Chapter 2340: Chapter 2180: Is There Really No Problem Doing It Like This? This time. There’s also a live broadcast. "The show is starting!" "Wow!" "This submersible is so beautiful, I really want to sit on it. I’m growing more fond of Tang Qing. His ideas allow us to see many new things." "Yes, yes!" "Testing two devices together, aren’t they afraid of messing up?" "That’s called confidence." "..." Hearing that the aircraft can also take off and land underwater, the netizens were enthusiastic, and similar to last week, combined with the weekend, millions of viewers gathered quickly. The discussions were lively. Generally speaking. To avoid embarrassment from failures, such tests are usually not casually opened to the public, but Tang Qing did it anyway, showing his confidence in the aircraft. However. Even if it fails, people adopt a forgiving attitude. What they’re afraid of is sugarcoating. Failures in manufacturing are not scary; no product is smooth sailing during creation. Conducting tests properly and facing issues is the right attitude. At this moment. In the footage. The aircraft had approached within three meters of the sea surface. Then. With a ’plop’ sound. It plunged into the water. That’s right. It didn’t gently fall; it plunged. Despite the low altitude, it made the audience’s hearts leap into their throats, and many thought something had gone wrong. "Ah!" "Something happened." "Not good." "..." Unexpectedly. The narrator stated: Normal operation. Upon hearing this. Everyone gradually calmed down. Fortunately, nothing went wrong. As to whether it would break, people hadn’t considered it. They just saw it as one drop test; after all, it was only a few meters high, and below was water. Afterwards. They saw the aircraft... sink. Yes. It sank. From the sea surface, not a trace could be seen. "Whoa!" "Is it a water takeoff... or an underwater takeoff? Narrator, don’t trick me. Even if it’s a fault, it’s not embarrassing. Make sure to save people quickly." "Right!" "This is no joke." "..." The timid individuals felt anxious once more. However. Many remained rational. "It should be fine. As for why it sank, obviously the entire aircraft, weighing as much as a heavy tank, would sink a bit." "Makes sense." "Let’s wait and see, hopefully, it’s not an accident." "..." Indeed. After several seconds. The water surface began to bubble and churn. Shortly after, four large whirlpools appeared on the sea surface where the rotors were, causing some to wonder: "Starting underwater? Doesn’t the engine need an air intake?" This question. Made many people rebuke. "Firstly, investigate why submarines can sail underwater. Secondly, compressed air technology has been around since the 21st century; what’s so strange about it?" "Thirdly." "There’s a submersible nearby. According to you, that thing shouldn’t exist at all because it can’t breathe underwater." This retort. Was quite direct. However. No one asked this silly question again. Afterwards. They saw the aircraft pause for a minute before a loud rumbling began. The large fuselage started to slowly rise from the water and suspended above it. Instantly. The applause was overwhelming. "Awesome!" "Impressive!" "Tang Qing is mighty!" "Amazing." "Our Tangtang is the best!" "..." Although this technology may not be the most advanced globally, the ability for an aircraft to take off and land underwater has undoubtedly reached the world’s forefront, with almost no comparison. Look. What’s so great about taking off and landing on water? This is taking off and landing underwater. It seems. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖 It could even submerge for a while and still work, which made the audience extremely proud, as this is Huaxia’s technology, not found elsewhere. Currently. With seaplanes, the power is either upfront or overhead. However, this dares to have engines soaked underwater; they honestly haven’t heard of such a thing. ... On-site. Onboard the ship. Everyone watched as the aircraft soared into the air, applauding enthusiastically. The entire scientific research team was thrilled, and many looked towards Tang Qing. Excited. Happy. Even. Someone in the crowd was picked up and tossed into the air in celebration. Seeing this, Tang Qing knew they were fighters. With them, every challenge was overcome quickly. Speaking of contributions. Honestly. The fighters accounted for ninety percent of these two projects. Otherwise, with the usual speed of research and the time needed for trial and error, it would be delayed by at least two years. Now. It’s accomplished in a year. It’s incredibly fast. At this moment, the second water entry began, and with a plop, it fell into the water. Unlike before, it started power loss testing as in fault tests. Three powers. Two powers. One... this doesn’t work. It’s too big. Too heavy. While it can take off on flat ground, underwater takeoff with a single power source just isn’t enough. But don’t forget; the entire aircraft has eight power sources. Wanting it to fail down to just one power source. That’s tough! Unless it’s strafed or bombarded, under normal circumstances, having only one power source left is impossible. Therefore, this isn’t really a metric. Then. Like a seabird hunting fish, the aircraft repeatedly plunged into the water and then soared back up, making the hearts of the million viewers in the live broadcast jump every time. It’s too stimulating. Doing it like this. Is it really okay? After all, this is a high-tech gadget, and they were afraid that in all this toss-up, an accident might occur. On-site. The military. Public security. Both parties twitched their mouths. Frankly. This was entirely a ’violent test,’ and several times it fell from over ten meters high. Even the toughest couldn’t withstand such play. It was quite scary. However. After dozens of back and forth, they gradually realized that this thing’s quality was extremely good. Normal helicopters, even military ones, wouldn’t survive such treatment. Now. This Jumbo, seemingly indifferent, conducted self-destructive tests. They wanted to remind them not to push it so much but still held their tongues. After all. This is their test. And. The more durable, the better, right? However. The Tang family wasn’t so calm. "Tangtang, is it really alright?" Tang Kai’s face showed a trace of worry. This was an entirely violent test, with hundreds of thousands watching the live broadcast, and if something went wrong. It would be big news. In response. Tang Qing simply smiled. "No problem." "It won’t break." Seriously. If this could break, why would Tang Qing bother making it? Not to mention ten meters above the sea; even falling on a six-story building’s cement, it would still fly. Materials. Structure. Craftsmanship. All had undergone hundreds of experiments, along with supercomputer calculations involving trillion-level computations. Although the materials might not be top-notch in hand. They were sturdy enough. Otherwise. If it were built using the most advanced technology and materials, it would become an airborne behemoth, seeing fighter aircraft, would dare to engage and only lose a bit of paint. Unfortunately. It could only be played with by itself; even against the United States, it hadn’t reached a point where Tang Qing needed to employ his military forces. He wasn’t on a path of fighting worldwide. Although. Beating the United States was quite satisfying. However. Controlling its politics, economy, and military was obviously more rewarding.
