Chapter 204 Seeing you is like seeing a mountain

With the release of the former captives, the tempo of disputes at sea finally began to slow down.

Of course, this does not mean that the confrontation between the two sides is over. The final winner still lies in that decisive piece of equipment:

Large cutter suction dredger.

After all, Treasure Island is just an island, and there are hundreds of such islands on the sea.

Even if they give up Treasure Island, it will not be a complete failure for Vietnam, they still have more opportunities.

Therefore, Chen Nian did not relax at all.

He still allocated time as planned to participate in the Sky Whale project, proposing solutions to various relatively complex problems, and this also brought him the return of technological fission.

Although the number is not too much for the time being, only 0.8 points, but with the 2.3 points of the DF-17 project, he also got a total of 3.1 points of extra income.

These 3 source points helped him achieve his first small breakthrough since obtaining the system, that is, he had accumulated enough 10 source points.

He was still vaguely looking forward to it in his heart, thinking that according to the general routine, when the accumulation reaches a certain critical value, the system should undergo some kind of evolution and become more powerful.

But obviously, his own system is really that simple and straightforward.

It really doesn't respond at all except for changes in numbers.

However, don't expect too much.

After all, the effect of this thing is big enough.

However, the large increase in the number of source points gave him a signal.

Just like what Chen Guo said before, I should think carefully about how to get out of the shackles of "military industry" and "single equipment" and engage in something that can fundamentally improve the national strength and strengthen the foundation. technology and equipment.

architecture? energy? food?

Chen Nian couldn't figure out where to start first, but he was not in a hurry.

When the Xinghuo team was first established, it was actually to provide him with guidance on the direction. In this case, let them organize a seminar first and give the direction to themselves.

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone, explained the situation to Chen Guo, and made his request.

Naturally, Chen Guo would not refuse him, but after talking about the business, he brought another unexpected news to Chen Nian.

Someone wants to meet him.

".Who is it, I can't tell you for the time being, because this matter is still highly confidential so far."

"However, what I can tell you is that it won't do you any harm to go."

"And, from what I know about you, you shouldn't be disappointed."

Chen Nian was at a loss when he heard it, and for a while he couldn't figure out why he had to be so mysterious.

Highly confidential?

That is to say, the other party's level of secrecy is still higher than his own?

Who would that be?

number 1?

No, of course I'm not saying I'm not qualified to meet No. 1, but it's really not necessary.

As for the leader of the technical department, it seems unlikely.

According to Chen Guo's general operation, it should be to let them take the initiative to come to see her.

Wouldn't it be the legendary "special department"?

What kind of things like polling bureaus and dragon groups.

Moreover, Chen Guo knew who it was, why couldn't she tell herself?

Is the principle of information minimization going to be so stuck?

Chen Nian shook his head and asked:

"When will we meet? Where will we meet?"

Chen Guo on the opposite side replied:

"The time can be arranged tomorrow, and I can't tell you the location—but, you have to fly."

It's getting more and more mysterious.

This aroused Chen Nian's curiosity, he thought for a moment, and replied:

"Then go slowly, shall we set off tonight?"

"Yes, if you want to go, let's go tonight!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for your arrangement."

After chatting about the details of the itinerary, the two hung up the phone.

In the afternoon of that day, Chen Nian got on a plane whose destination was unknown, and then he left from a completely unfamiliar airport and took a special car to an unknown destination.

Of course, out of respect for him, he was not blindfolded, and the window glass was not covered. From the scenery outside the window, he could vaguely judge that this was the south.

The karst landform, plus the evergreen broad-leaved forest, looks like the Lingnan area.

However, what the hell is this car driving all the way into the mountains?

Could it be some secret missile base?

See DF-17? !

Chen Nian became interested all of a sudden, he poked his head out and approached Chen Guo in the front seat, and asked:

"Are we here to see missiles?"

Chen Guo smiled and replied:

"No, I've already said it depends on the person. There are no missiles here."

"So who the hell is here, can't you tell me?"

Chen Nian asked helplessly.

Looking at Chen Nian's expression, Chen Guo shook her head lightly, and replied:

"Actually, we can say it a long time ago. When you agree, we can say it."

"But don't you want a surprise?"

"I do not want."

Chen Nian replied immediately.

"Old Qian."

Chen Guo replied.

Chen Nian's eyes widened.

Two hours later, Chen Nian finally arrived at his destination.

This is a sanatorium located in the deep mountains. It is heavily guarded, but it is full of comfort after careful design.

After the staff who came to greet them confirmed the identities of Chen Nian and Chen Guo, they hurried forward to shake hands warmly.

Afterwards, he led the two of them all the way to the depths of the nursing home.

"This sanatorium is actually a relic, which was used by a marshal at the time."

"Let's not talk about the above-ground environment, what's more important is its underground fortifications."

"Its protection level can guarantee that it will remain self-sustaining for more than 3 years in the face of a nuclear weapon attack. Since it was restored to use, it has only changed two owners before and after."

"Before 2000, this place was actually vacant all the time. It wasn't until the past few years that Mr. Qian moved in because of his poor health."

"The air here is good for his recovery, but overall, his physical condition is still good."

"Generally speaking, it is a series of geriatric diseases."

"The bones in the legs and waist are not good, and the mind is not particularly clear."

"But he cares about the news very much. The reason why he wants to meet you this time is also because of his request for a roll call."

"I'll see him in a while. If possible, talk to him about DF-17."

"He is very interested in this, maybe, a better mood will help him"

Listening to the other party's introduction, Chen Nian sighed heavily.

He didn't know what kind of mood he should use to face this meeting.

Chen Guo didn't know, and neither did the staff, but he himself knew clearly that from this moment until the stars of the Republic fell, in fact, there were less than 4 years left.

This star once ignited itself in the most difficult time, illuminated the barren desert, and illuminated the way forward for this country.

But now, his fuel has been gradually burned out.

This is the fate of the stars, Chen Nian shouldn't be too sad.

Even for a long time, knowing that his own research had many overlaps with the old man's research, he chose to ignore and avoid it on purpose.

However, when he heard the name from Chen Guo, he suddenly realized that maybe some things were destined to be his own responsibility.

Could it be that what I have done is just for progress and for the future?

Actually not.

At the same time, it is also an account of history.

After the predecessors blazed a trail through all obstacles, I also have the obligation to let them know that this road has not been narrowed down.

On the contrary, it grows wider and brighter.

If this is not the case, people who are still walking on the road like myself, what face do they have to face those martyrs who have been buried beside the road?

Thinking of this, Chen Nian's eyes gradually became clear.

He strode to keep up with the staff walking in front, and after a series of aseptic treatments, he finally walked into the bedroom and saw the old man on the hospital bed.

"Old Qian, Chen Nian is here to see you."

The staff raised their voices and shouted.

The old man on the hospital bed lowered his head slightly, as if he wanted to see the person coming at the door clearly. The nurse who was taking care of him quickly adjusted the angle of the bed for him so that he could see Chen Nian effortlessly.

"Chen Nian, who is it?"

Qian Lao said vaguely.

The staff wanted to answer, but the next second, Qian Lao's voice suddenly increased.

"Oh! Great scientist Chen Nian! You are here!"

The corners of Chen Nian's eyes were a little wet. He walked forward, sat down on the stool he had prepared, and said:

"Old Qian, I'm here to see you!"

Hearing his words, Qian Lao had a smile on his face.

He looked Chen Nian up and down, and then asked:

"Great scientist, you are here, why don't you bring something? They said, you made the Dongfeng missile? Where is the missile? I didn't see it."

Chen Nian shook his head and smiled, and replied:

"Old Qian, you can't bring missiles here."

"The next time I come to see you, I'll bring you the missile model."

"What's so cool about the model"

Old Qian pursed his lips and continued:

"I'm kidding you, how can anyone see someone with a missile? Do you really think I'm demented?"

"You don't need to bring anything, I'm very happy to see you."

After finishing speaking, Mr. Qian took a few breaths, and he stretched out his hand with difficulty, as if he wanted to hold Chen Nian's hand.

Chen Nian hurried up, and he immediately felt the strength of this old man who was clearly in his old age.

Qian Lao stroked Chen Nian's palm and said with some emotion:

"This is the hand that does scientific research! The skin is so smooth, it looks like it doesn't need to do heavy work."

"Compared to our time, your conditions are much better now."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.

That's right, the current conditions, the generation older than Qian, are so good that I don't know where to go.

What kind of scene is that in the desert of Lop Nur?

The wind and sand were all over the sky, and it was hard to keep my eyes open.

The temperature difference between day and night is frightening. During the day, it is like being roasted in an oven, and at night, it is like falling into an ice cave.

Even more difficult is the problem of food and water.

The country is newly established, and a thousand wastes are waiting for prosperity. Everyone can't eat enough. In the most difficult time, even a bite of wild vegetable soup must be given priority to scientific researchers.

But those ordinary soldiers drank bitter and salty saline water, leaving precious fresh water for the cement needed for infrastructure.

It was under such conditions that the group of scientists including Mr. Qian at that time created the world's most terrifying, vicious, and most deterrent monster on the barren desert. weapons.

None of their hands are not covered with calluses, and none of their faces are not weather-beaten. If they are thrown into the crowd, they will be no different from hard-working workers and farmers except for the heavy glasses in front of them.

——

Even more haggard.

Thinking of this, Chen Nian said with shame:

"I am indeed more inclined to theory now, and I rarely go to the scene."

Hearing his words, Mr. Qian stared.

"Engaging in theory is also a great scientist!"

"You don't have to go to the scene, as long as you can solve the problem, you are a good comrade!"

"Look, you solved the problem I didn't solve!"

"Dongfeng 17 is very good!"

"I'm not criticizing you by saying this, Chen Nian, I'm not criticizing you."

Qian Lao's eyes gradually became a little confused, and his eyelids drooped.

He seemed to have forgotten what he said, but just when everyone thought he was going to sleep, he suddenly shouted:

"Their aircraft carrier is useless!"

He held Chen Nian's hand tightly and said word by word:

"You are fine."

"I am a great scientist, and you, Chen Nian, are also a great scientist."

"I solved the problems of the sky, and you solved the problems of the sea."

"Your contribution is at least as great as mine!"

"When you are free, you move to my place! I have a lot to say to you"

"Speak, I'll listen."

Chen Nian sat up straight and signaled the nurse at the side to lower the bed. Mr. Qian spit out a few words intermittently, and continued after his breathing gradually stabilized:

"In our country, there is no good time."

"When the country was first established, they threatened us with the air force."

"In the Northern Dynasties, we beat them so much that they ran away thinking it was over. As a result, they threatened us with atomic bombs."

"We have no choice but to engage in an atomic bomb."

"Great desert, it's too difficult."

"Big Brother doesn't care about us, outsiders laugh at us, saying, we want to ride a bicycle to the moon."

"They didn't expect, we went up!"

"After the atomic bomb was released, we lived a peaceful life for a few years, but now, the reconnaissance plane is here again, the spy satellite is here again, and the aircraft carrier is here again."

"Being behind, always falling behind, always being bullied."

"I don't know when it will be the end."

Having said that, Mr. Qian turned around slightly, looked at Chen Nian, and said word by word:

"What I'm most afraid of is the aircraft carrier."

"Chen Nian, I'm into rockets, I don't know about aircraft carriers."

"I don't understand it, how can I beat it?"

"I'm in a hurry, I can't wait to use the rocket to hit the aircraft carrier."

"But how?"

"It's difficult."

"I'm old too, and I look forward to it every day, someone can solve the problem of the aircraft carrier."

"Counting it all together, I've been looking forward to it for 20 years."

"In the beginning, we made DF-15, and everyone thought there was hope, but I knew it was not enough"

Qian Lao coughed twice, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"But for now, DF-17, sure enough."

"I heard that you scared away their aircraft carrier formation?"

Chen Nian nodded firmly without hesitation.

"Scared away."

"I can rest assured that."

Qian Lao lay back on the bed again, his eyes fixed on the ceiling above his head, and he said leisurely:

"You boy, you can really do it"

"Two days ago, someone showed me a video of the DF-17 experiment."

"I spoke to them."

"I said."

"What did I say"

Old Qian's voice gradually dropped.

Chen Nian didn't bother him, this time, he really fell asleep.

Several people got up quietly and exited the room.

The turmoil in Chen Nian's heart was not calm yet, he even forgot to ask the staff for confirmation, what exactly Mr. Qian said at that time.

All he remembered in his heart was the old man's wrinkled but still resolute face.

The old man was clearly too weak to get up.

But in Chen Nian's view, seeing him was still like seeing a mountain.

Can only look up.

It wasn't until he reached the lobby of the nursing home that the staff on the side patted his arm lightly and said:

"Comrade Chen Nian, I still want to tell you what Mr. Qian didn't finish just now."

Chen Nian immediately stood still and stood in awe.

The staff looked at him solemnly, and said word by word:

"Elder Qian said at the time that only after seeing Dongfeng 17 did he know why God wanted him to live so long."

"He also said that he wants to live for more than ten years, and then take a look."

"He said, tell Chen Nian not to worry, he will try his best to wait for you."
