"The world's number one rocket is impressive, isn't it?"
"Extremely impressive. The commotion felt exaggerated even on television."
"Do you know why I'm seeking you out?"
"No idea."
In a Chang'an restaurant, Tao Changhong sat opposite Li Xi, one being the Chief Designer of Yun-20, and the other the CZ-5 Chief Designer, facing each other.
Li Xi said, "The New Yuan-2A with its three 6-meter diameter booster bodies was transported in one go by the An-1250. Design one yourself. No need to carry three, just one 6-meter diameter booster body will do."
Tao Changhong replied, "You're in Jingu, just ship by sea directly, why would you need air transport?"
"..."
It was a joke. Li Xi had no authority to demand Tao Changhong to design planes; they had simply bumped into each other and struck up a conversation.
