"Let's go there now." Ding Zhiyi and other researchers led Chen Shen out of the production room and walked to the room where the samples were stored.

"Now the first batch of samples are basically undergoing performance testing, so we only keep the original three meters of samples."

Listening to Ding Zhiyi's words, Chen Shen put on the dustproof clothing covering his whole body and walked into the storage room.

The temperature in the room was not high. Chen Shen glanced at the constant temperature of 18 degrees.

Nanowire tubes are not sensitive to temperature. After all, they are used on the engine. It is only the habit of the production workshop to maintain this temperature.

The researcher took out a small glass-covered plate and brought it in front of several people.

Chen Shen looked inside through the glass cover, but saw nothing...

But this is normal, Chen Shen just looked at Ding Zhiyi, and he handed over a flashlight.

Chen Shen turned on the flashlight and shone it on the center of the plate, where a circle was drawn.

Under the special light, I saw a coherent surrounding light faintly revealed in the circle, as if a luminous rope was coiled into a circle.

These wire tubes have been processed during processing, and they will glow when they encounter specific light.

It's just that this method can only determine its location, and professional equipment such as scanning electron microscopes must be used to observe its details.

Chen Shen circled the plate twice, and asked the researchers to put it on the electron microscope.

Soon, a detailed image of it appears on the monitor.

Under the scanning electron microscope, its cross-sectional structure is clearly visible.

It is only four nanometers in diameter, but at such a small scale, the inner wires and outer insulation are clearly visible, and if it is enlarged, it looks exactly the same as the wires used in ordinary daily life.

This is not the world's thinnest nanowire, the thinnest nanowire has already been produced, only three atoms wide.

But that thing is an experimental product, it cannot be put into use at all, and there is no application scenario.

But right now, the nano-wire is really going to be installed on the spacecraft, and the maturity and complexity of the process is far more than the previous achievement. I don’t know how many times, it’s just a self-synthesized nano-wire of 57 meters. , so that other countries can not see the taillights.

This is a comprehensive transcendence from material to process to post-processing.

After reading the entire sample overview, Chen Shen asked, "How long will it take for this batch of sample testing to be completed?"

"Probably another three to four days."

"Then that machine just now is producing another kind of nanowire tube that needs to be tested?"

"Yes, we are currently planning to produce one by one. If there is no problem after the test, we will mass-produce the nanowire tube machine, and then start mass production of the nanowire tube."

Ding Zhiyi said.

His meaning is very clear, that is, he is conservative.

Relying on the current nanowire machine, the required nanowire tubes are produced one by one and tested. If it is determined that there is no problem with the machine, it can be finalized, and then start to increase the production capacity of the machine, thereby increasing the productivity of the nanowire tube.

After all, only relying on the current machine to produce tens of meters at a time, if you want to produce the thousands of meters of wire pipes needed by the Black Antelope, you have to go back and forth dozens of times.

And the time wasted is enough to give birth once, so it is necessary to expand production capacity.

However, Chen Shen was still not satisfied.

"In the past few days, I have given me the full set of design materials for the nanowire tube machine just now. If I find no defects and there are no problems in this batch of samples, I will produce 20 more sets first. This thing is short. It cannot break through the capacity limit within a certain period of time.”

"Otherwise, after all the seven types of wire tubes are tested, the production line of nano-thrusters can be put into production."

Ding Zhiyi wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It would be too wasteful if something goes wrong, I wonder if the higher-ups will approve it..."

Chen Shen doesn't care about the project budget, and Wang Qian takes half of it, but this big move of adding dozens of machines must be reported for approval.

According to Ding Zhiyi's past experience, there is a high probability that this application will be rejected.

Not for any other reason, but because it is too wasteful.

As long as there is a small problem, a machine may be scrapped directly. It is normal to scrap only one prototype machine, but if twenty machines are scrapped...

You must know that although the design of such a machine is not difficult, the cost is really not low.

These 20 machines, if evaluated purely based on their market value, may cost close to tens of billions.

In case it is really useless...

This kind of prodigal behavior may only have been done by old Americans in the last century.

When developing the Saturn V engine F-1 used for landing on the moon, the engine had signs of explosion before launch, and the problem could not be determined.

So the engineers decided to put explosives in the burning F-1 engine to induce combustion instability by explosion, and observe the change law of the flame during the actual ignition process.

This experiment lasted for three years and was carried out more than two thousand times.

In this ordinary sentence, it may be the history of blood and tears of two thousand rocket engines...

That is to say, in order to develop that F-1, the opposite side frantically built F-1 engine samples in three years, and then carried out tests continuously. When one was discarded, another one was built, and the new engine was built. Immediately send it to the test bench for testing, and remake it if it is scrapped...

Repeatedly and repeatedly, a large amount of data has been mastered, and the F-1, the most powerful rocket engine in history, has been built.

During these three years of experimentation, every day can be said to be burning beautiful knives, showing the demeanor of a big landlord.

It's just that this kind of demeanor can't be learned in China.

The reason is very simple, because of a disease - poor disease.

Therefore, domestic scientific research always has a taste of careful calculation, wearing glasses and doing research with one hand.

It's just that this problem doesn't bother Chen Shen now.

He shook his head: "You just say in the report that it is my request, and then I should sign it, and there should be no problem."

Ding Zhiyi suddenly didn't know what to say.

He didn't know if Chen Shen was bragging, or if he really had the enviable privilege to shed tears...

If this is true, then his tears may be uncontrollable.

Not to mention him, even the other older researchers next to him were envious in their eyes at this moment.

Only some of the younger researchers don't yet understand what's going on.

At first glance, it looks like a rookie who has never applied for funding.

Chen Shen still didn't know what happened, and said in his own words, "If you finish all the experiments according to your plan, this project can be finished."

I didn't know that the glasses of the researchers next to me were already red...

Seeing Chen Shen speak more and more seriously, Ding Zhiyi had no choice but to believe it temporarily.

"Okay, then I'll make a report later."

"Now I'll let someone send the design information of the nanowire tube machine to your room."

"OK."

Chen Shen separated from Ding Zhiyi and the others, and followed the others to the temporary dormitory. After a while, he received the materials sent by Ding Zhiyi, and signed the application report he had drafted.

According to the above application in the report, as long as the performance test of the first batch of wire tubes passed three days later, and Chen Shen did not request modification of the wire tube machines, twenty nanometer wire tube machines must be produced quickly.

"Master Chen, will this matter really go as smoothly as you said?"

Seeing Chen Shen signing, Ding Zhiyi still couldn't help asking.

Chen Shen thought for a while, and replied: "There was no problem before, and there should be no problem this time. You can type up the report first."

"Then the chief teacher, do you think I can transfer the work unit to the dome base?"

Ding Zhiyi opened his mouth, but in the end he still didn't say what was in his heart.

People in their forties need face.

Ding Zhiyi quickly returned to his office with the report in his hand.

The first thing to do is type up the report.

He wanted the report passed.

Though being thrown that far away by a young man can cause him serious frustration, possibly even crying out on the spot.

But who doesn't want to have a better scientific research environment?

Who doesn't want to buy a lot, and just get two sets if there is any equipment missing?

If twenty line pipe machines are really built, no matter whether there is any problem with the final machine, the progress of the project can be greatly accelerated.

Ding Zhiyi didn't care about other affairs, and spent the rest of the time staring at his mailbox and phone.

If it is a rejection, there is a high probability that it will be notified by email, and it is unlikely to make a phone call to scold him as an applicant.

If it is passed, it should be a phone call, so that it meets the level of this report.

In the irritability and anticipation, an afternoon passed...

The room seemed to be still, no matter whether it was the news he expected or not, there was no news.

"Huh, how could it be so fast? A report of this level will take at least a week to deliberate." Ding Zhiyi realized that he was in a daze, calmed down, and planned to deal with all the work in hand first.

However, the next second, the phone on the desk rang.

The ringing sounded like a sledgehammer hitting his heart, and he quickly picked up the phone.

A man's voice came from inside.

"Director Ding?"

"That's right, it's me, please tell me." Ding Zhiyi quickly spoke to confirm his identity.

"The report you submitted at noon..."

Before he finished speaking on the phone, Ding Zhiyi had already guessed the rest, or he already knew the ending the moment the phone rang.

Sure enough, the following is exactly what he thought: "...After the review, the current opinion is agreed to pass. If the performance test is correct and there are no new amendments, it will come into effect. You can communicate with the specific production arrangements through the previous channels. , the factory will fully cooperate with your work, over."

"clear."

Ding Zhiyi hung up the phone, feeling a little lost: "Isn't this too fast?"

He checked the time, only about six hours had passed.

So right after his report was submitted, a meeting was held to review it?

And just now, I specifically emphasized that I will fully cooperate with the production...

"This level is too high!"

It's true that people are more angry than people. He has lived on dogs for more than forty years.

No, he is not the only one like this...

Ding Zhiyi quickly comforted himself in his heart.

On the other side, Chen Shen roughly finished flipping through the design documents of the line pipe machine that had just been sent.

He didn't know much about this aspect, but relying on his intuition and flexible mind to check for a small mistake is not a problem. If there is a big loophole in the design, he can definitely find it.

It's just that although the appearance of the nanowire tube machine looks like a stitching monster, its design is definitely very superb, and it perfectly accommodates various structural components inside without any conflicts.

Although it has a series of shortcomings such as high energy consumption and insufficient space utilization, it is enough for normal use.

Just like the previous projects, Chen Shen never cared about these details. After all, this is just a first-generation machine, and the design is still in such a hurry. It is already perfect to achieve this level.

Three days passed in a flash. During this time, Chen Shen read the design documents several times, but still did not find any loopholes. As long as the performance of the wire tube meets the standard, then this nanowire tube machine can basically be regarded as a pass.

According to the sample situation seen three days ago, the probability of error is not high, and the test items in these three days show that the data is normal and in line with expectations.

In short, during this day, Chen Shen was waiting for the result of the last test.

Just after noon, Ding Zhiyi brought news.

As soon as he entered the door, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The experiment was successful!"

"The first nanowire we produced perfectly meets our requirements for use!"

Ding Zhiyi's voice was very excited, and a big smile spread across his face.

Chen Shen also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, and immediately said: "Immediately start the production expansion plan, and try to deploy the machine before the design of the nano-thrust production line is completed."

"no problem!"

Since the first nanowire tube machine, Ding Zhiyi has already known how fast this kind of machine can be produced, so he is full of confidence in this requirement.

After finishing this matter, Chen Shen also set off to return to the base.

He had been immersed in research before, and he didn't pay attention to the time. He called Xie Yiyi after leaving the factory and found out that it was almost Chinese New Year.

It's just that this year is destined to not be able to go home for the New Year.

The Tibetan antelope project is still going on normally, and it is in a critical research stage. He can't walk away at this time no matter how responsible he is.

"I'm supposed to celebrate the New Year at the base this year, and you can come over then." Chen Shen scratched his hair and came up with a compromise idea.

The Tibetan Antelope project only held a meeting at the base for a short time, and it has not taken root in the base. Moreover, there are no sensitive projects in the base now, and only the Jingwei helicopter and mecha are really classified.

Under such circumstances, there is no problem in partially opening up to the outside world.

"And your movie is about to premiere? We can watch it together then."

"It premiered on New Year's Eve, and it wasn't my movie..."
