Chapter 662 The matter of the new material industry
After waiting in the waiting hall for almost an hour, it was finally time to board.
After hearing the English prompt from the radio, Zhao Guoyang took the lead and stood up.
"Okay, you can board the plane! Everyone, let's go now!"
Zhao Guoyang joined forces, Liang Hongjun, Xue Ming and others stood up one after another.
After passing the security check, a group of nine people boarded the plane in turn.
Due to safety factors, the delegation purchased business class air tickets.
Led by the tall blonde flight attendant, nine people found their seats and sat down.
The seats in the business class are arranged in "2-2-2", and Zhao Guoyang's seats are located on the left side of the aisle. Next to him is Ning Zhongxin.
But while waiting for the takeoff, Huo Xiufen behind Zhao Guoyang said to Director Ning with a little embarrassed, hoping to change his seat with him.
The reason is very simple. Huo Xiufen will feel a little airsick when taking off, hoping to sit next to the window.
As for why he didn't change positions with Duan Ruixiang beside her, it was because this Duan Worker also had the same problem.
Director Ning naturally would not refuse Huo Xiufen's request, and soon changed seats with her.
Seeing the blushing researcher Huo sitting beside him, Zhao Guoyang said a little apologetically: "I had known that Huo had been airsick, so when I bought the air ticket, I would choose a location near the wing..."
Indeed, generally speaking, if someone is airsick, you can choose a seat in advance when buying a plane ticket.
The best position to prevent airsickness is to be near the wing and near the window.
Because it is the most difficult to feel the bumps of flight near the wings. The position near the window can distract people and make people pay attention to the horizon or other long-distance scenery.
If these seats are occupied, you can choose the window position of the front cabin in the front of the plane, which is also the smallest bumpy place during the journey.
Although Zhao Guoyang was just a short sentence, Huo Xiufen's impression of him improved a lot.
Originally, in her opinion, this young delegation leader might be very capable, but he must have lacked experience when dealing with some sudden affairs.
Who knew that this person not only expressed his concern for him, but also put his words on his own, which made Huo Xiufen unexpectedly.
After seeing Huo Xiufen sit down, he still frowned slightly, and Zhao Guoyang said with concern: "Why do I ask the flight attendant for you? There should be some medicine on the plane."
"This...it's better not to bother. After the takeoff, it should be fine!" Huo Xiufen blushed and waved his hands repeatedly.
Zhao Guoyang said disapprovingly: "This is not a big deal. In fact, some flight attendants also have airsickness during takeoff..."
While speaking, Zhao Guoyang pressed the "key" to request service.
After a while, a tall, blond and blue-eyed flight attendant stood in front of him with a smile on his face.
"Sir, what can I do to serve you?" asked the blonde flight attendant in a somewhat stiff English.
After hearing the other party’s accent, Zhao Guoyang smiled: “Miss, you usually speak French, so let’s communicate better in French!”
Zhao Guoyang spoke pure French, which surprised the blonde flight attendant and couldn't help but look at him twice.
"Okay, thank you for your considerateness!" The blonde flight attendant who came to her senses quickly said.
"Well, that's right. My companion is a little airsick. I would like to ask if your crew has airsickness medicine?"
"For example, prescription drugs such as Ning and Minkejing, or hyopamine drugs are OK!"
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's inquiry, the blonde flight attendant nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, sir, wait a moment, I'll pick it up for you now!"
When the blonde flight attendant went to get the medicine, Zhao Guoyang noticed that Huo Xiufen beside him was looking at him with a strange look.
"Zhao...Captain Zhao, your French is very standard. I'm afraid you have been studying for many years, right?" Huo Xiufen asked quietly.
"Uh... it's been a long time." Zhao Guoyang was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer her question.
I can't say that I have studied for decades in my previous life, right?
Looking at Zhao Guoyang's expression, Huo Xiufen felt a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Researcher Zhao, I was still a little doubtful about you before boarding the plane!"
"Suspicion?" Zhao Guoyang's mind changed a little and understood what this person was talking about.
He smiled and waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It's okay, if anyone else, I'll be suspicious when I see that the guy of my age is actually the leader of the inspection team!"
"I've been questioned too much, I've been trained with steel and iron bones!"
Listening to Zhao Guoyang's humorous words, Huo Xiufen couldn't help but smirk.
After waiting for a while, the flight attendant brought the airsickness medicine over.
Zhao Guoyang smiled slightly when he helped Huo Xiufen hand over the water cup and watched her take the airsickness medicine.
"Thank you!" When he handed the water cup back to the blonde flight attendant, Zhao Guoyang naturally said thank you to her.
"You're welcome, sir!" The blonde flight attendant nodded and greeted Zhao Guoyang with a smile, and then returned to the work area with the cup.
"Captain Zhao, it seems that you have been on the plane a lot!"
Seeing Zhao Guoyang communicating with the flight attendant calmly, Huo Xiufen on the side couldn't help but ask.
"Uh, it's not too much. If you have a long distance, you've been to Samba once and Czechoslovakia once!" Zhao Guoyang said the truth.
"Oh, Captain Zhao, your adaptability is really strong. I have been on the plane four or five times, and I don't dare to talk to these flight attendants, especially those from abroad!"
After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang laughed slightly.
Indeed, in the early 1990s, air travel was still a relatively new thing for Chinese people.
Many people dare not make reasonable requests to the flight attendants when taking a plane.
For example, when you want coffee and snacks outside of a regular meal, many people have never tried it, but sit in the seat obediently, for fear of making a joke.
But for Zhao Guoyang, flying is just a consumption.
Since I have given you the airline money, I should enjoy these services within the prescribed scope and there is nothing to be embarrassed to speak.
With the airsickness medicine provided by the flight attendant, Huo Xiufen's condition has improved significantly.
During the process of the plane taking off, she basically didn't feel any discomfort.
After the plane entered the stable flight process, Huo Xiufen and Zhao Guoyang had a chat and started chatting without a word.
Although Huo Xiufen is not at the level of the National Planning Commission, he is only one step away from the middle level.
Listening to her talk about some of the people and things she has come into contact with is still very reference.
For example, Huo Xiufen mentioned that at an internal meeting of the National Planning Commission’s High-Tech Industry Department not long ago, a deputy director proposed that we should make great efforts to develop the “new materials industry”.
Perhaps because he felt that Zhao Guoyang didn’t know much about the “new materials industry”, the researcher Huo sighed and said, “The last internal meeting of our department was attended by leaders in the committee, which is enough to show the importance he attached to the ‘new materials industry’.”
"But, from what our Director Jiang Haoran said, our country's research level of "new materials" is too far from other developed countries, and it is a comprehensive gap. If we want to improve our level for a while, we really have no way to start!"
Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang was silent for a moment, and then slowly expressed his point of view.
"Director Jiang's worries make sense, but there is no way to do it!"
"The so-called new materials generally refer to those newly developed or developing materials that have better performance than traditional materials."
"New material technology refers to the technology that creates new materials that can meet various needs through a series of research processes such as physical research, material design, material processing, and experimental evaluation according to human will."
"That's right, the gap between our country and advanced Western countries in the research of 'new materials' is definitely very large. But it is not as difficult as we imagined..."
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's extremely professional words, Huo Xiufen was stunned.
"Captain Zhao, you... do you also understand the 'new materials'?" Huo Xiufen couldn't help but ask.
"Well, let's know a little bit!"
Zhao Guoyang turned to Huo Xiufen and smiled, and then said the previous topic: "New materials are divided into four categories according to the properties of the materials, including metal materials, inorganic non-metallic materials (such as ceramics, gallium arsenide semiconductors, etc.), organic polymer materials, and advanced composite materials."
"According to the performance of the material, there are structural materials and functional materials."
Zhao Guoyang talked freely: "At present, our country's backwardness in the field of 'new materials' is mainly reflected in metal materials and inorganic non-metallic materials."
"As for organic polymer materials and advanced composite materials, although our level is not high, the gap between us and the world's advanced level is not very big."
"After all, except for the behemoth of America, which can unscrupulously invest money in the research of 'new materials', some other Western countries have not invested so much in this regard."
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but look at Huo Xiufen and said, "I think that if our country has ambitions in this regard, we might as well start with organic polymer materials and advanced composite materials first."
"The reason is very simple. The corresponding organic polymer materials and advanced composite materials are mostly functional materials. The scope of use of this material in the future will far exceed that of structural materials."
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's random words, Huo Xiufen felt a little dizzy when he heard it.
