Background / History

Chen Yi developed Yifei from its earlier drone and model-aircraft business. During an early attempt to improve a model aircraft, an outdated turbofan engine caused his transition attempt to fail; he responded by reallocating the craft’s attributes for speed and aerodynamic performance, accepting an uglier design in exchange for functionality 3. Yifei had already operated in the drone and model-aircraft field for four years, while Chen Yi had built a reputation within those circles through both his products and self-media presence 5.

He is largely self-taught. Professor Zhang’s investigation concluded that Chen Yi’s drone, engine, and manufacturing expertise exceeded that of many professional professors, though he initially lacked parts of the conventional academic foundation. Chen Yi anticipated this weakness during security scrutiny and used virtual learning to close key gaps 29.

After livestreaming a drone landing on the Moon, Chen Yi cooperated with an official investigation into Yifei’s technology and facilities. Though he initially resisted entering the military-industrial chain because of secrecy restrictions, he later led development of a combined turbofan, ramjet, and scramjet engine at Rongfei Base 27 29 43.

Professor Zhang awarded him a Special Advisor certificate, Party Member certificate, Second-Class Hero Model certificate, and badge following that work 43.

Personality

Chen Yi is calm under pressure and treats extraordinary developments—including massive orders, official inspections, and strategic weapons—as practical engineering problems. He accepts safety restrictions on Yifei products and agrees to add navigation chips and control programs preventing drones from entering no-fly zones or civil-aviation altitudes 20.

He is fiercely independent. He declined a direct doctoral-program invitation despite recognizing its value, preferring to pursue his own projects rather than academic credentials or restrictive institutional roles 29. He similarly resists being idealized, arguing that a “god” becomes both a burden and an eventual scapegoat; he prefers to remain an ordinary leader backed by his own strength 179.

His management style is notably hands-off. He often leaves operations to Qin Xiaoyu, Xia Keke, and He Yu while he games or works on personal research projects, but he can become exacting when Yifei’s standards are not met—such as deducting He Yu’s stock options for failing to inform him of a press-conference plan 21 53.

Abilities & Skills

System-Assisted Engineering

Chen Yi uses a system that evaluates items through attributes and can adjust or upgrade them using consciousness waves. This lets him turn seemingly ordinary prototypes into technologies beyond conventional limits 3 103 183.

• Can inspect an item’s attributes—including energy, control, communication, strength, and efficiency—and redistribute or improve them 3 183.
• High-level upgrades consume immense quantities of consciousness waves; technologies beyond conventional limits can increase the cost by a thousandfold 159 183.
• Advanced technologies must still be read, understood, and digested; this process can take days or weeks for quantum- and force-field-level knowledge 183.
• Has progressively become able to design equipment independently without system adjustments after mastering the necessary technical information 95.

Aerospace and Propulsion Engineering

Chen Yi specializes in aircraft, drones, engines, and spaceflight systems.

• Modified early drone and model-aircraft engines for increased speed, oxidizer use, and improved aerodynamics 3.
• Planned upgrades to rotating detonation engines, Hall thrusters, and a space drone using ion propulsion and AI-assisted avionics 29.
• Led development of an engine combining turbofan, ramjet, and scramjet technologies 43.
• Upgraded a Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket to an extreme specific impulse theoretically capable of interstellar travel, though its energy demands exceeded Yifei’s then-current capacity 103.
• Developed lunar drone operations, deep-space propulsion prototypes, and a Starlink-style relay network for Yifei’s space drones 27 81.

Weapons and Defense Design

Chen Yi repeatedly develops weapons around simple operation, high performance, and decisive strategic effect.

• Upgraded a laser pointer into a high-power laser emitter for a police drone after rejecting infrasound and stun-gun concepts as impractical or unsafe 57.
• Built combat drones whose test attack penetrated 16 steel plates, each 5.2 centimeters thick 66.
• Designed a ground-to-air laser defense array after Xuan Nü detected multiple groups gathering intelligence on him 73.
• Created a space-based orbital kinetic weapon using modified Starlink satellites, electromagnetic acceleration tracks, laser-cleared attack paths, and correction satellites 93 95.
• Developed VR brainwave-control equipment, stealth unmanned tanks, ship-mounted second-generation laser weapons, and a neutrino attack weapon 95 119 155.

Biotechnology and Self-Modification

Chen Yi’s later research shifts from machines alone toward biological systems that reproduce the functions of force-field technology.

• Created cell repair robots by integrating founding-cell information into a meme spectrum while restricting autonomous differentiation to control lifespan-agent production 147.
• Developed biological membranes capable of separating and adsorbing metals for lithium-battery recycling; a 600-kilogram battery test recovered 15.74 kilograms of lithium 88 89.
• Uses biological quantum brain chips to enhance cognition in himself and selected Yifei personnel 200 202.
• Modified himself with magnetic-field cells, superconducting bioelectric systems, β-decay energy cells, quantum neurons, and quantum cells 201 223 224.
• Restricts combat-oriented biological modifications to personnel who undergo thought-imprint training, citing the risks of uncontrolled individual power 203.

Corporate and Strategic Leadership

Chen Yi directs Yifei’s long-term technical direction while delegating routine operations to trusted staff.

• Shifted Yifei into high-end materials, high-energy batteries, and advanced recycling technology 44 53 89.
