Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 413: Transforming Nuclear Submarine
"It's like this!" Wang Yang walked to the window and said, "I suddenly had a scientific research idea this morning!"

"?" Charles was suddenly startled and asked quickly, "What is the scientific research inspiration?"

Charles knew that Wang Yang's scientific research ability was very outstanding. He was able to repair the F22 and the lithography machine without any contact with it!
"The scientific research ideas this kid has must be amazing. Maybe he can develop something that shocks the world!" Charles said excitedly in his heart.

It’s not that Charles thinks too highly of Wang Yang, but he knows what Wang Yang’s scientific research ability means!
"I came up with a scientific research idea about nuclear submarines. So, I want to modify the scrapped nuclear submarine in the navy's hands according to my scientific research ideas!"

Modify a nuclear submarine? Charles was stunned when he heard this, and was a little surprised that it was this request.

But after thinking about it, he said: "Since you made this request, it means that you are somewhat confident that you can successfully modify the nuclear submarine. But..."

Charles frowned and pondered for a while, gradually making a decision in his heart!

Then he said, "Mr. Lin, this matter is too big, I can't give you an answer for the time being. I need to have a meeting with the Navy to discuss it. I will give you an answer after the meeting."

"Okay!" Wang Yang replied.

He knew that Charles, an air force admiral, could not make the decision on this matter. First of all, nuclear submarines are naval weapons; secondly, nuclear submarines are very important weapons and equipment! So applying to modify it is not a trivial matter and requires the consent of many people!
"Then I'll go prepare for the meeting now!"

"Ah."

As soon as Wang Yang finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone.

Wang Yang slowly put down the phone in his hand, looked over the window lattice, and cast his eyes to the distant scenery, thinking silently in his heart: "Next, I will wait for the call back..."

……

The camera switches and we come to Charles' office.

Charles also ended the call, his heart mixed with excitement and doubt. He frowned, thought for a moment, reached out for the landline, and began to call the president to request an emergency meeting.

……

Time passed to the afternoon, and the atmosphere in Gong Bai's meeting room was solemn.

The president sat at the main seat at the rectangular conference table, with many senior officials on both sides. They looked confused and curious about this sudden meeting, wondering what would be discussed.

The president looked around, finally fixed his eyes on Charles, and said softly: "Charles, you come to explain the situation to everyone."

"Yes!" Charles nodded in agreement, and then went straight to the point, "This morning, I received a call from Wang Yang, and he made a request."

When everyone heard this, they were surprised and looked at him curiously, wanting to know what the request was.

"He said that he suddenly had a scientific research inspiration this morning and hoped to try to modify a scrapped Ohio-class nuclear submarine in the hands of the Navy." Charles said, turning his gaze to Admiral Brody Smith.

When this was said, everyone was surprised. They didn't expect it to be like this. After being surprised, they regained their composure.

One of the senior officials pondered for a moment and said, "Wang Yang has amazing scientific research capabilities. If we agree to his request, we may be able to develop a more powerful nuclear submarine for our country. But this matter is too sudden. Only a few days have passed, and he has proposed to modify the nuclear submarine. Isn't it a bit strange?"

"I have the same concern," another senior official echoed.

"Yeah, I always feel something is wrong!"...

Several senior officials expressed their doubts. They believed that although Wang Yang's scientific research ability was outstanding, this matter was too abrupt and they could not rest assured.

However, some senior officials disagreed: "I don't agree with you. The result of our previous discussion was to let Wang Yang adapt for a period of time before giving him tasks. Now that a few days have passed, he may have adapted and want to start new R&D projects."

"That's right! We can't look at Wang Yang like this. He is now a scientific researcher in our country!"...

Several senior officials believed that Wang Yang sincerely wanted to modify nuclear submarines for the United States and had no other intentions.

After hearing this, the president frowned, his eyes flashing with wisdom.

He looked at Charles and asked, "Charles, what do you think about this?"

Charles heard this, glanced at the president, then glanced at the senior officials present, and after a moment's silence, he said, "When I first heard about this, I was very excited. With Wang Yang's scientific research ability, since he made this request, it means that he has the confidence to modify the nuclear submarine to be more powerful. But then, I had concerns again. As you just said, this matter is indeed too sudden."

He looked at the senior officials who expressed their doubts, paused and continued: "But now I understand. What else can Wang Yang do? He is no longer welcome in China, so he can only stay in our country and work for us. Therefore, how can we not trust him? Besides, if we reject his research request this time, what will he think of us? We have promised to support him as long as he needs it. Now, he proposes to modify the nuclear submarine, how can we refuse? Do we want to let the world see that the world's hegemon is actually untrustworthy?"

Charles' words left those high-ranking officials who were skeptical speechless, because every word he said was reasonable and impeccable.

After a moment's silence, the president turned his attention to Lucas Baker, president of the U.S. Academy of Sciences, and asked, "Lucas, you are a scientist, what do you think about this?"

Lucas nodded, looked at Charles and said, "There is an old Chinese saying, 'Don't employ a person you doubt, and don't doubt a person you employ.' Since we have already allowed Wang Yang to become a US citizen, we should not doubt him anymore. Besides, it has been a few days. If he really wanted to do something fishy in the name of modifying nuclear submarines, he would have proposed it long ago and would not have waited until now. Also, you said you are worried about Wang Yang and suspect that there is something fishy about his request. Then when can you trust him? Three months? One year? Or three to five years? This is obviously unrealistic. Wang Yang is such an outstanding scientific researcher, we should let him get into scientific research as soon as possible."

Lucas' words were even more direct than Charles'. As a scientist, he hated to see anyone hindering scientific research.

These words left those senior officials who were skeptical even more speechless, and some even began to think that what Lucas said made sense.

Wang Yang has already become a U.S. citizen, so sooner or later he will be able to engage in scientific research.

If I don't trust him this time, then when can I trust him? I have to give him a chance to prove himself, right?

"I think what Dean Baker said makes sense." At this time, a senior official spoke up.

"I think so too," another senior official echoed.

"..."

Everyone agreed.

The president was relieved when he saw this, so he looked at Admiral Brody Smith and asked, "Brody, you are an admiral, what do you think about this?"

"Yeah." Brody nodded and said, "I think what Dean Baker said makes sense. We should give Wang Yang a chance to prove his loyalty instead of sitting here and suspecting that he is up to something."

Brody thinks that what Charles and Lucas said makes sense, and the nuclear submarine is currently in the hands of his subordinate Thomas.

At that time, in order to sell it to Wang Yang, the core device had been dismantled, but due to a series of events, the transaction was not successful and the nuclear submarine has been parked in the repair shop of the military port.

Seeing that Brody held the same opinion, the president stopped talking and directly expressed his own views: "Then let me tell you what I think. Wang Yang is a very powerful scientific researcher, and everyone knows this. Since he proposed to modify the Ohio-class nuclear submarine, it means that he is confident that it will be modified to be more powerful. In this way, the power of our US nuclear submarines will be raised to a higher level, and the whole world will be shocked by it! So, this is a good thing! I think we should give Wang Yang this opportunity! However, we must be on guard against others. I suggest that Wang Yang live in the naval base. This way, we can monitor him and ensure the safety of the nuclear submarines. What do you think?"

There was a gleam of wisdom in the president's eyes, and he felt that his method was perfect.

Even if Wang Yang has second thoughts, the nuclear submarine and he himself are under the control of the US Navy, so what can he do?
The eyes of the senior officials present brightened up when they heard this. Even those who had previously distrusted Wang Yang thought this method was feasible.

"I think so!"

"This is a good idea!" "..."

The president heard the crowd's approval, smiled and said, "Then let's vote by raising our hands!"

After saying that, he was the first to raise his right hand, and the senior officials on both sides of the conference table also raised their right hands, including Charles, Lucas, Xavier and Admiral Brody.

"I second the motion!"

"I second the motion!"

"..."

Passed unanimously.

The president smiled with satisfaction and put down his hand. But at this time, a senior official suddenly thought of something and frowned and said, "Since Wang Yang wants to modify a nuclear submarine, why don't we give him a nuclear submarine that is in service? Isn't this much better than giving him a scrapped and unusable nuclear submarine? Moreover, giving him a nuclear submarine that is in service can also let him see our sincerity!"

As soon as these words came out, several people immediately echoed: "Yes! That's indeed the truth!"

However, Admiral Brody Smith shook his head and said, "All nuclear submarines in service have their own cruise missions. Moreover, the modification will definitely take a lot of time. During this time, what should be done with the cruise missions in the area?"

"..."

When these words were spoken, everyone looked shocked.

Just now, everyone was still immersed in Wang Yang's heartfelt words, thinking that they made a lot of sense, and didn't think much about anything else.

However, Brody's words made them suddenly realize.

Indeed, every nuclear submarine has the responsibility of cruising.

And the modification work cannot be completed overnight...

"Okay." The president said, turning his gaze to Brody, "Let Wang Yang modify your scrapped nuclear submarine!"

"Understood!" Brody agreed readily.

"Okay, arrange for Wang Yang to stay at the naval base tomorrow!" the president ordered.

……

After the meeting, Charles returned to the office and immediately called Alia and asked her to pass the call to Wang Yang.

He then explained the results of the meeting to Wang Yang in detail and informed him that he would be sent to the naval base tomorrow to begin the modification work of the nuclear submarine.

The call then ended.

Charles put down his phone, his face showing joy, his heart full of anticipation, "I really don't know what kind of nuclear submarine this kid will build!"

He has full confidence in Wang Yang.

Since Wang Yang said so, he must be able to modify it into an excellent nuclear submarine!
……

The scene changes to Thomas's luxurious sea view villa.

In front of the large LCD TV, Alia sat on the expensive carpet, holding the PS5 DualSense controller tightly in her hand. However, she was not immersed in the game at the moment, but turned her head to look at Wang Yang's back in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Admiral James called just now and asked Wang Yang to answer the phone. Now they have been talking for a few minutes, but Alia is not sure what they talked about.

Wang Yang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. The call had ended, but his face was filled with smiles and he was extremely excited.

"It worked! This reason is really something they can't refuse!"

Wang Yang had a hunch that they would agree, because no country would refuse strong and powerful military weapons, especially a country like the United States that has always aspired to dominate the world!

Although it was just a guess before, now that it has been really agreed upon, Wang Yang is naturally very excited!

"The next step is maintenance work! Huaguo, wait, I will go back sooner or later!" Wang Yang was filled with pride!
However, a few seconds later, he suddenly thought of something and his expression darkened.

After a little hesitation, he turned around and looked at the blonde beauty who was sitting on the carpet in front of the TV, looking at him with confusion and curiosity in her eyes.

He walked towards Aaliyah, "Come on, let's continue playing games!" Wang Yang smiled, cleverly concealing the negative emotions in his eyes, and sat down next to Aaliyah.

Then he picked up the DualSense controller on the ground and started playing the game.

Aaliyah looked at him and instinctively realized that something was wrong. She opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but finally held back...

……

As night falls, dinner is prepared by Wang Yang himself.

Alia originally wanted to fry steak, but after a "battle" in the kitchen, she was defeated and had to give the use of the kitchen to Wang Yang.

The table was filled with Chinese dishes, including fish, meat, and prawns, and a bottle of red wine.

The two ate and talked, laughing all the time.

Just then, a cell phone rang suddenly.

The two people's laughter came to an abrupt end.

Wang Yang looked at Ailiya. Ailiya took out her cell phone from her pocket and saw that it was a call from Major General Gary.

She was stunned and felt even more confused.

She looked up at Wang Yang and said, "Mr. Lin, Major General Anderson called me. I'll go pick it up."

"...Okay." Wang Yang smiled and nodded.

Aaliyah stood up and walked aside to answer the phone, "Hello, this is Aaliyah."

"Alia, your mission is over. You don't need to monitor Wang Yang anymore. He will be sent to the naval base tomorrow!" Gary's order came through the phone.
