The end of technology.

So there are actually a lot of people in Wu Gang at this time.As long as the level of secrecy is enough, they will stay busy on the ship these days, even if it is just to take a look.In addition to satisfying some vanity, the most important thing is that after the Wu Gang officially sets sail, there are not many people in the engineering maintenance team who can stay on the Wu Gang. There have been rumors that only one engineering maintenance will be left for each system in the future. The supervisor is with an engineering maintenance team, and the staffing of a team is no more than 6 to 8 people.

This is a giant space exploration ship that can accommodate 2 people, and such a small number of engineering and maintenance personnel is obviously not enough.However, according to the plan, the main system maintenance after launch is done by engineering robots.And the main system modules are matched with the robotic arm for automatic maintenance.In addition, there is even a small processing plant for N1 robots on the Wu Gang.There are also various key accessories and consumable parts of the N1 robot in the warehouse.This also means that Wu Gang will also have self-processing capabilities.

Not to mention anything else, at least it is full in terms of security.After seeing the efficiency and capabilities of the N1 robot, it is enough for the most rigorous engineers to give this robot [-]% trust.Of course, there is actually March's credit for this, but everyone doesn't know that there is such a big boss behind the base.

Without knowing it, everyone in the entire base naturally exchanged that expectation and longing for a bearer.

That's right, it's Ning Zi.

It is an indisputable fact that Ning Zi is the pioneer of strong artificial intelligence.

Whether it is the artificial intelligence voice assistant on the M10 or Apple's Siri, it proves this point.

So no one doubted that the artificial intelligence analysis platform suitable for the base was built and maintained by Ning Zi himself.Maybe there is another team behind Ning, but there is no doubt that the main designer must be him.

This also gave Ning Zi a very special status on the Wu Gang, and even the entire base.

As we all know, most people who are serious and skilled have high spirits.To be more specific, they often think highly of themselves and don't fit in well with others.Being proud of one's talents is often not a purely derogatory term. After all, people who can be evaluated for their talents are more or less talented.

Therefore, many capable people are also thorns in the eyes of managers, and they often complain about laymen leading experts.

But there are no such problems at the base.

Because technical people with higher aspirations tend to show a higher degree of obedience than the kings after being subdued.They will worship managers who are stronger than themselves in the professional field from their hearts.Just like a genius like Ning Zi.Just like Chen Luo.

Especially when this miracle of engineering is right in front of everyone, Ning Zi's reputation among this group of people has actually reached its peak.

To put it inappropriately, the scientists and engineers on this ship were even more religious than Neeson Mountbatten.After all, the latter is extremely purposeful, and the belief has never been pure.

So when Ning Zi appeared on the Wu Gang, he could probably imagine what kind of treatment he would have.

Every time he passed a node, the people who were doing the final inspection would spontaneously stop their work and say hello to him, smiling and nodding in return, making Ning Zi's facial muscles stiffen.This is because most of the work inside the Wu Gang is undertaken by engineering robots.

Finally bypassing the power node of the third assembly on the ground floor, Ning Zi came to an elevator. The camera at the elevator entrance flashed twice as if in a perfunctory manner, and then the elevator door opened directly.

Ning Zi walked directly into the elevator. Unlike ordinary elevators, there was no button representing the floor in the elevator car, but when Ning Zi walked into the elevator, the elevator doors closed automatically and began to run automatically.

When the elevator stops and the elevator door opens, you will see 270-degree full screens, all of which have countless data jumping, and the only chair in the middle is sitting on a small chair. Cat, at this time the kitten has already jumped down from the seat, staring at Ning Zi with wide eyes.

"Meow……"

The kitten purred affectionately.

Ning Zi walked over, and naturally sat on the chair surrounded by countless screens, and then the kitten dexterously jumped onto Ning Zi's lap.

"Where is the progress of Wu Gang?"

"Meow, 80.00% of the gravity control system has been completed, and all other systems have completed three simulation tests. At present, various departments are conducting final detailed inspections according to the pre-startup procedures. It is expected that the Wu Gang will be able to carry out the sea trial according to the original plan, so you already You can send invitations widely."

"Yeah." Ning Zi nodded, raised his hand and stroked his chin for a moment, and said, "It's indeed time to start, please invite everyone. This time the temple is indeed worth everyone to come and see."

"Meow, I have also received more than 900 cooperation applications, 90.00% of which are invalid applications, and I have already eliminated them. Among them, there are 87 laboratories and research institutions with strength and financial resources. Maybe we should put them in Wu Gang The fee schedule for stationing on board has been announced."

"There's no rush, wait until after the official maiden voyage of the Wu Gang."

"Meow, as you wish. Then do you need me to help you prepare the speech for the maiden voyage of the Wu Gang?"

This question made Ning Zi hesitate for a moment, then smiled, and said, "I suddenly feel that I am indeed qualified to read the speech you wrote."

"Meow, look at what you said... In fact, all the speeches I wrote for you are very targeted. Prompting the right words at the right position is the most basic ability that a small secretary should master! Please don't question my abilities, Master."

Chapter 234 The Ideal Times

In a luxurious house in Washington State, USA, an important meeting is going on.

There were only thirteen people in the meeting room, not counting the clerks who were in charge of taking notes. From the various luxurious decorations in the meeting room and the lack of any modern facilities, it can be seen that this is a high-end meeting.

Of course it can also be seen from the age of the attendees and their well-fitting attire.

In fact, modern suits and leather shoes are much simpler than those of the aristocrats who were full of decorations, but they all have something in common, that is, some clothes are not worn by people who often work.In other words, the aristocratic class always has a way to separate them from the bottom laborers in the most intuitive way.

Even a tailor-made suit can't be comfortably used for farming in the fields, grazing on the grassland, or screwing in the factory. The reason is very simple.Just like the clothes of luxury brands are not recommended for users to wash, they are not only expensive, but also disposable, which can show their identity.

Real nobles never take care of those extravagant clothes and bags. If they are old, just throw them away.

Anyone with experience can tell at a glance that the people in the meeting room probably have this kind of financial resources.Even if there is no trace of any brand on the clothes.

There was no electronic equipment in the meeting room, so all thirteen people silently looked down at the paper materials that the clerk had sent just now.Those red stamps with confidential and TOP-secret on the cover of the erected material indicate the confidentiality level of the material these people are reading.

After a while, the middle-aged man sitting in the center of the meeting room put down the materials, closed his eyes and stabilized his emotions for a while, and then slowly said: "Okay, everyone, I believe everyone has understood the current situation. Wu Gang from Huaxia The number has been floating above the capital for a whole month and a half, but we can only get some pictures and videos taken from the outside. So far, there has been no news from all the insiders.

Of course, this is also expected.However, through the commission of the Pentagon, a more complete analysis report was obtained.I know these analyst reports are not good news for us.I know that you are used to some things. For example, we used to have the most powerful technology and military power in the world. Externally, we have a complete and powerful protection network. Internally, we also have security arrangements.

But no matter whether you are willing to admit that from the day artificial intelligence appeared, we have already lost, and we have lost very thoroughly. This is the reality.When the Wu Gang was revealed last month, it also indicated that some concepts and ideas had to be changed.When the Wu Gang lifts off, it means that there are more possibilities for the development of civilization in this world.If we compare space to the sea, it means a temporary compromise, which will result in greater room for development.

This is not my decision, but the result of analysis.Of course if any of you have a disagreement, you can bring it up now.We can discuss it again and file it.But no matter what the conclusion is, we must first reach a consensus before we can implement it.This is very important.If we continue to split on this matter, there will be a very funny scene in the near future, and I believe that everyone here does not want to see that scene happen. "

After the voice fell, most of the people glanced at the clerk who was immersed in shorthand, and then remained silent, and no one made a sound.

Probably because the information I read just now was a big blow to everyone. At this time, it is actually very troublesome. Anything I say may be wrong, so it is better to remain silent.

Some decisions everyone knows are absolutely correct in a certain situation, but if they are spoken, they may be confirmed at some point later.If you have not reached a certain position, keeping silent is often the best protection for yourself. Of course, it may also be thinking or hesitating.

But the person sitting at the top obviously didn't want to give these people too much time to brew their emotions. He put one hand on the heavy conference table and began to tap lightly according to a certain rhythm, which was about 5 minutes at most. The clerk had already stopped the pen in his hand, and after waiting for a long time, he spoke again.

"Okay, it seems that no one objected to my opinion, so let's do it, the materials you just saw will be submitted intact, and it will become a programmatic document for our relationship with Huaxia for a long time to come. , Please raise your hand if you agree now."

Soon seven hands were scattered in the conference room, and when there were still some people who were hesitating, the person sitting in the main seat simply announced: "Okay, more than half of the people agree, so it's decided. Thank you all, the meeting is adjourned now."

The meeting ended and the participants left the venue in an orderly manner.Obviously, no one had much desire to talk about the content of this meeting, so no one gathered to discuss when they left.This also includes the person who presides over the meeting.

And as soon as he walked out of the meeting room, he turned away and turned in a different direction, came to the elevator, entered the elevator and pressed the button for the seventh floor.

The meeting room just now was on the sixth floor. I just went up one floor, got out of the elevator, walked back to the old way, and then opened the door and walked into another meeting room.This meeting room is just above the room where he presided over the meeting just now. Not only is the interior layout similar, but even the decoration is similar to the heavy conference table.

But at this time, there were fewer people inside.But there are many familiar faces.

For example, the honorable Mr. Du Pontler, Congressman Neeson Mountbatten from Texas, Oberth Laylow who is already in a high position in NBC, Stephen Schwartz of the Blackstone Group and so on.

Besides them, Mr. Dupont was surrounded by many gray-haired old people, and although many features indicated that their best years were gone, they seemed to be in good spirits.

It seems that there is still a clear gap between the two sides. The older people are mostly in the circle of Dupont, Neeson Mountbatten and Oberth Laylow are a small group, Stephen Schwartz and several of his friends sit in the middle.

After the middle-aged man walked into the room, all eyes naturally focused on him.

"Okay, everyone, the proposal has been passed. It went very smoothly." The middle-aged man gave a result very succinctly.

Obviously this is good news, but everyone in the conference room expressed enough restraint, at least no one was celebrating.However, most of the eyes were focused on Neeson Mountbatten this time. At this moment, the expressive congressman stood up, smiled at everyone, bowed, saluted, and finally straightened his waist. The whole person looks very tall and straight.

"Dear gentlemen, all those who have contributed to this great process will be invited to participate in the launch ceremony of the Wu Gang. It will be a day that will be forever remembered by our history and civilization. Being able to participate in this It will be an honor for us to attend this event, and in the course of this event, this great deal will be done."

Neeson Mountbatten's voice fell, and there was no enthusiastic reaction in the meeting room. On the contrary, it fell into a brief silence.

Maybe everyone was too moved and didn't know what to say for a while.At least that's what Neeson Mountbatten thought.After all, these people in front of him will be his help in the future.His eyes have already surpassed the wealth accumulated by the families of these people for hundreds of years, because under the guidance of God, he has set his sights on the more distant stars and seas.

As long as he can have an interstellar transport ship in the future, coupled with the fanatical believers of the Light God Sect, he may have the resources of several planets.

In order to achieve the unparalleled glory of the Mountbatten family in the future, he has specially learned that there are 120 million stars in the entire solar system.Although 90.00% of them are all kinds of small stars, there are abundant resources on many stars.

As long as they can seize the opportunity, it is enough for the Mountbatten family to complete the original accumulation of becoming a space noble.

And he, Neeson Mountbatten, will become the patriarch of the nobility in the new era, and his statue will be admired by all descendants in the family manor.

The most important thing is that when he accepts the gift of God, he will have enough time to complete this great goal, and just thinking about it can make his heart surge.

This is the best of times...

Of course, not necessarily so for those who listened to the news.After all, most of them actually hate uncontrollable change.

……

Huaxia, a large scientific research base of Yanbei Academy of Space Exploration.

Chen Luo had a very comfortable life these days.

Not only because Cao Zhe, a reporter, is easy to get along with, but also because his authority in the base seems to have temporarily increased.More specifically, he can go to some places that he could not go before.For example, the experimental center on the basement floor of the experimental group building.Although only a part of the area is open to him, this is also a map that he has never been able to open.

In particular, he witnessed an automated assembly line of an N1 robot, which was indeed a shocking scene.

First, a pair of mechanical feet were assembled by rotating back and forth on the mechanical arm, and then they were placed on the assembly line. Countless mechanical arms began to piece together the entire upper body like building blocks, and then the mechanical legs walked down the assembly line with fixed steps, starting a step Walk forward step by step, stay under each mechanical arm for a while, and then watch the torso of the body being assembled, then the head, and finally install the two arms that have been prepared, and an N1 robot is assembled.

Chen Luo took Cao Zhe to film a complete assembly process, which took a total of 5 hours and 23 minutes.

Although the pre-assembly process of many parts is not here, even the final assembly process is full of the beauty of modern mechanical civilization.Chen Luo also heard the words "great" and "incredible" countless times from Cao Zhe beside him.

This made Chen Luo very proud.

This is the card that the base should have.

It's not just the big guy floating in the sky, but also has these digital intelligent automation technologies that currently seem insurmountable.

Although they perfectly missed the time for lunch in order to film the complete assembly process of the N1 robot, Chen Luo felt it was worth it. The hunger was almost negligible compared to the spiritual satisfaction, after all, the latter was priceless.

It wasn't until the newly produced N1 robot left by itself to undergo quality control testing that Chen Luo took Cao Zhe and the photographer away from the underground robot assembly line.

As soon as he came to the ground, Chen Luo was about to show the image of a hospitable Chinese, but was stopped by someone.

"Chen Luo, Director Zhuo told you to go to his office now."

Director Zhuo is naturally Zhuo Mingqian.

In fact, to be honest, the administrative system of the base is very non-existent. Most of the time, it does some service work for the scientists in the base, but Zhuo Mingqian is an exception, and it is the only exception. Even if you really want to talk about the administrative sequence, he doesn't even rank in the top three.

The reason is also very simple. He is the only director in the base's administrative sequence system who can provide suggestions for the distribution of contribution points.

However, contribution points are the most valued by everyone in the base.

Even the money that everyone likes is less important here than the contribution point.This also makes Zhuo Mingqian's position here become detached.Although he is only a deputy director, his words are more useful than a serious leader.

Even apart from Ning Zi, the fearless Chen Luo immediately greeted Cao Zhe who was beside him after hearing the news, and hurried towards the No. [-] laboratory building.In fact, he is not very familiar with Director Zhuo, but according to legend, this Director Zhuo belongs to the type of smiling tiger, very sinister.

Although he is always smiling on the bright side, he doesn't hesitate at all when he strikes ruthlessly.

Many great scientists have fallen under his hands, and the complaints against Director Zhuo have always been the most, but he can stay in the position of director well, which is enough to explain many things.So although Chen Luo theoretically said that he would be Ning Zi's student in the future, he could not care much about Zhuo Mingqian, but after all, this matter has not been officially confirmed.

So Chen Luo really didn't dare to offend the real deputy director of the base at this time. What if this guy slandered Dean Ning and replaced him?They are all smart people and will not make mistakes in the direction of such details.

Coming to Zhuo Mingqian's office, Chen Luo knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

"Director Zhuo, I'm here."

"Oh, Chen Luo, sit down, sit down, what do you want to drink?"

"Uh... do you have a Coke?"

"Haha, I know you young people like to drink this kind of thing, you have it, you have it."

Well, Chen Luo is almost sure, Director Zhuo is really smiling.

Because soon, the director had handed Chen Luo a fresh bottle of Coke, which was still ice cold.

"Chen Luo, you probably don't know yet. You are the first student we Academician Ning basically confirmed. Do you know what this means?"

"Er...what does it mean?" Chen Luo looked at Zhuo Mingqian blankly, he really didn't know what it meant.

"In ancient times, you would be the senior brother of Academician Ning in the future! You have to bear all the responsibilities, understand?" Zhuo Mingqian said earnestly.

A mountain of pressure fell on Chen Luo in an instant. Chen Luo, who was holding a Coke, subconsciously asked, "Director Zhuo, what do you mean?"

Chapter 235 Big brother's important task

Chen Luo suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

Really, looking at Director Zhuo's meaningful smile at this time, Chen Luo really wanted to say that he was just a child, not a big brother.But thinking of those comments about Director Zhuo, Chen Luo could only suppress his anxiety, and asked seriously, "What do you mean?"

"Haha, Chen Luo, you don't need to be so stressed. It's actually a very simple task. You can even understand that I gave you this job just to flatter Academician Ning. Really, it's mainly other people, I think. I am not qualified to complete this task."

Zhuo Mingqian patted Chen Luo on the shoulder to encourage, then walked back to his desk and sat down, picked up the teacup on the desk, took a sip of tea and said: "Actually, this matter is very simple. You know that on the day when the Wu Gang was officially launched into space, the base arranged a grand ceremony.

On that day, the base will invite many domestic and foreign celebrities to watch the ceremony.I don't need to tell you in detail, but you should know who the brightest star of this ceremony will be.Yes, it is your advisor—Academician Ning.At present, I can be sure that many people still come with a purpose.They will do whatever they can to hope to meet Academician Ning.

Your task is actually very simple, that is, to set up a barrier in the middle.To put it simply, all foreign friends who want to see Ning Zi must pass your test first.You nodded before they could meet Academician Ning.Can you understand the meaning of this? "

Chen Luo shook his head blankly.

He really didn't understand the meaning of it.At present, the only thing he can think of is for the safety of Academician Ning, so let him screen out those with malicious intentions first?But Chen Luo knew very well that he did not have the ability to complete this task well.

With his shallow social experience, it is indeed too difficult to tell who is malicious, and it is even more unnecessary.Because Chen Luo knew very well that there must be extremely professional people to check the identities of those people before he wanted to see his tutor. He even had no doubt that when these people really wanted to meet Director Ning, the security personnel around Director Ning would definitely think more about it. Be more thoughtful about yourself.

Obviously, Zhuo Mingqian was not surprised by Chen Luo's performance at this time, and laughed loudly: "Haha, it's not what you think, Chen Luo. In fact, your task is very simple, treat yourself as a threshold, if they want to cross this threshold Naturally, they are willing to pay a certain price. No matter how much they pay, you just accept it.

Of course it won't make your efforts in vain.No matter how much you can receive, [-]% of it will be directly allocated to you as start-up project funds when you can have your own project in the future.So you should understand, right? "
