Chapter 188 – Onward to Greatness!

“Train activation completed.”

As soon as the train’s AI made this announcement, the two headlights on the front of the vehicle lit up.

Simultaneously, numerous virtual projections also appeared inside the cab. These projections displayed various images and data that Chen Yu could not understand.

Taking a seat on the conductor’s seat, Chen Yu looked at the screens and joysticks on his sides. He then asked, “Is there no steering wheel or accelerator?”

“The whole train is operated by touch,” the AI replied with its electronically synthesized voice.

“Tell me how to operate it.”

“Do you wish to operate in manual mode or smart mode?”

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Yu said, “I’ll have a better sense of control in manual mode, so introduce the manual mode first.”

“Yes, Chief Conductor. The Maglev General Construction Level 3 Engineering Vehicle is divided into two sets of operating systems. While in transportation mode, the train moves via electrodynamic suspension (EDS). Firstly, the superconductor at the bottom of each car will be cooled. The cooled superconductors will then interact with the electromagnetic track to form a strong magnetic field. Simultaneously, the artificial intelligence will control the extra-long stator synchronous linear motor to complete the energization of the three-phase stator windings, generating a moving magnetic field that…”

While explaining, the AI Dimwit had even thoughtfully displayed a dynamic video.

The video showed a diagram of a long-stator synchronous linear motor’s working principle. The complicated circuit and wire diagram were written with many professional terms such as pole pitch, stator lamination, stator winding, linear generator winding, excitation winding, etc.

The video’s detailedness made it seem as if the AI was afraid Chen Yu couldn’t understand its explanation.

Meanwhile, Chen Yu thoughtfully crossed his legs and maintained the posture of a wise man. He would sometimes fall into deep thought, sometimes nod, sometimes pinch his chin, and sometimes slide his finger across the crystal ball…

“Because of the large number of motor stages, take the number of slots per pole per phase q=1; To facilitate the arrangement of the windings…

“…Since the number of slots per pole per phase is q=1, the uniform air gap is adopted, and the harmonic magnetomotive force of the stator teeth is relatively large, the conductor should pay attention to the current density and the numerical change of the rated voltage and rated current of the excitation device when applying power…

“…Standard calculation example: A maglev train has a length of 23.32 meters, a total weight of 107.6T, an ultra-low speed stage of 400 kilometers per hour, and a running resistance of 60.22kN…

“…The parameter values calculated so far are: At 75 degrees Celsius and 215Hz frequency, the stator resistance of each phase of the 300M power supply section is 0.2886Ω, and the stator leakage reactance is 21…”

[What? What? What?]

[What is it talking about?]

[Wonderful. This is too exciting.]

[Demon…]

[Don’t understand. Skip it.]

[I get the feeling that UP’s reviews are becoming more and more unfriendly.]

[Most of it is middle school mathematics, yet you guys actually don’t understand it?]

[Isn’t it elementary school mathematics?]

[Looking at the host’s thoughtful appearance, he must understand the explanation.]

[Duh. Anyone that reviews technology should be full of professional knowledge.]

[Awesome…]

[Awesome+1.]

Five minutes later, the introduction of the complex control principles and control methods finally ended.

Turning to look at Little Peach, Chen Yu asked, “Did you understand the explanation?”

“Huh?” Little Peach replied with a blank look.

“Hah…”

Sighing, Chen Yu stood up and patted Little Peach on her shoulder. “You can’t always think about having fun. You should learn more knowledge. Listen to the explanation a few more times and try to operate the train. I’m going out to get some air.”

After saying so, Chen Yu patted the non-existent dust off his dragon clothes. He then walked out of the cab with his hands on his back, leaving the camera hovering inside the cab.

After entering the living area and answering nature’s call, Chen Yu laid on a sofa and rested for five minutes. Guessing that the government’s people should be arriving soon, he got up and returned to the cab.

At this time, Little Peach was still listening to the AI’s explanation with dumbfounded eyes.

“Do you understand now?” Chen Yu asked.

“Huh?” Little Peach responded with a blank look.

“Forget it. This knowledge is still too profound for you. Take it slowly,” Chen Yu said as he waved his hand. He then faced the camera and said, “It’s been over a dozen minutes already. Let’s stop this engineering vehicle’s introduction here. Next, we’ll start the actual operation and review.”

After saying so, Chen Yu approached the giant windshield and stared out of it. Immediately, he noticed a bunch of police vehicles, helicopters, and camouflage jeeps parked outside the train.

As Chen Yu wasn’t wearing the protective suit, he couldn’t casually expose himself to the outside world. Turning to Little Peach, he instructed, “Head outside and find the person in charge. Bring me the letter of intent and whatever else they brought.”

“Okay!” Little Peach nodded and trotted out of the cab. After exiting the train through the first carriage, she placed her hands on her hips as she stood on the snowy ground. “Who’s in charge?”

“It’s me! It’s me! I’m in charge here for the time being!” A young man hurriedly came running over at Little Peach’s question. After nodding in salutations, he greeted, “h.e.l.lo, Madam.”

“I am now Gonggong[1],” Little Peach said as she pointed at her eunuch uniform.

“G-Gonggong…” the youth responded in surprise.

“Mhm. Do you have anything to give me?”

As the youth looked at the girl, who didn’t seem particularly smart, he thought to make some polite conversation. However, when he recalled the order given by his superior, he promptly held himself back and handed over the small box in his hands. “We are very thankful for Mr. King’s cooperation to benefit the country and the people. Please relay our grat.i.tude to Mr. King. The whole of China will unconditionally support his maglev construction plan.”

“Okay, I’ll pa.s.s it on.” Accepting the box with one hand, Little Peach waved her other hand at the young man before returning to the train.

“Hu…”

Meanwhile, the young man breathed out a sigh of relief before taking a few steps back. As he admired the engineering vehicle before him, he could not help but smack his lips in envy…

…

“My King, for you.”

“Mhm.”

After accepting the box from Little Peach, Chen Yu turned away from the camera.

When he removed the box’s lid, the first thing he saw was a handwritten thank-you letter with many stamps at the end of it.

After carefully reading the letter once, he set it aside and picked up the folder inside the box.

Tear!

Opening the seal, Chen Yu pulled out stack after stack of doc.u.ments. He found that these doc.u.ments were detailed construction plans that included the sites selected, geological structure of the chosen route, difficulty of excavation, etc.

There were three road maps, and Chen Yu was recommended to use them for reference.

After earnestly studying the doc.u.ments, Chen Yu chose the second road map, which started from Beijing’s Changping and ended at Shanghai’s Qingpu. The route was a straight line that had no transit stations planned along the way.

After making his decision, Chen Yu returned the lid onto the box and picked up the road map he selected. Sitting down at the conductor’s seat, he loudly said, “Dimwit.”

“I’m here.”

“Activate smart mode and head to Beijing’s Changping District.”

“I’m sorry, but your target location isn’t recognized. Please manually select the destination’s coordinates.”

Immediately, a virtual projection that measured half a meter wide appeared before Chen Yu. The projection showed a flat two-dimensional map.

After observing the map for a while, Chen Yu found his desired location. He then tapped on a point in Changping District.”

“Planning route.

“Route planning completed. Vehicle has deviated from the route. Making corrections.”

Boom…

Accompanied by loud rumbling sounds, the 300-meter behemoth started vibrating.

Everyone outside the train could feel the numbing vibrations through the soles of their feet.

This was the power of machinery and technology…

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Half a minute later, rows of caterpillar tracks emerged from the train’s flat bottom and dug the ground.

These tracks had sharp spikes to enhance their friction with the ground. Inside the tracks, there were driving wheels, track rollers, guide wheels, and sprockets.

At this point, the engineering vehicle looked more like a tank than a train.

Creak… Creak… Creak…

The ma.s.sive vehicle slowly moved forward under the power of countless driving wheels. And as the th.o.r.n.y tracks rubbed against the snow, they generated a strange noise that numbed one’s scalp.

“This…is also a weapon, right?” the young man mumbled to himself as he looked at the metal behemoth before him.

Meanwhile, inside the train’s cab, Chen Yu excitedly rubbed his palms together when he sensed the train moving. Pointing forward, he commanded, “Accelerate! Onward to greatness!”
