The years of red flags

"They are our ancestors." Jiang Hua said with a smile, "After all, they have reimbursed your expenses for several years. For the sake of money, you should give them some face."

"Mr. Jiang, it's not that I don't give you face. Except for the early days of our space agency, when we didn't have the hardware conditions, we have never lowered our standards to such a low level at any other time."

"You've worked so hard. I know that although the training standards have been lowered, it has undoubtedly lowered your standards as human beings." Jiang Hua consoled them, "But we have to consider the actual situation. They are all princes, born with a silver spoon in their mouths and have never suffered any hardship. Can you expect them to pass such strict training?"

The instructor said with deep sorrow: "This is not a plane, this is a spacecraft. If something happens in space, it can cost lives. Every drop of sweat you shed now is a guarantee that they will be able to return safely in the future."

"The rich families have their own national conditions." Jiang Hua said helplessly: "They are just a few people who are playing around. It's hard for us to refuse them. After all, we are now improving our friendship with them. After all, they are princes, right?"

“Then you give a standard.”

Jiang Hua thought for a while and said, "As long as we train them not to do stupid things in the sky, it's fine as long as they don't kill themselves. If they do something stupid in the sky and kill themselves because of our inadequate training, then we will have a hard time explaining it."

"That shouldn't be the case, right? Although I've lowered my standards by several levels, the physical training is still quite strict." The instructor said unconfidently, "We've repeatedly emphasized the most basic operations, so you shouldn't make such a low-level mistake."

"You have to know that these are a bunch of bored guys who want to die." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "So, you must not underestimate them. When it comes to the stage of carrying out the mission, you must send someone to keep a close eye on them."

"Don't worry about that. We'll definitely keep an eye on it."

After the tour, the head of the space agency took Jiang Hua to another place. Jiang Hua asked curiously, "What secrets do you want to show me?"

"You'll know when you get there."

"Oh my god, are you guys playing so big now?"

After arriving at the place, Jiang Hua couldn't help but exclaim: "This is the plus version."

I had read the announcement from the space agency and knew that the new spacecraft would be much larger than previous ones, but Jiang Hua didn't expect it to be so much bigger.

"The spaceship used to be a small house, but now you have turned it into a mansion." Jiang Hua said in surprise, "It should be this big, great power can bring about miracles!"

"Your launch vehicle has made our previous vision come true." The leader said with a smile: "The reason why we let you launch the navigation satellite today is because we want to put all our energy into it. Increasing its size is not just a simple increase, it must pass various acceptance inspections. In the first half of this year, my space agency conducted experiments and many guests did not even have time to take a vacation. We basically worked around the clock seven days a week."

"That's not good." Jiang Hua shook his head. "Working too hard will prevent the inspiration of scientific and technological personnel from bursting out. In my opinion, we should combine work and rest."

"Do you think I don't want to? Every month I have to chase after them and force them to take a holiday." The leader said proudly: "However, it is also because of their hard work that we were able to build the new spacecraft hull in just half a year and pass various experiments and verifications."

"This time, all our people will go up. Do you want to take one of theirs and try it out?"

The leader quickly refused: "You can't do this randomly. Let alone these princes, the air force officers have only been trained for a short time and are far from meeting the standards for going into space. We have already drawn up a timetable for them to go into space and have also negotiated with the big players." "That's just what I said."

The leader smiled and asked, "Other people have money, so they spend their own money to go to heaven for fun. You also have money, so do you want to spend your own money to go to heaven for fun?"

"I don't want it." Jiang Hua shook his head: "Although this spaceship is already a mansion, I am still not satisfied. After our company's spaceship is manufactured, I will go to outer space for a tour."

The leader smiled and said, "I am looking forward to that day too. Your company's design concept is obviously much more advanced than our current spacecraft. I am also looking forward to the moment when your company's spacecraft goes into space."

"I believe the space agency also has a similar design." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Even if the space agency does not have it, the scientific research institutions that cooperate with the space agency must have it."

"That's the truth." The leader laughed. "If my design philosophy wasn't the same as yours, I would really like to conduct joint research and development with you. But this is also good. We can verify which path is correct."

"If they are all correct, then isn't it a waste of money?"

"It would be great if both are correct. We have two ways to fly into space. If one is too weak, we can always use a scratch."

"As expected of people who lived through that era, the idea of ​​preparing for war and famine is deeply rooted in their bones." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Some time ago, people from the China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation told me that we are rich now. Just look at your space agency and you will know that you are really rich. You used to be very careful with your budgets, but now you have to study spacecraft in multiple ways."

"Yes, it's true that you are rich. A private company is researching two types of aircraft." The leader said jokingly, "You are rich enough to rival a country."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Most people don't end up well if they are associated with this word."

"You are different." The leader gave a thumbs up and said, "Looking at your character, who wouldn't give a thumbs up and praise you? People who do good deeds will be celebrated."

"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Hua bowed, "I hope they can all succeed and contribute to our country's aerospace industry."

"If you have nothing to do these few days, come with me to the Qiongnan Launch Center." The leader said with a smile: "Your carrier rocket has contributed a lot, you must witness it with your own eyes."

Jiang Hua shook his head: "Forget it, I don't understand why you want to go far away instead of near. Isn't our launch base on the sea good enough?"

"I didn't say your launch base is bad, but this time the spacecraft is really too big. To be on the safe side, the weather conditions at the Wenchang launch base are better."

Jiang Hua bowed again and said, "I won't go. I wish you a successful launch."

After returning home, Jiang Hua suddenly had an idea and asked Pony to organize an event on QQ for interest groups of college students across the country to observe the launch of the Shenzhou spacecraft.
