Rebirth 09: Synthetic Male God

Chapter 762 That’s right! I am an external expert from "Jade Rabbit"!

Zhou Rui arrived at the command center and was stunned as soon as he opened the door.

I found that there were a lot of people here, which was completely different from the previous Buddhist observations.

He was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

Today is the seventh day of my retreat.

In other words, it was Chang'e III's ninth day in space.

It is the day to switch from the "far moon orbit" to the "near moon elliptical orbit".

No wonder there are so many people
I almost forgot that I am still an external expert of "Jade Rabbit".

Zhou Rui shed a drop of cold sweat and completely forgot about it.
Seems a bit incompetent
The target of this trip: Director Sun, who is looking at the big screen with a solemn expression.

Zhou Rui adjusted his expression, pretended to understand the situation well, and came to Director Sun's side.

Director Sun: "Mr. Zhou, do you have something to ask me about?"

Director Sun frowned deeply. One can imagine the pressure in his position:

Director Sun asked many more questions, and Zhou Rui answered them one by one.

With a swish, it was all over, and he didn’t even feel it!
Zhou Rui could only repeat it briefly.

After a while, he said solemnly: "Tomorrow early morning."

Director Sun suddenly turned his head:
"What the hell! Real or fake?!"

"I might need to digest it for a while."

After a while, Director Sun finally understood the situation completely.

Zhou Rui:?
Three minutes passed during this period of digestion, until Zhou Rui felt that Director Sun had indigestion.

Those reports always feel like they go in through the left ear and out through the right nostril.

Zhou Rui nodded and said that he had completed the "Intelligent Attitude Adjustment System" as promised and modified it on the "Chang Er C", and planned to apply for a launch date.

"When will it change course?"

As the director who takes command on the spot, he has too many affairs.

It's not that the director doesn't work hard, it's that Mr. Zhou is too fast!

But after all, during this period of time, the entire Xichang base and even the entire China Aerospace Corporation, the most focused focus was on "Chang'e-3", and the information gradually became out of touch.

Although it was not a shameful matter, Director Sun took Zhou Rui to his temporary office because the matter was serious.

Director Sun listened quietly, and then stared at the big screen with a solemn expression.

An exclamation made many people in the solemn command center turn their heads.

Although he went to the preparation field a few days ago and opened his eyes with a knife on his butt, he was also notified of the subsequent "drop test".

Zhou Rui looked at his watch, it was only around four in the afternoon.
So you came here so early to take advantage of the air conditioning?

After brewing a cup of hot tea with mixed feelings, Director Sun said slowly: "Tell me again, is it really finished? At what stage?"

After careful consideration, he said, "I understand. According to the agreement, I will report the launch plan for the 'Long Two C-F'."

According to rules, when launching a rocket, the International Space Organization must be notified. (Weapons and missiles are not included in this list. Whether or not you notify us depends on your relationship)
Even as a large country with a vast territory, such experimental low-orbit launches will not affect other people at all, so they should take the initiative to inform them.

At least create a sense of "good neighborliness".

Among them, the negative example is "A Bang", who has been criticized repeatedly. Today he posted this, and tomorrow he posted that, which made everyone nervous, just because he did not inform the plan.

Belongs to "black hair".

Even if it is an ordinary satellite, people around it will point their noses at it and scold it, saying it is weapons research.

Of course, I was forced to have no choice, because I was sanctioned, international organizations refused to join me, the place was small, I just flew abroad, I was surrounded by two enemies, and I was used to being scolded.

Whether it is fair or not is open to debate, but China Aerospace is still the defender and beneficiary of this set of game rules. Notifying the International Space Organization is the first step to enter the "pre-launch" stage.

Director Sun continued: "But after all, it is a brand new modified arrow type. Only with comprehensive and detailed safety verification by the rocket engineering team can the 'tower assembly' be truly arranged. I hope you can understand this."

Zhou Rui was not surprised, nodded and said: "Of course, I won't joke about safety."

So in the end, it still depends on Shan Chunyuan.

Zhou Rui returned to the "preparation field" and Shan Chunyuan had already started testing the "two-cake reform" from scratch.

Although, this is something he personally participated in the transformation, and every part has been inspected dozens of times.

But I still force myself to treat it as a new rocket model that I have come into contact with for the first time. Even if it is the most basic project, I have to do it again meticulously.

Or do it dozens of times again.

Seeing Zhou Rui return, Shan Chunyuan said, "What did the director say?"

Zhou Rui said with a smile: "The director said he wants to get your 'quality inspection report'. You see, you still have the most power. We all have to wait for your approval."

A small joke, but it made Shan Chunyuan even more stressed.

He let out a breath and said, "Let me tell you first, I will not lower my standards just because you are my future boss, I am happy to work with you, I believe in your level, I recognize your character, and I admire your talent. If it's not suitable for launch, I won't be vague."

Zhou Rui smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't interfere with your independent judgment, but hurry up. After Chang'e-3 lands on the moon, I don't want to stay at the Xichang base for too long."

After such a long time, my poker skills have become rusty, and there are still poker friends waiting for me at home!
Shan Chunyuan nodded: "What about you during this period?"

Zhou Rui thought for a while, even though he could gain experience every day and live a fulfilling life, it was rare that the "preparatory field" was transformed so smoothly, with all the equipment and all the confidants around him.

Why not do something else?
For example, verify the ideas obtained during the previous "drop test".

----------

August 11th, early morning.

Chang'e-3 arrived at the predetermined position. Under the remote control of the command center, the thruster ignited for the second time and successfully entered the "near-lunar elliptical orbit."

The orbit's perilunar point will be only 15 kilometers high.

At this point, Chang'e-3 has entered the final stage of "moon landing".

Four days later, a "soft landing" will be officially carried out, landing in the "Rainbow Sea" area of ​​the moon.

After a brief period of excitement in the command center, they entered a state of standing and waiting again, but everyone knew that this was the last time.

In the past few days, Zhou Rui, as promised, did not interfere with Shan Chunyuan's "independent judgment" and allowed him to lead the entire rocket engineering team to test the "two-cake reform" in various ways and with various ideas.

Not even trying to push the envelope.

And he himself led his group of confidants to create something brand new.

Another four days passed.

August 15th, morning.

Although the Gregorian calendar and the lunar calendar are not the same thing, this was not considered when it was launched.

But by coincidence, Chang'e-3 is finally going to set on the moon.

To be honest, when Zhou Rui heard the news in the preparation field, he felt like he was in another world.

And once again I lamented that my strategy of "being idle is also idle" was right, otherwise this half month would have been so boring...
Zhou Rui temporarily put down the work at hand, took another "external expert" Che Gan, changed into decent clothes, and walked into the command center again.

The Xichang launch base has once again been broken from its previous tranquility.

Yang Ma’s interview team arrived again, even bigger than the last time.

Because the Chang'e-3 project is the final work of the "Second Phase of the Lunar Exploration Project"
It will be announced to the world via "delayed live broadcast".
