Chapter 535 The large aircraft project can no longer be delayed
The emergence of the Eye of Stars and the Star Map has amazed the world and brought devastating blows to its competitors. Google has the function of street view as a moat, and has not yet been stripped off by Stars Technology. The rest, such as Baidu and Alibaba, have fallen apart in a very short time and are in a defeat.
Half a month after Star Map was launched, only Star Technology and Google were left in the global map products. Although Star Map is extremely powerful, Luo Jia still has no way to eliminate Google Map. On the one hand, it is because of the resistance of North American authorities, and on the other hand, it is the self-protection of Western nationalism.
"Still resist the invasion of China to the death! Defend our Internet!"
"Reject technological colonization and stop the barbarians of China!"
"Even if the Star Map is good, we don't need to! Be a backbone Westerner! Support Google's fight against Star Technology!"
When the Western world, which claims to be free and open, was facing a crisis, the xenophobia they erupted far more severe than China in the past. They defended Los Angeles, Paris, and Amsterdam. Countless slogans were standing on the streets, and the slogans to fight against Chinese imperialism were heard everywhere.
Under the new situation of strong confrontation between the East and the West, Star Operating System, Star Search and other products took five or six years to complete the global monopoly, let alone the Star Map, which was only half a month after it was launched.
The West will save Google at all costs, just like we wanted to save the national brand that was losing money back then. In terms of the desire to survive, the East and the West are actually no different.
Because the Eye of Stars is biased towards the scientific research community, the vibration caused by the Eye of Stars is not reflected in the public. It is mainly because scientists in the field of astronomical observations feel the powerful threat of the Eye of Stars and feel the pins and pins for a while.
Whether Weber in North America or Gaia in Europe, they are all younger brothers in front of the Eye of Stars. The West's delusion of using the Starlink plan to suppress the research on astronomical research in China was completely lost. When the near-Earth orbit was full of communication satellites, the biggest victim was actually the West itself.
However, Musk did not slow down the Starlink plan. The Super Falcon Rockets are still taking off, sending more and more communication satellites to low-Earth orbit.
Things are developing today. In fact, there is no way out for both the East and the West. Even if you bite the bullet, you can only fight to the end.
...
In late May, Star Technology Group.
Luo Jia frowned and wrote phrases on the whiteboard. Some of these phrases are projects that the company is already working on, such as space elevators, such as metabolic control, or controlled fusion, ion propulsion, and trititanium alloy.
But there are more people on the whiteboard, waiting for challenges, such as laser technology, quantum technology, agricultural technology, planetary environment transformation technology, starship technology, warp engine technology, transition engine technology, gravitational wave radar technology, etc.
"It's really troublesome, there's so much work to do."
Luo Jia said, he threw down the ink pen, put on his coat and walked out, preparing to attend the regular meeting of the Administration Bureau. The whiteboard meeting has always existed, constantly reminding Luo Jia not to slack off at all, and the road ahead is still a long way away.
Soon after, Luo Jia appeared in the conference room of the Administration Bureau. While drinking soy milk, she ate the roujiamo sent by her secretary and listened to the reports of several responsible persons.
"I have a good news here to tell you." When the regular meeting was about to end, An Ran said with a smile: "The aircraft engine we customized for COMAC has finally passed the technology verification and will be put into production on a large scale."
"Aero engines are going to be offline in batches?"
"This is really good news. Then we will ask COMAC to buy a few domestic aircraft and eliminate the current Airbus and Gulfstream aircraft."
"When the COMAC project started, we hadn't joined the company yet. In short, this is probably the longest time-consuming project we took?" Wen Chengling asked curiously.
Luo Jia felt emotion after hearing everyone's remarks and turned her eyes out the window.
The aircraft project and the automobile project have been launched almost at the same time. In more than four years, domestic electric vehicles have captured the world and have built 55% of the country. However, domestic large aircraft project has not even even one aircraft left the production line.
An Ran shrugged and said, "After all, the aircraft project is led by the national team. We are just a collaborative unit and do not have the final decision-making power of the project."
"And the reason behind this project took such a long time is very complicated. First of all, what we supply to COMAC is not only aircraft engines, flight control systems, main structures, and even landing gears and tires. They are all supplied by us, which is a real big project."
Li Moran echoed: "That's right. The software department still has more than 1,200 engineers working on COMAC. In terms of hardware, COMAC uses our production line, our five-axis machine tools, and our robots. In more than four years, COMAC's project has almost been launched again."
"In addition, aircraft are not cars after all, and any trivial mistakes may cause irreparable huge losses. Not only does the hardware need to be tested over and over again, but the flight control we wrote has also been repeatedly modified to meet the strict aviation standards."
An Ran and Li Moran both thought that the towing period was normal, because the aviation standards were really too strict, which was completely different from building cars. However, Luo Jia saw Shen Lang sitting opposite him frowned.
"Shen Lang, do you understand the big aircraft project?" Luo Jia asked intentionally.
Shen Lang nodded, "The Entertainment Group has helped COMAC do public relations, shoot advertising videos, etc. According to my observation, COMAC Group is actually tied up in the airplane project, and unknowingly falls into the prisoner's dilemma."
Shen Lang's words were a little shocking, and everyone was stunned and signaled him to continue to say it.
"The teacher has said more than once that our ultimate goal is not only to develop technology, but also to learn to set standards and become people who master the rules of the game. The real difficulty of COMAC is that they do not master the standards."
"The aircraft standards were formulated by the West. If COMAC wants to obtain a global airworthiness certificate, it must comply with European and American standards. If it does not meet the standards, even if our aircraft is built, it cannot fly international routes and can only be used within its own territory."
"Commercedes-Air Group is unwilling to be willing to fly only in China, because everyone knows that after joining the power of Star Technology, we have completely surpassed Boeing and Airbus in core capabilities. However, no matter how excellent the product is, it will eventually be handed over to others for approval. This is undoubtedly a tragedy and also the pain of COMAC."
Shen Lang is worthy of being a military genius. The mall is often as cruel as war. Through observation, he discovered the real crux of COMAC, that is, he did not have the right to speak in the industry.
In the airplane project, can you not bring Western games?
Of course, it is possible. Airworthiness certificates are issued from China and flying within a few small countries around it. There is no problem at all.
However, without a European and American airworthiness certificate, 90% of the countries in the world would not buy a Chinese plane. Even domestic airlines would not want to use domestic airplanes to carry out European and American routes, because aircraft that do not have European and American airworthiness certificates cannot land at most airports around the world.
This is the prisoner's dilemma of COMAC. They are eager to prove themselves, but do not have the right to make rules. They can only accommodate them again and again, and work hard to get an airworthiness certificate issued by Europe and the United States.
The absolute power of Europe and the United States has been dragging it down again and again. Until more than four years later, domestic large aircraft have not been taken off the line. Xingchen Technology, which is responsible for providing core technology, has actually been prepared.
"Why can't COMAC get rid of the West and work alone?" Wen Chengfeng asked in confusion: "We have paved the way for them, just move forward boldly. What's the difficulty?"
Shen Lang shook his head gently, "Teacher Wen, things are not that simple. You may not know that COMAC has been preparing for the large aircraft project for more than 20 years and has spent a lot of money and resources to maintain its connections in the West. Once it decides to do it alone, all previous efforts will be wasted. This requires the courage of a hero to cut off his arm."
Well…
Everyone sighed. Shen Lang is a young young man who looks at the problem but likes to hit the essence. He seems to be able to succeed by taking one step forward. However, this step has been delayed, which has caused the prisoner's dilemma of COMAC.
After a pause, Shen Lang continued to add: "No one can blame this for this, and COMAC does not want to do this. When they started the big aircraft project, our competition with the West was not as fierce as it is today."
At this time, Luo Jia stood up and said, "The matter involves the interests of the national team. We cannot make good judgments. Let's do this. When the flight test the day after tomorrow, I will go to COMAC in person."
Immediately, Luo Jia turned her gaze to Shen Lang and added: "Arrang the work at hand, and you and I will go."
"Okay teacher." Shen Lang nodded and agreed.
"Then let's get here today." Luo Jia immediately announced the news of the end of the meeting.
Leaving the company, Luo Jia returned to the meditation center and logged into the Secret Network.
He now has a party with Black Sword and Lan Yu every few days. Unfortunately, Lan Yu is busy sorting out the territory abandoned by his tribe members. Black Sword's fleet is still resting and it will take some time to re-execute the mission. They do not need the help of Luo Jia, the pilot for the time being.
To be honest, Luo Jia hopes that the two of them will beg for themselves. The more favors they owe themselves, the greater the space that Luo Jia can operate in the future. In this day, 996 is not a blessing but an exploitation. If aliens owe them favors, that is the real blessing.
After all, the old saying goes, rely on parents at home and friends at home. Maybe one day, our small broken ball will need the help of alien friends.
Time flies, and the day after tomorrow is coming. Luo Jia gets up early and takes Shen Lang to COMAC Group in person.
