Chapter 491 Kunpeng Rocket

As the blood donation policy gradually spreads across the Indochina Peninsula, thousands of tons of blood arrive every day, which becomes Su Jie's nourishment in practicing the Blood Sea Devouring Heaven Demonic Art.

Indochina has a population of 250 million and can provide Su Jie with too many resources.

Although he spent a lot of money as a result of donating blood, what Su Jie got in exchange was the rapid improvement of the Blood Sea Devouring Heaven Demonic Skill.

The holy blood in the body has exceeded 10,000 drops during refining.

But on this day, Su Jie left the underground training ground after a long absence and took the time to come to the southern part of Zen Kingdom, a wasteland near the sea.

What was once just a wasteland is now a huge base located here.

At the entrance of the base, there are seven gilt characters hanging: Chiyang Rocket Launch Site.

That's right, this is a rocket launch site, built by Jieke Group with a lot of money, and will be a rocket center for future space launch missions.

This rocket launch base covers an area of ​​35,331 acres and has a coastline of 8.8 kilometers. It was originally a barren salt-alkali land. The nearby 200 kilometers is basically an uninhabited land. There are no densely populated towns and important transportation lines, so the safety is relatively good.

At the same time, because it is close to the equator, low latitudes are the best location for satellite launches. When launching satellites in the equatorial area, the launch vehicle can make full use of the blue star's rotation, which can save the thrust of the rocket and make it easier to send the payload into orbit, so it was selected as the rocket launch site.

Su Jie came here in a car. From a distance, through the car window, he could see the supporting measurement and control station, technical area, test collaboration area, technical service area, rocket assembly plant and other supporting buildings in the Chiyang Rocket Launch Site. .

As the car drove along, most of the staff members encountered along the way were in a hurry, because today was the day when the first rocket assembly rolled off the assembly line.

The car stopped in front of a building. This is the rocket's behind-the-scenes monitoring room. All kinds of monitoring and data during the rocket launch will be summarized here.

When the rocket is launched, the button that is pressed for the countdown is also performed here.

"Mr. Su, Miss Liu!"

Entering inside, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and energetic walked over with a group of engineers.

He is the chief designer of the Kunpeng series of rockets. His name is Pang Liangzhi. He is originally from China. His grandfather immigrated to Beautiful Country during the war years. He previously worked for an aerospace technology company in Beautiful Country, and was later poached by Jieke Group.

The main reason is that Jieke Group promised to allow him to lead the team and design and build his own rocket.

In the beautiful country, although his strength is obvious to all, as a Chinese, he is always marginalized and it is impossible to sit in a high position.

As soon as Jieke Company contacted him, Pang Liangzhi agreed without much hesitation. His nationality was transferred to the Zen country, and his family was sent over to settle down, so that he had no worries.

"Master Pang Pang, you're fine. You're living a good life during this time."

Su Jie shook hands with Pang Liangzhi, with a friendly smile on his face.

"Mr. Su is embarrassing me. Just call me Pang Gong. How dare I call myself a master in front of you? You are the real master. And Mr. Su, don't worry. I am satisfied with my life here, so satisfied." , I only regret not coming to Jieke Company one day earlier.”

Pang Liangzhi waved his hands repeatedly. He originally came to Jieke Group and had some mentality of helping the poor through technology.

Although Jieke Group has money, rockets are high-tech and cannot be solved by just spending money.

Only 20 countries in the world have launched thousands of satellites. Among them, the only countries that rely solely on their own national strength to launch their satellites are the Beautiful Country, the Bear Country, the Chinese Country, the French Country, the Asan Country, the British Country, and the Sakura Country.

As for several countries in the Indochina Peninsula, before this, not to mention that they had nothing to do with cutting-edge technology such as rockets, it can only be said that they had nothing to do with it.

But when Pang Liangzhi came to the newly established space department of Jieke Group, especially when he saw Su Jie and various magical materials, his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.

Su Jie can always come up with various bold and novel rocket designs, and the various materials with excellent performance and unheard of materials also allow Pang Liangzhi to free up his hands and carry out innovative designs.

In addition, in terms of funding, Jieke Group has provided sufficient funds, and there are no other so-called lay leaders to dictate.

It can be said that after coming to Jieke Group, Pang Liangzhi felt that his dream had been realized and he was extremely satisfied with his current life.

"This is the best. Our Jieke Group is most in need of talents right now and we are very hungry for talents. If there is anything that is not going well, we must speak up in time."

Su Jie expressed some relief and asked, "How is the installation of the first Kunpeng rocket going now? Nothing went wrong."

"All the steps were completed very well. Thanks to Mr. Su for sending those genetic warriors and spider mechas. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to complete the installation work of such a big rocket."

"Then let's go and take a look now. This Kunpeng rocket is everyone's hard work. I haven't seen its true appearance yet."

Su Jie exchanged greetings with Pang Liangzhi and the others, and then came to the launch site area.

When walking into the launch site, a towering behemoth suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Under the launch base, a huge rocket stood erected. Its height was at least more than 150 meters, as if a giant ship had been erected.

The engineers present had seen it more than once, and Su Jie was mentally prepared.

Only Liu Yingying, seeing this rocket for the first time, subconsciously let out an inappropriate scream.

"This rocket is so big!"

Because Su Jie was in charge of the rocket project, Liu Yingying originally thought that the rocket was only about 50 to 60 meters high, which is also the length of the mainstream rockets nowadays.

But now she sees this behemoth, which is much taller and much bigger.

"The Kunpeng rocket is 185 meters long and 15 meters in diameter. The main body is made of stainless steel. It is equipped with a newly developed and matched Kongpeng engine, a total of 44 units. The fully stacked and fueled Kunpeng rocket has a mass of 11,380 tons. According to the design requirements, the Kunpeng rocket has the ability to deliver 850 tons of payload to the near-Earth orbit of the blue planet and 250 tons of payload to the synchronous transfer orbit."

Pang Liangzhi pushed his glasses. Although he was restraining his calmness, the slightly raised corners of his mouth still showed his inner excitement.

Because once the Kunpeng rocket in front of him is released, it will definitely shock the world.

Listening to Pang Liangzhi's introduction, Liu Yingying widened her eyes and looked at the towering Kunpeng rocket, saying in disbelief: "Isn't this more powerful than Saturn V?"

Compared with Saturn V, the largest rocket in human history, Saturn V has a total weight of nearly 3,000 tons and a height of more than 110 meters, which is far beyond the reach of existing rockets in human history.

Saturn V is the result of a resource accumulation under the high-intensity national competition during the Cold War between the United States and the Russian Bear in the last century. Saturn V has a near-earth carrying capacity of 140 tons, which is difficult to surpass even today's rockets.

Compared with the Kunpeng rocket, Saturn V is also dwarfed.

The weight of the Kunpeng rocket alone is four times that of the Saturn V, and its carrying capacity is far greater than that of the Saturn V, not to mention the comparison with the mainstream rockets today.

Even the most successful rocket Falcon 9, with a length of only 70 meters, a takeoff weight of 549 tons, and a near-Earth orbit payload of 22.8 tons, can only be regarded as a small bean sprout in front of the Kunpeng rocket.

"Yes, the paper data of the Kunpeng rocket we designed far exceeds that of the Saturn V, and it is also the largest rocket ever built by humans. Of course, the premise of all this is that the Kunpeng rocket can be launched successfully, otherwise we cannot say that we have surpassed the Saturn V."

Pang Liangzhi nodded, feeling proud in his heart, after all, he designed and built the largest rocket in human history.

At the same time, he was also worried and worried, because if the rocket failed to launch, he would have to bear the ridicule and doubts of the whole world.

More importantly, he didn't want to disappoint Su Jie's trust and expectations.

Jieke Company gave him such a good treatment and environment, and there was never a shortage of funds and resources.

If the rocket failed to launch, he felt that he would not be able to face Su Jie.

Apart from anything else, the cost of the Kunpeng rocket alone exceeded 1.5 billion US dollars, and this did not include the special materials used in the construction of the Kunpeng rocket.

All the materials were provided by Su Jie, and there was no quotation at all. However, with the extremely powerful performance of those materials, their price is definitely an astronomical figure.

Pang Liangzhi will naturally be under great mental pressure for setting off fireworks on such an expensive big toy.

These days, he has not been able to eat or sleep well. All he thinks about is the Kunpeng rocket. He has checked the rocket for hidden dangers again and again, just because he is worried that some unexpected situation will lead to launch failure.

"Pang Gong, you have to have more confidence in yourself and the design and construction team of the Kunpeng rocket. This rocket will definitely be launched successfully."

Su Jie patted Pang Liangzhi on the shoulder, and he seemed to have more confidence than Pang Liangzhi, the chief designer who supervised the construction of the Kunpeng rocket.

The reason for this is that the variant model of the Kunpeng rocket has already been actually launched in the Tianyuan world.

Although it was still damaged in the triple sky, it is definitely more than enough to change to the space environment of the blue planet.

"By the way, has the launch date been set?"

Suddenly thinking of something, Su Jie asked.

Pang Liangzhi immediately replied, "I was just about to ask you for approval, Mr. Su. We plan to conduct the first flight test of the Kunpeng rocket on the 15th of this month. The rocket observation stations along the way have been built. We have strictly calculated the weather on that day. There will be no problem with the launch on that day."

"Then let's set it on the 15th."

Su Jie nodded slightly and instructed Liu Yingying: "Yingying, make good publicity preparations, send out the news of our launch of the Kunpeng rocket, and invite major media to come and broadcast live. Our Kunpeng rocket must be allowed to take off in the spotlight."

"Okay, I'll do it later and make sure that the news of the Kunpeng rocket launch is known to the world."

Liu Yingying responded, and then asked the publicity department to work overtime to make a big news.

"Mr. Su, why don't we invite the media first, in case the first flight fails"

Pang Liangzhi felt a huge pressure when he heard Su Jie's words. If the rocket launch was broadcast live in front of hundreds of millions of viewers, it would be fine if it succeeded, and everyone would be happy. But if the launch fails and a big poop is produced, it will be embarrassing to the world.

"Nothing will happen. I have confidence in you. It's decided."

After leaving the Chiyang Rocket Launch Center.

In the Mand City Villa, in the living room, Liu Yingying sat on the sofa, holding a tablet in her hand, laughing happily.

"What's wrong?"

Su Jie just came out of the shower and saw Liu Yingying laughing.

"Look at this, the video Boston Dynamics just released introduces their latest developed combat mecha, saying that it will surpass our Jeko Group."

Liu Yingying handed the tablet to Su Jie, with a smile on her face.

Su Jie took the tablet and saw in the video that a mecha similar to a scaled-down version of a biological colony, about 2.5 meters high, was worn by humans and was performing various actions.

Climbing over walls, jumping, climbing stairs, squatting, and controlling machine guns to suppress guns, it also demonstrated its defensive power. Ordinary rifle bullets did not completely penetrate this mecha.

Although its speed and flexibility are not very good, and it is still far behind ordinary people, it has a certain practical effect from the point of being able to defend against rifle bullets.

This video was released, as expected, for Boston Dynamics to show its research results to the outside world, and to continue to ask for research and development funds from the Black Palace, commonly known as sending money.

But the interesting thing is that Liu Yingying immediately showed Su Jie the second video.

The second video also shot this mecha developed by Boston Dynamics, and it seemed to be secretly shot by a researcher.

However, this video is more complete. In the video, you can see that the butt of the mecha is equipped with a long cable, like a intestine, and the other end is connected to a truck with a heavy generator set.

Wherever the mecha goes, the power truck follows, like a nanny.

Obviously, this mecha relies on external power supply to move.

Not only that, in the video footage that Boston Dynamics did not officially cut in, except for the first few minutes of shooting, in the second half of the test, all kinds of problems of this mecha were exposed, such as oil leakage, parts explosion, paralysis on the spot, etc.

I don’t know whether the researcher who shot the video had a change of heart, or it was the work of the rival military giant who didn’t want Boston Dynamics to get involved in the mecha research funds, so he exposed the bottom of Boston Dynamics.

The comments on the video below are full of curses, and there are all kinds of ridicule.

‘Oh my God! How dare you compare with the biological colonization suit of the Jeko Group? It walks not much faster than my grandma, and it relies on external power supply. It’s just garbage. ’

“No, how dare Boston Dynamics use this kind of stuff to smear the Jake Group! Can this kind of thing that travels all the way to the battlefield be used? Or do you plan to equip each mecha with a nanny car on the battlefield? It would be better to use armored vehicles directly. The bulletproof ability and mobility are much better than this rubbish mecha.”

“Shit, I bragged to my friends that the mecha was successfully developed and the Jake Group could be sanctioned immediately. I would treat my friends to a big dinner to celebrate. But you made this. Such a fraudulent company should go bankrupt as soon as possible.”

The most angry people among these comments are the American people. The mecha they dreamed of spent so much of their taxpayers’ money, but they only produced such a thing, and the key is that it is fake. You can imagine everyone’s anger.

After watching the video, Su Jie laughed twice and said, "This beautiful country is really not giving up! I heard that their research on mechas has cost more than 200 billion US dollars."

"That's right. It seems that all these funds have been taken advantage of by those military giants now."

Liu Yingying said gloatingly, hoping that the beautiful country would continue to invest money.

It's not that the technology of the beautiful country is weak. The main mecha has too many difficulties. For example, as seen in the video just now, the development of power mechas is restricted. The battery that drives the mecha is unqualified. This is a major reason.

Because the battery technology is not developed enough and the battery energy density is low, if the mecha is to be driven, the weight of the battery will be very large. The extra weight and armor provided by the mecha are directly eaten up by its own battery, and the mecha naturally loses its meaning.

"This is the consequence of being too radical. The beautiful country wants to catch up with us too much."

Su Jie shook his head. The mecha of the Jieke Group is a dimensionality reduction attack from the Tianyuan world, taking the path of mechanical and biological fusion.

It is impossible for the United States to rely on pure technological power. Unless there is a technological explosion, or an Einstein-level researcher overcomes all the difficulties of mecha, it is possible to build practical mecha.

However, by that time, the mecha of the Jieke Group has been iterated countless times, and it is not afraid of catching up.

"We are building rockets now, and this Kunpeng rocket will really not have any problems."

When Liu Yingying heard Su Jie's words, she thought of the Kunpeng rocket. For the Jieke Group, building such a large rocket right from the start is also a radical behavior, and it is too big a step.

Su Jie pinched Liu Yingying's cheek and smiled, "Why, you don't have confidence in me?"

"No, it's just this big rocket, no one has ever built it and flown it in the past."

"There were no rockets that big in the past because our Jieke Group did not get involved in the rocket field. Now that our Jieke Group is here, everything is naturally different. Tell me yourself, how many firsts have our Jieke Group won? Breakthroughs in various fields, such as our mechas, have always been imitated and never surpassed."

Su Jie hugged Liu Yingying's slender waist and began to explore dishonestly.

Liu Yingying felt Su Jie's mischievous big hand, and her pretty face gradually turned red.

However, what Su Jie said was also the truth. Mecha research is not only the United States, but also various countries have invested heavily in research, wanting to follow up in the field of mechas and master the latest military innovations.

After all, the superior performance of mechas has been tested by the Jieke Group through actual combat. Whether it is the biological colonization suits worn by genetic warriors, the spider main battle mechas, or the derivative models transformed using the spider mecha chassis, they are all being imitated by countries around the world.

There is no such thing as plagiarism or copycat in the military field. If you can imitate and build it, you are awesome. No one will sue you for it.

But even if it is imitated and learned by the whole world, after such a long time, no force can still build a practical mecha.

At most, there are some single-soldier exoskeletons that can assist soldiers, reduce the force on their lower limbs, allow soldiers to carry more equipment and walk longer distances, but this has nothing to do with mecha.

"Well, it's not dark yet!"

Before Liu Yingying figured out the problem, Su Jie had already picked up his gun and mounted his horse. His worries naturally disappeared and turned into a low moan.
