Chapter 364: Luxurious Method to Increase Proficiency
"Great, I'll leave this to you."
In the office, after signing the relevant transfer agreement with Umbrella, a copper mine owner also extended his hand to the representative and shook hands.
Now Umbrella has gained an upper hand in Mexico. It has the military force, the power, and the influence among the people. Its shortcomings in the political arena have also been almost made up, and the subsequent processing speed will be much faster than before.
On the other side, Umbrella was still killing indiscriminately, and the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkey was quite obvious.
If Umbrella only adopts this kind of deterrence, it will definitely not be able to go smoothly forever, and it will easily leave many hidden dangers.
The key is that they are willing to pay!
And even at this point, they are still willing to acquire it at a premium.
It is actually very obvious how to choose.
If Umbrella were to acquire silver mines now, the acquisition of this potential mineral would certainly be fraught with difficulties.
But Umbrella had already controlled the silver mine before the official announcement, and now it is acquiring other minerals, which is relatively much simpler.
As an agreement has been maintained with the Mexican authorities and there has been no interference, the speed of acquisitions on the purely commercial side is also quite astonishing.
On one side is a big stick, and on the other side is the high cost of premium acquisition. How to choose?
To be honest, many bosses don't have so many psychological expectations. They think that Umbrella is trying to use its force to overwhelm them. But when they look back, they find that the money offered is even higher. They will even agree to it even if there is no threat of killing people around them. So they will naturally agree readily.
Good, exquisite!
Nowadays, except for a few stubborn people or those who are unwilling to sell their ancestral properties, water, agriculture, mineral and other resources have been integrated in Mo.
As for the few that really didn't want to sell, Umbrella didn't take any special measures. It just kept most of them under control, and if they didn't want to sell, then let them not sell.
At the same time, the impact on many members of the Mexican government has gradually deepened.
Many of the congressmen represent some related interests. After Umbrella took over, they were replaced and continued to support them as before.
In this case, they certainly hope to have a good relationship with this new financial backer!
Moreover, Umbrella is building and constructing so many factories at the same time, spending a huge amount of money.
The positive impacts on employment, taxation, public security, infrastructure and many other aspects have also earned it an extremely good reputation among the people.
Normally, these oligarch-level giants usually have very strong exploitative capabilities when reaping profits.
But Umbrella is different!
Umbrella is a true high-tech company, and the technology it holds makes it able to earn huge profits.
Culture medium, medicines, chips, artificial intelligence, holographic bracelets, etc., which one of them is not making a fortune?
There is no need to make money from any dishonorable means.
Because of the sanctions imposed by the United States, Umbrella can be said to have saved a large amount of cash flow. Now it is in a mode of directly spending money, making the Mexican authorities dizzy.
Under the subtle influence of the past two years, the Mexican people have also had a strong recognition of Umbrella.
In addition, the water supply problem has been actually solved, public security has been significantly improved, and all aspects have begun to have a more profound impact.
Under such circumstances, if the Mexican authorities were suddenly under external pressure to deal with Umbrella, they would find that dealing with Umbrella is like dealing with themselves!
…
In a heavy industrial laboratory in Mexico, Wang Yi looked at the first turbofan engine that had completed mechanical assembly in front of him and sighed. It was still a little short of perfection.
Even if I cheat, if this thing wants to reach the standard of automatic mechanical production, it will probably be only slightly better than the F110 at most.
Aircraft engines can be said to be the jewel in the crown of the world's industry. They are among the most advanced in terms of difficulty and craftsmanship.
It’s not something that can be quickly assembled just by having enough machine tools.
The design ideas, material technology and processing technology all have extremely high requirements!
Even the gas turbines used in today's main battleships are by-products of aircraft engine research and development.
This is also the direction the rabbit has been chasing.
The fan blade material requirements of a turbofan engine are extremely high, and they need to maintain considerable strength in high-temperature environments. It can be said that every 100-degree increase in high-temperature resistance can increase thrust by 20%.
In the past, people have always cited the example that the gap between domestic aviation engines and that between China and the United States is so many years. In fact, this is largely due to the materials. With an average annual improvement of 10 degrees, the gap between domestic and American aviation engines is about 200 degrees, so there is a gap of 200 years.
After all, the foundation of materials science cannot be mastered overnight.
Although domestic aviation engines are catching up vigorously and their thrust has increased rapidly, their service life will be obviously much lower due to the materials used.
But even so, it is still unbelievable in the eyes of many people abroad.
At present, the first and second place in aviation engines are definitely the Big Piaoliang and the Big Bear, and the production methods adopted by the two are also different.
In order to maximize the turbofan power and bring out the limits of the material, it is necessary to apply force evenly to ensure that each blade is close to its own limit. The approach adopted by Da Piaoliang is to use the advantages of its own industrial machine tools to directly force out the entire material, and the turbofan is a whole.
However, Mao Xiong's machine tools are not that powerful, so they adopt the "bulk" assembly method, relying on the power of mathematics to ensure that the bulk goods can be evenly distributed on each piece.
As for Wang Yi, although he has tinkered with a lot of machine tools, the machine tools themselves need to be debugged and used. Even with the skeleton man possessed by the grass-headed god, under the control of Lin Shiqin, there is still a very obvious gap in the overall 'proficiency' and 'debugging'.
It can only be said that this turbofan engine was barely put together, and it still has major defects and shortcomings.
The technology is much worse than what Rabbit can produce now. If it is forced out for normal use by conventional means, the power, thrust and even service life will be quite bad.
The reason why we use rabbits for comparison is that there are only a few countries that can manufacture aircraft engines.
but……
Wang Yi can cheat with materials!
Relying on huge improvements in material strength, high temperature resistance, etc., all assembly defects and processing proficiency are suppressed.
Typical of using force to overwhelm others!
Therefore, it has exceeded the parameters of the beautiful classic engine F110, and its service life is much longer.
The material is burn-resistant and tough, there is nothing we can do about it!
Currently, the internal combustion chamber temperature of aircraft engines is usually as high as 2000 degrees, and the temperature of turbofans is 1500 degrees, but the outside should not be hot to the touch.
The blades also need to be strong enough to withstand temperatures of 1500 degrees!
It can be said that in order to reach this limit, all kinds of methods were used, the craftsmanship was constantly improved, and the material proportions were adjusted again and again.
However, since we can easily produce blades that can run very fast under high temperatures of 3000 degrees, the craftsmanship is secondary.
Now it just barely exceeds the parameters of F110, which is a bit embarrassing. It is totally unworthy of the material and a waste of natural resources...
It can be said that there is still great potential and the future is promising.
The reason why we started tinkering with this is not because we want to produce a top-level fighter jet right now. After all, even with the combination of quantum + supercomputing modes, pure data simulation can be performed and the design can be completed without building a wind tunnel, but overall it still takes more time.
The main reason why we force aircraft engines to run in is to gain experience!
An aircraft engine can be said to require the use of all aspects of the industry and cannot have any shortcomings. In this case, it is undoubtedly the best training material.
In other places, we still need skilled workers and skilled engineers.
But now that the Grass-Headed God is almost free, the skilled workers are ordinary skeletons controlled by Lin Shiqin, and the skilled engineers are skeletons possessed by the Grass-Headed God. All are ready!
In other words, as long as you continue to feed Lin Shiqin with experience, her proficiency will increase rapidly.
Once the technology of aviation engines is mature, what remains is a high-level plan. By then, detonation engines, ship gas engines, rocket engines, and planetary engines can all be developed step by step.
Moreover, Wang Yi will definitely develop a proprietary controlled nuclear fusion core on the offshore city, and the first-generation prototype used to absorb experience is almost completed.
How to utilize this energy and how to install corresponding propulsion on the offshore city at that time will require a large amount of data support for calculations in all aspects.
At present, an aircraft engine that is small and exquisite in size is undoubtedly the best item for gaining experience.
Everything will be easy once Lin Shiqin reaches a certain level of proficiency.
Although, it seems a bit extravagant...
"How's the connection to the reinforcement going?"
After reading the overview of the engine and looking at the parameters simulated by Lin Shiqin, Wang Yi also asked her questions.
A maritime city cannot be built by simply assembling it together. The steel strength of civilian materials is already known, so must be reinforced.
The method of reinforcement is naturally magic patterns. Relevant slots are left when the hull is built. When the time comes, as long as the core three-dimensional magic pattern device is pressed on, and then the silver-copper alloy wires are connected, the overall reinforcement can be completed!
Since the shipbuilding there is synchronized, the materials needed for manufacturing will certainly not stop, to ensure that they can be used as soon as possible.
"It's ready. Cheng Xue and Mao Li Longyi have completed the preliminary blessing and are waiting for the boss to make the final corrections."
"Well, let's go."
Why can civilian ships be built to millions of tons, but beautiful aircraft carriers are only a hundred thousand tons?
That is, the beautiful aircraft carrier also has to consider many wartime factors!
This thing weighing 100,000 tons can run at a speed of about 60 kilometers per hour.
In addition, it has always been said that aircraft carriers are large coffins at sea, but in fact, to a certain extent this is the theory of the uselessness of aircraft carriers made up by Britain itself. Is it really useless that they build so many?
Taking the beautiful aircraft carrier as an analogy, it has extremely strong resistance to close-range tactical nuclear explosions.
Even if conventional weapons bypass the interception of the knife-wielding guards outside, they will only be effective if they hit the key parts of the aircraft carrier itself.
At that time, the Great Piaoliang used a retired aircraft carrier for live-fire exercises. It lasted for 25 days before sinking. The armor at the waterline could withstand a torpedo with a load of 1,000 kg, while a conventional torpedo is 500 kg. After it was penetrated, there was a watertight compartment for isolation.
It is no longer the same as the combat configuration during World War II!
Even the aircraft carriers during World War II were tested for resistance to nuclear bombs. A tactical nuclear bomb with a yield of 23,000 tons was detonated at an altitude of 158 meters, but failed to sink a nearby light aircraft carrier!
Now, after so many years of development, it is a mystery to what extent the defense has been achieved.
Wang Yi's requirements were not high. He only wanted this nearly 20 million ton offshore city to be able to run at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour...
