Infrastructure: Start to Repair The Elevator in Mount Everest

Chapter 268

Without further ado, everyone in the command center nodded in unison.

“Preparation is complete, real-time monitoring of cable fall data, 100 kilometers from the predetermined position is set!”

“At present, the altitude is dropping rapidly, and there is still 247 kilometers away from the 100 kilometers target. It is expected to reach the target position within 3 minutes!”

“Time has a final countdown.”

“The countdown is ready to begin!”

At this moment, as the staff roared, a brand-new countdown time immediately reappeared on the screen that originally recorded the time of the fall.

Countdown to the rope entering the 100 km position.

Seeing the time font turned red, Li Qi’s eyes flashed, his eyes were already focused on the rapidly falling number.

“2 minutes!”

“1 minute!”

At this time, I heard that there is only one minute to enter 100 kilometers.

The old professor, holding the manuscript tightly in his hand, has already rushed to the forefront.

Under tension, the body of this mathematics professor was constantly trembling slightly, and his open mouth kept chattering anxiously:

“Stay steady, steady.”

“We must be steady, our data, there must be no problem.”

“It must be steady!”

“100 kilometers, more or less will not work, the 100 kilometers must be precise and accurate!”

“…”

At this moment, beside the professor, Director Li was staring at the screen with full eyes, and his hands were nervously holding the phone connected to the Jiuquan Command Center.

Director Li at this moment almost didn’t dare to relax at all, paying attention to any command that the mathematician might have.

“One minute countdown!”

“40.”

“39.”

“35.”

“Prepare–!”

As time entered the last 30 seconds, the mathematician’s eyeballs began to congest, immediately raised his head to look at Director Li, and shouted anxiously.

The concentrating Director Li was taken aback because of this, and quickly yelled at the phone:

“Okay, okay, I understand.”

“Jiuquan Command Center, get ready, get ready!”

“Ready to open the first stage parachute!”

“Yes–!”

Listening to the order, on the other side of the Jiuquan Command Center, the commander who picked up the phone also shouted anxiously:

“Quick, the operator is in place.”

“Open the parachute safety device and prepare to open the parachutes in batches to slow down.”

“receive.”

After a brief response, the operator who was already waiting in his seat immediately opened the console in front of him with his hands and feet quickly.

With “patter, patter…” a crisp sound.

The safety devices that remotely controlled the parachutes were immediately opened by the operators.

In front of the operator, the original master switch is already connected to a row of temporarily installed line switches.

In order to be in place at one time, the 10 parachutes of the cable were all connected in parallel to a master switch.

Now, in order to meet the requirements of mathematicians to open umbrellas in batches, the staff at Jiuquan Base rushed to work temporarily, and they just came up with such an unsightly but extremely practical new switch.

Look at the 10 numbers marked on the switch according to the line.

After the operator turned on the switches of all 10 parachutes, he immediately shouted eagerly:

“report–!”

“Operation station No. 1 is ready, and the cable parachutes are all opened.”

“The communication is normal.”

“The parachute is normal.”

“You can start to slow down at any time!”

“…”

good.

Hearing what the operator said is all normal. The person in charge of the command center was sweating and quickly reported the news:

“Director Li, the command center is ready to open the parachute at any time.”

“…”

Director Li immediately looked at the mathematician after he covered the microphone.

But at this moment, he just nodded heavily in the gaze of the other party’s inquiry.

Now, no one made a single movement.

Because the operator of the Tarim Command Center is currently counting down the last 15 seconds.

Everyone, for fear of missing this second, quietly and nervously waited for the order from the mathematician.

“15.”

“14.”

“10.”

“…”

The last 10 seconds.

Although the operator was by the mathematician’s side, at this moment, the mathematician couldn’t help but raised his right hand aloft.

Trembling.

At this moment, the mathematician is very clear about how heavy the responsibility he bears.

Project that attracts worldwide attention.

Whether China can be an important moment for overtaking in a curve in the world’s scientific research.

This time, this data, and this plan are all led by myself.

The current old professor of mathematics is under such tremendous pressure. Raised his right hand and spoke deeply:

“Remember, it must be opened in sections.”

“The first batch of cable parachutes opened six, no more, no less. It’s important that there must be no mistakes…”

Just at the uneasy instructions of the old professor, the operator’s countdown has entered the last 5 seconds.

“5.”

“4.”

The last 3 seconds.

At this moment, the eyes of the old mathematics professor felt the sweat slowly running across his eyelids. It was very itchy and affected his vision.

But he still opened his eyes wide, and didn’t dare to make any extra moves.

“3.”

Prepare, prepare.

At this moment, the old professor’s heart had already begun to beat violently.

“2.”

Coming soon, this is the key moment to determine whether the cable can be successfully slowed down!

100 kilometers.

Now we are about to enter the final height of 100 kilometers.

“1.”

With the operator’s last word exit.

Immediately, the old professor’s right hand slashed directly, facing the timer that was completely cleared on the screen, it was like seeing the mushroom cloud of the year, and he was excited to drink:

“Open the parachute!”

There was a hum.

As the old professor’s arm was chopped down like a big knife, and before the old professor’s voice fell, Director Li, who was also waiting tremblingly, immediately yelled at the other end of the phone:

“Open! ”

“Quickly, open the parachute.”

“Open it now.”

After receiving the order, the series of responsible persons are like firecrackers being lit, and everyone is equally anxious.

“Open the umbrella.”

“The six parachutes in the first stage will all be opened soon.”

“quick.”

In the end, all the commands were gathered into the headset of Operator 1.

At this moment, the front-line operator’s nervous and shaking fingers finally pressed the rows of buttons without thinking.

With the button from off to on.

Seeing the green indicator light on the opening interface illuminate one after another, the monitor from the Jiuquan Center on the other side immediately reported the situation:

“Parachute No. 1, successfully opened.”

“Parachute No. 2, successfully opened.”

“Parachute No. 3, successfully opened.”

“…”

“The wind resistance in the atmosphere has increased and everything is normal.”

“The acceleration of the cable has dropped, and the current falling speed has begun to drop continuously.”

“Slow down successfully!”

Following the announcement, at this moment, many commanders in the Jiuquan Center felt as if they had been taken away, and they all felt slumped in place.

And when the commander holding the phone, tremblingly reported to Director Li.

After the news of successful deceleration was returned.

Everyone in the entire Tarim was excited.

Did not fail.

The first stage of the cable slowed down and succeeded.
