The pitch-black night provided excellent cover.
No one would have imagined that any aircraft would dare conduct a test flight in the dead of a winter night. How much confidence in its program controls, manufacturing processes, and material performance would it take to do something so reckless?
But Zhou Feiyu dared to be reckless!
The support of the Artificial Intelligence "Xinghe" and materials beyond current Earth technology were where his confidence lay.
The test flight was a complete success, and they had gathered firsthand data that was far more genuine and reliable than the information Artificial Intelligence "Xinghe" had searched up online.
The information online was vast and varied. Even products of the same type differed from one manufacturer to another, and their experiences varied as well, so it could not be copied wholesale and could only serve as a reference.
Now that they had firsthand data from their own practical testing, the next step was to manufacture drones with even more advanced performance.
It was at that moment that an announcement from the central government set all of China ablaze.
It was an announcement concerning the annual National Science and Technology Award Conference. Under both the "National Science and Technology Progress Award" and the "National Technology Invention Award," one name stood out: "Zhou Feiyu, Chairman of Fei Yang Company, Jiangnan Province"!
The moment the announcement was released, everyone was stunned.
Before this, Fei Yang had continuously introduced new products, repeatedly broken foreign monopolies, and achieved world-leading technological breakthroughs in several new fields. Everyone had already fully recognized Fei Yang's technical strength.
But recognition was one thing; that had all been from the public. This time, however, it was official.
This meant the authorities had also acknowledged Fei Yang's technical strength and were going to give it official recognition.
