The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master

The U.S. Air Force has increased the R\u0026D funding for the X51A and adjusted its priority from a simple technology verification project to a weapon prototype that will eventually be put into service. This has been officially confirmed by the U.S. military about a year and a half ago.

But even for Chang Haonan, who had expected this, the news was indeed a bit sudden.

The fact that the project originally planned to be tested in 2009 could be advanced by two years is a bit inconsistent with his stereotype of Americans.

Although stereotypes are stereotyped, they are correct most of the time.

It is obvious that Americans have been stimulated more than expected in recent years.

It’s just that because the second term of the Little Bush, which was deserted by everyone, has entered the second half, the main situation of the two parties is on the election, so it is not very obvious to the outside world.

After this round of change of power, I am afraid that the pressure from the Pacific will increase.

Moreover, with the continuous progress of China in the economic, technological and military fields, the differences between the two sides in fundamental needs will sooner or later be greater than the superficial common interests.

Once a certain balance point is broken, the illusory calm will be broken...

"I just don't know how long the EU can hold out..."

Chang Haonan looked at a military expert named Zhang on the TV screen who was introducing how hypersonic weapons would affect the war form, and thought helplessly-

Now it has been almost 11 years since the rebirth, and the external environment has changed dramatically compared to the original timeline. He doesn't know much about economics. At most, he has learned some basic common sense from his work over the years. He has no way of judging whether the global financial crisis will come as expected.

In principle, cyclical economic crises belong to the underlying logic of capitalism. It is a matter of sticking your head out and getting a knife. It will happen sooner or later.

But this is just a cold theory.

Just like the basic theory of building a rocket is nothing more than Newton's third law.

For analyzing specific problems, the time point when things happen is the most critical.

From the perspective of hindsight, the financial crisis in 2008 undoubtedly bought China a few years of precious development time, but the resulting European debt crisis also caused the entire eurozone's originally good development momentum to suffer a second setback. Combined with the impact of a large number of refugees in West Asia and North Africa, it indirectly led to the entire European Union leaving the table and gradually losing its international status as an independent player.

Although the current eurozone is strong on the surface because it was not hit by the Balkan situation in the early years, it is precisely because of this strength that they have become more radical in expanding their membership, and the development of member states using the same currency is extremely unbalanced.

It's okay if there is no problem, but once there is a thunder, it will explode even more brilliantly...

Thinking about it this way, although China and the EU are still in a cooperative relationship overall, for the sake of safety, some things should be considered first.

Although Chang Haonan doesn't understand economics, he knows a little about technology.

At this moment, he is still hugging Yao Mengna to watch TV, but his mind is already calculating the various European treasure small businesses that he has learned about during the cooperation over the years.

As the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, although Europe suffered heavy losses after the two world wars, the categories of modern technology are too complex, and there are still many inconspicuous but key links in their hands.

These companies may not be large in scale, and many of them are even operated in a way close to family workshops. Once there is a problem with the capital chain, they often go bankrupt without even the chance to be acquired.

Just like capillaries, you may not feel them when they are there, but if they are gone, it will cause a big blow.

In the previous life, after 2020, the quality of many Western products fell sharply, which was largely related to this.

Rather than losing them or letting the Americans take them away and waste them, it is better to change the environment and continue to contribute to the development of human industry...

Unconsciously, the news just now had already ended, and the content on TV became a daily newsletter to fill time.

Chang Haonan also gradually came out of his thoughts.

After all, even with his ability, it is impossible for one person to put all the elements of the entire industrial chain into his mind.

"Perhaps we should organize a separate organization to summarize these fragile but valuable enterprises, and then track their operations regularly?"

An idea gradually formed in Chang Haonan's mind.

With the resources he can allocate now, it is naturally not difficult to set up a department that does not take up much staff, but the person in charge needs some consideration.

After all, this job requires a relatively reliable and comprehensive understanding of various industries, and the candidates who meet the requirements are unlikely to be interested in such a tedious but not difficult task...

"By the way..."

After the quiet atmosphere lasted for a long time, Yao Mengna broke the silence first:

"You took such a long vacation twice in a year... It won't affect your work, right?"

In fact, she was initially worried about whether she could keep up with the work pace when she returned to her post in a few months.

But then I thought about it, marriage leave and paternity leave are taken by two people together. Even though the paternity leave is far less long than maternity leave, it seems that the importance of my husband is not comparable to that of me...

So he immediately forgot about his own affairs and started worrying about Chang Haonan.

The latter tilted his head helplessly and glanced at his wife who was leaning on his shoulder.

Delaying work is of course impossible.

It's impossible in this life.

In fact, even if he takes one more month of paternity leave, Huairou Science City will most likely not be able to catch up with his previous theoretical breakthrough in the wide-speed waverider design method.

As for the news itself just now...

Although Chang Haonan cannot predict the results of this first flight test two years in advance, based on the analysis of AIAA public information, the United States has already embarked on a wrong path in the field of hypersonic research.

Even if they get the upper hand this time, it can only be considered a lucky success, and it is impossible to maintain long-term competition with China.

What's more, in addition to weapons applications, he is even laying out a broader development route for hypersonic technology...

However, Chang Haonan did not say this.

Not just for confidentiality reasons.

Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\\\\Nine\\\\\\Book\\\\\\!)

But the doctor said that Yao Mengna's reaction was normal due to hormonal reactions during pregnancy. She was neither really worried about anything nor simply losing her temper or making trouble unreasonably.

So reasoning is useless.

The key is to shift your focus and maintain a good mood.

"I suddenly had a feeling..."

He answered the question and said:

"Have Americans been paying attention to the love life of the two of us?"

"Clam?"

Sure enough, this innocent and violent comment attracted curious glances from those nearby.

Any delay in work has long been forgotten.

Chang Haonan's intention was just to make fun, but when he said this, he also laughed out loud:

"Think about it, when we got married last year, we were doing business at home while watching the U.S. Navy's live broadcast of intercepting satellites. As a result, under the attention of the whole world, a piece of space debris almost knocked down the International Space Station... …”

Hearing this, Yao Mengna recalled the slightly crazy time after her wedding. Her pretty face turned red and she stretched out her small fist to hit Chang Haonan's chest:

"What about doing business..."

Chang Haonan had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed the fist on his chest, put it in his hand and kneaded it gently, and continued to joke:

"Now that the baby is about to be born, they are going to conduct a hypersonic flight test again, and they have specially moved it to the first half of this year... Why does it seem that every time the two of us enter a critical stage, the Americans will make some noise to add to the fun... "

After hearing this, Yao Mengna rolled her eyes.

I wanted to say that Chang Haonan's ideas were unreasonable, but after all, with a big belly, it was inevitable to think about the child in everything.

Therefore, all the words that were originally complained about came to his lips, but they were swallowed back. Then he lowered his head and began to analyze seriously:

"The news just now said that the test was before May, so the birth and full moon should not be in time, but I really can't say for a hundred days..."

According to the customs in Chang Haonan's hometown, a hundred days after the birth of a baby means a long life. It is a more solemn day than the full moon and the first birthday. Some families will even hold banquets to entertain relatives and friends for this purpose.

Yao Mengna naturally followed the local customs.

Seeing the professor's wife with a doctorate now counting on her fingers, Chang Haonan couldn't laugh or cry for a while, but he was happy to let Yao Mengna pay more attention to such fun, so he stretched out his hand and touched the other party's abdomen, half jokingly Continued:

"If it really catches up, it will be like Americans spending hundreds of millions of dollars to set off fireworks for their children..."

Yao Mengna pouted:

"No...have you already acquiesced that they are going to fail?"

Chang Haonan shook his head solemnly:

"With missile testing, you either blow up the target or you blow up yourself. In short, you have to blow up something..."
