Chen Shi came every day, but after six days, it was to no avail.
Xiao Yuanlian was in charge of reception.
Every day, the reply was that the Bureau Chief was cultivating in seclusion. What a joke. In modern society, who would cultivate in seclusion like the abbot or abbot of the monastery? The monks of the current generation went to work and got off work normally. When it was time to get off work, they would take off their work clothes and regain their freedom. Furthermore, cultivating in seclusion was something that TV directors used to trick middle-aged housewives!
As a loyal believer in materialistic positivist science, Chen Shi had never believed in any demons or ghosts.
He didn't believe in Kung Fu either.
If they really had the ability.
If they could leap onto roofs and vault over walls and even fly into the sky, why didn't they show it?
During the War of Resistance, they said that they couldn't win against bullets. It didn't matter. They could use it to teach foreign boxers a lesson, right? If they had such ability, why would they hide it? It proved that they didn't have it! Actually, since ancient times, there was a saying that dispelled superstition. Wang Chong said that when people died, they would become ghosts. How did the clothes on the ghosts come out of nowhere? It was said that people who saw ghosts would see the clothes the ghosts wore. How they dressed, how they wore, and how they wore ornaments on their heads. Some ghosts dressed the same as living people. This didn't make sense! Clothes were inanimate objects. Could it be that they changed along with the soul? If people became ghosts after they died, then wouldn't the ground be filled with ghosts since ancient times?
Ghosts definitely didn't exist!
As for Kung Fu …
Give some face to those old men who insisted on Chinese martial arts. Let's not talk about it.
Speaking of Kung Fu, it was possible to strengthen the body. But what effect did it have? Chen Shi didn't believe in it. It was actually the dregs of feudal superstition!
"Little comrade, when will your Bureau Chief be free? We really have something urgent to talk to him about! " Before Chen Shi could finish, Zhang Qian, who was at the side, quickly stopped him and waved his hands. "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. We just encountered some problems with the design and wanted to talk to your Bureau Chief to understand the situation. It's fine. Your Bureau Chief can come whenever he's free. We'll wait, wait … "
"Chief wants you to go to Taohua Ao Base tomorrow. Don't come here anymore. We are very busy!" Xiao Yuanlian didn't want to be the receptionist, but it was her turn this week.
"Okay, okay, we'll go to Peach Blossom Gorge tomorrow. You're busy, you're busy!" Zhang Qian saw that Chen Shi still wanted to say something, so he quickly pulled him away.
"I don't believe that you can't even spare ten minutes in a few days. Even five minutes is fine. If you send us away with just one sentence, isn't that a waste of our time?" Chen Shi walked out of the door and could not help but vent his anger at Zhang Qian. He had originally rushed over excitedly, wanting to report to Lin Dong about their team's latest design. Who knew that he would be rejected at the door for the past few days. If it weren't for the fact that the room was filled with people coming and going in a hurry, training and working, with no one being idle, he would really think that Lin Dong was deceiving him.
"Chief Xiao Lin has too many research projects. Genetic medicine, virtual technology, and our large-scale mechas. Which one of them is simple? Old Chen, you have to understand! It's really not easy for him! "The more Zhang Qian thought about it, the more he felt that the burden on this young man's shoulders was too heavy.
"Of course I understand. I just want to share some of his burden!" Chen Shi was done complaining, and the anger in his heart subsided.
The next day.
Taohua Ao Base.
Chen Shi and Zhang Qian had gone to wait early. Because of the strong protests from the young people in the office, the two had to bring them along.
However, the captain of the genetic soldiers who came to escort them emphasized that they could visit the base, but they mustn't act like diehard fans seeing their idols. Speak up one by one, don't rush to speak, don't crowd around, and don't ask for autographs and photos. The Chief's time was very precious, and they mustn't waste it. Safety was the most important thing. No one could easily break the safety rules set by the higher-ups.
He warned them carefully.
Chen Shi and the others nodded in agreement.
After entering the base, they found that the security was even stricter than before. Not only was there a sentry every three steps, but the guards on both sides were also from different departments. After the inspection on the left side was done, the people on the right side had to be inspected again. The people on both sides completely disagreed with the results of the other side. They had to personally verify the results before they would let them go.
After going through many checkpoints and a full body inspection that was even more exaggerated than a water bath, Chen Shi, Zhang Qian, and the others finally reached the periphery of the experimental site.
Today, Elder Yan couldn't bring them in.
This was because, like all the other personnel, he had to undergo the same inspection and obtain multiple verifications before he could officially enter. The strict procedures made even a serious person like Chen Shi's heart jump. Of course, other than nervousness, he also felt a trace of excitement. This was because the stricter the procedures and the tighter the security, it meant that they were going further in the large-scale mecha project.
"Welcome!" Lin Dong took the initiative to shake hands and expressed his apology. "I've wasted your time. However, I'm still researching and the results aren't out yet. I can't spare too much time to meet you guys. I'm really sorry for making you guys come here so many times. Today is just the right time for everyone to come out and discuss the problems related to mecha. "
"Okay." Chen Shi felt a little better. This was the attitude one should have towards a professional!
"We don't dare, we don't dare." Zhang Qian wasn't as calm as him.
As for the few young people in the office.
When he shook hands with Lin Dong.
His hands were trembling.
He was so excited that he couldn't do anything about it.
In Chen Shi's heart, Lin Dong's manufacturing ability was heaven-defying. However, when it came to designing blueprints, he really wasn't that material. Not to mention himself, even if he randomly picked one of the few young people in the office, they would still be able to completely defeat this Xiao Lin. Of course, Chief Xiao Lin's real strength was in gene medicine and virtual technology. Therefore, as long as there was enough enthusiasm for mecha, he couldn't ask for more!
Previously, when the mecha had a successful breakthrough, Chen Shi's excitement was over and he went back to think about it calmly.
When the mecha moved, it probably wasn't the work of Chief Xiao Lin's blueprints.
It was that engine.
That super engine of unknown power actually made the wooden mecha move. If the design was optimized, then it would definitely be a big step forward.
Chen Shi didn't know which team was responsible for this super engine. Their core equipment was really too powerful. This was the key to the mecha being able to move. The super engine could also be developed under the leadership of Chief Xiao Lin, especially the driver. This was because Chief Xiao Lin's area of expertise included holographic and virtual technology. He was definitely an unparalleled expert in the computer field.
"It's like this, Chief Xiao Lin. I know that the information about the engine is too important. We won't ask about that. However, our team has this information. You can give us an upper and lower limit for the driving force. This number may not be the most accurate value in order to keep it confidential. You can set it within a range. We need to know this. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to reasonably design a more advantageous mecha. As for the mecha, Chief Xiao Lin, I suggest that we use metal to make it. Wood is very cheap, but we won't be thrifty to this extent. Most importantly, if we use metal to make the mecha, then we will be able to collect and record all kinds of data. Only then will we know what needs to be improved in the future. Only then will we be able to discover its advantages and disadvantages. " Chen Shi was a workaholic who did not care about his own family when he worked. Even though Zhang Qian had repeatedly reminded him to be careful with his words, when he saw Lin Dong, he could not help but speak his mind.
Chen Shi felt like there was a fishbone stuck in his throat if he didn't raise any suggestions for improvement when he saw an unreasonable problem.
Zhang Qian felt dizzy.
You found a problem and said it in front of everyone. Are the chiefs blind? No one can find these problems?
Chief Xiao Lin definitely had his reasons for doing that. No matter how bad he was, he was still the first person to develop mecha. You're asking him these common sense questions? It didn't mean that he didn't understand the design. It was just that he wasn't that professional. Moreover, there were some special data on the design that needed to be kept confidential. It couldn't be easily disclosed to the public. This was very normal!
A few of the young people in the office were sweating profusely.
My Boss is too awesome. He actually criticized the world's most famous mad scientist, "Mr. Wood", in front of everyone! It was hard to say if he would be laughed to death by his colleagues abroad if he said this!
"Your suggestion is very good." Lin Dong first praised the other party's honesty. After a slight pause, he said with some hesitation, "Actually, it's very difficult for me to give you a set of values. I'm afraid that even if I tell you, you won't believe it. Just like the last time you saw me move the wooden mecha, you still had doubts about its success. Listen to me first. It's like this. I don't think it's appropriate for you to come into contact with things that are too deep for the time being. Otherwise, it'll go against your beliefs and you'll feel conflicted when you work. My idea is to wait until your minds gradually accept these things, then I'll slowly tell you. "
"What? You're saying that we don't understand? "Chen Shi was angry as if he had been humiliated. How dare you talk to me like this in my field of expertise?
"Calm down, Old Chen. Cough, calm down!" Zhang Qian was frightened. Chen Shi was going to quarrel with Chief Xiao Lin?
"I can tell you, but I really can't guarantee that you'll understand!" Lin Dong smiled. "Now, at home and abroad, mecha design is divided into ten systems, including energy, transmission, skeleton, armor, weapons, plug-ins, perception, overall control, manipulation, and life support. Among them, the most important are the energy and transmission systems. It can be said that these are the core parts of the entire mecha. As for the others, they're also very important, but they must first have energy and transmission as the foundation. Otherwise, there's nothing to talk about. "
"Continue …" Chen Shi held his anger and listened to Lin Dong. According to what he said, he realized that this Chief Xiao Lin was not completely ignorant about mecha.
"In my previous blueprints, there are many things that don't exist. For example, weapons and plug-ins, as well as perception and life support. I won't consider these for now. My request to you is to try to design the skeleton and armor systems more reasonably. Try to optimize and improve on my previous blueprints, "Lin Dong said.
"But you have to admit that your blueprints are very unprofessional," Chen Shi argued.
"If I'm very professional, I don't need you to improve." Lin Dong smiled.
"That's a fallacy. Your blueprints are very unprofessional. We can't optimize and improve on them. If we follow the wrong path, we'll only make more mistakes. I don't want to walk on a path of no return from the beginning. Our designs must stand on a professional and reasonable basis. "Chen Shi insisted on his principles.
"In fact, I've successfully developed it." Lin Dong spread his hands. "I know you will definitely doubt my design. Reality has proven that my path is not a dead end."
"That's the credit of the super engine …" Chen Shi insisted that if the super engine was placed on a mecha with a more reasonable design, it would achieve better results.
"I developed the super engine. I know how to use it to its fullest potential. Chief Chen, from my perspective, I respect your professional knowledge. You are indeed very outstanding. However, I am also confident in my own field of research and development. What I need now is not a research partner. I need an assistant team to follow my instructions. Do you understand? If you can develop a better core device, you can follow your ideas. That is another path. I don't doubt that you will succeed. However, my path will definitely be faster than yours! I've already taken the first step. I'm going to take the second step. I need a colleague, not a competitor who doubts and challenges me! As for the direction of my research and development, Chief Chen, I know you have doubts. How about this? I'll play the 3D structure of the core device. If you can understand it, then we can discuss it. Okay? If you can't improve on the foundation of my research and development, then please follow my instructions. It doesn't matter if I'm messing around or not. Let's not talk about professional problems! "Lin Dong signaled for the holographic virtual system of the base's No. 2 experimental field to play a set of images.
The images were played very slowly.
It was very detailed.
From every angle, the core device of the mecha was completely dissected.
This 3D holographic image was so complicated that it would make people dizzy at first glance. There were nearly a hundred thousand different parts that interacted with each other, and there were also puzzling special engravings that matched with each other. Finally, there were tens of thousands of transformation devices that made people's heads swell three times. Everyone was watching, but no one could understand it. Not even a fraction of it.
This core device was different from the machines that Chen Shi knew. It was completely beyond his imagination.
If Lin Dong didn't say that he was the one who developed it.
Chen Shi would have suspected that he had picked up the engine of an alien spaceship.
"I lost. I can't understand it. You're the professional." Chen Shi admitted defeat. He knew that with his knowledge, he couldn't crack this core device. Even if he spent his entire life, it wouldn't be enough.
"It's not that I don't want to share the best thing. It's just that I can't explain it to you all." Lin Dong secretly gave ten points to his pretentiousness. If it was before he learned the Ancient Mechanism Secret Technique, he wouldn't be able to construct this kind of core device no matter how much he thought about it. But now, even if he had only comprehended the basic level of the Ancient Mechanism Secret Technique, it was enough to trick Chen Shi and the other true professionals until their legs were completely crippled.
"Turn it off. This thing has to be kept a secret." Elder Yan knew that the people present wouldn't be able to remember it. But when he saw that the holographic virtual system was still playing, he was scared.
"Okay." Lin Dong readily agreed.
"What do we do?" Zhang Qian was very depressed. The thing that Chief Xiao Lin developed was too advanced. He was like a small shrimp. He wanted to dive into the deep sea, but he didn't have the ability to do so!
"Other than this core device, I've also developed some simpler ones. I admit that the blueprints I gave you before were too simple, but the direction is still right. I've decided to build a frame. The core part will be relatively simple. You can slowly understand it through learning and understanding. Even if you don't understand it, it doesn't matter. You can fill the frame with things and do what you want. "Lin Dong handed a new blueprint to Chen Shi.
Chen Shi received it as if it was a treasure. He looked at it carefully and exclaimed, "Steam mecha?"
Lin Dong nodded. "It's not just steam as the driving force. There are other energy sources. I won't talk about the core part. I'll be in charge of it. I've already decided to use a holographic virtual brainwave helmet for the sensing and control. These two aspects can also be ignored. Your team only needs to be in charge of the transmission, the frame, the armor, the weapons, the plug-in, and the life support system. For the energy transmission, you'll be in charge of the steam and electromagnetism. I won't ask about electromagnetism, but for the steam transmission, I've already made a preliminary design. You can look at the blueprints. It'll be best if you can optimize and improve it. If not, you can just follow the settings on it. "
"It's impossible to use steam to transmit a heavy mecha. A mecha with a metal body is too heavy!" Chen Shi couldn't help but raise another doubt.
"I've already made the experimental machine. If there's anything you don't understand, you can go and see the real thing. I'm very busy. You can study it first. If there's anything you don't understand, you can look at the blueprints. It's best if you can make a clone according to the blueprints in a short period of time. I'll wait for your good news. "Lin Dong looked at the time and felt that it was time to leave after showing off.
"Experimental machine?" Chen Shi was completely speechless. Mechas weren't cabbages. How could they be made just like that? It had only been a few days!
After Zhang Qian and a few young people saw off Lin Dong.
They flew towards the huge object in the middle of the field.
The cover was pulled up.
A tall mecha with a metallic luster stood in front of them coldly …
Chen Shi held the blueprints and bit the tip of his tongue. He only realized that this dream-like scene was real when he felt the sharp pain and the salty taste quickly spread in his mouth.
Heavens!
What kind of a freak had he encountered!
He could make a mobile mecha with wood. What was even crazier was that he could use steam as the driving force to transmit a mecha that weighed dozens of tons. The most terrible thing was that he actually succeeded!
It seemed that the people who called him a mad scientist weren't wrong at all!
"With my level, I can only see the back? This back is really stressful! However, I won't admit defeat. I can't develop it, but at least I have to understand it! I can't understand the deepest parts. This is the simplest steam mecha. I will definitely crack it 100%. I want to know every part of it like the back of my hand. I swear, I will never disgrace my profession! "Chen Shi looked at Lin Dong's distant figure and quietly clenched his fists.
