Chapter VI Military Research Institutes

Six months!

According to conventional theory, it will take at least sixteen months to build an aircraft carrier with a displacement of more than 100,000 tons from reservation to departure from factory, to install weapons and equipment, and officially put into use. It is still in the test stage. External armor needs to be redesigned, and the time it takes to consume at least three times.

According to the theories of some well-known international military experts, submersible aircraft carriers have the advantages of both high-strength attack capabilities of fighter aircraft and fish strike capabilities and diving concealment capabilities of submersible aircraft carriers. Using this submersible aircraft carrier no longer requires a huge frigate group, which can exert flexible maneuvering and high-strength strike capabilities to the limit. It will surely become the main theme of the future marine battlefield. It is expected that in 20 years, this submersible aircraft carrier will officially win the world.

But Richard actually told us that we can have this super weapon in just six months if we only need to spend 30 billion US dollars in!

Could it be that this kind of weapon is twenty years ahead of any country's weapons?

Richardkin saw my suspicion and shook his head and said, "It's not as long as twenty years. You must understand that a super weapon will go through from successful tests to small-scale production to formal use. Even if the United States, the richest man in the world, spends tens of billions of dollars at one time to build an aircraft carrier, and then arm the entire warship with tens of billions of dollars, they must also consider financial pressure and protests from the people. Those who can do this regardless of everything..."

Richard looked at me deeply, and in my expectant eyes, his face flushed and said, "This kind of person is like me, a madman! All madman! And he is the kind of super war madman who is powerful and will throw nuclear bombs when forced into an emergency!! Only a super war madman can truly bring my child to the limit, make it a ghost warship that everyone talks about in the Pacific, and make our fifteen years of hard work a great milestone in world military history!!!"

"I only have one requirement for you. Please promise me that unless I am actively attacked, I will never use such warships to attack any of our Russian targets. We are all Russians. Even though the country has given up on this project and given up on its recognition of her, we cannot sell our children to our future enemies!"

Russia is not in our offensive industry, and I have any reason to reject a scientist who deeply loves his motherland and ask for the humblest condition to me? He has really reached the end of his life and has left his self-esteem to come here. Isn’t the symbol that represents the infinite size of mathematics the most authentic price of their latest technology that transcends the world for at least ten years?

Behind his arrogant expression, isn’t it that I’m eager to have an investor who truly understands him? Not to mention a semi-finished diving aircraft carrier, even if it’s just a group of scientists who have invested fifteen years of hard work in the diving aircraft carrier field, I think it’s far more than the price of 30 billion.

Zhao Yonggang asked in confusion: "This kind of ultra-modern weapon, especially the semi-finished product from the hands of you, the father of modern diving aircraft carrier, must be listed as a first-class military secret by Russia. Even if the Ministry of Defense is unable to continue investing, it can only give up the entire project, but no matter what, it is impossible for you to auction such super weapons beyond the age, right?"

"What other super weapons included in the first-class military secrets? I won't be able to find a buyer who knows the goods anymore. We have invested fifteen years of hard work to fill all our savings into the ultra-modern war fortress will be treated as scrap iron!"

Richard Jin cried and finally revealed the dilemma they faced: "Our diving aircraft carrier experimental products were manufactured in Volgotanker, the largest shipyard in Russia. Since the entire project was extended indefinitely, our aircraft carrier has been very polite to the shipyard and thrown into the wilderness like garbage. After years of sun and rain, the fireproof paint on the entire ship surface has fallen off and become rusty. In the eyes of those laymen, we have incorporated the most modern military technology weapons, and have become a pile of super garbage that is annoying to see, sent to the garbage disposal center, and has to pay a considerable transportation fee!"

"What's even worse is that due to the impact of the terrorist incident at Jakarta Airport, Volgotanker was recently issued a notice by the government to immediately pay the tax of $23 million in 2001. As a result, Volgotanker actually transferred the bad debt to us and ordered us to pay the shipbuilding funds immediately, otherwise our submersible aircraft carriers would be auctioned according to the tonnage."

Speaking of this, our father of modern diving aircraft carrier, Richard Jin was already indignant and raised his dry and powerless arm. He didn't know whether he was urging the shamelessness of Volgotanker's company or the bastard who denounced terrorists in Russian.

Unexpectedly, things were going around for a long time, and the source of the initiation was actually us. Could it be that God intended to arrange for us to meet Richard King, and when he was in the most embarrassing time, he took advantage of the situation to rob them and buy them together with the ship?

Before the end of the journey, how could a scientific freak like Richard, run to the Xia Tagil Military Expo and wait for the price, and how could we tolerate our rudeness and repeated interrogation?

Now that things have come to this point, I have no hesitation and said decisively: "Okay, as long as you can prove that the weapon you introduced to me is true, no matter how likely it is to succeed, I will bet on you for 30 billion!"

I know I have found a treasure. A country that is so powerful that it can compete with the United States. Of course, it has a systematic military scientific research system. Through continuous research and development, they integrate the most advanced technology into various weapons and strengthen the combat effectiveness of the troops. Military projects such as submersible aircraft carriers were definitely one of the most core research and development projects of the Soviet Union, but because this project was too grand, the time and funds required to be invested too much. When the Soviet Union collapsed and triggered a chain economic collapse, the government's financial department could not even guarantee the most basic maintenance costs of the space station, let alone investing tens of billions of funds into this seemingly bottomless vortex.

In this super catastrophe, I don’t know how many outstanding talents are wandering overseas, and I don’t know how many projects that can make their country’s economic and military leap development have been forced to break up and become historical garbage forgotten by everyone.

Just like Richard, the father of the modern diving aircraft carrier in front of me, if we had not met unexpectedly, their plan, which might have become a pioneer of cross-age reform in naval warfare, would have been auctioned off because of a 23 million US dollar debt, and become a refurbished steel in the smelting furnace.

Even though I had the greatest guess about Richardkin and his situation and the situation of the submersible aircraft carrier, when we followed Richardkin to the scrap disposal center two kilometers away from the Volgotanker shipyard in Russia, we were still stunned by the scene in front of us.

How sad it is to throw a pearl in a dark place, how sad it is to die a thousand-mile horse Pian at the hands of a mediocre person?

Do you know what the concept is that a hull of 360 meters long, more than 40 meters wide, and a displacement of 110,000 tons?

It is larger than the sum of the two football fields! It is taller than the fifteen-story building!!!

A few kilometers away, we can see it standing tenaciously and lonely in the wilderness, facing the salty sea breeze, letting the wind and rain hit it. It is piled up with a pile of broken iron barges and cars, like an elderly man with yellow spots on his face, sighing, helpless, ragged, year after year, until the arrival of his last death.

Looking at the thick rust on its body, putting its hands on the hull, feeling the calmness and strength unique to the armored weapons, I could almost hear its whine and crying. It should have galloped thousands of miles in the sea and became the focus of the world, the upstart and darling among super weapons. But now, he can only stay here quietly, with a lot of garbage.

It has been silent for many years. The hull, about one meter deep, was trapped in the soil. Its side was covered with weeds half a human tall. In some sunshine, it could not be sunk into the dark corners all year round. I even found a few small... mushrooms! Looking at these things that grew tenaciously in an environment that were not suitable for survival and tried to show a few small white umbrellas, I really don’t know whether I should cry or laugh.

As I walked, a "ding" sound suddenly came from my feet. Under my stunned gaze, a micro-guidance system chip that could be sold for at least one million US dollars in the international arms market even climbed out of a pile of weeds. Looking at the micro-guidance system chip that only retained a plastic shell, I couldn't help but fall into a long silence.

Zhao Yonggang sighed lightly: "Its condition is really bad. Just polishing off the rust outside the surface and re-painting special fireproof paint will probably cost about 15 million US dollars."

"Yes, we have also used various methods to protect it, but it is really too big." Richard Jin looked at his child who had been trained for fifteen years, and his face was full of helpless bitterness: "It takes two weeks to cover it with rainproof canvas, but before we were finished, the homeless man secretly cut off large pieces of canvas and cut the cables. A sea breeze blows at night, which is enough to make all our efforts go into scattering. We are not in enough hands and cannot take care of it. Those people climbed onto the boat with ropes, and billions of electronic equipment actually turned into rags worth only a few dozen dollars in their hands! The funniest thing is that our anti-sonar integrated system was stolen by someone and threw it into the garbage dump. I think they have 80% of the system integrated chips that cost $200 million, as a box-type recorder that can no longer be used!"

In this world, what else is more ridiculous and helpless than such a thing?

Yes! It's really fucking!!!

Richard took us to climb the diving aircraft carrier. Seeing him struggling, I was really worried that he would fall down when his hand slipped. Without such a core figure to help me organize research and construction, this diving aircraft carrier would only become a pile of scrap iron facing the fate of recycling.

"Don't worry, I 'like' this 'sport'. In order to protect this ship and save money, we simply moved the research room and dormitory to the cabin. I'm used to climbing up and down." As soon as Richard climbed onto the deck, he grabbed a steel pipe and knocked on a shell shell hanging in the air with iron chains for more than a dozen times. With a jingling sound, he shouted at the top: "Tell everyone good news, I have found a suitable investor, and our research project can continue! Everyone clean up and prepare to welcome the distinguished guests!"

Richard Jin completely put down his airs of being a senior figure in the field of military research in the country. In fact, even he himself was incredible. His IQ was as high as 225 points, second only to Einstein, who promoted human civilization rocket-like rockets. A person like him did not need to learn about normal interactions between people, nor did he need to be careful to flatter others to observe other people's faces.

But facing the young man behind him, he didn't even know why, and he actually showed unprecedented modesty: "Our laboratory is a bit simple due to lack of funds, please!"

Imagine a research laboratory that studies diving aircraft carriers, which gathers seventeen academicians of the National Military Research Institute, fifty-six professors, and sixty-three doctors. What should it look like?

The high-mounted TV wall, thousands of computers work together, flashing lights everywhere, digital dials are jumping everywhere, large instruments with unknown uses are lined up into a long wall, and instruments are beeping warnings from time to time. The staff were wearing white coats, working busy and fulfilling in a neat and orderly environment. In some corners, guards holding automatic weapons were swimming and patrolling vigilantly... Of course this is impossible!

This semi-finished diving aircraft carrier was thrown into the wilderness. Of course, no one kindly helped them pull a wire. The core dynamic reactor of the diving aircraft carrier was just a painting cake to satisfy their hunger and has not been officially implemented, so there is no... electricity in this laboratory!

Without electricity, there will be no computers, there will be no flashing lights, and there will be no large large instruments that do not know their purpose. Under the illumination of more than a dozen acetylene lamps, more than a hundred ragged people like beggars squeezed in front of more than a dozen tables, using triangle plates, compass, semicircular instruments, calipers and other primitive instruments to write and draw on some drawings, staring at their companions from time to time, and shouting out some scientific terms that don’t know what they are. No one welcomes us, the group of investors or future bosses, and few people are willing to waste time and pay attention to us.

I really want to ask them how many months have they not taken a shower. These people, regardless of gender, age, all look black on their faces, and can smell a strong sour smell before they get close.

It is now lunch time. These academicians, professors and doctors of the research institute who are extremely noble are drinking vegetarian lentil soup while gnawing on dry bread. Their eyes are still staring at the drawings and their mouths are constantly squirming. God knows whether they are chewing food or calculating data to themselves.

Suddenly someone threw away the soup bowl and dry bread in his hand, and threw himself on the drawings and wrote and painted. Ten minutes later, he suddenly hugged the person beside him and jumped, cried and screamed. Others grabbed the spoon and knocked on the soup bowl. For a moment, the entire laboratory was in chaos.

We looked at the scene in front of us in amazement. It was not like a scholar, authority, or master's laboratory. They were simply beggars, bandits, madmen, and hooligans! Compared to them, Richardkin was the most normal and kindest good friend to us!

Bu Shanna couldn't help asking, "I can't understand Russian. What did he say just now?"

Zhao Yonggang replied in a low voice: "He said he had just solved a technical problem. Without increasing defensive firepower and the load on the battleship, he could strengthen the ship-to-air defense capabilities of 0.01% of the entire battleship."

0.01 percent!

That is almost one-tenth of ten thousand. Faced with this pitiful number, none of us showed a sarcastic smile. When we looked at the group of experts in front of us, we had respect in our eyes! It is because of this kind of person that human technology continues to attack, and humans will continue to explore without satisfaction. It is because of this kind of person that I dare to be sure that the warship I decided to buy can travel at will in the Pacific Ocean and put the sea wolf tactics proposed by Hitler during World War II to the limit.

This is a special group that is poorer than beggars and richer than the king.

Richarghin pointed to everyone in the laboratory and proudly said, "See it. This is my partner who studies diving aircraft carriers with me. Among them are physicists from the Institute of Metals, electronic experts who study radar confrontation, chemistry experts who study improved various weapons so that they can shoot faster and more accurately, and biochemical experts who cultivate dolphins and octopuses... The national finance department believes that we are still conducting such unrealistic research, which is a waste of precious time. After we refuse to join the new project, they actually canceled the special subsidy for us academicians of the institute. Each of us has not received a salary for nearly ten years, but we still persisted!"

They actually persisted for ten years in such an inhuman environment!

These more than 100 scientists alone are enough for me to pay 30 billion US dollars.

Bai Ruiqi held my ear and whispered: "When we were discussing the transaction, we tied up all of these people and weapons, and we could only get rid of one of them!"

I nodded fiercely. If you let someone like this, you will be the biggest loss for me, Fu Yinxue, and my future ghost warships that will traverse the Pacific Ocean.

Zhao Yonggang also attached himself to my ear and whispered: "Boy, use your charm of commanding one hundred times. You can have a super big kill that is suitable for both young and old. Whether you can have a smooth life or not in the Pacific Ocean and make your enemies frustrated depends on your vote!"
