Chapter 1753 Materials Science
But more than one warhead that has not been damaged has proved clearly that the caliber of this weapon is like this, let alone impossible, that is to say, Japan has surpassed the United States in terms of advanced weapons. Although Americans are very clear that the owner behind this weapon cannot be the Japanese. Although Japan has developed rapidly in recent years, it supports Japan, and even among the Japanese government and the people, the very influential United States clearly knows that Japan's previous productivity level was far inferior to that of the United States, which obtained British technology, let alone the United States today. The United States has this confidence and is far higher than Japan in various technologies.
Unfortunately, this is not reflected in the war. In Alaska, the United States has been defeated. Although its technology is far higher than its opponents, in terms of performance on the battlefield, Japan is the only one with conventional weapons, with some more advanced weapons, Japan is overwhelming the United States.
Then, the target behind it is about to emerge. The Chinese only produced 15-inch naval guns a few years ago before the entire war broke out, creating a fantasy-class China, which is now the most advanced battleship.
To be honest, since the outbreak of World War I, China's face has been hidden in the fog. It is powerful, its technological level, and its various new weapons. In the past, the United States did not believe that the fantasy level was made by China. They just took it for granted that Germany had prepared for a long time, transferred its productivity in advance, and set up a large dock in China. This was something that the United States and Britain believed at the beginning, because no one would believe that China, which was still poor and was left alone 10 years ago, and even 5 years ago, had the same industrial capabilities as theirs.
In fact, both Britain and the United States made mistakes. After confronting China, more and more evidence shows that the fantasy level is China. Although it absorbs German technology, even Germany has no way to copy the fantasy level so far. It may be that in one case, just like the UK transfers technology to the United States, China has obtained some of Germany's technology, and in which it is bestowed on its success, it is finally produced.
Ignoring China, this is the biggest omission of the Allied Powers so far. It was quietly developed under the premise of China's support of Germany and dragging the Allied Powers, forming a current behemoth. The top leaders of the United States even feel powerless in the face of China. Not only is they powerless across the Pacific, but they are also the powerless in China's territory. A big country that is larger than the United States and Canada combined, and is also the world's largest population power. This is simply a combination of the United States and Russia, and even far higher than this sum in terms of population.
A country with such a large population and a huge size, even if it has industrial capabilities similar to or even a little inferior to the United States, it will become a terrible road roller, not to mention that it is even more than the United States to a certain extent. Although the United States has never been willing to believe it, it is true in terms of the current data obtained.
The military knew the ideas of the senior management without any vagueness, and even many tactics and weapons. Even though they knew that China was behind them, they did not mention that China had a state of war. At this time, the debate was of no use, but it was still back to the weapon. What is this weapon? Although it has a warhead and knows that the material is very powerful, its body is a gun or a cannon. It is obviously not in line with the design concept of the cannon, but the gun is too terrible. The technician simply analyzed based on the existing data that if the gun is used, even if it increases the weight, his requirements for the material are incredible, which is much higher than that of the United States.
In fact, Americans do not know that China's anti-aircraft machine guns have really reached this strength. In terms of materials, they are the most powerful part of China. Among all-in-one machines, there are 10,000 kinds of materials every day. Especially after having the ability to analyze, China's materials science has made rapid progress. Now, it is no longer a random material. In this way, the chance of high-quality and epoch-making materials may be greatly reduced, but the strength of ordinary materials is soaring at an unimaginable rate of the entire world.
For Yang Yuanzhao, he would rather promote stable and orderly development than to catch a fortune in countless opportunities. Take the glorious history of China's porcelain for example. In the long history, countless fine products have been born. All of these fine products are kiln-turned. This kiln transformation is an uncontrollable choice. It may only take 100, 1,000, or even tens of thousands of times to produce such a person. Moreover, this thing is not replicable, and even he himself may not be able to repeat all this. For artworks, it will produce immeasurable fine products, but for a country and a nation's technological heritage, this is completely useless. In the eyes of the wise emperor, which is more important than the former.
This is how China is. In the 21st century, some materials, accumulated before all-in-one machines, and the material technology of this era, have jointly built the foundation of Chinese materials science, and Chinese materials, are improving wildly at an unimaginable speed.
The reason why materials are called basic science is that in later generations, only the world's top strong country is qualified to study. Even if China is located in the world's second economy, it is already strong enough in capital. However, the shortcomings of materials science have always been China's eternal pain. For example, in 2016, the Prime Minister of the State proposed a breakthrough separately at the Science and Technology Conference, and China finally developed a ballpoint pen tip, which is a huge breakthrough.
Ballpoint pens are ridiculous. Maybe every ordinary person knows that even every moment, people will use such a small thing. This may be the thing that everyone has the most contact in their daily life in addition to food, clothing, housing and transportation. But no one would have thought that before 2016, the most core ballpoint pen tip was long-term. China had been relying on imports. Without imports, it would not be able to produce qualified ballpoint pen tips, let alone ballpoint pens.
38 billion ballpoint pens are produced every year, and the ballpoint pen tip is only a very small bit, but it requires importing 1,000 tons of ballpoint pen tips every year, which consumes 15 million foreign exchange. On average, it is US$15,000 per ton, more than 90,000 yuan per ton, which is close to 10,000 yuan per ton. This is equivalent to five or six thousand yuan per ton per ton of ordinary steel, and the prices of some special steels are nearly ten times higher.
I don’t know how many years have plagued China, or even a few years ago, there was a saying that China could not produce a qualified screw. Similar small and high-standard materials have always been a lack of China. They consume a lot of foreign exchange every year, and the price is almost ten times twenty times that of ordinary steel.
So this is because China has lacked decades of development, and materials are not achieved overnight, requiring huge investment and a little bit of inspiration. Before China's economy developed, the country has always been very cautious in this area of investment, basically making small steps forward. Among the advantageous projects and projects with relatively high demand, more tilts are needed. Basically, if you can avoid other projects, you will be exempted. That is, after the first decade of the 21st century, with the rise of China's economy and the country's control of more and more funds, it will begin to study basic projects. Ballpoint pen tips are only part of the breakthrough in materials science.
If other technologies cannot be achieved overnight and cannot develop over time, China currently has unique advantages in materials science. In the face of Yang Yuanzhao, all the materials problems that have plagued China in later generations are not a problem. Ten thousand times a day is a cheap material testing process. In the past, it required precise control. It may not be possible to have a perfect combination and refining several times. In an all-in-one machine, it is just a simple use of synthesis. If it is just this, it only reduces the investment in materials science research, allowing China to spend less capital and improve in materials science.
What really makes Chinese materials science make progress is analysis ability. This is the accompanying ability of all-in-one machines, but it is the most buggy thing in materials science. None of them, a new material can easily and quickly know its full purpose. Even in the 21st century, it is a method that can promote materials science to move forward quickly.
In later generations and the era of technological development, no one dared to say that among the many materials that have been discovered, they have thoroughly studied all uses of materials. In the Nobel Prize, there are also awards to those who find out new uses of some materials. In the field of science and technology, there are top scientists who pursue new materials, and scholars who also study new uses of original materials.
Even among scholars who are studying new materials, if the new materials produced are based on some scientific and technological research and data, it takes a series of experiments to determine whether they have reached the height of the experiment. Sometimes, it may only take one or two days to complete a furnace of materials. However, it may take two or three months or even longer to determine whether the material meets the requirements and whether the experiment is successful. The cutting-edge materials are determined in this way, finding the reasons, designing and continuing to refine them slowly. This is also the fundamental reason for the huge cost of materials. A furnace of materials may be valuable, but the process of analysis, summary and research is even more expensive.
Analytical ability, but in an instant, clearly explains all the properties of such a material clearly and clearly. There are some rare uses. This is at most to improve the application of materials. However, according to a gradual method, finding the rules from many additives, this is the greatest ability to analyze and is also the huge foundation for the progress of Chinese materials. The most cost-consuming part. The waste of the material itself and the waste of analytical performance are all solved. What is the obstacle that restricts the development of materials? With the support of all-in-one machines, China's materials science is like a rapid development with wings. (To be continued...)
