Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 120

Cheeky!

After arriving at Jaewoo General Hospital, CEO Ahn and I immediately headed to the room where bodyguard Jeong Tae-woo was admitted.

“Okay, Chairman!”

Even though the visit was not reported, the ward was in a state of chaos.

I didn’t announce the news to prevent this from happening in the first place, but it feels like my efforts have been in vain.

“In the case of Tae-Woo Jeong, the lower body is paralyzed due to nerve damage.”

The head of the hospital rushed to me and followed me and informed me of the situation.

That kind of information has already been passed on.

I asked the director to do my best to help him recover, and then I opened the door to the hospital room.

“Is your father very sick?”

The first thing that caught my eye at the moment was the appearance of young children gathered around Agent Jung Tae-woo.

Only three daughters.

Among them, there was a nose bleeder who still needed a mother’s touch, but what was surprising was that there was no such thing as a mother of children, and only an old caregiver was suffering from the anxieties of the children.

“President!”

Jeong Tae-woo, who saw me, immediately tried to get his upper body up.

He waved his hand to deter him, then looked at the children again, and he said with a shy face.

“I’m sorry, the kids wanted to see me, so I asked for permission just for today.”

“You don’t have to worry about it. It’s a one-person room anyway, so it’s a yard that doesn’t harm others. By the way, the mothers of the children are nowhere to be seen.”

At that, Jung Tae-woo smiled awkwardly again.

I wondered if I had made a mistake, but luckily it didn’t seem to be that kind of problem.

“The kids’ mom is also working with her, so she only took her kids and left.”

I suddenly had a question about that.

Even if she has a professional career, it will not be easy for her to maintain her career as a mother of three.

In addition, if the head of the household dares to go to work in such a situation, I wonder if it is because of economic problems.

“Isn’t the salary you’re getting now insufficient?”

But if that’s true, I don’t even understand.

The salaries of the personnel who guard me are higher than that of the head of a large corporation, so there is no reason to be in such a situation.

At that time, Jung Tae-woo spoke again with a shy expression.

“Ah! Actually, my father left behind a lot of debt.”

“If it was such a problem, would you rather give up the inheritance?”

“I wanted to, but the people who helped my father also gave me strength even in a difficult situation. I can’t disappoint those people by asking me to live alone.”

What immediately came to mind was a memory of my childhood.

My biological father who shut down his business and committed suicide.

And even after giving up the inheritance, my biological mother, who could not withstand all kinds of pressures, eventually became ill and passed away.

The memories of the past overlap with Jung Tae-woo’s reality, and one side of his heart sinks.

“I don’t know what to say to comfort you.”

“Consolation. What you have already done for us is enough.”

At that, I glanced at Representative Ahn.

By nodding your head, it feels like you have already delivered my instructions.

But I took another envelope out of my pocket and handed it to him.

“This is something I prepared for myself as a comforter.”

“No, you don’t have to.”

Jung Tae-woo rejected my sincerity in Hansako.

However, I broke his stubbornness by telling him to buy snacks for the children, and then left the hospital room without looking back.

“Why are you in such a hurry?”

Representative Ahn quickly follows up on me and asks, as if puzzled by my attitude of hurriedly leaving the hospital room.

I glanced back at the hospital room and there was still no sound.

I immediately pressed the button on the elevator and told him.

“I want to say no, saying it’s too much of a burden.”

“How much did you put in?”

Shh.

I immediately stretched out one finger.

Then, CEO Ahn spit out a smirk and said:

“It’s a bit high for a child’s pastime, but isn’t it a bit burdensome with only 1 million won?”

“Who said 1 million won?”

I said as if passing by, pressing the button on the elevator that was still not coming down.

Then, CEO Ahn stared blankly at me for a moment, and soon Oh Ha let out a sigh.

“You are so big. Do you want to spend ten million won?”

eating.

At that point, I laughed this time.

With round eyes, he asks with a hopeful expression.

“Oh, so you put 100 million in?”

“You can add one more zero to that.”

Without hesitation, I got into the elevator with the door open.

Representative Ahn was frozen in place as if he was shocked.

I just added one more word.

“What do you do to make money? It should be written in a situation like this.”

“·················ogue.”

******

[The Pentagon announced this morning that they had arrested former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. It is known that the place of arrest was in his hometown, Tigrit […]

December 2003.

After the defeat, Hussein was finally arrested.

The first person to find him was Samir Juan, a correspondent in the US Army of Iraqi descent.

It was only when I saw the news again that the memories of that time began to spring up.

‘After all, that part seems to follow history.’

I felt a sense of relief about that part.

If Hussein’s arrest is delayed according to history, or if he is never caught, we do not know how the future of the Middle East will change.

Moreover, the recent uprising by guerrillas is a situation that is more intense and organized than in history, and if even Hussein had not been captured, the future would have been quite uncertain.

“Chairman, CEO Kim Young-gi is here.”

While thinking about it, I heard the news of CEO Kim’s request for an interview.

He was puzzled by his sudden visit for a while, and he brought in a report on the development status of the K11 complex rifle that Kim, who had just entered, had forgotten.

“Is this a prototype already?”

“Currently, only prototypes of guns with a caliber of 5.56 millimeters have been produced, excluding the means of delivering air explosives and the fire control system.”

Even so, it was true that it was fast.

No matter how simple the structure and components are, gun development involves countless trials and errors to create a proper gun.

But isn’t it unrealistic that a prototype came out in just half a year like this?

“uh?”

For a moment, what caught my eye was the shape of a gun.

No matter how you look at it, it was too similar to the last time Dasan’s researchers had designed it to cope with the K1.

“What happened?”

“Ah, no matter how much research I did, I couldn’t find any other design that could improve the performance of the special-purpose rifle that Dasan’s researchers suggested to the president last time. So, I tried to redesign the barrel a little longer, but the prototype test results were quite satisfactory. No, it did a great job.”

At that time, the thought that came to my mind was the K1 and K2 rifles of our army.

In hindsight, they are also heterogeneous objects derived from a single design idea.

It seems that CEO Kim and his researchers have taken this into account.

“Well, there is no fundamental difference between an infantry rifle and a special-purpose rifle. By the way, what level of performance are you referring to?”

“The biggest drawback of the existing K2 rifle, the excessive barrel overheating phenomenon, was overcome as well as the bullet jamming phenomenon. And the maintenance of normal functions in poor conditions and the convenience of maintenance. Nothing was missing.”

“Is that enough? If you do, I think we can just suggest this gun as our military’s next official rifle?”

“Anyway, I thought so too. So I’m thinking about filing a complaint with the military soon.”

At those words, the corners of his lips rose.

Regardless of whether it is money or not, if the protest is accepted, our military will now be able to signal the start of a full-fledged warrior platform.

In fact, it is difficult at first to change the weapon system, and once you stop the start, it tends to last, but now I am convinced that this rifle can be a starting point.

“Actually, I’m not sure if that will be accepted. Well, it’s not my point of view, but the generals have the idea that if they had the money, they would rather buy another self-propelled gun.”

“It would be. If it’s too bad, people will . . .”

Was it to the extent that the Ministry of National Defense was later called the Ministry of Defense?

Of course, it is an inevitable choice that developed on the basis of the joint operation with the US military, which started after the Korean War.

In other words, the concept that the US military is in charge of air force and naval power, and that we only pour all our power into ground warfare.

But is that really the right direction for the growth of military power?

I think it’s stupid, at least in front of the proposition of a rational military build-up.

– No, why do we need to develop our own alternative fighters? In the yard where cheap and high-performance fighters are already being made by our ally, the United States. Besides, if there is a war, the U.S. military’s capture of air supremacy will be instantaneous, so why do we have to spend money on that?

Suddenly, my thoughts came to mind, and I remembered what a military expert had said in a TV discussion I participated in before returning.

It was a discussion between the pros and the opposing parties over the KFX development issue at the time, maybe?

Even at the time, I was furious and resisted the logic of the opposition, but in the end, the argument that self-development was only a waste of money in the end was later revealed through the media that he took money from the US defense company and ate it.

asshole.

What do you mean by then?

Was it patriotic advice for making the right choice for the country?

“Why aren’t you talking?”

“Oh, nothing. By the way, what happened to the aerial bomb launcher and fire control system?”

“That part is currently at about 40% development progress. After all, the military has set a comparative evaluation of fire control systems after June next year, so there is no rush.”

At the end of his speech, he pushed another report.

A quick look at the launch pad of the attack drone that was recently ordered to be developed and the vehicle to be equipped with it.

I look at it to see if there’s anything wrong with that part, and he scratches his head and says:

“Moveable vehicles are the part that defense should be responsible for.”

“Ah! i See. If you do, I will contact Defense separately.”

“But isn’t the development period too short? Even with launchers and vehicles, it wouldn’t be easy to develop a drone and a control computer to control it, right?”

He said he was concerned.

Well, for him who has not yet fully grasped the technological level of Jaewoo’s lab, it must be a cause for concern.

But for Jaewoo. No, for me, data in the field of attack drones are already piled up, especially sensors and electronic components. And the tactical control algorithm is to the extent that it is possible to realize reality right away.

So, the development period of one year is not necessarily unreasonable.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“There are no obstacles in our development of attack drones. In that regard, the Jaewoo Research Institute must have already handed over the relevant materials to CEO Kim, right?”

“Anyway, I received the report because of the parts that Thales had to produce. However, there was no response to the electro-optical sensor, which is the core of that part.”

“·················ogue.”

Thinking it was surprising, I raised my head again and looked at it.

Actually, that part is one of the core of the attack drone we are going to develop this time, and I didn’t know he would point out such a technical part.

CEO Kim, who made eye contact, continued speaking with an awkward smile.

“I’m also a former defense minister, but I don’t think you even know that much. Anyway, there is definitely a monitoring function among the specifications the president suggested. However, there is no electro-optical sensor module in the world that can be mounted on a drone of that size.”

He pinched the stretch facts.

After all, it is virtually impossible to put all the sensors in a drone that is only 150 millimeters in diameter, and even mount an optical sensor module on it.

No, even if there is a product that will make that possible, the price is actually an issue.

The electro-optical sensor module used for weapons costs tens of millions of won, and if you only mount it on a drone, your belly button will be bigger than your stomach.

But if you find a way, there is.

“We already have the technology to build an electronic optical system and an image processing sensor that can be mounted on such a small drone.”

“·················ogue.”

President Kim rolled his eyes at those words.

It’s unavoidable because they exist close to outsiders.

He put the pen he was holding down for a moment and said to him.

“Take smart cannons as an example. President Kim, how do you think we put all the precision guidance functions into that small shell?”

“Come to think of it······.”

CEO Kim blinked his eyes as if he remembered that fact belatedly.

When I remembered that there was a catalog of smart shells that we had developed in the drawer, I immediately took it out and brought it to CEO Kim.

“Aside from any other explanation, we are the micro-mechanism system. In other words, we have the world’s best technology in terms of MEMS development capability. Simply put, it is possible to dramatically reduce the size and price of any type of sensor. So, you have nothing to worry about.”

“Ah, because I didn’t know about that part. Anyway, it would be nice if that could be resolved.”

eating.

I signed the paperwork with a short smile.

Afterwards, when I handed it back to CEO Kim, the cell phone that was on the desk suddenly vibrated loudly.

“Huh?”

The caller was none other than Lee Young-hoon, managing director of Samjong Group.

I was still curious about the news, so I quickly pressed the call button and he spoke in a shriveled voice.

– Chairman Jin. I’m sorry, but would you like to have time to chat with me?

“·················ogue.”

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-121
