Chapter 236 Return to PPT
The impact of the Lanque 1 explosion is still spreading.

Many international media outlets, under the instigation of their supporters, began to condemn and protest.

His words were rather harsh, claiming that Miaoyin, Shunfeng and the rabbit behind them would pay the price.

Wei Xiao, Xu Chuang and others were ready in the company, eagerly waiting for their revenge and ready to pay the price.

As a result, the biggest cost was that the company's public relations department started working overtime, entertaining reporters every day and was very busy.

at the same time.

Across the ocean.

Relevant practitioners have also become busy because of the issue of space debris.

Especially Best Whiteman.

Today, he has been promoted to the position of senior policy adviser in the Ministry of National Defense. He has great influence and is the invisible second-in-command.

He attended several hearings in recent days and finally finalized a plan called "Return to Space".

As soon as the plan was finalized, he took the draft to the sponsor's home.

"My old friend, the loss of a keyhole has made the Ministry of Defense a frightened bird."

Brolin, the director of the mansion, had a blank expression on his face, thinking that this was expected: "The Ministry of Defense doesn't really think that it was a mistake made by a private enterprise, does it?"

"The Department of Defense thinks that it doesn't matter what happened. What matters is that we lost a multi-billion-dollar satellite."

Brolin was still a little indifferent. After all, the satellite was not manufactured by his company. He just asked calmly, "Are there no countermeasures?"

"It depends on how the higher-ups think about it. But judging from the current situation, it seems that we have neither the position nor the ability to retaliate."

Brolin nodded, as if it had nothing to do with him.

As an oligarch in the aviation industry, he is still relatively clear-headed.

He knew that in this matter, they would ultimately suffer in silence and had no other choice.

If you really want to make a big deal out of it, it seems that they are not wrong.

Miaoyin and Shunfeng applied for a 300-kilometer orbit according to normal procedures, but due to a technical error, they flew to a position of 800 kilometers.

Although it's a bit outrageous, it seems to make sense.

the most important is.

The world has changed dramatically, time and space have changed, and the times are no longer the same.

In the past they could make baseless accusations and attacks on others, but not now.

If there is no sufficient reason, it is very likely that the enemy will be injured by 800 and your own losses will be 8,000.

"But this incident has made the gentlemen above nervous and created some crisis." Whiteman took out the documents he had brought with him and slowly handed them over.

Brolin took the document and after just two glances, he felt a little annoyed: "Return to Interstellar? They like to come up with fancy names. Are they planning to return to space?"

“No, this time the focus is more on drones,” Whiteman said with certainty.

The warning from Rabbit's use of commercial satellites to jam keyholes is clear.

They have begun to place heavy bets on orbital space.

This is an old topic.

It's been around for decades.

But at that time, most people were just imagining it, it was a strategic game, to put it bluntly, it was a lie.

Whoever draws the best pie wins.

But now it’s different, rabbits seem to have similar abilities.

Especially when it comes to drones.

Previous space transport vehicles had to take the load on the human body into consideration, so there were many restrictions when they were designed.

Nowadays, drones are developing rapidly and their technical indicators are rising again and again.

This solved a lot of the pain points at the time.

Whiteman's last position was in the drone field, so he is very familiar with this area.

The more familiar he became, the more worried he became.

“We’ve already lost everything on small drones.”

Brolin said sarcastically, "It's OK. Isn't ARD doing well recently?"

"From the looks of it, you seem to have something against our strong support for ARD?"

"No problem, I just don't like it. You seem to be more interested in emerging technology companies than the old military industry."

Brolin said one thing and meant another.

Of course he had objections.

All the money is flowing into emerging companies like ARD, so what do these old industries eat and drink?
Whiteman also understood Brolin's yin and yang, and gave him a reassurance: "Supporting ARD is a last resort. We must have our own drone industry, but I know that the little things ARD has done cannot determine the future."

"You don't think highly of their skills?"

"That's one thing, but more importantly, they will never be able to catch up with their opponents. If we have to pick a battlefield in the field of drones, large, high-speed drones are where our advantage lies."

Because of his position, Brolin felt more comfortable hearing this.

Small drones compete on innovation capabilities and industrial chains.

In this regard, our country has lagged behind.

But large drones mainly rely on technical reserves.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Although the aviation industry represented by Brolin shows signs of decline, it is still holding on.

If they have to fight, they feel they can still give it a try.

The draft before us is a quick-acting heart-saving pill.

The reason why Whiteman came to Brolin with the draft in the first place was not entirely because of vested interests.

A big part of the reason is that Brolin's company has technical reserves.

"I remember you had a space shuttle project before, right?"

"Yes, Project 37. It was already quite mature, but due to money issues, it was put on hold." Brolin nodded.

"You can restart now. You are far ahead of other companies. With some unmanned modifications, you will be the most favorable competitor for this project." Brolin thought there was no problem.

Project 37 was originally a space plane verification aircraft plan, and it performed well in all aspects.

However, with the slowdown of space strategy, this project has not found a sponsor, so subsequent research and development has almost come to a standstill.

Now the Department of Defense is betting big on returning to space.

Once we get the bid for this project, there will be a steady stream of funding.

Regardless of whether the project can be completed, there will definitely be benefits.

So he was very confident: "The parameters of Project 37 are indeed good, 12 meters long, 8 tons in weight, and only the lift coefficient is a little bit off, about 1.5."

"1.5 is not acceptable," Whiteman rejected immediately. "Other companies will also bet heavily on this project, and 1.5 is not competitive."

The data Brolin mentioned was before the project was suspended.

With each passing year, technology advances exponentially.

If other companies initiate a project, they will definitely come up with a lift coefficient that is better than this one.

Even though Whiteman has given Brolin some support, Brolin himself must also be excellent, otherwise the unspoken rules cannot guarantee that there will be no mistakes.

But Brolin has his own difficulties: "After all, it is an aerospace plane, and the technology is very difficult. Even if we restart the laboratory to tackle the problem, it will probably take longer than expected."

Whiteman kept winking and saying, "Who asked you to tackle my old friend again?"

Brolin understood immediately.

It is currently only in the bidding stage.

To put it bluntly, everyone is still playing with PPT.

Since it is a PPT, it’s okay if the data is a little exaggerated, it all depends on people writing it.

Get the bid first, and there will be plenty of time for subsequent research and development.

Take a thousand steps back.

Even if the data cannot be improved subsequently, there is still some forgiveness.

After all, it is high-tech and cutting-edge technology, and it is not something that can be conquered just by saying so.

Finally, just apologize.

"Understood. Then we will approve the project based on a 12-meter-long, 8-ton, 2.0-lift coefficient, 25 times the speed of sound, fully stealthy large-scale unmanned space launch platform."

After hearing Brolin's lengthy proposal, Whiteman was satisfied: "If you come up with such a plan, I can guarantee that you will win the bid."

"I can come up with a plan, but I still need a little help."

"for example?"

"For example, unmanned flight control."

Brolin is a bit confident about aerodynamic design and power.

After all, I am in the traditional aviation industry and have been working in it all my life.

Since the rise of drones, he has also tried to join the market competition.

The results were far from satisfactory.

In terms of unmanned flight control and intelligence, they are always in the second echelon.

Brolin knew that Whiteman's previous work was in this field, so he generously asked for help:
"Since the 37th project is being restarted as an unmanned transport project, I still need some talent reserves in this area. Do you have any suitable candidates?"

"What a coincidence! I actually have a candidate under investigation."

"Give me the contact information." Brolin wanted to make the decision right away.

But Whiteman waved his hand and said, "It's not that simple. This person has a complicated background. He is of Chinese descent, and both his parents are Chinese, so some background checks are needed..."

While talking.

Brolin pulled up a document on his phone.

This was the conclusion they reached after a secret review.

It records details such as the person being investigated's social relationships, recent words and deeds, etc.

Brolin read the results carefully.

【Hu Tianhe】

【Automation Laboratory, School of Automation, University of California】

[Once worked briefly at a research institute at the University of Tokyo]

【………】

Brolin was already very satisfied seeing this.

Sufficient education.

The most important thing is that I have experience working in the Graduate School of the University of Tokyo.

You should know that when it comes to drones, Todai is at a very high level.

"Since he is doing relevant research at the University of Tokyo, there should be no problem with his personal level."

Whiteman nodded. “Indeed, I once wanted to fund his laboratory to conduct special research, but I was a little hesitant because of his background.”

Hearing this, Brolin continued reading.

The investigation report was very detailed and included records of his social network and speeches on social media platforms.

Most of the time, this person turns into a troll, arguing with netizens from the University of Tokyo, and his remarks and stance are whiter than those of the rednecks.

"I don't see any problem. Isn't his hatred for the University of Tokyo the result of our cognitive warfare?"

"If you think it's okay, I can find a way to get in touch."

"Of course no problem, I just want talent."

Brolin agreed readily and looked eager to find talent.

But actually.

He doesn't care about the person's skin color or position.

As long as you have some skills and make a good PPT, what he says or does has nothing to do with you.
