Chapter 1041: Chapter 515 Absolutely Impossible!_3
He sighed and continued, "That time, when the WZ-1 type engine was being adjusted, you really should have gone to see it. Then you wouldn’t be saying this now."
"How so?" He Shulin was very puzzled.
Liu Jiankun had yet to explain when a military representative next to him said, "I was there that time, and it succeeded on the first try. Just think about it, how many years did it take to adjust the Kunlun engine? The WZ-1 type engine is the most advanced, and it took just one adjustment, and it was a direct success. Afterward, it was directly put into test flights, understand?"
"If you ask me, this is just Academician Zhao’s level of expertise. What’s the point of comparing engines? What counts are airplanes?"
This statement made sense.
The design of the Warhawk-1 was indeed very complex, but without considering the engine, it was just a heap of parts put together with a control system. Its complexity would be reflected when it actually took flight, not during the equipment adjustment.
Several people who had been to the WZ-1 type engine adjustment all nodded in agreement, "Indeed, for the engine adjustment to succeed on the first try is truly remarkable."
"It’s just a minor skirmish now!"
"What’s the big deal? Manager He, what are you questioning? Would Academician Zhao commit fraud? In front of so many of us, commit fraud? Think about it with your brain, is that possible?" freēwēbnovel.com
He Shulin suddenly fell silent.
With so many people unanimously confirming the result, he carefully thought and also ruled out the possibility of ’fraud’ because there would be no benefit in committing fraud.
Zhao Yi was not only the designer of the Warhawk aircraft but also one of the world’s top scientists. He had accomplished many top-level achievements, and the design of the Warhawk aircraft was just one of them.
The ’assembly and adjustment command work’ of the Warhawk team was a ’very ordinary job’ for him. Losing it was not a big deal and would not affect his honor as a designer of the Warhawk aircraft.
So why commit fraud?
Such an adjustment would be very difficult to fake, especially since he himself was overseeing the work every day. During the adjustment process, he could see that each part was indeed operating normally, rather than being controlled in some other manner.
"Could I be wrong? Did Zhao Yi take direct command previously because he found an issue?"
"How did he discover it?"
"He had just arrived, and he knew where the problem was? Looking at the parts, he knew what needed to be changed?"
"That’s too unbelievable!" He Shulin thought with astonishment and shame.
Others were much more composed.
Those who had participated in the WZ-1 type engine adjustment had already passed the stage of astonishment. They had been surprised before, and now, seeing a similar scene, they were no longer astonished.
After their initial surprise, they had pondered carefully and concluded that Zhao Yi must have identified the problems beforehand. They did not know exactly how he found them, but maybe it was because he was the designer and he understood the engine very well. From the theoretical design to the actual assembly, the slightest issue would be apparent to him at a glance.
This was genius!
"Can ordinary people understand a genius? Let alone a genius of Zhao Yi’s caliber, even an ordinary genius is difficult to comprehend!"
"For instance, there are people who can score perfect on math and physics exams, right?"
"Some people enroll in Shuimu at fourteen?"
"Some, still young, master several languages?"
"And there are many more. Think further back, how could someone have developed the ’Theory of Relativity’ years ago, which ordinary people still can’t understand now?"
"This can’t be serious, right? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"But this is reality!"
