Chapter 29 The Heartbreaking Story Behind the Scenes

"In September 2011, the US announced a large-scale arms sale to Taiwan, totaling 145 F-16 fighter jets..."

"In November 2011, the United States established a military base in Darwin, Australia, while simultaneously strengthening military and security cooperation with countries such as the Philippines and Vietnam..."

Lin Dong hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and searched for some reports on the recent external military situation. Immediately, reports popped up on the screen.

Compared to external news broadcasts, these reports on the internal network are significantly more detailed, including the progress of events, subsequent impacts, specific deployments, and so on.

Lin Dong opened the map and marked the locations corresponding to these reports one by one, while also displaying the effective coverage area of ​​the military forces deployed at each location.

Soon, the military bases and the areas covered by their military forces were connected, forming two tightly woven networks, one large and one small, without any loopholes. The center of these networks was none other than the entire domestic region.

"Is this the first and second island chain blockade lines?"

"A Black president's 'pivot to Asia' strategy?"

Looking at the two large nets, even though he knew that in a dozen years, the first island chain would be completely breached and the second island chain would be nearly paralyzed, Lin Dong still felt a chill run down his spine.

Because of such a tight military blockade, if the other side of the ocean wanted to, 90% of the country's trade and economic lines could be cut off, and the entire nation's people would fall back into poverty.

At this time in his previous life, he was a carefree elementary school student who didn't care about these things.

By the time he grew older and began to understand these things, the other side of the ocean was already showing signs of weakness.

Therefore, he did not have a deep understanding of the blockade lines of these two island chains, nor of the "return to Asia-Pacific" strategy across the ocean.

But now, reborn back to this era, seeing the blockade lines of these two island chains firsthand, a sense of suffocation and despair overwhelms me at first glance.

This is like a Damocles' sword hanging over your head.

It may not fall easily.

But as long as it exists, the country's lifeline will always be controlled by others, and the people will always have to depend on others for survival.

It's like two thick chains trying to strangle the country again, turning over a billion people into their slaves, and using endless economic colonization and exploitation to support them.

"No wonder Dad and the others suddenly became a bit anxious."

"If I hadn't been reborn and knew about the world situation later, I probably would have been even more anxious in the face of such a blockade."

"Even if the entire island chain is broken through, only we ourselves know how much hardship and bitterness we endured during those more than ten years of blockade and breakthrough."

Lin Dong took a deep breath, stopped watching, turned off the screen, picked up his phone, and went back to the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group's residential compound.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

On the other side, the core area of ​​the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (CAC) base.

Wang Xingguo, who has been promoted to chief engineer in recent years, came to Lin Weiliang's office, looked at the blueprints on the computer screen, and said seriously: "The design of this Hot 002 is aimed at breaking through the thermal barrier."

I wonder how the avionics system will be designed. If the avionics system is this powerful, it would probably be the most powerful unmanned aerial vehicle in the world today.

At this time, based on the previous SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft, the other side of the ocean further proposed the concept of the SR-72 unmanned strategic reconnaissance aircraft in 07.

The plan is to use a turbojet + air-breathing subsonic gas turbine + scramjet system, with a speed of up to Mach 6, a cruising altitude in the critical airspace, and a flight radius of 6000 kilometers. With the help of tankers, it can reach any place in the world within an hour.

However, this thing is still just a concept drawing and has not yet been officially unveiled.

"I'm not sure about that. This kid wrote all the avionics systems himself."

Lin Weiliang shook his head.

Ever since he realized that his ancestral grave had sprung up a monster, he had been rather laissez-faire about Lin Dong's affairs. Today was the first time he had offered Lin Dong advice.

"Then you should prepare yourself."

Wang Xingguo seemed to have thought of something and looked at Lin Weiliang teasingly, "Maybe after your kid finishes building this hot No. 002, he'll take it for a test flight."

"You, a former aircraft expert and now a wireless communications expert, are about to step up again, adding another title to your portfolio across different fields."

"..."

Lin Weiliang froze, opening his mouth but unable to utter a single word.

This isn't just a case of evil spirits appearing in the house; this is clearly a sin.

If this weren't his only son, he would really want to curse his mother.

The boy plays happily every day, doing whatever interests him, while his father has to take care of everything, and his hair is already gray before he's even forty...

"Old Lin, did you talk to your son about that suggestion I gave you a while ago?"

Wang Xingguo joked and then got back to the main topic, looking at Lin Weiliang and saying, "Chief Engineer Yang has been working so hard all these years that his heart is exhausted and the doctor has forced him to rest. I'm over fifty now, and I don't know how many more years I can hold on. If possible, when your son grows up, let him take over."

"Boss, I'm not even forty yet..." Lin Weiliang was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Just call me Old Lin."

"Well......"

Wang Xingguo was a little speechless. Looking at the gray hairs mixed in with Lin Weiliang's temples, he tried to explain, "This 'old' means familiar."

"Look, we've known each other for over ten years since you graduated and came to Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group. We're practically old acquaintances, so calling me 'Old Lin' is a perfectly normal way to address me."

"...Oh well, what can I do? I gave birth to such a son, so I guess I'm destined to be a hard-working person."

Lin Weiliang sighed: "What you mean is, I just told him, and he didn't object."

This kid has a photographic memory and learns very quickly.

After a while, I'll give him some information on large projects to advise on. For now, I'll take the lead and use my name to help him learn and accumulate experience...

At this point, Lin Weiliang paused, looked at Wang Xingguo, and said, "Boss, I came here right after graduation and have spent more than ten years here. From now on, I can never go abroad, never travel far from home, and never tell anyone what I've done. Now my son is also coming here..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xingguo fell silent. He stood up and looked out the window at the sky: "I'm the same as you, but I came here more than ten years earlier. My son is now a master's student at Northwestern Polytechnical University."

It's just that his talent is rather lacking, not as good as your son's, but he can still travel far away at will in the future.

Weiliang, I understand what you mean.

However, technological progress, national prosperity, and the rise of a country cannot be achieved by wishing; some things must be done by someone.

"It's better to do our best now than to wait until the enemy attacks and then have no chance to do it."

"I know, and I'm aware of that too."

Lin Weiliang remained silent, then said with a touch of sadness, "It's just that Lin Dong is different. He's only eleven years old, and he's only in fifth grade right now."
