The program continues as usual, and it is inevitable that people will complain about the same old program, but more people are hotly discussing this year's special arrangements. What is the significance of it?
Could it be that they're just sending their newly commissioned J-20 fighter jets to greet them and show off their arrival? Does it fit in with this year's Spring Festival Gala theme of "Leap of the Tiger and Soar of the Dragon"? The Spring Festival Gala hasn't been this grand, has it?
Our China has always been a great country with a calm and dignified demeanor, not this kind of ostentatious style. Is there some deeper meaning that they have not thought of?
The audience began to call their friends and relatives, gathered in front of the TV, and looked forward to Weilong's reappearance.
There is no need to exchange drinks, just eat, then it will be faster.
There was a wide variety of dishes tonight. Wu Tong hadn't had much formal dining during the day, so he ate quite a bit. This made Wu Jingzhong and Jin Yu, the couple who had come from afar, and Hua Yanxing, who had made all the careful arrangements, both happy and distressed.
As the meal was coming to an end, Wu Tong's phone rang.
She looked at the caller and found that it was the core person that she and President Hua had just mentioned vaguely. As the saying goes, the devil is here!
"Happy New Year, Mr. Wu!" Lu Xiao congratulated with a smile. In front of him was a real-time tracking screen, and the real-time status of several J-20 aircraft in the fleet was displayed in front of him.
"Teacher Lu, Happy New Year!" Wu Tong smiled with her eyes curved. "I dare not call me General in front of you, or do you need me to call you Chief Designer Lu?" It was very stressful for the teacher to call her General.
"No, no, I'm outside right now." Lu Xiao laughed and glanced at the real-time route display of Weilong on the screen. He asked with a smile: "Can you see the sky from where we are now?"
"Yes!" Wu Tong turned around and glanced, then simply nodded in response. There was a large glass window on the back wall of the box, covered by curtains. If you opened it, you could definitely see the sky above.
"Then look out the window and up!"
Look at what, it wouldn't be?
Wu Tong, not understanding why but vaguely expectant, pulled open the curtains as he was told, pushed open the window and looked up. Wu Jingzhong and the others followed Wu Tong's actions and stood up to look outside. They heard the sonic boom roaring towards them. The flight formation they had just seen on TV, with lights flashing in greeting, flew over the base at a safe distance. The blue of its tail flames was the brightest starlight in the sky.
"It's the J-20, the J-20!" Wu Jingzhong and the base staff in the cafeteria next door heard the sonic boom and quickly ran out to see the J-20 flash by. They couldn't help but dance with joy. Some people wearing brightly colored clothes even waved their coats and cheered wildly.
"China is mighty, the mighty dragon soars!"
"Thank you, and thank you to all the staff who are working hard to make Weilong stronger and stay at their posts!" Lu Xiao said seriously.
The reason why the Weilong's first route was to go west was that the distance was enough to demonstrate the speed and power of the Weilong. In addition, they wanted to thank all the staff who were working on the front line to make the Weilong a stronger sword. The most important thing was Wu Tong who took the lead in research and development and assisted the birth of the Weilong's transcendence.
"Thank you, Teacher Lu. We are very happy and the staff on site are very excited! Once again, I wish you a happy new year!" Wu Tong stuck his phone out of the window, allowing Lu Xiao to feel the enthusiastic cheers at the scene.
After retrieving his phone, Wu Tong solemnly responded to this special tribute, "Teacher Lu and all the leaders who have high expectations of us, please rest assured that we will do our best to help Weilong become stronger and more profitable!"
Wu Tong silently calculated in her mind, the warhead, fuel, engine... now the basics are basically complete. In March, she will definitely send a brand new PL-15 to the Weilong, so that the Weilong will be fully armed and truly dominate the blue sky!
Even at low speed, the dragon flew by at a remarkable speed, streaking across the sky like a meteor, its wings spread wide, heading for the distant western border. Only when the dragon was no longer visible did Wu Tong, the others, and the excited staff outside turn back with regret.
After hanging up Lu Xiao's phone, Wu Tong closed the window and returned to the round table with his parents, Mr. Hua, and poured each of them a cup of hot drink to ward off the cold. Having just opened the window to see the miracle, he was certainly excited and refreshed, and he had also taken in a lot of cold air.
"Tongtong, President Hua, it's only been half an hour, and the Weilong has already flown from Shangjing to Xizhou?" After a moment of shock, Wu Jingye mentally calculated the distance. From Shangjing to Xizhou, considering the border, the flight distance is about 2,000 kilometers. 2,000 kilometers in half an hour—what kind of speed is that? 4,000 kilometers in an hour?
"The straight-line distance should be less than two thousand kilometers!" This is not the real data of Weilong. It should be because of the order that it slowed down the speed and did not fly at the maximum speed.
The Weilong's true speed is indeed at the 4,000 km/h mark. Its maiden flight of 3.22 Mach was achieved without pushing the limits, but subsequent flight tests have steadily pushed the Weilong past 4,000 km/h.
"This is the world's fastest fighter jet!" Few men are not passionate. Wu Jingzhong is a military fan and has studied the world's publicly available armaments data. He has a fighter jet speed ranking in his mind. It was a pity that the country started a little late, and the performance and speed of fighter jets still could not catch up with the international top level.
But he didn't expect that when he came to spend the New Year with his daughter, in addition to the joy of seeing his daughter, he would also witness such an epoch-making shock!
"Almost. The speed of Weilong has caught up with the world's top-notch level!" This is the data that the country has revealed to the outside world. Wu Tong did not avoid the topic and nodded in confirmation with his father.
"Dad, haven't you always wanted our country's fighter jets to be able to fly at super speeds in one leap? Now the Weilong has done it!"
When she received the information about Weilong, she had anticipated that she would do something practical to fulfill her father's wish!
"We did it! Weilong did it! China has risen!" Wu Jingzhong's excitement was still lingering, and he exclaimed in admiration, "Weilong is so amazing! So great!"
It took a long while for Wu Jingzhong and the others outside who had also reacted and calculated the approximate speed of the Weilong to slowly calm down from their shock and joy. Thinking about Tongtong's actions after receiving the call, Wu Jingzhong and Jin Yu had some guesses in their minds: was Tongtong involved in a confidential project like the Weilong?
If this is the case, the importance of the project that Tongtong is involved in will have to be increased. In the future, they should be more careful in what they do and say, and not cause trouble for Tongtong.
Until these things were made public and Tongtong was safe, they would have to keep them to themselves, unable to reveal them even in their dreams. Nothing was more important than Tongtong's safety.
They are proud and honored for Tongtong to have the ability to participate in such a project. They can no longer see the upper limit for Tongtong's future, but what is certain is that it is brighter than their best expectations.
At the beginning, they only hoped for Tongtong's future, that she would have a stable job, be healthy and not get hurt, just like them!
