He slept until seven in the morning and rushed to the research institute.
The moment he entered the research institute, he was greeted by Professor Hoppes from the new composite material laboratory.
“Professor Raymond, you’re here.”
Raymond quickly got into work mode. “Professor Hoppes, what’s wrong? Is there a problem with the experimental process?”
Professor Hoppes nodded. He said solemnly, “General Raymond, take a look here. According to our calculations, the titanium alloy composite can only be made to 121 millimeters at most. If you want to improve further, you can only use another set of manufacturing techniques. However, if you use this set of manufacturing techniques, the hardness can not be guaranteed. It is very difficult to withstand the pressure underwater.”
Raymond took the documents and read them patiently.
A moment later, he said, “Professor Hoppes, don’t be anxious. Let everyone carry out the hardness test first. I’ll go and modify this plan first.”
As he spoke, Raymond took the documents and turned around to walk towards his own laboratory.
This temporary laboratory belonged to Raymond alone.
There was no equipment inside. Other than a few thick stacks of draft papers piled in a corner that was almost as tall as the room, a few supercomputers used for calculation, and the relevant staff, there was nothing else.
The supercomputer was to help Raymond’s brain research institute calculate together.
And the draft papers on the ground were Raymond’s results for so many days.
“Professor Raymond.”
The staff greeted him.
Raymond stepped on the draft papers and quickly walked to the table. He swept the draft papers on the table onto the ground.
He picked up the draft papers at the side and kept writing formulas and other data on it.
After he finished writing, Raymond handed it to the staff at the side. “Calculate this data according to the formula I wrote. There must be no mistakes.”
“Yes, General Raymond.”
Raymond still lowered his head. He only gave the staff a part of the data. He needed to use the brain research institute to calculate the more critical data.
“General Raymond, the spiral engine. If it is changed to a jet engine, its range will reach…” At this time, Professor Thorpe also walked in with a piece of information.
Seeing Raymond busy, Professor Thorpe immediately prepared to walk out.
“Professor Thorpe, give me the information,” Raymond said without raising his head.
Professor Thorpe stopped in his tracks. “It’s okay. The problem isn’t that. My research team should be able to solve it.”
These days, these old scientists all knew that Professor Raymond had worked hard.
They might as well discuss in private and try not to cause too much trouble for Professor Raymond.
Therefore, when Professor Thorpe saw that Raymond was busy, he wanted to wait for Raymond to finish his work before coming back.
Only then did Raymond raise his head and say, “Professor Thorpe, leave it to me. I do it faster.”
“Alright then, you’ve worked hard, Professor Raymond.” Professor Thorpe sighed and passed the information to Raymond.
“Professor Raymond, take care of your body. You are our core. We can’t do without you!”
Before leaving, Professor Thorpe instructed him.
Raymond was stunned. The corners of his mouth curled up. “Thank you for your concern, Sir. Don’t worry. My body is made of iron!”
Professor Thorpe laughed and said, “But no matter what, the body is the most important. If the American scientific research world has a new star like you, we old fellows can die of exhaustion with a smile!”
“You old scholars can’t die of exhaustion. If you die of exhaustion, then the entire research project will fall on me alone. I won’t be able to finish all this work, haha!” Raymond said with a laugh.
Professor Thorpe also laughed. The two of them looked at each other and didn’t say anything. They each threw themselves into their research work.
Time flashed by. Twenty-five days later.
On this day, the atmosphere in the research institute was different from the usual serious and tense atmosphere.
The researchers in the research institute were still carrying out their research work.
The scientists and researchers were all gathered in the hall.
Raymond and the Secretary of Defense were also among them.
Everyone present had thick dark circles under their eyes. They all looked a little tired.
But at this moment, their faces were filled with joy.
At this moment, Professor Thorpe had an excited expression on his face. His voice was a little shaky as he asked, “General Raymond, can we begin the assembly work?”
Raymond nodded heavily. “We have already developed a new type of titanium alloy composite material. Although it hasn’t achieved the best effect, we can still test the water!”
“The other scientists have also made significant progress in their research projects. As long as we succeed in testing the water this time, the rest of the work will be very easy!”
Raymond let out a long breath, the smile on his face was very happy.
“Good, good! That’s great!”
The Secretary of Defense Laughed Like a child.
For a full 25 days.
During these 25 days, Raymond and the group of scientists worked hard, working day and night at the forefront of the scientific research project.
Now, they had finally achieved great results!
It was time to test the water!
One had to know that it only took a short twenty-five days to develop and test the water!
Although not all of the scientific research projects had been successfully developed, most of them had made great progress!
The development of the anti-ship missile was nearing its end. Only the last scientific problem had not been solved.
The anti-submarine torpedo project and the fourth-generation nuclear power system that Raymond had thought of had not been completed.
However, this did not stop the Q-Series second-generation offensive nuclear submarine from testing the water.
Moreover, the main purpose of this test was to test whether the new titanium alloy composite would be successful.
This made the scientists and staff gathered in the hall very excited.
Their hard work during this period of time could finally be carried out in the water!
Of course, they all knew in their hearts that this was all thanks to Raymond.
If it wasn’t for Raymond, there wouldn’t have been such great progress!
Thinking of this, the scientists all cast a positive gaze at Raymond.
In these 25 days, they really saw hope for the American scientific research community.
Raymond really had the chance to carry the banner of the American scientific research community!
“Good, then start the assembly immediately! Prepare to test the waters!”
The Secretary of Defense was very excited.
After saying that, the entire research institute became busy again.
Raymond and the scientists also joined in the assembly work one after another.
But at this time, each and every one of them was filled with excitement.
Five hours later, the entire assembly work was completed.
The original Q-Series first-generation nuclear submarine had been replaced with a new layer of armor. The new titanium alloy composite material glowed with a silver light, taking advantage of the moment in front of everyone’s eyes.
Everyone looked at the brand new Q-Series second-generation nuclear submarine.
The joy in their hearts could not be expressed in words.
“Everyone, after this period of hard work, we have finally welcomed the moment to witness the success of the new titanium alloy composite material. It will depend on this test!”
