    In the Asian Cup, the Chinese team bloodbathed the Japanese team, which was a feeling of pride. This was also the first heavyweight trophy won by Chinese football in an international competition.  However, this matter was discussed by people for three or four days, and was immediately replaced by another major event - China's manned spacecraft Shenzhou 5 is about to be launched

    Speaking of China¡¯s aerospace industry, like its national defense and military, it has made rapid progress under Qi Yiming¡¯s guidance.  In just a few years, dozens of Beidou satellites have been put into the sky, and there are more and more satellites for military and civilian use.  The Chinese also set a record by launching a total of 45 satellites in a month.

    Most of these launches are not announced to the public. If you have the ability to monitor them, just monitor them. China will not tell them if it doesn't find them.  That's it. China's aerospace technology is growing extremely rapidly.

    Recently, the Red Police Forces looted various Russian properties and technologies, including the Soviet Union¡¯s decades of aerospace experience and technical data.  These things will have a certain value even if they are taken to China in another dimension in 215, and they are relatively valuable assets to China now.

    Of course, because of Qi Yiming, China has already mastered technologies such as high-thrust launch vehicles that were originally only coveted by China.  The Long March 6B rocket has a take-off weight of more than 800 tons and can transport 2 tons of cargo to low-Earth orbit. It is better than the Delta VI heavy-lift launch vehicle that has not yet been successfully developed.

    The reason why the Soviet aerospace technology information is valuable is that the Soviets conducted a large number of designs, demonstrations, and tests. These are things that Chinese astronauts have never done, so they can be used as a reference directly to see clearly what does not work and what is.  Due to its potential, it saves Chinese astronauts a lot of repetitive and useless work, and some mistakes can also serve as lessons for others.

    Except for a large amount of technical and empirical data, China has not taken away all of Russia¡¯s space assets.  For example, the Mir space station is still the property of Russia.  However, in order to maintain the Mir space station and other projects that cannot be stopped, the Russian Federal Space Agency has conducted some cooperation with its Chinese counterparts.  Even though many Russian experts are reluctant and believe that their Chinese counterparts are not qualified to carry their shoes, Russia is still in a state of de facto occupation by China, and without China¡¯s financial investment, it is unlikely that any Russian space program will continue.

    In the original plane, the Americans roped in Russia to work on the International Space Station project, but a civil war broke out in Russia in this plane, so the Americans were not in a hurry to take action. However, after the dust settled, the Russians could no longer make their own decisions.  .  The United States is still enthusiastic about building the International Space Station, but the Russian interim government has refused on the grounds that it has no intention to develop a space program for the time being.  This is normal, because the interim government basically established the top tank and then made the transition by Qi Yiming, and no substantive projects will be launched by them.  Americans also have to wait until the new Russian government is elected before making plans.

    Americans are still hesitant about China.  As the suspicion between China and the United States becomes more serious, Americans are increasingly worried that China will acquire more technologies and pose a greater threat to the United States. As a result, conservative forces in the United States have begun to exclude cooperation with China in various fields.  Cooperation with the International Space Station in the aerospace field also seems very slim.

    But even if the United States proposed cooperation, Qi Yiming would not agree.  Because the most likely scenario is that China will pay a large amount of money and then send a few bureaucrats and one or two technicians to go through the motions. In the end, the decision-making power of the project will not be in the hands of China, and even the right to speak will be thin. Such cooperation is meaningless.  .  Moreover, Qi Yiming does not need to rely on international cooperation to develop his country's aerospace technology. On the contrary, he does not want other countries to understand China's specific technological level.

    China¡¯s aerospace industry may seem like a toddler to outsiders, but in fact, this toddler is a time-travelling person who already has the IQ and knowledge that only people who are decades old have.  He hasn't started taking action yet, but once he takes action, it will definitely be earth-shattering.

    Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base has launched countless rockets in recent years.  This time it is completely different. A former Air Force colonel, as an astronaut, represents the Chinese people and begins the nation's journey to space.  Naturally, he is not Major General Yang from another dimension, but a pilot selected by the Air Force. He has flown J-6, J-6, J-10 and other aircraft models, and even participated in the battle to recover Taiwan Island.  .

    "Dear viewers, I am CCTV reporter Xie Luwei, and I am reporting live to you from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. It is now 6:02, President of the People's Republic of my country and General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, beep beep (the signal is not good), Came to Wentian Pavilion, the astronaut apartment, to participate in the astronaut recruitment ceremony. "The famous female anchor of CCTV appeared on the TV, the director cut the picture, and the No. 1 leader waved to the three astronauts of the first flight echelon through the large glass.

    Leader No. 1 delivered a speech: "the party and the country attach great importance to our country's manned space project, and all relevant parties have made careful preparations to ensure the success of this flight. Now the Shenzhou 5 spacecraft will be launched soonWell, you three comrades are the first batch of astronauts in our country. You all have good qualities, strong will and excellent skills. In a moment, our beep beep beep (the signal is not good, I will tell you that I am too lazy to name) comrade  We must go out as our country's first warrior to explore space, and we must take the great trust of our motherland and people to realize the Chinese nation's dream of traveling in space. This is a very glorious mission and a very great feat.

    At this moment, people of all ethnic groups across the country, including your family and your comrades-in-arms, are paying attention to you and looking forward to you. We believe that you will be calm, perseverant and courageous to successfully complete this glorious and noble mission.  mission.  We wish this flight a complete success and we look forward to your triumphant return.¡±

    Soon, the chief astronaut came outside the command center in a spacesuit, saluted the commander-in-chief, and said loudly: "Comrade commander-in-chief, I have been ordered to carry out the first manned spacecraft mission. I am ready and ready to go. Please give me instructions. Chinese people  People's Liberation Army Astronaut Brigade, astronauts beep beep beep (the signal is bad again).¡±

    "Set off"

    At about B o'clock, everything was ready, the astronauts also entered the spacecraft, and various pre-operation inspections were completed.  The commander-in-chief began to count down. When the 10 seconds were counted, the commander-in-chief shouted to ignite the rocket. The Long March 6 heavy-lift carrier rocket ejected a strong flame. The rocket broke away from the earth's gravity and slowly rose into the sky.  Unlike the Long March 2 carrier rocket used in another dimension, this launch directly used the big guy Long March 6.  Moreover, the actual technological content and space size of the Shenzhou 5 spacecraft are much better than the spacecraft of the same name in another dimension.

    "The telemetry signal is normal and the program is turning."

    "Radar tracking is normal, optical tracking is normal."

    ¡°Perhaps he has seen too many rocket launches in another dimension, so Qi Yiming was not particularly excited about it.  But seeing the crowds of people from all over the country waiting to watch the launch from the TV broadcast, the cheers and tears in their eyes made Qi Yiming feel the excitement of ordinary Chinese for a while.  Even though China has done a lot of great things and achieved more achievements in this dimension, the Chinese people, who have suffered for too long and suffered too much, will never despise too many opportunities to be proud.  Manned spaceflight is the best reflection of a country's comprehensive national strength and technological level. Only truly big countries have the strength to independently complete this arduous challenge. So far, only the Soviet Union and the United States have completed this task.  Although China started decades late, it is full of confidence and is making great strides to catch up with the achievements of the United States and the Soviet Union.

    It is precisely through the accumulation of events such as manned spaceflight, hosting the Olympic Games and World Expo, and the addition of aircraft carriers that Chinese talents have gradually established their feelings as a great nation and have become more motivated to work towards the goals of national rejuvenation and national prosperity.  .  A strong country can only hope to grow and prosper on its land if it does things well and makes people remember it.

    "Compared to China, Russia on the other side is also a big country, and even overall its living standards and technological strength are much better than China's. However, Russia continues to sink.  Because Russia in that era could no longer regain the sense of pride it had in the Soviet era, and was constantly struggling with negative emotions, enjoying the money brought by resources, but losing the mood to fight for glory.  Even when Russia once again confronts the West for its own interests, many Westerners are not actually worried about them because this Russia is not worthy of their fear.

    The first manned space flight was very short, less than a day.  Afterwards, the return capsule of Shenzhou 5 landed on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia. The astronauts walked out of the capsule and the commander-in-chief announced that China's first manned space flight was successfully completed.

    This incident has naturally aroused widespread repercussions in the world, and foreigners are also impressed by the major events China has accomplished, which have strengthened their impression of China's national strength and international status.  However, more and more people have begun to speak skeptically towards China.

    A U.S. Republican senator said on the CNNR program that China has begun to replace the Soviet Union in all aspects and has developed into a challenger to U.S. global leadership. The U.S. government and people must be particularly vigilant.  In addition, we should find ways to limit the war in China's space program. If a new round of space arms race breaks out, although the United States has an absolute advantage, it will never be a good thing.

    Of course, there are also those shady guys. Some media and public opinion believe that the reason why China can achieve the success of manned spaceflight is related to its extensive search for aerospace technology in the Soviet Union.  They also did not take into account that China had already launched four Shenzhou spacecrafts before Shenzhou-5, all of which were carried out step by step. It is nonsense to say that China can succeed by relying on the legacy of the Soviet Union.
