Chapter 69: with translation of chapter title
"Hello, can you tell me your requirements for the Crystal Element control system?"
When the time came to noon on the third day, Li Mingyang finally succeeded in meeting the industry bigwig introduced by his senior brothers and sisters in the cafeteria.
At least as far as the school is concerned, this person before him is indeed a bigwig, no mistake; he is also a student of an Academician, and moreover a top-level PhD student.
One could even say that for his own small drone order, asking the other party to take action is already somewhat overkill.
However, Li Mingyang was quite satisfied with this; as long as it was talent, he was willing to pay the price even if it was a bit expensive.
After all, the saying 'you get what you pay for' holds true in the research community; it can be called a true maxim representing truth.
Although expensive doesn't necessarily mean good, cheap things certainly won't be good.
Moreover, this is the talent recommended to him by the Eldest Senior Sister after she carefully researched materials for several days.
As for the abilities of his own senior brothers and sisters, Li Mingyang still trusts them somewhat; after all, birds of a feather flock together.
Although everyone studies different specialties, anyone who can catch the eye of his senior brothers and sisters, and even be recommended by them,
The level will certainly not be lacking; at the very least, it more than meets Li Ming's requirements.
However, the problem also lies here: since the two are not in the same specialty, Li Mingyang doesn't know how much this senior brother before him understands about aircraft.
For a moment he actually didn't know how to start speaking, after all Li Mingyang was genuinely worried that the other party might not understand what he had received.
If it ends up being mismatched, even if the other party has sufficient skill, what should be done if the product turns out unsuitable?
It seemed he had noticed Li Mingyang's concern, as the other party's face showed a confident smile:
"This junior brother doesn't need to think so much; although I don't know much about your specialty, as long as you give specific data and requirements."
"Making a control system compatible with your work is not that difficult a problem."
"Moreover, making the control system isn't something that succeeds in one go; later we'll have to continually adjust according to the actual situation."
"After undergoing multiple tests, only then can we obtain a relatively perfect compatible control system, so now junior brother you just need to give a specific datum."
Upon hearing the other party's words, Li Mingyang also realized in an instant that, since they are both from the same school, naturally there should have been many people before who sought cooperation with this senior brother.
Even if the other party doesn't know much about his own specialty, at least they have considerable experience in this area.
And just as the other party said, this thing is not something that can be achieved overnight; rather, it requires continual adjustment and improvement before it can gradually be perfected.
Thinking of these, Li Mingyang no longer hesitated, directly taking out from his computer bag that he carries several sheets of draft paper on which he had previously drawn design sketches.
"Senior brother, look, these things are the draft I have currently designed; regarding performance and various design aspects, the actual product made should not differ much from this."
"Senior brother, you just need to customize according to this data."
Originally, regarding what Li Mingyang could produce, the senior brother before him wasn't paying much attention, after all Li Mingyang is really too young.
Although when coming over he had already heard Wang Yaqin and them say that this little junior brother seemed to have something, he also hadn't paid much attention to it.
Anyway, for himself, he thought this task wasn't much of a challenge.
However, when he clearly saw the numbers on the design drawings, he couldn't help but stare with his mouth wide open in surprise.
Drones are not unfamiliar to him; indeed, one could say that this gadget had already become popular all over the world early on.
And as Harbin Institute of Technology is a top-tier institution in this field, there are actually not a few people in the school who have tried to make this.
And to want a stable drone one must have an initial control system, but he had never seen any drone design as……crazy!
Is this really the data that a drone in his impression should have?
In his impression, the biggest use of a drone should be just to mount a camera and shoot some scenery; that would be enough.
If the endurance could be a bit longer, that would be perfect, but what on earth is this thing that this little junior brother before him has designed?
A performance monster?
"Senior brother, don't be too surprised; the drone I designed is quite different from those before, or rather from those on the market."
"I call the drone I designed a high-speed, high-maneuverability shuttlecraft, emphasizing ultra-high agility and ultra-fast speed."
"It can achieve fast and agile maneuverability in various complex terrains."
"It is precisely for this reason that I asked my senior brothers and sisters to find you, senior brother, because my drone truly has very high requirements for the control system."
Even if the other party didn't speak, Li Mingyang could still see what they were thinking, because their thoughts were practically written on their face.
So Li Mingyang proactively explained a sentence; this was also his original design purpose.
After all, he had already taken action; if he were to make one of those boring little toys now seen on the market, wouldn't all his effort over this long time be wasted?
Since he's going to do it, Li Mingyang must make something truly unique.
And upon hearing Li Mingyang's words, Sun Dongnan couldn't help but put on a somewhat bitter smile:
"Little junior brother, you've really given me a big problem!"
"Originally I thought that coming over this time would at most take three or five days to finish, but now it seems……"
"If we were to make a control system according to your requirements, junior brother, I estimate it couldn't be completed without one or two months."
"Not only must we guarantee flight precision, but each individual engine must also be able to be quickly and nimbly controlled in direction……"
Listening to Li Mingyang's design concept and requirements, and then looking at the simple yet somewhat rough design drawings before him,
Sun Dongnan really couldn't help but have a headache; the previous medicine price was indeed too cheap, just a mere 5000 bucks.
Originally he thought that earning 5000 bucks in a few days of side work was already not bad, but now……
Sun Dongnan really wanted to say, 'Can I just cancel the order directly?' This order, even for his current level, is quite a complex job!
Even one or two months is still his conservative estimate; if it really came to actual operation, it's quite possible that not even a semester would be enough to finish it!
After all, in real life one will always encounter this or that problem, and each time a problem arises it means his system needs another improvement.
If this continues on, truly wanting to wait until the finished product comes out, he really wouldn't know when to wait until!
"Senior brother, rest assured; as long as you help me get this system done, I can give you 50,000 bucks as remuneration for your work during this period."
