Chapter 537 They make planes, we make flying saucers!

Luo Jia went to COMAC Group for a large aircraft project. After getting off the bus, he met Li He, the president at the exhibition center. He led two fat white men to visit. After asking, he found out that the white men were officials from the European and North American Aviation Administration.

COMAC wants to sell the planes all over the world, and first needs to get the airworthiness certificate issued by Europe and North America, but Luo Jia found that things did not seem that simple. It was in the interest of competition. Europe and North America were not willing to issue airworthiness certificates, and they seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for them.

With a slight smile, Luo Jia took the initiative to greet him and introduced himself. He learned that the official sent by the North American Air Control Bureau was called Farrell, and the European Air Control Bureau was called Collins.

Their eyes looked at Luo Jia were not friendly. After all, in the context of Western media, Luo Jia, the leader of the Iron Straight Boy Group, is a notorious demon who desperately attacks the Western industry and hires a large number of rogue lawyers to launch legal encirclement of competitors, which is very abominable.

"This test flight will be held over the East China Sea. We have prepared a ground propulsion demonstration and all-round monitoring installed on the test flight aircraft so that everyone can understand the performance of the aircraft more comprehensively." Li He explained to everyone.

Test flight is a relatively dangerous thing. Except for the two test pilots, the other crew members are robots sent by Xingchen Technology. Luo Jia and others observe remotely on the ground. Thousands of sensors will collect a large amount of data, establish test flight models, and find hidden problems based on the collected data.

After leaving the exhibition hall, Luo Jia saw his own aircraft engine in the open yard. Although Xingchen AVIC also uses a turbofan structure, the energy comes from electricity, and the engine is an ultrasonic motor, not a traditional internal combustion engine.

The other parts of the aircraft are consistent with the past designs, but with the efforts of StarChen Technology, many domestic supporting facilities have been made. The flight control is written by the Software Department, the fuselage is customized by the Materials Research Institute, and the main control computer, landing gear, tires, and even the cabin seats are all from the chemical fiber factory under StarChen Chemical.

Western technology has also used some, such as Musk's Starlink. It has to be said that at this stage, Starlink is really a miraculous existence. The only starlink network on the earth. If an aircraft wants to connect to the Internet at a height of 30,000 feet, there is only one, and there is no other choice. In addition, small components such as airspeed tubes and static pressure holes are also imported.

For some reason, Luo Jia just didn't have any surprises and felt that everything in front of her was terrible.

Ultrasonic motors are clearly a powerful tool for the era of the universe. They are nicknamed space motors and have stronger capabilities, but they are limited to subsonic flights.

It has clearly adopted so many unique technologies, but the aircraft seems to be no different from decades ago, with ordinary gliding and landing and ordinary rotor steering.

Alas ~

Luo Jia frowned. As a person who would die without innovation, he really couldn't be interested in this kind of aircraft product that only switched from fuel to electricity, and the rest of the designs were also common to the last century.

The engineers excitedly introduced that the large aircraft had excellent performance, but what Luo Jia saw was a waste of talent.

What made Luo Jia even more dissatisfied was that Western experts pointed at them and tested according to their standards and comply with the rules they set. All decision-making powers are under the control of the West.

Xu Chunbiao was still driving on the way back to the company, but the atmosphere in the car was much more depressing than when he came. Luo Jia was thinking, and Shen Lang also looked at the river outside the window for a long time without saying a word. Xu Chunbiao felt the strangeness of the two, so he chose to shut up and not disturb them.

He returned to the company in silence and got out of the car. Shen Lang was about to go to the office, but Luo Jia planned to lie back to the meditation center. He always had to lie down when he was studying, and then opened more and more folders in his mind. As the golden dome was constantly transmitted over the years, Luo Jia's learning pressure was also increasing year by year. He had to spend more than half of his time learning new knowledge.

"How do you feel about the big airplane project?" Luo Jia asked Shen Lang.

"I think it's always troublesome to projects that cannot be completely controlled by us." Shen Lang smiled and grabbed his hair and said, "If it were our own projects, the results might be different."

A seemingly insignificant sentence made Luo Jia’s eyes lit up. He was indeed a rare military genius. Shen Lang hit the nail on the head and said the most important thing. The big aircraft project was not dominated by Xingchen Technology, so it was impossible to penetrate their will in the project. This is the root of all troubles.

Assuming that Xingchen Technology is the main body of the big aircraft project, will they care about the difficulties made by the West?

Obviously, it won't.

...

The next morning, the Administration held a regular meeting.

Luo Jia was rarely late. When he entered the conference room, the others had been waiting for a long time. Cao Yuan even took out a handheld machine and started playing. Although Xingchen Technology has been trying hard to resist the invasion of foreign cultures, it will take some time to change the cultural influence that has long been deeply rooted.

For example, Nintendo's handheld console, in the context of mobile games rampant, has gradually become a niche product, which was invented in the last century, but it still has loyal fans like Cao Yuan and never leaves it. This is the power of culture.

Nokia, which was once extremely powerful in the mobile phone field, will collapse immediately once the product fails, but the influence of culture can last for generations, including Luo Jia himself, and now he still likes to watch Japanese comics. It can be seen that it is no joke to call culture the world's number one hegemony.

"Sorry, I'm late." Luo Jia said with a smile. This approachable boss has never had airs and will review his mistakes.

"Have you been in a while? You don't look like your face is washed." An Ran muttered as he looked at Luo Jia's dark face.

In fact, Luo Jia's mental state has improved a lot recently. Since discovering the secret website, Luo Jia has mastered the ability to travel and learn in her sleep.

Login to the Secret Network is a kind of mental separation. The body is clearly resting, but Luo Jia's thinking is learning. He can even go to the Blue Star County where Lan Yu is located through the Flower of Reincarnation, so the situation of studying all night is greatly reduced.

"I went to see the big plane with Shen Lang yesterday, and I had some ideas, so I did it overnight." Luo Jia explained.

Everyone was slightly stunned, and there was inevitably a little more anticipation in their hearts.

The conference room contains breakfast prepared by the Administration Department, both Chinese and Western, and has a wide variety. After all, the regular meeting of the Administration Bureau is also called a breakfast meeting. Several leaders gather together to communicate while they are having breakfast. The meeting is short and fast, and it will not delay other work.

Luo Jia picked up a set of pancakes with his left hand, pulled the whiteboard with his right hand, and wrote quickly.

"Our plan needs to change." Luo Jia said in a deep voice: "According to the company's predetermined goals, first solve the problem of superconducting, then lay the superconducting roads and railways, and finally realize magnetic levitation. Although this plan is perfect, it takes too long."

Everyone nodded. As the world's largest scientific research group, StarChen Technology has many plans. Magnetic levitation is the long-term plan, which takes more than ten years. After all, even with sufficiently cheap superconducting materials and large-scale transformation of roads and railways is not easy.

Reality is not a novel. The emergence of magnetic levitation will inevitably solve the superconducting problem first. Superconducting materials that are cheap and can be produced on a large scale are the pre-technology of magnetic levitation, and they are not just about installing a few high-power electromagnetic coils on cars.

After eating the pancakes, Luo Jia drank a few more sips of mineral water, and then said to everyone: "To solve the problem of the plane, you may not necessarily learn to build planes in the West. We can also use other things to kill the planes!"

Kill the plane?

Everyone was surprised, obviously their thinking was impacted, but this was not surprising. Luo Jia always had the habit of being whimsical.

"Yes, we have to think about a question. What is the essence of an aircraft?" Luo Jia looked around the audience and said in a deep voice: "The essence of an aircraft is transportation. As long as it can achieve fast and ultra-long-distance transportation, whether we use aircraft or Dumbo, the result will be the same. It is nothing more than sending people and goods from one place to another in the shortest time."

"The problem now is that the right to speak in the airplane is not controlled by us. If we build aircraft, we must meet Western standards and be stuck by them."

"So we have to find another way, take a path that they have not walked before and cannot control us. We will kill them by overtaking on a curve and get rid of the so-called Western standards..."

Luo Jia talked freely, and everyone was excited to listen to it. Overtaking on the curve has always been the habit of Xingchen Technology. Faced with the rules set by the West, Xingchen Technology broke the rules again and again and forcibly overtaken, leaving countless legendary and wonderful results.

The conference room was silent, and everyone was waiting for Luo Jia's decision and was very excited.

However, when Luo Jia expressed his expectations, everyone was startled.

"Since the West has controlled the products of aircraft, we will not build aircraft, we will build flying saucers!" Luo Jia said in a deep voice.

Pooh ~

After hearing this, everyone almost squirted, what the hell is the UFO? Have you read too many science fiction novels?

"I knew you would think things wrong." Luo Jia shook her head and said, "I admit that the name UFO was influenced by science fiction novels and magazines. There are some gimmicks. To be precise, my plan is called the butterfly vertical take-off and landing convenient public transportation system."

Vertical take-off and landing!?

Everyone present is smart, and they quickly find the key point from Luo Jia's words. Isn't it even necessary for aircraft that can take off and land vertically?

Modern airports are often dozens of kilometers away from the city, and it takes a long time to go back and forth, which is a huge pain point. If the vertical take-off and landing system can operate in the city, wouldn’t it be as convenient as taking a bus?

etc.

Luo Jia also said another word, public transportation?

Is he planning to use vertical take-off and landing UFOs to create a brand new mode of transportation?

If this mode of transportation can be successful, it will not be a problem of transforming the aircraft, but a change of the entire transportation system!

Big plan!

This is definitely a big plan!

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at Luo Jia, and saw a bright sunny smile on his face.
Chapter completed!
