The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 494: Type 01 is too backward, at least Type 02 is needed

Li Mu nodded helplessly and said, "Okay."

Then he asked about the diplomatic corps abroad.

Then we learned that a giant mushroom was created in Xia Kingdom and the army of Emperor M was repelled in the southern waters.

Many countries have shown goodwill to them.

Although it is not possible to establish diplomatic relations immediately.

But there is more or less a desire in this regard.

"And you don't know about Big Brother's situation. When he found out that Emperor M had brought an aircraft carrier to our doorstep, he was very proud and even wanted to renegotiate terms with us." Guo Mo said finally.

Hear the news.

Li Mu was not surprised.

After all, there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests.

Get along in different places.

They will make the same choice, but at most they will not set the conditions too harshly.

But since they have "turned the tide", Big Brother has to pay some price this time.

Thinking of this, he asked:

"By the way, are there any scientists from Emperor M who want to come and participate in the Star Awards?"

"There are plenty, but they were all transferred to other countries and sneaked in in the name of other countries' delegations." Guo Mole said.

As the greatest M emperor in the world, it is certainly impossible for him to admit that Xia’s technology surpasses theirs.

But I really want to learn this technology.

Then they can only cover up their mistakes and sneak into the delegations of other countries.

Li Mu smiled and said:

"That way, it will be much easier."

"Big Brother wants to renegotiate, then let's do as they wish."

"But this time the initiative is in our hands, and the conditions must not be the same as last time."

Emperor M joined in.

I don’t know whether other countries are in a hurry or not.

Anyway, Big Brother must be anxious.

It was originally a unique technology.

As a result, now their mortal enemy has come to interfere, which is absolutely unacceptable to them.

"Then I will go back and send a questionnaire to each research institute to see what other equipment they want. Just fill it out!" Guo Mo said, rubbing his hands.

Li Mu reminded:
"You can't ask for everything, just the key equipment will do."

"I suggest taking this opportunity to talk to them about expanding the scope of foreign trade."

"At present, our foreign trade is still mostly agricultural and sideline products, and there is only one game, which is obviously not enough."

Although Big Brother resumed foreign trade with them.

But the range has been stuck.

But this is not difficult to understand.

After all, the semiconductor televisions and semiconductor radios sold by Xiaguo are really of great value for money.

If they are really allowed to sell it, it will definitely impact their domestic markets.

Even games were something Big Brother didn't want originally.

If Alexei had not stayed in the game development center and learned a lot, the game would not have entered Big Brother's market so smoothly.

"In this way, the interests of many of them will be damaged. Can you agree to this?" Guo Mo hesitated.

He could see what Li Mu was planning.

They are just agricultural and sideline products, there is not much profit at all.

If the semiconductor industry can be sold, we will definitely be able to take over Big Brother's high-end electronic equipment market.

Even if the annual profit is not as good as that of the OM market, it should still be tens of millions of dollars.

Li Mu smiled and said:

"Who told them to add insult to injury?"

"It's OK if you don't want to. We can just turn around and talk to other countries."

"I guarantee that Emperor M will come here when he smells the scent."

His words made Guo Mo nod repeatedly, with a smile on his face that never stopped.

……

at the same time.

At the same time Li Mu arrived in Kyoto.

Big Brother's diplomat Yakov once again received orders from the country to contact the Xia Kingdom and find a way to restore relations.

The secret weapon technology that defeated Emperor M was also obtained.

Seeing this, Yakov almost couldn't help but burst into cursing.

Old Ivan happened to be there too.

Seeing his expression, and thinking of the recent news in Xiaguo newspapers, I asked curiously:
"Did Xia Kingdom really drive Emperor M away?"

Although what the newspaper said was very convincing.

But the Xia Kingdom’s navy defeated the M Empire’s aircraft carrier fleet, which sounded like a magical drama.

"It's more like not just driving them away, it's more accurate to say they were scared away. I don't know what technology Xia Country used to allow the submarine to quietly approach the aircraft carrier of Emperor M." said Yakov.

Hearing this, Old Ivan couldn't help but take a breath and said with emotion:
"It seems that Xia Country still has a lot of technology hidden from us!"

This technology makes submarines "invisible".

It is simply a powerful weapon against aircraft carriers.

You said you have powerful firepower and advanced equipment?

I ordered a group of submarines to approach and launch a suicide charge. As long as the distance is close enough, it will be almost impossible to defend against them all.

In this way, with only a small cost, they can destroy an expensive aircraft carrier of the M Empire.

It couldn’t be a better deal!

"I would rather they didn't tell us. Now the higher-ups are actually thinking of asking Xia for this technology. Do you think this is possible?" Yakov said helplessly.

Old Ivan also sighed and said:
"We changed our minds at the last minute and wanted to renegotiate terms with Xia Country."

"Now they have shot themselves in the foot."

"Forget about submarine 'stealth' technology. I'm afraid even the original technology may not be preserved."

Hear his words.

Yakov said: "At worst, we can just offer more conditions. The higher-ups should be prepared."

There is no doubt that Xia Guo will be angry.

But they can still recover.

What matters between countries is always interests. As long as they offer a high enough price, they can always achieve cooperation.

After seeing Xia Country’s submarine “stealth” technology.

The upper echelons' trust in Xia's mechanical dogs and space-based projects has greatly increased, and paying a higher price is an acceptable result.

"It's not that simple. You probably don't know yet. These days, many diplomatic delegations from other OM countries have come to Xia's embassies." Old Ivan said.

Yakov was startled and said:
"You mean to say that Xia Country is in contact with Emperor M?"

"What else?" asked Old Ivan.

Among the diplomatic delegation that came, some had established diplomatic relations with Xia State, while others did not.

Many of them are younger brothers on Emperor M's side.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is an expression of goodwill towards the Xia Kingdom.

"I'll go find Qiao Guanghua right away!" Yakov didn't hesitate at all and immediately prepared to go find someone.

If Xia Kingdom really came into contact with Emperor M and learned advanced technology.

Then they will probably completely lose the qualifications to compete with it for world hegemony in the future.

After all, let’s not talk about mechanical dogs and space-based weapons for now.

The submarine "stealth" technology alone, coupled with the M Empire's powerful aircraft carrier fleet, is enough to render their navy powerless.

Old Ivan quickly stopped him and said, "Wait."

"Is there anything else?" Yakov paused and turned around.

At this moment, he wished he could rush to Qiao Guanghua and sign the agreement immediately.

Even if the above conditions are increased two or three times, it is acceptable.

Otherwise, if Emperor M intercepted him, he would probably have to pack up and prepare to go to Siberia to dig potatoes.

Old Ivan said:

"Going there now will only be more disadvantageous to us."

"It is an indisputable fact that Xia Country has come into contact with Emperor M."

"But I don't think they will completely side with them. After all, we are in the same camp, and it won't be good for them if Emperor M becomes powerful."

I have to say that the saying "Age makes one wiser" is very meaningful.

Old Ivan's analysis quickly made Yakov react.

If Xia Country intends to give the technology to Emperor M, there is no need to let them find out.

"You're right. Then should we keep our troops on hold for now?" Yakov walked back and said.

There were no clear instructions from the country, just asking him to reach a cooperation with Xia State as soon as possible.

But looking at the current situation, Xia Guo probably won't make a decision in the short term.

If he went there now, he would only be asking for trouble, and he might even be severely "humiliated" by Qiao Guanghua.

Old Ivan said:

"Of course not. So, go to China and ask them to invite more experts and professors to visit us, and show goodwill first."

"I personally still believe that they will not side with Emperor M."

"After all, they are in different camps and have great differences in ideology. Besides, given OM's view of Xia Country, whether it will truly accept it is also a question."

Yakov nodded immediately and said:
"Okay, I'll contact the country right away."

He also thought this was a good idea.

……

The other end.

Patton, the president of the National Academy of Sciences of the M Empire, and Simon and others also came to the territory of Xia Kingdom with the diplomatic delegation after transiting through Ruidian.

The first moment of landing.

Robin came to greet them with Anders, a diplomat from Ruidian, and Alfred, a Nobel Prize examiner.

After arriving at the embassy.

I haven't had time to welcome him yet.

Barton couldn't wait to ask about the situation and said to Robin:

"Do you know what Xiaguo's submarine 'stealth' technology is?"

Robin was surprised when asked, and said:
"Submarine 'stealth' technology, is it true that Xiaguo defeated our aircraft carrier?"

He always thought that the contents in Xiaguo newspapers were all fabricated.

He can even believe in a giant mushroom explosion.

But defeating their aircraft carriers?
What a joke!
"It's true." Barton replied impatiently.

From Robin's reaction, he probably realized that he knew nothing about the matter.

But he couldn't be blamed.

After all, the other party is still very capable. Even when isolated and helpless, they were able to send news of Xia Guo's new breakthroughs in computing technology back to the country.

Thinking of this, he continued:
"What about Xia Country's more powerful computers? Have you found out more?"

"Well, we have determined a rough number through contact with the researchers of the Red Alliance. The computing speed should be above 2000 million times per second." Robin said.

It cannot be found out from Xia Country.

But we can still take action against the Red Alliance.

After all, not every country's officials are as difficult to deal with as those in Xia State.

"2000 million times per second, God!" Patton couldn't help but exclaim.

Behind him, Simon, John and Jay, who were sitting in the conference room, stood up in shock.

Before coming to Xia Kingdom.

They thought they would see more advanced computer technology.

But the computing speed has doubled, which is really shocking.

It took only two years from the Type 100 computer that could process 01 million times per second to the current unknown model computer that could process 2000 million times per second.

This is totally unscientific!
"Is there any way to get one?" Patton asked directly.

Robin shook his head and said:
"It's difficult. Ruidian's diplomats have also discussed it with Xiaguo, but they are only willing to sell the 100-type computer with a computing speed of 01 million times per second."

Not only they are envious of powerful computers, but many OM countries are also tempted by them.

"Type 01 is too backward, we need at least Type 02," Patton said.

They came all the way from the other side of the ocean, even putting aside their pride as M-Engineers, just to learn Xiaguo's computer technology.

If I just bring back the Type 02, my trip would have been in vain.

Robin said:
"But it would be difficult for Xiaguo to sell it to us, after all..."

He didn't say anything.

But the meaning is obvious.

The two sides are in different camps, and there are many difficulties in reaching cooperation.

"It's just a matter of price. As long as Xiaguo is willing to trade, it'll be fine." Patton shook his head.

There are many twists and turns between countries.

But in the final analysis, it all comes down to the word "interest".

As long as they are willing to offer, I believe Xia Guo will be tempted.

"Then I will go discuss with Anders, the diplomat from Ruidian, and ask him to contact Xia Country on our behalf." Robin said immediately.

Hearing this, Barton nodded.

But just as Robin was about to leave, he said again:
"By the way, do you know where the famous consultant Li Mu from Xia Country lives? I will take Professor Simon and the others to visit him later."

"Well, he lives in the special building, so it may not be easy to visit him. I don't recommend you go now." Robin said.

If we go directly to their house, I'm afraid the Xia Kingdom will investigate everything thoroughly.

When the identities of Patton and others are exposed, no one knows what will happen.

It would be terrible if Xia Guo did not have the willingness to cooperate as they expected, but instead turned against them directly.

Barton was somewhat unwilling, but he could only say:
"Okay, then you should contact Xia Guo as soon as possible and find out what they are thinking."

Simon and the other two behind him were also feeling very lost.

I originally thought that I would be able to see Li Mu after arriving in Xia Country, but now it seems that I will have to wait for quite a long time.

"You can't go to his house directly, but he occasionally shows up at the Beijing Institute of Technology. You can try your luck there." Robin thought for a moment and said.

Barton Road:
"Beijing Institute of Technology?"

"Yes, that is Li Mu's alma mater. It is also the location of the game research and development center that has produced many popular games that have swept the OM market." Robin said.

Hearing this, Barton turned his head and looked at Simon and the other two, saying:
"Then how about we go to the Beijing Institute of Technology first?"

"Of course. Even if Li Mu is not here, the game R&D center is still worth a visit." Simon said.

The other two people nodded again and again.

They are also very curious about what kind of place can control the entire OM game market on its own.

From the first "Puzzle Cube" to "Air Wars" which sold over 500 million copies in the first week.

Their local game manufacturers were left with almost no ability to fight back.

"Then let's go!" Patton was also decisive. Seeing the three people nod, he immediately took people to Beijing Institute of Technology.

……

Back to Li Mu.

After a little repair at home.

He couldn't sit still any longer.

The three-day long vacation was simply torture for him.

But Guo Mo's words represent the above meaning.

Even if he goes to the research institute now, the security guard may not let him in.

Instead of boring yourself, it’s better to read at home.

Just when he was watching intently.

There was a knock on the door.

Hearing the sound, he immediately got up and opened the door.

I originally thought it would be Qian Wushi, or Sun Jiadong.

I didn’t expect it to be Guan Jianmin.

"Why is it you?" Li Mu was a little disappointed.

Guan Jianmin was speechless:

"Who else could it be but me? Don't even think about having someone come to your door. Everyone knows that you're on holiday."

In order to prevent Li Mu from being "forced" to conduct research during the holidays.

The relevant scientific researchers were specifically informed and asked to try not to disturb Li Mu's rest unless absolutely necessary.

However, this has not happened so far.

After all, Li Mu’s plan was indeed quite good.

You may encounter difficult problems during the research process, but it is almost impossible not to come up with solutions.

"Then what are you doing here?" Li Mu said unhappily.

If Guan Jianmin hadn't helped him, he would have only had one day off before starting work.

Guan Jianmin said:

"You asked for some scenery photos from Feizhou before, so I took them for you."

As he spoke, he handed a thick bag of envelopes to Li Mu.

But Guan Jianmin seemed a little worried, and said:
"If you want to relax, you don't have to go to Feizhou. The beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland are also very magnificent."

Li Mu suddenly asked for Feizhou's photo, which still showed some worry.

"Don't worry, I just took it to take a look." Li Mu waved his hand without further explanation.

Explanation is to cover.

One lie requires countless lies to cover it up.

Rather than making things worse, it is better to just cover it up lightly.

Guan Jianmin said:

"Okay, I'll go down first. Call me if you need anything."

He also thought it was no big deal.

Take Li Mu's work enthusiasm for example.

Traveling to Feizhou?
This is absolutely impossible to happen.

……

Send Guan Jianmin away.

Close the door.

Li Mu was planning to figure out how to send photos to Ask.

Suddenly, a "ding~" message alert sound rang in my mind.

Ask: "Lee, you haven't come back yet?"

"It's almost done. Let me show you the picture I took." Li Mu said quickly.

Then, he clicked on the "+" sign on the chat page.

Pause on the video call for a second.

Then he clicked on the small film directly.

The next moment, a photo library was opened, containing all the photos in his hands.

Seeing this scene, Li Mu was slightly surprised.

You uploaded it yourself?
"What's the principle here? Can I upload the photos I want directly?" Li Mu thought to himself.

He immediately found his wedding photo with Wang Ya.

As soon as I thought about it, new photos appeared in the photo library.

"In this case, maybe video call will also..." Li Mu looked at the video call option, and his heart was eager to try it.

If they could talk on the phone, it would undoubtedly greatly dispel Ask's doubts about himself.

However, after much hesitation, he gave up this plan.

Taking risks is one thing.

The main thing is that he said he was in Feizhou, but when I opened the video, I saw that he was not, and I have no idea how to explain it.

Even if Ask is slow.

It's not to the extent that you can't even tell the difference between Feizhou's home decoration style and Xiaguo's home decoration style.

After sending the photo.

Seeing the many sights of Feizhou, Ask was filled with envy and yearning.

However, when Li Muyi asked him to come and play, the latter quickly shook his head.

Chatted for more than ten minutes.

The two ended their chat.

Li Mu turned his attention back to the chat page.

The fact that the photo was successfully sent only made it easier to fool Ask.

In fact, there hasn't been much change for him.

If possible, he would prefer to have a WIFI list search.

Otherwise, every time you look for something, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Even if you use your mind to flip through it, it is an extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming task.

……

The next day, early.

The first day of vacation.

Wash up and finish exercising.

Li Mu then continued his research.

Of course, with Jianmin, the "traitor", following us, it would be impossible to do it openly.

He found a seat in the small garden below the special building, holding a few recent newspapers in his hand.

While pretending to watch, he sorted out the information in his mind about land-based intercontinental D bombs and satellites.

This will be his research subject for quite some time to come.

Deeply thinking.

Suddenly someone came over.

I turned around and saw it was Guan Jianmin.

He asked: "Is something wrong?"

"Director Mao Yishen from the Railway Technology Research Institute is here, and he brought with him Gao Jialin, the student you favor." Guan Jianmin said.

Hearing this, Li Mu stood up first.

Just as he was about to pick someone up, he stopped and turned back and said:

"I'm on vacation now. If they come to me to talk about research, it might not be a good idea."

"Honestly speaking, I think it's even worse since you've been reading the newspaper for almost two hours." Guan Jianmin rolled his eyes.

Li Mu said:
"You don't understand this. I'm reading newspapers to learn about the major events happening in our country."

"Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you."

"I'm going to go meet Director Mao and the others first. If you're interested, you can take a look for yourself."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

I saw that he spoke very seriously.

Guan Jianmin couldn't help but look at the newspaper on the stone table with some suspicion.

……

Here, after talking to the guard.

Li Mu then took Mao Yishen and Gao Jialin back home.

First, I made a cup of tea for them.

However, he slowly listened to them talking about the recent research situation there.

Mao Yishen said:

"The tunnel boring machine is currently progressing smoothly, and we expect to be able to produce a prototype by the middle of this year."

"Other equipment such as rock drills and excavators are making good progress."

"By the way, I also want to thank you for sending Gao Jialin here. He helped us a lot during the research process."

After he finished speaking.

Gao Jialin, who was standing by and heard himself being praised, said embarrassedly:

"I didn't really help much, but I learned a lot from everyone at the Railway Technology Research Institute."

Li Mu smiled and said:

"Don't be modest. Director Mao has spoken up, which means you are doing a good job."

"Work hard and strive to achieve results."

"Once the research is completed, I will go to the school in person to apply for the scholarship for you."
