He took the elevator to the fallout shelter. Just as he was about to bring the nutrient supply sample to Wang Fangping and observe the results of the Tiger II project team, he happened to see the two people he wanted to see standing in front of the lab.
Looking at them, they seemed to be arguing about something.
"Bringing the X1 bacteria into the fallout shelter, are you crazy?!" Fang Wei, the leader of the Tiger II project, roared at Wang Fangping.
The X1 bacteria was the bacteria that controlled the zombies.
"I'm doing this for the experiment, for science! And it's not like you haven't been vaccinated before, what are you afraid of?! "Wang Fangping cursed as he was sprayed with saliva.
The two argued until their faces were red. If it weren't for the people pulling them back and the guards watching, the two "polite people" would have fought each other.
"And then? Create an X3 or X4 that can't be killed by the vaccine? "Fang Wei mocked.
"All the experiments are within a safe framework. I only need a small piece of DNA code. You are completely biased and mistrustful of life science!"
"Hehe, we detected the X1 bacteria on the touch panel of the quantum computer in the lab. You think this is within a safe framework?" Fang Wei was furious.
Due to the limited research facilities in the fallout shelter, there was only one laboratory level quantum computer. But this thing was indispensable in research in the 22nd century. A lot of overly complex calculations and data models could only be completed by it. Although the Fishbone base offered a reward of 50,000 crystals for the experimental quantum computer in the Sixth Street, unfortunately, no one had found it. Therefore, the 17 research teams in the fallout shelter all shared the same quantum computer.
"Oh! My god, which idiot touched the keyboard without washing his hands? I'll investigate, but you- Ah, boss. " Just as he was about to argue with his colleague, Wang Fangping noticed that Jiang Chen was already standing next to them, so he immediately stopped talking.
When they saw Jiang Chen, the people in the hallway immediately dispersed.
"What happened?"
Wang Fangping immediately explained to Jiang Chen before Fang Wei could. "Here's what happened. Because the project to generate electricity has reached a bottleneck, I asked the guards to go outside and collect a tube of tissue cells from the back of the zombie's neck, which is the X1 bacteria. "
"X1 bacteria? What does this have to do with the power generating algae? "Jiang Chen was surprised.
"Because the photosynthesis efficiency of the X1 bacteria is very high. In order to improve the solar energy conversion efficiency of the algae, my researchers proposed a possibility to implant the DNA related to chloroplasts in the nucleus of the X1 bacteria into the algae that is currently being developed. "
"Heh, what if the seaweed shows similar characteristics to the X1 bacteria?" Fang Wei Xian interrupted with a sneer.
Holy shit, this is a big problem!
Fang Weixian's words shocked Jiang Chen. At first, he didn't think that Wang Fangping was doing anything wrong. Scientific research should be pursued by any means necessary to achieve results. But when he thought that this thing had to be brought to the modern world to be raised, he immediately became afraid.
He didn't want another Resident Evil to happen in the modern world.
"That's impossible, you don't understand genetic technology at all." Wang Fangping's face turned red.
"But I understand the risks of technology." Fang Wei Xian rejected Wang Fangping's point of view.
"Okay, stop arguing." Jiang Chen impatiently interrupted the argument between the two.
The two immediately shut their mouths. But from the way they looked at each other, it was clear that neither side was willing to give in to the other.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment and looked at Wang Fangping. "The DNA extraction from the X1 bacteria will stop here. Just like Fang Wei Xian said, research should be strictly limited to a safe framework. All samples implanted with the X1 bacteria DNA must be destroyed immediately. "
"… Yes," Wang Fangping said with a sullen face.
Fang Wei Xian had the upper hand as the corner of his mouth raised proudly.
Jiang Chen patted him on the shoulder and used an encouraging tone to comfort him. "It's good to be bold and creative, but you can't ignore the risk. Also, this is the production sample of the improved nutrient supply. Take it to see if it passes the test. "
Although his research results were rejected, and he inevitably felt a little frustrated, Wang Fangping was not the kind of narrow-minded person. He took a deep breath and recovered from his depressed mood.
"Okay."
Wang Fangping took the nutrient supply from Jiang Chen's hand and left.
Then Jiang Chen turned to Fang Wei Xian.
"In the future, report this to the camp, don't solve it in private. You're not an uneducated person, what can arguing solve the problem? "
"Yes," Fang Wei Xian said awkwardly.
The internal conflict could only be resolved by hitting each other. Jiang Chen couldn't think of a good way to reconcile the relationship between the researchers.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I heard the design of the Tiger II was completed, so I came to take a look. The data model, is it convenient for you to show me? "
"Of course! Please come with me. " When Fang Wei Xian heard Jiang Chen ask about the research project, he was instantly energized as he quickly walked to the computer room.
Jiang Chen followed Fang Wei Xian to the computer room and saw the legendary quantum computer.
This computer was similar to the "game console" he picked up in Fallout Shelter 05, but its computing power was clearly a level higher than the hybrid algorithm supercomputer. The computer was the size of a van, and the interfaces of all sizes were densely packed on the surface.
From the outside, the quantum computer was surprisingly simple. But from Fang Wei Xian's careful movements on the touch panel, it was obvious how precious this thing was.
Soon, a blue light emerged from the holographic device on the side and weaved into a miniature Tiger II model.
Different from the previous Tiger, this "Tiger II" had a turret design. It was 10.7 meters long and 4.1 meters wide with a rectangular body. The turret was located at the back of the car, and the tip of the barrel was level with the front armor. It weighed 63 tons, and the armor material was grade A steel.
"This Tiger II's battlefield positioning is still a tank destroyer, but it also has the role of supporting artillery, so the defense is mainly focused on the front armor and turret armor. Other than the main cannon, there is also a 10mm heavy machine gun welded to the top of the turret to attack approaching targets. Of course, words alone can't reflect its actual combat effectiveness, so let me show you. "
After briefly introducing the parameters of the Tiger II, Fang Wei Xian pressed another button on the touch panel.
The holographic image changed, and the bottom of the Tiger II appeared in a desert. The seven pairs of wheels under the steel armor began to spin as the Tiger II began to move at full speed in the desert. The scenery began to change, from the desert to the city, and from the city to the jungle.
"This is a model that simulates the physical environment in reality. Basically, the combat performance of the tank is replicated on this holographic image. Next, I will demonstrate the actual combat effectiveness of the Tiger II. "
Looking at Jiang Chen's shocked expression, Fang Wei Xian proudly pressed a button on the touch panel.
A line of words appeared on the holographic image.
The scenery changed again, and the Tiger II model reappeared in the empty desert environment. At the same time, four soldiers carrying the "Python" anti-tank rocket launchers appeared in four different directions around the Tiger II.
Four rockets were launched at the same time, respectively hitting the front, side, rear armor, and turret of the Tiger II. Flames exploded, but when the smoke dissipated, only the rear armor of the Tiger II showed some degree of damage.
Jiang Chen saw the power of the Python rocket with his own eyes. The "Chief" main battle tank that was destroyed in the civil war had a large hole in the front armor. Although he didn't experience the war, from the launch to the hit, he saw it all in the drone's cached image.
"Whether it's against individual anti-tank weapons or the main cannon of other tanks, the Tiger II has a certain degree of self-defense. Of course, because it's not a main battle tank, I don't recommend pushing it to the front line to engage in close combat with other tanks. "
Then, Fang Wei Xian demonstrated the survivability of the Tiger II against other pre-war tanks. Overall, it was quite good. Other than the "Wanderer" tank's Type-52 particle cannon, most of the tank-class kinetic energy weapons could be blocked by the front armor.
As to the power of the Type-50 electromagnetic pulse cannon, because Jiang Chen had seen it many times, Fang Wei Xian didn't demonstrate it. Compared to the original "truck-carrying cannon" Tiger II, only the armor was improved, and the main cannon was not changed.
"What do you think? Are you satisfied with this Tiger II?" Fang Wei Xian already got the answer from Jiang Chen's face, but he still asked proudly.
Compared to Wang Fangping's slickness, Fang Wei Xian was more extroverted. He treated people with the arrogance of a high-tech talent. Although he restrained himself in front of Jiang Chen, the dictator, he would occasionally subconsciously show it.
But Jiang Chen didn't mind. For talent, as long as it wasn't an excessive weakness, he could tolerate it.
"Haha, very satisfied. What about the production cost? "Jiang Chen smiled with satisfaction.
"It's all listed on this list." Fang Wei Xian handed Jiang Chen a graphene card.
The first few were fine, but the long list of rare earth minerals gave Jiang Chen a headache just by looking at it. The problem of rare earth resources must be solved as soon as possible. It was too difficult to rely on resource recovery to fill the gap in industrial demand.
