"Comrade Xiao Wang, may I try out your gun?"

Even Captain Xu from the neighboring province was somewhat moved after seeing Wang Ziyue's work.

“Of course, no problem!” Wang Ziyue readily handed the gun to Captain Xu.

As expected of someone with a background in frontline security personnel, Captain Xu's marksmanship is extremely accurate, achieving excellent results even when shooting at moving targets 25 meters away.

Not only that.

Captain Xu only watched Wang Ziyue change the barrel once, yet he was able to change the barrel quickly during live-fire shooting. At his speed, he could control the time for each barrel change to within 5 seconds.

What's even more commendable is that after Captain Xu replaced the barrel, the Yuan's pistol, crafted by Wang Ziyue, continued to perform remarkably well.

"This gun is absolutely amazing!"

Captain Xu looked at the Yuan-style pistol in his hand and Wang Ziyue with admiration: "Comrade Wang, your modification plan is really great. If Old Man Wen doesn't want it, I'll take it!"

"Hey Lao Xu, you can't poach people like this!" General Manager Wen was both amused and exasperated by Chief Xu's words. "If Comrade Xiao Wang's plan gets approval from headquarters, our security personnel can all get new uniforms. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Headquarters?" Captain Xu shook his head: "We both know how inefficient headquarters is. If we actually get all these procedures done, it'll be too slow. By then, it'll be too late!"

Then, Captain Xu changed the subject: "Now that Comrade Xiao Wang is right in front of me, and I don't have to complete any tasks assigned by headquarters, how could I possibly miss such a good pistol?"

"Fine, fine, I can't argue with you!" President Wen waved his hand, too lazy to argue, and turned to look at Wang Ziyue: "I was a little worried about whether you had received Old Master Chen's true teachings, but now it seems my worries were unnecessary!"

General Wen looked admiringly at the Yuan-type pistol in Captain Xu's hand: "The situation our frontline security personnel are facing is becoming increasingly complex. Many criminals have extremely powerful weapons and are very ruthless. It's fantastic to have such a pistol that is suitable for the combat environment!"

Captain Xu nodded: "Although the primitive pistol that Comrade Wang has modified can't completely solve all the problems, Comrade Wang is very young, and I believe that he will definitely have even better works in the future!"

"Not at all! You two leaders are too kind to me!"

Although Wang Ziyue spoke modestly, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

Of the three pistol modification options available, his is the most appropriate.

As for Tang Ming, since arriving at the Weapons Research Institute, he has spent the entire past month training. At most, he has spent no more than 24 hours a day in his room or in the laboratory.

Can something like this really be considered a good work?

It's impossible for it to be okay!

President Wen, Director He, and Captain Xu were all very satisfied with Wang Ziyue's work, and had even overlooked Tang Ming's existence.

Just when everyone thought the pistol modification experiment was about to end, a sudden voice rang out: "The works of the first three designers were all refreshing. Shouldn't we take a look at Comrade Tang Ming's work next?"

Everyone looked closely and realized that the one who spoke was none other than Engineer Li, who had been silent all along.

"Isn't that unnecessary?" Liu Ying chimed in. Although President Wen had given him a wake-up call, he remained unconvinced by Tang Ming's words and didn't believe Tang Ming could produce any good work in just one day.

"Engineer Li, you probably don't know that after Tang Ming came to our weapons research institute, he only spent one day at most in the laboratory. The rest of the time, he did nothing but train."

"I also think we should just not watch it!" Tang Ming said with a smile. "I'll just be a supporting player, that's fine."

Tang Ming didn't take Liu Ying's childish words and actions to heart at all. In any case, he had made up his mind from the beginning to just come here to loaf around and make up the numbers.

His pistol modification plan was just something he came up with on a whim at the time. Now that I think about it, if I had actually brought it out, I might have been forced to participate in weapons research and development and modification in the future.

If this happens too often, it will have a significant impact on his training.

Anyway, his participation in this weapon research and development and modification was just a formality to cooperate with Fan Tianlei.

Although Tang Ming didn't want to go, someone was keeping a close eye on him.

Engineer Li said with a smile, "President Wen, as far as I know, Tang Ming also used funds allocated for weapons research and development and modification this time, right? And the cost was quite substantial!"

He said this entirely to President Wen, but his eyes were smiling as he looked at Tang Ming.

The implication is simple.

Tang Ming also used the funds allocated for this weapon research and development and modification project. It's a bit unreasonable that so much money was spent but there's been no response.

President Wen also realized that Engineer Li from headquarters was present. Tang Ming had spent the most money among the four designers. If they didn't even produce a decent work, he would have no way to explain himself.

"Comrade Tang Ming, since you're already at the weapons testing range, let's take a look at your work!" President Wen said politely. "We specifically invited four designers this time to encourage a diverse range of ideas!"

Tang Ming couldn't help but give Engineer Li a reproachful look!

This guy is such a killjoy!

Why do you have to interfere when it's something that's good for everyone?

But as Engineer Li said, he did spend money on the research and development and modification of the pistol, so it would be unreasonable not to produce a single work.

"Then I'll make a fool of myself!"

As Tang Ming spoke, he prepared to open his secure box.

At this moment, apart from Engineer Li, President Wen and the remaining two judges focused all their attention on Wang Ziyue's Yuan-style pistol.

The three of them, holding Wang Ziyue's hand, were focused on studying the manufacturing and development process of the Yuan-style pistol, completely ignoring Tang Ming's actions.

Liu Ying, however, looked at Tang Ming's safe with a mixture of suspicion, disdain, and amusement, seemingly lost in thought.

He simply couldn't believe that this overly young special forces soldier, a country bumpkin who spent his days crawling and rolling on the training field, could design any remarkable pistol.

During this time, he also took the time to study Tang Ming's resume and learned that the other party was an extremely outstanding special forces soldier who spent countless hours on training and had no time to conduct weapons research and development.

"If someone like that can be a weapons designer, I might as well just buy a block of tofu and smash my head against it!"

Liu Ying thought to herself, while her gaze was involuntarily drawn to the safe that Tang Ming had opened.

When Liu Ying saw the pistol in Tang Ming's safe, she couldn't help but laugh!

Tang Ming was not an indecisive person. Since he had already decided to conduct the weapons test, he opened his secure box without hesitation.

Director Wen, Director He, and Captain Xu were still gathered together discussing the next steps for updating the Yuan-style pistol with Wang Ziyue, and none of them paid attention to Tang Ming's safe.

When Tang Ming opened his secure box, revealing the finished product of this pistol modification project, Liu Ying couldn't help but laugh.

"Is this your renovation plan?"

Tang Ming didn't even look up, calmly saying, "That's right, this is my renovation plan. Does Engineer Liu have any guidance?"

"Comrade Tang Ming, do you still remember the requirements of this pistol modification plan?" Liu Ying directly used the question that General Wen had just asked him.

"Portability, concealment, a certain degree of destructive power, and suitability for frontline security personnel!"

"Then I'd really like to know which of these requirements you meet?" Liu Ying asked with a grin, pointing to the works in Tang Ming's safe.

Although Liu Ying was enlightened by President Wen, his pride as a designer prevented him from having a good impression of Tang Ming.

It's understandable that Liu Ying felt it was a pity that Wang Shengli and Wang Ziyue were not as good as her, since one was a senior in the industry and the other was a student of a master. Although Liu Ying felt it was a pity, she didn't feel resentful.

But Tang Ming was different.

Not only was he not a designer by training, but he was also a special forces soldier. After arriving at the weapons research institute, he became so unconventional, spending very little time on the research and development and modification of pistols.

"Then please explain to me where this thing's portability and concealment lie?"

It's no wonder Liu Ying asked this question; even Engineer Li from headquarters was somewhat puzzled.

When Tang Ming opened the white secure box, what appeared before them was a dark-colored, somewhat oddly shaped... pistol?

After searching his mind for a long time, Li could only come up with oddly shaped adjectives.

The reason why the Institute of Science and Technology gave the definition of "odd shape" is that Tang Ming's work, apart from maintaining a basic pistol shape, has a flat barrel that looks like several gun barrels combined together.

"Comrade Tang Ming, did you pick up the wrong work?"

Li Gong kindly reminded Tang Ming: "Putting everything else aside, isn't your piece a bit too big?"

As soon as Engineer Li spoke, General Manager Wen, the Director, and Captain Xu finally noticed Tang Ming's situation.

When President Wen saw the pistol in Tang Ming's safe, his face immediately fell.

This was a designer highly recommended by Fan Tianlei, and President Wen had also received some information about Tang Ming from headquarters. Although Wang Ziyue's excellent work preceded it, President Wen did not have high expectations for Tang Ming's work. However, he did not expect that Tang Ming would produce such a perfunctory piece.

Director He and Captain Xu were completely unfamiliar with Tang Ming, and they didn't know why President Wen's expression suddenly darkened.

Could it be because Tang Ming spent too much of the project funds?

Through the information given to them by Premier Wen, they already knew that although Tang Ming had participated in the research and development of the pistol for the shortest time, he had used the most funds in this project.

"Thank you for the reminder, Engineer Li, but this is the pistol I made. I didn't take the wrong one!"

Tang Ming skillfully assembled the pistol from the safe, and soon stood in the firing position with the pistol in hand.

"With your size, how dare you talk about monetization and concealment?" Liu Ying couldn't help but point at Tang Ming's pistol and question him.

The others nodded in agreement.

In any case, for a handgun to be portable, it must be small in size and light in weight.

The world's smallest handgun is only the size of a coin, yet it can fire bullets that travel at speeds exceeding 400 kilometers per hour, far surpassing the speed of sound.

In terms of portability, it can be said to be the most portable handgun in the world today.

However, if these devices are to be issued to frontline security personnel, portability alone is not enough; a certain level of lethality is also very important.

Even so, this pistol modification project couldn't possibly be made larger than a regular pistol, could it?

However, the pistol in Tang Ming's hand is at least one-third larger than a regular pistol, so it's hard to tell where its portability comes from, let alone its concealment.

Faced with everyone's questions, Tang Ming casually replied, "Although this pistol is a bit big, it weighs less than 330 grams!"

“330 grams? That’s impossible!” Liu Ying said almost instinctively.

Just now, the data on the works of Wang Shengli, Liu Ying, and Wang Ziyue were all clearly displayed.

Even the smallest and lightest of Wang Lao's works, the Greedy Wolf, weighs 500 grams when unloaded.

Tang Ming's pistol is twice the size of Wang Lao's Greedy Wolf pistol, so how could it only weigh 330 grams?

However, immediately afterward, Premier Wen and others saw from the pistol testing equipment that the pistol in Tang Ming's hand really only weighed 325 grams.

If that's the case, then portability isn't an issue.

With such a large gun body, yet so light, is this a model pistol?

But no one said it aloud.

To ask that question would be incredibly insulting to Tang Ming.

"What about the concealment of this gun?" President Wen's expression softened, but he was still somewhat unwilling to let Tang Ming off the hook.

Concealment can be manifested in many ways.
