God-level Trader of Rebirth

Chapter 496 Writing New Textbooks

After a banquet, everyone left happily.

Accompanying Zhang Bing on business trips, Zhang Yan was surprised to find that his younger brother, whom he had looked down upon before, was really promising.

He is confident, organized, very approachable, and very good at deceiving others.

Traveling all over Gambia with him, my brother made so many acquaintances that even a person who likes to make friends felt ashamed.

Here, it seems that a war broke out not long ago.

Bullet craters and bullet marks can be seen everywhere, and occasionally maggot-infested dead people can be seen in the wilderness.

However, the situation here seems to be calming down.

Some tribal militias who have a good relationship with the farm, led by the farm instructors, patrol around and maintain order. Although there is some temporary turmoil, in the long run, it is still very peaceful.

The base also often entertained him.

The former transport plane pilot often conducted pilot ground training with Zhang Yan, engaging in simple confrontations with each other and winning small prizes.

Zhang Yan's health is much better than that of the former transport plane pilot.

Even though he has been working in civil aviation for several years, he has never missed a day of exercise. Even during the months when he was suspended from work and at home, he continued to exercise every day.

In most of the confrontations between the two, Zhang Yan wins.

Gradually, he has been staying here for more than three months. He didn't say anything about leaving, and the other party didn't say anything. He just ate and drank every day, and took turns keeping him company.

As they became acquainted, the topic continued to deepen, and finally, for some reason, the subject came up about his experiences in the civil aviation department, and a group of senior men rose up to protest against him.

While the wine was in full swing, someone suggested that he stay in Gambia.

They said that several tribes that have good relations with the farm have taken control of the politics here.

The original militia-like armed forces have been disbanded by the new government, and the selected elites have been retrained by the base.

The next step here is to establish a small air force team, but the locals are basically illiterate. Let alone flying planes, even driving tanks will fall into ditches.

Therefore, while the farm recruits technical troops from international mercenaries, it also taps potential from within.

Most of the security team members on the farm have retired from the domestic army. There are various types of military units, but there are still relatively few compared to high-tech units, because even if those people retire, they can still live a good life.

People don't want to come here at all.

Farms in China are also selecting talents through the labor market.

But among the Chinese people who can fly a plane, apart from a few old former Mauro-Russian pilots, the only one who can fly a plane is the former transport aircraft pilot.

No other one can be found.

In order to reassure him, the farm said that he only needs to serve as a flight instructor and train pilots.

The Gambia is a small country, the struggle for power has ended, and conflicts with neighboring countries are rare, so security is absolutely guaranteed.

But as soon as these words came out, Zhang Yan had other thoughts.

I am a soldier, and soldiers love war by nature.

That's why he followed his younger brother and traveled thousands of miles to Africa, a chaotic place, hoping to find opportunities for development.

Now there was a chance before him to get back into the sky and possibly take part in a real fight.

The combative factor latent in his blood suddenly flared up.

It seems that his younger brother doesn't need to worry about him anymore. This kid is doing better than him, and his face is shiny all day long.

The guys at the African farm are also very compatible. We all have a great time working together and have the opportunity to fly fighter jets and engage in real air combat.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yan agreed to their invitation, but also said that he could serve as an instructor temporarily, but his ultimate dream is to become an official fighter pilot.

Rather than driving a two-seater trainer aircraft.

After waiting for several months, Zhang Yan waited for a fighter jet that shocked him: FC-1.

This is a fighter jet jointly developed by China and Pakistan. I didn’t expect that the base could actually get it, and the appearance is just out of the factory, completely brand new!

Like Zhang Bing back then, he was surprised by the background of this place.

The FC-1, which has been improved by base engineers, has shown extremely excellent performance.

They changed the original mechanical transmission to fly-by-wire control, which greatly improved the control comfort and flexibility during flight.

In addition, it is also equipped with an active phased array radar, with an irradiation range of 1 kilometers, and actively guided air-to-air missiles. These equipment give the FC- beyond visual range strike capabilities.

In Zhang Yan’s words: “Even if I encounter an F16 fighter, I will shoot it down!”

There are also Type 99 main battle tanks, various domestically produced light weapons, and surface-to-air missiles.

He now completely believes that this is the domestic weapons testing ground.

The small-scale air force team formed by him and several former Mauritian and Russian pilots soon welcomed its first batch of trainees: all veterans recruited domestically!

When these people were in the army, they were not Air Force personnel, but they had a solid foundation and trained very hard.

However, their physiques have already taken shape, and there is little possibility of further improvement. Training them into qualified pilots has cost him a lot of thought.

In this way, Zhang Yan was completely immersed in the joy of guiding and building pilots for a country from scratch.

He also enjoyed aerial combat. During the last large-scale battle in The Gambia in 2009, the flying team he led easily seized air supremacy, covered the ground troops, and wiped out those rebel organizations that were unwilling to obey the government.

In the process, he also invited his opponent, a mercenary who was said to have served in the U.S. Air Force, to engage in close air combat and shoot him down.

Every day, he also has to study.

Through learning, he has enhanced his sense of belonging to the base and his sense of responsibility.

Every month, they are scanned by a device and monitored by a biological lie detector to test their loyalty to the base.

As his study progresses, he has access to more and more information.

He already understood that this was not some secret base of the G family, but belonged to an international independent organization.

The purpose of this organization is to build a final Garden of Eden for all mankind.

Even if a nuclear war breaks out, it can still leave the last glimmer of hope for mankind.

Everyone involved in the plan is working hard to get out of this small planet and colonize outer space.

And right now, they are fighting for this ideal and protecting the future of all mankind!

Even if I sacrifice my life for it, I am willing to do so!

In 2010, he received a new batch of training equipment, a new type of flight simulation training device - with overload simulation!

On the flight simulator, he felt a flying experience that was no different from actual flying.

Whether it's takeoff and landing, tumbling combat, or low-altitude penetration, everything is just like the real thing.

Through this batch of training equipment, the proficiency of all pilots in the small air force he led has greatly increased.

Every once in a while, they will conduct a simulated air battle involving all members.

After frequent simulated air combat training, everyone found that their flying skills had made great progress. Even Zhang Yan felt that he had reached the level of "human and machine integration".

I'm afraid he is no longer inferior to the ace pilots in the previous army.

At this time, his pilot team expanded again.

By this time, the number of people coming to Gambia from China had increased to 200,000, becoming a group that could not be ignored in the local area.

Selecting pilots this time was smoother than expanding the team the first time.

A large number of young people of appropriate age participated in the registration, and after careful selection, twenty fighter pilots were selected.

While training them, Zhang Yan received a new batch of simulation trainers: aerospace aircraft simulation trainers!

They will train the first batch of qualified aerospace aircraft pilots for the base!

Zhang Yan was not surprised but overjoyed when he heard the news.

They have already begun training aerospace plane pilots, which shows that aerospace planes are no longer just drawings on paper. Their organization, which is full of ideals, is one step closer to their dreams!

When he entered the training cabin, looking at the vast sea of ​​stars in the universe on the screen, Zhang Yan became obsessed for a moment.

Chen Weidong opened the door of the office and was about to go out, when he met Li Xingbei coming towards him.

He looked troubled and hesitant. As soon as he saw Chen Weidong, he said: "Mr. Chen, do you want to go out?"

Chen Weidong looked at his expression and knew that he had something important to do. He quietly reopened the office door and invited him to come in and sit down: "Old Li, is there something important?"

Li Xingbei is a member of the company's academic committee.

Not just academicians of the Academy of Engineering.

It is also the absolute authority in domestic materials science and engineering disciplines.

In recent years, because of my age and severe decline in physical functions, I have gradually withdrawn from the project and turned to provide technical guidance to young researchers in the profession.

"That's not a very important matter."

"Mr. Chen, as you mentioned before, we have almost completed the task of asking our academic committee to allocate personnel to compile professional textbooks." Li Xingbei said hesitantly.

Chen Weidong smiled and praised: "Isn't this great? Scientific research is not a matter of one generation. Textbooks are an important tool for inheriting knowledge and cultivating a new generation of scientists. I thought it would take you several years to compile it if you are immersed in research all day long. Well, I didn’t expect you to be very interested in education!”

Nowadays, society is progressing rapidly, and changes are happening everywhere.

Many textbook contents in universities have remained unchanged for decades and have seriously failed to keep up with the speed of technological development.

Many technologies in engineering majors will be updated and iterated in a few years. Things learned in universities and technologies actually used by enterprises are at least several generations behind.

Take the mechanical metal processing technology internship, this practical basic course as an example.

Twenty years ago, the internship was for students to make claw hammers.

Now, even with more advanced CNC machine tools, the internship is still about making claw hammers.

Students learn in vain.

Even if some students have strong autonomy and want to learn more advanced technologies, they can only spend a lot of effort to find foreign teaching materials.

This is undoubtedly a very sad thing.

Therefore, Chen Weidong asked the academic committee to organize the six major laboratories and all technical departments to rewrite new teaching materials for their respective industries.

Ensure that the content keeps pace with the times and covers the latest scientific and technological advances and research results.

In this way, students can be exposed to the most cutting-edge knowledge and technology and lay a solid foundation for their studies and future careers.

Otherwise, in this era of continuous expansion of university enrollment, the so-called higher education in universities will only become a tool and industry to delay social employment pressure, rather than a place to cultivate talents.

Educational qualifications will also be significantly devalued.

In the long run, it will be difficult for the country and enterprises to find qualified talents, and they will eventually face a lose-lose situation.

Seeing his boss looking at him encouragingly, Li Xingbei plucked up the courage and said in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, but the Ministry of Education doesn't seem to approve of the teaching materials we have compiled.

"It is said that many contents span too much and are quite different from the existing teaching material system."
