Into Unscientific Chapter 535

  Chapter 535 Codenamed Begonia (Part 1)

  Although in the previous contact process, Liu Bosheng had heard Li Jue mention Lao Guo and others' debate on the principle of "meteorological Doppler radar".

  But Lao Guo and Lu Guangda are not professional radar researchers after all, so their descriptions are more purely theoretical.

   But judging from Sun Junren's reaction now

  The weather Doppler radar also seems to involve some specific items on the other side of the sea?

  Think here.

  Liu Bosheng couldn't help feeling curious, and quickly said to Sun Junren:

   "President Sun, don't worry, I'll send the telegram to you later, and I'll let the comrades in the ministry pass it on to you. Don't worry about it."

  After a simple reassurance to Sun Junren, Liu Bosheng asked again:

   "Speaking of Dean Sun, I don't know what the top-secret Doppler radar project you mentioned on the other side of the sea is...?"

  Sun Junren on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, not knowing whether he was sorting things out or calming down his mind. After a while, he said:

   "Yes, there is a related project on the other side of the sea, but its level of confidentiality is relatively high, so it is understandable that Guangda and the others don't know about it."

   "However, Comrade Bosheng, you are already on the informed list, so there is no problem in simply talking to you."

   Hear this statement.

  Liu Bosheng's protruding ears, which are already monkey spirits, immediately stood up gossiping.

  Eat melon.JPG.

   Then Sun Junren took a deep breath and said slowly:

   "About two months ago, the comrades in the secrecy department received a batch of information from across the sea—by the way, the batch of foreign documents from Factory 221 was one of them."

   "The total amount of information is not small. In addition to the batch of foreign documents, there are also some top-secret information involving multiple directions."

   "I don't know much about other types of information, but one of them is related to radar research and development, that is, a project called Nexrad was established across the sea, mainly for the development of weather Doppler radar."

   "The leader of the project is George Wheelton, the inventor of the inverse synthetic aperture radar technology."

   "According to the information, Haidian is very interested in this project, and the first phase approved a funding of 4 million dollars."

   Hear the number 9 million.

  Liu Bosheng took a deep breath, and the room temperature rose by 0.1 degrees:

   "Good guy, $4 million for the first issue?"

   "If I remember correctly, the cost of their Corona satellite is only 19 million dollars?" (Another statement in later generations is 26 million, and I adopted 1900.)

   "Yeah, $4 million."

  Sun Junren nodded with emotion, cursed the rich man in his heart, and then said:

   "However, the meteorological Doppler satellite is only a phased goal, and the entire project is ultimately to complete the research and development of the airborne pulse Doppler radar."

   "That is to say, it will be combined with the Aegis system, the AMSA plan, and ballistic missile detection, which are also in the embryonic stage, to form a new-generation trinity pattern."

   "That's why Comrade Bosheng, I said that it is impossible for the technology of weather Doppler satellites to appear in China—there is no word on the other side of the sea. How can we steal it?"

   Said the last.

  Sun Junren couldn't help shaking his head.

  As the former deputy director of the Ministry of Communications, Sun Junren has a deeper understanding of many intelligence aspects than many comrades at the same level.

   Therefore, for Lu Guangda, Lao Guo and even Liu Bosheng, the development of meteorological Doppler radar, which is quite controversial, has almost no feasibility in his opinion.

   Liu Jie, who was on the other end of the phone, obviously understood what Sun Junren meant. He was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked another question:

   "Dean Sun, I understand your thoughts very well, but is there a possibility. I mean a possibility"

   "What's possible?"

   "Maybe. Before the opposite side of the sea, someone—even the Chinese have already deduced the principle of weather Doppler radar? After all, although the opposite side of the sea is very strong, it doesn't mean that they will always be number one, right?"

  After hanging up the phone.

  Liu Bosheng called his assistant and asked him to forward the telegram to Sun Junren in encrypted form.

   Finish these.

  Liu Bosheng refocused on a document in front of him.

  The thickness of the document was about one centimeter, and at the top was written a line of flamboyant comments almost identical to the headline of the People's Daily:

  【Invited by Comrade Liu Bosheng】:

  【Nowadays, the international situation is treacherous. Emperor Melody is on the throne for the first time, Jilongtan will hold a grudge if he fails in his debut, and Sui Zong is short-sighted and conceited. The two are like rams and they are bound to cause trouble. We must guard against it.】

   Below the comments are some content related to international trends.

  Look at this comment.

  Liu Bosheng's face suddenly became serious.

   Just like the 221 factory received foreign language periodicals, and the Tenth Academy received information from the meteorological Doppler radar.

  As the direct management department of the nuclear industry, the Second Ministry of Machinery also obtained some secret information.

   Compared with the information of the Tenth Academy, the date in Liu Bosheng's hand is a little more recent.

  For example, the report on his desk at this time.

  The report recorded in detail that Mao Xiong's Sakharov had already started to build a super hydrogen bomb development team last Wednesday.

  The entire project is code-named AN602, with an equivalent of 100 million tons. Some materials have been shipped into Xindi Island over the weekend.

  With Mao Xiong's technical strength and resource accumulation, it is very likely that Ivan the Great will come out before the end of the year.

  People like Lao Guo and others may just have a vague premonition at this time, and there are even different opinions on the location of the accident.

  For example, some speculated that it was a native chicken, while others said it was Italian—because both places have missile bases across the sea.

   Some people think it will be Germany, after all, the Berlin Wall is just about to be erected there.

  But for Liu Jie and higher-level bosses, they are very clear about one thing.

That is.

  The next vortex is not in Europe, but in

North America!

   As for the time when the accident occurred, it should be within one to three years—depending on the situation of the other two hooligans.

   Therefore, compared with Lao Guo and others, the pressure on Liu Bosheng's shoulders is countless times greater.

   But now

  A small variable seems to have appeared.

  I saw Liu Bosheng lowered his eyebrows, wrote the word "Han Li" on the paper, and circled it.

Of course.

  As the head of the second machine department, Liu Bosheng is naturally not so naive as to think that this variable can speed up the development of nuclear weapons.

   It is even more impossible to pin your hopes on someone because of these small things.

  At this moment, what he was thinking was actually another idea:

   If that weather doppler radar is indeed true, something might try to operate

   Like, right?

Of course.

   All of this will have to wait for Sun Junren to have a result.

   And at the same time that Liu Bosheng was waiting for Sun Junren's answer.

  Longyou Province thousands of kilometers away.

   Jincheng.

   This city, famous for its unreal beef ramen, is far less prosperous than later generations.

   Today's Jincheng City is full of large black tile roofs, no more than one or two stories high, or all kinds of towering factory chimneys.

  The dust on the aisle was blown up by the wind, connecting with the gray air in the sky, forming a vicious array of dust.

  There is no clear dividing line between the city and the outside. Looking around, it seems that the loess **** in the distance is also connected with the city.

   And in the western suburbs of this city, in a place called Chaijiachuan, there is also a factory area that is no different from other factories in the city.

  This plant is called an oil refinery and chemical equipment plant to the outside world, and it mainly refines and supplies oil needed for various industrial equipment.

But in fact.

  There is also a number behind this factory, called

  504 factory.

   That's right.

  504 factory.

  It is also one of the three major nuclear weapons development bases mentioned before, the Jincheng Uranium Enrichment Plant used to provide enriched uranium.

   Right now.

  Wang Jiefu, the director of Factory 504, was leading a few young men and women on a path in the factory area with solemn expressions.

   A group of people walk very fast.

   Apart from a few simple words like "Go here", "Turn left ahead", and "Be careful of the steps", no one spoke during the whole process.

ten minutes later.

  Wang Jiefu and others stopped outside a low building with a large area.

  An orderly who had been waiting here for a long time quickly opened the door. Wang Jiefu made a gesture of invitation, and quickly walked into the house with several people.

   This is an open room with an area of ​​about 300 square meters. The surrounding walls have only been painted briefly, and many gray and white patches can be seen.

  The room is divided into two by a piece of glass from the middle. Inside the glass is a production line with many machines.

   Most of these machines are fairly primitive, looking like concrete mixers, but a few are fairly advanced.

  There are more than 20 busy operators standing outside the glass. They are wearing blue work jumpsuits and dealing with various matters. From time to time, there are several communication sounds:

   "Xiao Lin, how is the preparation of the power supply? This time the power supply must not make mistakes again."

   "Where's the nitric acid? One hundred more nitric acid. No, two hundred kilograms!"

   "All the values ​​of uranium dioxide are full, brother Zhang, please check the valve, if there is no problem, I will sign the operation work order!"

   "Is the carry counter ready? I can only see a very faint green light here"

   "It's been set up a long time ago. Low light is an old problem of Maoxiong's equipment. Maoxiong's expert said when he left, don't worry about it."

   While everyone was talking.

  Wang Jiefu led several men and women to a middle-aged man with thinning hair and a little fat:

   "Old Yang, comrades from the Institute of Atomic Energy have arrived."

  The middle-aged man was originally instructing the positioning of an elliptical device, but he couldn't help but stop when he saw this, and he let out an oh.

   Then he turned his head sideways and looked at the crowd with his left eye open.

  Seeing this, Wang Jiefu sighed in his heart, patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder twice, and said to the rest of the men and women:

   "Several, let me introduce you."

   "This is Comrade Yang Chengzong, the deputy director of the Yanjing Uranium Research Institute. He is now assisting in radioactive research at our base. He is now in charge of the entire project."

   "Old Yang, this is Comrade Qian Gaoyun from the observation team. This is Comrade Pei Lisheng and this is Comrade Huo Yuhao (there is such a person in the observation team)."

  Qian Gaoyun is a man with a Chinese face. He immediately stretched out his hand when he heard Yang Chengzong's name, and said with some reverence:

   "Comrade Chengzong, I have admired you for a long time. Back then, you made a big face in our country because of the uranyl nitrate incident!"

   "I wanted to visit you when you were in Yanjing before, but unfortunately I haven't been able to meet you because of confidentiality rules. I didn't expect to realize my dream in Jincheng today."

  Yang Chengzong just smiled politely when he heard the words, and shook hands with Qian Gaoyun:

   "Comrade Gao Yun, it's absurd."

  The uranyl nitrate incident mentioned by Qian Gaoyun happened seven years ago. At that time, the whole country was mobilizing to find uranium ore, and many people in the world knew about it.

   So soon.

   Several Hebrew businessmen visited Yanjing, claiming that they had mastered a batch of enriched uranium and could sell it to rabbits.

  Facing the visit of the Hebrew merchants at that time, the senior management of the rabbit still attached great importance to it.

  Because many Hebrews participated in the "Manhattan Project" responsible for developing the atomic bomb, and even the plan leader Oppenheimer was a Hebrew.

  In addition, among the Hebrews, there are bigwigs like Einstein. It can be said that they have a great say in the manufacture of nuclear weapons.

  The intelligence and resources obtained by them still have a high degree of credibility.

   More critically.

  In 1950, a big event happened across the sea:

   At that time in order to simulate the bombing of the main enemy city.

  A B-36 bomber carrying a nuclear warhead carried out a mission from Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, to Carswell Air Force Base, Texas.

  At that time, it was carrying a Mark 4 atomic bomb with equivalent yield to that of the Nagasaki explosion. It contained a large amount of uranium and a large amount of conventional high-energy explosives, but lacked the plutonium core needed to actually trigger a nuclear explosion.

   However after takeoff.

  The bomber encountered an unexpected situation, ice gradually began to accumulate on the fuselage, the engine caught fire and shut down.

  Finally before the plane made an emergency landing.

  The crew followed military protocol prohibiting potential hostile forces from using the weapon (actually for fear of killing themselves in an atomic bomb explosion), and dropped its payload into the Pacific Ocean at an altitude of approximately 2,438 meters.

  Similar situations have happened many times later, and as of 2023, at least a dozen nuclear warheads have disappeared.

  So the rabbits suspected that what the Hebrew businessman had was the enriched uranium of the nuclear bomb, and it was impossible to say that they were not moved.

  But at that time, there was no heavy isotope mass spectrometer necessary to measure the content of uranium-235 in China, and the rabbits couldn't be sure whether the news was true or not.

  Later, after many discussions and resolutions, the task of inspecting enriched uranium fell to Yang Chengzong——Yang Chengzong was one of the few radioactive researchers in China at that time, and in a sense he could be regarded as no one else.

  Yang Chengzong also showed extraordinary ability after taking over this task, and found a new way to detect it according to the principle of radioactive transformation.

  Finally, Yang Chengzong discovered that what the Hebrews wanted to sell to the rabbits was not enriched uranium at all, but uranyl nitrate.

  Its uranium-235 isotope content is only equivalent to that of natural uranium ore, and it cannot reach the concentration of weapon-grade uranium-235 at all.

  So the lies of the Hebrews have been exposed so far.

   But unfortunately.

  The hero Yang Chengzong was injured during the repair process of the radium radiation source in Xiehe Hospital, which caused his right eye to be completely blind a few years later, and his left eye also suffered from severe cataract in his later years.

   Now Yang Chengzong can only tilt his head sideways when looking at people, and the whole process is very difficult.

   After a while.

   Wait for everyone to say hello.

  Wang Jiefu glanced at the running equipment, then glanced at the watch on his hand, and said:

   "Okay everyone, our time is limited, why not start now."

   "Check it out."

Note:

   Spend a huge amount of money (200 yuan) to customize a few ax keychains. Let's play a lottery when you get there. Let me study how to draw.
