Chapter 195

"Let me confirm one more time, are you absolutely sure there are no problems?"

Director Yang said.

"Oh, there really are no problems."

"Zhu Xinghan is going up there in a bit too."

"Look, one of Dongda's top aerospace experts and me, one of Dongda's top weapons experts."

"With the two of us guaranteeing it."

"There is absolutely no problem!"

Zhang Wen pulled Zhu Xinghan over and guaranteed it.

Zhu Xinghan, however, looked at Zhang Wen with a bewildered expression.

"No, you didn't tell me I had to go up there."

"How am I supposed to go up?"

Zhu Xinghan said, looking bewildered.

"Old Zhu, don't you trust yourself?"

"You're the one operating it the whole time."

"Don't worry, nothing will go wrong!"

Zhang Wen guaranteed with full confidence.

Director Yang then requested instructions from his superior.

"Yes, that's right, Zhang Wen and Zhu Xinghan are both here."

"With their guarantee, there shouldn't be any problems."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

It was clear they were considering it for a long time.

Added to the guarantees from Zhang Wen, Zhu Xinghan, and Director Yang.

Only then did the person on the other end finally relent.

"Fine."

"Be sure to prioritize safety."

"If anything happens to you, Dongda will have a major earthquake."

The person on the phone said with a laugh.

Director Yang gave repeated assurances.

He hung up the phone.

Director Yang glared at Zhang Wen.

"You're almost thirty years old."

"And you're still so reckless."

"Have you ever seen an aerospace designer go up themselves?"

Zhang Wen smiled nonchalantly: "Don't worry, Director Yang, the main factor limiting designers from going to space before was physical fitness."

"Now that we can adjust gravity to resist G-force, the physical requirements aren't as high."

"Besides, we'll be wearing spacesuits in a bit, and those are specially designed too."

"They're definitely not simple."

"Besides, this is the first time the Kunpeng is appearing in the world; as the designer, if I don't have confidence in it."

"Then who would?"

"Spacecraft aren't airplanes; you can't parachute out of an airplane."

"Once a spacecraft has an accident, there's no chance to save your life."

"If I don't dare to go up, how could I have the nerve to ask astronauts to go up?"

Zhang Wen finished speaking.

Zhu Xinghan feigned a glare at Zhang Wen.

"Good fellow, you're taking a jab at me, aren't you."

"Are you taking a jab at me!"

"No, no, no, you didn't have these conditions back then, did you?!"

Zhang Wen hurriedly explained.

"Alright, alright."

"Here are these two spacesuits for you."

"I'll go to the warehouse and get another set."

Zhang Wen handed the spacesuits he had placed to the side to Director Yang and Zhu Xinghan.

Then he turned and went to the warehouse to get things.

Seeing Zhang Wen leave.

Zhu Xinghan said with some concern: "Director Yang, are you just going to let Factory Manager Zhang play around like this?"

"Even risking his life."

Director Yang looked at the spacesuits from the side and said: "The first project Zhang Wen took on when he started down the path of military industry came from my hands."

"At that time, I remember it was because his family's Qingtian Equipment Manufacturing Factory was about to go bankrupt."

"They couldn't even pay wages."

"At that time, I was the one who prepaid a sum of money to him."

"Only then did he pay out the wages."

"That project was very good."

"It was a small boat."

"You should have heard of it."

"A missile boat."

Zhu Xinghan thought for a moment and said: "I have heard of that."

"I was still a doctoral student at the time, in the lab, and heard a group of people outside marching on campus."

"They said we finally won a victory in the South Sea and successfully drove the Eagle Country destroyer out of the South Sea."

Zhu Xinghan said with a smile.

"Yes, it was truly difficult back then."

"A small Eagle Country destroyer trapped our entire country."

"The person competing with Zhang Wen at the time was called Director Feng."

"He was a student who had studied abroad."

"After returning to the country, he was responsible for ship design."

"It's a pity, he was a spy."

"Actually, we all knew he was a spy back then."

"But, if you don't use him, who else can you use?"

Director Yang said with some emotion.

"In that situation, with the country's strength being poor, if you wanted to gain advanced ship manufacturing experience, you had to go abroad to study."

"But going abroad to study had a high probability of becoming a spy."

"There was no other way."

"We could only tolerate him at the time."

"Do you know when this situation changed?"

Director Yang asked Zhu Xinghan.

Zhu Xinghan shook his head and said: "I really don't know that."

"It started with Zhang Wen."

"At that time, this kid's missile boat was actually a phased product; we all knew it wasn't very outstanding. It wasn't any truly advanced weapon either."

"But, the key lies in."

"This kid pointed out a path for us, a path that could rely on domestic talent."

"He was just a student at the military university at the time, not a graduate student, not a doctoral student, just an ordinary undergraduate."

"He had no experience studying abroad from childhood to adulthood."

"He had never been abroad at all."

"It was exactly this kind of Zhang Wen who gave a completely different design."

"The key is that it surpassed Director Feng, who had studied abroad and was a doctor from a foreign university."

"This simply made our eyes light up."

"We were thinking at the time, did we do something wrong?"

"After all, you know, we always felt that those who had studied abroad and seen the outside world could always do better."

Zhu Xinghan nodded and said: "I know about this matter; my supervisor at the time had always studied domestically. He also had no experience studying abroad."

"At that time, it was very difficult for our research lab to get funding, and we couldn't apply for projects."

"Yes."

Director Yang smiled bitterly: "It started from Zhang Wen's sudden emergence."

"We changed our thinking."

"Where exactly were the talents we cultivated ourselves lacking?"

"So we changed and started to value local talent."

"The result really surprised us."

"You, Director Shen from the Northeast, and many, many others who are now project leaders, research institute directors, and academicians are all talents cultivated domestically."

"Hahaha, then it seems I have to thank him properly."

Zhu Xinghan said jokingly.

"Hahaha, that's not necessary."

"I'm telling you this to show my trust in the two of you."

"I trust him, and I trust you."

"Besides, I've lived to this age."

"I'm already about to be buried."

"Seeing Dongda prosperous and flourishing before I die."

"Even if I die, it's worth it."

"What dying or not dying?"

"You're talking as if it's very unlucky."

A voice suddenly came.

The two immediately looked in the direction the voice came from.

They saw Zhang Wen had already put on his spacesuit.

Walking over with a waddle.
