"Boss, if the factory cooperates, the machine I designed can definitely be completed before the end of this month.
Moreover, I have complete confidence in this machine. If this new machine succeeds, the lenses it can produce will have apertures ten times larger than the maximum aperture designed for the machine you built before. In other words, the largest lenses this new machine can produce will reach a staggering twenty meters.
If we can truly manufacture a telescope with such a large aperture, it will definitely cause a sensation throughout the industry.
No domestic manufacturer can currently produce such a large astronomical telescope. And even if some domestic manufacturer could produce an astronomical telescope with the same aperture as ours, their production costs would be hundreds or even thousands of times higher than ours." After thinking it over carefully, Wang Hong spoke seriously.
Hearing Wang Hong's words, Zhang Yi shot up from his chair and asked in a slightly uncontrollable voice, "Master Wang, is that true? Once this machine is built, it can really produce lenses for twenty-meter-class large aperture telescopes?"
Zhang Yi knew far more than Wang Hong about this field. Not a single manufacturer in all of Hua Country could produce astronomical telescope lenses over ten meters in diameter.
Of course, that was only temporary. It was said that many manufacturers had already begun researching this area.
However, these were trade secrets of those manufacturers, so Zhang Yi had no way of knowing. One thing he could be certain of was that if he really produced a twenty-meter-diameter primary lens for an astronomical telescope, it would not only shake the industry—it might even shock the nation.
It was precisely because Zhang Yi knew so much more than Wang Hong that he was so stunned.
"Yes, Boss. Everything I
