What does it mean to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam but then go missing?

Chapter 57 I can't build Optimus Prime!

"Hello?"

Ning Shuguo looked at the major general with a completely bewildered expression.

This is a rare guest.

Although there is some cooperation between the school and the military, it is always handled by designated personnel.

It is generally not necessary for the leader to personally take action.

For other similar visits, the war zone will communicate with the school in advance.

This is outrageous! And it's a major general!

Wang Qi noticed Ning Shuguo's unease and quickly explained.

"Principal Ning, it's like this."

"Commander Yang of my war zone has entrusted me to handle two matters at your esteemed school."

"It happened so suddenly, so I came rather hastily. I'm sorry."

Ning Shuguo quickly replied politely, "No, no, I've met Commander Yang a few times, but always during meetings in the capital. I haven't had the chance to have in-depth conversations with him."

Wang Qi, a former soldier, said succinctly: "On behalf of Commander Yang, I extend my greetings to you."

"The first thing I mentioned was that the theater of operations had a new idea, but it was technically difficult to implement."

"Therefore, Commander Yang entrusted me to come to your school to seek your help, preferably to establish a special project team."

Upon hearing this...

Ning Shuguo beamed with joy.

To be honest, Ning Shuguo doesn't pay much attention to corporate projects.

In short, it all boils down to making more money.

But defense projects are different; if done well, they can enhance the school's reputation.

"Tell me what project it is!"

Ning Shuguo readily agreed.

"We will cooperate to the best of our ability."

Wang Qi took a folder out of the car: "This is the vision for the war zone."

"In short, as the form of warfare evolves, we are exploring multimodal autonomous combat tool models."

"The theater command hopes that your university can focus on developing a firepower integration system that is semi-autonomous or fully autonomous."

"To put it bluntly, it's a mobile bunker."

Ning Shuguo took the document, glanced through it briefly, and mentally gave it a thumbs up.

It's the war zone that's suffering.

Their strategic vision is very advanced.

In this era, unmanned equipment has almost become the mainstream of ground combat.

The war zone is no longer satisfied with small devices such as robot dogs and drones, and has begun to explore large-scale firepower fortresses.

But large size also means technical difficulties.

Ning Shuguo closed the folder: "Minister Wang, we will take the project, but there are some things we need to make clear in advance."

Wang Qi readily agreed, "Principal, please speak freely."

"This project involves many disciplines, and the corresponding levels are also very high."

"Our school will do its best to allocate capable personnel to cooperate with the military region's scientific research."

"But a higher level means greater difficulty and a longer time."

"Can the war zone accept the possibility that after a long period of intensive research, no results will be achieved?"

Scientific research is not like physical labor, where you can just do it and expect results.

This involves in-depth technical research.

Sometimes, a technological bottleneck can remain unresolved for a lifetime.

Moreover, judging from the project's appearance, it is extremely complex, and even if everything goes smoothly, it will take a very long time.

If it's a purely academic project, it will take longer.

However, military projects are highly targeted and time-sensitive.

It'll be too late if it gets too late.

What if the school spends ten or eight years developing its so-called autonomous firepower fortress, and the war zone has already deployed water droplets?

Therefore, all of this should be said in advance to avoid misunderstandings between the two parties later.

Wang Qi smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"Principal Ning, I am a former technical officer, and I fully understand your concerns."

"The concept of this project is very bold, and it is itself a cutting-edge exploration project."

"The war zone will not have high expectations for the project's outcome."

"If no results are achieved over a long period of time, or if there are dead ends in the research process, the war zone will terminate the project in due course, which has nothing to do with the school."

"Our Commander Yang gave us instructions before we came."

"The school should not feel pressured; the war zone will be responsible for all consequences."

Upon hearing this, Ning Shuguo was completely relieved of his worries.

"Alright! In that case, Northwestern Polytechnical University will take on this project. We will do our best to live up to Commander Yang's expectations."

Don't say it.

Dealing with the military is a breeze.

Whether the matter can be accomplished, and how it can be accomplished, will all be discussed with you in advance.

They don't change requirements or add extra charges all the time.

Ning Shuguo felt incredibly relaxed after just a few words with Wang Qi.

"Then I will immediately organize the team in the war zone to connect with your school. After the connection is completed, shall we sign a letter of intent?"

Ning Shuguo extended his right hand and firmly grasped Wang Qi's hand: "No problem! Hurry up."

"Alright, that concludes the first task."

Wang Qi looked at Principal Ning with a smile.

"But the most important thing is actually the second thing."

???

Ning Shuguo was slightly taken aback.

This project is already very significant just by looking at its vision.

It's likely that it can run parallel to the school's aviation programs.

Such a significant project isn't the most important thing?

"Is there anything more important than this?"

Ning Shuguo joked.

"I'm making this clear in advance."

"If the war zone asked us to build Optimus Prime, we couldn't possibly do it."

Wang Qi chuckled apologetically, then waved his hand and said, "It's not that bad."

"My main task on this trip was to represent the war zone and extend my regards to the soldiers in my war zone."

"He studied at your esteemed school; his name is Qin Ze."

? ? ? ?

Ning Shuguo's small eyes were filled with great confusion.

Qin Ze?

Major General Wang Qi, a minister, personally came to the school, just to offer his condolences to Qin Ze?

Goodness gracious.

Qin Ze has a lot of connections.

Also, what is a war zone soldier?

I've heard of people going to the army halfway through college, but I've never heard of someone going to college halfway through military service.

"Minister Wang, are you sure you're not mistaken? Qin Ze? He's from your war zone?"

Wang Qi nodded with a smile: "Yes, in order to better protect him, Commander Yang let him join the army, but this information is currently confidential. Principal Ning, you must also keep it a secret for us."

Ning Shuguo: "Don't worry, don't worry, I know what's important."

"Also, please don't be nervous."

Wang Qi immediately changed his expression and tried to lighten the mood.

"I came here to check on Qin Ze's life and studies."

"Commander Yang cares about him a lot."

Ning Shuguo was extremely shocked, and even a little scared.

They knew this kid was the center of attention.

Previously, Nie Du had already treated him like his own son.

But never expected.

This kid actually managed to get favored by the war zone.

Nie Du Ning Shu Guo Hai wasn't that afraid, but the war zone was a different story.

Fortunately, I took good care of Qin Ze, otherwise, if Yang Xiao, the commander of the war zone, got angry, the entire university would tremble.
