Super military empire

Liu Yijiu's words silenced everyone.

These things are facts, the truth they don't want to face.

The reason why they are reluctant to face it is that these people have paid no less for the country than those who call themselves state officials.The social division of labor is different, and it does not matter whether the contribution is large or small.Let them quietly dedicate their most precious youth to the country in such an environment, and even for a lifetime, not many people can do it.

"Don't think that you are leading cadres, and you are still senior leading cadres, you can scold anyone at will, especially high-tech talents who have made outstanding contributions to the country. The aluminum alloy researched by Wang Lijun makes our domestic aluminum alloy quality performance It will more than double, and the missile shell used in aerospace will be at least one-third lighter than the original mass, effectively increasing the range..." Liu Yijiu did not stop there.

"And he is the one who proposed to add rare earth elements to aluminum alloys and succeeded after experiments! He is our pride!" Under such circumstances, Liu Yijiu had to push all the aluminum alloys with rare earth elements. To Wang Lijun's body.

Only with grades can you have the qualifications to speak and be able to beat these big men in the face better.

"Okay, Comrade Liu, the difficulties currently encountered by the Ninth Institute are only temporary and will be resolved one day..." said a leader who didn't know which department.

Liu Yijiu didn't use the steps to get down, but asked coldly, "There will be one day, how long will this day be? Wang Lijun's family doesn't even know whether he is alive or not, because he gave up his vacation and all the time is used. In terms of technology research and development, there have always been very few family members in the base, because when it was first established, most of our people’s marriage problems were solved by the state! Individuals don’t have time off, even if there are, few people go back. They can't say what they have made! More importantly, when they go back to the blind date, the subject asks where they work, what benefits are they, how to answer, how to answer? Even if the blind date is successful, it is because there is no time to get along with each other. Think about these consequences..."

Long Yaohua had a splitting headache.

Liu Yijiu was like a deep-seated woman who complained at every opportunity, but he couldn't stop it.

He knew that this kid was talking about things, and he also knew that things were not as exaggerated as Liu Yijiu said, but he couldn't refute it.

He also knew that if he couldn't give an explanation, this kid would take the opportunity to complain about this matter.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, don't worry, we will come up with a plan as soon as possible to solve these problems you are currently encountering. Before coming, the logistics headquarters was discussing these matters with the General Political Department and the General Staff." Long Yaohua had to say Made a white lie.

Otherwise, don't want to continue today.

There are many things in the Ninth Hospital base that cannot be known to outsiders. The longer they stay here, the greater the possibility of leaking secrets. After today is over, they will leave the mountain. The schedule is very tight and can’t be allowed. Continue from Liu Yijiu with temperament.

"I mention thousands of bachelors in our base, thank you chief!" Liu Yijiu saw Long Yaohua stepping up, and he dared not step down.

Can't help but.

Last night, Long Yaohua gave him a clear attitude, that is the attitude of the high-level military, he represents the high-level military.

For other systems, he doesn't need to care, but the military's high-level officials can't.

Otherwise, in the end, no one will support them.

“Let’s introduce the progress of the Ninth Academy in terms of basic materials. This is not only vital for military industry, but also very important for national industrial science and technology.” Long Yaohua quickly changed the subject.

Zhao Maoping and others did not expect Liu Yijiu to be so indifferent to offending people, and they still haven't reacted.

Especially Jia Yiming, he was the person who came and the victim of the great turmoil that year, and he didn't dare to say anything under such circumstances.I was still feeling that Liu Yijiu, a newborn calf, was not afraid of tigers. Hearing Long Yaohua's question and seeing Liu Yijiu's signal, he hurriedly stood up.

"Dear chiefs, I am the chief technical engineer of the three districts. Although I am only responsible for the research of high-temperature alloys and aluminum alloys and other metal materials, I am very familiar with the technologies of our three districts. Let me introduce you to some of our current projects... …"

Jia Yiming said as he led everyone to some areas next to him.

Technical laboratories are small areas separated from the workshop for physical and chemical analysis and material performance related testing. Various smelting furnaces and chemical baths are located in another section of the workshop.

"Superalloys are currently of little use to the civilian market except for gas turbines. We will not introduce this aspect; we mainly introduce the improvement of the performance of metal materials by rare earth elements. This is the data obtained through long-term effective experiments. , Is also used in some of our advanced weapons and equipment, such as the new gun steel grade 25cr3mo3ninb, which has very high toughness, high temperature strength and hardness, which can effectively increase the service life of the gun barrel, allowing our current various tank guns The lifespan of the product is increased from 300 rounds to 500 rounds to 600 to 860 rounds. Because this material contains a large amount of carbides, the total amount of carbides is high, which brings high hardness and reduces the toughness of the material. For this situation At the suggestion of Comrade Liu Yijiu, we use some rare earth elements to refine the grain structure of the material..." Jia Yiming is obviously not good at introducing.

In the introduction, regardless of whether these bigwigs could understand or not, a series of professional terms came out of his mouth.

Finally, Liu Yijiu was interrupted.

"Jia Gong, just talk about the result." What if the introduction is more detailed?

"Okay!" Jia Yiming said vigorously. This is their most significant achievement. They have exchanged a lot of good things for Americans with materials without rare earth elements. At least they should be in such a big name. Just show off in front of you.

"The new type of gun steel with rare earth elements can increase the service life of our tank guns to more than one thousand rounds!" He immediately spit out a data that shocked everyone.

Long Yaohua knew the lifespan of the gun barrel used in the Longwei I tank, but he didn't know what material it was, only that it was a new type of gun steel.

"And our aluminum alloy, with the addition of rare earth elements, will also have higher performance. The Z-7 aircraft was successfully researched and finally dismantled. That is because the outer shell is too thick to ensure safety and structural strength. At the same time, the structural strength is also lower. Not too high. The new aluminum alloy can completely solve these problems with our Z-7." Jia Yiming said smugly.

Unfortunately, the -7 is not straightened in the base.

"Jia Gong, these are all military materials! What we need are high-end materials in the civilian field!" said an old leader who was less than 1.6 meters tall, wore black-rimmed glasses, and had silver-white hair.

"Military materials are similar to civilian materials. For example, our new gun steel has good strength, high hardness, and good toughness. It can be used in a series of fields such as rolls, heavy transmission shafts, and molds. Aluminum alloys are more useful. Wide, the leaders are all aware of these materials..." Jia Yiming gave a small flattery to the leaders.

Let them get back a little bit of the face that was trampled on by Liu Yijiu that was about to become scum.

"Rare earth elements really have such a powerful effect?" A young leader in his forties who has not spoken but listened patiently frowned and asked, "As far as I know, there is not much research in this area in our country. At present, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Mines are conducting export negotiations in this regard with the United States, Japan and other countries..."

"Hehe, we have only discovered a small part of the role of rare earth elements, because we do not have enough manpower, research equipment, and research funding. Director Liu plans to establish a rare earth element research center. The problem of manpower cannot be digged until it is solved. Even if there is only sporadic research, I can guarantee that the role of this material is the second most widely used material in the world, whether it is military industry, communications, or electronics. Circuits, microelectronics, chips, computers, etc." Jia Yiming did not expect that the country was actually preparing to export such important strategic materials.

If he knew that these strategic materials would be sold at the price of cabbage, he didn't know what it would be like.

Liu Yijiu's face is very ugly, for no other reason. I didn't expect the United States and Japan to act so quickly.

The export of rare earths was the export that suffered the most in the early stage of the reform and opening up of the Republic.

There are not many rare earth resources in the entire world. Eventually, after more private individuals entered the industry in the 1990s, the country’s strategic resources lost faster.

With cheap rare earth supplies from China, the U.S. government directly sealed up their rare earth mines in the Great Lakes region!All the rare earth resources are imported from China, and the surplus are stored up.

"Xiao Liu, is this rare earth element really so outrageous?" Long Yaohua asked Liu Yijiu's face twinkling softly.

Liu Yijiu looked at Long Yaohua in amazement, "Chief, do you think we handed over those technical papers indiscriminately? Except for what Lao Jia said, we can’t talk about the more important field, that is, precision guidance of missiles. The role of satellites should be stronger..."

Liu Yijiu's whispered answer made Long Yaohua no longer able to listen to Jia Yiming's introduction.

Jia Yiming led everyone to introduce the various processes and process equipment in the production test workshop, many of which were made by themselves.

Until lunch, the food in the cafeteria made Long Yaohua no appetite.

"I won't be with them in the afternoon. You can find someone to give me a detailed introduction about the use of rare earth elements..." Long Yaohua finally found Liu Yijiu and said to him very seriously.

"Because the Americans and Japanese urgently need us to provide rare earth mines in exchange for foreign exchange? These two horrendous national calculations are doing well. There is no research in this area in our country. They think we are idiots and tell us these things. It's useless..." Liu Yijiu understood what was going on, but made a cynical expression on his face.

Let Long Dao know, and then the entire military senior level will know.

In that case, it is a matter of national defense strategy. The United States and Japan would not want to obtain large-scale supply of rare earth mines from China cheaply.

As long as there is a high income, the country will naturally set up a special rare earth research team to further expand the research on rare earth elements.The more research results, the higher the price of rare earth elements in the international market.

Because China is the world's largest supplier of rare earth elements, and even some rare earth elements are unique to the entire world.

Liu Yijiu didn't feel too sensational, and took Long Yaohua to find a chance to leave the team, and then slyly touched the secret gate of the third district into the mountain.

"Originally, our missile guidance technology was very poor. They forced me to think of a way. I just came out of school, what can I think of. Thinking of the characteristics of some rare earth elements that I learned when I was in school, I just said nonsense. Those old guys really started to experiment, but they didn't expect it to take a long time..." Liu Yijiu did exactly that.

It's just that he is not unable to talk nonsense, but deliberately guides.

"This has a very good effect on precision guidance?" Long Yaohua's face was even more severe.

"Not only precision guidance, to be precise, satellite guidance should be better. This is mainly to improve the quality of communication... At the same time, adding certain rare earth elements to some top materials, the material performance will be more outstanding, we The artillery steel technology sold to the Americans does not contain rare earths. They have been researching rare earths for decades, and they probably understand this. So after obtaining our technology, they started negotiations..." Liu Yijiu Never forget to put eye drops on Americans.

"So, the American artillery steel technology is even worse than ours?" Long Yaohua was surprised.But the look of surprise was not too obvious.

Liu Yijiu shook his head, "The Americans use ordinary gun steel, which has a much longer service life than the Soviet gun barrels. It is estimated that rare earth elements are also added to it. Our overall technology cannot be compared with the United States. If they If we directly use our gun steel technology without adding rare earth elements, their cost will be higher than ours. In terms of service life, the cost..."

Seeing the expression on Long Yaohua's face, Liu Yijiu knew that if the Americans and Japan wanted to obtain more supply of rare earth mines from China, it might be a little overwhelming.

He even wondered if the Americans knew that he did it, would they send their killers to sneak into China and kill themselves!

"This use in the field of microelectronics is actually related to the guidance. Guidance is also the use of microelectronics. Basically, every result in our base has the use of this element. The base has not been successful. The United States estimates that the new type of radar has been completed. Lao Maozi does not have the technology. It is called active phased array radar. It needs to use more than five rare earth elements. Although not too many are used for each of them, they are indispensable!" In order to create greater difficulties for the Americans and Japanese, Liu Yijiu couldn't help but mention some projects that have not yet been reported to the country!
