CHAPTER 533: CHAPTER 532 TARGET
"Mainly, my family won’t allow me to launch a rocket myself. Otherwise, I’d just build one myself. It’s not a big deal anyway; I can still build rockets."
Jiang Cheng’s words were so casual that Xiang Dong’s blood pressure rose once again.
Man, you still want to build a rocket yourself? You are too ambitious! Why don’t you just go to the heavens?
Xiang Dong inwardly lamented madly, as it was the only way to ease his current mood.
But soon he thought, Jiang Cheng actually has the ability to build a rocket; maybe he really could go to the heavens on his own.
For someone like Jiang Cheng, rocket technology isn’t really difficult, plus he has enough money to achieve this goal.
Finally, Xiang Dong accepted the fact that Jiang Cheng really was going to launch his own micro-satellite this time.
If you truly have this idea, I can ask the authorities to see if it’s possible, but I can’t guarantee anything; after all, it’s not something I can decide."
He didn’t have enough confidence to ensure that he could help Jiang Cheng with this issue, so he gave Jiang Cheng a heads-up first.
If it were the military’s business, I could definitely handle it for you, but rocket launching doesn’t fall under our jurisdiction. I’ll have to coordinate with the higher-ups and see what the aerospace company says.
The Yan Family’s aerospace company is not under their control; it’s a very independent department and a unique entity within the entire Yan Family.
Other people wanting to order the aerospace company around is basically impossible; they wouldn’t pay attention unless someone really important spoke up, then the aerospace company might help Jiang Cheng.
No problem, just mention this to the higher-ups. It doesn’t matter if it works or not, I’m just asking anyway.
Jiang Cheng said it didn’t matter, but he was actually very confident about this matter inwardly.
He believed that given his substantial contributions, asking the people at the aerospace company to help launch a micro-satellite would be quite easy.
As long as Xiang Dong mentioned it to the higher-ups, he was sure this could be sorted out for him.
"Alright then, I’ll mention it to the higher-ups when I get back. Just helping you with the launch, right? Will you provide the micro-satellite yourself or do you want the family to help build one for you?" Xiang Dong thoughtfully reminded Jiang Cheng, asking if he needed help with the micro-satellite.
No need for help with the micro-satellite matter; I can handle its production myself. Just make sure the rocket launch is arranged.
With some progress on the micro-satellite launch, Jiang Cheng seemed quite happy and spoke to Xiang Dong with a smile.
As for the micro-satellite, it was uncomplicated for him, and he certainly didn’t need the family’s assistance in manufacturing.
It was something he could solve in the laboratory, so there was no need to trouble the family with it.
"Besides, I have more confidence in my technology, and the micro-satellite I make will definitely be more advanced than the average ones.
Jiang Cheng obviously didn’t need help with the micro-satellite, and he had the right to look down on those experts in designing them.
In the field of high-tech product manufacturing, he had absolute confidence in surpassing all the experts.
Jiang Cheng believed that the micro-satellite he crafted himself would certainly be the most advanced in the world.
"Okay then, I’ll do my best to handle your affairs. Just wait at home for my news; I’ll get back to you as soon as possible."
Since everything was sorted out, Xiang Dong was ready to leave.
Before leaving, he assured Jiang Cheng that he would definitely keep Jiang Cheng’s affairs in mind.
Since Jiang Cheng received a guarantee from the other party, he felt even more confident about the matter.
As long as Xiang Dong connected with the Yan Family, this affair would definitely be resolved smoothly; his reputation was quite advantageous there.
Jiang Cheng had a lot of confidence in his standing within the Yan Family.
After seeing Xiang Dong off, it was already evening.
It happened to be dinner time, so Jiang Cheng had a meal with the few women in his family.
Recently, Jiang Cheng was so busy with his own matters that he had little time to care for the three women around him and had somewhat neglected them.
Spending some time dining and resting with them was nice; at the very least, it could enhance their relationships.
Jiang Cheng was not one of those research-obsessed scientists who only cared about experiments. Although he loved scientific research, it was his greatest passion, he also cared about his closest ones and didn’t solely focus on research.
Even though research was extremely important to Jiang Cheng, the people around him were equally important.
Everyone was joyful during the dinner, with a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
They all loved these moments of reunion, which gave everyone a sense of home.
After dinner, it was time to relax.
All four were thoroughly satisfied.
The next morning, Jiang Cheng woke up early. After a night of exertion, he felt refreshed, both in body and mind. Relaxed, Jiang Cheng immediately immersed himself in his research, busy in the laboratory.
Since the micro-satellite launch had some progress, it was time for him to start manufacturing a micro-satellite.
This micro-satellite was for his own use, so naturally, he wanted to make it as good as possible.
To achieve global communication, a single communication micro-satellite wouldn’t suffice.
Because a micro-satellite can only cover a part of the Earth’s surface, receiving and sending signals to a limited area, it can’t cover the whole Earth.
For a micro-satellite to receive signals from the ground, its receiving device must be aimed at that particular area of the surface.
Otherwise, signals sent from the surface to the micro-satellite wouldn’t be captured. After all, Earth is a spherical entity, and one micro-satellite obviously can’t receive signals from everywhere.
If the micro-satellite and the signal emitting location are on opposite sides of Earth, normal communication would be impossible. That’s why communication micro-satellites generally consist of numerous ones that can transmit signals among them, forming a complete micro-satellite network.
If signaling and receiving occur on opposite sides of Earth, micro-satellites can serve as intermediaries, sending signals to the other side of the globe.
Typically, to enable global communication, telecom companies must launch several micro-satellites; otherwise, only certain areas can function normally.
But Jiang Cheng didn’t need such hassles; he just needed one micro-satellite to achieve global coverage, forming a complete micro-satellite network in space.
The micro-satellite he intended to create was no ordinary communication micro-satellite; it was far more advanced than the current ones.
Jiang Cheng planned to employ some brand-new techniques on his micro-satellite, enabling it to independently form a global coverage micro-satellite network.
This is a technology yet to appear on Earth, which without Jiang Cheng, might take many years before someone else discovers it.
But Jiang Cheng aimed to shorten this timeline and introduce this technology to Earth sooner.
This advanced technology utilizes a special reflective reception technique; it can harness Earth’s atmospheric reflection to receive signals from every position on the ground.
