Chapter 97: First Night Flight
While Chen Tianxiao was studying the [Predator] that Li Tang had made, Li Tang was discussing it with Lu Weiming (Fat Liu's cousin) from the Aero Engine Team.

"...You mean, since there is no electromagnetic particle jet engine, we can simply remove the electromagnetic air compressors on both sides and directly revise the size of the electric motor I designed and configure two of them..."

Li Tang repeated the suggestion Lu Weiming had just given him, while quickly modifying the concept drawing of the [Predator] drone on a computer.

"Teacher, should the bend here be 30 degrees downward? ... That's it..."

Lu Weiming came up from time to time to fill in the flaws left by Li Tang's revisions.

After all the modifications were completed, Li Tang looked at the concept map in front of him and thought it was really good.

"Well, the wingspan is longer, and the fuselage is longer, so the proportions are still reasonable. Two super electric motors... this should give enough power...

We then arranged four energy storage devices in a circle, which quadrupled the power reserve, and the endurance even exceeded the standard.

Not bad, Wei Ming, your suggestion is really feasible!"

Li Tang praised it and issued instructions to Zero to generate the corresponding grid map and calculate the overall aerodynamic performance.

If the calculation results pass, the newly designed test will be run again in the full-environment simulation test system.

If you pass the simulation test, you can make your first flight.

Lu Weiming is a handsome man, which fully proves the old saying that he is a "Suide man".

It's just that he is too tall, strong and powerful, so it's no wonder that the judge undoubtedly ruled that his act of bravery was excessive self-defense.

Hearing Li Tang's praise, Lu Weiming's dark red face couldn't help but turn red.

Considering his three years in prison, it was thanks to Fat Liu that he was able to get a job at a high-paying company like the Future Science and Technology Research Institute.

After coming here, if you can still do the profession you love, it means your ancestors will be very lucky.

There is a shortage of talent in the domestic aerospace industry, and even fewer people are able to join private enterprises.

After Xiao Lan went to great lengths to get the company's aero engine team together, they finally managed to gather twelve experienced talents.

Lu Weiming has the least experience, but fortunately he is the most hardworking.

Among these 12 people, there are some who have a high opinion of themselves and feel that their talents are not recognized. However, they did not expect that after joining the company, they would be pulled in by Li Tang to spend four hours a day on consciousness synchronization teaching.

In just ten days, they learned more knowledge about aerospace engines than they had learned in the ten years from undergraduate to doctoral degree.

After all, although ten years is a long time, there is not much knowledge related to aircraft engines that can be learned.

These 12 people immediately regarded Li Tang as a professional giant and referred to him as “mentor” from then on.

Therefore, Chen Tianxiao also nicknamed them "The Twelve Guardians of Aerospace Engines"!
Originally, in addition to their studies, the 12 people were working with Chen Tianxiao and his aircraft team to develop a turbofan engine to replace the electromagnetic particle jet engine that could not be manufactured for the time being.

But Lu Weiming was the first one to arrive at the company every day. Today, he suddenly saw Li Tang's hand-made version of "Predator" and was shocked.

The aircraft they were designing had actually been built by the dean and mentor!

Seeing the Predator being towed into a makeshift hangar, he excitedly rushed forward to watch.

Just then, Li Tang was heard sighing, saying that the super electric motor still did not meet the standards of the replacement version and could not be tested for the time being.

Out of curiosity, he asked Li Tang for the relevant information about the hand-rubbed super motor, and then he began to study the power problem of Li Tang's hand-rubbed version of "Predator".

When Li Tang came back from looking at the headquarters site, he hadn't even had lunch yet.

Lu Weiming came to me and offered his own small suggestions, and together they discussed how to improve the hand-rubbed version of [Predator].

In fact, this power problem arises because Li Tang is too eager to keep consistent with the "Predator" in the memory of time and space, but because the technology is not up to it, the alternative plan is too simple and direct.

As a bystander, Lu Weiming was able to come up with a solution, which shows his talent and ability in this area.

When Li Tang was about to continue discussing with Lu Weiming, Zero indicated that Xu Cheng was coming.

Knowing that Xu Cheng went directly to the laboratory and must have something urgent, he asked Lu Weiming to go back first and went to the office to meet Xu Cheng.

“Boss, Longwei’s Chengdong came suddenly, and I told him that you entered the laboratory.

But he is anxious to see you and will be at the company in about ten minutes. What is he here for?"

"Oh, he's asking about the carbon chip, but the carbon chip is still being manufactured, and I don't have anything to show him."

Xu Cheng's face showed a helpless expression after being shocked again:

"Boss, the semiconductor R&D team has only been established for less than half a month. Haven't you been teaching them?

But from what you said, the carbon chip has already entered the manufacturing process?"

Li Tang explained: "Yes, but it is made in my laboratory. You can think of it as me 'rubbing it by hand'. The real industrial manufacturing will have to wait until May.

After learning new materials and new technologies, the semiconductor R&D team is responsible for ensuring the smooth progress of industrial production and the subsequent research and development of new series of chips.

Haven’t you read the work report submitted by Mr. Lin from Datang Semiconductor?
The factory renovation will not be completed until mid-May, and trial production should be possible in late May."

"Boss, the hand rubbing you mentioned, is it like the way you rubbed the [Predator] with your hands?"

The drone he had just seen appeared in Xu Cheng’s mind.

"You seem to have a problem with my 'hand rubbing'?"

Xu Cheng quickly denied, "No, no, I don't dare to object, it's just that your hand speed is too fast, I can't keep up."

"Then you must study hard. Our business is getting bigger and bigger, and you, as the chief steward, must not let us down."

"That can't be possible. I will follow the boss even if I die of exhaustion."

"Okay, stop being cheesy! Chengdong is here, just take him to my office." "Okay."

……

……

"Dean Li, you have to tell me about carbon chips!"

The first thing Cheng Dong said when he entered the room was to get straight to the point.

Obviously, he must have been thinking and talking about this matter all the way, so much so that he could speak without thinking.

Or, it has been carefully thought out.

There is no way. Long Wei has been tormented by the chip issue for several years. Although there is already some small spark of hope, he is afraid that it will be blown out by a sudden gust of wind.

Now that I suddenly heard that Li Tang had developed a new carbon chip, how could I remain indifferent?
Li Tang spread his hands and said, "You hung up the phone too quickly yesterday, and I don't have any carbon-based chip samples to show you now.

I'm afraid it would be unconvincing if I just talk to you now."

Cheng Dong was stunned when he heard this.

"My great professor, did you tell me that you have developed a carbon-based chip that can outperform silicon-based chips?"

Li Tang nodded, "Yes."

"Are you saying that a 28-nanometer carbon chip is comparable to a 7-nanometer silicon chip?"

"Yes!"

"Are you asking me to buy Datang Software's EDA tool software and ask Longwei's chip design team to hurry up and learn it so that they can complete the design of the new Kirin in May?"

"That's right, but I didn't give you a deadline. May is the time for Datang Semiconductor's own industrial trial production."

"Since you have said so much, why are you telling me now that empty words are not convincing?" Cheng Dong was speechless.

Li Tang scratched his head. "What I mean is, if you come tomorrow, I will have samples for you. I really don't have anything to say today."

"There's nothing to say today, tomorrow... wait a minute!"

Cheng Dong suddenly stopped, stared and asked: "You said that if I come tomorrow, you will have samples for me?"

Li Tang snapped his fingers and nodded, "You heard it right!"

"Are there really samples?"

"Of course!" Li Tang affirmed:

"Tomorrow I can give you ten Linglong smart chips, which are equivalent to the current server-level chips that integrate CPU and GPU.

Take it back and test it carefully to see if its performance is as strong as I said. "

Cheng Dong took several deep breaths in succession, and finally he was able to calm his rapidly beating heart.

"Can you give me twenty dollars?"

Li Tang shook his head. "No, this is a product of my laboratory. The quantity is limited. Remember to keep it strictly confidential! This is a state-level top secret!"

Cheng Dong's heart trembled when he heard this, and he nodded and said, "I understand. Okay, then I will stay in the hotel next door tonight, and wait for you to give me the Linglong chip tomorrow."

"sure."

……

……

It was just after midnight.

The final assembly workshop in Building F, two-thirds of which has been renovated and is ready for use.

Li Tang was very glad that he had adopted the plan of modifying and using at the same time to carry out the renovation project, otherwise there would be no place to assemble the [Predator] at all.

At this time, in the main control room, Li Tang watched through the big screen as Zero directed the six-legged robot to re-modify the hand-rubbed version of [Predator] that was completed in the morning.

Behind him, Chen Tianxiao's entire aircraft design team and the Twelve Guardians of AVIC Engine were also watching with excitement.

This was not the first time they had watched unmanned factory production under the command of Zero, but it was the first time they had seen how the aircraft they were designing were assembled unmanned.

Today, they have been discussing this hand-made version of the "Predator" internally. The focus is whether it is a prop and whether it can fly.
Now, being called here by the dean to watch and listen to Lu Weiming's explanation of several key points of the transformation, how could he not understand that this is the real thing!

At this moment, all the hard work of working overtime until midnight seemed to be swept away.

Chen Tianxiao's face turned red at this moment, he was really excited.

I still remember that this drone was the first version of his concept design based on the props in the movie "The Wandering Earth 2".

When the dean saw it, he almost fainted.

Unexpectedly, the dean actually succeeded in rubbing it with his hands!

“Everyone, please come and watch tonight and listen to Lu Weiming’s explanation, so that you can actually experience how aircraft are manufactured in a completely unmanned smart factory, and what role you can play in it.

It is expected that the final assembly will be completed in four hours and pass 1217 basic tests.

So, I decided to take off for the first time at 4 a.m.!"

 [Predator] takes off, and the monthly tickets and recommendation votes from friends are also coming!
