Technological Supremacy Chapter 466: Ion thruster design and Shen Lang’s marketing plan

Looking at more and more files inside the cloud server, Cao Yuan's expression became serious. These data and materials are Luo Jia's painstaking research on ion propulsion. At this moment, Luo Jia is handing over the ion propulsion project to Cao Yuan.

This is really too generous. After all, scientists are human beings. Even if they don't care about money, they still like reputation.

"As expected of Mr. Luo, he is indeed an existence beyond our cognition. His reputation is like dung to him. He must lead China to the goal of stars and seas, so he is worthy of Mr. Luo. .” Cao Yuan thought with admiration in his heart.

Clicking on one of the databases, Cao Yuan saw many sketches drawn by Luo Jia. Although his art skills are still poor, as long as you have enough power injection and electromagnetic physics, it is not difficult to understand the design.

The principle of an ion thruster is as follows: first ionize the propellant, then use the electric field to accelerate the ejection of ions, form a thrust at the tail, and at the same time inject electrons into the emitted ion beam to make it electrically neutral Sex, this step is very important, if it is not neutral, the ions will be attracted back by the spacecraft and cause damage.

In the past, traditional ion thrusters first injected electrically neutral mercury into the ionization chamber, and at the same time injected electrons, and then the electromagnetic coils around the ionization chamber accelerated the bombardment of the injected electrons, using neutral mercury atoms to Mercury ions are produced, which are then accelerated by an external electric field and neutralized using electrons.

In the last ten years, people have used xenon instead of mercury to overcome the highly toxic effect of mercury.

Anyway, to put it simply, although the traditional scientific community knows that if you want to fly across galaxies, you must get ion propulsion, but the academic community has not had any new ideas on the design of ion thrusters. From mercury to xenon, it is at most material replacement. , can make the thruster safer, but it is not subversive at all.

In the first design, Luo Jia uses the interaction between the magnetic field and the electric field to ionize and accelerate the propulsion, replacing the original acceleration grid design, so the ionization rate of xenon gas is greatly increased.

In addition, Luo Jia also designed an ion thruster based on the Hall effect, which confines the electrons ejected from the center to the circular ionization area, allowing these electrons to accelerate under the action of the electromagnetic field, impact and ionize as propulsion The xenon gas of the agent makes the xenon in the ionized state accelerated by the electric field to be ejected.

"These designs are too powerful!" Cao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help exclaiming: "I really don't know how Mr. Luo came up with these two designs, which completely overcome the limitations of traditional ion propulsion. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are epoch-making! It is unimaginable that Mr. Luo did all this in his spare time!"

The admiration for Luo Jia in my heart has almost reached the level of five bodies. In the field of graphene, Cao Yuan has already become a god, and he is in the limelight for a while, but Luo Jia and An Ran, who really lead the company, are rare all-around players , An Ran knew everything from mechanics to electricity, and Luo Jia was even worse. No one knew how much he knew. Even Cao Yuan couldn't match their abilities.

Another vice president of the company, Li Moran, who is usually low-key and abnormal, also has his own unique ability. Luo Jia's request to the software department is not to make mistakes, not to create a bunch of bugs, let alone let North American competitors find software backdoors , and Li Moran's mind was delicate and steady, and he completed the work very well. Although his reputation was far worse than that of An Ran and Luo Jia, the software produced by Xingchen Technology had an excellent reputation and was a complete mess of stability and security.

"I am so lucky to be able to work with these truly top-notch bigwigs! I must work hard to promote this project. Otherwise, with Mr. Luo's straight temper, he will definitely choose nuclear pulse. In that case , the company will inevitably be criticized by the world again, hey, it is really difficult for Mr. Luo, in order to achieve the goal, he will do whatever it takes, but he is the most hated existence by female boxers and environmentalists. Boss Luo’s house is throwing rotten eggs, with insulting words like rotten man written on it.” Cao Yuan thought to himself.

Since the founding of the Tough Guys Group, Luo Jia has been feuding with Female Boxer. Who made him be a monk all over the company? Killing the scum girl and the green tea whore, all of these made Luo Jia a thorn in the side of female boxers.

In the past, female boxers found the place where Luo Jia’s parents lived and threw rotten eggs into the yard. On the egg shells were pictures of Luo Jia’s smelly man and a single dog, but they disappeared later. As for why they disappeared, Luo Jia didn't know either, he just mentioned something casually when he was chatting with the general.

Putting away his emotions, Cao Yuan fell into thinking, his brain was running like a crazy machine, he was also the top ten brains in the company, and he quickly figured it out. The reason why Luo Jia was dissatisfied was that he did not mention ion propulsion for a long time. The main reason for the project is that the speed is not up to standard.

As a typical science man and a pragmatist, Luo Jia believes that ion propulsion must reach or even exceed the speed of nuclear pulse propulsion before it can be used. After all, the universe is too big, and speed is the first priority of the aircraft .

Otherwise, the nuclear pulse propulsion is so cool, simple and rude, without nuclear fusion as a front, just throw the nuclear fission bomb into deep space, calculate the time and angle of detonation, and leave a string in the huge pond of the universe. The bright ripples push the spaceship to accelerate, and then accelerate again! Burst into the unknown and deep galaxy.

Such a scene is so handsome, okay?

Aside from being unfriendly and dangerous, Luo Jia couldn't find any other reasons for refusing.

…

The joining of Cao Yuan and Shen Lang injected great vitality into the company's leadership. The current management team of Star Technology is almost the youngest existence in the world. Most of them are under 30 years old, and there is even a 16-year-old teenager.

The media and the people are all surprised, but considering that the boss Luo Jia is not very old, and Shen Lang is a genius who is one in a million, perhaps age is actually not as important as people think. Gan Luo paid homage to the prime minister at the age of twelve, relying on his strength.

Soon, Xingchen Daily Chemical Group was established. It belongs to the third-level department of the company. Yes, the main purpose is to collect money, so the operation is relatively independent.

After the new official Shen Lang took office, he asked Luo Jia to contact the national team to acquire the only large-scale daily chemical company in China, the Shanghai Daily Chemical Group.

After years of development, Pechoin, a domestic product brand under Hudu Daily Chemical, has begun to take shape and popularity. It is too slow to build its own channels. Money and channels can also be bought.

In addition, Shen Lang plans to buy back the Dabao brand from Johnson & Johnson in North America, focusing on the male product line, and from Henkel in Germany, buying the baby noodles, focusing on the infant product line, forming a brand based on Pechoin, Dabao, and Haier. The three major product lines headed by noodles.

The matter of mergers and acquisitions is not difficult, because the company has a professional agency, the Ministry of Commerce.

The reason why Luo Jia decided to establish the Ministry of Commerce was because he felt that scientists lacked the ability to deal with businessmen and were not cunning enough, so he asked Hong Tao to recruit a large number of business elites to form a department that was responsible for negotiations, mergers and acquisitions, and interest exchanges. department.

Employees of the Ministry of Commerce are also very international. After all, before 2019, among the students studying abroad in my country every year, the proportion of studying business has always been higher than that of science and engineering.

The reality is always so cruel. It has been a fashion for many years for those who have a Ph.D. in theoretical physics to go out of school to engage in finance, get high salaries, and give up theoretical research. .

There are a huge number of international students studying business, so it is much easier for the Ministry of Commerce to poach business elites from abroad than to recruit Zhang Dongning, a big player in the field of organic chemistry. They grabbed a handful, but the science and engineering department at the headquarters complained endlessly, and there was always not enough manpower, which made everyone work overtime every day.

This situation changed suddenly in 2019. In this year, the cruel trade war began. North America led the Western Legion to start a global siege against China.

For a while, the people of Huaxia, who felt a huge threat, finally understood the deep malice of this world~IndoMTL.com~ realized that their own nation is special, and there is no second at all except for full independence and full transcendence. way.

So in 2019, science and engineering courses exploded. For the first time in 20 years, the number of people studying science and engineering abroad exceeded that of business. It seems that the whole society gradually understands the question of who is a friend and who is an enemy. It's not too late to understand.

In short, Star Technology not only has strong research and development capabilities, but also business, legal affairs, finance, and even the canteen and gym of Star Technology are world-class. When Shen Lang proposed a merger and acquisition, Luo Jia approved it, and the Ministry of Commerce immediately took action. Taking off from Shanghai, they went to Germany, France, North America, Neon, and aggressively acquired companies named by Shen Lang.

Some of these acquisitions are feints, and they are specially made to show business opponents, to let the acquired target know that Star Technology will not be hanged on a tree. If you don’t sell it, we can still buy it from others, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity , that is no chance.

After handing over the merger and acquisition matters to Hong Tao, Shen Lang began to prepare the marketing plan. He spent a few days to prepare the plan, and handed it over to Luo Jia and other management for discussion during the regular meeting of the management authority.

After reading it, everyone felt that the little guy Shen Lang was a bit ruthless. After all, there has never been a free lunch in the world, and the free one is the most expensive.
