Chapter 163 Space Carrier! Construction Begins!
The more General Zhao Yong thought about it, the more sci-fi it felt!
You have to understand, General Zhao Yong was already over sixty, old enough to be Su Chen's grandfather!
People born in that era, while having witnessed the rise of the Dragon Kingdom, found this speed of development to be within the realm of comprehension.
But with the appearance of Su Chen, he was a bit lost!
First, there was the flying Individual Combat Mecha, then the Space Mecha capable of entering space, and now there was even a 100,000-ton super warship with Stealth ability and destructive power comparable to a nuclear bomb!
This was already beyond his range of understanding!
And now, Su Chen was preparing to build a million-ton warship!
General Zhao Yong couldn't understand: "This thing is so heavy!"
"How could it fly?"
"Even if you put it in the water, unless it's in a deep-sea area, I doubt it would even float!"
Facing General Zhao Yong's repeated questioning, Su Chen knew the old man was interested in the new ship, so he decided to explain it clearly:
"General Zhao Yong, what I am preparing to build is an Aerospace Carrier!"
"You might not know, but an Aerospace Carrier is actually..."
Su Chen was just about to explain the Aerospace Carrier in detail, but before he could elaborate, he was interrupted by General Zhao Yong's surprised voice!
"An Aerospace Carrier?!"
"The thing you want to build is an Aerospace Carrier?"
"No wonder, no wonder!"
Su Chen was slightly taken aback: "You know about the Aerospace Carrier?"
General Zhao Yong: "Of course!"
"Do you really think I don't know anything?"
"Although the Aerospace Carrier is just a concept, I happen to know a little about it!"
"You might not know this, but our country once planned to launch a manufacturing project called 'Nantianmen'!"
"It covered many types of conceptual high-tech weapons!"
"And this Aerospace Carrier was one of them! That was when I first heard of it!"
"However, for this 'Nantianmen' project to be realized, it would take at least a hundred years! And the core of it, the Aerospace Carrier, would take at least seventy years!"
At this point, General Zhao Yong couldn't help but ask Su Chen:
"How long do you plan for us to complete the construction of the Aerospace Carrier?"
"With your abilities, I feel twenty years should be enough!"
"If I try hard to live a couple more years, I might even be able to see it!"
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, giving him a look that said, "Who are you underestimating?"
"It's expected to be completed in about a year!"
As soon as these words were spoken, General Zhao Yong's eyes widened, and his heartbeat accelerated wildly!
He hurriedly took a bottle of emergency heart pills from his pocket and popped several of them!
Seeing this, Su Chen was dumbfounded!
"Old man, are you alright!"
It was only Su Chen who dared to call General Zhao Yong that, and he wouldn't get angry, but rather felt it was affectionate.
Waving his hand, General Zhao Yong said:
"You... you startled me!"
"I feel much better after taking the medicine!"
Su Chen felt a bit embarrassed!
This was a bit too exaggerated, wasn't it!
In fact, it wasn't exaggerated at all; being able to build an Aerospace Carrier in one year far exceeded General Zhao Yong's expectations!
"When do we start? By the way, aren't you still in charge of the Eternal Day Project?"
"Do we have to wait until that project is finished before we can start building this?"
Su Chen indicated that it wasn't necessary: "They don't really need my help there anymore, so we can start building the Aerospace Carrier directly!"
"Both can proceed simultaneously without affecting each other at all!"
General Zhao Yong couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "It really has to be you, kid!"
"To be able to manage such a huge project while juggling another!"
"Since you're not afraid of being tired, then I'll risk my life to support you!"
At this moment, General Zhao Yong's subordinate walked over, stating that the higher-ups wanted to hold a welcome banquet for them!
General Zhao Yong waved his hand directly: "Let the soldiers go; I still have things to attend to!"
The so-called things, naturally, were to renovate the shipyard according to Su Chen's wishes!
Su Chen smiled calmly: "No need to rush, General Zhao Yong!"
General Zhao Yong looked up at the sky and couldn't help but feel emotional: "How can I not rush?"
"Many of our comrades from this generation can't hold on much longer!"
"Before they pass away, I want them to see the strength of our motherland so they can leave with peace of mind!"
Su Chen understood what General Zhao Yong meant, and he grinned: "Don't worry, General Zhao Yong, I will definitely let you all rest easy!"
Receiving Su Chen's promise, the corners of General Zhao Yong's mouth turned up, and he also revealed a smile.
With General Zhao Yong's firm support, the shipyard quickly started the renovation project.
Workers fought day and night, the roar of the machines deafening.
During the process of dismantling the roof, sparks flew everywhere, like fireworks blooming in the night sky.
At the same time, various pieces of equipment were also undergoing upgrades and maintenance.
General Zhao Yong personally took charge of the command, coordinating resources from all sides to ensure that every task proceeded in an orderly manner.
Meanwhile, Su Chen dove headfirst into the intense design and R&D work.
After leaving the shipyard, Su Chen hurried to the Dragon Kingdom Academy of Sciences without stopping.
The tall buildings of the Academy of Sciences were full of a sense of technology, and the white outer walls shone in the sunlight.
Stepping through the gates of the Academy of Sciences, Su Chen immediately felt a strong academic atmosphere.
He headed straight for the Laboratory researching anti-gravity technology.
In the Laboratory, the Dragon Kingdom's most advanced particle accelerator was placed.
This huge piece of equipment exuded a cold, metallic luster, with various circuits and pipes connected in a complex manner.
This was the key equipment for realizing anti-gravity technology.
And anti-gravity technology was the core technology of the Aerospace Carrier.
According to theory, as long as negative gravitons were found and combined with gravitons, the chain of gravity propagation could be broken, achieving the disappearance of gravity, thereby providing key technical support for the flight of the Aerospace Carrier.
Su Chen and the researchers from the Academy of Sciences quickly began their research work.
He sat in front of the computer and opened the blueprints and data documents he had brought.
Those complex formulas and charts flickered on the screen, his gaze focused and fervent.
Assistants gathered around him, occasionally asking questions and offering suggestions.
Relying on the abundant knowledge reserves in his mind and precise blueprint data, Su Chen led the team to make continuous progress in their research.
During an intense experiment, the data on the instruments suddenly showed violent fluctuations.
Su Chen stared intently at the display screen, his heart rate accelerating.
As the data gradually stabilized, he clenched his fists:
"The traces of negative gravitons... we've finally found them!"
The entire team was shocked!
Because it had only been fifteen days since the project started!
Yet core work had achieved a huge breakthrough!
"Next is stable production!"
Su Chen was very surprised; this project was actually much easier than he had expected!
Meanwhile.
On the international stage, Japan and the USA were worried about the Dragon Kingdom's Electromagnetic Railgun.
In a confidential meeting room in Japan, the lights were dim, and the atmosphere was oppressive.
Japanese officials and representatives from the USA sat around a long table; this was already their tenth meeting!
During this time, they had been communicating constantly, just to find a way to sanction the Dragon Kingdom!
And after deliberation, they had only come up with one solution!
That was to contact more countries and hold a joint meeting!
To discuss restricting the Dragon Kingdom's Electromagnetic Railgun!
