.

As early as the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s, the technology related to the laser satellite system had already been verified.

The "Alpha Laser System" carried by the satellite began to be developed in the 80s, and the light output test was carried out in the early 90s.

By [-], it had reached the megawatt level required for actual combat.

In [-], the United States conducted three gigawatt level ground tests, as well as the integration test of the aiming system, all of which met the expected design requirements.

The successfully developed laser system can continuously fire for 200 to [-] seconds, and each satellite can destroy more than [-] ballistic missiles on average.

It can be said that at this stage, the satellite space-based laser system in the United States has actually been completed, and it is just a matter of launching it into the sky!

However, when it was actually developed, the Americans were not in a hurry.

Because in the 21st century, after the Iraq War started, they suddenly discovered that at this moment, no country in the world could threaten their status.

And each satellite weighs 35 tons, just launching a complete satellite system into the sky is an extremely huge expense.

Relatively speaking, it is more cost-effective for the United States to promote their Patriot missile system, push the anti-missile base outward from the ground, and induce other countries to pay for the anti-missile system.

After all, the United States has already paid serious economic losses because of the Iraq War.

It is really difficult for them to squeeze out the budget and launch dozens of laser satellites that are temporarily unusable.

Therefore, on the one hand, the United States strengthened the improvement of the space-based laser system and formulated an emergency space-based satellite launch plan; on the other hand, it only paid TRW and Lockheed Martin $[-] million to let them develop A one-third-sized experimental satellite for practical verification in space.

Of course, these actions of the United States cannot be hidden from the major countries in the world.

Although the intelligence personnel of various countries can't get any technical details about the specific progress of the American project, they still know what the other party is doing and to what extent.
