Blackstone Code Chapter 715: Institute
Text 0715 Research Institute
The weather is getting hotter.
It can sometimes be cold in winter, but there will always be times when it's warmer by putting on a few extra layers of clothing.
Summer is really suffering, even if you don't wear clothes, it will still be hot. The ubiquitous heat, even the wind is scalding hot, not only will it not feel cool when it blows on people, but it will make it even hotter .
Even the most prosperous streets in Bupen have seen a significant drop in the flow of people, and people are afraid of the heat.
Lynch thought of the summer in Nagalil, where the summer temperature was obviously a bit warmer than the Commonwealth, but it wouldn't make people feel hot.
The scorching heat wave in the shade of the swirling trees has become shady, and it blows on people's body with a coolness that penetrates the heart.
There is nothing more enjoyable than sitting on a wicker chair, blowing the wind and watching those Nagalilites sweat on the construction site in the hot summer.
When Lynch entered the institute, a group of staff were debugging some machine.
"What are they doing?" Lynch asked casually.
The director of the institute who came to greet him immediately explained, "They are installing a thermostat, which keeps the space temperature in the institute within a stable threshold range."
"Some materials that are more sensitive to temperature changes need to be tested in different environments, so we purchased a set. They said it was a central... or something." The director can't remember the word, he is not sure about this. don't really care about it.
It's actually the central air conditioner, Lynch nodded.
Actually, his perception was slightly wrong. This thing is not just as simple as a central air conditioner. It can reduce the temperature of some rooms to close to zero, which is currently difficult for air conditioners to do.
Sometimes a breakthrough in cutting-edge technology can often lead to successive breakthroughs in many related technologies. For the current federation, it is about to enter a period of technological blowout. As long as those people have fantastic ideas that can convince others, they will It is not difficult to get investment from the hands of rich people.
This research institute was acquired by Lynch for a small amount of money. The research institute itself is not valuable, and the land is not valuable. It became Lynch's property if it was less than 300,000 yuan, and of course there is no information in it. And researchers, there are only some precision instruments used for research that are not outdated, but also not the most advanced.
This research institute is currently assigned to "Blackstone Industries", which is not an operating company in some ordinary sense. It doesn't actually produce anything by itself, not now, nor in the future.
This is a research institution that Lynch has invested a lot of money in, employing some real scientists and a small number of folk scientists, and its value is to provide all kinds of ways to realize people's interesting ideas.
These methods would be registered as patents and then licensed to "Blackstone Manufacturing" and a number of other Lynch-owned companies for production.
For example, the aircraft company that has a lot of relatives of members of Congress and representatives of the military join, they will get the authorization, and they will produce something.
It is impossible for Lynch to take it too seriously, and it is impossible for Lynch to assign some important work to it.
It's a company with loopholes that can't save anything at all.
The two of them officially set foot inside the research institute only after the static electricity has been removed.
"Mr. Lynch, you provided some ideas about the aircraft engine, we have already started to design..." The director took the initiative to open a door for Lynch, and the two entered the interior of the institute.
The security forces used in the entire research institute come from Blackstone Security.
Many researchers knew Lynch, but they obviously didn't come over to chat with Lynch, but were doing various calculations or experiments in earnest.
Lynch promises that if they can come up with the first dedicated aircraft engine by January 1st next year, then at least 3% of the profit generated by the first generation aircraft engine will be at most no more than 100%. Ten of the proceeds will be awarded to all researchers.
It doesn't seem like a lot. Maybe the authorized production cost of an engine is only tens of thousands of dollars, but the number of this stuff is definitely not small.
Whether it is a military purchase or a purchase by civilian enthusiasts, the researchers in the institute believe that it will not be a problem to sell a few thousand units during its lifespan, then only the 3% dividend generated by the licensing fee will be as high as Hundreds of thousands or more.
As long as this engine is not completely discontinued, the researchers at the Institute will continue to benefit from it.
In this period of economic downturn, it is very rare to have this kind of benefit, and everyone is working very hard to design.
The director of the research institute is not someone who does high-level research. He is an engineer in the laboratory of a heavy industry group. He is mainly responsible for designing high-horsepower engines to serve some construction machinery.
The job was relatively boring and lacked a bit of passion, and it wasn't until Lynch found someone who wanted him to change jobs that he regained his new passion.
Flying is always one of the most romantic fantasies in human bones. Everyone has the freedom to yearn for the sky, and the director is no exception, so when someone found him and told him that Lynch planned to invite him to study the engine of the aircraft , he agreed immediately.
Not only did he come alone, but he also poached some people in the industry he knew who were willing to change jobs. Of course, this also has something to do with the price that Lynch offered.
Lynch is very enthusiastic, people are enthusiastic, and money is also enthusiastic. Enthusiasm is often the most difficult thing for people to refuse.
"According to some of the ideas you provided, we have actually completed the most preliminary design..." Lin Qi said nothing along the way, and the director was a little uneasy. It has been three months since the establishment of the institute. .
If there is no progress in three months, he will feel a little embarrassed. He walked to the innermost part of the research institute. There are many plywoods, and there are drafts of various patterns and formulas on them.
The director found a piece, pushed it out, and showed it in front of Lynch.
"We theoretically pushed our first generation engine to over a hundred horsepower after some research and discussions, and our aircraft designers gave it a very nice look..."
The director proudly patted the draft of the plane behind him. This shape was designed by those folk scientists.
During this period, there was no stereotyped mutual contempt between academic scientists and civilian scientists, and both sides cooperated well.
It was a biplane similar to Lynch's impression. The propeller was in the front, and the structure was simple and effective. In fact, many planes designed by civilian scientists are like this.
"Why Wings...", Lynch asked a "small question", but obviously this small question is not so easy to answer.
The director hesitated for a while, and after apologizing, he brought in the designer, a civilian aircraft scientist invited by Lynch himself.
Lynch had seen him perform, the plane took off smoothly and then crashed, impressive.
After the guy came, Lynch asked his own question again, and the folk scientist answered "stable."
"Mr. Lynch, the biggest problem we face in the air is stability and sturdiness. The wings are designed to take care of a little bit. We don't need to worry about it suddenly disintegrating, and we don't need to worry that we are pulling up. will break the wing."
"The new engine will give it more power, and when doing some maneuvers we have to first consider whether our wings will allow us to do so..."
This civilian scientist is clearly a practitioner, and his flying experience, which he is said to have never landed successfully, is actually better than the formulas written in drafts by the fellows at the institute. valuable.
This is precisely the reason why Lynch, after recruiting a group of academic scientists, also recruits some civilian scientists with rich flying experience into the institute.
Practice is always more meaningful than doing work on paper. Their experience is from failure, not simulation, and these experiences are more valuable.
The civilian aircraft scientists who survived and were active for a long time during this period definitely escaped from all kinds of desperate situations.
Those civilian scientists with insufficient ability and brain power have long died in the last flight accident.
He kept narrating his point of view. In fact, he concluded in the end that it is difficult for the current materials to support a high-horsepower aircraft to do some complex movements in the air.
In other words, the engine of the current institute has theoretically surpassed all previous engines, and the design of the aircraft must accommodate the engine, not the engine to accommodate the aircraft.
"How long and how far can it fly?"
"We currently have three designs..."
"The first single pilot ~IndoMTL.com~ cuts all unnecessary equipment and can theoretically fly about 500 kilometers."
"The second type can carry two people, and the flight distance is about more than 300 kilometers."
"The third type can carry a pilot and six 105 howitzer shells, and the flight distance is about 150 kilometers."
When they say these data, both the director and the civilian scientists are very proud. If this kind of data is taken out, it will definitely detonate the entire industry.
They even designed an attack system in advance to drop shells directly from the sky!
Some aircraft before this have also considered attacking, but their approach is obviously not meaningful, such as using pistols, rifles, machine guns, etc. on the aircraft, all of which are of little value.
Pistols and rifles can't hit people on the ground at all. Machine guns can, but they need to fly at low altitudes.
As we all know, the biggest problem with the current aircraft is that it can't be pulled up after a quick dive, and it often hits the ground with one head. Therefore, it is obviously impossible to use a machine gun as an attack method.
As for throwing grenades...
If you fly too high, the grenade will explode in the air. If you fly too low, it is easy to be hit by machine guns. In addition, it is difficult to land, so until now, the aircraft has not completely entered the sight of the military of various countries.
As long as it can't form an effective combat force, everyone is not willing to study it excessively. It is better to let those civilian scientists continue to work on it, and the military and some companies will give them a little money from time to time.
The best results can be produced, and there is no big loss if you can't produce results.
