Chapter 63: Following the Market

"There is no problem with the technical principle at all. We have shown the inspiration diagram of the ultra-low-speed hydraulic system based on the spherical hinge structure and the parallel linkage beam to Mr. Liu. The idea is amazing. Although it is only a rough design, it also mentioned some technical problems. key point."

"If you follow his train of thought, the hydraulic module of the hot isostatic pressing equipment can be solved in a month at most—of course, I'm talking about the solution in the form of a laboratory, not mass production."

"Not to mention capacitors, the first batch of capacitors manufactured according to the process documentation has been rolled out, and the theoretical performance is more than three times higher than that of the old process."

"To sum up, our bottleneck in the hot isostatic pressing equipment has actually been solved."

In the conference room of Institute 606, Wang Xianguo couldn't hide his excitement. After receiving the technical document forwarded by Lin Yongming, he immediately organized a verification operation, and the result did not disappoint him.

This also means that the hole card that I dreamed of before is now in my hands.

We can build a hot isostatic press!

We have the strength to turn the tables at critical moments!

Of course, it is impossible for us to achieve mass production in a short period of time, and it is difficult to use laboratory-level hot isostatic pressing equipment to support the No. 22 project and manufacture various parts required for the engine and airframe.

But the question is, do you dare to bet?

Does DSI dare to bet? Does QUINTUS dare to bet? Do the Yankees dare to bet?

If we really make us anxious, we will bury our heads in self-research, and when the results come out, it will not be as simple as "completely closing the market".

We will reversely eat all your markets with relatively cheap costs and better services!

Therefore, from the moment when these two technologies were born, the balance of negotiation has begun to tilt secretly.

Wang Xianguo was emotional, and so were the many researchers listening in the audience.

"The large-capacity capacitor is solved? That's not just a problem with the hot isostatic press. Hey, Brother Liu, I remember that you had a project related to electromagnetics before. Could it be useful to share this achievement in the past?"

"Do you think it's useful? I made a report yesterday. I really didn't expect the breakthrough to come so fast, but I don't think this technology should be applied first to our electromagnetic bomb electromagnetic project. It is estimated that it will be given to photovoltaics and EMUs first." or something like that."

"It's awesome! I don't know which laboratory produced the results. The structure of the hydraulic system is also very new, and it may have great potential in the future."

"That's not necessarily true. The limitations of this design are relatively large. I guess only HIP can be used, but it is already very powerful if it can be worked out."

"Yeah, once HIP came out, our metallurgical industry level has leaped forward at least 5 years, not to mention the fission effect brought by large-capacity capacitors-hey, have you ever heard of someone doing research in this area before? ?”

"I heard that Jiangxi is making capacitors, but the results are not produced by them. I have already asked."

"Then I really don't know which institute it is, it's too low-key."

In the joyous and heated discussion among everyone, this briefing will end soon, and the next stage of work has also been clarified:

Taking the hot isostatic pressing equipment as the basic condition, we will fully promote the development of the No. 22 project.

Re-adjust the priorities of various tasks to ensure that the first prototype will be manufactured within 4 months.

This is not an easy task, but Wang Xianguo is confident.

The heavy haze that was originally weighing on his head was completely dispelled by a mysterious and powerful "college student" in an incredible way.

It's like the dark clouds were smashed by the hurricane, and the sun that was originally hidden behind was exposed.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind:

The younger generation is still like this, we need to work harder!

So, he immediately booked a small meeting room, convened relevant experts, and began to discuss two key technologies.

According to the professional advice of the business personnel in the procurement team, after asking for instructions, their current negotiation strategy has changed.

That is, to expose the hole card to a limited extent, and then use this hole card to leverage the already deadlocked negotiations.

Therefore, what can be said and what cannot be said has become particularly important.

Two days later, a shocking news was uniformly published in major Chinese newspapers and media:

my country has made significant progress in the fields of hot isostatic pressing and superplastic forming, which will greatly promote the development of my country's metallurgical industry.

What is even more surprising is that this news is not just a simple report, but also includes a large number of technical breakthrough principles, and even mentions some less sensitive data.

At first glance, it seems that the Chinese government is going to do a science popularization for its citizens.

Most people didn't pay attention to this news after seeing it, but banana people seized the opportunity and began to spread nonsense on the Internet, such as "winning", "a big country is a big country", "if you have money to research and develop such useless things It's better to allocate funds to children in mountainous areas" and other mentally retarded arguments are endless.

However, only a very small number of people can see the meaning behind this report.

Washington, in an office of the White House.

Several men in suits and leather shoes sat around the desk, looking at the paper report and commenting on it.

"HIP and superplastic forming have made significant progress. No wonder the purchase of AL-31FN was stopped before, and it really planned to make its own engine."

"However, I don't know if they plan to optimize the design based on the WS-10 template, or reinvent the wheel?"

asked a man wearing glasses.

"The high probability is the optimized design, and it is obviously the optimization of the material. The structural design should not change much."

"Otherwise, there will be too little time."

The white-haired old man sitting beside him replied.

"It makes sense. What do you think? Is this technological breakthrough a big problem? Will it pose a threat to us?"

"It's within our expectations—the previous judgment was that they had a technological breakthrough in a certain field, so they chose to overthrow the J-10 project and start over."

"Before we thought it was a breakthrough in airframe design and aviation engine structure design, but now, they have indeed gone a step further."

"The key technical difficulties of hot isostatic pressing equipment have been solved, and the manufacture of equipment is not difficult for a nationwide system like theirs. New materials will appear later."

"If their progress is fast enough, it is estimated that within 5-10 years, the standard third-generation aircraft will be officially in service."

"Within 10-20 years, the first flight of the fourth-generation aircraft is possible."

After a pause, the old man continued:

"If you look at the timeline longer, this small breakthrough doesn't actually have a big impact on the overall situation. At most, our prediction needs to be adjusted a few months forward."

"However, in the short term, our strategy needs some adjustments."

"Inform DSI to resume negotiations with Huaxia."

"There is a high probability that they will not import hot isostatic pressing equipment on a large scale in the future, at least we have to make money first!"

Hearing what the old man said, the man with glasses asked hesitantly:

"But DSI has reached an agreement with QUINTUS. Although it is verbal, if we break the contract... it will be harmful to our reputation"

"To the honor of DSI."

The old man interrupted him and went on:

"What's so important about a merchant's reputation?"

"They're just following the market."
