Chapter 58

Time passed by little by little.

The viewing platform was silent, but the radio would occasionally sound.

"Enter the countdown for 30 minutes, and all levels will check the time."

A clear and steady voice came from the radio.

As soon as the voice came out, Liu Yifei was obviously stunned, because she believed that she had not heard it wrong, this was Teacher Chu's voice.

"Teacher Chu..."

Liu Yifei's eyes showed surprise, and she couldn't help but murmured.

The voice was not loud, but Gu Ying next to her heard it, which made her turn her head to look at Liu Yifei in an instant.

"Is this Teacher Chu?" Gu Ying had always been very curious about Teacher Chu, whom she had always heard but had never met.

At first, Gu Ying thought that Liu Yifei and this Teacher Chu were bound to break up.

After all, the gap between the two was too big, but as she found that Liu Yifei was too deeply involved, Gu Ying changed her mind.

But after really coming to the Xichang Research Base, she found that Liu Yifei was really deeply involved and couldn't extricate herself.

Now, suddenly, the nice voice coming from the radio was actually Teacher Chu, who lived in Liu Yifei's mouth.

At this time, Gu Ying was a little confused. Teacher Chu was not the idiot she thought, but someone who participated in a major research?

It turned out that this was not a "ticket", but a real relative's "ticket".

The sudden change caught Gu Ying off guard.

It was just the atmosphere around her. She wanted to ask, but she couldn't.

Because Liu Yifei's concern at this time was obviously impossible for her. Even if it was usually, as long as it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Liu Yifei's attention would not appear on her, unless she was filming, she could get a little attention.

Now, the project that Teacher Chu participated in was about to be launched, and Gu Ying was obviously very clear that she was the redundant one.

Gu Ying listened to the countdown and the sound of calibration.

However, with the last ten minutes, it was no longer calibration time.

"Enter the countdown, ten minutes..."

"Nine minutes..."

Eight minutes...Seven minutes...

For the first time, Gu Ying felt that time passed so slowly, and the ticking sound seemed to be walking in her heart second by second.

When it came to the last minute, Gu Ying seemed to feel that time had frozen.

Because of the atmosphere around her, her breathing became lighter, and suddenly, her hand was grasped by the nervous Liu Yifei.

The frozen atmosphere, the figures looking into the distance.

At this time, the voice in the command center was also clearly audible through the radio.

"Enter the countdown to the last minute."

Liu Yifei's very familiar voice came from the radio, and at this time, her tone was filled with unprecedented seriousness.

At this moment, she was no longer the most dazzling potential star in the entertainment industry, but just an ordinary person, a family member of an astronaut, looking up at the rocket.

Praying for everything to go well.

Minutes and seconds passed by.

In the live broadcast, the final countdown began.

In coordination with this, uniform, old voices rang out from the viewing platform.

"Ten..."

"Nine."

"Eight."

"Seven."

Second by second, they echoed throughout the world.

The command center, the ground crew, the viewing platform...

All the staff at the Xichang Research Base who were watching the rocket from afar.

And, other launch bases who were watching the live broadcast through the equipment.

Jiuquan, Wenchang, Guyuan, at this moment, they unconsciously substituted the final countdown.

Because this successful launch is a new milestone in the history of Chinese spaceflight.

Counting down second by second.

"Three... Two... One..."

"Ignition!!"

Accompanied by a deep shout, the entire rocket began to tremble slightly, and a huge flame spurted out from the bottom.

Liu Yifei watched the rocket clearly visible through the mist.

It was leaving the ground and slowly heading towards the sky, and the faint sunlight appeared in the sky.

At dawn, the sun shines on the rocket, forming a halo around it.

Liu Yifei's beautiful eyes are filled with pride.

The more you understand, the more you sink, just like a book, when you turn the first page, you have an urge to finish reading it.

But Liu Yifei also hopes that her life is not a book, because many books end in tragedy, and most importantly, the ending of a finished book is already predetermined.

But what she wants is her most direct control.

At this moment, when the rocket is really launched, everything is speechless.

The rocket that is gradually flying to the sky in the morning sun at dawn carries the hopes of too many people.

In the eyes, watching the rocket take off, it is like an expeditionary soldier, carrying the will of countless people, rushing towards the starry sky without hesitation.

Penetrating the blue sky and blue sky, flying towards the silent starry sky with flames.

Liu Yifei is speechless, because she is watching the rocket take off with all her heart.

Gu Ying was also speechless, because she had truly witnessed and felt the shock of the rocket taking off.

On the viewing platform, a group of elderly people stood up silently and watched. At this moment, no one was more nervous than them.

Because they were the ones who experienced the darkest moment in the history of Chinese spaceflight.

They did not want to experience such a thing a second time.

Now, listening to the voices from the command system on the radio, they are extremely familiar.

What was familiar was not the voice, but the instructions.

"Guyuan radar tracking is normal. It has entered silence. Abnormality report."

"Jiuquan radar tracking is normal, enter silence, abnormal report."

"Tiannan Lei radar tracking is normal, enters silence, abnormal report."

"The body is stable and the data is normal."

"Thrust data is normal."

"Good posture control."

"Turn to full speed!!"

"It has reached full speed and is expected to break through the first cosmic speed in three minutes."

Following an order, the bottom of the rocket erupted with a more powerful roar and flew straight into the blue sky.

From the earth to breaking through the atmosphere, it takes no more than ten minutes at most.

Soon, the rocket disappeared from sight, but those on the viewing platform still kept looking up.

Because the journey has just begun.

"The rocket body separated, and the second team took over the launch of the rocket."

"The second team received it and entered the second stage of ignition."

"A small group initiated attitude control and then fired again five minutes later."

"The second group, unfold the solar panels and prepare to enter the predetermined orbit."

"A small group, ignite the fire and control the falling speed."

In the command center, the words one after another made the faces of the old people on the auditorium full of nervousness.

"Old Chen, will it succeed?"

Next to Mr. Chen, a figure was being supported, his tone was trembling.

At this moment, his face was excited, even flushed with excitement, because the satellite had entered orbit.

But what he is concerned about now is obviously not that the satellite has entered orbit, but whether the rocket can come back.

"It will succeed!!" Mr. Chen's eyes were full of excitement at this moment, and he stared at the sky with piercing eyes.

On the viewing platform, the old man did not move, and naturally no one else moved.

"Yifei, what's going on?" Gu Ying couldn't understand at all now, so she could only ask Liu Yifei next to her for help.

"have no idea."

Liu Yifei shook her head and followed the gazes of a group of old people to the sky.

Based on what she knew, the launch should have been successful now, but the expectation in the old man's eyes told her that it was far from successful.

The 'chaos' of instructions was again divided into one group and two groups.

Liu Yifei's beautiful eyes curiously followed the gazes of the old people and looked towards the sky.

Suddenly, she blinked, against the sunlight, she wasn't quite sure whether what she saw was real.

But as time went by, Liu Yifei discovered that it was not her illusion.

Because half of the rocket really appeared in the sky, and the bottom was spraying flames from time to time.

Even under her gaze, getting closer and closer.

Mr. Chen's eyes were full of excitement. It was a joy to be able to send heavy satellites into space, but it would be even more amazing if he was faced with a rocket launch system that could send heavy satellites into space repeatedly.

At this moment, he couldn't control the trembling of his body because of his excitement.

"Grandpa, calm down!"

The girl who was supporting Mr. Chen looked anxious and spoke hurriedly.

"How can I calm down? Tell me how to calm down. How many years have passed and we are now standing up..." Mr. Chen's tone was also trembling, and his eyes were fixed on the ground that was getting closer and closer to the ground, with flames coming out from time to time. half.

Mr. Chen wanted to calm down, but he couldn't.

My heart was filled with joy and my heart was as high as the sky, but what I got in exchange was a firework in the darkness.

How many years had he waited for this moment.

"I finally got it in my lifetime."

He has been working hard for thirty years without complaining.

Falling flames in the darkness, he did not cry, just remained silent.

Now, Mr. Chen's eyes were moist. He had waited for this moment for too long, thinking that he would leave with regrets, but he did not expect that the latecomers would allow him to see this dazzling flame in his lifetime.

"I once had a ball of flame fall on this land, and now there is another ball of flame coming from the sky..."

Mr. Chen had a smile on his face, his cloudy eyes were bright, his heart was burning, and his eyes were naturally bright.

All the old people were speechless, because what Mr. Chen said was what they said in their hearts.

On this piece of land, a ball of flame once fell. They were silent, they were in agony, and some even perished.

Now another flame came from the sky, but their faces were smiling and their eyes were bright.

The most painful scene in the past has become their most exciting moment now.

The outer skin fell off after experiencing extreme speed, just like a soldier returning from an expedition, returning with meritorious deeds and enjoying the glory.

In the darkest moment, as half of the rocket ignited from time to time, it slowly landed on the circular fixed platform.

When the dust finally rose and the excitement reached its peak, Mr. Chen had a smile on his face. He looked at the old man standing beside him and looked at each other. There were no words, everything was in a smile.

Savoring your life carefully, the smile on your face tells the ending after tasting.

Neither Mr. Chen nor anyone else had ever thought about it.

The scene they least wanted to think of was that now they were seeing each other again with smiles on their faces.

Life is like a dream. At this time, they seem to be dreaming, but they don't want to be dreaming, because there is always a moment of waking up from dreams.

But looking into the distance, the moment the ground crew gathered around him, Mr. Chen knew clearly that he was not dreaming.

"Success...."

Mr. Chen and the old man were whispering to each other, while the entire audience was in a state of carnival.

A series of excited voices sounded in the audience seats.

"Success!!"

"It's so shocking."

The rising and falling sounds represent people's excitement.

Gu Ying was also very excited. Although no one explained, she felt a surge of blood in her heart.

"Yifei, it's successful." Gu Ying turned to look at Liu Yifei excitedly.

"Yeah, it worked."

Liu Yifei wiped the corners of her eyes. Behind her success was the hard work of many people.

The figure who was busy until nine or ten o'clock appeared in her mind unconsciously.

Countless people are moving towards one goal.

After decades of hard work, we have gone from the darkest moment to the bright light today.

How much hardship was involved and how many people paid for it.

Looking at the gray hair, Liu Yifei sincerely expressed her gratitude for the success of the launch of Fat Tiger 2. At the same time, she could not help but sigh at the hard work and silent dedication of so many people behind everything.

Liu Yifei suddenly said: "Sister Ying, if there is a drama about aerospace, please show me the script and the producer."

"good."

When Gu Ying heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously.

........

....

In the command center.

As the satellite entered orbit, most of Nie Yuntian's thoughts were focused on a small group.

As the firelight appeared from the sky, some bad thoughts always appeared in his mind uncontrollably.

However, Nie Yuntian's worries did not appear.

Looking at the rising dust, Nie Yuntian seemed to relax his mind at once, and his shoulders suddenly slumped.

The launch was perfect.

is successful.

Also inside the launch center, many people wiped their eyes.

Looking at Chu Ze who was handing over work, Nie Yuntian walked over unconsciously and looked at Chu Ze's face full of vitality seriously.

"Chu Gong, thank you."

Nie Yuntian stretched out his hand, his eyes filled with gratitude.

The fire that once fell in darkness is no longer there, and the road ahead is long and bright.

"One family doesn't talk to each other." Chu Ze stretched out his hand and said with a smile.

"You're right, let's talk to everyone."

Nie Yuntian looked at Chu Ze and then at everyone in the command center.

"Yes, Chu Gong, tell us a few words."

"Chu Gong, I don't know why, but I really want to hear a few words from you."

"The radio is on. Chu Gong wants to say a few words."

Nie Yuntian's words were instantly recognized by others, and their eyes focused on Chu Ze.

In response to these looks, as the saying goes, hospitality is hard to reject, Chu Ze pondered for a moment, and then picked up the microphone he used to give commands before.

As the microphone spread, the entire Xichang Research Base became excited, including the ground staff, the people on the viewing platform, and even the major launch bases that had not stopped live broadcasting.

A clear and loud voice came out.

"Everyone, the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"Let's encourage each other in the future."
