Chapter 210 Fengqi Prototype Scares Gamers

the next day.

After a night of deliberation, the news that the Ironhide Company restored the Zeppelin airship has spread all over the world.

But the most exciting thing is not Germany, the hometown of the founder of the airship, but England, who was bombarded by Zeppelin airships during World War I.

"Son, look, I'm not lying, there really are such giants in the world!"

"Yes, Grandpa, I believe it."

When the reporter asked about the queen, the latter replied: "Sometimes, when you look back casually, you will find that the so-called history is not far away from us. '

'Just like the Hindenburg, the largest airship in human history, its destruction time is only 64 years from now. '

'And back then, I was even more fortunate to witness the attack of the Zeppelin swarm. '

'It's hard for you to imagine how it feels to have dozens of football fields, or even a behemoth twice the size of a football field, flying over the sky and covering the sky. '

'At that moment, I thought it was the end of the world. '

When the Queen's words flew to all over the world through newspapers, the news media hoping to attract attention also dug up records related to the Zeppelin and the Hindenburg from museums, archives, memorials, etc.

For a while, why the airship withdrew from the stage of history and became the hottest topic at present.

Even some old engineers who participated in the airship project also spoke out.

"Back then, we gave up the airship because North America banned the export of helium."

"Yes, especially North American Airlines suppressed the airship project for the sake of aircraft revenue."

Harden: "What an inexpensive spacecraft, it can definitely help us speed up our development. This shows that North America is anti-human!"

The world is collectively silent.

the other side.

North America, Boston.

General Electric headquarters.

On the screen of the ultra-thin TV, the scene of Director Xu being interviewed by reporters was broadcast.

"First of all, we need to improve its shape. It can't be the original 'cigar', but a cross-section similar to an airplane wing... By the way, have you seen a big shark? A fin!"

"The second is to improve the tail controller, which is something like a propeller..."

The female translator stood by the TV, explaining vividly.

The chairman of General Electric, while listening, played with the miniature airship on the table.

for a long time.

He turned his seat and looked back at the engineers gathered in the office.

Originally, the shareholders were very excited when they heard that Xu Fei had joined the Port of Hamburg Shipyard.

Because of the unsuccessful search for two warships and a submarine, and what happened when they were lost, it is now completely certain within General Electric that Xu Fei is the mastermind who stole three big pieces and a lot of shipbuilding equipment.

It's just that there is no trace of what the other party did, and the family can't produce conclusive evidence.

When the other party joins the shipyard, it is very likely that they will use the electrical shipbuilding technology and equipment.

Unexpectedly, Foreman stepped in and poached Xu Fei to build the airship.

Moreover, the manufactured airship is very similar to the Thunderbird series that it is developing.

Of course, rigid airships were all born out of Zeppelin airships. After Germany was defeated and experts came to North America, the Thunderbird came into being.

It's a pity that the attention was not paid enough in the early stage, and it was only in recent years that it was taken out to continue research.

"Can you estimate how much money is needed to build a Zeppelin airship based on his idea?"

The engineers looked at each other, listed the projects they were in charge of, and then handed them over to the budget staff, who then made statistics.

"Chairman, without loading the armament system, the initial budget is 20 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to a B2."

"I mean, at Eastern cost!"

"If the research and development costs are not evenly distributed, ignoring the value of new materials, at most 20 billion red notes, equivalent to a Boeing 747."

"Can we make them like this?"

"Currently it can't be done, because the airship relies on air buoyancy. In theory, the higher the flight, the lower the air density, and the buoyancy produced will also decrease."

The person in charge of the engineer thought for a while, "Perhaps, I understand Xu Fei's meaning. If the air is described as a fish tank, we are actually fish living in water. The density of water is equal to that of air. How do fish move in water?" , Zeppelin airship moves in the air, the reason sounds simple, but to make it, it needs a propulsion device, just like a fish waving its fins, when it reaches a certain height, the fish will float, then, the Zeppelin airship reaches a certain height , will also be suspended, then it has broken through the limit of air density, of course, there is no theory of buoyancy in the universe, what we overcome is only 'gravity'."

The chairman of General Electric thought for a while, "Then, the rigid airship is so big and uses a propulsion device, how can it overcome the torsion of the skeleton?"

"This is the problem we are currently facing. Unless there is an ultra-hard and ultra-light skeleton, it cannot be solved. It can only be said that everyone has the technology, and it mainly depends on who can take the lead in creating new materials."

After the engineer in charge finished speaking, he took the opportunity to ask for funds, "If you want to develop a brand new material, you can't do it without hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars. Especially ultra-light and super-hard aviation materials can also be used in aircraft. , helicopters, etc.”

"There will be."

The chairman of Tongden Electric nodded and signaled to the personnel in charge of armaments, "Arrange a group of people to go to the Hamburg Port Shipyard and the headquarters of the Iron Sheet Company, and get their carbon fiber materials and new nylon production technology at any cost. If possible, Then look for a supercapacitor."

"Good chairman."

Although General Electric is affiliated to Morgan, Morgan is mainly engaged in finance and rarely intervenes in this business.

Usually, if General Electric is short of money, it can turn to Morgan Investment Bank. If General Electric handles affairs, it must rely on its own ability.

And General Electric does...

Except for Raymond, they have always been very stable.

…………

Dongshan.

August 8th is a special day.

On this day, nearly [-] new trainees, dressed in various uniforms, gathered at the square in front of Daze Power Gate to hold a flag-raising ceremony.

The 18.8-meter mechanical flagpole with blower design, the handsome flag bearer in summer camouflage and the security guards, and the seven flags waving in the wind mean that the new students have officially entered the school, and it also means that the TEP has completed the initial division.

From east to west, in order:

Daze Group, TEP Group, Tin Pi General, Huaxia Hongqi, Hongqi Automobile, Tin Pi Company, Leifei Technology Hound Breeding Base.

And Daze Industrial Park started to expand again.

To the west, it extends to the edge of the highway.

To the east, arrive at the former site of Xujia Village.

To the north, it spans many wind power towers and connects to thermal power plants.

Add dormitory buildings, large dining halls, street shops, staff activity centers...

Set up factory buses, factory public bicycles, factory mobile toilets...

Introduce supermarkets, convenience stores, stationery stores, barber shops, flower markets...

"This is Workshop No. 1, which is mainly responsible for smelting."

"This is Workshop No. 13, mainly responsible for forging."

"This is workshop No. 32, which is mainly responsible for assembling 6V300C diesel engines."

"This is workshop No. 45, which is mainly responsible for assembling the TEP car pickup series..."

"This is workshop No. 79, which is mainly responsible for assembling the Cruze hatchback..."

"This is Workshop No. 95..."

"This is the computer reading room, with a collection of 80 volumes, all of which are technical, of which 2 volumes are jointly compiled by TEP engineers and professors at all levels, covering modern and future mechanical engineering, mechanical power, and new material research and development..."

"This is the employee activity center in the east area, with two football fields and 45 basketball courts... There are also activity centers in the west area and the north area. The Daze Industrial Research Office is planning to hold the first National Youth Cup football match."

The tour guide played by the old staff sent away batch after batch of parents and ushered in batch after batch of leaders who visited and studied.

Subsequently.

Principal Liu He announced that TEP Vocational and Technical College will be independent of TEP and reorganized into Daze Education Group, with the same school name, TEP Group holds 20%, Tiepi Company holds 20%, Daze Group holds 20%, and Hongqi Automobile holds 20% of the shares, and Leifei Technology holds 20% of the shares.

At the same time, it signed an employment guarantee agreement with all trainees, and launched a trial program of tenure tenure.

He also pointed out that since the school is a non-profit technical training institution, the participating companies need to pay 5 million red notes to support the construction of the new campus, start teaching work, introduce teaching materials and teaching plans, etc.

In this regard, the central enterprise management committee is not happy.

It's not that the money is bad, but that the school has monopolized the jobs. In the future, Hongqi Automobile will no longer recruit external workers, and will adopt a new promotion mechanism, and the management will not be affected by the outside world.

"Director Xu, can Hongqi Motor not take a share?"

"This is a good thing. Taking 20% ​​of the shares for nothing, and getting a steady stream of high-level technicians, it can almost be said that whether or not to participate in the shares determines how far Hongqi Automobile will go... Besides, is this something I can decide? You You should find Strauss, or Foreman, or Raymond, or Xu Dayou, I'm just a wage earner."

"..."

"However, the ugly words are up front. I can't guarantee that this group of people will kick Hongqi out of the Daze Industrial Park when Hongqi Motors withdraws its shares. TEP and Ironhide seem to be at odds, but they still want to cooperate. Now you suddenly want to go solo, TEP does not provide the transmission system, Daze does not provide chassis tires, and Ironhide does not help design electrical circuits and nano-spraying, our red flag , can you still drive it?"

"Director Xu, excuse me."

"Oh, no one can deny my Xiao Xu's decision."

Xu Fei hung up the phone, and immediately received a message from the Boston Police Department and David, who was transferred to the Massachusetts State Police Department as the sheriff.

20 defense personnel from General Electric are about to go to the port of Hamburg, Germany.

"Is this planning to attack my base camp?"

Although the headquarters of the Port of Hamburg Shipyard has been moved to Berlin, this is for the convenience of Forman's office, and the site of the shipyard will not change.

Xu Fei thought about it, and sent a message to the contact person of the SEALs, asking him to find a few of his own people from the North American base in Germany, go to the Port of Hamburg Shipyard to eat, drink, have fun, grab the other party by the way, and ask General Electric aircraft factory deployment.

In March, the North American Garrison at Battalion Humphreys in the South implemented a garrison rotation. At least 3 veterans of the "Invincible Battalion" were assigned to Germany, and there was no shortage of people there.

And TEP's headquarters used to be in Germany, and there is no shortage of money there.

Someone, rich, and connected...

Waiting for time to go to Germany, the base there is basically another 'Humphreys'.

After Xu Fei made the arrangement, he walked out of the 'Xiao Xu's house', got stuck, and went to the Hongqi car from Shangben.

In the second half of the millennium, under the impetus of Director Xu, China's economy began to speed up.

The steel industry is revived, the heavy industry is on the rise, mechanical processing has started, and foreign trade exports have broken records one after another.

A series of things promote the development of light industry, and agricultural and sideline products also follow the supply and marketing cooperatives on the express train.

Income has increased, new things have emerged one after another, and consumption levels have skyrocketed.

Agricultural machinery, toys, electrical appliances, daily necessities, mechanical tools...

Although farmers have little savings, it is impossible to buy all of them, but it is still possible to add an agricultural tricycle, or buy an electrical appliance to show off, or give children more pocket money.

Among them, affected by the 'supply and marketing business', surfing the Internet has become the most fashionable thing for farmers.

For example, when the farming is slack, I plan to buy a few lambs with good meat quality, raise them for the first half of the year, and slaughter them for myself at the end of the year, or give them to my in-laws as a 'gift'.

But the "bull market and sheep market" in Wong Nai Kong has been closed, what should I do?
Go to the computer room of the supply and marketing cooperative, spend two yuan, invite a young man to go online, and let the other party spend half an hour helping me choose the lamb with the best reviews on the "supply and marketing network", and then go to the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative to check out.

In less than three days, the logistics team will drop by the seller and deliver the lamb to the supply and marketing cooperative.

After going on like this for a long time, I invite people to go online more times, and I see more, and I naturally learn how to operate it. Next time, I will open a machine by myself, and I can go home to show off after buying things.

After coming and going, the old and young men in the village, whoever wants to buy things, start looking for me.

Again and again, the old and young men in the village also learned to surf the Internet.

then……

"Dog dog, buddha rice!"

"C order one!"

"Watch out for grenades!"

Xu Fei passed by the Daze Supply and Marketing Cooperative, heard the tenor voices coming from inside, turned his head subconsciously, and instantly saw many young and old men who were shirtless, squatting on chairs, and gnashing their teeth.

But it is certain that no one dares to gamble now.

Let's just say it's a good thing.

However, when he came to the 'Tofu Square' on the left, Xu Fei was a little dazed.

The owner of the shop is an honest farmer. He was deaf and dumb since he was a child and never went to school. Later, he met a Taoist priest who taught him to grind tofu, so he started this business.

When Xu Fei was in elementary school, he often saw him walking around the streets at six or seven o'clock, pushing a wheelbarrow. Since he couldn't speak and didn't have a small speaker at that time, this guy was often "goose goose goose".

From ten miles to eight villages, anyone who hears this voice knows that the tofu seller is coming.

At the beginning, the tofu from Xiaoya Fan Factory was also provided by the other party.

Later, the electric fan factory went bankrupt, and someone spread rumors that the brine poured out of the toilet was used to make tofu, which resulted in no one caring about his business. Even after the investigation in the village, we found out about "gypsum tofu" and clarified it.

Five years ago in the winter, a deaf-mute man froze below his knees in order to save a child who fell into an ice hole. Now it is difficult for him to walk and he can only sit in a wheelchair.

But Liu Sixi helped him resume his old business, made the tofu shop bigger and stronger, and even launched baked tofu, which was sold to North America, not because of the above.

But...

The dumb man is the second uncle and grandfather of Director Xu.

My grandfather's family lives in a big city, and because of my mother's business, I never get in touch with this place. Only my cousin's family, and this second uncle who was cast aside and left to live in his hometown in the countryside, often visit him.

Therefore, Xu Fei doesn't like tofu.

"Goose!"

The dumb man sitting in the wheelchair saw the figure at the door, happily manipulated the motor controller, ran out quickly, and gestured in jerky sign language: "Have you eaten yet?"

"No, I plan to go to the cafeteria to get two buns."

"I'll make tofu nao for you."

"Don't eat!"

Xu Fei turned his head and left.

As he grew older, he discovered a serious problem.

He is becoming more and more like Lao Xu.

Many emotions cannot be expressed in words, even if they care about each other, they treat each other with a cold face.

"It really is the material to be an official!"

Xu Fei came to the big cafeteria, took five steamed buns for the vicious dog, and checked the quality of the food.

Sometimes, unannounced visits and inspections cannot be carried out before the meal, but after the meal.

For example, there are too many leftovers in certain meals, which means that they are not tasty.

For example, some leftover soup tastes tasteless, which means cutting corners.

For example, some dishes and chopsticks left in the cabinet are dirty and messy, indicating that some employees did not abide by the rules of washing their own dishes, and other employees did not supervise.

And once Director Xu didn't eat, it means that all the above things happened.

After all, there is no way to eat it.

"Send a notice to the whole factory that no one is allowed to eat at noon today, and the employees in the big cafeteria face the wall collectively, and another day's wages will be deducted."

"If the rectification fails, all personnel will be changed."

Xu Fei, watched by the cafeteria staff who dared not breathe, went to the office first, and then walked to the monitoring room to hear if anyone scolded him secretly.

Unfortunately, after listening for more than two hours, no one dared to hum.

After that, come to the experimental area.

After a month, the prototype of the 'Electromechanical Lu Bu' was finally produced.

Due to the use of numerous 'miniature motors', the base determined that this was a 'complex electrical device' rather than the previous 'complex mechanical device'.

The palm of the first-generation prototype can be held alone, the arms can be swung alone, and even with the excellent gyroscope system, it can perform stepping, leapfrog, big jump, and iron bridge.

However, the chip specifications of the remote control tank are slightly larger, and the company does not yet have a "complicated electronic component production line", as well as limitations such as circuit board performance, battery pack capacity and weight. In addition to basic actions, the current prototype can be implanted with up to four sets of military commanders.

Basic movements: walking, running, squatting, jumping back, stepping, jumping, turning around, grabbing, clawing, punching.

General's strategy: straight stab, chop, flurry, block.

Basic actions can be combined with general skills, such as:
Stretch step + straight thrust = thrust.

Big jump + slash = power slash.

However, before making an action, you must consider the balance of the character and whether the force is reasonable, otherwise you will stumble.

And to fight, you must do slow motion.

You strike, I block.

I split, you retreat.

If you don't do slow motion, it is possible that you will be half a beat, or I will be half a beat, and the two sides will fight each other, and eventually they will fight indiscriminately.

This is also the biggest problem facing the laboratory.

After all, this kind of toy has commercial value only when it is "fighted". If you play it randomly, the overall look and feel is not as good as the old mechanical three kingdoms.

However, taking advantage of the experiment, the process of character sparring was recorded, and the picture was even cooler than the King of Fighters.

For example, when punching, lunge, twist the waist, and turn the arms, the whole set of movements is done in one go, and the process of exerting force from the whole body can be seen with the naked eye.

Especially when hitting the test character, even without dubbing, you can still feel a strong sense of shock.

Even according to the scene, simulate the sense of wind, footprints, clouds...

And according to the intensity of the fight, simulate the damage of the appearance of the character...

It's a pity that this is a simulation, and the base does not provide programs, let alone help make games.

Especially the computers in the basic production line cannot be disassembled, otherwise there is no place to repair them, and the high-resolution monitors of their own are all monochrome green screens...

"Otherwise, we can completely beat Bandai and Sega in one fell swoop if we release the Mechatronic characters and launch home consoles at the same time."

Xu Fei returned to the office, counted the stock of rare earth mines, allocated a batch to the laboratory to continue to improve the role, and contacted Zhang Shiren and Gu Wenchang to increase the purchase order of rare earth mines again.

Unexpectedly, both of them said that the price has increased again.

At the beginning, it cost 80 yuan per car, then [-] red notes per car, and now [-] red notes per ton.

"Sitting on the ground and starting the price, asking for money?"

Xu Fei was very dissatisfied with the seller, so he immediately terminated the rare earth ore procurement project, and decided to let the other party talk about it.

Afterwards, I uploaded the test video of mechatronic characters to the Souhu Forum, Artbandai, Sega, Nintendo and so on.

"Just bought a game studio, how about this game?"
