Chapter 597 Fools are sometimes lucky.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiao Mo suddenly grabbed Jiang Xia's wrist and dragged him towards another hangar.
"Jiang, the reed relays you got for the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications last time have been a huge help! Ever since we started using them, the radar transceiver link's response speed has increased dramatically! Let me take you over to have a look!"
"Huh? Really?" Jiang Xia was a little stunned. That space division switch was actually an accessory in the TCP/IP family of protocols.
He didn't really know the specific function of the reed relay in the radar; he only knew that in equipment control, it was just an automatic switching element with isolation function.
"Yeah! In terms of switching the transmission path of radio frequency signals, it's much faster than the Type 47 from the Alliance, and it also consumes less power and is smaller!"
"Most importantly, its drive current is only tens of milliamps, which is why we had the idea of making it into a mobile device!"
"Come on, I'll show you."
Jiang Xia clicked his tongue. No wonder he had the idea of researching early warning aircraft at this time. He never expected that a small reed relay could bring about so many changes. Hehe, I'm really amazing!
No, it's the old man Wang in front of me who's amazing. He's just as daring and decisive as the rumors say!
However, since you're taking me to see this so casually, am I the one who's getting myself into trouble, or are you the one who's getting yourself into trouble?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia wanted to offer some advice:
"Hey, I'm here to repair Optimus Prime. If I go with you, Battalion Commander Yue won't allow it!"
"Hey! Don't worry about that! Commander Yue's matter is easy to handle. Actually, if I hadn't run into you today, I would definitely have gone to the steel rolling mill uninvited!"
"This is truly, truly a huge problem!"
Comrade Xiao Mo looked melancholy.
"Battalion Commander Yue, how about I borrow Engineer Jiang for a bit? After all, it's useless if the vehicle is fixed but the radar isn't working!"
Battalion Commander Yue had been bottling up his frustration for a while. He'd only wanted a blueprint and be done with it, but the radar engineer initially waved him off, saying he didn't have any. Then, upon hearing that it was Jiangxia, he yelled and ran towards the hangar. Fine, he ran, and he ran faster than him, but he couldn't just take the man with him! But, what the junior engineer said did make some sense.
But, won't Xiao Jiang's union be angry if we do this?
It started as repairing trucks, then turned into repairing radar antennas, and in the end, Researcher Wang clearly wanted to hire Engineer Jiang to build radar!
Putting myself in his shoes, I realized I'd probably explode in anger if I were in that situation. It's true I'm a soldier, and I must obey orders unconditionally, but Xiao Jiang isn't!
No, Xiao Jiang, you're a good worker, you can't expect him to bully you!
Battalion Commander Yue's eyebrows furrowed, intending to refuse the offer on Jiang Xia's behalf. "Hmph! I hired Young Engineer Jiang. If you want his help, you'd better go and pay him a visit yourself with gifts!"
"With Jiang's help, our own four-row Yagi will definitely see farther and more accurately than the Alliance's two-row Yagi! You won't even have to wait for the radar to be used; the radar will be waiting for you to use it!"
"When we deploy them, we deploy five or six! One to measure distance, one to measure bearing, one to measure altitude, and the last two, one for close-range tracking and one for medium-range tracking! When the time comes, you'll bring down every one of those damned high-altitude reconnaissance planes that comes your way!"
Comrade Xiao Mo was quite clever. First, he used a series of vivid imaginations to make Battalion Commander Yue squint and dream. Then, he turned to look at Jiang Xia with a sincere expression.
"Jiang, I understand what you meant earlier. Look at this!"
As he spoke, Comrade Xiao Mo took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket. Jiang Xia took a look and exclaimed, "Well, no wonder you were able to say that the Chinese people are not backward. The solutions that others can think of, we Chinese people can also think of, and even think of them earlier!"
Your project application already includes Jiang Xia in the deputy chief designer section; you're really ahead of the curve!
Seeing Jiang Xia's teasing gaze, Xiao Mo, who had always been quite bold, shrank back.
"Hehehe, just for the reed relay alone, you could be the chief engineer! But let's respect the senior engineer! Let my master stay in the chief engineer position, so he can save face..." Ugh! This little Mo guy's mouth! He's really good at talking. Does he think Jiang Xia doesn't know who this Teacher Zhongyi is?
The direct supervisor of the Little Red Building at Miaoershan in Nanjing!
A landmark in the birthplace of China's radar industry!
How do you know so much?
The man who shared a dormitory with Jiangxia in later generations, though he was a worker who played with "civilian" radar, always regarded this building as a "sacred mountain" in his heart.
Where there is a "sacred mountain," there must be role models. Teacher Zhongyi is a role model for many radar people.
Perhaps it's because this expert did something that highlighted the power of the "Sharingan" (a term referring to the ability of the Chinese to see the Sharingan).
For a whole month, he used a telescope to observe the shape of the air defense early warning radar set up by the Russians in Northeast China through the barbed wire fence. He not only figured out the configuration of the radar antenna, but also estimated the approximate physical size of the antenna.
Thus, the 314A early warning radar was born!
With such a figure on the same project, what is there for Jiang Xia to hesitate about?
Go on!
Let's see what challenges they are facing. They may not be familiar with complex electromagnetic field theories and microwave technology, but they are confident in mechanical design!
After explaining to Battalion Commander Yue, who was still hesitating, that Optimus Prime was beyond repair and that they should just replace it with a new one, Jiang Xia followed Comrade Xiao Mo and ran deeper into the base.
Battalion Commander Yue grinned foolishly as he bid farewell to Jiang Xia, and then began to fantasize in the Zhejiang hangar about what the new "Optimus Prime" would look like.
Secretary Liu followed behind Jiang Xia with a furrowed brow.
"What's wrong?"
"Tsk, isn't it a bit much to lie! Our factory doesn't have any backups besides the one we're currently using! Isn't it a bit much to say you're giving someone a new one... Recently, many of our colleagues haven't been able to go home for the New Year, so we're a bit stretched when it comes to work arrangements."
"Hey, when have I ever lied! Have you forgotten about that big machine that's been shoved into the excavator storage room?"
Secretary Liu suddenly remembered, her pupils shrinking: "You're willing to release this? Aren't you going to conduct some kind of controlled experiment?"
"What's there to be reluctant about? The camels haven't arrived yet, so let them use them for now! We'll go back and debug the automatic control system, then send them over! Luckily, we had a backup plan; the luxury sedan chairs haven't been made yet, otherwise we'd be stuck with this problem..."
"Tsk, giving it to them, that's a real upgrade!" Secretary Liu clicked his tongue, glancing at Battalion Commander Yue who was still waving at them: "Fools are always lucky!"
Come to think of it, a "palace" that integrates so many automatic controls, combined with a missile battalion that currently represents the highest level of air defense, can't be considered to have wasted its potential!
As the three of them continued on their way, they saw a group of comrades running laps ahead, with something resembling a radar placed neatly in the center of the laps.
As they ran, they were gesturing with their hands. Perhaps because they found the weather too cold, everyone was wearing a thick mask.
Comrade Xiao Mo greeted Jiang Xia, took out masks for him and Secretary Xiao Liu to wear, and then pulled him to the very end of the line.
"Huh? Are you guys training according to the team rules? Running with masks on, what kind of secret technique is that?"
"No, it's too cold, I'm freezing. We were running around these radar components, discussing the antenna architecture and signal processor as we went." Xiao Mo sniffed, her legs moving incredibly fast. "You know what, things I couldn't figure out after racking my brains in the office for ages, just a couple of laps and inspiration just popped in..."
Tsk, no wonder you can't even run as fast as Battalion Commander Yue.
This is how feelings are cultivated!
