I ask you to build tractors, but you build rockets?

Chapter 53 The beginning of the new year

“The United Nations Animal Protection Organization and Environmental Protection Organization condemned Xinyuan Aerospace Power Company’s extremely irresponsible and unnecessary space launch, believing that the latter went against the original concept of space and caused major pollution to Qiongzhou Island and surrounding waters...

The local government of Qiongzhou said: The failure of the rocket launch is a common loss for mankind. The international community should not add insult to injury, and the aluminum alloy rocket shell fragments will be burned by the flames and will not fall into the ocean and cause pollution..."

The "Wuma" launch mission can be said to be the most "irrelevant" launch in the history of the aerospace industry. More than 20 million yuan was spent just to set off big fireworks for the people across the country.

Animal rights organizations, which have long been dissatisfied with the Chinese New Year fireworks, immediately condemned it and said they would send investigators into the country. If pollution is really caused, they will take practical actions to protest.

For international animal protection organizations, anti-high technology is an old tradition. After all, tens of millions of Americans firmly believe that Bill Gates wants to control the world.

Xinyuan’s official response: Just go ahead and come over. If you can get a pass to go to the island, I will lose.

A national launch site and a Xinyuan Space Launch Site have stimulated how many local supporting enterprises in Qiongzhou and how much economic benefits have they brought?

The leaders have said that they want to create a new province with aerospace characteristics, right?

What’s interesting is that Lao Ma’s domestic official WeChat account, which is basically a reposting machine, actually retweeted the “Wuma” mission video and liked it...

International news doesn't stop there:

King Aber announced the construction of a "future city" in Mukala, with the theme of the universe, and called for creative ideas to build a 1:1 spaceship building. The new city will be able to accommodate 200,000 people for viewing and experiencing the future. It is expected that the investment will be 20 billion US dollars, which is twice as much as the space program (Lin Ju \u0026amp;amp; the space agency is furious);

The specaX Falcon 9 exploded for the first time in the new year. Lao Ma was criticized by Bluebird users for being unpragmatic and inefficient at the top level, resulting in the failure of recycling technology.

Lao Ma responded by announcing the next seven Falcon 9 launch plans and retelling the PPT on future landings on Mars;

A NACA spokesperson said that XAP has become the fourth largest world space agency after NACA, CASA, and RKA. The Aramco space industry has seriously fallen behind. Congress should increase the budget of the "Artemis" moon landing program to 100 billion U.S. dollars in order to survive the severe situation. Achieve goals on time in a competitive environment;

Aramco passed a motion to initiate comprehensive sanctions against Xinyuan Aerospace Power and its partners. On the same day, Aberdeen stated that it would withdraw its astronauts from the Lucia Astronaut Training Center;

Another group of soldiers arrived at the Imperial Cemetery on a C17 transport plane;

The Lucia Space Agency stated that the life of the International Space Station is about to expire, and continuing to serve beyond the expiration date may pose safety risks, and it exhibited a new International Space Station plan (mainly Lucia).

Focus turns to the country:

The China Aerospace Exchange Conference will be held in Beijing in March. Aerospace Science and Technology and Aerospace Science and Industry Group will participate in the conference. Also invited are a number of private aerospace companies: Xinyuan Aerospace Power and two companies registered in Hui Province with only their first names. aerospace company;

A new round of preferential policies and subsidies for new energy vehicles have been announced. The following declared models will receive support, among which there is a small brand called Xinan;

Hua Nuclear Power Group, Hua Guangdong Nuclear Power Group, and China Power Investment Group all rejected Xinyuan's request to purchase radioactive raw materials.

The last one was not made public and was approached by Xinyuan himself.

The nuclear thermal rocket engine requires radioactive materials mainly composed of uranium carbide. After mixing, liquid hydrogen and other working fluids flowing through the channel are added to heat and pressurize it into high-energy gas ejection. This is the basic principle of the nuclear thermal rocket engine.

These nuclear raw materials also need to be processed into specific shapes. Apart from the digital military research institute, the only ones in China that can produce this stuff and have the processing capabilities are the three giants of civilian nuclear power, Hua Nuclear Power, Hua Guangdong Nuclear Power, and Huaguo Power Investment.

All three parties received Xinyuan's purchase intention and then decisively rejected it.

The reason... think about it yourself.

Obviously, without the top-level nod, these three companies are seeking their own demise if they dare to do this business, and industries related to these sensitive things require complicated approval procedures.

Of course, Lin Ju had expected it, but he didn't expect his attitude to be so determined.

So he decided to prepare well for the aerospace exchange meeting in March. Through Tang Weitian, he had already found out that this meeting was very important, and the first three rows were also present.

If you can perform well, you might still have a chance.

Before leaving for Beijing, Lin Ju saw the first XW-9 turbofan engine based on the WCR-09 disassembled in the second office workshop directly under the company's R\u0026D department.

As a medium-bypass turbofan engine with a thrust of nearly 14 tons, the XW-9 weighs only 1,220 kilograms.

Compared with the AL31F engine used in Lucia's main fighter Su27 and Huaguo's J10 and J11, it has a maximum thrust of 13.5 tons and a weight of 1530 kilograms.

The WCR-09 combined power engine purchased from the system mall is a combination of a scramjet engine and a turbofan engine.

In order to reduce the size and weight, WCR-09 had to make some air intake compromises, resulting in an overall thrust of only about 9 tons, but it is indeed very small, and it is even possible to install two more without making any changes to H1. Cause significant performance impact.

After the turbofan part is removed separately and put on the casing, the performance of the XW-9 is fully unleashed.

As for the non-afterburner version of the XW-10, which increases the bypass ratio of the turbofan part and is designed for transport aircraft, prototype production has not yet started due to too many changes, and it is necessary to continue to wait for the design to be perfected.

However, the development of turbofan engines requires a high-altitude test bed, which is also included in the B-level base, but it cannot be used until the base is completed in June. The production of the two types of engines will definitely be delayed until the end of 2015.

But Lin Ju is quite confident in the two types of engines. Not to mention the current international advanced level, these indicators will still be the first echelon in the world in 10 years, especially the lower fuel consumption rate and high thrust of the XW-10. The maximum index of the domestic engine WS20 that will be used in the Y20 in a few years will be at this level.

In addition, Xin'an Automobile, a joint venture with Southern Motor, is also under development. There is now a 2015 Southern Eado running around the factory. Engineers will work with Southern Motor's R\u0026D personnel to adapt the new BMS system.

In terms of intelligent driving, the institute has full confidence in the mature ternary system, but it also needs to wait for the completion of the B-level base before conducting experiments.

Lin Ju couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the increasingly cheap and plastic-looking family models. The excellent models from a few years later came to mind. The body design at that time looked much smoother than it does now. Let alone joint venture cars, China's High-end imported cars may not be comparable.

After writing down the change in appearance in his memo, Lin Ju got on the passenger plane and flew directly to the capital.
