Chapter 1059: Chapter 524: Is Academician Zhao Going to Set Me Up?_2

But soon.

An experimental apparatus had already been completely built, and a few engineers who had participated in the photon anti-gravity experiment examined it carefully to make sure everything was in order.

Now that Zhao Yi was here, there truly were no issues. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Dong Lihua took Zhao Yi on a tour of the experimental base, focusing on the newly built experimental apparatus, hoping he would provide some guidance, such as pointing out any issues, making corrections, and the like.

In this regard, Dong Lihua lacked confidence, primarily because he did not understand the principles involved.

Several top physicists had joined the team, but none of them understood the principle of photon anti-gravity. Even though Zhao Yi had shared the materials, comprehending their content was very difficult.

Several physicists who specialized in theoretical research bombarded Zhao Yi with various questions.

As Zhao Yi inspected the experimental base, he also explained things to them. After inspecting the experimental apparatus, he found no major issues.

At that moment, Dong Lihua said, "Academician Zhao, the higher-ups have said that you are a specially appointed researcher, and the entire base will cooperate with your experiment. Rest assured, we will definitely provide our full support."

"Thank you." freёwebnovel.com

Zhao Yi expressed his gratitude and then, pointing at the large apparatus in front of him, said, "First, take it apart, but there’s no need to dismantle it too thoroughly. I intend to set up the apparatus with a central turntable, allowing the entire device to achieve self-sustained levitation and spinning."

After saying this, he looked towards Dong Lihua.

Dong Lihua, with his mouth agape, did not close it for quite some time, and then, surprised, he said, "You mean... to take it apart? To set it up... But, this... We’re about to conduct the first test."

"It’s fine."

Zhao Yi said, "I am very confident that there are no issues with your apparatus, and the experiment is sure to be a success."

"But... however..." Dong Lihua found it impossible to accept. The apparatus that was so difficult to build, and without even having been tested, was now to be disassembled, and he couldn’t think of how to refuse.

It had been made very clear by the higher-ups: all staff at the experimental base had to unconditionally cooperate with Academician Zhao’s experiment.

At the current base, he was the person in overall charge, but Zhao Yi’s authority was greater than his.

How could he refuse?

If Zhao Yi made a request, simply refusing it with an excuse could have repercussions beyond Zhao Yi’s reaction; others might leak the information, claiming he refused to cooperate with the experiment...

Dong Lihua felt incredibly frustrated and reluctantly nodded, closing his eyes tight, gritted his teeth, and waved his hand, "Did you hear that? Whatever we do now, we’ll follow Academician Zhao’s lead!" He bit off the words with great force.

Then, opening his eyes and taking a deep breath, he said to Zhao Yi, "Academician Zhao, please continue explaining, in more detail, so we know what to do..."

Zhao Yi nodded and began to give instructions.

His experiment, to put it plainly, was simple: it was to make the entire anti-gravity device spin by itself once activated, powered by the turntable below.

Of course, saying it was difficult could also be true.

The anti-gravity device was simply too big, with a diameter of over forty meters, and involved a large amount of external equipment and wiring. Erecting the device alone was not easy, and achieving self-spinning was definitely a huge undertaking.

This project, upon hearing about it, clearly required a significant amount of time.

Dong Lihua could hardly bear to listen further; he felt a sharp pang of distress knowing the hard-built apparatus was to be directly ’half-dismantled’ and ’re-erected,’ without understanding the purpose, but completing the task within a month would be quite an achievement.

Dong Lihua returned to his office, feeling depressed from every angle. He simply reported back to his superiors, and couldn’t help but complain, "Our first test has to be delayed because Academician Zhao has requested to erect the experimental apparatus."

"I’ve carefully inquired with the engineers, and at the very least it will take more than three weeks, and that’s if all goes well, until the apparatus is reinstalled..."

"Blah, blah, blah~~~"

Dong Lihua went on at length, essentially saying that Zhao Yi’s arrival had delayed the testing schedule, and for reasons unknown, he abruptly requested to erect the device, preventing them from conducting tests.

He did not receive the ’desired feedback’; the upper management simply said, "Isn’t your apparatus just a recreation of the photon anti-gravity experiment? At most with some refinements."

"It’s not a problem; after all, it’s not a technical issue. Cooperation with Academician Zhao is very important."

"Anti-gravity was developed by Academician Zhao. He probably wants to conduct an important experiment; a delay in the testing schedule doesn’t matter too much."

The upper management did not mind at all.

The anti-gravity project team, officially known as the ’Anti-Gravity Aircraft Project Team,’ aimed to research anti-gravity aircraft.

He was only doing the initial work now, which was to re-create the photon anti-gravity experiment.

The recreation of the experiment was the first step in research, which seemed trivial to upper management because the original photon anti-gravity device was still operational, only relocated to another place.

Since they had a functioning anti-gravity device, conducting a test with a copy of the apparatus did not hold any special significance.

After complaining to the higher-ups, Dong Lihua felt even more depressed, but he could only suppress his feelings and continue to coordinate with Zhao Yi’s work.

In the first few days, Dong Lihua simply did not show up at the base, letting others cooperate, and every time he saw the equipment being taken apart, it really hurt him. It was only when the turntable below was completed and the reinstallation began that he showed up near the device again, took charge on-site, and kept abreast of the situation.

After more than half a month,

Zhao Yi followed the project closely, and his guidance resolved many technical issues quickly, speeding up the engineering progress.
