Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 822 - 821: Shock and Awe

Soon, a glimmer of light appeared in space, the glow emitted during welding.

Qu Xiaoming was highly focused now, observing a display screen on his wrist while watching the welding robot work.

The display screen on his wrist was part of the spacesuit and could connect to many different devices.

This portable display screen can assist astronauts with many tasks.

At the moment, the display screen is connected to the welding robot, showing some readings at the welding site.

Through these readings, Qu Xiaoming could understand the welding conditions, checking if the welded parts were firm.

All the readings on the display screen are normal, indicating that the welding robot is operating steadily, and no anomalies were found at the welding spot.

After finding the welding robot working properly, Qu Xiaoming was somewhat relieved.

Just moments ago, the team leader had explained to him that the welding of this component was particularly challenging.

Facing such a tough challenge on the first mission of 243, Qu Xiaoming was somewhat worried.

But now everything is going very well, which allows him to be at ease.

While Qu Xiaoming was carrying out the welding task, his teammates were busy with their respective tasks.

Some were responsible for controlling the propulsion equipment, transporting components to the designated location.

Others were collaborating with their teammates to carry out the positioning work of the components.

Meanwhile, some were responsible for controlling the testing equipment to test the previously completed work.

Testing work is essential during the construction process, requiring many tests before the completed parts can be put into use.

A space station is not something to be joked about, any unexpected event could cause unimaginable damage.

Therefore, every section from construction to being put into use must undergo numerous tests.

The five astronauts of team 0137 thus began their day's mission.

In this situation, Qu Xiaoming's dream journey as a rookie astronaut began.

It's uncertain to what extent he can develop in the future, whether he can meet Jiang Cheng's expected level, as these things need time to prove.

Three months quietly passed, during which Jiang Cheng was busy with the spaceship construction.

In these three months, numerous problems occurred with the spaceship construction.

Jiang Cheng's technical staff, though excellent, had never handled such advanced objects as spaceships before.

Building something so advanced for the first time inevitably involves some errors.

Problems arose during the installation of the rear thruster.

Mainly due to not considering the conditions during curvature flight, many technicians were unaware of the special nuances of curvature flight.

Therefore, the space between thrusters was not adequately set, only to be discovered by Jiang Cheng after installation.

When Jiang Cheng discovered this issue, the thrusters had already been installed.

You must know that once installed, the spaceship's thrusters cannot be dismantled.

If dismantled, this power-providing system for spaceships would be rendered unusable.

In the end, Jiang Cheng had no choice but to remove all the thrusters and manufacture a new batch for installation.

Luckily, manufacturing thrusters isn't tremendously difficult, and it didn't delay too much time.

Only, due to the scrapping of this batch of thrusters, Jiang Cheng lost entire US Dollar.

This loss was due to insufficient experience, considered as tuition in the learning process.

Although the technicians responsible for thruster installation caused an immediate loss of one million US Dollar to Jiang Cheng,

Jiang Cheng did not blame them, instead comforting those who felt guilty for their errors.

This wasn't something caused by their carelessness; they simply hadn't installed such a spaceship thrusters and were unaware of the considerations during curvature flight.

This incident was just due to a lack of experience, not the responsibility of those technicians.

To Jiang Cheng, the growth of his technical staff pales in comparison to the lost million US Dollar in importance.

In any case, Jiang Cheng truly doesn't care about money like this; such an amount means nothing to him.

When there's a surplus of something, it tends to lose its value, describing Jiang Cheng's current situation.

Through this spaceship construction, he developed a batch of qualified technicians, which is what Jiang Cheng most wants to see.

As long as his technicians are willing to learn, Jiang Cheng is willing to pay such a costly tuition.

Jiang Cheng believes that with this spaceship building experience, next time they encounter similar tasks, they won't commit such basic mistakes.

Anyway, Jiang Cheng doesn't plan to build just one spaceship, intending to construct more than five spaceships in the first batch.

There will be ample opportunities for them to showcase their abilities in the future, as long as they perform well when the time comes.

Similar mistakes like with the rear thrusters happened several times during the spaceship building.

Every time, Jiang Cheng didn't blame the technicians but instead let them summarize and learn from it.

Such magnanimous conduct made the technicians even more driven.

The chance to work under someone as great as Jiang Cheng motivated them to work hard; otherwise, they'd be letting him down.

Finally, thanks to the efforts of these technicians, the spaceship building progress not only wasn't delayed by these incidents but instead was accelerated due to increased work efficiency.

The entire spaceship construction pace exceeded the planned timeline significantly.

The construction speed-up was unexpected by Jiang Cheng, perhaps a reward from heaven for his generosity.

With everyone's hard work, the first human spaceship was officially completed after three months of construction.

Inside a massive factory, a silver-white spaceship stood in the center.

This spaceship was far beyond ordinary imagination in size, resembling a small mountain. Its enormous size gives off a sense of awe rather than cumbersome.

The gigantic spaceship rested on the ground, reminiscent of a sleeping beast.

When this beast formally takes off, that's when it reveals its might.

In the face of this colossal metal creature, everyone becomes extraordinarily insignificant.

This might be the greatness of human creations, completely different from the natural landscape.

This spaceship is a symbol of humans conquering nature, a key to humanity stepping into the universe.

After the final piece of equipment within the spaceship was installed and passed the last check, all the technicians cheered, celebrating the spaceship's completion.

During these three months, all the technicians dedicated a tremendous amount of sweat to this spaceship.
