It wasn't just the United States. In fact, all the embassies that received the e-invitations were shocked. What was Monster Industries trying to do?
A revolutionary individual defensive armor?
Literally speaking, this should be a bulletproof vest with more comprehensive defensive capabilities and a higher level of protection.
In modern warfare, bulletproof vests had become one of the indispensable pieces of equipment for individual combat. The dozens of countries invited by Monster Industries were all countries that had the ability to equip bulletproof vests on a large scale.
Of course, as one of the big countries, Hua Xia had the ability to equip bulletproof vests on a large scale.
Now, Hua Xia's military field training or military exercises almost didn't see the shadow of bulletproof vests. This led many people to mistakenly think that Hua Xia was still in the backward stage of decades ago and couldn't even popularize bulletproof vests.
This was a wrong view. The mass production cost of bulletproof vests was only a few hundred dollars per piece. Even if ceramic bulletproof inserts were installed, the cost would only increase by two hundred dollars. Even if it was a large-scale equipping of five million soldiers, the cost would only be a few billion.
It wasn't usually seen because it wasn't taken out.
Now, Monster Industries was going to launch a more advanced individual defensive armor …
No matter how strange and puzzled the countries were, they wouldn't miss the opportunity to participate in the press conference.
It was important to know that bulletproof vests had saved the lives of countless soldiers on many battlefields instigated by the United States. There were even examples of soldiers who could still pick up their weapons and fight back after being shot dozens of times.
If Monster Industries' individual armor was strong enough, they wouldn't mind purchasing a batch of trial equipment first.
The various countries were interested, but the consumers were complaining. Because what they wanted most was the second-generation magic crystal phone. They didn't understand the biological fiber material, and they didn't understand the liquid printer. Even if the press conference hadn't started yet, based on their own experience, they believed that these two products wouldn't be very popular.
…
One day before the Monster Industries press conference, more than two hundred global media outlets had already rushed to Zhongyun to reserve seats in advance.
In addition to the vast press conference, the press conference center also prepared 2,000 special guest seats. Among them, there were invited distributors, representatives of various countries, social celebrities, and carefully selected loyal customers of Monster Industries' products.
Ye Qing finally began to get busy. Since yesterday, many guests had arrived one after another, and he had to personally receive many of them. Even if it was just a handshake or a few words with others, it would be unbearable to meet from morning to night. This made Ye Qing feel as if he had just finished moving a truck full of bricks.
Ye Qing was busy, the employees were busy, and Dian Jing was also busy with the monsters.
Among the new products this time, the bio-fiber material was the highlight. The most direct and effective way to display the individual armor made of this material was undoubtedly to use live ammunition.
Therefore, the monsters temporarily sealed off Area C in the parking lot on the second basement floor and turned it into a very safe shooting range. Professor Liu Fangyu from the Beishan Light Infantry would lead the test team to conduct the live firing test.
Beishan Qingbing was a very important research and production group in Hua Xia. At the same time, Beishan Qingbing also had a place in the global arms trade.
Professor Liu Fangyu and Ye Qing could be considered acquaintances. Last year, they commissioned Monster Industries to produce the automatic sniper system, and he was in charge of leading the team to inspect it. This time, Monster Industries had launched individual defensive armor, so Hua Xia's military had to come and see it no matter what.
Although bulletproof materials could be freely circulated in the market, Monster Industries' products were destined to be extraordinary.
This faced an awkward problem similar to plasma batteries. When a product was too outstanding, the government would restrict the export of this product for national security reasons to prevent other countries from mastering the same product.
This was the case for all countries, especially the United States, which was the most technologically advanced country in the world. They could even ban a certain server chip from Intel from being exported to Hua Xia on a large scale to prevent Hua Xia from using this chip to build supercomputers.
This chip was called the Ultimate Computing Card. It should be known that this chip could be purchased anywhere in the world, and countless servers around the world were using it. Prohibiting Hua Xia from purchasing it on a large scale was simply more embarrassing than revealing three hundred taels of silver.
Wasn't it ridiculous?
It wasn't ridiculous at all. It was even more ridiculous 30 years ago.
At that time, Hua Xia didn't have any computer manufacturing and research ability, but the development of modern industry couldn't do without the help of large-scale computers.
Therefore, all the supercomputers imported from the United States by Hua Xia had to be housed in transparent glass houses. This was because the glass houses allowed the Americans to see what Hua Xia was doing with the computers from the outside.
Even the keys to the glass houses were guarded by the Americans. Every time they used them, they had to ask the Americans for permission before they could use them.
In this kind of ridiculousness, who could understand the unwillingness and humiliation in the hearts of the scientists of that generation back then?
Now, Hua Xia was gradually rising, and among them, Monster Industries was the most outstanding technology.
It was already at the top. This company had the ability to surpass military technology even if it was a civilian product, and it even surpassed it by a large margin.
Of course, technological progress was a great thing. It was even better to export high-tech products to foreign countries to earn foreign exchange. As long as the most advanced technology was only used in Hua Xia, it would be enough to make foreign countries stare.
Fortunately, Monster Industries revealed that the export product this time was only the lowest-level model.
If Beishan Light Soldier Group was interested, Monster Industries could provide a higher level of protection liquid biological fiber material. They could freely design the blueprints and print the product.
Great praise!
As a result, Beishan Light Soldier Group hurriedly sent a test team to help test this personal protective equipment.
…
The press conference was scheduled to be held at 9: 00 a.m. in the technology center on the third floor of the Monster Industries building.
Starting at 7: 00 a.m., the citizens of Zhongyun, who were going to work one after another, smelled the scent of a big event that was about to happen.
Because there were 50 representatives of the governments of various countries among the guests this time, the leaders of Zhongyun City were overjoyed. They specially transferred more than 1,000 police officers from the city and the subordinate counties and cities to help maintain traffic on the roads and maintain order in the Monster Industries building.
At 7: 00 a.m., all the main roads around the Monster Industries building were filled with traffic police. Every ten meters on the road, there was a colorful banner pulled from the street lamps on both sides of the road. It was printed in a mess of many languages, most of which no one could understand. In front of the cool Monster Industries building, flowers and carpets covered the entire square.
The square was surrounded by a metal isolation fence, leaving 12 security gates in the middle. At each gate stood four security guards in suits.
Everyone knew that Monster Industries was holding a press conference today. However, no one dared to imagine that this press conference would be so grand, as if a martial arts conference was about to be held.
The lineup was indeed big enough. The two mayors, Xia Yuming and Wu Shunyun, also came. As the hosts, they said a hundred things and came to receive the government representatives from all over the world.
Take a look, which countries' representatives came?
Russia, Germany, England, France, Italy, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Spain, Mexico, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium, Argentina …
The two mayors in the VIP lounge were ready to stand on the left and right of the VIP passage to welcome the representatives of the various countries who were about to enter the venue.
How big of a scene was this?
Damn, the United Nations General Assembly was just this.
The entire Western camp, except for the United States, was almost completely wiped out. The remaining countries with the top economies of the continents were basically all here, but the United States was not invited.
There were also a few countries in Asia whose economies were obviously stronger but did not have a good relationship with Hua Xia. They were also not invited.
Other than Monster Industries, which other company had the face and courage to do so?
Regardless of whether the representatives sent by the various countries were government personnel temporarily transferred from the embassy or military representatives sent from the mainland, the two mayors, Xia Yuming and Wu Shunyun, had already made up their minds to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to promote Zhongyun City in front of the representatives of various countries and the global media.
At 7: 30 in the morning, media reporters from all over the world were the first to enter the venue.
The main road in front of the square had been temporarily blocked by the traffic police, and only vehicles with permits were allowed to enter.
The sidewalks on both sides, the Blue Sky Building opposite, the Sky Eagle Building next to it, and the street opposite were crowded with more than tens of thousands of Zhongyun citizens watching the show.
Not to mention the employees of the nearby companies, even the CEOs came to join in the fun.
Why were they still working?
They hurried over to observe and learn. The successful experience of Monster Industries was real.
When the first Iveco interview car, printed with Zhongyun news, drove from east to west and entered the eyes of the onlookers, tens of thousands of people suddenly shouted and laughed, bursting into a warm welcome.
They felt very affectionate and very proud.
