Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

In Wanhu Base, tranquility was restored at this time, and all scheduled tasks had been completed today.

Countless media almost simultaneously used pop-up windows and the words "go home" to announce the return of "Dongfanghong No. 1".

Once upon a time, the "one star" that the whole country put into space has returned.

Some older people couldn't help but feel enlightened when they saw this news. When they were young teenagers, they all experienced overwhelming news of "successful launch".

When they were getting old, they received the news of "going home" again, and they were filled with emotions for a while.

I couldn’t help but wonder whether I should visit a museum in the future, which would be considered as witnessing the changes of the times.

As for the second test equipment, the "return capsule", it seems to be quiet. The success of the test is only spread in a small area.

One shot penetrated the soul, destroying the entire fire position and breaking through the world's most advanced air defense cluster.

Global strike and rapid response cannot be blocked by radar locking or visual targeting. It is a fatal threat to both ground troops and aircraft carriers on the sea.

Space-based weapons seem to have taken a concrete shape.

However, for Zhou Rui, this "cluster bomb-like" effect is just a first attempt. It is a whole series of technical routes.

In fact, reconnaissance return capsules, support return capsules, and rescue return capsules are all possible applications.

And it is also an important technical branch of the future "orbital mothership".

Large fixed-wing drones can directly enter the atmosphere from "Nantianmen" and ensure long endurance, but small drones do not have this ability.

A large drone that only functions as a "bomber" is obviously too rigid in tactics.

With the "return capsule" to carry small drones, the entire orbital ground tactical system has been enriched, and even some messy things can be dropped.

In many past science fiction works, there are many paratrooper devices falling from space.

The huge metal throwing warehouse fell from the sky and hit the ground with a "bang", and then came out one after another armed warriors, majestic, domineering, and extremely handsome.

If paired with a bubble-filled "I'm landing, I feel good", it can even scare the enemy into surrendering directly.

But from a realistic perspective, spending so much effort to throw down a single soldier is a bit flashy.

How strong must be the combat effectiveness and survivability of this individual soldier to be so promiscuous on the modern battlefield.

This is the same principle as the "Gundam", handsome is handsome, and one armor-piercing bullet is guaranteed to kill him.

Anyway, Zhou Rui feels that even if he throws "Lv Xubo" in, there will be no good end. He is an "intelligent warrior", not a "destroyer".

Moreover, the technical difficulty will increase exponentially.

We have to add "manned spaceflight", "orbital life support", "super shock absorption", "super heat insulation" and "logistics supply".

So many technologies are piled up, just to deliver a single soldier? What is the difference between this and the golden pole carrying dung?

Orbital throwing itself is to reach inaccessible places. It is the right way to think outside of film and television works and give full play to the advantages of "mechanical intelligence" to go unmanned.

An hour after the return capsule landed, Zhou Rui listened to the report of the observer at the fall point.

"On the whole, the ability to break through is extremely strong. The only drawback is that the destructive power against fortifications is slightly weak, but the lethality against vehicles is extremely precise."

The observer over there sounded excited.

Zhou Rui said: "The destructive power of fortifications can be achieved by changing functions, but personally I still feel that flexibility is more important than pure destructive power."

He doesn't expect that one weapon can dominate the world. Each weapon has its own function and should be traded off.

The return capsule tested today has its own advantages, that is, it has continuous deterrence and pursuit capabilities. It is not a one-time deal like aerial bombs.

If dozens of drones can continue to attack for more than ten minutes, they will die if they show up.

"You're right."

"Please keep all the wreckage. I will need to do data and trace analysis later."

"Okay Mr. Zhou, please don't worry, the video information will be sent to you later."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Rui handed the information in his hand to the staff and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you will continue on duty."

The man was an engineer in his early thirties. He had a charming M-shaped hairline at a young age, which showed that he was of high standard.

"It's okay, Mr. Zhou, just accept it if you get it in the lottery. I had a lot of fun celebrating last time."

Zhou Rui patted his shoulder and left the command center.

Most of the people in the base went to celebrate, but Zhou Rui was not ready to rush there. In the future, launches would be regular, and the frequency would be as high as once every half a month. It is impossible to make a big deal every time, and it will gradually become more common. Stay indifferent until there is another technological breakthrough.

What? Would you say today is a technological breakthrough?

Sprinkle some water.

After getting on the Hongqi N501, the convoy drove to a high-end local restaurant in Shanghai. Gan Yuan and I went here last time and the food was good. Zhou Rui booked a private room today.

Opening the door, a group of people from the space agency were already seated inside. Gan Yuan had also brought several people from the company to take care of them. The news network was playing on the TV on the wall behind them.

The big celebration banquet is gone, but the small dinner party is still there.

Director Sun stood up and said, "Mr. Zhou, what a coincidence, the news broadcast just ended and you missed your shot."

Zhou Rui waved his hand: "It's okay. I'm used to it. I don't have time to watch it every day."

This time the space agency has so many smart people coming, they are not willing to just be a spectator and go back. They also hope to confirm the introduction of a "mimetic command" system and install it in the four major rocket bases across the country.

This epoch-making technology will become nourishment for the development of the entire aerospace industry and feed back more innovations.

Just like upgrading a DOS system to a visual operating system, it is not only comfortable to look at, but also brings changes in all aspects.

Zhou Rui is not opposed to this kind of cooperation. It can be said that the support of the National Space Administration is indispensable for Tai Tiangong to get on the right track so quickly. There will only be more cooperation projects between the two parties in the future.

Zhou Rui even proposed a plan to provide it free of charge in exchange for other support and services, so that the space agency would not have to re-plan the funds when it returns. Why should you come and go with money? If you are going to the bank to brush up your performance, you still have to do the accounting. .

This refreshing attitude undoubtedly made the space agency very happy. Director Sun had finally completed his last task before retiring, and he stood up and had a drink happily.

"Mr. Zhou, they're all in the wine!"

Zhou Rui laughed and drank with him.

"Encourage each other. There will be many places for cooperation in the future."

After three rounds of drinking, the two parties reached many verbal agreements. Since the development of "Tai Tiangong", the business has become more and more stable.

After Zhou Rui saw off the space agency party, the time had reached 10 o'clock.

I don't know when it started drizzling outside, and I don't know when it stopped, leaving only the wet ground and thick winter fog.

The street lights became dim, pedestrians stopped talking to each other, and the only sound between heaven and earth seemed to be the sound of cars passing by.

Zhou Rui put away his collar and felt that the air was very good. He looked at Gan Yuan aside and said, "Are you tired? Take a walk?"

Gan Yuan nodded subconsciously, and then felt the condition of her right leg.

"It's okay, I'll accompany you."

"You have to walk even when you are tired. Use it or lose it. This principle applies everywhere in the body."

Zhou Rui made a hollow shape with his left arm and gestured to Gan Yuan.

Gan Yuan hesitated slightly, but still only put a few fingers on her boss's elbow, not daring to really hold her arm.

To be honest, although it was technically because her leg was injured, the "taboo" that she had violated in the past few days made her feel a little panicked.

Yes, taboo. That is tenderness that should not belong to you

The two of them walked side by side in the mist, with Lin Tuo and other security personnel in the distance.

"Captain Lin, is this distance too far?"

Lin Tuo said calmly: "No, go further and leave some space."

After walking for who knows how long, Gan Yuan could no longer bear the pressure in her heart and suddenly withdrew her hand.

Zhou Rui looked back curiously and said, "What's wrong?"

Gan Yuan lowered her head: "Boss, this is inappropriate."

She was a little worried that if this continued, she would be disqualified and lose her position.

Zhou Rui didn't stop and continued to walk forward neither fast nor slow, but his left hand slipped down and held Gan Yuan's hand.

"Don't be brave, I still have to hold you if you fall."

Lin Tuo, who was ten meters away, suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes and said repressedly: "Back off! Back off!"

"Exit 30 meters away! Leave room for Mr. Zhou to operate!"

Gan Yuan bit her lip, her palms were wet, as if water could drip from her palms.

This feeling of panic and relief is really hard to describe.

Forget it, just listen to the boss anyway.

Whatever the boss asks you to do, you can do whatever you want.
