Gao Meng's words were crude, but his reasoning was not crude. The background and significance of the project could be explained to the heavens, but in the end, it all came down to practicality. The Scavenger project had to be guided by technology. No matter how perfect the other ideas were, they were meaningless if they were impractical in terms of technology.
Ju Ling didn't mind his own explanation being interrupted. Instead, he took advantage of the situation to cut into the specific technical link. "According to the collected data and user feedback, the functionality of the Fortress is quite simple and crude. It's like a fixed fort. It only has two basic attributes: defense and attack. If it wants to truly display its usefulness, this fort must possess mobility, probing, and other functions. Therefore, we hope that the project team can combine the Blood Will Bracelet product and develop a few basic elements of a paper talisman plug-in in a short amount of time. Then we can coordinate and perfect it …. "
Luo Nan raised his head. "So it's just a temporary product, right?"
"Huh? No. This is a long term project. The government and the military's idea is to use the Fortress as a large functional platform. We believe that it possesses this kind of potential. "
"But there's a problem with your train of thought."
Luo Nan raised his head. His gaze swept across Gao Meng, Ju Ling, and even Tian Bang and He Yueyin's faces. He shook his head and said, "The direct cause of the crude functionality of the Fortress is the crude functionality of the Blood Will Bracelet. The design of the paper talisman plug-in is cumbersome. After all, they are only transitional products. They are temporary crutches that can't be borrowed. If we were to talk about the root cause, it would still be the lack of the participants' configuration thinking and skills. In other words, it's a fundamental problem. "
Luo Nan mercilessly criticized the product his own company had launched. He conveniently swept everyone in.
He spoke bluntly under the subtle expressions of the group of people, "If a hardware plug-in is needed to realize a function, then this system platform is trash. The Fortress can have hardware, but it can't be this kind of hardware. The Fortress itself isn't that bad. It's just the current application model that's bad. "
Zhang Yingying giggled to the side.
Luo Nan was baffled. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Honest boy, fight!" Zhang Yingying clenched her fists and waved her arms, encouraging him.
Quite a few people blinked from the sourness that assaulted their faces.
Although he was the instigator of the situation, Gao Meng revealed the true face of the most enthusiastic Fortress fan. He immediately got into the zone and asked anxiously, "What's the best way to use it?"
Luo Nan thought for a bit and said, "In an ideal state … … What I mean is, under the impetus of complete configuration thinking and skill, the fortress should be like a giant ship roaming the universe. There should be hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of crew members inside. Together, they formed a group consciousness, but there was a clear division of labor. Everyone cooperated and performed their own duties. Their posts, functions, configurations, and operations were all unified.
"The 'crew' of a bastion ship are the architects and operators of the ship. They use their thinking and technology to create the necessary configurations. These configurations must conform to the logic of the bastion platform, as well as the characteristics of the ship's own soul. Not only could it realize the effective integration of collective strength, but it could also increase the adaptability of the platform as much as possible and raise the upper limit of the platform.
"If necessary, the fortress platform on the mental plane needs to be unified with the equipment platform on the material plane. It's like the Deep Blue Walkers' Formatting Domain. That should be a variant of the abyssal region configuration. It can be effectively combined with the mechanical combat platform and the operator, truly forming a mutual interference between the mental and the material. It is a combat platform that straddles the two domains."
Luo Nanyang spoke eloquently. In the beginning, there were people in the meeting room who were whispering to each other and exchanging glances. But later on, everyone shut their mouths and stared at him. Aside from Luo Nan's speech, there was not the slightest noise in the meeting room.
Only when Luo Nan's voice fell did Gao Meng loudly applaud, "This train of thought is beautiful. It sounds like everything is right in front of your eyes. You've been thinking like this for a long time! "
It really was right in front of their eyes … … This was because what Luo Nan had described truly existed in the alien civilization related to the external neuron.
In the initial interface of the virtual brain system, there were two 'satellites' orbiting around the virtual brain. One of them was an exoskeleton armor, which represented the development system of an individual. The other was a spacecraft in outer space, which represented the application of collective power.
Luo Nan had more or less straightened out the logic within through this period of analysis and study. His train of thought naturally became clearer and more intuitive.
"It's truly marvelous. It even makes people believe that Mr. Luo has seen a scene that truly exists … … This is the foresight of wisdom."
Tian Bang lightly clapped his hands from the far end of the long table. His words sounded similar to Gao Meng's at first glance, but there was a bit of a different flavor in the transition of the syllables. He Yueyin gave him an ice-cold glance because of this.
Tian Bang was thick-skinned. He didn't even blink. But then he changed the topic to another aspect, "We are more at ease now that we understand Mr. Luo's train of thought. Letting Mr. Luo become the chief technical officer of the Scavenger project is truly the most appropriate choice. "
Zhang Yingying asked curiously, "Chief technical officer?"
"Yes. According to the usual practice of civil-military cooperation projects, the military is willing to provide a certain amount of remuneration and technical shares to employ Mr. Luo as the chief technical officer of the project. If Mr. Luo is willing, we can also provide an official title and engage in a longer and more intimate cooperation. "
"Oh." Luo Nan responded casually. Tian Bang had said similar words yesterday during the remote vote. Now he repeated it again. It was like taking off one's pants to fart. It was an unnecessary move.
Though the Blood-Intent Ring Fortress was not Luo Nan's original invention, he was probably the only person on Earth right now who truly understood the marvels within, excluding a certain person whose whereabouts were unknown. There was no need to talk about this in Xia City. Unless President Ouyang and Her Majesty Empress Wu relied on their seniority to interfere, no one could occupy this position.
Since he had agreed, he had to do things. Luo Nan had a basic train of thought. He was operating on the flexible e-ink screen when he felt the gazes of all the participants. The natural noise had all disappeared.
Zhang Yingying's elbow, resting on the table, came over. "You want to enter the system?"
Only now did Luo Nan discover that everyone's focus was different. He was only thinking about the first half, but everyone else was thinking about the second half … …
"The second half. Oh, that's what I mean."
Luo Nan's uncle, Mo Haihang, was a high level employee of the SCA. Luo Nan had some concept of the situation of the public sector. Tian Bang was talking about titles and not positions. This meant that if Luo Nan nodded, he could enter the military and government public sector and become a public employee. He could enjoy the most stable social benefits, but of course, he would be restrained by the entire public sector.
He was not interested in this at all.
"Let's talk about titles and whatnot later. It's too troublesome. I don't want people to manage me. "
The breathing noises in the conference room returned to normal after hearing Luo Nan say this. The group of people all laughed. It had to be said that Luo Nan's current way of thinking was quite in line with his age.
They were all laughing, but there were subtle differences between members of the military, members of the Society, and even different people.
Luo Nan didn't pay attention to these things. It was just as he said before. The fortress was still far from complete. He needed to expend a considerable amount of energy to supplement and amend it. Defense, attack, movement, and detection. There were four basic elements in total. Not only did he need to perfect them one by one, he needed to form a complete system.
Even if he could find mature and complete examples in the user manual and the virtual brain system, the original design would not be suitable due to the difference in the user's basic abilities. It wasn't something that could be done in a day or two, or even a month or two.
Luo Nan operated on the flexible e-ink screen. The first thing he opened was the calendar and the corresponding work schedule.
Zhang Yingying moved closer to take a look. She saw that the schedule was at least half a year later. She couldn't help clicking her tongue twice.
Luo Nan ignored her this time. He considered how he should insert the research and improvement work of the Blood-Intent Ring fortress into the process of learning the external neuron configuration theory, researching his mother's thesis, and collecting and analyzing the cloud configuration fragments.
Well, from this angle, the transformation of the fortress, the construction of the Bloodsoul Temple thousands of kilometers away, and even the specific actions of killing Gong Qi in the cloud world were all considered exercises in the process of learning and research. And when he considered the difficulty, the transformation of the fortress seemed to be relatively simple. It was just right for a beginner like him.
Luo Nan's last bit of apprehension was dispelled after he incorporated the mission into his own logical system. He immediately began to modify the schedule. He pondered about it for a while and said:
"I need to equip a team."
Tian Bang, He Yueyin, and the others were discussing the specific issues of cooperation right now. However, the information that Luo Nan inserted was still the first priority. Tian Bang responded in the first instance:
"Of course."
Luo Nan wasn't going to be polite with him: "Professionals can supplement depending on the needs. This includes but is not limited to mental side charms, perception, realization, mathematical modeling, mechanical design and manufacturing, material science … … Oh, this includes laboratory production lines."
Tian Bang chuckled: "You're the CTO. Research and development revolves around you. As long as the circuits don't go out of line, the demand doesn't exceed, and the output is uninterrupted, you can have whatever you want. "
Zhang Yingying curled her lips: "Nonsense."
Luo Nan was quite content with this before he was certain of a problem. He didn't say anything else.
And at this time, someone from the Society raised a question. It was directed at Tian Bang: "I have a question. If the reconstruction of the fortress is completed, its performance will be as expected. Then is there a clear direction for the goal? Is it to be pulled into the wilderness to fight against the Mutants and Darksider races? Or is there some other plan? I feel that the government and the military don't have a clear arrangement in this regard. "
The person who spoke could be considered an acquaintance of Luo Nan's. It was another B-rank mental side psychic, Mr. Bai. His daughter was the mysterious and treacherous Bai Xinyan, who was hard to distinguish between friend and foe.
Tian Bang maintained his smile in response to Mr. Bai's inquiry: "Even though I have confidence in Mr. Luo's talent and strength, it isn't a safe choice to go face to face with a monster like the Human-Faced Arachnid when you've just set foot in this brand new domain. I am willing to suggest that we first apply this epoch-making platform to Xia City's own defense and public security. First, we'll eliminate a few small problems and troubles. We'll continue to accumulate experience and plan for the future. "
Mr. Bai continued to question: "What are small problems and troubles? As long as the abyssal region is involved, it seems that there is no room for small fish and shrimps to interfere. "
"I don't know if we can catch small fish and shrimps in the abyssal region. However, there are some people whose ambitions and desires have climbed too high before their abilities are sufficient. There are many such people. Xia City is no exception. "
Tian Bang gave Ju Ling a meaningful glance. Ju Ling understood and switched to the screen of the presentation. Soon, a circular interface that was pieced together from hundreds and thousands of garbled symbols appeared.
"This is an invitation to some absurd event. Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve. It should be about time. Is there anyone here who has received the latest information? "
A buzzing vibration sounded just as Luo Nan's voice fell. Though it was small and weak, it could not hide from the eyes and ears of the group of ability users in the conference room.
Luo Nan was carrying out the initial details of the plan when he felt his wrist vibrate. His gaze shifted and he saw the virtual screen of his wristband appear. The garbled dial on it was extremely eye-catching. It was no different from what was displayed on the screen of the presentation.
