Xu Bin estimated that with the bottleneck in engine technology, dostic research institutions would likely find it hard to make a breakthrough in a short period.
It could take five years.
Or perhaps even longer, like ten years.
But for soone working in aerospace, how many decades does one have in a lifeti?
Therefore, Xu Bin was determined to push Mist City Arts and Science University to put in more effort. He hoped that the top-tier technical talents trained by the university’s Aerospace Academy could overco this bottleneck.
Even if the bottleneck couldn’t be resolved by their efforts alone, collaborating with the Space Administration to jointly research engine technology could be a viable path. With complenting strengths, progress might be faster.
However, it would depend on whether the Space Administration was willing to collaborate.
After all, Director Chen had just expressed personally that he was very willing to see technical research cooperation between the Space Administration, Mist City Arts and Science University’s Aerospace Academy, and Feiyue Aerospace.
"I hope our collaboration can go further. There’s still a long way to go for our country’s aerospace developnt."
Director Chen said with a sense of emotion.
"Absolutely."
Xu Bin agreed with Director Chen’s statent.
Deepening collaboration would help contribute more effectively to the country’s aerospace industry.
"Principal Xu, it’s getting late. It’s been a pleasure to chat with you again. I have another eting starting soon, so I won’t be able to see you off personally."
Director Chen glanced at his watch and smiled as he spoke to Xu Bin.
"Alright then, Director Chen, you should get back to your work."
Xu Bin nodded quickly.
As the Vice Director of the Space Administration, Director Chen certainly had follow-up etings to host after the last mission of Pang Wu, especially given its successful launch.
"Let arrange a car for you."
Director Chen gave instructions to an assistant nearby to call for a car, which then took Xu Bin out of the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.
anwhile, outside the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, Huang Youjie, Lin Zhirou, Wen Ruohan, Zhang Yu, and others were waiting for Xu Bin. Xu Bin had sent a ssage to Huang earlier via Whatsapp, telling him he’d be coming out soon.
"Yue, over here!"
From a distance, Huang Youjie spotted Yue coming out of the center and waved enthusiastically.
Seeing Huang and the others, Xu Bin jogged over and smiled, "Director Chen didn’t treat to a al. Co on, where are we eating?"
Before entering the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, Huang had wondered if they should wait and eat with Xu Bin. Now they had their answer—Director Chen turned out to be extrely busy. Though he invited Yue in for a chat, he didn’t even have ti to share a al. Hahaha!
"Hehe, Principal Xu, I’ve already booked a restaurant!"
Wen Ruohan replied with a beaming smile.
"Great!"
Xu Bin nodded in satisfaction. No surprise there—after being his personal secretary for so many years, she handled things flawlessly.
And so, the group went on to have a al. After dinner, they all returned to their hotel to rest.
The next day, Xu Bin and his group departed from Jiuquan and continued along the Hexi Corridor, soon arriving in Lanzhou.
In Lanzhou, Xu Bin received a call from Zhu Youzhao, the head of Mist City Arts and Science University’s Film Academy. Director Zhu inford him that their team had also arrived in Lanzhou.
As a result, Xu Bin decided to et with Director Zhu and the "Hexi Corridor" docuntary production team in Lanzhou before resuming his road trip.
Xu Bin picked a fine hotel in Lanzhou where he hosted a lavish gathering to wish the "Hexi Corridor" production success. During the event, he also reunited with familiar faces from the production team of the docuntary series "A Bite of Xia Country."
Seeing them again, Xu Bin was reminded of the early days of the Film Academy, and he couldn’t help but feel nostalgic.
In the blink of an eye, several years had passed.
There were noticeably many new faces in the team, likely outstanding students selected from recent graduating classes to infuse fresh blood into the team.
After all, a production team must not remain static; it needs constant renewal to stay vibrant. Moreover, as the team’s production commitnts grew year by year, it wasn’t feasible to rely solely on the original mbers to shoulder the increasing workload.
That would be unfair exploitation, so naturally, new mbers were added.
"Students, seeing your passion and your efforts to docunt Xia Country’s history and culture through film to convey a certain spirit makes incredibly joyful."
Before the al started, Xu Bin stood up and delivered a few simple words to encourage everyone to work hard, take shooting seriously, and create an excellent docuntary, "Hexi Corridor."
"You’ll soon delve deep into the Hexi Corridor. Let share my expectations here and now. I hope you will prioritize your safety during the filming process while striving to showcase the allure of the Hexi Corridor to the fullest, narrating its story from all aspects—geography, history, and culture. Present the Hexi Corridor comprehensively to the audience."
With a serious expression, Xu Bin addressed the students and staff in the room.
Within the filmmaking team, so mbers were still current students of Mist City Arts and Science University. anwhile, the first batch of team mbers had already graduated and were now formally employees of Feiyue dia under the Feiyue Group.
