In 2019, NASA and Tongyong Electric jointly developed electric jet airliners in order to replace existing fuel aircraft, thereby making the passenger aircraft more environmentally friendly.
There is also a German company that has invented a fully electric engine jet two-seat aircraft that can take off and land vertically for the home aircraft market.
Because the Germanic two-seater aircraft is a small family aircraft, the flight altitude and cruising range requirements are not high, so the difficulty is naturally small.
However, the United States' electric passenger aircraft plan faces a series of difficulties.
Because the existing generators, motors, inverters, etc. are very heavy, the reason why NASA wants to cooperate with Tongyong Electric is because of Tongyong Electric's silicon carbide development technology.
After Du Qiu obtained the technology of alien civilization, he became a unique leader in the field of silicon carbide research.
After being fortunate enough to obtain their design plan through Xinghai, Du Qiu solved these problems and easily completed the development of a large electric jet vertical take-off and landing aircraft.
The Eagle's Nest can be used as an early warning command aircraft and a power generator, while the Transporter can be used as a large transport aircraft and large bomber.
The reason why Du Qiu adopted this electric jet design was not because of environmental protection, but because it could be used for vertical take-off and landing.
If it uses fuel, when taking off and landing vertically, the noise will simply announce to the world that the plane is about to land.
The electric method is different. Du Qiu has the most advanced superconducting motor, and the noise is so small that it can be ignored.
Of course, this is just a transitional plan for the aircraft designed by Du Qiu. In his mind, the truly usable aircraft is to build a planetary landing ship or transport ship like an alien civilization.
Du Qiu already knew that those transport ships used anti-gravity engine technology to allow behemoths to land freely on the planet's surface.
However, Du Qiu is still learning about this anti-gravity engine technology, and it will take some time to successfully develop it.
Hearing Xinghai's voice, Du Qiu did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at his mobile phone. There was still no response from the instant messaging software.
Ning Shuangshuang has obviously not come out from the underground training base yet. Is she venting her emotions?
"Sir, the image data transmitted by the satellite is not very clear. It may be because it is still raining heavily over there at this time and the clouds are thick."
"The rain will always stop. Anyway, the First Battalion should arrive in Boer in two hours."
While Du Qiu was talking, he called Ning Shuangshuang again.
There was a beep, and this time the video call was actually answered.
Ning Shuangshuang's image instantly appeared on the phone screen.
"Shuangshuang, you finally answered."
"Du Qiu, why did you video chat with me?"
Ning Shuangshuang's face was covered with sweat and the bangs on her forehead were wet. She must have left the underground training base. Before she had time to take a shower, she heard Du Qiu's call.
"I want to see you!" Du Qiu blurted out, and then smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I haven't made a video call with you before."
"It's okay, I know."
Ning Shuangshuang looked at Du Qiu in the video and felt that he seemed to have lost some weight, and suddenly her expression changed.
Ning Shuang covered the screen of his mobile phone and looked around. When he saw that there were no cameras nearby, he let go again.
When he spoke again, his voice was much lowered, "Du Qiu, what's going on with the big screen behind you? Are you in some control center?"
Du Qiu then remembered that Ning Shuangshuang must have seen his back to the big screen in the command hall, but he was not worried about Ning Shuangshuang knowing.
"This is my command center. By the way, did something happen to your mother?"
…
…
After ending the video call with Du Qiu, Ning Shuangshuang felt as if she was in a dream.
Du Qiu actually hired a security force to go to South Sudan to rescue his mother.
Ning Shuangshuang wisely did not ask where Du Qiu was.
Today I had a video call with Du Qiu, and Ning Shuangshuang did not intend to report it to the superiors. Anyway, the previous calls between the two were only voice and text.
You know she almost wanted to quit her job tonight.
When she heard that her mother was in trouble, Ning Shuangshuang emotionally wanted to rush to Nansudan to find and save her mother.
However, after being repeatedly dissuaded by her second uncle, rationally speaking, if she just rushed to Nansudan alone, she would not only be unable to save anyone, but would also get herself involved.
It was precisely because of this that she was extremely depressed and went to the bureau's underground training ground in the middle of the night to train like crazy to vent her anger.
Unexpectedly, Du Qiu actually made a video call to another village, telling him that he already knew about the matter and arranged for a security force to go to Nansu Dan.
He promised that he would find and rescue his mother.
At that moment, Ning Shuangshuang shed tears excitedly.
But now, Ning Shuangshuang frowned.
How did Du Qiu know that something had happened to his mother? South Sudan is the poorest landlocked country in Africa.
Not to mention the network, most of the roads are dirt roads, which turn into swamps when it rains.
Even the capital, Drukpa, is full of thatched houses and has few good roads.
In such a country, information transmission is not fast. If the Tang peacekeeping troops were not there, the news of my mother's accident would not have reached my father so quickly.
So where did Du Qiu get the news?
Also, a small team sent by the Tang State's peacekeeping force rode in armored vehicles. It took several hours in heavy rain to arrive at Boer, which is more than 100 kilometers away from Drukpa.
How should the security forces invited by Du Qiu arrive at the scene of the accident?
How will they find the hijacked medical team?
…
Questions popped up one after another, making Ning Shuangshuang upset and full of doubts.
She picked up the phone and called her second uncle Ning Yuze.
"Second uncle, Du Qiu has contacted me."
Ning Yuze was sitting at his desk, smoking cigarettes one by one.
Although it was already after midnight, something happened to his sister-in-law, especially Ning Shuangshuang, who was very emotional, which made it difficult for him to fall asleep.
Shuangshuang is a child with a very independent personality and has his own ideas about doing things. He said tonight that he would resign to save his mother. He was very worried that she would actually do so.
After Ning Shuangshuang left, he called his elder brother Ning Zehao and informed him of Ning Shuangshuang's situation.
Ning Zehao was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time before saying, "I believe she will face this matter rationally."
After hearing this, Ning Yuze couldn't help but sigh, what a father and daughter they are.
At this time, I answered Ning Shuangshuang's call and suddenly heard Ning Shuangshuang talking about Du Qiu. Then I suddenly remembered that this niece also had a boyfriend.
Listening to Ning Shuangshuang's calm voice again, Ning Yuze thought to himself, could it be that he poured out the bitter water to Du Qiu and calmed down?
Then I felt a little pity for this niece. Something happened to her mother and her boyfriend was hunted by the United States all over the world and has not returned to the country yet.
"How is Du Qiu doing now?"
"He is very good. He knows about my mother and said that he has hired a security force to go to Nansu Dan."
"What?" Ning Yuze was a little shocked. Du Qiu couldn't protect himself, so why did he do this?
Suddenly, he thought about the current sales of Mengyuan Technology's products, and immediately understood that this doctor was a wealthy owner, and it seemed that he had spent money to hire mercenaries.
"Where's the security company?" Ning Yuze asked.
"I don't know. I'm just curious. How did he know that something happened to my mother?"
"What?" Ning Yuze was shocked again, "Didn't you tell him?"
"Yes, with his current situation, why would I tell him about my mother? Wouldn't it be a waste of time for him to worry about me?"
"He has enough money to hire mercenaries, but the bullets have no holes. When the mercenaries rescue the hostages, in case of militants..."
As Ning Yuze talked, he couldn't go on. That scene was really inappropriate to predict.
"He reassured me that the medical team should be able to find the person by tomorrow at the latest. As long as he finds the person, he will be able to rescue the person safely."
Ning Yuze was speechless. His niece was also a smart person, so why did Du Qiu just say whatever he said, "We can find someone tomorrow? Isn't this too optimistic?"
No militant group has claimed responsibility for this incident. There are many tribes in South Sudan. Who knows who hijacked the medical team?"
