Super technology leader

"Hey, Old Tang, rest assured this time, even if your engine has ten tons of thrust, this test stand won't have any problems. Guaranteed quality!"

"You're really going all out, spending so much money on just a test stand."

"We were having a lot of fun playing with our own amateur rockets, but ever since we went back last time, looking at our own rockets just feels dull. I feel like this is all Tang Chao's fault."

"That's because you saw the big stuff, and now looking at the small things, of course, it feels uninteresting, hahaha!"

"But it really was big last time, it looked very impactful. This time, the appearance is basically unchanged, and the thrust has been increased by more than double. Tang Chao, you're really amazing!"

"What are you guys talking about? I smell exhaust fumes."

A group of people were busy around a brand new steel frame and a new thruster, chatting and laughing.

When they finally got to Tang Chao, pure as he was, he naturally couldn't understand the implications of what they were saying. However, their praise did make him feel a little embarrassed.

"No, the design and manufacture of the thruster were mostly done by others. I just did a little bit of work. It's just that they are relatively shy, so I stepped up."

That's what he said, but everyone took it as modesty.

Since they could become friends, they definitely knew something about him, even if it wasn't comprehensive.

They had a small, highly technical group, which gathered a bunch of people who liked building rockets, as well as big shots from professional institutions. Tang Chao wasn't exactly outstanding in it, but he wasn't a nobody either.

He could participate in some topics. Not saying how he would do in practice, but his theory was definitely solid.

They hadn't seen him build rockets, but they could tell from his model-making skills that his hands-on ability was definitely not bad.

So, they didn't find it too strange that Tang Chao came up with rocket thrusters these two times. It's just that these designs were really strong.

The appearance and thrust were imitating those from the game, which was very much Tang Chao's usual style and his hobby.

After fixing the thruster, Old Yang patted the steel frame and looked at Tang Chao, "Hey, Old Tang, why is your 'Shrimp' thruster different from the one in the game? It feels a lot shorter."

Tang Chao heard this and looked at the data on the computer and said, "The one in the game is four meters long. Making it 1:1 is too troublesome, and I'm just doing a test to verify whether it can reach the designed 2.7 tons of thrust, so I made it a bit shorter."

"If the size is wrong, you can't call it 'Shrimp' anymore, but you can call it 'Little Shrimp', that's more fitting."

No one else had any objections to this sentence, but one of the team members suddenly laughed, "Little Shrimp? Are you thinking of the shrimp legs or shrimp balls on Bilibili?"

"Oh, I knew that every time you watch 'Great Model King', you're not watching model figures, you're watching their thighs. You're craving their..."

"Right, right, right, I'm craving their models. There's a new model that just came out recently, and I've been wanting to buy it, but unfortunately, I don't have enough money."

"Bah, don't change the subject!"

Speaking of this, the crowd was filled with a happy atmosphere, only Tang Chao was addicted to big rockets and couldn't extricate himself, urging them to finish fixing it quickly so he could test it.

Not only did the amateur rocket team have confidence in this test stand, but he himself also had confidence, because he paid for the materials himself, and then asked the team members to help put it together.

The team was originally modifying their own small rocket, but when they heard that Tang Chao had come up with a stronger thruster, they immediately put down their own rocket to help Tang Chao.

It's like a person who likes military affairs is playing with fighter plane models, and then a fighter plane manufacturer invites you to their factory to help test fighter planes. That feeling is so exciting.

If you can touch a fighter plane, who would still play with models!

Now, it's still after-work hours, and they've gathered here again.

Because this time the power was greater, they hid even further away.

Not only did Tang Chao bring a laptop, but their team also brought two, three laptops were placed together, displaying different content, and one person was holding a camera next to them, looking more formal than last time.

Looking at the time, Tang Chao felt it was almost time, so he put his finger on the "Confirm" button.

"5, 4, 3, 2, 1, ignite!"

"Click~"

"Rumble--"

It didn't explode, it was a normal start.

I have to say, 2.7 tons of thrust is much more explosive than 1.1 tons of thrust.

The huge roar was exciting to hear!

With the experience from last time, the arrangement of the cameras has changed a bit this time, but the position of the camera directly behind the thruster has not changed, but it has been replaced with a robust, drop-resistant, and high-temperature resistant professional camera.

Yes, it's the kind of camera on an orbital rocket.

He wanted the shot of the camera being blown away, and even specially placed some heavier things in front of the camera this time, such as stones, scrap iron pipes, etc., to visually highlight the huge thrust of the thruster with the phenomenon of them being blown away.

And the huge cloud of smoke that is always there every time.

This kind of shot is exciting and can impress the audience.

The current thrust is still small. When testing solid-fuel engines with greater thrust in the future, we will use even larger objects as reference objects, and that scene will be even more exciting!

Other professional companies need professionalism for testing, after all, their engines are going on rockets, but Tang Chao doesn't need to consider these, at least not now.

He has no solid rocket engines in his future plans, so using these things to show more "entertainment" is in line with his needs.

This time, there's nothing to say, it was really successful.

However, this test stand is also at the end of its use, because the thruster he will bring out next time will have a thrust of 16.6 tons.

There's no way, according to the Kerbal solid booster level, the third-to-last "Flea" has such a large thrust.

He was also very helpless.

The latest novel is first published at 69shuba!

After finishing work, Tang Chao treated them to dinner, after all, they came to help.

Although Tang Chao didn't directly give rewards, he gave them something they couldn't refuse.

The engine casing after the test.

Why do they play amateur rockets?

It's because they can't get professional rockets.

Tang Chao was worried about how to deal with it after the test. Seeing that they were envious, he directly gave it to them.

The same was true last time. He also gave them some testing equipment.

Perhaps in the eyes of the team members, these things are too precious, but for Tang Chao, this thing is almost free, and it's troublesome and time-consuming for him to deal with the "wreckage" afterward. Giving it to them is simply too easy, which is equivalent to asking them to help a second time.

But he was not embarrassed. These things are garbage to him, but the amateur rocket team can learn a lot from them.

Equivalent to... everyone earns.

They had a good barbecue at a food stall. The team happily took the engine back to study, while Tang Chao went back to edit the video.

He is now a certified UP with nearly 300,000 fans. The next goal is one million. I don't know if it will take two or three videos. He is looking forward to it.

He has skills in editing videos. He directly drills into Kerbin with a mobile hard drive, and he can upload the video an hour later on Earth.

But how about Kerbin's computer technology? It's a bit different from Earth's.

The computer's appearance is ten years behind Earth. It is still the kind of square-edged monitor, even the early big-butt shape of the Earth, which is quite solid.

The screen resolution is also not good, similar to the level of Earth a dozen years ago.

But the parts inside the host are not behind at all, even more advanced than Earth.

Because of the physique of the little green people, the size of various parts is also very small. Compared with the same level of parts on Earth, the size is only one-half or even smaller.

Being able to make parts smaller is a manifestation of advanced technology.

This is also the reason why Tang Chao did not directly use Kerbin's computer after his computer was damaged.

The difference is too obvious.

Anyway, he won't use these parts in the short term.

It's just that Kerbin's hardware technology is so developed, but network application technology and artificial intelligence technology are like the development of the screen, which is quite different from Earth.

Their computer defense technology is actually very high. Tang Chao's computer used their technology to block network intrusions before. The reason why this happens is probably because there is no demand.

In fact, humans didn't expect the current network technology to be so developed, because according to humans' previous ideas, Earth should have opened Mars flights by now.

As a result, they are still struggling on Earth, and the most promising space agency once needed help from other agencies for manned spaceflight.

On the contrary, Kerbin is quite like the future that humans had previously envisioned, with space technology as the main body of society.

This is probably an unforeseen path.
