Chapter 275

"These are the seafood we caught near Dengtian Island. When the time comes, we will share them with the people in the company so that everyone can try something new."

Binjiang City.

Longhu Hi-Tech Park.

Xu Lei, who had just returned from the sea, pointed to the unloading aquatic product boxes and confessed to Chen Shihe who came over to greet him.

After finishing the work on Dengtian Island, Xu Lei delayed his departure for another two days.

Because there were a lot of seafood caught there, he was a bit reluctant to stay on the island, so he simply brought them back to give benefits to the company employees. After all, in a way, he was no different from going on vacation this time.

Chen Shihe will naturally take care of the things Xu Lei explained to him seriously and responsibly.

After hearing this order, he did not forget to answer it.

"Alright Mr. Xu, I will arrange these things properly."

The seafood matter was just an episode for Xu Lei. Of course, he couldn't spend too much time on it, so he went to the office and asked Chen Shihe about the company's situation during this time.

"How is the company doing these days when I'm away?"

"After the end of the cable project, the production capacity of the company's products has basically returned to the previous level. The supply of smart medical cabins and nano-medical robots is still in short supply, and the market scope has covered large and small overseas countries."

"Vice-president Lu and Vice-president Jia are in charge of all business operations very smoothly." Chen Shihe obviously made preparations long ago, and answered questions very smoothly.

Xu Lei knew that when the company was making space elevator cables, in order to complete it within the expected time, it can be said that it concentrated most of the company's resources, which led to a significant drop in the production efficiency of the company's other products.

Now that the super project of the space elevator has been successfully completed, the problem of production capacity has naturally been effectively restored.

In addition, Xu Lei trusts Lu Hongbo, Jia Zhongjie, Zhang Xia and the others in their abilities.

What's more, the current future technology is already a behemoth, which is equivalent to a bullet train moving at high speed on the railway tracks. There are already mature operating procedures among various departments, so let alone he is not in the company for more than half a month, even if it takes a little longer , there will be no problems within the company.

He still has this confidence.

The reason why I asked Chen Shihe specifically was more to find topics to ease the atmosphere.

Soon after returning to his office again, Xu Lei also had a strange feeling. He wondered if he was too tense during his stay on Dengtian Island, so that he felt extremely relieved and satisfied at this moment.

After all, whether it is the splicing and running test of the main body of the space elevator, or the subsequent manned moon landing and the construction of the Guanghan Palace lunar base, they are all very important strategic projects. Since he is appointed as the person in charge, he must be given [-] points. Spirit.

In addition, I stayed up all night for a few nights, so it is normal to be more tired than staying in the company.

Fortunately, he still had the foresight to leave all the follow-up matters to Wu Chuping and run back in time, otherwise he might even have gray hair in a few months.

"By the way, Mr. Xu, are you going to hold a company meeting?" Chen Shihe, who came over with a cup of tea, brought Xu Lei back from his immersion to reality: "I'm going to contact other people in the company."

Under normal circumstances, when the boss of the company returns after going out for a period of time, he will basically hold a company meeting to let the subordinates report on the company's recent decisions, so Chen Shihe took the initiative to bring it up after thinking of this.

But in fact, with Xingtong, Xu Lei can basically know the company's affairs immediately, and there is no need to hold a report meeting.

What's more, for Xu Lei now, there is nothing more important than waiting for the exhibits to be unlocked.

After the live broadcast of the moon landing, his total influence has reached more than 490 million, and it is already close to unlocking new products in the Science and Technology Museum.

It just so happened that he stayed on Dengtian Island for two more days, and he should have almost reached the critical point by now.

However, when Xu Lei was about to control his consciousness and enter the lobby of the Science and Technology Museum to check the specific changes in influence, he noticed that Chen Shihe's expression looked a little weird at this time, as if there was something in his heart that he wanted to say but didn't dare to say.

Thinking of Chen Shihe's character, he shouldn't be so twitchy.So Xu Lei simply delayed entering the Science and Technology Museum for the time being, and then asked Chen Shihe directly.

"Let's talk about anything else. Is there any need for us to be so polite?"

Chen Shihe obviously didn't expect Xu Lei to notice the change in her facial expression, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he looked a little embarrassed when he came back to his senses: "Actually, it's just a small matter, but it's related to Xingtong , I originally planned to wait for Mr. Xu to rest before reporting."

For Chen Shihe, she basically treats Xu Lei as her own family.

Thinking that Xu Lei had just completed two major strategic projects on Dengtian Island, he should rest and recharge his batteries when he came back, so he didn't directly explain this matter.

But when Xu Lei heard these words, he was quite curious: "Is it related to Xingtong?"

"Tell me."

After all, Xingtong is just the brain of the company. Even with a mechanical body, it still does not belong to the category of human beings.

Besides, Xingtong had been staying with him on Dengtian Island during this time, so Xu Lei couldn't imagine what could happen to her.

But since it was brought up by Chen Shihe, it means that this matter has indeed caused a certain impact, otherwise the people in the company should have properly resolved it long ago.

Seeing that this incident successfully aroused Xu Lei's curiosity, Chen Shihe no longer deliberately concealed it.

It's just that she didn't report directly to Xu Lei, but took out a holographic intelligent quantum terminal and handed it to Xu Lei.

As the holographic screen appeared in the field of vision, Xu Lei suddenly noticed that it was an article written by Zhihu. This was a normal thing, but because the account that published this article was under the responsibility of Xingtong, its nature changed. Something has changed.

After browsing carefully, Xu Lei only felt that his head was full of black lines and his heart was speechless.

It turned out that when he brought Xingtong Gu Sanlin Chengfei and the others to Dengtian Island that day, they accidentally entered the screen of the live broadcast room, which made Xingtong's appearance successfully arouse the audience's curiosity.

I don't quite understand why there are real people and virtual images of future technology that look exactly the same.

A few days ago, due to the splicing operation test of the space elevator and the live broadcast of the moon landing, everyone's focus was on these two things, so Xingtong faded out of sight.

But there are always people with deeper memories.

So after the live broadcast of the moon landing ended, many people paid attention to Xingtong's identity again, and wanted to investigate the real situation clearly.

At this time, someone thought of the Zhihu account managed by Xingtong himself.

I still remember that when Xingtong was first born, in order to obtain various types of information to enable himself to learn and grow, he registered many website accounts and penguin groups by himself.

In addition, this account often releases some insider information about future technology that the outside world does not know, so it is gradually regarded as an insider by everyone, and anyone who wants to know something can come here for advice.

But since Xingtong has grown to an unimaginable height, there is no need to use this method to obtain information, which makes the account not updated for a long time.

I don't know if it's because everyone's question is related to her this time, so Xingtong specially wrote an article, introducing her mechanical body in detail with a flaunting nature.

Originally, everyone was guessing who the beauty next to Mr. Xu was, and why she had the same appearance as the virtual future technology.

After suddenly knowing that the real identity of the other party was a robot, the pot exploded in an instant, and the whole person was full of enthusiasm. They left messages under the official account of Future Technology, begging Future Technology to mass-produce this robot.

The main thing is that no one thought that Future Technology had secretly achieved this level in the field of simulated robots, and they were no different from real people in appearance.

Facing such a beautiful and safe beauty robot, who would not want to have it.

"It's actually a simulated robot, damn it!"

"This has almost reached the point where the real ones are fake. When will Future Technology be researching this technology?"

"I said how could someone look exactly like the avatar. It turned out to be a body made of machinery, but there is one thing to say - this body is really delicious."

"Where can I buy it?"

"I really want to buy one to take home. I heard that it has a strong fighting power and should be able to protect me well."

"Do you want to be protected? I'm too embarrassed to tell you."

"Thousands of people wrote in blood, begging Xu Tsong to produce it."

"Although there is a high probability that I should not be able to afford it, it does not prevent me from supporting mass production."

……

After Xu Lei roughly read the article, he glanced at the comments from netizens, not knowing what to say for a while.

However, the mass production requested by netizens can be determined to be impossible.

After all, the material of Xingtong's body area is quite special. The alloy material used as the bone is not bad. The key is the special and extremely malleable material of the muscle skin tissue. Not only is it extremely difficult to synthesize, but the failure rate is also very high.

Therefore, the cost of Xingtong's body is as high as tens of millions.

There is really no need for mass production.

It's just that netizens are discussing this matter right now, and no matter what kind of decision is made, a statement must be released to the outside world.

But before that, you need to ask Xingtong first.

Since Xingtong's simulated mechanical body is not in the office for the time being, when Xu Lei wakes it up, a three-dimensional virtual projection of Xingtong appears in front of the desk.

"boss."

"I know you sent out that article about the company's artificial robot?" Xu Lei asked about it directly without beating around the bush.

"Yes boss."

"I am promoting the power of the company's technology to them, and you have not prohibited me from doing this."

Xingtong didn't think that he made a mistake in this matter, instead he explained what he did with an expression seeking praise.

Hearing these words, Xu Lei was also choked up. Thinking about it carefully, he really didn't prohibit Xingtong from exposing the simulated robot to the outside world, not to mention that it didn't have much impact.

Just as he was thinking about these things, Chen Shihe who was next to him suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Xu, since the matter has become like this, why not use an official statement to answer it."

"Just do as you say, but the cost of the simulated robot must be clearly marked."

After figuring out the cause and effect of the matter, Xu Lei didn't want to waste too much time on it, so he agreed directly after hearing Chen Shihe's proposal.

But just when Xu Lei was about to turn off the projection of Xingtong and continue to do his business, a familiar voice sounded in the office.

"Boss, Mr. Qin requests to talk to you."

"Mr. Qin looking for me?"

Hearing that Mr. Qin wanted to talk to him suddenly, Xu Lei sat up straight subconsciously. Although he didn't know what the other party wanted to find him at this time, he still had to answer the call.

"agree."

After choosing to connect, in the next second, the virtual projection of the original star pupil will directly become Elder Qin.

At this time, Chen Shihe who was beside him silently turned and left.

Obviously he didn't want to disturb the conversation between Xu Lei and Mr. Qin.

"Mr. Qin contacted me suddenly at this time. Is there something that needs my help?" Xu Lei asked without waiting for Mr. Qin to speak first, with a little curiosity in his eyes.

The first time I saw Mr. Qin was when the Longfor Light Quantum Computer first appeared. For this, he also won the highest technology award and went to the Imperial Capital to attend the award ceremony. Therefore, he still respects this special old man Xu Lei.

The main reason is that during this period of time, he and Mr. Qin have rarely spoken on the phone, and he has never met him offline.

Now that Mr. Qin took the initiative to contact, it must be that there are more important matters that need to be dealt with urgently.

If it is within the acceptable range of future technology, Xu Lei doesn't mind selling favors to help the other party solve the problem, so he took the initiative to ask.

Hearing this, Mr. Qin didn't hold back, but saw his virtual figure's lips slightly parted, and immediately expressed his intention of coming.

"Just today we received a call from General Tripp's office. The other party asked to work with us on the space elevator project research on the grounds of the previously signed cooperation and mutual assistance agreement."

According to Tripp's previous plan, he wanted to use the base on the moon to gain chips for himself.

Then negotiate with Yan Fang about the space elevator.

As a result, the temporary base suddenly malfunctioned on the moon, causing the oxygen supply system to fail.

In this case, they had to give up the mission and let the astronauts return to the lunar module in advance, which was equivalent to giving up the so-called chips.

Knowing that he could no longer compete with Yanfang in the aerospace field, and to ensure that he would not be left behind too much, he could only actively choose to cooperate, so despite Tripp's reluctance, he finally called the Dididu.

Xu Lei's expression didn't change much after hearing what Elder Qin said, and he was obviously not surprised by this.

After all, it's their usual practice.

First try to suppress it, and when you see that you can't beat it, you beg for nothing and threaten to cooperate.

But if one day let them master more advanced technology, they will definitely kick the partners away and continue their hegemonic behavior.

Don't expect them to change such a force that is imprinted in their bones.

The best way is to completely step on it and never give it a chance to stand up.

So from this point of view, Xu Lei doesn't really want to use his space elevator project to cooperate with overseas forces, because in a way it's similar to picking peaches.

What does normal cooperation look like?
It should be that both parties work together to participate in research and development, and finally complete the entire project together.

Now that the space elevators have been built and are in stable operation, why let others step in to share the results.

However, considering that Future Technology only owns half of the ownership, Xu Lei did not directly refuse, but tentatively learned more information: "Then I don't know what the meaning of the above is?"

"I already know what you think, kid." Qin Lao smiled, as if he had seen through Xu Lei: "Don't worry, since the space elevator is a project proposed by Future Technology, now that this super project has been successfully completed, is it still possible?" The need for a partner or the future technology has the final say.”

After hearing Mr. Qin's words, Xu Lei smiled.

And laugh very happily.

Because Mr. Qin has already made it very clear, that is, the higher-ups always support the choice of future technology.

After confirming the direction of this matter, Xu Lei naturally did not hesitate any longer, and directly expressed his attitude firmly: "The space elevator project is currently very mature, and no other outsiders are needed to intervene."

"With your words, I feel relieved." Elder Qin nodded in satisfaction.

It may be that Mr. Qin guessed Xu Lei's final choice before connecting the call, so he had no objection to the answer, and then took the initiative to end the call.

When Qin Lao's virtual projection completely disappeared from sight, Xu Lei sighed slightly.

"I'm afraid the next few days will not be peaceful!"

This time, he didn't give Tripp any face, and refused them to intervene in the space elevator project. No one could guarantee that the other party would not jump the wall in a hurry.

Take the risk of launching an attack on Tenten Island.

However, as an artificial island near the equator, Dengtian Island has considered this aspect at the beginning of its design. After all, it is very vulnerable to attacks near the high seas.

Therefore, in addition to having an aircraft carrier fleet to ensure the safety of Dengtian Island, it is also equipped with the sixth-generation ghost bird fighter jets, and the quantum relay station has already penetrated into the enemy's territory. equipment.

Even if they choose to attack the Quantum Relay Station, it may be too late in terms of time.

It's just that although Xu Lei is not worried about the safety of Dengtian Island and the space elevator, he still doesn't want the world to fall into chaos. If it really hits the top, he can't absolutely guarantee that he will be able to turn the tide.

Mainly it will kill people.

But now all he can do is take one step at a time.

After dealing with the matter at hand, Xu Lei didn't bother to think about these complicated things, so he had to check the growth of influence first.

So Xu Lei immediately controlled his consciousness and entered the hall of the Science and Technology Museum.

……

……

Let's talk about Chen Shihe's side.

After receiving Xu Lei's order, she immediately started to act.

In the end, an explanation of Xingtong’s situation was released on the official media account of Future Technology. In addition to pointing out that the company has no intention of entering the field of artificial robots for the time being, it also announced the cost of Xingtong’s body in more detail.

As soon as this announcement was issued, it quickly became the hot search list on the platform, causing many people to feel great grief.

I originally thought that the robot girlfriend in the sci-fi movie would become a reality, but it turned out that there was no way to mass-produce it.

In particular, the cost of tens of millions is even more prohibitive.

"It's a pity that such a powerful simulation robot technology is not mass-produced. Fortunately, I am still looking forward to it for the past two days."

"It's no wonder that the appearance looks like it can be faked. The cost of the material alone is so high. Even if the cost is tens of millions, few people can afford it."

"Everyone should leave."

"Actually, I think this is a good thing. If there is no mature management system for artificial robots entering the market, I am afraid it will cause social unrest."

"What a pity!"

"It's actually an official announcement from Future Technology. When I first saw Zhihu's article, I thought it was nonsense."

Faced with such a result, after the intense discussion from the bottom of their hearts, netizens stopped paying too much attention to this matter. After all, most people have a clear understanding of themselves, and they know that this level of simulated robots is not the same as themselves. Relationship, why waste your time paying too much attention.

As for what happened on the Internet, Xu Lei naturally didn't know at the moment, because he was standing in front of a booth in the hall of the Science and Technology Museum.

That's right.

With the help of the popularity of the two global live broadcasts a few days ago, he successfully brought him a lot of influence, and after returning from Dengtian Island, the discussion about the space elevator on the Internet finally made his influence reach 500 million points .

As soon as his consciousness entered the museum hall, he noticed the familiar shining booth.

Xu Lei knew that this was the performance of the exhibits before they were unlocked, so Dang even walked to the booth and prepared to manually unlock the exhibits inside.

"I don't know what can be unlocked, it's really exciting!"

At this moment, while Xu Lei was muttering to himself, he decisively stretched out his right hand to cover the information screen next to him.

Immediately, the light of the booth stopped flickering, and a complex virtual model gradually emerged. When he noticed the things on the booth, Xu Lei was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the exhibits unlocked this time were not real objects. If so, there is a high probability that it belongs to the technical category.

The exhibits that have been unlocked several times before, whether it is a smart medical cabin, a nanomedical robot, or a space elevator that has just been completed, are all very mature products.

After he transmits the technical knowledge involved in it into his mind, he only needs to reproduce it to play a role.

But if it is pure technology, how to apply it at that time needs to be carefully considered.

After all, if the same technology is used in different fields, the final results will be completely different, and even improper use may cause negative effects.

After flashing these thoughts quickly in his mind, Xu Lei began to look forward to the exhibits unlocked this time: "The technology that can enter the first-level civilization, the effect must not be disappointing, I wonder if it is related to the evolution of life forms? "

My mind has just come here, and after noticing that the template information on the information screen has been updated smoothly, I quickly turned my gaze to watch it carefully.
