Bao Zixuan really can't give any specific answer about the future aerospace industry wants to develop in that direction. After all, at the time of crossing, Musk's rocket company; just realized rocket recovery. And after many launches, the cost of rocket launch has been reduced to the point where it is the envy of various aerospace powers. It proves that the technology is absolutely feasible. If the Black Cloud Group wants to enter the field of rocket research and development; it will inevitably develop in this direction.
In fact, humans started from the US landing on the moon in 1969. In the next 50 years, rocket technology has not made much progress. Even if the rocket can be recovered and used again; that is nothing but an improvement in software and control systems. There is not much in-depth research and development on rocket thrust and working principle, and it seems that it has entered a bottleneck period.
But directly making the flying saucer achieve interstellar flight, this aspect has only appeared in film and television works. Therefore, it is really difficult to give a positive answer; after all, everything is just an expectation and a prospect.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It's really hard to answer this, after all, Heiyun Group has no relevant R&D plans in the aerospace field. Aerospace is fundamentally different from aviation, at least the technical difficulty is a geometric increase. Therefore, I can't give it yet. A clear answer, but if there is a chance in the future, I think Heiyun Group will try it.”
"As for whether the flying saucer can achieve interstellar flight, an accurate answer cannot be given at present. However, after wind tunnel tests and other comprehensive evaluations; as long as the engine power is sufficient, the speed can reach the second cosmic speed; there is no problem in flying to the moon. . But to land on Mars, more preparations are needed.”
"But when the time is ripe, or the technology meets the requirements. I think the Black Cloud Group and myself; I am still willing to try this."
There is no point in denying it, after all, the Black Cloud Group is ready to enter the aerospace field. Moreover, the major military giants in the United States have their own aerospace departments. If the Black Cloud Group wants to develop these, it will not have much problem. Many countries may want them to do so; spaceflight is a very expensive and energy-intensive thing.
Even the mighty United States can't bear to land on the moon; the Soviet Union's space competition with the United States has almost exhausted its national strength.
Heiyun Group is just a company, even if it is very profitable; but for aerospace engineering, it is also stretched. Therefore, regarding aerospace engineering, it does not currently arouse the fear of major powers.
However, everything must have a degree. Once the Black Cloud Group has mastered the advanced aerospace technology, it is estimated that European and American countries will have different ideas. Of course, these are for later!
In fact, this Paris Air Show has a very meaningful thing. The Huaxia delegation came to France for the first time to participate in the air show. Combined with the participation in the Olympic Games a year ago, it can be said that after the reform and opening up, the exchanges between mainland China and the world, especially the connection between the European and American powers, are gradually increasing.
As an aviation professional, Bao Zixuan of course knows that in 1985, China Aviation Corporation organized a delegation to participate in the Paris Air Show for the first time, and exhibited various aircraft models and pictures reflecting the development of China's aviation industry.
The real show of strength is the exhibition two years later. On June 11, 1987, Huaxia Aviation Industry participated in the Paris Air Show for the first time with a real aircraft. Huaxia Airlines presented 19 types of aircraft, missiles and engines in France. These include JJ 7, Qiang 5iii, Yun 12, Yun 8, Zhi 9, Thunderbolt 2, etc. It is worth mentioning that the JJ-7 is the first supersonic fighter trainer independently developed by Huaxia based on the modified design of the J-72 aircraft.
Even if there is no delegation to participate in the exhibition, reporters will come to interview. After all, paying attention to international aviation trends; knowing the real strength of other countries is also finding your own shortcomings.
The Xinhua News Agency reporter stood up and asked, "Hello, Mr. Bao Zixuan! I'm a reporter from Xinhua News Agency. What is your opinion on this first time Huaxia participated in the Paris Air Show? Or do you have any valuable suggestions for yourself? comrade."
Hearing this, everyone held their breath; they all wanted to hear how Bao Zixuan commented on Huaxia Aviation Industry. China mainland has experienced rapid economic development in recent years, and the level of science and technology has skyrocketed. Perhaps it is not a threat to developed countries in Europe and the United States; but at this speed, it will be a matter of time to catch up.
As the first investor in mainland China, Bao Zixuan has a very good understanding of mainland technology, especially the level of aviation industry. This is a good opportunity, at least to figure out what the general level is.
Bao Zixuan was also a little embarrassed, and he really didn't know how to answer for a while. In fact, in order to avoid suspicion, this time, except for the two exhibition halls of Heiyun and United Airlines, the rest did not go anywhere. Helping fellow comrades will never just do the work of showing. But now everyone is looking at him and must answer truthfully.

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "I have invested in some factories in mainland China; but they are all industrial enterprises such as home appliances, toys, automobiles, and basic materials. At present, I really don't know much about the level of aviation industry in mainland China."
"But I think China mainland has already imported aero engines from the UK, so the overall level should not be very bad. As for the others, it's really hard to answer. I'm an engineer; without a factual basis, I won't make any judgments. Evaluation."
Although the answer is simple, there is still a lot of information in it. That is, as early as 1975, the British Rolls-Royce Company had reached a cooperation with China mainland to sell engine technology and production lines to each other.
Therefore, if there is any cooperation in the aviation field between Heiyun Group and China mainland, it is understandable. After all, British companies have already cooperated with it ten years ago. Is it possible that only state officials are allowed to set fires; common people are not allowed to light lamps? There seems to be no such truth in the world.
At the same time, it also reassured European and American companies. After all, the UK sold to Huaxia Aviation Engine; it was not a particularly successful transaction, but the effect did not meet expectations. From the side, it shows that the current aviation industry in mainland China is not very mature.
The question needs to be continued, and it can only be regarded as a small episode.
The São Paulo newspaper is the newspaper with the largest circulation in Brazil; it was founded in 1921.
South America's international status is better than Africa's at best. There are no developed countries in itself, and the economic development is relatively backward. However, Brazil has developed rapidly in recent years; at least the aviation industry has made great progress.
The Sao Paulo newspaper reporter stood up and asked: "Mr. Bao Zixuan, hello! I am a Sao Paulo newspaper reporter. As far as I know, the first external customer of Heiyun Aviation Engine is Embraer. I don't know how you evaluate Brazil. Aviation industry; or in other words, there are still places worth digging deeply in the future.”
To put it bluntly, this is also advertising Embraer. The meaning is very obvious, but we use the black cloud engine, at least in terms of energy saving and emission reduction, the performance will not be bad. And even engines of more than 400 kN can be produced, not to mention the small aero-engines for regional flights.
Every press conference will be the protagonist, and everyone has come to see it. Even if it is uncomfortable, it can only stand up; who makes it less famous and more recognized by the public!
Bao Zixuan replied directly in Portuguese: "First of all, I really want to thank Embraer. If it hadn't been for their strong support back then, maybe the Heiyun Aero Engine Department would not have gone so smoothly."
"Of course, I should thank my senior, Mr. Silva, the chief engineer of the Paris Aviation Industry. We have talked for a long time, and we all agree with each other's ideas and values. Therefore, I personally designed an aero-engine. , installed on the aircraft of Embraer. At present, the effect is very good, and UUkanshu has a huge advantage at least in the field of regional aviation."
"It's hard to comment too much on the Brazilian aviation industry. Because Brazil has academic leaders who know the aviation industry better than I do and want to develop in that direction; it's a bit embarrassing to say it."
Silva, the chief engineer of the Brazilian aviation industry, has a very high status in the country. At least people can give up Boeing's generous treatment and resolutely choose to return to China; this is an amazing achievement in itself, and many people's ideological realm is really unattainable.
And now, in the field of regional aviation, Embraer is doing a great job. Therefore, there is really no need to compete with Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, and Airbus; and now United Airlines is competing for the mainline passenger aircraft, especially the super-large passenger aircraft market.
At present, this state is very good, at least it will not threaten the core interests of any company. And the development of super passenger aircraft requires the technology and capital; Embraer does not have it. It is best not to do things that are labor-intensive, costly and thankless!
