Cutting-edge technology: I handed myself over

Chapter 8: The Meeting Turmoil

The following day at 9 a.m., in a conference hall that could accommodate hundreds of people, Guo Yi took his seat and said directly, "You can look at the plans on your tables first, then exchange ideas with each other. If you have any questions, just come and ask me."

After saying that, Guo Yi opened his laptop and got busy.

"..."

Although they didn't understand, everyone in the meeting room obediently began to read the plan in front of them.

However, after turning only a few pages, everyone present looked up at each other in unison.

Through their eyes, everyone instantly understood the answer: everyone's plans were the same!

Then, everyone lowered their heads and carefully flipped through the pages.

At the same time, Yue Mingyuan, holding the project proposal, sat down next to Zhou Mingde: "Old Zhou, Chief Engineer Guo's project proposal..."

At this point, Yue Mingyuan didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings.

If Guo Yi's proposal is concise, he can understand it. After all, the "Great Exploration" project is too large, belonging to complex mega-systems engineering, and may even be an open complex mega-systems (OCGS) project.

If Guo Yi's plan is clear, then he can understand it. After all, Guo Yi has been living at Old Zhou's house for a while, and Old Zhou has participated in several "mega-systems projects".

With Zhou Lao's assistance, Guo Yi's plan was naturally able to be written clearly.

However, he couldn't understand why Guo Yi's plan was so detailed.

It details exactly how each department, each group, and each stage should proceed, and what the expected outcome should be.

To use an imperfect analogy, if a research project is an exam, then Guo Yi's "Great Voyage" project was an open-book exam with the answers provided: no need to think, just copy it directly.

That's why, in this exam, the top students and the poor students got the same score!

Thinking of this, Yue Mingyuan said with a wry smile, "Old Zhou, you should have told me about this plan earlier."

In that case, the technology planning team wouldn't be working overtime to refine the plan.

"Heh~"

Old Zhou put down the documents in his hand with a wry smile, turned to Yue Mingyuan, and said helplessly, "Do you think I wouldn't tell you if I knew this?"

After asking the question, Old Zhou pointed to the documents on the table: "I don't know about your situation, so I'll just tell you about the materials department. Based on the technical documents provided by Chief Engineer Guo, anyone who knows how to operate the equipment and has basic knowledge could do it. We don't need anyone, not even professionals!"

"Me too..."

"Same……"

After Elder Zhou finished speaking, Elder Li and the others chimed in, "Based on what we've seen so far, we just need to follow the instructions; there's absolutely no technology we need to overcome!"

"..."

After saying that, Old Zhou and the others fell silent, feeling both happy and frustrated.

There are many reasons to be happy, such as being able to witness the completion of the "Great Exploration" plan and being able to participate in it.

The reason for their frustration is simple: they are almost worthless.

"Sigh~"

After a moment of silence, Old Zhou sighed dejectedly, "Let's go find him."

"Um."

"Um!?"

At Li Sisi's prompting, Guo Yi saw Zhou Lao and a group of people gathering around and asked in confusion, "Zhou Lao, is there a problem?"

"This is a huge problem."

Old Zhou placed the documents in front of Guo Yi and said dejectedly, "You should have said you had the complete process earlier. That way, we wouldn't have had to interrupt our current projects to come here. We could have just assigned you a research team that met the confidentiality requirements."

"I already said that."

Guo Yi blinked and spread his hands, saying, "I also told the Special Service Bureau that when you were evaluating me, I also said that I have a lot of knowledge about technological products that are beyond the reach of current technology."

"..."

Old Zhou and the others were taken aback for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "We thought you only had theoretical knowledge, but we didn't expect you to even have experimental data."

"It's just theoretical knowledge."

Guo Yi nodded and explained, "I calculated all the experimental data myself. I don't know whether it can be achieved or whether there will be any unexpected situations along the way."

Furthermore, I need people to compile teaching materials based on this information, and so on.

At this point, Guo Yi said helplessly, "I have only written less than one percent of the materials related to the entire 'Great Exploration' plan. I have no time to write teaching materials at all."

More importantly, I don't know how to write teaching materials.

Furthermore, although I have a lot of knowledge in my mind, it doesn't mean that I have fully learned that knowledge, much less that I can do it.

In addition to that, I also have to personally train trainees and assist the tactical staff in researching tactics, etc.

At this point, Guo Yi half-jokingly feigned sympathy and said, "Old Zhou, since you're all here, why don't you help me with some of the research work?"

Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll work myself to death at my desk.

"..."

Old Zhou looked at the others and asked, "What do you all say?"

After asking the question, Old Zhou helplessly revealed his decision: "I'm on a pirate ship and can't get off, so I have no choice but to stay."

"..."

Old Li and the others exchanged glances and asked, "Do we have the right to develop derivative products?"

"If we have any questions, can we ask you?"

"sure."

Guo Yi nodded without hesitation, then changed the subject: "However, the funding cannot come from the 'Great Exploration' project's budget."

"That's natural."

"We're here, let's get things done."

"Xiao Yue, Xiao Zhou, I'll submit my research paper to you in a few days. Please take care of it."

"..."

"Alright, let's leave it at that then."

"..."

After Old Zhou and the others left, Guo Yi looked at Yue Mingyuan and Zhou Mingde, who hadn't left, and asked, "Old Yue, is there anything else?"

"After the meeting, I will immediately update the technical planning team on the latest situation. The technical planning team will submit the detailed plan to the higher-ups no later than the day after tomorrow."

Yue Mingyuan looked at Guo Yi with concern and asked, "If nothing unexpected happens, the plan will be approved by the higher-ups that day, and a formal notification will be issued to the military."

"The trainees will arrive in four days if things go smoothly, and a week if things go slowly. Will you be able to handle all that?"

"So I'm working overtime to write documentation."

Guo Yi and Yue Mingyuan gestured to the notebook, then looked at Zhou Mingde: "Old Zhou, what's up? Speak up."

"Do the trainees need training grounds built and training equipment manufactured?"

Zhou Mingde looked at Guo Yi with difficulty and said helplessly, "I thought the students wouldn't be coming so soon, so I wasn't prepared at all."

"Let's just set up a normal physical training ground first. As for specialized training equipment, we can talk about that later."

"OK."

"..."

After seeing Yue Mingyuan and Zhou Mingde off, Guo Yi continued to frantically type on the keyboard.

After the meeting room quieted down, Guo Yi looked up and said, "Alright, everyone, let's adjourn and get back to work."
