Chapter 62 Basic Problems That Are Difficult to Solve

The town hall of May City, also known as the mayor's hall, is located in the same location as the Supreme Council of April City, but its architectural style has a more technological feel compared to the solemn and serious style of April City.

Soft light was emitting from the tall dome, illuminating everyone evenly, and the arc-shaped seats looked similar to those of the Supreme Council, except that the number of seats had increased by more than 300 and were densely packed in five circles. Each person's position was equipped with a corresponding virtual screen to display real-time data and voting.

As for the stage in the center, which is also the brightest place in the entire venue, it is the venue of the main person in charge of this event, Yuri Amalfi, member of the National Defense Committee and mayor of May City.

As a versatile person in all fields of engineering and the undisputed number one in the entire May City, he was elected mayor by the citizens of May City based on his achievements.

There is no need to worry about security here as preparations begin three months in advance every year. A large number of police and military forces are deployed, and their security measures are even comparable to those of the Supreme Council.

After all, if it were to get bombed once, the industrial technology level within the entire PLANT would regress by more than ten years.

"Mayor May"

Looking at the name on the virtual business card in the center, He Kui, who was walking with Su Lei, sighed.

"First time meeting you, right? But Mr. Amalfi is a nice guy so don't be nervous."

This person will be going on stage to receive an award soon, so he must be nervous. Thinking of this, Su Lei comforted him.

".Um."

But unlike what Su Lei thought, He Kui was just talking to himself and trying his best to recall the plot.

Of course he still remembered Amalfi. After all, Nicol's death was a major event that directly led to everything that happened later.

Nicol was cut by Kira with a knife, and if he went up, the knife would probably cut him.

No, a knife can even cut a tiger, right? That means it is a Vulcan cannon?
"So Mr. Amalfi is a good man!"

"it is good."

He Kui collected his thoughts, shrugged and continued asking.

"Where is the director of the asteroid mineral mining research group you mentioned earlier?"

"The one with gray hair in the second row, Shaffer Daly"

"That's him."

Vaguely, He Kui seemed to have seen the other party's name in a previous paper related to beam mining.

Judging from his age, he should be a first-generation adjuster of the same generation as several mayors.

"The meeting is about to start. Let's talk after it's over."

"it is good."

As everyone took their seats on time, the dome in the sky dimmed, and the light slowly focused on Yuri Amalfi, who came in last.

Soon he walked to the center of the podium.

"Dear experts, scholars, and comrades from PLANT, welcome to the fifth session of the Joint Council of the Five Design Bureaus. I, Yuri Amafi, am honored as the representative of May City to have the opportunity to discuss cutting-edge scientific fields with you again and witness the achievements we have made this year with the directors of each group."

A warm applause rang out throughout the venue, and the subsequent agenda was slowly advanced under the guidance of Yuri Amafi.

after an hour
"Next, we would also like to thank Director He and Director Hanifs of the Miniaturized Beam Weapons Research Group for their contributions. Director He, do you have any stories or insights behind this honor that you can share with us?"

After seeing Amalfi putting on the First-Class Future Medal for him, He Kui put on a polite smile and took a step forward. Standing in the center, facing the three hundred or so people in front of him, he felt a little timid, but was also filled with a sense of heroism.

“Thank you for your recognition of our work. I am very honored to receive this award. On this road of exploration, I cannot do without the support and help of the team, and of course, the cultivation of Heilan Design Bureau. I am willing to continue to work hard and turn this honor into motivation to move forward and create a better PLANT!”

At this time, the directors in the audience had all kinds of looks, some were envious, some were fawning, some were jealous, and some were indifferent.

Directors are divided into different groups based on the importance of their projects and the funding they receive.

He Kui's project itself is the key research object of ZAFT in the entire design bureau. He does not have to run around for funds or rush around for a little success. Most directors would be envious of him.

Of course, there are also many projects whose importance is comparable to or even exceeds that of the beam weapon group, but those people just look indifferent.

He Kui came down amid applause from all sides.

The highlight on his body disappeared and he turned back into an ordinary person.

But the current highlight does not belong to him.

"Not bad? How long did it take you to come up with this idea?" Su Lei teased as He Kui just returned to his seat.

"I searched online."

"I knew it~"

The rest of the meeting was just some discussions about where future technology should develop. Of course, some research groups tried their best to promote their own research in order to get more funding, but He Kui didn't need that. Even if their light beam group had not been successful in their research before, they had sufficient funding. If he was not afraid of being arrested like the previous person, he would have become a multi-millionaire in minutes.

"This is He Kui, Director He, whom I told you about before."

In a small room outside the conference room, Su Lei introduced the two people.

"Hello, Director He, are you looking for me this time?"

Shaffer Daly from the asteroid mining research team asked curiously.

"I want to discuss with you the impact of beam miniaturization on asteroid mining."

".We actually held an internal meeting on this topic not long ago. However, the beam weapon is still in the military trial stage and cannot be delivered to us so quickly. The specific trial and error work cannot be started. And, if I may be frank, your beam may not significantly increase the speed of asteroid mining."

"Please continue."

He Kui asked, acting like a good student.

"When mining for resource extraction, Director He's beam can certainly be used as a cutting tool, but if there is no breakthrough in resource processing and refining technology, the final result will be nothing more than a pile of raw materials."

"I understand, thank you."

"It's okay, feel free to contact me if you have any questions."

The other party is a rising star in the Heilan Design Bureau. Although Schaeffer Daly is also the director, his status in the eyes of the National Defense Committee may not be as high as that of the other party.

So at this moment, his face was not as serious as it was at the beginning of the meeting, but instead he showed a warm smile of an elder.

"must."

After the two finished talking, they clasped their hands tightly before saying goodbye to each other and leaving.

"Have you finished chatting?"

"Ah."

"How about it?"

"not too good."

The fundamental problem has not been resolved.

"After all, our focus has been on military equipment recently, and we really can't spare much funding for mining research."

Su Lei said this while patting He Kui's head lightly with her jade hand.

"There's always a chance."

“Well, I have another question.”

"what?"

Su Lei tilted her head slightly, and the upturned corners of her small mouth gave people a gentle feeling.

"how old are you?"

Although Su Lei looks like a loli, he can't be a lolita complex.

"He Kui! What do you mean!"

Before Su Lei could stand on tiptoe and grab He Kui by the collar to question him, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Director He in there?"

The voice outside the door was Yuri Amalfi.
