Chapter 61 Chapter 14 Prologue of Troubled Times and New Energy

Jiang Ning is still in her second year of high school this year, but this does not affect her talent. She is even more malleable now than five years later. So although Li Xin didn't know why Chu Fei wanted her to sign Jiang Ning at the beginning, after Jiang Ning finally spoke up for everyone with the encouragement of Chu Fei, no one had any objections to this. Even Lu Jingjing couldn't help but look at her with extremely jealous eyes... because this is an innate talent, no matter how she chased her the day after tomorrow!

Of course, Jiang Ning herself was also surprised, because although she sang well, her family seemed to have always opposed her walking path, so she rarely showed her singing skills outside. However, she didn't expect that Chu Fei knew her clearly. Not only did she arrange for her to sign a contract with Li Xin's company, but she also planned to interfere in all her next arrangements... Is this planning to let her take the singer path in the future? So Jiang Ning was a little hesitant, because if she really signed the contract, the resistance from her family would not be small, but Chu Fei was not surprised by this matter, so he told her that he would take care of any problems in the future!

He is carrying it?

How many things does Chu Fei still have to bear? Who knows, this time, in order to let his women meet him in advance and to miss them, Chu Fei took a lot of debts, so that he has no more private time since Christmas, and he has no chance to go to school to wander...

This is because the country has roughly completed the construction of the underground base of Qingcheng Manufacturing Group. Next is the construction of the most important specific project... This underground base is naturally built to develop and produce something, so what production line it needs? What kind of manpower is needed? What kind of experts are needed? What kind of resource allocation is needed. These things are definitely not just talk about, because everyone knows now that Chu Fei is the main body of all this. Only he knows what he wants. He also needs to do it himself to improve this chain...

What? Do you think that the country has invested a lot of money and manpower and material resources to produce things that can be produced elsewhere? Just kidding! And if Chu Fei had not proposed a new plan in advance, how could the Chinese Air Force not continue to customize Qingcheng engines in Qingcheng Manufacturing Group? Do you think that more than a dozen engines are enough to be equipped with the Chinese Air Force? This is obviously impossible. The reason why the Chinese Air Force has not annoyed Chu Fei for more than half a year is that Chu Fei is conducting research on a new aircraft carrier, and on the other hand, because Chu Fei proposed a brand new fighter model earlier...

What kind of new fighter?

Let’s explain it this way. Because of the relationship between fuel and load-bearing, today’s fighter jets generally have separate functions. For example, the role of reconnaissance aircraft is to reconnaissance, and the task of fighter jets is to drive out and resolve air conflicts. Although they can be equipped with ground-to-ground missiles, their power is definitely far less than that of bombers. The purpose of bombers is to drop bombs from long-range and their air-to-air capabilities are very average. Command aircraft, etc., are all responsible for their functions and are responsible.

Of course, this is not bad. It is just that due to energy restrictions, basically only a few bombers can fly far away to perform missions, while most fighter jets need to rely on the aircraft carrier platform to deliver them. Once the weapons and ammunition on their bodies are used up, they must return as soon as possible, and their continuous combat capabilities are very low.

There is no doubt that this is the development path that Europe and the United States have explored with experience and blood and tears after experiencing two world wars. So if China keeps following their direction, then it will always be in catching up. When will it be possible to talk about transcendence? Besides, if you follow other people's old path, they will naturally know you well. Once there is a war, the result is really unpredictable. So why do Chinese leaders never dare to be tough? Is it really to keep a low profile? After all, it is not that they are inferior to others in their strength!

So Chu Fei simply took advantage of the technology of Gardari and their military model to propose a new direction of development of fighter jets, which was completely different from another civilized science and technology tree in the direction of Europe and the United States. This plan was discussed by the expert group for nearly half a year, but many people still held skeptical attitudes, so it has not been implemented yet. However, what happened recently had to be considered seriously...

The United States has sent troops!

Because just passed Christmas, a series of suicide terrorist attacks occurred in the United States. According to official statements, this was launched by Al Qaeda. On the morning of Christmas, about Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four civil aircraft. The hijackers deliberately caused two of the planes to crash into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York, killing everyone on the plane and many people in the buildings. Both buildings collapsed within two hours and caused the destruction or damage of other nearby buildings. In addition, the hijackers also forced the third plane to crash into the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. The fourth plane flew to Washington, DC, and some passengers and crew tried to regain control of the plane. In the end, the fourth plane crashed near Shanksville, rural Sommerset County, Pennsylvania, and no one survived the four planes.

That's right, this is the 11 events that Chu Fei is familiar with in history, but it strangely happened to Christmas a year ago... What does this mean?

After statistics, Americans found that a total of 4 people, including hijackers, died in the attack, and the vast majority of the casualties were civilians, including citizens of 8 different countries. In addition, according to the coroner, at least one person died of respiratory diseases due to exposure to smoke and dust when the World Trade Center collapsed. So in response to the attack, the US Congress quickly launched a "war on terrorism" to invade Afghanistan to eliminate the Taliban hiding al-Qaeda terrorists, and passed the US Patriot Act!

After Christmas, US President George Bush sent a final spy to the Taliban government, asking them to hand over the top al-Qaeda members to the United States and release all imprisoned foreigners. In addition, foreign journalists, diplomats, and support personnel in Afghanistan must be protected, and American personnel must be allowed to check all training camps to confirm that they were all closed. However, the Taliban government refused to talk to the United States and said that dialogue with non-Muslim leaders was an insult to them.

Because of this, the United States officially formed a coalition with Britain on New Year's Day in Afghanistan and entered Afghanistan to contact the local Northern Alliance. The two sides later reached an agreement to cooperate to overthrow the Taliban regime. The United States also launched an air strike on the Taliban that night, attacking multiple strongholds of the Taliban and al-Qaeda. The United States said that the attack on the Taliban was to retaliate against the Taliban for not agreeing to the United States' request to hand over the terrorist incident. On the same day, the Taliban immediately criticized the United States for declaring war on the Islamic world, and the Afghan war officially began!

After all, the United States is the most powerful country in the world. The methods it demonstrated in this war also made Chinese leaders worried. After all, can China really compete with such a strong United States?

Facing the concerns of the Chinese government, Chu Fei was a little amused because he remembered it very clearly that the Afghan War was definitely a huge quagmire. After the United States entered, it was impossible to advance or retreat. After investing huge capital, it finally gained a small amount, and even began to become a symbol of the beginning of weakening of the United States' national strength... But no matter what, the Afghan War was a huge opportunity, because the United States had no spare energy to stare at China at this time, so this was the best opportunity for China to take the opportunity to develop!

It was this point that ultimately prompted the Chinese government to make up its mind, so Chu Fei began to get busy. The things he needed began to obtain resources nationwide on a large scale, and all the things were quickly transported to Wuhan. Even if there was no domestic situation, some people would try their best to obtain them from abroad, such as high-precision machine tools. For this reason, China did not hesitate to reach some secret conditions with Russia. In short, in the next month, Qingcheng Manufacturing Group was rapidly mature and formed...

What exactly is Chu Fei going to do?

First of all, of course, is energy. Since we want to get rid of the development model of Europe and the United States, we must use a brand new energy model. Otherwise, as long as the energy is controlled by Europe and the United States, you will always be pinched... Whether it is oil, natural gas, or even rare nuclear energy, China actually does not have too much.

So what exactly is the new energy that Chu Fei is talking about? It’s very simple. To put it bluntly, it is light energy, or solar energy...

Maybe many people think it is strange. Didn’t solar energy have been developed long ago? And we have used it long ago! Of course, almost every household has solar water heater now, and there are even many solar power stations, but is this the best use of solar energy? Of course not. It can even be said to be the lowest utilization of solar energy. Just like when oil was first developed, it was only regarded as asphalt...

In the technology of Gadari, the "solar" energy has even become the direct source of energy for all spacecraft. Therefore, as long as they are in the universe and where there are stars nearby, their spacecraft will basically never lack power, especially large spacecraft. This is because they have their own way of collecting and utilizing energy, which is many times higher than that on earth!!
