Chapter 377: Concentrate your strength for the aviation development battle
Forty minutes later, Chang Haonan arrived at Ding Gaoheng's office.
Somewhat beyond his expectation, in addition to the latter himself, Liang Zhuoping, chairman of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, was also there.
“Director Ding, Mr. Liang.”
Chang Haonan only met him once at the interview before participating in the August 3rd Project last year, but no matter what, he must still know the head of his own aviation industry.
But it makes sense if you think about it carefully. After all, with his status, Ding Gaoheng cannot personally host a specific technical meeting.
And Chang Haonan doesn't have that much energy to do administrative work.
So when the conference is actually held, no matter where it is, Liang Zhuoping will definitely be responsible for the actual preparation work.
“Xiao Chang, sit down wherever you want.”
Ding Gaoheng is looking through a report in his hand. Judging from the cover, it seems to be about the aerospace engine industry.
But Liang Zhuoping actually stood up and shook hands with Chang Haonan.
“Comrade Haonan, long time no see.”
On only the second meeting, the title has already changed.
Although it sounds like there is not much difference, the meaning behind it is completely different.
Liang Zhuoping can no longer regard Chang Haonan as a simple junior or subordinate.
In fact, the former is also suffering in his heart at this time and cannot express it.
You must know that when Chang Haonan was asked to participate in the August 3rd Project, he had contributed.
But after all, I am not a professional technician, so I did not pay special attention to it later.
After all, it was just in the beginning, and the frequency of the other party's name in the report on the August 3rd Project was not very high.
As a result, by the time we realized something was wrong at the beginning of this year and finally reacted, it was already too late to try our best.
Who would have thought that in only about half a year, people would directly build connections with Ding Gaoheng?
So Liang Zhuoping felt a little embarrassed.
In the field of scientific research, he is not an academician, nor is he even a leader such as a chief model engineer.
· Administratively, although he is the chairman of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, the other party is not an employee of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China. Moreover, the relationship between him and Director Ding is unusual. It is not certain who can dominate whom.
As for personal relationships, he is not like Yan Zhongcheng and Yang Fenghao, who took Chang Haonan with him when he first joined the 83rd Project.
If you don't accompany me through the hard work, who will you be if I become successful?
Liang Zhuoping still has this kind of self-knowledge.
In short, the words "Comrade Xiao Chang" were stuck in my throat for a long time and I couldn't say them out.
Finally, I changed my name.
Chang Haonan didn't care about this.
There is no harm in trying to equalize the status with Liang Zhuoping as much as possible.
It's not that I have any opinion about this person.
Rather, in his plan, in the future, all units responsible for aviation power under the Aviation Industry Corporation of China will be separated to establish a separate China Aviation Engine Group, which will inevitably affect Liang Zhuoping's interests.
Let the other party realize that they cannot fight against the general trend early, but can minimize the possibility of some unpleasantness when the time comes.
“Director Ding, after detailed research and consideration during this period, I have written a report on the development of the aero-engine industry. Please take a look.”
Chang Haonan took out a file bag from his bag and placed it on Ding Gaoheng's desk.
The latter picked up the file bag and paused in shock at the thickness of the contents inside, and then opened it quickly.
“Tell me briefly what you think about the aerospace engine industry conference.”
Chang Haonan's report was mainly about technical feasibility demonstration and summarizing the development of domestic and foreign aerospace industry. It did not directly mention what was just said on the phone.
“I believe that the final shape of the turbojet 14 engine actually achieved the goal set by the high-promotion pre-research project in another form, which was to benchmark the F404 engine and provide technical reserves for my country's self-developed turbofan engine. "
The so-called high-promotion pre-research project was the first large-scale pre-research project organized and managed by system engineering in the aero-engine field launched in my country in 1980. After 15 years, a prototype was finally produced in January 1994.
Although this prototype has achieved the converted flow rate target of 25kg/s on paper, in fact...
In any case, in the project summary, the key part can only be written as “training the talent team”.
This is also one of the many setbacks encountered in the process of promoting the third largest turbofan in my country.
It's just that in today's timeline, the performance of the turbojet 14 is too inconsistent, and even reaches the level of the early F404 in some indicators, which is equivalent to giving this not very successful project a forcible respect.
But in any case, this shows that we in China have figured out the second-generation engine. According to the general scientific research rules, it is time to develop the third-generation engine.
After a pause, Chang Haonan continued:
"It should be considered that the basic conditions for officially launching the 8-stage high-thrust turbofan engine project with a thrust-to-weight ratio are now in place. I hope to concentrate the research power of the entire aviation industry system, with the 606th Institute as the chief engineer unit, combined with the 624th Institute and Liming Institute Factory (Factory 410), jointly took the lead, and other units were responsible for assisting and participating, and they took down this hard nut in a relatively short period of time!”
"So, before the project is officially launched, I hope to bring together comrades from relevant units for a meeting. On the one hand, it is to unify their thoughts and make everyone realize that this is not sacrificing themselves to support brother units, but mutual benefit. Mutually beneficial, on the other hand, it is also a systematic introduction to the technological breakthroughs we have made in the turbojet 14 project in the past year, as well as some other impacts derived from it, which have given us some confidence in the aviation power field. "
After hearing Chang Haonan's statement, Liang Zhuoping, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, was so excited that he opened his mouth several times, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak.
He is actually familiar with the gameplay Chang Haonan mentioned. It's just a R&D competition.
However, starting from the late 1980s, on the one hand, this approach was considered to have "backward" characteristics of the times. On the other hand, it was indeed too risky to sell the iron by selling the pot. Once it failed, the entire industry would be damaged. Therefore, gradually Never mentioned again.
There is no way. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. China's aviation research has suffered too much in this area in the past, and it is still at the stage where overcorrection must be made.
If someone else came up with this kind of plan, I'm afraid it wouldn't be seriously considered.
But the person standing here today is Chang Haonan.
So Ding Gaoheng was flipping through the report in his hand attentively, without showing any inclination.
Although Liang Zhuoping's first reaction was that it was a bit ridiculous, when he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he couldn't say anything against it—
When he came today, he also brought a report.
The content is a summary of the development of China's aviation development industry in the past few years.
You don't know if you don't summarize them, but you will be shocked if you summarize them.
In fact, until this time last year, Turbojet 14 was still on the verge of a dangerous situation.
After a second-class accident occurred during a test flight, Chang Haonan, who had just completed the overall design improvement work of the J-8C at that time, temporarily joined the research team of the 606 Institute.
It was from that time that the entire project quickly came back to life in a completely new way.
The only variable between before and after is Chang Haonan.
There is no doubt that such a number one person who wants to concentrate on developing turbofan 10 must still be treated with caution.
Besides, as the head of China Aviation Industry, Liang Zhuoping himself also hopes to quickly develop aviation power that is in line with the international advanced level.
In the past, I just didn't dare to think about it.
After all, if something goes wrong, he will be the first to take the blame.
Now…
What if it succeeds?
After a long time, Ding Gaoheng, who read the report to the end, finally raised his head.
“Xiao Chang, before making a decision, I only have one question to ask.”
“I have estimated that this engine battle will probably account for about 80% of the funding for the aviation power field in the next few years. Even taking into account the increase in funding in the next two years, it will not be less than 60%.”
“Have you considered the risks of this?”
As the director of the Science and Technology Commission in charge of military scientific research and production, Ding Gaoheng must look at the overall situation. .
The actual situation of Huaxia is that its financial resources are very thin and it really cannot afford any risks, so it must consider the error tolerance rate.
“Thinked about it.”
“That's why I just said that this is not about sacrificing oneself to support brother units, but about mutual benefit.”
Chang Haonan nodded solemnly.
He did not reply with words such as, "There will definitely be no risk as long as I am here."
Although he did feel that nothing would go wrong, that was not the attitude that an engineering technician should have.
Even if you are 100% sure, you must be rigorous and responsible.
“I will divide the Turbofan 10 project into several clear task modules. Each module contains a series of relatively complete technical systems. Each time a small stage is completed, other brother factories participating in the project can obtain systematic knowledge from it. rather than piecemeal knowledge and experience, thereby feeding back their improvement work on existing engine models.”
"Although the total investment of the entire project is definitely huge, in actual operation, it is actually invested in stages. After seeing the results, it is invested in the next stage, rather than a one-time deal. In this way, both the scientific researchers involved in the project and the Our superior units have some confidence in their hearts.”
This is also Chang Haonan's consistent approach when working on projects after his rebirth.
In fact, it is easy to understand if the parent unit is regarded as an investor and the R&D project is regarded as a start-up enterprise.
New companies can lose money, but you have to make investors see hope - your superior units can continue to invest in you, but you have to be able to continuously provide some tangible results.
For most decision-makers who do not have professional technical backgrounds, "the aviation propulsion technology verification plan has achieved initial results, and significant progress has been made in processing, manufacturing and test equipment construction..." This statement is too vague.
But if you directly take out a new engine, even if it is just an improvement and upgrade of the old model, the persuasiveness will be completely different.
Ding Gaoheng naturally understands this.
It's just that for China's aerospace development industry in the past, even phased results were not so easy to achieve...
However, now that Chang Haonan is speaking out with such thoughts, it at least shows that he has carefully considered all possibilities, rather than making a decision made in a rush of passion.
“Zhuoping, I think this meeting will be held in Linyu, how about it?”
