Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

He didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so quick. Bodin knew that he might not be able to take advantage in a verbal spat. Although he is older, he may not necessarily have as much experience in dealing with people as the kid in front of him. After all, where is the identity of the other party? He has dealt with almost every leader of a major country in the world, as well as well-known business tycoons.

Over the years, you may have suffered losses, but you have already tempered yourself; therefore, there is no need to get too entangled with the other party on this matter. We can only wait until Bao Zixuan leaves, investigate his influence on the students, and provide guidance.

Seeing that the break was almost over, the question-and-answer session began immediately. Time is limited, so you can’t waste too much time at the University of Copenhagen; at the same time, the longer you delay, the more dangerous it is. There are so many students coming here, and they are still increasing. Everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the rich man Bao. After all, there were many people in that era who were star-chasing.

As the best university in Denmark, the playground area is not small; but it cannot handle the large number of people, and they are all talented people, so they dare not cause problems. If that were the case, Denmark would instantly become an international laughing stock.

In fact, long before Bao Zixuan agreed to come and give a speech, various majors at the University of Copenhagen had already assigned tasks. There are not many opportunities to ask the master for advice, and no one wants to miss it.

Bao Zixuan's major is aviation power and machinery manufacturing. Although he has made greater achievements in the computer field, in order to respect tradition, aviation majors still have to ask questions first.

Moreover, Bao Zixuan's achievements in the field of aviation power are not bad at all; they are even greater than those of many chief engineers of Boeing and Airbus. It's just that because the halo in other fields is so shining, it doesn't feel like there's anything outstanding about it.

A female student asked: "Hello, Academician Bao! I am an aviation major, and as the world's most authoritative aviation power expert, what direction do you think future aircraft should develop in?"

This topic is a bit big, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get back to it; even if ordinary scholars give answers, they may not be convincing. But Bao Zixuan is different. As the world's most authoritative expert, he is also the richest businessman. As long as it is something he is sure of, he will spare no effort in investment and research and development; even if it feels unfeasible, with strong financial support and the addition of countless technical personnel, it may be successful.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It is a big topic as to which direction the aviation field should develop in the future."

"But I think that in the future, the categories of manned aircraft will be more abundant, and of course competition will be more intense; the price of a single aircraft will be further reduced."

"In the field of electric power enterprise operations, I am more optimistic about the vertical takeoff and landing of gasoline-electric hybrid fixed-wing manned aircraft. Multi-rotor manned aircraft are leeward and consume high energy. It is difficult to achieve long endurance under the existing battery energy density."

"With the continuous improvement of modern communication technology, future manned aircraft will have more precise map transmission and beyond-visual-range control; they will be larger in size and stay in the air longer; their flight control will be more precise, and bombing incidents will become less and less common. . The performance of airborne imaging equipment is stronger, power line fault finding is becoming more and more accurate, and it will become a reality to be able to work in severe weather such as rain and snow. In an emergency, the operator only needs to remotely monitor or issue instructions. Even more powerful Manned aircraft can send maintenance personnel to the tower and transport heavy objects, which are all unknown. There are endless possibilities in the future, and small manned aircraft have great potential."

"As for civil aviation aircraft, they should develop in the direction of electric engines and transparent fuselages."

"The most interesting aspect of future commercial aircraft will be their novel appearance; in other words, they will have a completely new construction. This is not the first time in the history of aviation. For example, in the first few years after the invention of the airplane Over the course of a decade, single-engine wooden biplanes were gradually replaced by multi-engine, all-metal aircraft."

"Today, flying-wing aircraft without a clear fuselage are one of the main structures of future aircraft developed in various projects. This is not a new idea. In fact, since the 1920s and 1930s, flying-wing aircraft The idea of ​​an airplane has already been created, and many prototypes of this type have been built. It was originally designed not only for air passenger transportation, but also took into account the prospect of military use. This design can bring many advantages, such as reducing the size of the aircraft. The resistance encountered means lower fuel consumption, faster flight speed and longer range. These advantages are very important for fighters and bombers. A prominent example in this regard is the HH-01 Phantom stealth fighter-bomber of the Black Cloud Group. "

"However, flying-wing aircraft have problems with control and stability. Some complex functional operations can only rely on the pilot's personal abilities. Therefore, flying-wing aircraft have never been manufactured and applied on a large scale. Until today, flying-wing aircraft have never been able to be manufactured and applied on a large scale. Wing aircraft are still a "forbidden zone" in the field of commercial passenger aircraft research and development. However, advanced fly-by-wire flight control systems have solved many problems that plagued flying wing aircraft, including center of gravity control problems. With fuel consumption, the aircraft's The center of gravity will continue to change. With the help of the fly-by-wire flight control system, the pilot can use a gamepad-style control device to control various flight parameters of the aircraft."

"The flying wing is not the only future aircraft structure under development. On the contrary, there are many novel structures waiting for developers to turn them into reality, including biplanes with diamond-shaped wings. A wing-body aircraft with layers of wings joined together at the tip; a wing-body aircraft with thick wings that smoothly blend into the fuselage, with no clear demarcation between the wings and the fuselage; a biplane with wings arranged one behind the other ; and sleeve-type rotor engine-driven aircraft, etc.”

"These futuristic aircraft may seem like the stuff of science fiction, but they all seek to address shortcomings in existing aircraft architectures. There is really only one existing aircraft architecture, and despite all its shortcomings, it is expected to continue to be used. For a longer time. This structure includes a cylindrical fuselage that is long or short, thick or thin, and of course, some parts are oval; a pair of wings is located approximately in the middle of the fuselage, and some aircraft will be further back. The auxiliary wing; the vertical tail is responsible for controlling direction, and the horizontal tail is responsible for controlling altitude; the engine is usually suspended under the wing, and the rear-engine layout has gradually been abandoned by commercial airliners because this layout will bring greater cabin noise. And limit the space in the fuselage for loading luggage and supplies.”

"There is no doubt that the appearance of future aircraft will look amazing today, but the interior of its cabin will also undergo earth-shaking changes. In recent years, the aviation manufacturing industry has been brewing a major change that will profoundly change the air travel experience. . In the future, we will be in a cabin environment that is very different from today, and will have a completely new flying experience, which is by no means comparable to today’s first class cabins.”

"On future long-haul flights, passengers will have enough privacy to rest comfortably on the aircraft. This will be similar to the sleeper cars of some high-speed trains. While enjoying their own space, passengers will be connected to the outside world. Maintaining smooth real-time communication. Passengers can choose and enjoy various entertainment services through advanced touch screens dedicated to each person, and can also work or create art during the journey."

"Currently, about 40% of passengers believe that air travel is depressing and boring. Therefore, if you want to win the market, you must get ahead of other competitors, otherwise you will be eliminated by the market."

"About military aircraft, many of them need to be kept secret; and they are also relatively sensitive, so I won't introduce them in detail here."

"As for why I mentioned small aircraft first, it's because they are more suitable for you students. There is no derogatory meaning, large civilian passenger aircraft, or military fighter jets. Not to mention students, even the Danish government can't do anything about it."

I didn't expect to hear so much useful information, which shows Bao Zixuan's attitude. Even if he does nothing, this answer alone is enough to be worthy of his status as a foreign academician of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences.

And the suggestions given were indeed very reasonable, and even Principal Bodin could not find anything wrong with them. As the other party said, the entire country of Denmark may not be able to make achievements in large passenger aircraft and advanced fighter jets. After all, this is not the period of World War II. Aircraft structures are becoming more and more complex and their performance is becoming more and more advanced. Small countries are basically excluded and have no possibility of entering.

Even though Sweden, its neighbor next door, has a population twice as large as Denmark; it is true that it has made certain achievements in the field of fighter jets, but it is much worse than the United States and the Soviet Union; and it does not even have any advantage compared to France.

As the other party said, perhaps small aircraft are the most suitable topic for Danish students to study.
