I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

Chapter 353 Don't get me wrong! This is just to resist aliens!
He sighed helplessly, "I have to report to the higher-ups, so tell me what you think first."

"I think if you can decide everything, then you should give this interstellar battleship to us for Su Chen and me."

The corner of Rawls' mouth twitched and he shook his head gently.

"I think we should still give the interstellar battleship to us."

"Why?" Luo Zhiguo asked with a smile.

Rawls said, "Didn't you just say that? You have no say over the base's affairs."

"I am the opposite of you. I can decide everything in the base."

“So it should be given to me.”

"I still don't understand." Luo Zhiguo looked at him and said.

Rawls said: "If the interstellar battleship is given to you, we will have no chance to study it, and the higher-ups will definitely not agree."

"But if you give it to me, I can let you continue to study interstellar battleships, and there will be no interference from anyone at any time and anywhere."

"This is the difference between me and your base.+
Luo Zhiguo was suddenly speechless. He understood what Rawls meant, and what he said made a lot of sense.

While he was thinking deeply, Rawls continued, "Is this interstellar battleship important to you?"

"It shouldn't be important. With Su Chen here, you can research many high-tech weapons even without this star-level battleship."

“But it’s different for us.”

Luo Zhiguo's mouth moved, but he didn't speak.

It is precisely because this interstellar battleship is too important to them that it cannot be handed over to them easily.

If it is something ordinary, there is no need to worry about it.

Seeing that Luo Zhiguo still had no intention of giving in, Rawls suddenly said, "Why don't we invite Su Chen to come and discuss it with him?"

Luo Zhiguo frowned and said, "Su Chen is not willing to participate in this kind of thing. I think it's better not to look for him."

Although he said this, he was still a little worried that Su Chen would support Rawls.

Based on his understanding of Su Chen, Su Chen should not care about this interstellar battleship.

So he doesn't particularly care who it is given to.

Coupled with Su Chen's confidence and abilities, he would probably not mind handing over the interstellar battleship to Rawls.

If Rawls begs Su Chen again with tears in his eyes, Su Chen will definitely soften his heart.

Rawls pursed his lips and drank his tea, with a gleam in his eyes.

Suddenly, he put down his teacup and said with a smile: "How about this, we will hand over the interstellar battleship to you, but you have to sign a contract."

"The content of this contract is that we have the right to inspect this interstellar battleship at any time and study it at any time. If you can agree to this condition, we can make concessions."

The corner of Luo Zhiguo's mouth twitched involuntarily, and he secretly admired Rawls's shrewdness.

Even if the interstellar battleship was handed over to them, they still did not forget to take advantage of it.

If we really do as he asks, it would be equivalent to handing the interstellar battleship to him.

Since he owns the interstellar battleship, he can study it at any time. What's the difference between this and giving it to him?

Seeing that Luo Zhiguo remained silent, Rawls said aggressively: "Luo Zhiguo, are you being a little bit unkind?"

"I've proposed two plans to you, and you're not willing to agree to either one. What do you mean?"

"You must take the interstellar battleship for yourself. Don't forget that we dug it out. If you really think these two plans are inappropriate, I have one last plan."

"If you still don't agree with this plan, then we won't have any other options."

Luo Zhiguo smiled bitterly and asked, "What is your last method?"

Rawls said, "Let's stick to our previous approach. Didn't we hold a meeting to study this? In the end, we chose to cooperate."

"But there was another proposal at the time, which was to divide the entire area into two places. Now I think we can use this plan."

"We can divide the interstellar battleships into two batches, and each person gets half, so that everyone doesn't have to worry about it."

Luo Zhiguo looked at him in astonishment, knowing that he was speaking in anger.

If a starship is split into two, it will lose its value.

Just when he was frowning, Rawls increased his efforts.

"I don't think you can make the decision, so go back and discuss it with others."

"Let me know when there are results."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out, ordering them to leave.

Luo Zhiguo sat on the chair alone, not getting up for a long time.

With a slight sigh, he left the base silently and went to Su Chen's place.

Su Chen was doing research with Professor Wang and had no time to see him.

It was not until dinner time that Su Chen had time to see him. Seeing Luo Zhiguo looking worried, Su Chen asked him what had happened, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

He really hates to be bothered by things, but there are always some things he needs to deal with.

Luo Zhiguo drank a sip of water helplessly, curled his lips and said, "What else could it be? It's about the interstellar battleship."

"Is it about distribution issues?" Su Chen asked.

Luo Zhiguo nodded.

Seeing that Su Chen didn't care at all, Luo Zhiguo asked: "Do you think we should give this interstellar battleship to Rawls and the others? After all, there is no use for us to stay here."

Su Chen smiled and said, "How can it be useless for us to stay? Their worries are not unreasonable. If it is really useless for us to stay, they will definitely give it to us."

"It is precisely because it is useful to us that they hold on to it tightly."

Su Chen's words woke Luo Zhiguo up from his dream.

He rubbed his cheeks vigorously and said, "From what you said, they will never let go."

Su Chen hummed and buried his head in reading.

Luo Zhiguo sat down next to him and nudged him lightly with his elbow. "Don't look at it. Give me a solution. What should we do about this matter?" Su Chen looked at Luo Zhiguo unexpectedly and said with a smile, "Shouldn't you ask your superiors first? Can you make the decision on this matter?"

The same words echoed in Luo Zhiguo's ears again, and he glared at Su Chen angrily.

"Why are you saying the same thing as Rawls? Don't you think I have any say at all?"

Su Chen smiled bitterly and said, "It's not what I think, but you really don't have any decision-making power in this matter. It's useless for you to ask me, because we can't decide this matter at all."

"You should ask your superiors for their opinions and follow their advice. You won't be held responsible if anything goes wrong."

Luo Zhiguo nodded helplessly. After returning to the base, he contacted the senior management and asked for their opinions.

The final opinion given by the top management was to agree to Rawls' second plan.

The interstellar battleship must be kept by them, but Rawls and his team can be given unlimited research rights. They can conduct research on the interstellar battleship at any time, but they cannot take the interstellar battleship away.

Luo Zhiguo did not expect that the top management would adopt the second option. He was very surprised, but he was no longer as depressed as before. This option was good for both parties, and Rolls should not object anymore.

After meeting Rawls again, Luo Zhiguo had already come with the contract.

When Rawls saw the contract in his hand, he knew his decision. He signed the contract with a smile, and then the matter was settled.

When Rawls told this matter to other experts, except for a few experts who objected, everyone else thought it was a good idea.

He could obtain the research rights to the interstellar battleship without falling out with Su Chen and the others.

Some experts also think that this is a compromise.

The expert who proposed the idea like Rawls was the most dissatisfied person at the beginning, but as an expert, he did not have much say.

Moreover, he was an expert of low status and could do nothing except complain in his heart.

After this matter was dealt with, the interstellar battleship was sent back to Base No. 3.

Just a few days after returning to the base, Luo Zhiguo came under considerable pressure.

Because Base No. 1 also wanted to study this interstellar battleship, it specially sent an invitation to Luo Zhiguo.

Although Luo Zhiguo refused directly, the other party continued to put pressure on him and took out various things to tempt him.

Although Luo Zhiguo could resist the temptation, the 24-hour non-stop phone bombardment still made him extremely depressed.

On this day, Su Chen and Professor Wang had almost finished their research on synthetic materials. When all the materials were ready, they were ready to start the manufacturing project of the interstellar battleship.

Because Su Chen and Professor Wang belong to different bases, it is impossible for them to work together.

They will each return to their bases and build interstellar battleships according to their own ideas.

Professor Wang actually prefers to follow Su Chen, because he does not have the confidence to build an interstellar battleship by himself, so he hopes to learn from Su Chen first, see how Su Chen makes an interstellar battleship, and then go back to make it.

In this way, many problems can be easily solved.

However, he also knew that building an interstellar battleship was a very important matter, and it was absolutely impossible to allow outsiders to assist, let alone allow outsiders to take the information away.

He thought about it in his heart but didn't say it out loud. In the end, he parted ways with Su Chen and returned to their respective bases.

After Su Chen returned to the base, he ordered people to start building an interstellar battleship.

Because they have already constructed several interstellar battleships, they have certain technical and knowledge reserves regarding the construction of interstellar battleships.

In addition, this was an imitation manufacturing, so the manufacturing speed of this interstellar battleship was very fast and the technical difficulty was not very high.

Plus, Su Chen was there to give guidance.

It took half a month and the hull of the starship was completed.

Next is the internal structure, which is more complicated and takes longer.

While they were constructing the interior of the starship, Rawls also began his research.

Their research progress is very slow. They are still in the process of manufacturing the shell, and some materials are not yet ready.

Rawls and Professor Wang were very distressed. When they heard that Su Chen was basically about to complete the task, they became even more worried. It was really frustrating to compare oneself with others. Why couldn't they be like Su Chen and his team?

Some experts began to complain, and some said that Su Chen and his team had secretly kept the research technology, which was why they were able to surpass them.

Only a few experts are expressing this opinion, while most experts have chosen to remain silent.

Because everyone knows very well that the reason why Su Chen and his team were able to develop interstellar battleships faster is entirely because their abilities are stronger than their own.

Su Chen alone is not something they can compare to, not to mention that the resources at his base are much better than theirs.

There are many more experts than them, and their experts have far more experience than themselves, so this phenomenon occurs.

Most experts have a clear self-awareness and know that they lack ability, but there are always some people who think they are very good and think that it is not their own fault, but that they are being targeted by others.

On this day, Professor Wang and Rawls sat together and chatted about the construction of interstellar battleships.

Rawls meant to let Professor Wang visit Su Chen and his team's interstellar battleship to gain some inspiration and knowledge.

Professor Wang shook his head and said that if he went there, they might not see him. He pushed the problem directly onto Rawls and asked Rawls to go to the base opposite to take a look at their research results.

Rawls didn't want to go either, because he felt that he owed Su Chen and the others too much and didn't want to continue owing them like this.

The two of them looked at each other, seemed to know each other's thoughts, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Rawls sighed and looked at the starry sky in the distance.

He said to himself: "When can we help them instead of bothering them every day?"

Professor Wang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid I won't have a chance in this lifetime. I'm already old, and Su Chen is in his prime and full of energy. He will achieve more and more in the future, and he will understand more and more, but I'm afraid I won't make any progress."

"In fact, we can also think of other ways to help them."

Rawls said with a smile.

Professor Wang said: "I'm afraid there is no other way. They are better than us in every way. What can we do? Unless aliens invade, maybe we can help them."

Speaking of alien invasions, Rawls couldn't help but become curious.

"You are an expert. When and where do you think the aliens will attack us?"

Professor Wang shook his head.

He didn't dare to talk nonsense about this matter, and he didn't have much research on this aspect. He was not an expert in this field, but he had talked about this matter with several relevant experts.
