Chapter 539 As a Talent

Fang Weihai knew a thing or two about this matter. Recently there have been news reports about underground pipeline accidents, in which many people have been injured or even killed.

He took the initiative to ask: "Why don't you first tell us how this incident is related to our military region? Do you want us to send more rescue personnel?"

Such meetings made Fang Weihai feel that he was wasting his time.

Wang Min saw Fang Weihai's unhappy face and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Old Fang, I asked you to come here this time because I have something to ask you. Don't be anxious!"

Among the people present, except Fang Weihai, Wang Min has the longest seniority and the highest official position. Moreover, Fang Weihai and these people in front of him are basically not in the same cooperation category.

Fang Weihai finally gave Wang Min face and didn't say much, but his expression was still not very good.

Wang Min knew Fang Weihai's temper very well. They had a good relationship in private, so naturally there would be no rift between them because of these few words.

At this time, Wang Min turned his gaze to Kong Dawei: "Dawei, please tell me about the difficulties you encountered and where you need help from District Chief Fang."

After receiving the order, Kong Dawei began to explain the current situation.

"We have had a number of life and health safety incidents involving underground workers, so we have been considering how to solve this problem."

As we all know, urban pipelines and other underground operations pose safety hazards. To truly solve this problem, we must come up with some new solutions.

Kong Dawei then turned his gaze to Fang Weihai and said, "We all know that you, Mr. Fang, have a wide network of contacts. Let's see if we can develop some unmanned machines to replace the people working in the underground pipelines."

"So it's about this, why didn't you tell me earlier!" Fang Weihai said seriously, "This is indeed a matter of life and death, we can't take it lightly, I can help you make the contact."

Fang Weihai returned to his office in the Linhai Military Region.

He looked at his watch from time to time, and finally, after checking it for the last time, he picked up the phone and dialed Lin Chen's number.

Lin Chen was in the study room of Building 3 of Zuiwengzhiyi at this time. He was thinking about using existing technology to further upgrade the functions of the mechanical spider.

The phone rang and he picked it up without checking the caller ID.

"Boss Lin, I'm Fang Weihai."

Lin Chen stopped what he was doing and began to concentrate on answering the call.

"What instructions does the leader have? I just got off the plane and you called me. Did you calculate the time correctly?"

Fang Weihai said with a smile: "I did calculate the time accurately. I didn't want to disturb your lunch break, so I waited until this time."

"Then I have to thank you for your understanding. I really didn't get enough rest these days in Walton."

Fang Weihai knew that Lin Chen had been attacked in Walton the day before, so he paid special attention to his rest time.

Now, he has something new to discuss with Lin Chen, which is about the urban pipeline network issue mentioned in the morning meeting.

"Just tell me what instructions you have, boss! As long as it's within my capabilities, I'm happy to help."

Lin Chen realized that since participating in a series of activities such as the robot competition, his sense of national honor has become stronger, and he sincerely hopes to make some contributions to the country with his abilities.

Fang Weihai was satisfied, and then said: "I do have a few questions I would like to ask you now, and see if Boss Lin can give me some help on this matter."

Then, he briefly recounted the contents of the morning meeting, focusing on the survey of the urban pipeline network.

"After all, we have completed the space robot project and the robot competition that just ended. Let's see if we can use robots to replace manual labor to survey the urban pipe network."

"No problem!" Lin Chen answered very straightforwardly.

Fang Weihai smiled when he heard this answer. He was fully confident of everything Lin Chen agreed to, and the final result would even exceed expectations.

"That's great. When is a convenient time for you? I'll call Kong Dawei and we can meet up and discuss this issue in detail!"

Lin Chen knows that urban pipe network survey is not an easy task. Under a city, there is an intricate network of pipes, and every detail needs to be carefully inspected, which is a great challenge for both humans and robots.

He said seriously, "Then let's meet at the factory tomorrow morning! I just happen to be going to the factory today."

"Okay, it's settled!" Fang Weihai responded with satisfaction.

After Fang Weihai hung up the phone, he immediately called Kong Dawei, informed him of the agreed time and place with Lin Chen, and decided to meet with Lin Chen the next day.

The next morning, Lin Chen came to the factory. He hadn't been here for a few days, and the factory was somewhat dusty. He found the cleaning robot he had developed before, gave it an order, and started it working.

At 8:50, three cars stopped outside the factory.

Fang Weihai and Kong Dawei got out of two different cars and walked into Lin Chen's factory together with other soldiers.

Fang Weihai was in a good mood and called out to Lin Chen as soon as he entered the door.

They walked into the office inside the factory together. It was the first time that Kong Dawei met Lin Chen. He had heard that Lin Chen had completed many projects for the country at a young age.

He was still a little confused at the time, but when he actually walked into the factory and saw the various equipment displayed inside, he completely put aside his previous doubts.

In addition to the Mirage fighters, there were even mechas, and other things besides these big guys were dazzling. He even deliberately controlled himself not to look around, so as not to look like a bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Fang Weihai then asked Kong Dawei with a smile: "Minister Kong, how is it? Are you shocked? This is not a military factory, it is just Boss Lin's factory."

"Yes, it is really shocking. I want to walk around and take a look." Kong Dawei responded.

Lin Chen smiled and said to them: "Why don't we wait until we're done talking about this, and then I'll take the two leaders on a tour here?"

Fang Weihai said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we must not forget the main purpose of our visit this time. Let's finish the discussion first and then enjoy it."

Everyone had reached an agreement, and Kong Dawei took out a hard drive.

"This is the current distribution map of the underground pipelines in the entire city. Every place that needs to be inspected is marked. I hope Mr. Lin can take a look at it and understand it clearly before deciding whether to really invest in robot operations."

Lin Chen understood the other party's concerns. The city's underground pipe network was indeed complicated. He directly connected the hard drive to the computer and displayed it on the screen.

The pipeline network map is very complex, with different areas marked with different colors, and the colors also represent the degree of inspection required.

Kong Dawei looked at Lin Chen seriously, hoping to see a hint of embarrassment on his face, as if only in this way could he prove the difficulty of his work.

However, at this time, Lin Chen turned around and smiled at the two of them: "It's very simple, I accept this task."

Fang Weihai knew that this task was a piece of cake for Lin Chen, and it was expected that he agreed to it.

He smiled and said to Lin Chen: "Boss Lin, this job is not easy. It is time-consuming and laborious. Thank you for your hard work."

Kong Dawei was still immersed in the shock just now. In fact, he was full of joy. The problem that had troubled them for many years was about to be solved by Lin Chen. He stood up from his seat excitedly, shook Lin Chen's hand tightly, and said with emotion: "Boss Lin, this time it all depends on you. I never dreamed that there would be such an outstanding talent in the world."

He also looked at Fang Weihai with gratitude and said, "Thanks to you, Mr. Fang, otherwise I would still be in a state of panic and I don't know how much hair I would have lost!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this. Lin Chen accepted the task, but he quickly returned to his businessman's mindset.

“It’s not difficult to make an underground inspection robot, but it takes time to scan underground pipes to build an intelligent inspection system.”

This explanation was simple and easy to understand, and everyone present understood what Lin Chen meant.

Fang Weihai and Kong Dawei naturally understood what was said and nodded in agreement.

Kong Dawei even said: "Everything is done according to Boss Lin's pace and needs. The key is to complete the project successfully."

At this moment, he placed all his hopes on Lin Chen. As long as the problem of the underground pipeline network could be solved, everything else would be easy.

Lin Chen took over the job, and then he said to Kong Dawei: "Chief Fang knows the rules here. After the amount is determined, payment must be made first."

"Of course, I've heard about it before. Everything is done according to your rules."

Lin Chen nodded slightly and said, "I have to scan the entire city's underground pipe network first, and then determine the amount. Moreover, only after the complete scan will it be convenient for us to communicate later."

Kong Dawei became more and more impressed with Lin Chen. He found that Lin Chen's methods were more practical and made people feel that he was more responsible.

He said readily: "No problem, we will keep in touch at any time, just let me know if you have any arrangements."

They had decided on a cooperation intention, and Lin Chen handed over the scanning work of the city's underground pipeline network to the robot.

This type of robot can scan 360 degrees without blind spots, recording and organizing all the details of the pipeline.

Moreover, the route of the pipeline can be completely based on the urban pipeline network map provided by Kong Dawei, which can save a lot of time.

Half an hour later, Kong Dawei sent a message.

"Boss Lin, let's sign a preliminary electronic contract first. This is a contract that guarantees both parties. Take a look at it first."

Soon, Lin Chen saw the signing link. When he opened it, he saw that it contained the rights and obligations regarding confidentiality of pipeline network applications.

Lin Chen signed it promptly, and the electronic contract was finalized.

The contract is very necessary. Lin Chen can understand the process on Kong Dawei's side. After all, the entire city's underground pipeline network is handed over to him. This involves certain risks, and signing the contract is reasonable.

After Kong Dawei received the contract signed by Lin Chen, he waited for Lin Chen's next work.

Lin Chen started preparing the robot to be used the next day in his studio.

The system interface is already open.

"I need ten robots with detection systems. How much?"

"Master, now we have a robot that is very suitable for your needs, and each one only costs 20,000 yuan."

"Twenty thousand? Tell me what functions it has. If it's suitable, then I can use it."

"They have strong obstacle-crossing capabilities and will not fall down due to poor road conditions. They can scan and record 360-degree views and register integrated routes. Other small function options can be viewed by clicking on the detailed page."

Lin Chen was not careless. Although these main functions were what he needed, he still decided to thoroughly understand the performance of the robot.

After taking a comprehensive look, Lin Chen was very satisfied with the robot options provided by the system.

He decisively increased the number to ten and finally settled for 200,000 yuan.

In the end, all the money was paid by Kong Dawei. Lin Chen was generous and in his opinion, twenty thousand for a scanning robot was already a very affordable price.

Lin Chen took the robots out early in the morning. After giving them instructions, they went to different pipeline entrances. There were already staff waiting at the entrances. After the staff opened the entrances, the robots went straight in to scan.

There is a large display in front of Lin Chen, which shows the underground pipeline network of the entire city. There is a red dot at the entrance of the pipeline network, which is the location of the monitoring robot.

At this time, the red dot began to move, and Lin Chen could also see the real-time image information sent back from the robot. He could then go about his own business, because if there was any failure here, there would be information reminders.

Nearing lunchtime, Lin Chen returned to the office and his eyes fell on the independent screen on the desk.

This screen is similar to a common tablet computer and is currently displaying the progress of pipeline inspection.

The area that the robot has inspected is shown as a green line, while the area that has not been inspected is shown as a blue line. The robot is seen moving forward with the green line, occupying most of the area of ​​the city pipeline.

Lin Chen no longer paid attention to the screen. He felt a little hungry at this moment and had to go replenish some energy.

At this moment, Kong Dawei called. As the general manager, he did everything himself.

Lin Chen just sat in the driver's seat and immediately answered the phone.

"Boss Lin!" Kong Dawei said in a very polite tone.

"It's me." Lin Chen responded.

"Is there anything I can help you with? Just ask. We will definitely give you our full support."

"No, everything is going smoothly."

"Oh? So what stage is it at now?"

When Lin Chen heard this, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He knew that Kong Dawei came to "check on him". After all, only he would know the progress best by asking him.

"It's still in the scanning stage! How about this, I'll synchronize the progress here with you, and you can download the software I provide to view the current work progress."

When Kong Dawei heard this, he was very happy, and immediately agreed and started to work on it.

Lin Chen clicked a few times on his phone, then started the car and drove towards the nearest restaurant.

The secretary has arrived in Kong Dawei's office.

"Minister Kong, it's time for lunch!" the secretary reminded.

Kong Dawei was concentrating on his work on the city's pipe network and was staring at the computer screen. When he heard what the secretary said, he just waved his hand.

The secretary knew he was busy, so he stopped talking and stood quietly by the side waiting.
