"We must do it, and do everything to perfection, and live up to the trust of the country and the organization!" Wu Jingzhong gently patted his daughter's shoulder and gave formal instructions.
When they don't have much ability, they should be good citizens who obey the law, obey the state's management, and be protected by the state. However, if children are outstanding and have the ability that the country needs, they should make contributions to the country while protecting themselves.
Please forgive his selfishness as a father, for not being able to make Tongtong risk his life and go through fire and water for others.
Early in the morning on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, in front of the 624 Institute.
"Take good care of yourself!" This was the couple's most important advice to Wu Tong. They insisted on not letting Wu Tong go. The institute's security was more secure, so they didn't want to risk their lives just to send them off.
Nothing is more important than Tongtong’s safety.
In addition, after sending her to the airport and traveling back and forth, we will eventually have to part ways, so I’d better not let Tongtong go through so much, as it will only tire the child out.
Fan Junfeng assigned his guards and Wang Jie, who was assigned from Wu Tong's side, to safely get the Wu couple to the plane. Hua Yanxing had someone prepare a number of local specialties and packed them up for takeaway.
Unable to refuse, Jin Yu and Wu Jingzhong could only keep thanking him.
"Thank you for your trouble and expense!"
"You're welcome, you're welcome. It's free. I asked you to come all the way here to bring some special things to share with other family members. Thank you for your trust and thank you for raising Wu Tong to be so outstanding!" With a child like Wu Tong, the couple will have more blessings in the future.
Wu Tong's emphasis on his family has already been considered above. The safety and protection of Wu Tong's family is also within the scope of this connection.
"Tongtong, we're leaving. Mom and Dad will be waiting for you at home when you're done!" After a final, reluctant hug, Wu Jingzhong and Jin Yu, holding each other, hardened their hearts and got into the car, waving goodbye through the window. If they didn't leave now, they really wouldn't be able to move.
The people were in place, the car started, and began to move forward. Wu Tong couldn't help but catch up and took two steps before she stopped. The responsibility on her shoulders was not yet fulfilled, and she had no right to be willful.
"Wu Tong!" Hua Yanxing patted Wu Tong's shoulder, offering gentle comfort. She was also a mother, having left her young child behind to work on the project. The child's heartbreaking cries still lingered in her ears.
But there is no other way. Someone has to do national scientific research, and someone has to make sacrifices. Most researchers are heartbroken that they cannot have both family and country. The country is already doing its best to accommodate them.
Wu Tong was still six months away from adulthood, still a child. She had the right to cry! This child had already done very well, beyond anyone's imagination. She could actually be more willful and make more demands!
"It's okay, President Hua, go back. I want to complete PL-15 as soon as possible!" The car disappeared from sight. Wu Tong raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Being sentimental is the most useless thing. She prefers to take action, finish the project as soon as possible, and go home as soon as possible so that she can spend more time with her parents.
In the car driving away, Jin Yu could no longer restrain herself and covered her mouth with tears in her eyes. Just now, they saw Tongtong's unconscious pursuit of the car from the car window. If she hadn't covered her mouth, they would have almost shouted to stop the car and got out.
When you are not together, you can’t stop missing me. When you see your children, when they leave, you feel another kind of reluctance and heartache.
However, they still did not regret coming here. They spent the New Year with Tongtong's family of three and saw with their own eyes that Tongtong was doing well. They felt more at ease after returning home.
As soon as he returned to the office, the comrades responsible for picking up and transferring the data were already in place. Wu Tong put the prepared coating and cooling system data disk and the N18 separate data disk into the confidential box they brought.
They will escort the information away and transfer it to where it is needed.
The leader of the transfer gave Wu Tong a deep military salute. "Thank you, Commander. The leadership asked me to pay my respects to you personally. Thank you for bringing new possibilities to the country and making our guns more powerful and our combat power stronger!"
Before setting off, they were repeatedly reminded that the importance of this small data disk was worth more than a thousand gold coins, and they would defend the security of this data to the death.
"Thank you, leader!" Wu Tong bowed. It was her honor to be of use.
After sending the data, Wu Tong returned to the experiment, repeatedly preparing the engine, running it three times, then four times, constantly verifying the engine's performance.
Although most missile engines are basically disposable, they also have to strive for excellence and carry out the most precise preparation and verification.
At the same time, other teams were working on the other components of the PL-15. On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Engineer Xu received the long-awaited call from Wu Tong.
"Boss Wu, we have lived up to your expectations and completed the mission. The missile body is ready!"
With an exciting report, the countdown to the completion of PL-15 began, and the preliminary assembly began. The engine, oxidizer storage tank, propellant storage tank, engine mount, tail wing... each preparation was carried out in full swing, like clockwork.
The 624th Institute is originally a missile research and testing base. These processing and manufacturing operations have complete production lines. Given precise dimensions, everything is within the processing range. After Wu Tong's order was issued, the entire base began to operate. The materials were all allocated in advance and prepared, and the funds were burned up.
Fortunately, Wu Tong was able to overcome many difficulties single-handedly, and most experiments were successful at the first try. The main cost was repeated preparation and verification, and the funds spent on their most difficult R&D stage in the early stage were not too much.
Now that we have really reached the stage of burning funds, we can still hold on and there is no need to apply for the second phase of funds for the time being.
The funding approved by the Research and Development Department at the time was only for initial R&D. They were prepared to constantly experiment and fail, burning through funds until they succeeded. They were also prepared for a potentially three to five-year battle.
However, Chu Hengyuan and Lin Zheming, who were in charge of the project, as well as the co-investors, the Air Force and the Artillery, never expected that Wu Tong could be so quick. Within a week or two of the project being launched, he could make two major breakthroughs, combining super fuel and super explosives, which directly gave them a big step forward in upgrades. In addition, he also had an N18 that could potentially create an artificial gas vein.
Before they could digest the shock of these two breakthroughs, just one month later, Wu Tong had led the team to develop a new engine, successfully test-run it, and laid the foundation for the initial miniaturization of air-to-air missiles.
They hadn't finished being excited about this progress. Just two or three days after flexing their muscles, Wu Tong made another breakthrough, providing the nation's missiles with the ability to upgrade to new fuels. He also successfully developed a super-high-temperature-resistant coating, which is absolutely indispensable for aerospace and a crucial cooling system design that improves performance by 50%...
Each of these major breakthroughs gave them a dazzling, thrilling roller coaster ride, a thrill so exhilarating they wanted to stand up and roar like a tsunami. They were once again incredibly grateful that they had made the right choice and trusted and supported Wu Tong. Wu Tong belonged to China.
