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

Yang Xiao couldn't understand!

The proposal that Wang Qi submitted sounded like it was written after he had been drinking fake alcohol.

That's pure nonsense.

With a scale of billions of yuan, more than 20 research institutes involved, and a total of 7,000 people!

This would be considered a large-scale national project anywhere.

The idea of ​​a multimodal autonomous combat tool is just one idea from the Central Theater Command.

It can be considered a forward-looking experimental project.

Yang Xiao's inner expectation was simply to have a few tens of millions of yuan, one or two teams, a dozen or so people, to do some preliminary theoretical exploration.

If there are positive results, further investment will be made.

If there are no results, then forget it.

But what Wang Qi presented was clearly a proposal for a large-scale project.

"Wang Qi, are you getting too cocky?"

"Don't you know the resources of the war zone?"

"If 3.5 billion is invested in your project, which is still in its infancy, what will the other troops eat?"

"In addition, there are 28 research institutes, with 7,000 people?"

"Do you think you're the State Science and Technology Commission? You think you can mobilize so many people?"

Wang Qi immediately explained, "Commander, I think this project deserves such a large investment."

"What do you mean, 'you think'?! A preliminary research project, and the whole country is mobilized for it?"

"The money in the war zone doesn't just fall from the sky."

"Those cigarettes were smoked one by one by smokers."

"How can you do this reckless thing and do it right by those ordinary people with blackened lungs?"

Yang Xiao's words were very sharp.

In war zone operations, efficiency is undoubtedly the top priority.

However, it is also important to be realistic.

You just casually wrote a few strokes of your pen and spent over three billion.

What if the project fails?

Then all that money and effort would be wasted.

Even if you really like this project, you can't be this wasteful.

"Projects of this scale are all large-scale equipment projects approved by the state."

"Like main battle tanks and airplanes."

"You're a veteran in equipment manufacturing; I don't believe you wouldn't know this."

"How dare you even ask for something like this for a preliminary research project?"

Faced with a barrage of accusations from the commander.

Wang Qi was somewhat resentful.

Seizing the opportunity presented by Yang Xiao, he immediately interjected, "Commander, this plan has a concrete technical roadmap."

"Is there a technical approach?"

Yang Xiao then stopped making accusations.

If it's just a pipe dream, why invest so many resources?

That's truly wasteful.

But if there's a specific route, it's a bit better.

At least it will let him know where the money is spent.

"Have you reported the technical approach?"

Wang Qi said somewhat aggrievedly, "It's on the second page..."

Yang Xiao immediately turned the page.

I discovered that the second page did indeed describe the specific technical approach of the solution.

Northwestern Polytechnical University has proposed a project called Multifunctional Humanoid Mecha.

A brief description of the project is also attached below.

Yang Xiao frowned as he looked at it: "A humanoid mecha? Is it the kind of humanoid mecha I imagined?"

"I don't know if you've heard of the fall of Titan?"

Wang Qi added.

"It's similar to that one."

Yang Xiao suddenly widened his eyes: "Titans have fallen? You're here protecting my Pilots?"

Wang Qi: "???"

To everyone's surprise, Yang Xiao was a hardcore internet addict.

Wang Qi learned about the fall of Titans through this project and through the stories told by those young students.

Where is the commander?

He blurted it out.

Yang Xiao was angry because he knew about the fall of Titan.

"You and Northwestern Polytechnical University dare to include things from games in your report?"

"It's one thing if you're unreliable."

"Can Principal Shuguo really be this unreliable?"

He couldn't believe that the phrase "Titanfall" would appear in a plan jointly drafted by the military and the school.

Wang Qi immediately explained, "This is just a preliminary idea. The university and I have always felt that there is no more vivid description than this."

"Okay, okay!"

Yang Xiao laughed in exasperation.

"Since it's a specific technical approach, what about the research paper?"

"You need some realistic basis to approve this project so quickly, right?"

Yang Xiao had worked on many specific projects before, especially those in cooperation with schools.

Typically, researchers at the university first write a paper to determine a research direction.

Then the theater command or the science and technology commission will gradually approve and explore the projects to determine their application direction and feasibility.

In any case, the first paper is the starting point for the project.

Since the university dared to include the fall of Titan in its report, surely there must be a paper about it?

Facing Yang Xiao's intense gaze, Wang Qi nodded and said, "I have a paper."

"Where!"

Yang Xiao flipped through the report until it was worn out, but still couldn't find the paper.

"I've already deployed personnel to guard Warehouse No. 2 of the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering at Northwestern Polytechnical University?"

Yang Xiao was so angry he could hardly breathe.

"No! Did you drink it or what?"

"Two pages of paper, are they in the warehouse?"

"They even sent people to keep watch?"

"Wouldn't it be better to store it on an encrypted hard drive?"

Wang Qi pouted: "We can't save it, Commander. This project's paper is a physical object..."

"Even the actual product isn't that bad... wait a minute!"

Yang Xiao suddenly widened his eyes.

"What is a physical object?"

Wang Qi: "This project did not have a thesis in the traditional sense; it only had a physical prototype."

"The machine has undergone preliminary testing, and I witnessed the entire testing process."

"The machine parameters are as I reported in the report; they are all data obtained from experiments."

Yang Xiao was stunned for half a second.

I picked up that tattered report again.

The machine is 4.5 meters tall and weighs 750 kilograms.

[Equipped with an all-solid-state battery, providing up to 2.3 hours of continuous use on a single full load]

The entire machine is equipped with 2+2 multi-functional modular ports, allowing switching between 48 different modules, including high-lethality modules such as laser and electromagnetic sensors…

Looking at these exaggerated words.

Yang Xiao's mind was buzzing.

No!

What is a prototype?

Even if you put these parameters in a forward-looking paper, I still think they are too bold.

And now you're telling me this thing is a parameter obtained through testing?

Good heavens!

Yang Xiao felt a chill run down his spine upon closer examination.

A humanoid mech over four meters tall, equipped with multiple weapon ports.

When the theater command first proposed the idea of ​​multimodal autonomous combat tools, they didn't dare to think of it this way!

Isn't this a veritable war machine?

"Wait a minute!"

Yang Xiao shook his head vigorously.

"I'm a little slow to react."

"You mean... this project can be mass-produced?"

Wang Qi nodded: "Yes, the results of the first experiment were excellent, and the university has already organized the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering to begin further in-depth research."

Yang Xiao was somewhat incredulous: "Is Northwestern Polytechnical University cheating?"

"Commander, the specific details are already clearly stated in the report."

Wang Qi explained.

"All the parameters are not hypothetical, but results from real experiments."

"I believe this project has the potential to be approved immediately and move towards mass production."

"Therefore, the project report indicates that more resources should be allocated."

Billions of dollars plus the investment of thousands of people.

It was truly a desperate gamble.

Wang Qi knew this was a pressure for the commander.

But he still tried his best to promote it and hoped to bring the project to fruition.

"Commander, this project is of great significance to the Army."

"To be conservative, this project could completely change the nature of land warfare."

"If all else fails, we'll try to reduce the scale..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Yang Xiao suddenly waved his hand: "This scale definitely won't work!"

Wang Qi was somewhat disappointed, but still tried: "Then let me think of a way. Let's initially limit the amount to 2 billion, and reduce the staff by half to 3,000 people. Is that okay?"

"No!"

Yang Xiao's face turned ashen.

"The project size is set at 10 billion."

Wang Qi: ?

"As for research institutions and personnel, the more the better. Ideally, all relevant institutions across the country should join in. Let's start with 12,000 people!"

Wang Qi: ? ? ? ?
