Chapter 114: Armed with a Weapon
"Hahaha……"

Zhao Changhai never thought that he would be able to witness with his own eyes that the once invincible strike group would be frightened away by his own side and retreat in panic!

After more than seventy years, the days when our ancestors were crushed by superior weapons are finally gone forever!
This feeling is like rain after a long drought!
How could Zhao Changhai not be happy?

There was something different in the way he looked at Li Tang.

The three major irons in life, after these few days, can we say that they have faced the same challenges together?
After dinner that day, sitting in Li Tang's office, Zhao Changhai thought about some things that were brewing in Beidu, and his excited heart slowly calmed down.

"Professor Xiao Li, you should have been celebrating and drinking celebratory wine together at this time, but I called you here to talk. Are you feeling confused?"

Li Tang calmly shook his head and said, "They are just taking shelter for a while, and will come back with more force later.

It's too early to celebrate now.

You have been through many battles and have seen through everything. It's normal for you to talk to me about the real winning weapon behind this.

Tell me, how did the higher-ups decide? Buy shares or hand it over directly? "

If the higher-ups had not seen through the power of artificial intelligence before, they must have been horrified after the successive crackdowns on intelligence networks and the decisive victory in ocean electronic warfare.

No, it’s not that I didn’t see through it, but I didn’t dare to believe that Zero could do it before.

Now that it has been confirmed, it is impossible to continue to sit idly by and watch Li Tang continue to possess such a national treasure as an individual.

Zhao Changhai was slightly stunned. Looking at the calm face in front of him, he couldn't imagine how this young scientist could remain so calm.

He originally wanted to be more tactful, but Li Tang revealed it bluntly.

"You think too highly of the higher-ups. Now is the era of knowledge economy. Scientists' inventions and creations are valuable and need to be encouraged and supported.

I still want to hear your thoughts on the above, after all, the issues involved are too big.

Even for artificial intelligence of the magnitude of ChatGPT, countries are now considering legislating for artificial intelligence. "

Li Tang's face became relieved after hearing this, "My idea is very simple, Zero still belongs to the Future Science and Technology Research Institute, but the source code can be registered with the Academy of Sciences.

Zero focuses on the Internet and business, and disconnects from the military and police networks.

With further funding from above, I developed a new artificial intelligence for the core department and used it in the dedicated network.

As for whether to legislate on AI, this is a long-term matter, so we should take it one step at a time.”

After hearing what Li Tang said, Zhao Changhai breathed a sigh of relief:

"Your idea is good, and it basically coincides with what the higher-ups have said. The huge sum of money will soon be allocated through the relevant authorities, and the honors that should be given to you will also be implemented soon."

Li Tang added: "Besides this, let's talk about other things as well."

Zhao Changhai was helpless, "You are so smart. What are your plans for new lithium batteries, carbon-based chips, and new stealth technology?"

Li Tang smiled faintly and said, "Carbon-based chips should be developed in a commercial way. The government should support carbon chips in the same way as it supported the chip industry in the past.

I discussed the new stealth technology with Director Ye last time, and I'm sure Director Yue has recorded it. Just let me know if you have any plans.

But I prefer military product procurement. After all, Datang Precision is also a manufacturer with complete qualifications for military product production.

The remaining lithium crystalline solid batteries can also be commercialized..."

Zhao Changhai said anxiously: "This won't work! It will affect the energy strategy."

Li Tang smiled, "Mr. Zhao, listen to me, it can indeed affect energy strategy, but it has great limitations!"

Zhao Changhai was stunned when he heard this. "What restrictions?"

"Resource reserves!" Li Tang explained:

"The global lithium ore (lithium carbonate) resources are only 1.28 million tons. Last year, my country imported 284 million tons of lithium concentrate and 12.57 tons of lithium carbonate. The two together are equivalent to 48.07 tons of lithium carbonate.

My current planned lithium crystalline solid battery production capacity is 100 billion kWh of electricity reserves, which requires 50 tons of lithium carbonate or 400 million tons of lithium concentrate each year.

Apparently, lithium resources are having trouble keeping up with my capacity expansion..."

Zhao Changhai said: "Shouldn't we control exports even more?"

Li Tang shook his head. "Of course not. I have already classified lithium crystalline solid batteries into grades. For the high-grade ones, we can classify them into military and civilian ones. Wouldn't it be nice to export the low-grade ones for foreign exchange?"

"Your idea is indeed good, but can you guarantee that the technology will not be copied?"

Li Tang smiled confidently, "Of course I can guarantee it."

In fact, the key equipment for producing lithium crystalline solid is the magnetophase analyzer. As long as others cannot get the magnetophase analyzer, lithium crystalline solid materials cannot be produced.

Of course, Li Tang planned to keep this a secret for the time being. He couldn't let his superiors know all the good things at once, otherwise he wouldn't have enough time to reward the merits.

"By the way, Mr. Zhao, since I'm so cooperative here, shouldn't the higher-ups give me some benefits in return?"

Zhao Changhai was stunned and said, "I give you money, land and policies, but you are still not satisfied?" Li Tang shook his head, "Mr. Zhao, I am not talking about the domestic situation. Didn't I just talk about the lithium resource problem? In fact, it is not just lithium resources. Many of our resources are imported.

I have registered and established Daqin Mining, and will vigorously acquire mining resources overseas. However, we must adhere to certain principles and not station troops abroad.

But if we do that, we will have no safety net and suffer big losses in the competition for certain mineral resources, such as mineral resources.”

Zhao Changhai pointed at Li Tang and said, "So, you want to set up a security company to protect overseas interests?"

Li Tang had discussed this matter with the park security last time, so it was normal for it to reach Zhao Changhai.

Li Tang did it on purpose. Since Mr. Zhao didn't say anything, it meant he had no objection.

At this moment, he took the opportunity to give benefits to his superiors to settle the matter.

"Yes, as you can see, our enterprises have gone abroad a lot in recent years, and their overseas assets have reached trillions of dollars. The authorities have also begun to talk about protecting overseas interests.

I have established a security company in a private way to provide overseas security services to our enterprises, which can also be regarded as solving the urgent needs of the country."

Zhao Changhai chuckled, "You said it very nicely, but this security company can't use batons and electric batons to maintain security overseas, right?"

"Of course not. Weapons and equipment are necessary. Datang Precision has the qualification to produce military products and the permission to export some weapons and equipment. It is just right for us to provide products to security companies."

"Don't you think that in this case, the civilian security companies will be armed with powerful weapons and will inevitably have murderous intentions?"

Li Tang replied: "Can't some of us be more flexible in our thinking?
Since we can allow private overseas security companies to be established, we can certainly restrict them from carrying and using weapons in the country.

It is even possible to legislate to regulate the scope of the use of force overseas, etc.

It's impossible that a million-strong army would be afraid of one or two unsystematic armed security forces? That would be like throwing the baby out with the bathwater."

Zhao Changhai showed a gratified smile on his face and said, "Yes, you still understand the overall situation and the general situation. I can make the decision for your overseas security company and promise you.

Let's just do a pilot project. The higher-ups will only provide policies, and you can raise funds, personnel, and equipment on your own."

Although the pilot program can be cancelled at any time, it is better than not allowing it to be done. Besides, if the pilot program is done well, it can be converted to a regular position.

Therefore, Li Tang quickly replied: "No problem, I think this security company must also be a model unit supporting the military.

Veterans in your area must be given absolute priority in employment with high salaries."

"Model unit supporting the military? Okay, that's good, let's do it! I'll hand this matter over to Guoqiang, you can go find him yourself."

Li Tang suddenly felt relieved.

Next, he will initiate a trial against someone from Blue Grain. It is foreseeable that the other party will be involved in a deep-rooted and global intelligence network that has been formed over the years.

In the future, they will inevitably retaliate against their overseas companies.

How can we develop overseas interests without overseas security forces that are completely under our control?

In this regard, China is indeed far behind the times.

Investing huge amounts of wealth overseas while never projecting one's own power, is this tempting robbers?
Can't they just build a few overseas bases for the sake of their own overseas interests?
Well, in that case, it should be ok to do it in the name of the people, right?

Some people will certainly say, as a scientist, can't you just focus on doing research for the country? Why do you have to get involved in these things?

Not to mention that Li Tang had already turned into a life-and-death feud because of the "Hunting Tang Plan" that the other party had first come up with.

Just because he has developed technology that is ahead of this era, if he wants to develop in the small Blue Star village, it is impossible not to affect the vested interests of these new and old nobles.

Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing his parents; some people in our country fail to see the profound meaning behind this sentence.

People have already determined that while you say it's a win-win situation, you actually win twice.

No matter how eloquently you talk about your peaceful rise, even a fool knows that a peaceful rise is still a rise!
In addition, Li Tang’s mind is still constantly integrating the memories of the Dragon Warriors from another time and space in his dream, which has a subtle influence on his current temperament.

In order to reduce the impact of this temporal and spatial memory, Li Tang also took some measures.

For example, tell the memory fragments of the Dragon Warriors to Zero as a story and let it record it.

Read it as if it were a story, thus getting rid of the direct influence of time and space memory.

Don't regard the memories of the Dragon Warriors as your own.

However, anyone who reads a good book or a touching story will be affected by it, which is inevitable.

Fortunately, Li Tang is currently willing to accept this level of influence.

After all, the current time and space is not a beautiful world where all people in the world unite and move towards a community with a shared future.

The storm of competition among great powers is intensifying!
Being in the middle of it, Li Tang should face it head-on, otherwise how can he be worthy of the integrated memory of time and space?
