Set Off, Aeromodelling Event

Around 8 p.m., Professor Chen, Tang Rui, and Zhang Zhipeng left a restaurant beside the university.

“Within a week at most, we can have the prototype ready for you, and the cost won’t be too high.

“You should quickly register your company, and when the time comes, just sign the contract directly. You don’t need to worry about anything else; I’ll take care of it for you.”

Zhang Zhipeng confidently told Tang Rui.

And he wasn’t boasting.

As the vice president of an aircraft manufacturing company under AVIC, he had the ability to handle this easily.

Things that seemed troublesome for Tang Rui were just a piece of cake for him.

“Thank you, Senior. I’ll go find an agent tomorrow and expedite the company registration. We can sign the contract next week.”

Tang Rui hurriedly assured him that he wouldn’t drag his feet.

“Alright, it’s settled then.” Zhang Zhipeng nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

“Professor, Senior, take your time. I’ll head out first.”

“Sure, be safe on the way.” Professor Chen waved his hand.

After exchanging pleasantries, Tang Rui turned and left.

As for where Professor Chen and Senior Zhang were going next, he had no involvement.

This dinner was very rewarding.

He had gotten to know a senior and strengthened his relationship with his professor.

Next, all he needed to do was register a company, and the rest of the tasks would be taken care of by others.

He would visit the police department for the bidding process, and then he just needed to wait for Senior Zhang to provide the goods.

However, the profit from this contract wouldn’t be substantial.

Even for an order in the millions, he would only earn a few million.

After all, it was a police department order, and he couldn’t be too aggressive with pricing.

Ever since he profited from Huawei, he felt a bit disdainful toward smaller amounts like a hundred or ten thousand.

This mindset wasn’t good and required reflection.

So, Tang Rui drove straight to the “Qian Shen Bathhouse” to have a bath and clear his mind.

The technician was excellent.

The massage felt very comfortable.

By the time he returned home, it was already 11 p.m.

After casually downloading several mathematics books from the digital library, he put on his study headset and slept.

The next day, after getting up, he went to find an agent to register his company.

The registered capital was 50 million, and it was fully paid.

Although it wasn’t necessary, he didn’t just want to play around; he intended to invest money to do things properly.

So, he paid the amount early, and these funds might still not be enough.

Even if he didn’t establish a production department, he needed a research department.

Research equipment was not cheap.

But even if he invested a lot, it was necessary to do so.

After all, the devices enhanced by the system panel would still require reverse engineering, and without equipment, how could he do it?

Moreover, having people under him would make things easier.

If he wanted to manufacture something, someone could go and purchase the components, so he didn’t have to worry about it.

Even if there were no components available in the market, he could directly have people make them in the laboratory.

So, in this aspect, he spared no expense.

He didn’t need to worry about registering the company.

However, he still had to personally inspect and choose the location for the office or laboratory.

Office buildings were definitely not suitable.

Especially high-rise office buildings; they swayed in the wind and couldn’t meet the installation and experimental requirements of some equipment, let alone the research requirements.

So, he spent a whole day searching and finally found an abandoned repair plant.

The location was quite remote, close to Yongning.

As a result, land and property prices were not high. The entire 11,600 square meters of the factory building was rented for only 600,000.

Originally, he wanted to buy the land, but the owner simply refused to sell.

Even if he couldn’t find anyone to rent it, the owner still wouldn’t sell.

There was no other way.

So, Tang Rui had no choice but to sign a three-year contract with the owner.

As for three years later…

If he still couldn’t establish his own research institute by then, he might as well jump off the Yangtze River bridge.

After a busy day, Tang Rui finally sorted out most of the company’s affairs.

Hiring people and such could wait; there was certainly no shortage of people nowadays.

He didn’t need research-oriented talents; what he needed were technical hands.

Whether they had independent research capabilities wasn’t important; what mattered was whether they could perform technical analysis.

Such requirements were too simple for graduate students.

If you asked them to do research…

It would be somewhat challenging.

But if you asked them to use existing technologies to create some fancy things, that would be no problem at all.

Especially for graduate students majoring in materials, they could come up with all sorts of fancy stuff.

In the evening, after taking a shower, Tang Rui came to the living room to do some maintenance on the drone.

After all, he would be showing it off in public tomorrow, so the drone’s appearance was also important.

He took out a piece of linen cloth and wiped off the dust from the fuselage.

Buzz…

The phone vibrated twice.

He picked it up and saw a message from Zhou Tao.

Zhou Tao reminded him to go fly model aircraft together tomorrow.

Tang Rui replied casually, “Got it,” and put down the phone.

But then, the phone vibrated again.

“Bro, we’ve already made plans with Shuyao tomorrow to go hiking.”

Tang Rui saw a message from Zhou Ziqi, and his mouth twitched.

“Tomorrow won’t do. How about the day after tomorrow?”

“Bro, are you trying to rebel? Should I let our mother personally contact you?”

“No matter what you say, tomorrow I’m really busy.”

“Is it a real emergency? Is it very important?”

“Tomorrow, I need to go back to school for a while to participate in a model aircraft flying event organized jointly by the school’s model aircraft club and the civil aviation club.”

Hah. He finally had an opportunity to let the drone fly without any restrictions. He wouldn’t just give that up; no one could change that.

After a while, Li Shuyao sent a message.

“Are you going to participate in the model aircraft flying event tomorrow?”

“Yes, so I’m sorry, I can’t go hiking.”

“Can I join you to take a look? If it’s not convenient, never mind. I’m just curious about model aircraft.”

“Sure, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning.”

“Thank you, I appreciate it.”

After putting down his phone, Tang Rui rubbed his face, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

He didn’t expect that Li Shuyao would also want to join him for the event.

Actually, bringing someone along wouldn’t be a bother.

Every time there was a model aircraft flying event, outsiders would also participate.

Many model enthusiasts would want to join in the fun upon hearing the news.

So, bringing someone along wouldn’t be a big deal.

The main point was that Li Shuyao seemed to be genuinely interested in model aircraft.

This made him a little happy.

After all, having the same interests made it easier to bond and play together with someone.

Otherwise, it could be quite uncomfortable when educational backgrounds and interests differed, making it difficult to find common ground.

These emotional aspects were harder to change and reconcile compared to differences in lifestyle or personality.

Although he wasn’t good at wooing girls, he understood marriage.

After all, his parents’ divorce had deeply affected him.

So, he had done some research on this topic.

There was a time when he really didn’t want to get married.

Now, he realized it was because he hadn’t met someone as beautiful as Li Shuyao.

After a brief daydream, Tang Rui packed his things, confirmed the meeting time with Li Shuyao, and then went to sleep.

Early the next morning, he packed all the necessary equipment and set off in his car.

Today, he was going to be the participant that stood out the most in the model aircraft event.
