Technology Bigshot

This time, the items on the launch vehicle are not ordinary items. The "Tianqing-1" carried on the rocket is worth an astronomical figure of nearly 150 billion yuan, and there is no room for the slightest mistake. drift. The deputy director Kai also made a point for the director who led the launch mission. He knew very well how much pressure it would take, and what was even more terrible was not just once, but three times.

"...9...8...7..."

The sound of reading the countdown sounded in the observation room. Ren Hong, who was standing by, said that it was impossible not to be nervous, not to mention that in case of an accident, 150 billion would be lost like this, and the follow-up would disrupt the "virtual world" Compared with the direct loss of more than 20 billion U.S. dollars in the entire plan of the project, the follow-up impact is more fatal, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Matrix Technology.

It was because it was so important that he came to the launch center in person.

Ren Hong remained motionless, with one hand wrapped around his chest and the other covering his mouth, staring at the giant rocket under the dark night without saying a word.

"... 2... 1... Ignite!"

Under the moonlit night, the launch site suddenly burst into flames, illuminating the surrounding environment. The lake near the launch site was level like a mirror. On the ground, the calm lake surface was bursting with waves at this moment.

The onlookers in the peripheral area pointed to the launch site one by one, and the launch was carried out at night. This kind of spectacle is even rarer and more shocking. People in the peripheral area can feel the subsequent earthquake tremors.

Among the people who watched the real-time launch, there were many elderly people. The people who saw this phenomenon for the first time were all surprised, and some even shouted that "Sky Monkey" flew into the sky. If Ren Hong knew, he would probably be dumbfounded. This "Sky-Scrolling Monkey" is worth more than 150 billion yuan, which is equivalent to the total production value of the entire Wanning City in one year except for Matrix Technology! !

The carrier rocket shuttles through the atmosphere with sky-high cargo at high speed. During this period, the relevant departments of the Republic’s Rocket Army are also dispatched to monitor the trajectory of the carrier rocket throughout the entire process. At the same time, they pay attention to all external activities and are always ready to respond to possible "unexpected" signals interference.

After 378 seconds, the launch vehicle broke through the earth's upper atmosphere. Looking at it with the naked eye, it turned into a bright star in the moonlit night sky. The bright light was flickering with high frequency, indicating that this is an artificial celestial body. When it enters the expected low-earth orbit of the earth Finally, eager cheers and applause came from the entire command center, and the sound was also transmitted to the observation room through the sound sensor equipment. Deputy Director Kai and Ren Hong temporarily put their hearts down.

"My palms are full of sweat." Deputy Director Kai said, looking at Ren Hong with a smile.

"It's been a tough six minutes.

"Ren Hong also said with a smile, his words relaxed a lot.

Deputy director Kai was worried about the success of the launch, and Ren Hong was worried about whether the "virtual world" could be released as scheduled. But they all unanimously sweated for "Tianqing No. 1".

"Yeah, it's really tormented, the 150 billion fireworks didn't appear after all, luckily!" Kai Deputy Director joked. He added: "But the initial launch was successful, and the next step is to send him to geosynchronous orbit, which is far from over!"

At this moment, "Tianqing-1" has entered the earth-orbit platform in outer space, readjusted its course after orbiting the earth once, and will fly from a low-earth orbit of 340 kilometers to a geosynchronous orbit at a distance of 36,000 kilometers.

At the same time, at the Matrix Technology Headquarters in Nanwang District, the topmost floor of the "L" shaped building was brightly lit at the moment, and dozens of staff were sticking to their posts, staring intently at the display in front of them. Focusing on the screen, the eyeballs are staring at the data on it.

Zhang Han was on the list, he was pacing back and forth, apparently anxiously waiting for something.

At this moment, an excited voice resounded throughout the audience, and an employee staring at the screen shouted excitedly: "Success! Success!" 'Tianqing-1' has entered the orbital platform, and is currently adjusting and formulating a new plan. It is expected to deviate from the established channel in 156 minutes and enter the scheduled synchronous orbit in 278 minutes."

The sound of excitement made the audience enter a state of excitement, and there was a burst of applause, and many young employees shouted in celebration. Zhang Han, who was always tense, finally stopped his seemingly urgent steps and faced the audience. The employee said: "Everyone cheer up, Wenchang command center will hand over 'Tianqing No. 1' to us in 315.7 minutes, prepare for the handover and make sure nothing goes wrong."

These few hours are undoubtedly like days and years. Everyone is staring at the slow beating of the hands of the clock. Watching the slow beating of the hands is simply tormenting, wishing to manually adjust it to the desired time point.

Meanwhile, hundreds of staff members in the Wenchang Command Center were all engrossed in staring at the data on their monitors. At this moment, "Tianqing No. 1" had left the orbital platform and accelerated to fly to the geosynchronous orbit again.

In the observation room, Ding Yang looked at Ren Hong who was dozing off, hesitated for a moment, came to his side and whispered: "Boss, it's already 3 o'clock in the morning, and I have to meet people from the National Space Administration tomorrow. I think it's better to go back to the headquarters first." Bar."

Ren Hong's complexion is indeed tired, he wakes up at less than 6 o'clock every morning, and it is almost early in the morning every day on weekdays to end the day's walk together. During weekdays, he only sleeps for more than five hours a day. It can be seen that the success and speed of the rise of Matrix Technology is by no means accidental.

"But..." Ding Yang hesitated to speak.

Ren Hong stretched his body, stood up, and said, "I've been preparing for four or five years. It's a critical moment, and it won't be less than a few tens of minutes. I'll go back as soon as the result comes out."

Ding Yang had no choice but to give up when he heard it. As the time approached, the "Tianqing-1" far away in outer space was getting closer and closer to the established orbital position. In the last ten minutes, the people in the entire command center were worried again. Listening to the staff's reports without saying a word, his palms were clenched into fists, and there was a little untraceable sweat on his forehead, which showed how much pressure he was facing at the moment.

After all, that's 150 billion!

"'Tianqing-1' has entered the established orbit!"

"The signal reception is stable! The signal remote sensing is normal!"

"Track debugging completed!"

"'Tianqing-1' is officially running simultaneously!"

"We made it!"

"Successful!"

Everyone in the audience stood up almost at the same time, and many excited staff members hugged each other. The sky-high price of 150 billion made every staff member who participated in this launch mission tense, for fear of their own carelessness or other accidents. No one present could afford this price.

When the director heard the word "success", he let out a long and deep breath, finally relaxed his clenched fist, and nodded to himself.

At this moment, almost everyone let go of their hanging hearts.

"Prepare for handover with Matrix Technology!" The director gave the order again.

"Let's go! Go back to the headquarters!" Ren Hong didn't say much after learning the final result.

As for the handover of "Tianqing No. 1", Zhang Han was there, and he was very relieved. Since the attack of that incident, the reborn Zhang Han has also lost his youthful impetuosity and cultivated his calm personality.

"Tianqing No. 1" is just the beginning. In the next period of time, "Tianqing No. 2" and "Tianqing No. 3" will be sent to outer space one after another. But as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. The success of "Tianqing No. 1" gave everyone great confidence. The launch of "Tianqing No. 2" and "Tianqing No. 3" not only gained experience, but also reduced the pressure a lot.

When the layout of the "Tianqing system" is completed, the three major "Tianqing systems" in geosynchronous orbit will initially form a global "virtual network" to connect with the matrix technology terminal data center.

Before the end of this year, in addition to the "Tianqing system" being sent into space, nearly 80 relay satellites also equipped with photonic computers have been launched into space. China's four major satellite launch bases will Launched 45 satellites for Matrix Technology into high-altitude orbit and completed the handover. SpaceX, a space exploration technology company in the United States, will also send satellites provided by SS/L of Laura Space Systems to low-earth orbit in outer space one month later. .

In this period of time in the future, Matrix Technology, which is constantly exerting force, will "crazy screen" in the global aerospace field, and almost all space launch activities are related to Matrix Technology.

When all the satellites are sent into space, the hard configuration of the "virtual network" will officially come to an end.

At present, more than 2.4 million sets of sensing helmets have come off the production line, and all of them have been sealed. Several production lines are producing the equipment almost 24 hours a day, and when the release date arrives, the production capacity will reach the expected more than 35 million sets.

Everything is ready, everything is ready, the only thing left is the east wind, when the "Virtual World" is released, it will definitely shock the world.

(Ps: From the new book issue to the present, this big hole is finally going to be filled. Some people say that it is water, but I disagree. It can be said that if "Technology Giants" is water, then 90% of the books at the starting point can fit a Pacific Ocean. The reason why the virtual world is up to now is because it needs to be launched at the right time in the setting, otherwise it would be like suddenly the military announced that a super aircraft carrier with a displacement of 100,000 tons can enter space orbit, and humans have already been able to create There is a 100,000-ton Helicarrier, but when I heard the news, I don’t think anyone can accept it. With the current level of human’s industrial base and productivity, objectively speaking, it is absolutely impossible even with the power of the country. It has been done, except for the industrial foundation and productivity, the current level of technology is not enough to send such a huge object into the sky.

The same is true for the "virtual world" in the article, which requires technical reserves and technological levels. In fact, people who look carefully will find that many places are overdone through the concept of time, which has saved a lot of unnecessary content. Veteran readers can tell that other similar articles have been written to this extent at least 2 million words, and "Technology Giants" is less than 1 million words. According to Stone's settings, about 2 million words should be finished and the second part of the sequel will start. up.

This is a very contradictory issue. On the one hand, readers will dislike the small number of words, and on the other hand, they will dislike water. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the readers, but the author has not handled the balance well, such as small stones, and the "virtual world" plot The announcement is too early, and many readers are impatient looking forward to this episode, so they feel that water, this is a pot of stones (so, I dare not mention dinosaur park or something in the article, let’s bury this pit first, sweat~~ ~).

It is a good thing to discover the shortcomings, and avoid making mistakes in the future. After all, this story is still long, and the first part is only half written. If you make mistakes first, you can write better later.

Finally, thank you for your kindness!! (\\~o~/)(To be continued.)
