Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

Director Liu Qing of the military assembly office is still sitting in his office. His office is very simple, with a desk, a chair, and not even a bookshelf. There are just two phones on the table.

"Director, why don't you rest first? There will definitely be news tomorrow morning!"

"No rush, no rush, you little kids don't know that during the war, you didn't feel tired even if you didn't sleep for three days and three nights."

"But……"

The secretary immediately lost her guard when she saw the white hair on Director Liu Qing's head and his anxious expression.

"Hey, time can't wait!"

He could not understand the sense of urgency of the older generation.

After being sanctioned for twenty years, when I look at the world again, I have fallen far behind.

“Every breakthrough is a contribution to the country!”

"Director, but they all said that Institute 14 is not equipped to prepare eggs or anything..."

"Gallium nitride crystal!"

"They have no one and no equipment. I'm afraid the news is not true!"

"What do you know? As for Zhao Zhongshu, I believe that they must have done something? I just don't know how pure it can be?"

If it were anyone else, Director Liu might still be suspicious, but Zhao Zhongshu has dealt with him before and is not the kind of person who fires off cannons. Otherwise, the country would not have asked him to take the responsibility of flying C.

I don’t know how long it took.

The black phone on the table suddenly rang. Director Liu Qing stood up and picked up the phone with a solemn expression.

"Director, the preliminary test report is out. We have gallium nitride crystals, and the purity reaches 99.997%. This is a breakthrough, a huge breakthrough!"

"Director, what's wrong with you! Director, are you listening?"

Liu Qing's eyes became cloudy, he took a long breath and said one word.

"good!"

997, 997, better than imported ones. Not only does it save hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, but more importantly, it breaks the blockade. Liu Qing's director touched the red phone on the table with trembling hands...

…

In the conference room of Research Institute 152, the experts still wanted to continue, but Chief Engineer Zhao Zhongshu did not tolerate them.

"Let's talk about anything tomorrow!"

Back at the guest house, Director Gao wanted to make a phone call.

"Why are you panicking? Why don't you check what time it is?"

"Haha," Director Gao said, "I'm just happy!"

What kind of technical blockade? Just this... can it also be technically blocked? Director Gao has drifted away.

"I don't think the old Americans are that good! Xiao Zhao just worked on it for a few days. By the way, including the time to prepare equipment and materials, it actually took only one day..."

Zhao Zhongshu looked at Director Gao's appearance, shook his head and said, "Easy? Look at the engineers in the 152nd Institute, do you think they are all idiots..."

"..."

"Tell me, what's going on with Zhao Guoqing?"

"..." Director Gao didn't have much interaction with Zhao Guoqing. In fact, half a month ago, he didn't know there was a Zhao Guoqing in Institute 14.

"He's from Xidian. He originally came to study at MIT this year, but he gave up. He said he wanted to go to the most remote and difficult place to train, so Wang Zesheng recruited him..."

"Half a month ago, Deputy Chief Lu of the 53rd Institute came to the 14th Institute..."

Zhao Zhongshu asked: "How did the gallium nitride project get established? Why did you suddenly think of doing gallium nitride? Also, why didn't you report it to the headquarters?"

"Isn't this because I have no money?"

"No money, what does having no money have to do with gallium nitride? There are so many equipments, the sealed furnace of Factory 162, you said that after using it, you gave three fat pigs a thank you, right?"

"...General Master Zhao, you know everything!"

The world is declining and life is not easy. Borrowing these equipment will always cost money. If you have no money, you can only write a check.

"Don't go too far, let's talk about gallium nitride!"

"Actually, actually... we originally wanted to make light-emitting semiconductors... Xiao Zhao read from foreign journals that gallium nitride light-emitting semiconductors... may change the revolution of human lighting in the future..."

Gallium nitride is such an important strategic material. To make lighting, it would not be to build a flashlight factory or a light bulb factory! This... what the hell do you think... But as he continued to listen, Zhao Zhongshu fell silent.

"Xiao Zhao said that light-emitting semiconductors will have a wide range of applications in the future. They can be used in displays and military equipment. In the future, as technology advances, radars can also be used. You can apply for foreign patents and earn foreign exchange from the United States. Once you have money, you can still Introduce Western equipment and technology.”

"Patent? He knows about patents?"

Intellectual property rights were a new term in 1984. In fact, national patent protection will not be established until next year, and there is basically no introduction in the country.

"Well, this is called using civilians to support the army, using the people to support the army!"

This pattern came up, but as he continued to listen, Zhao Zhongshu still felt that he had underestimated Zhao Guoqing.

"Xiao Zhao said that we should open up the upstream and downstream industries, starting with the refining of rare earths. I have seen it. This gallium is more expensive than gold. Although there is no control abroad, a lot of money is spent on it every year!"

"call!"

"It's not just a lot of money, millions of dollars a year!"

The key is not just about money!

"The domestic rare earths only cost over 100 yuan per ton. Some people say that this is just a way to make money. If you just dig it up, you can make millions of dollars. They will transport it back, refine it, and sell it back at a thousand-fold increase. This Xiao Zhao, you have an idea!"

Director Gao took out a letter, handed it to Zhao Zhongshu and said, "I almost forgot, this letter was written by Xiao Zhao to Professor Xu from University B."

Zhao Zhongshu opened the letter.

"Quantum chemistry, chemical bond theory, coordination chemistry, extraction chemistry...based on the basic laws of rare earth chemical bonds, coordination chemistry and material structure...constant mixing extraction ratio..."

Even Zhao Zhongshu cannot understand all the corresponding formulas and theories...

“Have these theories been tested?”

Director Gao shook his head.

"Xiao Zhao said it was a scientific hypothesis and needed equipment verification. Institute 14 did not have the money to provide the conditions..."

"It doesn't matter how much it costs. If the argument is correct, the country will spend less money and earn more foreign exchange every year!"

"This Xiao Zhao's situation is not small!"

A college student who has just joined University 14 invites an associate professor from University B to build a laboratory together. This is quite courageous!

Director Gao shook his head and said: "Xiao Zhao is very aggressive and has a bold technical approach. He bluntly said that the future of radar lies in semiconductors, and this matter also needs to be studied!"

"You are being old-fashioned. No matter what route you take, you don't try it. When one day it is proven that semiconductors are the future, you will be far behind. Besides, Western electronic technology is indeed leading this era. ah!"

Although Mao Xiong and the West have different technical routes, they have many intersections. Semiconductor technology is also used by Mao Xiong, but the priority is divided.

The reason why Mao Xiong is rooted in electronic tubes is that it is very difficult for a Mao Xiong to change its technical route and make a U-turn if it has strong technical reserves in electronic tube technology.

The second thing.

"If you think Mao Xiong doesn't want to make semiconductor transistors, they just don't have the strength. As far as I know, Mao Xiong can't even make the high-purity gallium nitride crystal that Xiao Zhao has made!"

"No furry bears?"

"call!"

"This guy on National Day is really a monster. I was also present during the experiment. It doesn't look that difficult!"

Zhao Zhongshu shook his head and said: "Look at these formulas, molecular mechanics, atomic strong and weak forces, electron motion, quantum mechanics, covalent bonds. Just cut out a paragraph and publish it in the top domestic publications. I can't understand some of them. Without a strong theoretical reserve, you think it’s so easy.”

“It’s amazing that a college student has such rich theoretical knowledge and such a wide range of knowledge!”
