Chapter 130 I leave it to you!
After Liu Huaqing specifically emphasized that "Chen Nian should be taken seriously," other members of the entire working group acted quickly and called Chen Nian one after another, inviting him to inspect the Deep Blue 16 project site.
When Chen Nian received the call, his first reaction was surprise, then shock and anxiety.
You want to know, who is Liu Huaqing?
Known as the father of the Chinese Navy, he has led more than 70 changes in the modernization of the navy. In the timeline of Chen Nian's previous life, when there was no one like him, Liu Huaqing single-handedly pushed the Chinese Navy to the forefront.
Dark blue.
He didn't have a system, but he played a greater role than having a system.
The world remembers him mainly for two things.
The first thing is that he said, "If China does not develop aircraft carriers, I will not die in peace."
The second thing was that he put aside the self-esteem and pride of an admiral, a top decision-maker of the Republic, and stood humbly on the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier, stepping over the shoulders of the ordinary sailors on duty to see what was going on.
The internal structure of a helicopter that claims "no contact with precision equipment"!
It can be said that he dedicated his life to this country and the navy.
If Chen Nian knew that at the age of 88, he was still holding on to his frail body to attend the meeting of the Deep Blue 16 project and was embarrassed by a gas turbine problem, sigh, I am afraid that he would have already rushed to the airport and taken the earliest flight.
Arrived at the scene.
What's more, he specifically said his own name.
——
Being remembered by Liu Huaqing cannot but be said to be one of the highest invisible honors in this country.
Therefore, after confirming his schedule, he did not hesitate and directly booked a special flight with Chen Guo and flew to Dalian that afternoon.
Outside the headquarters of the Deep Blue 16 project near the Dalian Shipyard, Chen Nian saw an old man whose mental state was obviously in poor condition.
The other person seemed to have just gotten up and his hair was a little messy, but he didn't take it seriously. As soon as he saw Chen Nian walking in, he immediately stepped forward and held his hand.
"Chen Nian, Chen Nian, you just came? I have been looking forward to you for a long time!"
Chen Nian's eyes were slightly sore and he quickly answered:
"Mr. Liu, I'm late - over at the 611 Institute, I helped with the J-20 matter, and it was delayed."
"No delay, no delay. I also know that you are busy, so I didn't call you before."
"You have to build aircraft and missiles, and now you are asked to build aircraft carriers. You are too busy."
"It's still summer vacation. I originally wanted you to have a good rest, but I mentioned it yesterday and they called you."
"I just woke up, and I heard that you came over. You washed your face and didn't comb your hair. Don't say I'm negligent!"
Liu Huaqing spoke with a heavy accent, but Chen Nian could tell. He tried his best to enunciate clearly, for fear that Chen Nian wouldn't understand.
The people around him had already brought a stool, and Chen Nian quickly asked him to sit down. After the latter sat down, he took a few deep breaths before continuing:
"You probably don't recognize me yet, right? I do recognize you."
Chen Nian smiled and replied:
"Mr. Liu, if I didn't know you, my life would have been in vain all these years."
"But you know me, so I'm flattered."
"Hey! Don't use such official talk at such a young age! How can I not know you? Who among those engaged in the military industry today hasn't heard something about you?"
"The waves behind you in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. You're a very good boy!"
Seeing Liu Huaqing's sincere look, Chen Nian stopped being polite and replied:
"I just made some small contributions, but they are far behind compared to you."
"But I will definitely surpass you in the future!"
Hearing this, Liu Huaqing burst out laughing.
He is indeed happy.
For an old man like him who has reached his twilight years, what is his biggest worry?
In a word, there is no successor!
It’s not that your family property or resources have no successors, but that your career has no successors!
How much effort and time he spent to finally develop the navy to this level, but in fact, the road to go is still extremely long, even so long that he can't even see the end.
However, compared with such a long life, his life is so short, so short that he counts the minutes every day.
Although he is no longer involved in specific work, he is always concerned about the latest developments.
During the recent period, he clearly felt that the development of the navy had entered a bottleneck period of slow progress.
Therefore, he is more anxious than anyone else.
He was afraid that after he left, no one would continue to fight for this road "toward the deep blue" like him.
And now, Chen Nian appears.
And he even said in front of me that he would surpass himself!
This is the greatest comfort to him.
After laughing for a while, Liu Huaqing once again held Chen Nian's hand tightly, his expression slowly becoming serious.
"You must have such ambition!"
"One generation is stronger than the other, only then can our navy have hope."
"but."
Liu Huaqing changed the subject and asked:
"You know this is the Deep Blue 16 project, but do you know what we want you to do when we call you here?"
Chen Nian nodded and replied solemnly:
"Know."
"Aircraft diversion."
Liu Huaqing's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise:
"How did you guess that?"
Chen Nian scratched his head in embarrassment and replied:
"When I first came here, I saw Mr. Ma Weiming."
"Hahahaha. Smart! I didn't expect you to know that kid."
"That's right, I asked you to come here this time because of the F119 engine you made before."
"You are familiar with that engine because you designed it after all."
"So, we want you to help us see if we can embark on an aeroderivative gas turbine project, build our own high-power gas turbine, and use this gas turbine on our own aircraft carrier!"
Chen Nian frowned slightly and did not answer immediately.
Liu Huaqing immediately noticed his expression and asked:
"Is it difficult?"
Chen Nian shook his head and replied:
"It's not that it's difficult, I just think that F119 is technically not suitable for use in gas turbines - the precision is too high, the robustness is relatively poor, and it's difficult to modify."
"I think that if we want to do it, it is better to further develop high-power gas turbines based on UGT-25000!"
"It's too difficult."
Liu Huaqing shook his head and sighed.
"We need at least a gas turbine with a power of more than 50 megawatts, but now the power of UGT-25000 is only 28 megawatts. There is a big gap, and there are many difficulties in materials, processes and design involved."
"To achieve a breakthrough, I'm afraid it will take at least 10 years, or even years."
"Our aircraft carrier can't wait that long, and neither can I."
I can't wait that long either.
Liu Huaqing did not say this sentence, but Chen Nian knew it well.
Therefore, he no longer talked about it, but said directly:
"I'll take care of it."
"Give me two months and I will output a drawing of a new gas turbine with a power of 110 megawatts."
"You solve it?? 110 megawatts of power??"
Liu Huaqing's eyes widened in surprise.
His first reaction was that he couldn't believe it, but then he remembered the legends about Chen Nian.
Then, the shocked look on his face immediately turned into a smile.
He stood up, tried to stand up straight, then gently patted Chen Nian's shoulder and said in a relaxed tone:
"Then... leave it to you!"
On the weekend, I accidentally got up late, so I updated one chapter at noon. To compensate, there are still 4 chapters in the evening, and there are 5 chapters in total today.
Chapter completed!
