Chapter 766 Talk to me?please queue……

"how much is it?"

Kuretta asked in disbelief with his ears out, he thought there was something wrong with his ears.

Wu Qian spread his hands and said with a smile, "3000 million, uh... US dollars."

Kuretta was obviously stunned after hearing the price, and then quickly let go of the palm holding Elizabeth's arm, as if afraid of accidentally breaking the bionic man.

He thought that the price would not be cheap, and it might cost 80 US dollars, but he didn't expect the cost to be as high as 3000 million US dollars. This is the cost price, which is almost as high as the cost of half a set of S400 anti-missile system...

"It's too expensive...God, let's urge Orr Hanvin to continue to train the soldiers of the Patriotic Army. 3000 million US dollars is enough to train at least five excellent fighter pilots."

Kuretta felt that it was more cost-effective to train real people. He looked at Elizabeth with a regretful look. The advantages of bionic people are obvious. Some related experiments have been done in their country. It turns out that in some specific cases, robots More reliable than real people.

Because the simulated human has no emotion, there is no pain.

However, the high price made Kuretta daunting, and no one could afford to build it, and he was reluctant to use it by himself...

"Haha, Kureta, the cost of 3000 million US dollars is indeed not low, but this is only the current situation. I have bought [-] artificial intelligence-related companies and laboratories. I believe it will not take long before the cost will be effective. To reduce, we must look at it from the perspective of development.”

Wu Qian could feel the desire of Kureta, and he also had related ideas. In his view, war is a confrontation of science and technology, and avoidance is impossible. If fewer people are sacrificed in the war, It is also good.

But in the end, due to cost and some technical reasons, he suppressed his thoughts.

"If the cost can be reduced to less than 500 million US dollars, Wu, we can really consider forming a bionic human army. I believe that whether it is obedience, coordination or actual combat ability, it will surpass real soldiers. God, I seem to see Here comes the picture of future war."

There are some words that Kuretta did not say in front of too many people. Although the cost of bionics is high, as long as they are not completely destroyed on the battlefield, they can be put into use again after recycling and repairing. This is something that real soldiers cannot do.

Wu Qian heard Kuretta's words, looked at Elizabeth who was quietly standing aside, and said with a smile: "It's all possible. I hope this day won't be too long. The prosperity of the future needs advanced technology to protect it."

Xiong Yali hadn't seen Wu Qian for a while. She stood aside and listened quietly to the two chatting. Due to the language problem, she could only understand 70.00% of it at most, but the information revealed in it had already shocked her beyond measure. .

Looking at Wu Qian, she recalled the scene when the two reunited at the dinner. The young boy was long gone, and he had grown to an astonishing height.

At noon, the group had a light meal in the cafeteria of the military factory, which was basically Maoziguo's special food. After all, many people working here were from Maoziguo.

After lunch, Wu Qian and Kureta went to the area where the artificial intelligence researchers were temporarily stationed. There, Kureta met Elizabeth's other two "sisters". He learned a lot about the researchers in the Stanford laboratory information.

When Wu Qian saw that Kureta was so interested, he proposed an idea on the spot.

"It's better to integrate the research and development of weapons and artificial intelligence to a certain extent, jump out of the current model, and create a new generation of military weapons. Is it possible?"

Wu Qian's sudden hypothesis made all the researchers present and Kureta fall into deep thought.

Kuretta tried his best to fantasize, and a scene that can only be seen in science fiction movies appeared in his mind. An army formed by bionics, a mobile killer, completed tasks that ordinary people are difficult to complete. If it can be realized, the whole world Everyone will be amazed by it.

Wu Qian's proposal won the approval of the vast majority of people on the spot. Artificial intelligence should have been extended to various fields.

Application is the ultimate goal of scientific research.

According to the actual situation, Wu Qian ordered troops on the spot, sent some scientific researchers to the military factory, and set up a new scientific research team, named: Shuguang.

Since then, the "Dawn" Research Institute was officially born. Crazy former Soviet munitions researchers and artificial intelligence experts came together to try to rewrite the traditional war model.

No one would have thought that in the Horn of Africa, a small country that has just started to improve, a scientific research institution that will shock the world in the near future was born. When the tradition and the future merge, it is destined to subvert the rules.

Wu Qian lived in Solan, planted trees with Xiong Yali in Baipeila during the day, received bosses who were interested in investing in Solan and friends who had already invested, or went to the military factory to see the production line that was being built, and sat by the seaside at night. The old Maozi Kuretta drank beer and ate sausage together, carefree.

During this period, Yao Xinlu sent a message, informing Wu Qian that the preparations for the cooperation with Britain, France and Germany to build an aircraft carrier had been completed.

After all the technicians rushed to France and demonstrated the relevant technologies, the three parties immediately conducted detailed calculations, and finally decided that Wu Qian would provide 80 billion euros for the construction of the aircraft carrier while providing the three main technologies.

As Mr. Mark said at the beginning, 50 billion euros is the basic cost of materials and labor, and the other 30 billion euros are various expenses for sharing technology.

At that time, four aircraft carriers will be built in accordance with the agreement. The length of the hull deck is more than 300 meters, the width is 70 meters, and the displacement is [-] tons. device.

The three-party alliance officially became the four-party alliance, but this news has not been announced to the public except for a very small number of people.

It can be seen from the data that the aircraft carrier jointly built by the four companies is targeting the Ford-class aircraft carrier of the United States. As for the carrier-based aircraft and other armaments on the aircraft carrier, each is in charge.

Wu Qian is the one who invested the most among the Quartet. Although the technology he provided is critical, the overall proportion is too low, and he needs to use too many military technologies from other companies, so it is reasonable to pay the most.

Wu Qian was very satisfied with this result. It was a reasonable result for him to pay more money. Surprisingly, due to technical reasons, ThyssenKrupp under his name successfully won the steel supply business...

Each of the four 20-ton aircraft carriers requires about [-] tons of special steel smelted by ThyssenKrupp, and the total of the four ships is [-] tons of special steel. This order made Wu Qian recover nearly one billion US dollars.

Time passed day by day, and the general election in the United States was in full swing.

Since the Orlando debate, Kama Harrison's popularity has soared into the sky, out of control.

The approval ratings lost during the downturn came back, as did the sponsorships lost, and even other candidates within the Democratic faction dropped out of the general election in favor of Kama Harrison.

With sufficient funds and popularity, Kama Harrison was full of confidence, held high and fought high, and with the cooperation of a lot of external forces, she won votes within factions in more than ten states.

On the other hand, the former King Jordan, who had already expected his failure, hardly appeared in the media after the Orlando debate. He returned to his hometown and lived in an apartment, almost isolated from the outside world.

Due to various scandals, Jordan's approval rating fell again and again. Even hardcore supporters and companies finally abandoned him because of public opinion.

There is no permanent friendship in the world, only permanent interests. Everyone is connected by interests, and in the end they parted ways because of interests. There is nothing wrong with it.

In the face of former competitors in the democratic faction who announced their withdrawal from the general election, Jordan did not express his views. He was surprisingly quiet. He did not announce his withdrawal, nor did he continue to fight for himself, just quietly waiting for the failure arrival.

Jordan was completely defeated by his own mistakes.

Although it is not yet the last moment, the situation within the democratic faction has been determined. Everyone knows that Karma Harrison will represent the democratic faction and compete with Mr. Plan of the republican faction for the final throne.

And this battle for the throne will start in January of the following year.

After Harrison's status was stabilized, the contact between Ten of Spades and Wu Qian became more frequent than before, and they would briefly report on Karma Harrison's situation every other day.

And Kama Harrison herself will make phone calls with Wu Qian every now and then, mainly discussing energy issues. She has already laid the groundwork. Through various media publicity, the whole of the United States knows her position and measures. .

Now it is necessary to have a strong rise in international oil prices to prove Kama Harrison's ideas and measures.

However, more than ten days have passed, and international oil prices have fallen instead of rising.

With the U.S. Department of Energy’s high-profile announcement of a national increase in shale oil production, and the strong advocacy of the shale oil industry by popular candidates in the general election, the international crude oil price, which had been stable at [-] to [-], was hit hard again.

The price of international crude oil has been falling endlessly just like Jordan's approval rating, falling from [-] all the way to [-], and at the lowest point during the period, it has touched the integer level of ten dollars.

This new round of slump has made financial practitioners all over the world tremble with fear. If the international crude oil price falls to single digits, it will make crude oil energy a big joke, and at the same time, countless people will suffer heavy losses.

Regarding this phenomenon, both Wu Qian and Karma Harrison showed due calmness, and did not mess up their positions due to the drop in oil prices.

Of course Wu Qian will not panic, the lower the oil price, the higher the profit of the short order in his hand, and Karma Harrison fully trusts Wu Qian, she believes that the man who helped her create miracles will not let her lose faith to everyone.

In the first ten days of December, Wu Qian took his assistant, bodyguard and Elizabeth, and set foot on the Smiley A380. The destination of the route was New York, USA.

(The headquarters of the United Nations is not in Geneva. There is an error in the previous article. It is in New York. Geneva is just an office. Although there are conferences, most of them are in New York.)
He decided to go to the United Nations headquarters in person to attend this special meeting on Solan's vote to become a sovereign country.

When the smiling face A380 landed at Kennedy Airport, it was not surprising that it was surrounded by a group of investigators from the CIA on the tarmac.

After Hesper had that phone call with Wu Qian, she fully understood that it was no easy task to trouble Wu Qian in places other than the United States.

No matter whether Wu Qian is in Europe or Africa, it is not easy, not to mention that if Wu Qian returns to the Celestial Dynasty, she will have nothing to do.

Hespel was not willing to suffer such a big loss. Although she didn't send anyone to trouble Wu Qian, she didn't relax about Wu Qian's basic monitoring.

When Wu Qian's exclusive car took off from Ethiopia, Hespel made a deployment, which was bound to make Wu Qian pay the price for the sacrifice of his subordinates.

"Enemies should be settled rather than knotted. They are all evened out, so why bother?"

Wu Qian looked at the situation on the apron through the porthole, and muttered softly.

Looking at the black suits that appeared not far from the tarmac, Wu Qian knew without thinking that they were from the CIA. He never thought of hiding when he came to the United States this time, and he had to appear on the land of the United States in a fair manner. superior.

Wu Qian asked Cooks to open the door of the plane, and walked down the boarding ladder graciously.

"Mr. Wu, our Director Hespel wants to talk to you about Alex, please cooperate with us."

More than a dozen investigators from the Central Intelligence Agency surrounded Wu Qian who had just got off the plane, and the first person said honestly.

Cooks and the others did not give an inch and defended Wu Qian in the center. As long as there is no order from the boss, they will not retreat.

Wu Qian tilted his head, looked over the shoulder of a spade troop member to the speaker, and then looked into the distance, then smiled and said, "Sorry, Ms. Hespel wants to talk to me. Things may need to be lined up."

While Wu Qian was speaking, several jeeps dressed in camouflage colors drove from far to near the smiling face A380.

A group of American soldiers in camouflage uniforms came down from a row of jeeps. The leader of the group had two five-pointed stars inlaid on his neckline. He was obviously a two-star major general in service in the United States.

The soldiers who suddenly appeared at the airport naturally attracted the attention of the black suits, and they had a bad premonition in their hearts.

The two-star major general lined up everyone and walked in front of Wu Qian, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Wu, hello. I'm Brian, Commander of the USS Stennis Aircraft Carrier Fleet. Minister Mark is waiting for you, sir. Please come with me."

Wu Qian first shook hands with the two-star major general named Brian, then shrugged to the black suits standing aside, and said, "I have an appointment with Minister Mark, I'm afraid I don't have time to see your minister, I'm really sorry .”

The Minister Mark that Wu Qian said is the Minister of Defense of the United States. Before coming to the United States, he contacted Minister Mark. After showing Minister Mark some of the mature technologies of electromagnetic ejection, Minister Mark expressed his intention to jointly research and develop.

Of course, this is just a cover for Wu Qian, but it is still very useful as a shield, at least it can block Hesper's people.
