Chapter 126, Promoting Black Gold
The land of Huaxia Mansion, Tianfu Aviation Research Institute, Li Fu came to this place again and couldn't help but savor it carefully. Everything here seemed very comfortable, and there was no trace of the impatience of modern society. Whether it was the passers-by walking slowly and leisurely, Or perhaps everything here seems unhurried and unhurried, making people want to stay here for the rest of their lives.
"Xiao Li, I haven't seen you for a long time. What brings you, a busy person, here?"
Just when Li Fu was looking at the scenery outside in a daze, Liu Shiying's hearty voice came over. This time Li Fu came specially to visit Liu Shiying, and naturally he came to promote his material company's new material-black gold.
"Mr. Liu, it's been a long time since I last saw you. I miss you, and I just happened to have something to come over, so I came over to see you. Last time I was in the Imperial Capital, my teacher Liu Yi asked me to tell you that you can come to the Imperial Capital when you have time. Just for fun, he recently got a bottle of good wine just for you."
Li Fu was also very happy to see Liu Shiying again, and smiled and brought over the words of his teacher Liu Yi.
"It's strange that your teacher, with his stingy appearance, would be willing to entertain me with good wine. If he was really sincere, he should have called me long ago."
"I remember when we were studying together, your teacher was notoriously stingy. He hid a pack of cigarettes very tightly, but we still couldn't find it no matter how hard we looked. In the end, where do you think he hid the cigarettes?"
"He hid the cigarette in his underwear, so that from then on we didn't dare to take the cigarette he offered us, haha."
Liu Shiying was very talkative. When it came to Li Fu's teacher Liu Yi, he even told all the scandals of Liu Yi's past.
"Haha, my teacher still has this problem. It seems that I will pay more respect to him in the future."
Li Fu also laughed. Last year, he and Liu Shiying studied plasma engines and aerospace fighters together. Although the two were very different in age, they had been friends for years and chatted very much.
In the back garden of Liu Shiying's residence at the institute, Li Fu and Liu Shiying were drinking tea and chatting happily. Naturally, they talked about the plasma engine that they had studied together. Let’s talk about the current global space race.
"Relying on the powerful advantages of our aerospace fighters, China has frequently traveled to and from space since the second half of last year, transporting massive amounts of materials into space. Even scientists can now go to space to conduct scientific experiments. No, It has to be an astronaut.”
"Now our Tiangong is larger than all the man-made objects in the entire space combined. There are more than 30 astronauts or scientists living in it at any time, and they can quickly travel to and from the ground at any time."
When talking about China's current space development, Liu Shiying is full of pride, because China's current achievements in space are all due to aerospace fighters, and the aerospace fighters were built by Liu Shiying's team.
"Well, the advantages of the aerospace plane are too obvious. It is safe and low-cost to travel to and from space. It is very convenient and fast. It is also very simple to surpass other countries."
Li Fu also nodded, and he was very clear about the advantages of the aerospace plane, an epoch-making product, which was definitely not comparable to previous launches of spacecraft based on rockets.
"The country has now sent a lot of detection equipment to the moon. I estimate that the Chang'e moon landing will begin soon. Just thinking about it makes people excited. We, the descendants of the Chinese people, will be the first to land on the moon in this century. "
Liu Shiying also talked about the most hotly discussed topic in China. In the huge space plan proposed by China last year, it was clearly stated that it would carry out manned moon landings in 2019 and establish a permanent manned station on the moon. The base is already low in April of 2019. The manned moon landing activities are expected to start operating soon. As top scientists in the aviation and aerospace fields, Liu Shiying and Li Fu will definitely be invited there. of.
"With aerospace planes, China will create countless firsts, just by landing on the moon. In the future, we will also land on Mars, occupy Mars, mine asteroids, and even colonize the universe in the future."
Li Fu smiled and didn't take it seriously. He was used to seeing countless powerful cosmic civilizations from the seeds of civilization. The satellite moon that landed on the earth was nothing at all. There were many powerful civilizations in the universe that ruled the very vast starry sky. Earthlings Still very small.
"Landing on Mars, occupying Mars, and colonizing the universe are still too far away. Although we have aerospace planes, the cost of building them is too expensive. So far, China has only built 4 of them. , the original plan for 2019 was to build only 10 aircraft.”
Liu Shiying shook his head. Although he also wanted to see such a day, the development of science and technology is accumulated step by step. Apart from anything else, the high cost of the aerospace plane alone is enough to give China a headache. .
"Old Liu, to be honest, I am actually here to sell you a product."
When he said this, Li Fu pretended to be mysterious.
"Promote products? Recommend products to me? I'm very curious now. What good things do you have to sell to me? It should probably be some high-tech product."
When Liu Shiying heard this, his eyes widened, then he touched his chin and started to guess.
"To be precise, it is to sell a product to the country, a product that can reduce the cost of aerospace aircraft ten times."
Li Fu continued to lie.
"What? The cost has been reduced by ten times? How is this possible? What on earth is it?"
When Liu Shiying heard this, he stood up immediately. It is no joke that the cost of an aerospace aircraft is reduced by ten times. You must know that the cost of an aerospace aircraft is more than 30 billion. This is only the cost price. China is now investing huge amounts of money. In the aerospace field, the company only plans to build 10 aircraft a year. Even China cannot afford any more, which shows how expensive this aerospace plane is.
This is because China has concentrated a lot of resources in order to vigorously develop space technology and promote the development of the space industry. Only then is it willing to plan to build 10 aerospace planes. If it were done before, let alone 10, it would only be able to build a few a year at most. Even if it’s the limit.
Now Li Fu actually said that there is a product that can reduce the cost of an aerospace plane by ten times, which means that the cost of an aerospace plane has been reduced to 3 billion Chinese dollars. 3 billion Chinese dollars is nothing for the entire huge China. What, I can handle it easily.
Not to mention other things, the funds to build 10 aerospace planes can be used to build 100 aerospace planes at once. This has an unparalleled effect on the development of China's space science and technology and the increase of China's aviation and aerospace military strength. China's proposal to space The slogan of industrial expansion will soon be realized.
If there are 100 aerospace planes, this space can basically be declared as China's back garden. You can go up anytime and anywhere. The space industry can really develop. By then, the resources of the moon will be mined, plus the space management will be done. Factories, agriculture, energy extraction, etc. can all be realized very quickly.
"Yes, reduced by ten times. Recently, our company's Materials Research Institute has developed a brand new material. It can perfectly replace the core materials on the existing aerospace aircraft, and its cost is only 1/1 of the original material. 10. Do you think the cost can be reduced ten times?”
Li Fu nodded very seriously, then took out a piece of relevant data on black gold materials and showed it to Liu Shiying. Then he drank tea and waited quietly. Li Fu knew very well that the country would definitely not allow the circulation of materials like black gold. Out, but Li Fu wanted to make money from this material, so he could only sell it to the state.
"This, this, it's unbelievable that you can actually research new materials, and the cost is so cheap. You are truly worthy of being named the genius of the century by Time Magazine!"
Liu Shiying read the data carefully and couldn't help but sigh. As a researcher of plasma engines and the chief designer of aerospace aircraft, although he is not an expert in materials, he also knows very well the needs of aerospace aircraft. What kind of material? After reading the data of black gold, he knew that black gold fully met the requirements and could perfectly replace existing materials.
"I'm just lucky. A blind cat meets a dead mouse. Old Liu, see if the country needs to purchase this material. If so, I can provide it here. The price is negotiable."
Li Fu smiled slightly and shook his head. What a genius of the century and scientific monster. If it weren't for the civilization seeds of the super-civilized Han Dynasty's technological empire, Li Fu would be just a very ordinary person now. He is really lucky.
"Of course we need to purchase a lot of materials. I will report the situation to my superiors now. Someone will contact you soon. Xiao Li, there is really no problem that you can't solve. The country is still in vain. When I was worried about the high cost of building the spacecraft, you came up with new materials even in the nick of time. You are worthy of being a national treasure. "
Liu Shiying nodded vigorously. Such cheap new materials are really important to China. The cost of aerospace aircraft has been reduced by ten times. China's space industry can be said to have wings to take off in an instant.
"It's just a tenfold reduction. If the country allows me to build an aerospace plane, I can continue to lower the price. At that time, as long as it gives me 1 billion Chinese dollars, I can sell the aerospace plane to the country."
Li Fu's heart moved slightly, his eyes rolled, and then he said very confidently. What Li Fu said was naturally not nonsense, but had a purpose. The aerospace plane is the main means of transportation in space in the future, and Li Fu naturally wanted to obtain it. License to produce aerospace aircraft.
