"What do you know? How could projected data possibly be that precise? It was all calculated. This number is already incredible!" Professor Zhao shot him a glare. Did he think I didn't know it hadn't reached the projected data? Didn't he see that I hadn't said anything?
They needed to give the kid confidence. Saying that out loud would only discourage him!
Besides, the estimates the kid had given before had clearly been overconfident. They had called for an improvement of more than 40 percent over the current figures.
"Professor Zhao, how about this? Shut it down step by step, and we'll replace the specialized fuel." Jiang Yan Hai smiled and added.
"Specialized fuel?" Everyone froze for a moment.
"Yes. Since it isn't a conventional design, I designed a specialized fuel formula for it. It should increase its thrust even further. The fuel has already been delivered, and it isn't difficult to produce," Jiang Yan Hai said with a smile.
"This... that works." Professor Zhao paused. Wasn't it just replacing the fuel? It did not matter. The engine had not yet undergone other long-term test runs, destructive testing, and so on, but for now, it was operating very smoothly.
That alone made it extremely valuable for research. Even if other problems emerged later, they could find ways to solve them!
Replacing the fuel was simple. They merely had to connect another fuel supply line. Everything had been prepared in advance anyway. It was a private research institute, so they could do whatever they wanted as long as no major accident occurred.
As for everything else, wasn't it just a matter of how much money they spent?
If money could solve it, then it was not a problem.
Half an hour later, all the equipment had been prepared once again.
"Ignition!"
