Cutting-edge technology: I handed myself over

Chapter 39: A Half-True, Half-False Interview Livestream

Although the live stream has been shut down, the story about the Luan Bird Sky Mothership and the Xuan Nu Unmanned Sky Fighter has only just begun.

First, as expected and logical, it became a trending topic.

Less than five minutes after the live stream ended, various media platforms, both domestic and international, were filled with information about the Luan Bird Space Carrier and the Xuan Nu Unmanned Space Fighter.

As for what everyone talks about, it's nothing more than a random combination of ten words: fear, vulnerability, doubt, worry, smugness, provocation, support, opposition, questioning, and neutrality.

Secondly, they are feigning death: neither domestically nor internationally, so far no high-ranking or official personnel have responded to the Luan Bird space carrier and the Xuan Nu unmanned space fighter, as if everything is normal and nothing has happened.

However, there are rumors that a pizza shop owner in a certain area is already looking at new cars and new houses.

Meanwhile, there are also rumors that warships in certain places have suddenly experienced serious safety incidents and are unable to reach a certain location as originally planned.

Finally, it was a frenzy for stock market investors: shortly after the live broadcast ended, all stocks related to military equipment, high-tech, precious metals, and so on—regardless of how closely related they were—hit their daily limit.

This has led to a huge number of investors regretting their decisions, truly missing out on a fortune.

Because some stock investors achieved financial freedom or escaped the abyss because of this wave of limit-up stocks.

Meanwhile, a rumor circulated that the hottest topic outside wasn't the Luan Bird Sky-Piercing Carrier or the Xuan Nu Unmanned Sky-Piercing Fighter, but rather how to speculate on A-shares.

At 2:59 PM, the hustle and bustle around the world came to an abrupt halt, as if the pause button had been pressed.

At 3 o'clock, the live broadcast room screen lit up on time. Zhou Luming, Director Zhang, and host Xiao Sa were sitting together in a place that resembled a teahouse, as relaxed and comfortable as a gathering of friends.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xiaosa."

Xiao Sa greeted them with a smile, then introduced them to the audience: "This is the famous retired military commentator, Director Ju, and this is Zhou Luming, the founder, executive director, and chief technology officer of that technology company, and the chief designer of the Nantianmen scientific research project."

After the pleasantries, Xiao Sa went straight to the main topic of the live stream: "President Zhou, could you introduce the weapons and equipment of the Luan Bird Sky-going Mothership and the Xuan Nu Unmanned Sky-going Fighter to our viewers?"

I did some cramming before the broadcast and discovered that those weapons seemed to be making their debut as well.

"Yes, those weapons are my latest new weapons."

Zhou Luming nodded and said with high spirits, "As for other information, all I can say is this:

Netizens were right; the beam cannon is indeed an energy weapon, and the railgun is indeed an electromagnetic cannon.

After Zhou Luming finished speaking, the Director began to delve deeper into the topic: "President Zhou, everyone knows that electromagnetic railguns consume a lot of electrical energy, and energy weapons, judging from their names, are energy-intensive. So, are our Luan Bird Aerial Carrier and Xuan Nu Unmanned Aerial Combat Aircraft both nuclear-powered?"

"No, we use electricity, not nuclear energy."

Before anyone could ask further, Zhou Luming explained, "I have made groundbreaking research achievements in the fields of power storage, power transmission, and energy utilization efficiency. So, you don't need to worry that electricity can't guarantee the combat time and combat capability of the Luan Bird and the Mysterious Maiden."

"Mr. Zhou, I heard that the new energy self-driving cars and mechs are using your company's batteries."

Are those the same batteries used by the phoenix, only differing in size and capacity?

"Yes, whether it's the car mech or the phoenix, they all use the same battery technology."

Having achieved his goal, Xiao Sa moved on to the next topic as planned: "President Zhou, can those new weapons be installed on equipment such as infantry fighting vehicles?"

Furthermore, will all of our weapons and equipment be converted to electric power in the future?

"You need to ask the officials about these two questions. I don't know, and I dare not ask."

After Zhou Luming finished speaking, the bureau chief took the initiative to say, "I think not only military equipment will be fully electrified, but also our civilian aircraft, automobiles and ships will be fully electrified."

Firstly, since even equipment as heavy as a phoenix can be powered by electricity, then powering tanks, warships, and other equipment with electricity would be a piece of cake.

Secondly, electricity is much cheaper than fuel.

Thirdly, we have abundant electricity resources and a very complete network of electricity-related facilities.

Fourthly, electricity is a clean energy source, which is very beneficial to environmental protection.

Therefore, full electrification is an inevitable trend.

Since they use electricity as their energy source, there must be vehicle-mounted and ship-mounted beam cannons and railguns.

Furthermore, based on my understanding of some people, I can guarantee that those weapons and equipment have already been deployed to a certain scale and are performing remarkably well.

"I see."

Xiao Sa pretended to suddenly realize something and concluded, "No wonder we are vigorously promoting new energy self-driving cars, and no wonder we are selling our current main equipment. The General's insight is brilliant."

After finishing the conversation, Xiao Sa moved on to the next topic: "President Zhou, could you tell us which generation of mechs are currently on the market?"

Also, which generation of mecha is the first one to be revealed?

How can we tell which generation of a mecha it is?

"Just like the generational classification of aircraft, it is based on the generational difference in core technologies."

Therefore, all mechs on the market belong to the second generation of mechs.

As for which generation of mechs the netizens are referring to as "Mech No. 0" and "Mech No. 1," I can't say.

After Zhou Luming finished explaining, the bureau chief interjected as planned: "President Zhou, does that mean that after certain modifications and optimizations, the engineering mechs can achieve performance levels comparable to police mechs?"

After the director finished asking his question, Xiao Sa quickly added, "Viewers, illegally modifying mechs is a criminal offense, punishable by death. Please do not violate this law!"

"..."

After Xiao Sa finished reminding him, Zhou Luming nodded and said, "Theoretically it's possible, but in reality it's very difficult to achieve."

Although both engineering and police mechs belong to the second generation of mechs, there are significant differences between them in terms of internal and external structure, operating systems, and materials.

"Next question..."

"Wen Shu, turn off the live stream."

Upon seeing this, Guo Yi instructed Wen Shu to turn off the live stream.

Because the main purpose of the live broadcast had been achieved, the remaining content was irrelevant to Guo Yi.

Then, Guo Yi smiled and said to Gu Xici, who had been waiting, "Captain Gu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"It's okay, I also want to watch the live stream and take a break while I'm at it."

"Shall we go to school now?"

"Um."

"Sisi, notify the relevant trainees to gather in meeting rooms one and three."

"it is good."
