Reinforcement Panel: Tech Wars

Chapter 70 Take the stage!

Starting from yesterday, all scientific researchers at the Institute of Underwater Equipment have cancelled their vacations and everyone must be on duty.

The institute’s core task this year is to complete the upgrade and improvement of a conventional-powered submarine.

This conventional-powered submarine is numbered 039C and was just announced to the public in October last year.

The current research and development goal of the Underwater Equipment Research Institute is to improve the efficiency of the 039C power module and reduce the noise when the submarine is sailing.

For the Dongda submarine business that has developed from scratch, the power equipped on the 039C is already the most advanced submarine power system in the country.

To continue the upgrade, it will undoubtedly be an arduous project that is destined to be slow for the researchers at the Institute of Underwater Equipment.

But no one had ever thought that happiness would come to Zhao Fuqing so unexpectedly like a magpie outside the window in the early morning.

At the Underwater Equipment Research Institute, security has been increased by several levels since yesterday.

All personnel returning to work must undergo strict security checks. Zhao Fuqing's purpose in doing this is to avoid any possibility of leaks.

The night before, when he and Zheng Mingyi reported the Red Star and the two military technologies to the top military officials, the highest military level of Dongda responded quickly.

The old man Zheng Mingyi was escorted overnight to a location that Zhao Fuqing was not aware of to make a report.

Considering the current urgent need for a new generation of submarine equipment, Zhao Fuqing was not taken away after making a report on the spot at the institute.

"Put all your efforts into confirming the authenticity of the technology in the shortest possible time!"

"If the technology is real and reliable, the upper echelons will fully support the implementation of magnetohydrodynamic propulsion technology!"

Looking at the busy researchers in the laboratory, Zhao Fuqing still can't forget the serious face of the lieutenant general yesterday morning.

With the technology in hand, the burden on him and the Underwater Equipment Research Institute is as heavy as a rock!
"Digital Simulation Group, how is the progress of establishing the supercomputing test model?"

He just didn't know how the higher-ups were going to deal with Hong Xing, and he didn't want any misunderstandings between the two sides.

Such a genius who is like the Son of God must not have any accidents.

He had no idea what was happening to that old guy Zheng Mingyi now.

Put aside the distracting thoughts in your mind. Someone is taking care of these things, and his responsibilities are at hand.

Surrounded by mountains, in a sanatorium, when everyone at the Underwater Equipment Research Institute was mobilized to do technical verification, Zheng Mingyi sat alone on the balcony, staring at the lake in front of him in a daze.

He was taken here by a military vehicle early yesterday morning. Over the past day or so, several waves of people have come to communicate with him, or to be more precise, to interrogate him.

Zheng Mingyi was already familiar with the rules and regulations of the military system and would not resist them.

He told everything honestly and took the initiative to explain all his contacts with Red Star, including all the information he learned about Red Star.

It was not until this morning that the investigation of Zheng Mingyi finally ended.

But this does not mean that he can leave here. Before completing the investigation of Red Star’s identity and all technical information from Red Star, Zheng Mingyi can only stay here.

“Autonomous driving, lithium crystal cluster reduction, magnetohydrodynamic propulsion, high-energy laser generator”

Thinking of these cutting-edge technologies from Red Star, Zheng Mingyi felt his scalp tingling.

In the past, in his understanding, these technologies only belonged to the future, and it would take many years for humans to develop any of them.

"Small nuclear reactor. Thorium-based, or molten salt reactor."

"No matter how you look at it, this technology is nuclear energy technology tailor-made for Dongda."

The more I thought about Zheng Mingyi, the more I felt that the name Red Star was full of mystery. This name seemed to be surrounded by fog, making it impossible to imagine the other person's age and background.

"From the future?"

Feeling puzzled, Zheng Mingyi suddenly recalled a setting from a science fiction work.

If he has to find an explanation now, he can only say that Hongxing comes from the future Tokyo University.

Otherwise, he really couldn't explain why Red Star could come up with so many technological technologies that met the urgent needs of the current science and technology community at East China University of Technology.

Dangdang~

His thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door, and Zheng Mingyi turned to look at the door.

"Come in."

A middle-aged man in a black suit walked in.

"Hello, Academician Zheng, I am Huang Zhengliang from Dongda Nuclear Energy."

Zheng Mingyi put down his teacup, stood up, grinned and said:
"Hey, did you hear the news?"

"I have to say, you got here pretty fast."

Huang Zhengliang nodded, Zheng Mingyi was right.

Someone informed him yesterday that he must rush to this military sanatorium this morning, but no reason was given during the call.

He had no choice but to put down his work and rushed to the mountain area. He had just come out of the office of the military chief. When he heard the ranking of the small thorium-based molten salt reactor technology from the military chief, he was surprised.

Dongda Nuclear Energy has been researching this fourth-generation reactor technology and just completed the grid-connected power generation of the test reactor last year.

Dongda’s nuclear energy technology is still a long way from being fully mature, and this is the direction they are working towards.

He was incredulous when he heard that the technology might have already been developed and might now be in someone's hands.

The objective reality is that whether he believes it or not cannot change the attitude of the military. Then Huang Zhengliang was taken to the room where Zheng Mingyi was temporarily staying.

"Academician Zheng, how is that possible?"

"I don't believe that any team in the world can surpass Dongda Nuclear Energy in the development of thorium-based molten salt reactor technology!"

Zheng Mingyi smiled and asked the other party to sit down, then took a bottle of water from the table next to him and handed it to Huang Zhengliang.

"Calm down, Mr. Huang."

"I've seen your reaction in another old scientific researcher before."

"This matter is indeed difficult to infer with common sense."

Seeing Huang Zhengliang's confusion, Zheng Mingyi sighed with a thoughtful look on his face:
"When you thought it was impossible, the autonomous driving technology of private enterprises exploded."

"When you think it's impossible, BYD's lithium battery technology explodes."

"Also, when you and I were puzzled and couldn't figure it out, the Underwater Equipment Research Institute entered an emergency research and development state."

"There is also an old guy you don't know who has scrapped the military weapons project that has been researched for many years and started over again."

Seeing Huang Zhengliang's increasingly shocked expression, Zheng Mingyi sighed and continued:

"The military should have told you that these things that you and I thought were impossible all came from one person, a person whose true identity we haven't figured out yet."

"Academician, are the changes you mentioned true?"

“Is there really someone who releases so much technology?”

"Although I don't know what technologies you are talking about, is there really such a person?"

"Are you sure you're not kidding me?!"

Huang Zhengliang held the mineral water bottle in his hand in mid-air. In his opinion, the things Zheng Mingyi said were simply impossible to happen.

Things like technological explosions exist only in fantasy.

Every step in scientific research cannot be achieved without long-term investment!

Zheng Mingyi shook his head and glanced at the emerald green lake in the distance outside the balcony.

“These are things that have already happened.”

"The reason why you are sitting here now is to receive a new technology that surpasses the research and development progress of Dongda Nuclear Energy."

Shocked inside, Huang Zhengliang unconsciously tensed the muscles in his right hand holding the water bottle, squeezing the bottle and causing water to overflow from the mouth of the bottle and soak his suit on his chest.

At the beach, Wei Jiang parked the Wuling in a parking lot and walked to the beach.

After lying to his father and aunt for a long time, saying that he was going to meet up with local classmates for two days, Wei Jiang left his aunt's house in the evening.

Standing on the shore and making sure that there was no one around, Wei Jiang took a running start and jumped into the sea.

With a bang, the whole person stood on the sea.

The manta ray submersible held his feet steadily, opened the cockpit door, and Wei Jiang sat in the cabin nimbly.

The hatch closed and a red panel floated in front of me.

[Enhanced mission: 4937km/5000km]

Wei Jiang took out a mobile phone from his pocket and opened a sea chart.

In the center of the sea, several dotted lines outline a rectangular area.

The rectangular area is labeled with text to indicate the area designated for the Rim of the Ocean Exercise.

Wei Jiang clicked the surround screen of the manta ray cockpit with his finger to set the destination sea area, his eyes full of excitement.

"Attack!"
