The first thing Liang Wencheng did when he came back was to convene the backbone and announce that Hu Jianguo's team had successfully developed a special steel to replace some key parts of the turbofan x engine.

The meeting decided that the key thermal components of the turbofan x engine would be replaced by this special steel, such as turbine guide blades at all levels and turbine working blades at all levels.

Two large pieces of metal, each slightly larger than a washbasin, are enough to produce and manufacture our working blades and turbine guide blades.

After the meeting, many backbones were extremely shocked.

"Academician Hu and his team can develop such excellent special steel."

"It's simply incredible that high-strength steel with more than five times the mechanical strength is much stronger than imported high-temperature alloys."

"At such a high melting point, it shows that it has excellent high temperature resistance. In the future, we can optimize some designs to further increase the pre-turbine temperature."

“…”

The meeting was over, and most people were not in a hurry to leave, and were talking happily.

Turn around!

No longer have to worry about the inability to meet the requirements of domestic high-temperature alloys, nor do I have to use various channels and spend a huge amount of money to try to import single crystal high-temperature alloys.

All problems should be solved.

After the meeting, the production and manufacturing of turbine blades began almost without stopping.

Process technology and production equipment are all ready-made, and they will start working immediately in an aircraft engine manufacturer or a forging workshop.

The blank of the turbine blade is a die forging piece. The blank of the blade must be forged first, and then the blades are processed one by one.

In the huge heating furnace, the temperature has risen to 1500 degrees. If it is ordinary steel, it has begun to soften at this temperature.

And the two pieces of gray-black metals did not even change their color, and they became more stable.

Several workers next to him secretly praised him. An old forging worker in his fifties said with emotion: "Oh my God, it has such excellent high temperature resistance, I have never seen it in my life."

"Yes, it's already 1500 degrees."

The technician next to him said loudly: "This is a new type of special steel, which is extremely resistant to high temperatures. We need to heat it to 2,600 degrees."

Oh my God!

There was a sound of gasping around.

It actually heated to such a high temperature.

The temperature has been rising, but fortunately this is a special electric furnace, which can reach a temperature of up to 2,800 degrees. Otherwise, it would be impossible to add this metal to a reddish state.

The temperature exceeded 2500 degrees, and the two pieces of metal in the furnace finally showed a little red sign, and rose to 2600 degrees again, which was more obvious, but it seemed not enough.

Several technicians discussed temporarily, and then unanimously decided to increase the temperature by another 100 degrees to a high temperature of 2700 degrees, which seemed to finally meet the forging process requirements.

The two pieces of metal finally turned red, one of them was clipped out and placed on the forging machine for forging.

A few hours later, the blank of the first working blade was forged, and then the second and third...

.........

The seabed is more than 3,000 meters deep.

The overlord was swimming slowly on the bottom of the sea with a giant spear, looking for possible black and gray metal as Liu Yong told him.

It has already traveled far away, almost reaching the edge of this undersea plain, and the terrain is not so flat.

"Hey, are those gray-black metals?"

Large objects appeared within the super perception range of Overlord, some like stones and some like gray-black metal.

The overlord suddenly became interested and swam over immediately. After watching it, he became disappointed.

Those are not so-called gray-black metals, but some stones of varying sizes.

In disappointment, the Overlord did not give up and continued to search. After searching for several hours in one go, he felt a little hungry, so he swam back to its temporary cave.

There is food in the cave, but it is still a huge octopus. These days, the Overlord will go to the trench across the mountain and hunt giant octopus from there.

I am not greedy either. One is enough every time. I will go and hunt it after eating it.

There are still a large number of giant octopuses in that huge trench. As long as you go to search for them, you will never return empty-handed.

With plenty of food, the Bawang's weight has been growing at a rate of several tons per day, and now it is not far from 1,000 tons.

It’s just a little regretful that the task assigned by Liu Yong has not discovered anything after so many days.

It seems that within a radius of one or two hundred nautical miles, there is no trace of the gray-black metal.

The Overlord once wondered whether to search deeper into the trench.

It has also tried it to reach its limitless depth, but it has not discovered anything, nor has it reached the bottom of the trench.

Obviously, the depth of this trench is at least 7,500 meters, which is considered a very deep trench.

The Overlord sometimes thinks that there may be only two possibilities, either this metal may exist at the bottom of the trench, or there may be a further perimeter.

It was unable to reach the bottom of the trench for the time being, so it decided to expand the search scope in the next few days to try it. Maybe it was lucky and could have a surprise discovery.

.........

Yanguo Special Metals Research Institute.

Hu Jianguo led his team to do in-depth research. As the research deepened, more and more surprises were presented to them.

For example, in front of a large electron microscope, the microstructure of this metal is clearly revealed.

The microstructure of this metal actually presents regular hexagons, just like the atomic structure of diamonds. These regular hexagons are not atomic-scale, but nanoscale.

Hu Jianguo and the others finally understood why the strength of this metal is so high, it turns out that it is because of its structure.

For example, graphite and diamond, one is soft and has low strength, and the other is hard and has high strength.

The elements that make up them are all carbon atoms, but the atoms are arranged differently, and the performances they show are very different.

The microstructure of this metal is already shocking enough, and there are several elements that are even more shocking.

These new elements do not seem to exist in the periodic table of elements at all, and even Hu Jianguo was secretly shocked.

A thought has always emerged in his mind, could this metal not be a product of Earth civilization, but an alien civilization?

Every time this thought comes out, he is shocked and quickly denies it.

......

North Pacific.

The Overlord was reporting to Liu Yong, "Master, I searched two or three hundred nautical miles around, but I didn't find this gray-black metal at all."

What!

There isn't!

Liu Yong thought to himself, could my guess be wrong? The metals in the circular giant cave were not brought by those octopuses. If not, where did they come from?

The fourth update is here!
