Chapter 701 Northwest Comprehensive R&D Base
After more than an hour of driving, the convoy finally came down from the provincial road and turned into a special road leading directly to the rocket test launch site. The rocket experimental launch site is actually not far from the provincial road, and it will take more than ten minutes to drive there. It is not open to the public and belongs to the technology research and development center of Haoyu Technology in the northwest.
Originally, it was just a rocket launch experiment center located in the desert, but later Wu Hao saw that it was good, so he moved some experimental projects that were more dangerous or impossible to carry out in the city.
For example, the Biology and Life Sciences Research Center, which focuses on cutting-edge technologies in biology and life sciences.
The lab had to be isolated from the outside world, and the desert was the ideal barrier.
In the future, if they want to make a breakthrough in the field of biotechnology, they must engage in some high-risk project research.
So it is necessary to build such a laboratory, far away from human beings, away from natural ecosystems, for some research in the field of plants and animals.
In this way, even if there is an accident in the laboratory in the future, these test items will not spread out and affect humans and nature.
For example, biological experts use genetic technology to breed a new genetically modified plant, and it cannot be allowed to flow out until it is safe enough not to cause harm to our humans and the natural environment.
In cities and densely populated areas, if this kind of plant is allowed to flow out, it may grow on a large scale and even cause ecological disasters.
And in this desert that is inaccessible to people, even a desert with rare creatures, it will be much safer.
For another example, some of the heavy machinery research projects carried out by Wu Hao, such as a large unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that Wu Hao is working on, is a very good place for research and experimental flying.
In fact, there is also an airport runway, which is only used for experiments. It's just that this airport has not yet passed the approval certification, and foreign planes cannot take off and land here.
Moreover, the airspace where they are located also belongs to the airspace controlled by the military that is not open, and it is very difficult to open up a route.
Wu Hao and the others are also in close communication with the military, trying to promote this matter, but the progress is relatively slow, I heard that it is because the air above here belongs to the training airspace of the Air Force fighters, and it is difficult to open up to the outside world.
However, according to Wu Hao's close relationship with the military, the military is also actively studying and coordinating this matter, and I believe that it will not take long to get results.
In addition, there are other heavy equipment and important items that need to be kept secret for the time being.
So after more than a year, this place has changed a lot. The first is that the footprint has been expanded several times and divided into zones according to function.
In addition to the study area, there are also living quarters, and the facilities in the living quarters are already very complete. Because it is more difficult to build a house in the desert, the houses here are built from the mainland and directly transported for installation, a bit like a simple board house, and a bit like a modular container house.
And the layout is very good, the facilities are perfect, and it is very popular with everyone.
The same is true for several large factories, where steel components are produced in the mainland and then transported for installation.
It is also because of this that the construction and development here will be so rapid, and it has changed a lot in just one year.
Around the perimeter of the entire site, around this ring of solar panels, the entire base is powered by this.
The phones from these solar panels will be stored directly in a large storage station assembled from a new type of lithium battery for use at the site.
As for the drinking water problem of the base, it has also been solved, from the initial reliance on water storage trucks to transport water, to the current 50-centimeter steel water pipeline diverting water from hundreds of kilometers of rivers, and bringing together a huge artificial lake in the base.
Relying on sufficient water sources, the base relies on intelligent unmanned tree planting vehicles to plant drought-tolerant trees around the base 24 hours a day.
Because of the water supply, the survival rate of these drought-tolerant trees around is very high, and there are also some desert drought-tolerant weeds on the ground, and even hares and birds appear, which also makes this barren land initially have vitality.
As for the daily necessities and logistical supplies, they are transported by road, and they travel back and forth from the capital of the autonomous prefecture to the base every day, and special personnel are responsible for them. There are some materials that are not available locally, and intelligence is carried out from Anxi or other countries.
Even for the convenience of employees' life and work, the base also coordinated with operators to set up 5G base stations and optical fiber networks at the base, so as to achieve high-speed Internet access.
Therefore, the employees who live here are actually the same as living in a big city, and there is no inconvenience. If you want to go back, you can call it a plane back to rest for a week, and then come back to work.
The convoy stopped in a small plaza in the center of the base, where the people in charge had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Wu Hao and them getting out of the car, these people crowded up.
Seeing this, Wu Hao shook hands with these people in turn, and said unhappily: "Didn't I say it, you don't have to take it, why don't you listen." This hot day is still waiting under the sun, what kind of formalism is high. ”
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Yu Chengwu, who was the leader, hurriedly explained with a smile: "Mr. Wu, you have been traveling for a long time, and you finally came to our Northwest R&D Center to inspect the work, we have to greet it, this is at least etiquette."
Besides, we have passed on your words, and the big guys who came to pick you up are all voluntary, and we didn't organize it, which shows that our big guys miss you. ”
Hearing Yu Chengwu's words, Wu Hao's face improved a lot, and then looked at everyone's tanned skin, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "Look at you people, you forget everything when you get to work." Didn't I have someone buy you sunscreen and toiletries, but they didn't work.
It's sunny, will your wife and children let you in after you go back? ”
Hahahaha......
Hearing his words, everyone laughed.
Yu Chengwu said with a smile: "I sent it, and I used it, but I forgot about it." And the big old man doesn't pay attention to these, so that's it. ”
Wu Hao shook his head when he heard this: "This is not good, your image and temperament also represent the company's image and temperament, so this appearance is still very important."
Moreover, many of you are still single, and you don't even have a girlfriend, so you have to spend a few months here, and how will you find a girlfriend when the time comes.
So, you people can't be careless, you have to be the first to set an example and an example, so that these other young people can follow you.
To put it bluntly, we are all brothers under our hands, and they have all suffered together, so we can't watch them find a girlfriend and fight singles. ”
Hehehehe......
