My science and technology museum

The template information on the information screen in the upper space of the museum is basically the same as that in the lobby, except for the value in the influence column.

Name: Hammer Cruiser

Level: Second level civilization

Evaluation: Underneath the honest and simple appearance, there is a heavy rail gun hidden.

Influence: 30 million/43.2 million

Collection unit: Universe Civilization Science and Technology Museum

In the past, to unlock new exhibits, influence was earned from scratch using the contribution of the exhibits in the real world. New exhibits could not be unlocked until a limited value was obtained.

As a result, Future Technology releases new products very quickly.

The potential of the last product is still on the rise, and a new product launch conference has already been held.

The upper space of the museum eliminates the need for unlocking, and all exhibits can be viewed. It is normal for the expression of influence to change.

The key is to figure out what the numbers mean.

"Is the thirty million in the front the value of this exhibit?" Xu Lei carefully looked at the content on the information screen, folded his arms in front of his chest and rubbed his chin with his left hand as if thinking: "As for the one in the back?"

The next second, his eyes suddenly flickered, and he quickly stretched out his finger and touched the annotation button in the lower right corner of the information screen.

It's like I understand something.

Unlike before where all the detailed technical knowledge about the exhibits appeared directly, this time only a prompt text pops up.

Still a standard system font.

"You will deduct 30 million influence points to obtain viewing permissions. Do you want to continue this operation?"

"Sure enough, it's just as I guessed." Looking at this prompt, Xu Lei couldn't help but curled his lips and showed helplessness on his face.

There is no free lunch in the world, and he was still too happy too early.

In fact, after Xu Lei saw the data in the influence column, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Recalling the influence he had earned by unlocking the exhibits in the hall, he quickly settled in.

After careful calculation, he has unlocked so many exhibits and his influence has exceeded 30 million.

In addition, as the sales volume of the exhibits continues to increase, the influence will still grow, and today's value of more than 40 million is about the same.

Therefore, the column of the exhibit's influence in the upper space represents the value of all the technical knowledge of the exhibit and the total amount of influence it currently has.

In other words, although he does not need to unlock the exhibits in the upper space, he does need to pay for viewing rights.

But from another perspective, he is also equivalent to mastering a treasure trove that brings together the technologies of all civilizations in the universe.

As long as the influence is sufficient, it is possible to turn mankind into a level four cosmic civilization.

"Forget it, if you think about it carefully, this is not a bad thing. At worst, you will work hard to gain influence later." These thoughts flashed through Xu Lei's mind quickly, and he was relieved and looked at the prompt message again: "But this The cruise ship manufacturing technology must be acquired.”

While humming to himself, he pressed OK without hesitation.

Star battleships are indispensable equipment for humans to deal with extraterrestrial civilizations, not to mention that this heavy cruiser, as a secondary civilization technology, just meets the screening criteria.

Besides, with the influence requirement of controllable nuclear fusion technology reaching tens of millions, the requirement of thirty million for a second-level civilization warship is not too much.

As the influence points are deducted, familiar content instantly appears on the information screen.

It is the performance data description of the heavy hammer cruiser, the detailed structural manufacturing drawings, and the detailed theoretical and technical knowledge.

The various formulas and data involved would probably be beyond the comprehension of any physics professor.

Thinking is not on the same level at all.

Of course, Xu Lei doesn't care at all about the difficulty of relevant technical knowledge.

Not to mention the various advanced scientific and technological knowledge he has in his mind, the addition of his identity as the museum owner alone allows him to easily integrate these contents in the museum space, and even evolve other new products based on them. , it can be said that 30 million influence is definitely well spent.

…

…

The Longfor High-tech Park at night is even more dazzling under the influence of lights than during the day.

In particular, the uniquely shaped headquarters building looks like an interstellar battleship sailing in space when looking up, exuding a scornful aura.

It's like a giant beast entrenched, which is spectacular.

Xu Lei, who had just arrived in Binjiang City and got out of the car, was about to go back to where he lived when he happened to meet Chen Shihe.

"Why haven't you rested yet? Didn't I say you don't need to pick up the phone?" Xu Lei stopped in front of Chen Shihe and said with a frown.

"Not very sleepy now." Chen Shihe looked at Xu Lei and smiled.

Xu Lei sighed and said, "Okay then, come to the room with me. I happen to have a few things to explain."

"Okay Mr. Xu."

Chen Shihe nodded and quickly followed.

In order to be busy with the fusion power station in Jingzhou City, Xu Lei basically stayed there during this period, and did not even return to Binjiang City during the Spring Festival.

And she still has to be responsible for the company's business and maintain normal operations with Lu Hongbo, Jia Zhongjie and others. It can be said that she has not spoken to Xu Lei for a long time.

So after learning that the other party was coming back tonight, I specially waited in the headquarters building.

If other people had to go to the boss's room to talk about work at night, they would definitely complain and think that they were deprived of rest time, but Chen Shihe was just happy and excited.

"Mr. Xu, will you go to other cities to preside over the construction of fusion power plants? I want to take the time to report to you on the company's affairs." Chen Shihe took the initiative to break the atmosphere in the elevator.

In Chen Shihe's view, there are still many provinces that need fusion power plants to complete the reform of traditional energy.

The fact that Xu Lei is so concerned about the fusion power station in Jingzhou City shows that he attaches great importance to the energy sector and will not stay in Binjiang City for a long time.

But Xu Lei gave the opposite answer.

"The focus of my future work will be on the research institute. As for the company, I feel relieved that there are people in charge."

At the moment, most of Xu Lei's thoughts are still on the museum, so his answer is naturally more concise, just telling him his itinerary.

After he transferred all the detailed technical knowledge of the Hammer Cruiser into his mind, he controlled his consciousness and left the museum space.

Mainly to obtain access to the hammer cruiser technology, 30 million of influence has been used, and only more than 10 million of influence is useless. Instead of just looking at the exhibits, it is better to determine the follow-up. Execute the plan.

First of all, the manufacturing of the Heavy Cruiser must be carried out as soon as possible. With such an interstellar battleship, the construction progress of the Mars military base can also be rapidly improved.

After all, the cruise ship is much larger than the Shenzhou spacecraft.

Another important thing is to find ways to earn as much influence as possible.

Because only if you have enough influence, you can view various technological exhibits in the museum without scruples.

Judging from the current situation, building a fusion power station is undoubtedly the fastest way to gain influence. If all mankind can use the energy provided by the fusion power station, then Xu Lei is sure that he can earn at least tens of millions of influence. force.

At that time, you might be able to purchase two technological exhibits of the second-level civilization.

However, the construction cost of fusion power stations is too high, and time, resources and talents need to be ensured.

At least it can't be built in large quantities now.

Unless the world forms a whole, it directly uses the world's resources to gain influence.

But it is not easy to achieve this kind of thing. In short, it requires long-term planning.

Just as these thoughts flashed through Xu Lei's mind and were rejected one after another, they finally arrived at their residence in the headquarters building.

Xu Lei casually took off his jacket and handed it to Chen Shihe. The moment he sat on the sofa, he felt much more relaxed.

During this period of time, in order to gain influence, he focused all his energy on the construction of the fusion power station in Jingzhou City. Relatively speaking, he worked a lot and had almost no time to take a good rest.

Now that I'm back at my place, my mental and physical condition has recovered.

Seeing this scene, Chen Shihe hung up his coat and took the initiative to pour a glass of water, handed it to Xu Lei and said, "Mr. Xu, did you just say you had something to explain?"

"There are a few things." Xu Lei took the water cup and replied: "From tomorrow on, all our products will be reduced by 30% in price. Smart medical cabins and nano-medical robots will be available for private purchase. In addition, we have to do more Good publicity to build up the buzz.”

Exhibits unlocked from museums can continue to gain influence after being used in the real world.

Since there is an urgent need for massive influence and the construction of fusion power stations takes a lot of time, we can only start with previous products.

Lowering the price and promoting it will definitely lead to an explosive increase in product sales.

Especially in poorer areas overseas.

No matter how much influence you get in the end, it’s always a good thing to add up.

As for the 30% price reduction, this is Xu Lei's initial decision, and will be adjusted later based on the actual situation.

The main future technology is now a behemoth. To ensure stable operation, a large amount of money needs to be consumed every day. Therefore, the selling price of the product can only be adjusted within the range. It will definitely not work if it is completely changed to free.

If this is the case, it will only plunge the world into chaos, which will not be conducive to subsequent layout.

When Chen Shihe heard that he was about to explain such a thing, he was stunned for two seconds before he realized what he was saying. A trace of surprise flashed across his beautiful face.

"All of them?"

Xu Lei nodded: "Yes, it's all."

After confirming his question, Chen Shihe took a breath and showed a very puzzled expression.

The company's product pricing is already very favorable, and if you want to lower it by another 30%, this is no longer charity, is it? It's just throwing money away.

After all, charity donates the most money, but with the scale of future technology, the losses involved are an unimaginable astronomical figure.

But although she didn't know Xu Lei's intention of doing this, she didn't raise any objection out of trust.

Just responded as before: "I know Mr. Xu, I will discuss this matter with others as soon as possible to formulate an implementation plan."

He raised his head and drank all the water in the cup. When he noticed the change in the expression on Chen Shihe's face, Xu Lei knew exactly what she was worried about.

During his absence, Chen Shihe, Lu Hongbo, Jia Zhongjie and others were mainly responsible for the company's business. From their perspective, they naturally wanted to see the company gain greater benefits.

Because this is the best recognition of their work.

Now a sudden price reduction for all products will definitely affect the company's profits.

However, Xu Lei did not tell his true intention. After all, the two sides looked at the problem from different perspectives.

As long as it can bring influence to itself, losing part of the company's profits is nothing. Moreover, since the virtual world has become the real second world of mankind, product sales revenue only accounts for a small part of the company's total profits.

"The price reduction is meant to be used to commemorate the 12th anniversary of the company's establishment to give back to users. In addition, the supply of goods must be sufficient." Xu Lei added after thinking for a while.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly spoke again: "And... I'll let Xing Tong handle the rest."

Unfortunately, in the end, it was only half the story.

At this time, seeing that the silent atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, Chen Shihe had to take the initiative to leave after a brief hesitation.

"Mr. Xu, if there is nothing else, I won't disturb your rest."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xu Lei subconsciously turned his head and looked at Chen Shihe's back, with a complicated look in his eyes.

To be honest, after learning about the existence of extraterrestrial civilization, he really had the idea of ​​being his boss with peace of mind, being with Chen Shihe and having a few fat boys to enjoy his last days.

However, the existence of the Science and Technology Museum gave him the confidence to defeat extraterrestrial civilization.

In this case, he can only focus on ensuring that the entire human civilization continues in the solar system.

Otherwise everything will cease to exist, and that is the greatest pain.

But just when Chen Shihe's back was about to completely disappear from sight, he shouted for the first time: "Don't let yourself work too hard. Your body is more important than the company's business."

The moment this sentence reached Chen Shihe's ears, his steps suddenly stopped, and then he turned around and showed a gentle and happy smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, I will pay special attention to it." He is still young and beautiful in his thirties. , giving people a contrast that makes them easily excited.

In response, Xu Lei turned around and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

And when he was the only one left in the room, he immediately woke up Xing Tong.

"Good evening, boss, how can I serve you?"

Because after Xing Tong's mechanical body also returned from Jingzhou City, Xu Lei temporarily placed it in the Future Technology Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, so that what appeared in the room now was a holographic three-dimensional model of Xing Tong.

"Inform all the staff of the institute that I will hold a meeting next Monday, and Li Chengzhe will also participate." Looking at the almost real-life holographic three-dimensional image in front of him, Xu Lei gave the order.

On the way back to Binjiang City, after Xu Lei's consciousness separated from the space of the Science and Technology Museum, he thought about specific manufacturing plans based on the contents of battleship manufacturing technology in his mind.

A more ideal way is to first manufacture the components of the warship on Earth and then transport them to space through a space elevator.

Assembly is finally completed at the near-Earth spaceport.

As a result, the Future Science and Technology Fusion Research Institute has become a suitable place to manufacture warship components.

This time, Xingtong was asked to inform everyone to attend the institute's meeting to announce the Hammer cruiser manufacturing project, in an effort to concentrate the efforts of the entire institute to complete the first warship as soon as possible.

As for the fusion power station, relevant scientific researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences will first be responsible for continuing the construction.

Although the efficiency will be relatively low, the transfer of nuclear fusion knowledge in the virtual world is still continuing. It is believed that a large number of scientists who can participate in fusion power plants and nuclear fusion power devices will soon be trained.

At that time, all aspects of equipment manufacturing will lead to a big explosion.

It will definitely bring massive influence to Xu Lei.

The reason why Li Chengzhe was asked to participate was because Xu Lei had another use for him.

Now that Pei Hongyin has finally retired due to his age and other issues, this has left the position of deputy dean of the institute and research center vacant.

For now, Lee Seung-cheol is the most suitable candidate to take over.

Unlike other scientific researchers, Li Chengzhe has a very deep understanding of the technologies related to controllable nuclear fusion. It would be a waste of talent to continue the construction of fusion power stations.

Participating in the heavy cruiser manufacturing project allowed him to reach a new level.

But if you want to recruit people from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yang Senping must say hello.

besides.

The space agency should also invite scientists in this field to help.

Ensure smooth construction of the Hammer Cruiser.

You must know that in Xu Lei's preliminary plan, the hammer cruiser, the strongest weapon and equipment of human civilization, must be equipped with a dozen ships first.

Of course, it is still difficult to achieve this step. At least the hammer cruiser must first show its absolute power in front of all mankind.

"Okay boss."

"Connect to Yang Senping. I want to talk to him."

Seeing Xingtong finish processing the previous instruction, Xu Lei then initiated a video call with Yang Senping to discuss the issue with him about Li Chengzhe.

…

Two days on the weekend.

Due to the decision made by Xu Lei himself, the behemoth of Future Technology finally showed its strong foundation under the operation of all parties.

In just half a day, all the company's products have launched price reduction activities to reward users for their 12th anniversary, and the publicity intensity can be called overwhelming.

The homepages of major platform websites can be found everywhere.

The most important thing is that this event is for global users, which is completely different from the previous one that only targeted domestic users.

In addition, the price of all the company's products has been reduced by 30%, which is simply unprecedented.

Almost instantly it became a hot topic around the world.

No one thought that future technology would suddenly offer such a big discount.

You must know that Future Technology's products represent the world's top advanced technology, and the prices are already very favorable. Even if this price reduction activity is not carried out, there will be no shortage of sales.

Since no one can guess the purpose of Future Technology's move, they can only blame it on Xu Lei who is giving back to society and is a truly conscientious entrepreneur.

But no matter what the starting point of this matter is, it is a good thing for users. You can see everyone's joy and excitement in the comment area of ​​the relevant content video.

"This price reduction is simply unprecedented. It would be impossible for other companies to achieve this. This is indeed the Mr. Xu whom I admire."

"Mr. Xu has hinted to this point. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and buy whatever you want!"

"Although the virtual helmet is cheap, it is really not very comfortable. Today I took the opportunity to experience the entire virtual cabin."

"What I'm most happy about is that smart medical cabins can be purchased privately. It seems that Future Technology has sufficient supply this time. If I miss this village, I don't know how long it will take to have a similar opportunity."

"The smart medical cabin is really worth owning, especially after spending most of the time in the virtual world, people don't want to go out."

"While you are still figuring out what to buy, the smart people are already waiting for the express delivery."

"I didn't believe that Mr. Xu was not interested in money before, but today I completely believe it."

“I’m just asking you which other company can do this?”

"Compared with the boss of the company, I prefer his status as an academician. Future technology should be something that all mankind can be proud of."

…

But in fact, because China is the first region where each product is launched, there is not much market demand.

Products such as holographic smart quantum terminal equipment and virtual helmets are almost reaching saturation. However, sales of smart medical cabins and nano-medical robots have increased significantly after they were opened to private purchase.

But overseas areas are different.

Maybe some developed places are similar to China, but there are very few people in poor and backward forces who can afford to buy future technological products.

Nowadays, the reputation of future technology has spread all over the world. Who doesn’t want to buy a virtual helmet to experience an almost real virtual world and virtual games? Now that there is such a good discount opportunity, you have to buy it even if you want to sell it.

Everyone knows that the virtual world is a special existence. If you want to get rid of production and not do the same work as those intelligent industrial robots, you must have a virtual helmet.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the product sales of related future technology companies in overseas regions have repeatedly exceeded new highs.

Invisibly, Xu Lei's influence has steadily increased.

But what the public doesn't know yet is that a project related to the entire human civilization is slowly unfolding at the Future Technology Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

——

"Now that everyone is here, let's officially start the meeting."

Monday, September 10, 2029.

Binjiang City.

Ping County.

Future Technology Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

The conference lecture hall was located on the dean's seat in the middle. Xu Lei looked around at the people below and said these opening remarks.

Li Chengzhe, who was sitting in the vice dean's seat to the left of Xu Lei, was full of curiosity, looking forward to what new project Xu Lei could attach so much importance to.

After he returned to Binjiang City, he received a call from Yang Senping. After learning that he was going to join the Future Technology Fusion Institute to participate in a new project, he agreed without saying a word.

Especially when he thought about the fact that Xu Lei didn't say anything about the new project when he was in Jingzhou City, it proved that this project was definitely not simple.

How could he miss such a rare opportunity.

As for the seat on the right, there was also a familiar figure. Xu Lei specially called Wu Chuping over to help. In addition to relying on his experience in spacecraft manufacturing, the subsequent assembly of the battleship also required the help of the space agency.

In basically the same mood as Li Chengzhe, Wu Chuping was also interested in the new project mentioned by Xu Lei.

After all, with his relationship with Xu Lei, he could rush from Dengtian Island to Ping County, Binjiang City with just one word. As for the specific content of the project, he didn't ask at all.

…
