Chapter 209: Chapter 209
Qin Manman was at a loss. She hadn’t had a chance to watch the live replay yet and assumed it was just a routine question. So she said confidently:
"Applicable to any mechanical power."
Cars, ships, planes... The original engine size can be halved, with a 15% improvement in performance. This is definitely a groundbreaking high-tech product!
Qin Manman’s expression darkened: This time, surely no one in Zheng Country will be ahead of her!
Previously, she was careless. Those new materials were published only a year and a half earlier than the original timeline, meaning the other party might have had a finished product in her past life but delayed its release.
But now, this miniature engine still had at least ten years in her past life’s history.
A ten-year lead could not be suppressed by any result!
This time, she would definitely succeed!
As she was deep in thought, David’s breathing had already become heavy.
[Any mechanical power...]
Does this mean... Mecha?!
He gripped his phone tightly and whispered, "Manman, wait for me. I’m setting off right now!"
Even if the result isn’t as excellent as the Mecha, as long as it’s not too far off, having research samples and ideas means performance improvement is only a matter of time!
His country has such excellent teams and a high level of scientific research. Once the foundation is set, everything will take flight!
Zheng Country, just a momentary pride!
The material research before was indeed not worthy of upgrading; now it stands there seemingly useless, with no room for improvement, so it was abandoned.
But now... Content originally comes from novelFirｅ.net
No one invented it before they had to work hard on research. Now that Zheng Country already has a product and can even showcase it, the United States definitely can’t fall behind!
No matter the cost, it must be studied intensely!
The United States is the strongest! The world’s number one country!
He started making calls like crazy.
The Future Technology Laboratory.
The payroll in the finance office was seamless, dismissed employees packed their things in threes and fives, and silently left this promising research institute.
After Qin Manman signed and took over the finance’s seal, she immediately locked herself in the laboratory, gently caressing that engine with ambition in her eyes!
However, suddenly remembering the strange looks people gave her when she left the lab, she hesitated for a moment and decided to open the long-unopened social platform.
In the densely packed message box, from Mr. Qin’s cutoff of cash flow, to bankruptcy application, to seeking help from his daughter...
All messages were unread with no response from anyone.
He even waited at the institute’s gate, but unfortunately, Qin Manman feared his interference—anyway, what’s the rush?
Now public opinion isn’t great, Father should be more patient...
Therefore, the security didn’t let anyone in.
Not even Mr. Qin’s father.
When Qin Manman opened Weibo, the overlapping private messages made her phone freeze instantly.
After a while, when the phone finally recovered, the trending headlines were so striking—
[Boom! Parade Mecha!]
[Boom! Our country’s independently developed mechanical armor]
Qin Manman’s heart tightened, she quickly clicked into the video, and the next second she felt her breath catch.
How can there be Mecha?!
Who exactly created it? There clearly wasn’t any in her past life!
She instantly fell into a whirlpool of self-doubt.
She always thought that her failures twice before were not due to her incompetence or memory error, but her rebirth triggered a domino effect, causing some research results to be published early.
But now, she saw Mecha.
—How could it be possible?
In her past life, until she died in the raging fire, no one had researched it, not even a bit of related information ever surfaced.
Who exactly changed the future?
Could it be... another, more talented person has been reborn?
Her face turned pale, and she shivered immediately!
No, no, not possible!
If someone else had been reborn, they would definitely not let her go, but so far she has been fine... which proves that the world has just changed!
But this also made all her advantages vanish.
Qin Manman wasn’t stupid. Seeing the ultraminiature engine in front of her, she immediately understood the real meaning behind David’s question.
Thinking of the previous back-and-forths with the United States’ lawyers, Qin Manman felt lost and directionless.
She looked at the empty lab, feeling a sense of panic—
Only an empty research institute, some leftover materials...
She bit her lip—this time, she had to sell the current results no matter what. Even if she had to use some wit to sell it!
Even if it meant lowering the price, she absolutely couldn’t let them add any additional clauses! With the money, she’d be fine in her own country!
The country should protect her, after all, she’s just a citizen.
As for after selling it, when they find out these engines can’t match the powerful performance needed by Mecha even after upgrades, will they vent their anger on David...
Qin Manman pursed her lips, her eyes slightly red—
She would definitely compensate David!
Besides, no one tested Mecha in her past life; what if it works?
When people from the United States rushed over overnight, Chang Geng had just finished a true and proper planning report on the Holographic Cabin, including the spiritual power initiation experiment, which had officially begun.
Everyone was dizzy and their steps felt floaty due to the successive shocking news, except for Chu River, who was leisurely knocking on a sand timer that had completely turned gray while sitting in his office.
The tinkling sound was especially casual.
Seeing Chang Geng return, she grinned mischievously: "I found that as long as the level is slightly lower than yours, you never have to worry about these boring reports, or think about how to persuade others, it’s awesome!"
Chang Geng just smiled silently, reached out to take the small sand timer from her hand, inspected it carefully, then tossed it into the trash bin next to him.
The smart sensing trash bin immediately activated, and with a slight crushing sound, the small sand timer was instantly ground into a pile of fine sand.
Chu River didn’t mind at all, at this moment looking at the screen showing Qin Manman’s miniature engine, frowning:
"This engine really has quite a bit of upgrade potential, are you just going to sell it like that?"
Chang Geng chuckled softly, "Of course selling it—why not sell it? I modified several sets of nested data; if they follow this route, they can never create a truly revolutionary product."
Just slowly increase the performance by 1%, 2% on this basis.
After all, it’s a major friendly country. As long as they’re willing to invest money, giving them a 5% performance improvement space, is also giving everyone some hope!
And when Chu River also laughed, he sighed instead.
"The next project can already start to go into sequestration mode, and the prototype robot can start at any time—"
Under the light, the shadow beneath his thick eyelashes appeared exceptionally gentle:
"Little He, you have to set out."
