Chapter 8
Mastering the Process
After roughly discussing some details with General Wang over the phone, Guo Hao hung up and made another call to Zhou Ming.
"What is it, Boss?" Zhou Ming asked Guo Hao directly.
"The production of a confidential material must be entirely in our hands. I have left the core production equipment of the material to the military to manufacture, and I will send you the technological process next. When the time comes, you will be responsible for building the factory structure and training the workers, understood? As for the sales channels, you don't need to worry about them for now; I will negotiate a suitable price with the military," Guo Hao said directly to Zhou Ming.
"Understood, Boss."
With that, Zhou Ming suddenly thought of something. He hesitated slightly and asked Guo Hao, "But what about the technical workers? Someone has to understand the entire technological process. In this case, there's a risk of leaks..."
"It's fine. Just ask Xu Yuan directly; let Xu Yuan help you handle these things." Guo Hao smiled.
The Security Bureau would definitely handle this kind of matter.
Including Zhou Ming, the Security Bureau had actually conducted a background check on him long ago and confirmed there were no issues. Otherwise, the Security Bureau would have approached Guo Hao long ago to have him change managers.
"Understood, Boss!" Zhou Ming nodded.
As he spoke, a thoughtful look appeared in Zhou Ming's eyes.
As expected!
The boss's driver, Xu Yuan, is not simple!
He is from the Security Bureau!
Although the things his boss displayed on the surface made him a world-class mathematician, perhaps it wasn't to the extent of requiring protection from the Security Bureau like this.
Could it be related to the military industry?
Zhou Ming didn't dare to think deeper. The core secrets involved inside were extremely difficult to fathom!
Hanging up on Zhou Ming, Guo Hao encrypted two files and sent them separately to Zhou Ming and General Wang.
This matter was considered settled.
The blueprints he drew from the system were thus put to use.
This kind of carbon fiber material with such immense tensile strength could even be used to construct a space elevator!
After all, theoretically, to construct a space elevator, the cable required a tensile strength of 100 GPa or more, otherwise it could not be built. Yet currently in the field of engineering, the highest tensile strength of engineering materials capable of large-scale production was only around 7 GPa, which was far from enough!
Although carbon nanotube materials in laboratories could reach the 100 GPa level, the manufacturing difficulty was extremely high, making large-scale production impossible.
But Guo Hao's carbon fiber material was capable of large-scale production!
Because he had the production equipment blueprints and the entire manufacturing process provided by the system.
Although limited by various different materials on Earth, preventing the manufactured product from reaching the theoretical maximum tensile strength, this 289 GPa tensile strength was still at least enough to begin the initial construction of a space elevator!
Guo Hao smiled.
Perhaps other technologies had not caught up yet, but now that the material was achieved, other technologies would quickly follow suit.
Coming from the future, Guo Hao knew very well that the next ten years would be the fastest period of development for the Dragon Nation.
Various technologies would achieve rapid breakthroughs one after another during these ten years.
In the end, the crown jewel of industry would almost only be the high-end chip industry.
More crucially, this high-end chip industry was also being rapidly conquered by the Dragon Nation in the year Guo Hao reincarnated.
The Dragon Nation's technology would sooner or later be fully capable of undertaking a project of the space elevator's scale.
Originally, the limiting factor for a space elevator was a material that was light enough and had sufficient tensile strength. This hurdle was something he could completely resolve!
Of course...
In truth, Guo Hao was not entirely sure if his modified equipment could produce carbon fiber materials that met laboratory standards.
But at least it should reach the 100 GPa level.
As long as it reached this level, the space elevator plan would not be mere empty talk!
Guo Hao was highly satisfied.
This was actually reforming the entire technology of the Dragon Nation and even the world from the ground up, though materials science had a certain lag.
It still required some time to ferment.
Having handled these matters, Guo Hao let out a sigh of relief.
During this period, he had been busy with various research projects, not even teaching classes. Having not taught for so long, he naturally had to make up for it.
Smiling, Guo Hao made a call to his former counselor, Wang Ming.
"Hello? Counselor?" Guo Hao said with a smile to Wang Ming.
Hearing Guo Hao's voice, Wang Ming felt somewhat flattered.
"Professor Guo, you are too polite with me. Please don't call me counselor, just call me Xiao Wang."
There was no helping it. The current Guo Hao was entirely different from an ordinary student of the materials science department of the past!
He was now a true top-tier giant!
It could be said he was one of the highest-status scientists in the entire Dragon Nation!
A future top-level academician!
Wang Ming naturally did not dare to put on airs in front of Guo Hao.
"Haha, you were my counselor before, so naturally you still are! There's no need for this! I called today to ask what classes Class One of Materials Science has this afternoon? I want to help them make up some classes! After all, I haven't taught them in a while," Guo Hao smiled, speaking to Wang Ming.
"Let me check." Wang Ming quickly began to check. "This afternoon... they have two public classes. I will adjust the schedule for you right away and arrange a classroom!"
"Alright." Guo Hao smiled.
Not long after.
"The classroom has been arranged—Lecture Hall 129. I will go notify all the students for you now."
"Great, sorry for the trouble, Counselor."
"Please don't say that, this is all my duty!"
With that, he hung up.
Guo Hao gathered his things.
Then he slowly strolled toward the lecture hall. Along the way, he ran into Yanhang students, almost all of whom recognized Guo Hao and greeted him one after another.
Guo Hao also smiled and responded.
To Guo Hao, cultivating enough outstanding students was itself an extremely important link in the Dragon Nation's rise.
Relying on himself alone, the Dragon Nation's future development would still be very good.
But many times, he couldn't be in two places at once.
The significance of students lay precisely here.
On the other side, just as the students of Class One of Materials Science were in their public class, they were interrupted by Wang Ming.
"Counselor Wang, is there something?" The professor teaching the public class frowned slightly, asking Wang Ming.
"Professor Zhou, it's like this: Professor Guo Hao wants to take over these two class periods to make up for some computational materials science classes missed previously, so..." Wang Ming looked apologetically at the professor beside him.
"Ah, it's Professor Guo!" The originally frowning Professor Zhou immediately smoothed his brow.
