The quantum communication experiment was a great success. Chen Xiao appointed Guo Can as the CEO of quantum communication. Although Guo Can is not very good at management, there is no problem. With a professional team and a professional person as CEO, at least there will be no problems with the technical direction.
It would be a joke if laymen were allowed to lead experts.
The company's next development direction is similar to what was expected, with the focus being on reducing communication costs and achieving civilian use as soon as possible.
Recently, everyone has improved the distribution efficiency of quantum entanglement. The same base station can process more information. If the progress on the energy side improves, nothing will be a problem. The principle has been worked out.
In addition to civilian applications, quantum communication also has a more important task, which is to arrange it in the armed forces. Chen Xiao first chose to apply quantum communication to hunting drones.
The field of weapons has always been a testing ground for the latest technologies. Many leading technologies are developed in weapons and then transferred to civilian use.
If it can even adapt to the battlefield, then it will be no problem for this technology to be used by ordinary people. For example, microwave ovens are the application of radar technology.
Quantum computing systems and quantum communication systems all require specific chips to be used as receivers to operate normally. When placed on a hunting drone, they need to be miniaturized, and fluid dynamics must be considered at the same time, so as not to hinder the original function of the drone.
Performance, Bernoulli's equation is there, if you mess around with it, the plane will easily crash.
The modification work was carried out intensively for a week before the results were produced, but no one could say how far it would go. It had to carry out an ultra-long-distance cruise mission. There were too many restrictions on doing it in the Xia Kingdom, so I had to let it go.
Do it in South Africa.
The hunting drone was eventually handed over to the security department, but Wang Xiang got there first. He was a military fan himself, and the stakes were very important, so Chen Xiao asked him to directly participate in the experimental project of hunting the drone.
"It's started, right? It's up to me to take control!" Wang Xiang couldn't wait.
The experimenter readily handed over the control to him, put on Zemeng's wearable device, and the drone's view came into view. The boundless sea was beautiful, and the line between the sea and the sky looked so dreamy.
"You didn't turn on the automatic cruise system, did you?" Wang Xiang wanted to control it by himself, but it would be too uncomfortable to just watch without doing anything.
"There is a preset path, but it doesn't matter. If you directly control it, it will adjust back to manual mode. You can drive it as you like without falling off."
Wang Xiang was speechless. This experimenter was too good at chatting, but he couldn't argue with him about this matter. In Changtian Technology, the technical people were all treasures, and their salaries were higher than those at the same level.
Be respected.
"The response is so sensitive, there is almost no frustration. In the past, there was a delay of 0.5 seconds. I relied solely on the powerful computer performance to cope with it. Now it is completely different!" Wang Xiang soon discovered something unusual. The drone responded quickly.
The calculation speed is fast and the instructions can be understood better. It seems that this is the power of the quantum system.
Moreover, you must know that the place where the order was issued was in Xia State, and the plane took off in South Africa.
But after flying for ten minutes, Wang Xiang got tired of it: "Where are we flying to?"
"In Somali waters, automatic cruise can be turned on. We will try it out soon."
Wang Xiang nodded, took off the wearable device, and got busy with work first and will come back later.
"Continue to observe and tell me if anything happens." After saying that, Wang Xiang went to do other things.
The patrol mission lasted for several days, and no abnormalities were found. Now there are several hunting drones that can perform all-weather patrols.
It is summer in the Somali waters. The maritime climate is complex and changeable, the weather is more violent than before, and violent storms occur from time to time. Therefore, traditional communication methods often fail, and this is the best test site.
On this day, there was a Dutch-registered merchant ship on the sea, the Kono, sailing along the coastline.
To be honest, they are far enough away from the sea just to avoid pirates, but the destination is Australia, so they have to walk like this no matter what.
"Damn it! Is there a boat over there?" Suddenly, the seaman responsible for the observation shouted loudly. When he looked through the telescope, he saw several ships heading here in the distance. The ships that came were actually not too small.
It's just that this one is in the 50,000-ton class, so those ships appear relatively small.
The observer's roar instantly attracted everyone's attention. All the crew members became nervous, and even those who were sleeping got up. Some people pulled fire guns and connected fire hydrants, while others picked up fire axes, brooms, kitchen knives, and fire extinguishers, all ready to stand by.
.
The captain asked the first mate to open the hidden weapons arsenal and take out guns and ammunition, but such things are strictly controlled in every country, and they could not get weapons that were too powerful.
Besides, this is actually a cruel business. If the ships can all have powerful heavy firepower, then who will ask for help? This is a big business, but there are always unfortunate ships that are robbed, people are kidnapped, and even
Lose your life.
In some places, small armed groups have even formed. When there are pirates, they fight pirates to collect money from the freight companies. When there are no pirates, they become pirates themselves.
The water here is very deep. It is not ruled out that someone tipped the pirates off and they could share the money afterwards.
The pirate approached the ship with an AK47. He didn't mean to smear anyone. This thing has the lowest level of fraud.
The pirates shouted "stop! money!" Everyone can understand these words.
The crew did not speak. The captain immediately issued a request for help. The answer he received was not optimistic. The convoy was far away from here and it would take some time to arrive. In addition, the current weather is very bad and the positioning is not accurate. If the weather
Well, there are still plane searches and guidance in advance, now it almost depends on luck.
"Damn it! We'll be cold when they come here!"
"Why couldn't you have warned earlier?"
"The visibility is less than 300 meters, and I'm not Michael. I can stand on it and see!"
"Mom! I want to go home!"
"Hurry up and send a message to the nearby US warships for help!"
The Kono's distress signal was received by the hunting drone at the same time. The experimenter did not dare to give the order and reported it to Wang Xiang.
It was two o'clock in the middle of the night. When Wang Xiang heard this, he immediately stopped feeling sleepy and came to the laboratory with Chen Xiao and others.
Chen Xiao searched all over the world and found one of the few places where the combined use of quantum communications and drones could be tested, and Somalia was one of them.
This is a place where you don't care about anything.
Chen Xiao gave Wang Xiang a look that meant he could do what he wanted.
The hunting drone flew rapidly towards the preset route, three times faster than cruising.
Within ten minutes, we saw the huge Kono. At this time, the pirates had already launched the rope. They were very smart and drove the ship around. The Kono was too big and the crew could not cover everything. There would always be flaws, some
The pirates had reached the side of the ship and started shooting.
The crew also shot, but the shooting skills of these two groups were obviously not very good, and their accuracy depended on their faith.
"What is this? A plane! The Americans are here so soon?" The crew suddenly saw the light from the drone in the sky and cheered.
"Hurry up and evacuate this ship, or use force!" The hunting drone issued a warning, and its light was directed at the climbing pirates. If it were not to warn this group of people, the hunting drone would not even mention the light.
The sound won't be too loud.
The pirates didn't pay attention to this drone at all. It was not very big, so what was there to be afraid of? The pirates standing on the boat even started attacking the drone, and some even launched RPGs.
"Holy crap! You guys are really stubborn, are you going to die?" The laboratory staff looked at the picture and were very excited!
This is another actual battle of Changtian Technology’s hunting drone.
Wang Xiang gave the order to retaliate decisively, and a cruise missile was ejected.
It hit the pirate ship very accurately, and the pirates fell into the sea one after another.
At this time, the pirates on the boat fought back wildly, and several rockets flew over at the same time. Fortunately, the signal transmission was fast enough, and they avoided it after detection.
"Can you put down your weapons now? You still have a boat to go back to!" Wang Xiang did not kill them all. Killing people is not a pleasant thing.
The pirates were frightened, jumped into the sea one after another, climbed onto the remaining boats, and quickly disappeared into the sea.
"Long live!" The crew clapped their hands and laughed happily. Their nerves had been tense, but now they could finally relax.
"Thank you! Are you from the American Navy?" the captain shouted through the loudspeaker. It was really dangerous today, and almost hundreds of people had to be killed here.
The drone did not answer. It is currently conducting a secret mission and cannot respond casually.
The hunting drone circled the ship to check and once again confirmed that no pirates were hiding, and then passed through the violent storm and disappeared into the dark sea.
The drone began to return at this time. There was really not much energy left, but it was still enough to return to South Africa.
The battle went very quickly, and by the time the U.S. Navy arrived, the drone had already gone far away.
After both parties checked, they discovered that the drone was not from the United States!
According to the descriptions of the members of the Kono, the US Navy drew the general shape of the drone. It is impossible to have video information. The crew is desperate and scared to death. Who has the heart to record a video?
The American fleet was shocked!
No country other than the United States has set up drone bases in and around Somalia.
In other words, even if there were drones, they would have flown over from at least two to three thousand kilometers away.
Which country's drones can fly more than 3,000 kilometers?
And it was not detected by radar.
The United States was shocked and quickly turned on all radars and searched frantically.
"Is the radar on? We must not let it escape this time!"
"Don't worry! It's been shared!"
Sure enough, I found it.
But it wasn't found by radar.
Found it with the naked eye.
"There!" The soldiers on the warship finally found the target with binoculars.
The speed of the drone was very fast. It was not because I was afraid of these planes, but because I didn’t want to attract attention, so I returned home and then replaced other drones to take over.
The drone was almost out of the destroyer's detection range, and the United States immediately activated satellite detection authority to track the drone.
"Oh my god, this drone has traveled nearly three thousand kilometers, why hasn't it stopped yet?"
"Is this true range? Including the distance it came from and the distance it cruises, how many kilometers is it?"
"Chase! We must chase!"
We are chasing a drone here, and the signal has been detected long ago. Wang Xiang took this group of people for a walk to tease the American radar and satellites. Unexpectedly, they were quite patient.
"The stealth function is activated, we have had enough fun." The drone suddenly disappeared from radar and satellites, and there was a lot of curses from the United States.
In view of the emergence of armed drones of unknown strength, the US Navy is panicking, which can already threaten its armed dominance.
"If this drone turns off its signal and enters the hinterland of the United States with stealth or sneaks next to our warships, we will have no ability to fight back at all! So what should we do?"
"I'm more concerned about who made it. It's so outrageous! Is it a furry bear? They always have surprises for us!"
"Shouldn't the focus be on how to deal with them?"
"How can I deal with it? I can't even find it!"
The U.S. Navy held an internal meeting and failed to come up with a clue, so it could only report the situation to the Pentagon.
"Do you think this drone looks familiar? Have you seen it somewhere?"
"It looks familiar to me too, but I can't remember it for a while."
Suddenly, the air force general shouted: "I remember! It's from Changtian Technology! At that time, we sent a plane to intercept Chen Xiao's special plane, and these drones came out to fight with us!"
At this time, everyone remembered Chen Xiao's trip to South Africa. Those drones were highly similar to this one, but their performance this time was even more abnormal.
It seems that only Changtian Technology can develop such a powerful technology.
"What kind of fight? Your Air Force is just being abused. So much money is spent on the Air Force, but I don't see any suppression of your combat effectiveness!"
"Is your navy's military expenditure still low? Is there any way you can do it?"
"The navy is large and its military expenditure is large, but on average it is not as high as yours!"
There was a lot of quarrel at the scene, no one wanted their team to be suppressed, and they all wanted to get as much money as possible.
Relevant departments of the U.S. military got angry: "Who among you is sure to overwhelm Changtian Technology? Give him all the military expenses! Say it! Why don't you say it anymore!"
Everyone was silent at the same time. There was no way to restrict Changtian Technology through armed means. Even the meeting could not guarantee whether it was safe or not. These people always felt that mayfly drones were eavesdropping around them, so they had to be careful about what they said.
Otherwise, you have to find a fully enclosed conference room. Thanks to Changtian Technology, the United States has made great progress in security measures.
The performance of hunting drones in Somalia has made ships in the entire area feel safer than ever before, but this has undoubtedly touched the cake of the pirates. Those pirates are complaining endlessly. They are a group of lazy people who do not know how to farm or hunt.
Fish, without the job of robbing, the income will be even more difficult.
It's a pity that no one will sympathize with such people. Even if they are told the truth, they will not be able to take revenge on Changtian Technology.
After so many mission observations, the quantum communication team has confirmed that the technology is mature enough to be popularized.
The next step is formal mass production, and Changtian Technology has begun to invest a lot of resources in this field.
