Two hours later.
Zhizi's voice rang out: "Master, a military helicopter is approaching."
At that moment, the roar of the helicopter reached Ye Chen's ears. He went up to the roof and just then General Chang got off the helicopter.
"Brother Chang, you're here so fast! Where did you come from?" Ye Chen quickly went up to greet him and asked curiously.
“I was on a mission in a neighboring province, and I came over immediately after receiving your call,” General Chang replied.
Ye Chen ushered General Chang into the study. As soon as they sat down, General Chang asked impatiently, "Is what you said on the phone earlier true?"
"Brother Chang, do you think I would lie to you?" Ye Chen replied with a smile.
"Are you really 90% confident that you can build a spaceplane?"
General Chang asked hurriedly, his body trembling uncontrollably. For a soldier like him, seeing China's seventh-generation fighter jet appear in his lifetime would be an immense comfort.
"The technical preparations for the space fighter are almost complete. With the successful development of miniaturized nuclear fusion equipment, we can realize things that seem like science fiction."
Meeting General Chang's expectant gaze, Ye Chen continued, "Currently, the main constraints on equipment performance are often power and material issues. Small-scale nuclear fusion equipment can perfectly solve the power problem."
Upon hearing this, General Chang quickly interrupted him, saying, "Stop, stop, stop! What did you just say? Small-scale nuclear fusion device? When did our country achieve miniaturization of nuclear fusion reactors?"
"This~"
Ye Chen gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I almost forgot, I haven't reported to my superiors yet. Yesterday, the Mousse Energy Laboratory manufactured a miniaturized prototype of the nuclear fusion reactor, and it's running well."
He paused for a moment, glanced at General Chang's blank expression, and then said, "I plan to miniaturize the nuclear fusion reaction and use it as the power source for aerospace fighters. This will greatly improve the fighter's range and power output."
"Holy crap!"
Once he came to his senses, General Chang couldn't help but blurt out his classic catchphrase, "Brother Ye, Brother Ye, you've given us a wonderful surprise! Let's go, let's go, let's go to the Mousse Group right now. I want to see this miniaturized nuclear fusion device with my own eyes!"
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to walk outside.
"No rush, no rush. The equipment isn't going anywhere. Let's talk about the space fighter first," Ye Chen quickly said with a smile, pulling him aside.
General Chang sat down again, now much more confident than when he first entered.
Indeed, with small nuclear fusion devices, many things have become much simpler.
"What stage are you at in your spaceplane research? Have you encountered any problems? Just let me know, and I'll be responsible for coordinating resources for you," General Chang said seriously.
"Thank you in advance. I do need some data, such as data from large-scale wind turbine experiments, near-Earth orbit environmental parameters..."
As Ye Chen rattled off one technical term after another, General Chang's expression grew increasingly interesting. However, upon reflection, he realized that these were indeed the technologies needed for aerospace fighters, especially those capable of flying in near-Earth orbit. So, he gritted his teeth and said, "No problem, leave it to me."
"Also, it's impossible for me to design the entire spaceplane by myself. I don't have that much energy. I need the cooperation of a top-notch aircraft design team and an aerospace research team to complete this project together," Ye Chen continued. It's not impossible for him to design a spaceplane from scratch by himself, but it would take too much time. It's much faster to work with the national team.
“No problem. Once I return to Beijing and report to the leaders, I will immediately arrange for these units to cooperate with you.”
This time, General Chang readily agreed.
"Then it's a deal," Ye Chen said with a smile.
"The spaceplane deal is done. Let's go take a look at the small nuclear fusion device," General Chang said.
......
When General Chang saw the small nuclear fusion device in the laboratory, he looked at him with the eyes of someone looking at a monster and said, "I really don't know how Brother Ye's brain is structured. Problems that others have spent their whole lives studying have been solved by you with ease. You are worth the entire scientific community of China!"
"Wait for my good news." With that, he hurried away.
With General Chang's return to Kyoto, the news that Ye Chen was preparing to develop an aerospace fighter jet caused a sensation among the entire military leadership.
His requests were passed without any controversy. Anyone who hesitated would be disrespecting the aerospace fighter!
With space fighters, how far away can space carriers be?
The Nantianmen Plan, originally intended to fool the US, might actually come to fruition!
Compared to the military leaders' enthusiasm for spaceplanes, the top leader and his ilk valued small nuclear fusion devices more.
This thing has such wide applications that it's safe to say that with it, China can truly take off.
All kinds of equipment and scenarios, both existing and imagined, can be realized.
Houses with constant temperature all day, streetlights that never go out, and even food that can be synthesized indefinitely.
As for all kinds of daily necessities, they can be supplied in unlimited quantities, truly ushering in an era of distribution based on demand!
Just one day later, Ye Chen received a reply from General Chang, saying that he could access the technical information he needed at any time, but he would have to go there in person.
In addition, the Chengdu J-20 design team will cooperate with him to complete the development of the spaceplane.
After receiving General Chang's reply, Ye Chen's first stop was Shufei Group, the research and development unit that developed the J-20.
Ye Chen was no longer an unknown figure in the scientific research community, and even showed signs of becoming a leading figure of the new generation.
Shufei Group attached great importance to Ye Chen's visit, especially after the higher-ups revealed the project to develop a seventh-generation fighter jet. As a result, all the main designers of the J-20 rushed to join the project.
For seven consecutive days, Ye Chen had extensive communication and exchanges with these aircraft designers. Although he possessed the entire technological knowledge of the Mous civilization, he never believed that he alone could realize these technologies in reality.
Therefore, the best option is to get everyone involved; one person cannot create a civilization.
Moreover, communication is a two-way street; there is always something to learn from others in a group of three!
Through exchanges with China's top aircraft designers, Ye Chen learned a great deal, optimized many of his previous imperfect designs, acquired a lot of new knowledge, and unlocked a significant amount of new knowledge about Mousse Technology in his mind.
The J-20 design team gained even more. Some of the problems they had been researching for a long time were easily solved with Ye Chen's casual guidance, and some ingenious designs made them admire Ye Chen to the point of prostration!
Although they only communicated for seven days, Ye Chen's extensive knowledge and ingenious ideas had completely won them over.
Those who engage in scientific research always only respect those who are more capable than themselves!
