Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

To be honest, in the 70s, the fighter jets of the University of Tokyo had broken through to the level of standard fourth-generation fighters such as the F-15 and Gripen fighters in the main world, which was a complete dimensionality reduction blow to the world of Bright Sword.

You should know that at this stage, the F-4C has no rivals. Relying on the two major advantages of aero engines and computers, plus breaking through the technical bottleneck of the new PD radar, and the air-to-air missiles that have long been far ahead, even if the Air Force of Dongda is not large in number, the more than 5 second-generation J500As are still strong and capable of fighting. After the more than 9 J- series that have been produced have been replaced with new computer fire control systems and PD radars, they are still at a crushing level when facing the air opponents in the world of Sword.

The J-12 and J-13 high-low combinations that have just appeared are an extraordinary existence in this world!

After ten years of polishing, the second Mingzhu aircraft carrier was commissioned, which directly raised the level of aircraft carriers to the level of the 1980s in the main world. With the development of the economy of Dongda, the military expenditure of Dongda has also risen after the economy has skyrocketed several times. The construction of the third Modu and the fourth Baodao has begun simultaneously.

In terms of specifications, the displacement of the Modu and Baodao is similar to that of the Mingzhu, both of which are more than 13 tons. However, considering that they will be equipped with a scaled-down version of the J-75 carrier-based aircraft in the future, the number of carrier-based aircraft on the Modu and Baodao will reach about 13, of which 50 will be J-15 carrier-based fighters, plus 9 Q-C carrier-based attack aircraft. This combination can compete with the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers of the main world.

With such a technological gap, if the construction of four aircraft carriers is completed, the Dongda Navy with four aircraft carrier battle groups will no longer be afraid of any opponent!
It will be useless even if the opponent has more than twice as many aircraft carriers!
The new generation of 96-ton large-scale Yuyang-class destroyer, with 120 vertical launchers, is compatible with the Trident-5 air defense missile with an air defense range of 200 kilometers, the Sea Sword-7 anti-ship missile with a range of 150 kilometers, the Sea Eagle-5 anti-submarine missile with a range of 1000 kilometers, and the Warhammer cruise missile with an attack range of kilometers. It can be said to be a veritable all-rounder at sea and the first sword-bearing guard in the Palace!

According to the latest plan, eight Yuyang-class 8-ton destroyers will be produced to ensure that each aircraft carrier battle group has two Yuyang-class 2-ton destroyers, a new and old combination of four Luyang-class destroyers and two Luhai-class destroyers, plus two of the latest attack-type black fish. The firepower of Dongda's aircraft carrier battle group is unprecedentedly powerful and despairing!
According to the routine combat training plan, the four major aircraft carrier battle groups of the East China Sea keep three of them in combat readiness at all times and one of them undergoing annual maintenance in Hong Kong, ensuring the combat capability to reach any battlefield in the world within two weeks.

For Todai, these are just guarantees of peace.

It is precisely based on these changes in strength that Ren Zhong dares to respond boldly to the Rogue Eagle's global economic integration and free trade.

Without these strengths as a backing, no matter how fast the economy of the University of Tokyo takes off and how large its size is, it will eventually be harvested and become just a huge profit for the financial giants of powerful countries.

In the main world, Xiao Rizi and Sandezi, who were once at their peak, had also been glorious in economic development. They created an economic miracle on their small territory, which eventually became the resources for the golden decade of a powerful country.

"Brother Ren, what do you think we are still lacking?" During the Spring Festival visit, Staff Officer Ye came to Ren Zhong's home to chat and said to Ren Zhong casually.

"Build another Liming Research Institute." Ren Zhong thought for a while, "If our Dongda can build another Liming Research Institute without me, then our Dongda's technological leadership can continue for a longer period of time."

Staff Officer Ye was somewhat stunned. Why did he feel as if Ren Zhong had made arrangements for his final affairs? "Brother Ren, you are only in your sixties. It is a little too early to be talking about this."

"Colonel Ye, to be honest, I've been feeling a little overwhelmed lately." Ren Zhong touched his completely gray hair. Although there was no obvious impact on his lifespan at present, it was equivalent to living two lives. Ren Zhong's brain had been running at a high intensity for a long time. Now that he was over 60 years old, he did feel an indescribable fatigue.

Since it was really impossible to maintain long-term living in both worlds, Ren Zhong began to choose to stay in the Bright Sword world for a long time after he no longer needed to carry goods back and forth all the time. This reduced the time of traveling back to the main world and allowed his brain to get a relatively sufficient rest plan. In this way, he spent much less time living in the main world. After all, if he chose not to travel back to the main world at night, even if he returned after living in the Bright Sword world for a month, the main world would still be at the time when he last traveled to the Bright Sword world, which was equivalent to living in the Bright Sword world for thirty days and returning to the main world to live for another day.

Therefore, after frequently bringing goods in the early stage and basically maintaining a one-to-one time ratio, in the later stage, there were no such frequent returns to pry open the timeline of the main world. In the past thirty years in the world of Bright Sword, less than ten years have passed in the main world.

Compared to the rapid technological advancement in the world of Bright Sword, the technological development in the main world is not that fast.

"Brother Ren, is there something wrong with your health? Why haven't I heard the doctor mention it?" Upon hearing Ren Zhong say this, Staff Officer Ye suddenly became nervous.

He is an indispensable national hero of the University of Tokyo. Any problem he encounters will cause an uproar among the upper echelons.

Now that Dongda relies on Ren Zhong to achieve technological leadership, it has unknowingly regarded Ren Zhong as Dongda's Optimus Prime.

It is an existence that cannot be lost at all.

"No, Chief of Staff Ye, what I want to say is that life is short-lived, and even if we live to be a hundred years old, we will eventually die. We are not immortal gods." Ren Zhong said with a smile, "If you don't think about the future, you will worry about the present. To be honest, there are still too few original researches in the Liming Research Institute, especially original theoretical researches in basic science. We basically have no such researches."

"In many cases, we are more like a fairly simple applied research institute, so I think from a national level, scientific research cannot just focus on applied research, we also need basic theoretical research."

"Aren't our universities conducting all kinds of theoretical research? Do we really need to build another scientific research system?" Staff Officer Ye asked in confusion.

Over the years, everyone has become accustomed to looking to Liming for scientific research and to universities for theoretical research, and they don’t think there is any problem with this at all.

Because of this system, the science and technology of Tokyo University is flourishing in a variety of ways, which is simply dazzling.

But if we trace back to the source, senior people like Staff Officer Ye will know that basically, it was Ren Zhong who provided the initial creativity and ideas behind these scientific and technological achievements.

This is somewhat limiting.

If anything happens to Ren Jian, the development of scientific and technological innovation of the entire University of Tokyo will undoubtedly be affected.

Before this, Staff Officer Ye and his colleagues had never thought deeply about this result.

According to them, Ren Zhong is omnipotent, and it seems that life can continue indefinitely.

However, today, when Ren Zhong raised this issue, Staff Officer Ye suddenly realized that Dongda University is completely dependent on Ren Zhong.

This is Ren Zhong’s honor, but also his biggest worry.

At this stage, he has to consider how to stay ahead in technology in an era without him.

The technological level of the current Bright Sword world is still uneven compared to the main world. Generally speaking, Dongda has reached the international leading level of the main world in the 1980s, and some technological fields have reached the level after the 21st century, such as the basic technologies such as alloys, computers and synthetic materials.

However, since Ren Zhong did not transfer much basic theoretical knowledge from the main world, the technical level in this area still remained at the level of the early 1970s.

Ren Zhong has been struggling with the question of whether to directly bring over the theories from the main world. If he directly brings over the theories, it will be even harder to hide his secrets since there are already huge flaws.

In fact, the top management is now fully aware of the abnormal heavy workload.

But if a country has such an abnormal person, every family will treat him like a treasure and pamper him.

Today, the Leon Group is not only a global leader in technology, but also in the scale of its subsidiaries and sales revenue.

However, the most crucial person behind all these is Ren Zhong, so the biggest flaw is also Ren Zhong.

Before this, Ren Zhong had been leading the Dawn Series forward with great tension, without thinking about these problems. Now his body in the world of Bright Sword is already over 60 years old, and traveling through time and space did not make Ren Zhong immortal.

On the contrary, it has an aging effect.

After bringing Dongda to the top of the world of Sword and Fairy, Ren Zhong had to consider these things.

It is obviously inappropriate to split the Liming Research Institute. After nearly three decades of development, the Liming Research Institute has grown into a behemoth with intricately intertwined disciplines and a fairly fixed model for upstream and downstream.

The current research efficiency is very high and the mobilization of resources is very effective.

In Ren Zhong’s mind, this is the natural choice for the National Engineering Research Institute of Southeast University after him in the future.

In addition to this, Ren Zhong felt that there was also a need for an academy of sciences responsible for basic theoretical research, that is, the Tokyo University Academy of Sciences, which would absorb top theoretical scientists, mathematicians, etc. from various disciplines and establish various national laboratories to carry out theoretical research.

In this way, the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering will promote each other's progress, and the research work of the Academy of Engineering will not lose theoretical guidance and eventually come to an end.

If the current Liming Research Institute did not have Ren Zhong's guidance, many fields would soon come to an end. For example, the current iterative technology for photolithography machines is still dry photolithography technology. No one has ever thought that in the future liquid could be used instead of air refraction for new photolithography. Now Ren Zhong has led everyone's thinking to find light sources with new wavelengths.

It is a natural idea to improve the precision of lithography machines by shortening the wavelength of the light source. As we all know, the most powerful lithography machine of the University of Tokyo at the 130nm level now uses a KrF light source with a wavelength of 248nm. If we want to further improve the precision of the lithography machine, we must upgrade the light source to an ArF light source and shorten the wavelength to 193nm. Only then can dry lithography machines reach a new level of 90nm to 65nm.

Next, we must change our thinking and adopt the immersion technology route, introducing water as a refractive medium to obtain a shorter wavelength. The actual equivalent wavelength of ArF light source plus immersion technology is 193nm/1.44=134nm, so that we can directly obtain 65nm processing accuracy at this wavelength.

On this basis, through multiple refraction improvements, ArF lithography machines can be used for processes from 45nm to 10/7nm, but their limit is at the 7nm node and cannot go any further.

To improve the accuracy of lithography machines above this, a new EUV extreme ultraviolet light source must be used. EUV lithography machines use extreme ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 13.5nm to reach the level of 5nm/3nm or even 1nm.

For these new technologies to be implemented in engineering, many basic theories must be overcome.

In this regard, Ren Zhong, a liberal arts student, couldn't understand the information at all.

According to Ren Zhong's idea, the work that the Academy of Sciences has to do is to analyze the production mechanisms of different light sources, and theoretically find out the generation principles of these special light sources such as 248 wavelengths and 193 wavelengths. After making theoretical breakthroughs first, the Academy of Engineering will find ways to realize these theories through practical and engineering and factory technology research.

This is a known technical route. In Ren Zhong's opinion, after reaching the limit of silicon-based chips, where will human computing power break through? This requires further research from a completely new direction.

According to the theoretical exploration of the main world, the two new fields of silicon carbide chips and quantum chips are the two major directions for the main world's human beings to break through the bottleneck of silicon-based chip computing power. Although the main world has not yet explored and mastered much knowledge in these areas, there is still a long way to go before these two major technical routes begin to realize practical chips.

However, judging from the current development trends, the probability of humans succeeding in these two directions is very high.

After all, the silicon-based computing model has basically proven its end, and humans have not seen any opportunity to put silicon carbide and quantum communications into practical use in the first step.

Ren Zhong hopes that the Academy of Sciences will undertake the research on such theoretical and technical challenges.

The Academy of Engineering can cross the river by feeling the stones, while the Academy of Sciences is free to explore in deep waters.

This is an idea that Ren Zhong has been thinking about for a long time, and it is completely different from the division between the Academy of Engineering and the Academy of Sciences in the main world.

In Ren Zhong's vision, the Academy of Sciences is a top-level theoretical research institution, funded by state grants, corporate donations, and education and training. All scientists in the Academy of Sciences should work part-time at universities, but they cannot work in companies or do engineering research.

Instead, it has been conducting experimental and theoretical research work.

Ren Zhong discussed his ideas with Staff Officer Ye bit by bit, and Staff Officer Ye gradually understood these relatively new ideas. It must be said that Ren Zhong's thinking is still very forward-looking. So this matter seems to be not easy to do well, but now the foundation of Southeast University is very strong, with thousands of universities of various types and many experts in leading disciplines. Universities are the strongest scientific and technological research force besides the Liming Institute.

However, the research scale of universities is still relatively small, and the size of laboratories and scientific research teams is generally only a few or a dozen people at most.

There is no chance of having a large research team like the Dawn Research Institute with thousands of people.

After the establishment of the Tokyo University Academy of Sciences, it will be easy to form a basic theoretical research team of several hundred people, bringing together relevant professors from different universities to conduct research and learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses.

After coming up with this idea, Staff Officer Ye began to plan this matter. He found subject leaders from more than a dozen universities in Yandu to discuss the organization and operation mode of this academy of sciences, incorporated some of Ren Zhong's ideas, and finally formed a plan for the construction of the Academy of Science for theoretical research at Dongda!
