Chapter 645 Something Went Wrong
The efficiency of the army is indeed high.
The phone call was made in the morning, and the items were delivered to the Institute for Advanced Study by truck in the afternoon.
The two engineers followed the car to Jinling, just staring at the three containers, but couldn't get a chance to go up and touch them. Yang Zhongquan was so angry that his blood pressure soared, staring at Lu Zhou, he wanted to peel his skin.
Finally, he couldn't help spraying.
"It's useless to build two high-precision machine tools in a broken laboratory. Do you want to build a collider yourself?"
Lu Zhou also spoke back unceremoniously.
"Then you need two high-precision machine tools for a broken machine repair factory, and it's useless. Did you take them back and dismantle them to make specimens?"
Hearing these words, Yang Zhongquan almost vomited blood out of breath.
Wang Peng, who was watching from the side, was also a little dumbfounded. He wanted to persuade Lu Zhou but didn't know how to speak, so he simply stopped talking.
In the afternoon, the leader of the Bureau of Science and Industry finally ran over.
As soon as a black car stopped at the door, Director Li quickly got out of the car and pulled Lu Zhou to the lounge next to him to work alone.
"Professor Lu, that batch of equipment is really important to us."
Lu Zhou smiled and asked, "Airspace is not important?"
"No, I didn't mean that. The aerospace industry is related to the future of the descendants of China. From a long-term perspective, it is of course important, and it is very important! In addition, you are the chief designer of the moon landing project. I understand your current mood very well. !"
Lu Zhou took a sip of his coffee and didn't speak, just listening to him continue.
After taking a sip of tea to moisturize his throat, Director Li continued in a sincere tone, "But you also know that in addition to long-term interests, we also have to consider some practical issues. Our industry started too late, and Japan and Germany There is a gap of at least 15 years between enterprises. Especially in key areas related to national defense security such as engines and submarines, there is still a big gap between us and Western countries.”
Domestic machine tools also have the advantages of domestic machine tools, such as relatively low cost, which almost makes foreign machine tool companies unprofitable in the low-end market. However, in the field of high-end machine tools, whether in terms of machining accuracy or failure rate, it is difficult for domestic machine tools to compete with those old industrial giants in the international market.
However, Huaguo wanted to develop the manufacturing industry, but it couldn't do without it.
For example, some domestic manufacturing companies that require high processing precision of parts usually choose imported machine tools, buy five-axis machine tools, and buy nano-precision CNC systems. But when you go to buy it from other people, they are uncles, not only you have to pay a lot of money, but also you have to look at their face, especially the widely criticized "end user access right", which makes some units involved in confidential technology dare not use imported machine tools at all.
Therefore, in this negotiation on controllable fusion, these cutting-edge industrial technologies were also placed on the negotiating table by Hua Guo.
After listening to Director Li's words, Lu Zhou nodded in understanding.
He is not a person who doesn't like oil and salt, but he is very unhappy with the attitude of those two people.
Talk well, what can't you talk about?
Is he the kind of unreasonable person?
Seeing that Lu Zhou's expression softened, Director Li continued in a soliciting tone.
"I know it's not easy for you to buy these two machine tools back, but I still hope you can give us one. Of course, we can't take yours for nothing. How much did you get back? You can report Count it to me, and we will triple the price. If you have any other requirements, you can also ask them."
Lu Zhou smiled and said.
"Three times the price is unnecessary, and I didn't intend to sell it for money when I bought it back."
Director Li continued: "Then do you think there is any policy that needs our help?"
Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou pondered for a while, then suddenly rolled his eyes and said.
"It's a bit far from Jinling to several launch bases in China. When the space shuttle is built, the transportation may be a bit troublesome."
Director Li was sweating profusely on his forehead, and said boldly.
"You don't mean to..."
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "It would be nice if the launch base could be closer."
Director Li said with a headache: "This is impossible. Even if our side agrees, the local government will not agree. This thing involves not only confidentiality issues, but also the surrounding geological environment, as well as weather, environmental protection, safety, etc. It’s not something that can be decided casually.”
Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said: "You misunderstood, what I said is not a launch base, not according to the standards of those launch bases in Jiuquan and Xichang. I only need a small-scale launch base for launching space shuttles. "
There are still many differences between space shuttles and rockets, especially Lu Zhou intends to return the Hall thruster on Wreckage 3, which is much more environmentally friendly than ordinary chemical rockets.
Chief Li shook his head and said, "That's not okay either!"
Lu Zhou patted his thigh, ready to get up.
"That's fine. We'll talk about the equipment another day. I'll write to ask about the launch base."
When he heard that Lu Zhou was going to write a letter, Director Li quit immediately, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Let's forget about writing a letter, and don't bother the people above this trivial matter."
Lu Zhou said seriously: "Aerospace engineering is related to national strategy, how can it be a trivial matter?"
Director Li: "..."
There was silence for about half a minute.
Director Li sighed and said, "I can't immediately agree to your request. To be honest, it's quite difficult for me. But I will try my best to find a way for you and coordinate with relevant departments to help you solve the problem."
When he said this, Director Li also thought about it in his heart.
If it is just to launch a space shuttle, it does not involve the launch of that kind of high-power rocket, and a small launch base is not impossible. As long as it is built far away from the urban area and ensures that the launch channel does not pass through densely populated areas, it is actually not a big problem.
After all, Jinling is not Shanghai, and there are still many places to choose if you go east.
If it is not used to launch rockets as Lu Zhou said, such a small-scale launch site is really not a big problem.
Seeing that Director Li didn't directly refuse, Lu Zhou knew that there was probably something to be said about it, so he smiled and said.
"Then leave it to Director Li."
Director Li waved his hands and said politely: "You're welcome, serving you scientific researchers is also what we should do."
Lu Zhou: "By the way, there is one more thing."
Director Li: "What's the matter?"
Lu Zhou: "Don't let several companies come to my place to ask for the equipment. Wait for a while and check it out. You can just drag one away."
Director Li thought about it for a while, and immediately understood what Lu Zhou meant, so he said with a smile.
"That's easy to say."
Seeing Director Li agreeing, Lu Zhou nodded.
He is a math guy, and he really doesn't want to deal with the leaders of those companies, and he doesn't want to offend people everywhere. Now Shen Ji heard the wind, and after another two days, Qi Zhong and Ji Yi all heard the wind, and ran over to ask for equipment, which would give him a headache.
Simply hand over the equipment to the Science and Industry Bureau and let them go to the Science and Industry Bureau.
Seeing Lu Zhou and Director Li walking in from the side door talking and laughing, Yang Zhongquan, who was standing in the warehouse of the research institute, guessed that the two had probably reached a consensus, so he stood there without saying a word or looking at Lu Zhou. .
Obviously, he still broods over those things before.
Walking to Yang Zhongquan's side, Director Li smiled and spoke in a soothing tone.
"Let your engineers check the two devices first."
Yang Zhongquan nodded and greeted the two engineers standing beside him.
Seeing the chief engineer in the factory nodding, the two engineers immediately excitedly walked towards the two five-axis linkage machine tools placed in the middle of the warehouse, and carefully fiddled with the two machine tools like stroking their dream lover.
Lu Zhou was bored waiting beside him, so he took out his mobile phone and continued to read the documents he hadn't finished reading before.
Yang Zhongquan, who was standing beside him, squinted his eyes at the things on the screen of his mobile phone, and immediately looked away with a headache.
About five minutes passed.
The engineer who was inspecting the equipment suddenly changed his face.
"There is a problem with this batch of equipment."
Upon hearing this, Chief Li's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked.
"What's the problem?"
Looking over with a pale face, the engineer said in a difficult tone.
"The supporting CNC system...has not been installed yet."
