"Help!"
"Run!"
"The sea monster is eating people!" The fishing boat was already in a mess.
Seeing his brother being eaten, Tanaka Jiro turned pale, but he did not scream. Instead, he immediately came to the cockpit and quickly used the satellite phone to call for rescue.
"This is the fishing boat Tanaka. We were attacked by a sea monster. Please ask for support! Coordinates (XX)!" After Tanaka Jiro released the distress signal, he did not forget to record the video with his mobile phone.
He saw that in the video, the "sea monster" was enjoying hunting, and it was killing the crew members calmly.
Some crew members were frightened and jumped directly into the sea, but there seemed to be other monsters in the sea. Those crew members who were good at water would make no sound when they jumped.
"Hello, hello, this is the security hall. Are you sure we have encountered a sea monster?" The operator didn't believe it. How could there be a sea monster?
However, Tanaka Jiro had no energy to reply.
"Escape, I must escape!" In the chaos, he ran to the lifeboat at the stern of the ship, jumped on it and started it.
"Save me!" Some crew members tried to follow him, but were knocked down by the monster.
Without looking back, Tanaka Jiro started the lifeboat and rushed out.
Behind him were the screams of the crew! When he looked back, he saw that the monster was eating people. Its head without eyes turned towards Tanaka Jiro, its bloody mouth opened wide and split open, and half of its head rolled to the ground. It seems to be laughing and mocking!
This scene was deeply etched in Tanaka Jiro's mind, and he will never forget it!
At this time, the operator of the Sakura Coast Guard Agency reported the distress message.
"Are you sure it's the Tanaka's distress signal? It's not a prank?" the person in charge, Kojima Yan, asked.
"We checked the port information and declaration records, and the Tanaka was indeed fishing in nearby waters at this time. There is no problem with the signal. As for the sea monster, it may have encountered a large marine life." The operator was not sure, "In short, the ship encountered question."
"Dispatch the search and rescue team immediately!" Kojima Yan ordered, and his subordinates immediately executed, "Wait!"
Kojima Yan thought for a while and then warned: "Deploy a surface patrol ship and a patrol aircraft."
"Captain, it's just a rescue of the fishing boat. Is it necessary?" A subordinate was puzzled.
"Performing a mission!" Kojima Yan did not explain, he always felt a little uneasy.
He didn't really believe in sea monsters, but the frequent occurrence of deformed sea creatures in the nearby sea recently made him feel a little uneasy.
Kojima Yan himself also acted together with the search and rescue team. He took a patrol plane and headed straight for the target sea area.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the target sea area.
"Sir, target found!" the pilot shouted, "Tanaka is sinking!"
In their field of vision, half of a medium-sized fishing boat was already under the sea.
"Call Tanaka, call Tanaka, this is the Coast Guard, we are performing a rescue mission!" The correspondent was still trying to contact the crew on the Tanaka, but could not receive any response.
"Get closer! Check the situation!" Kojima Yan ordered.
The patrol plane began to descend slowly. Kojima Yan held a telescope and could almost see the situation above clearly.
After just one glance, his expression changed drastically!
The deck was covered in blood! Usually, this is also very common on fishing boats. Some deep-sea fish are not easy to preserve, so they are processed directly on the deck.
But the blood here is not fish blood, but human blood! Because he could clearly see that there were human body parts on it, and it looked like they had been brutally killed by some kind of monster!
"What...what happened?" Kojima Yan's voice was trembling.
"Captain, look, it's a sea monster! It's a sea monster!" the pilot shouted in horror.
As the plane continued to approach, they could see that on the deck, there was another monster nearly five meters long. It had a black carapace on its back and thorn-like spikes. It had no eyes, claws and The big mouth is currently chewing food.
And the thing it ate was vaguely visible, and it was part of a human limb!
"There really is a sea monster!" Kojima Hiko was going crazy. What kind of species is this? Why have he never heard of it before?
They couldn't bear to look at this bloody and cruel scene!
"The crew, I'm afraid they are all dead!" The pilot's hands couldn't help but tremble.
At this time, the "sea monster" had noticed them. It roared at the aircraft, then tore part of the hull and smashed towards the aircraft.
"Lift off, lift off!" Kojima Yan shouted hurriedly, "Call for help, kill it, no, capture it!"
The patrol plane only had machine guns, and a team member immediately controlled the machine gun and attacked the sea monster.
The bullets poured out and the sea monster was injured. It became even more angry and jumped up, tens of meters high!
This scared Kojima Yan and others out of their wits. This guy can actually jump high?
"Run!" Kojima Yan no longer wanted to fight.
The plane continued to rise, and the pilot's palms were all sweaty. Fortunately, the sea monster couldn't jump so high and could only roar at them.
At this time, the sound of a patrol ship sounded, indicating that support was coming.
"Hurry up and support us, bombard that monster!" Kojima Yan shouted into the communicator.
Everyone on the patrol ship held back their shock and started shelling.
The first shell did not hit the sea monster, but hit the wreckage of the Tanaka, making a violent explosion.
Seeing this, the sea monster dived into the sea and disappeared without a trace.
"It ran away!" Kojima Yan was still terrified!
"Captain, the crew must have been eaten by it, what should we do?" the team members asked with pale faces.
"Continue to search!" Kojima Yan tried to keep himself calm, "In addition, no one should make any announcement about this matter, I will report it!"
…
When the search and rescue team found Jiro Tanaka, he was already unconscious.
"He was overly frightened and had no physical problems," the doctor said.
"Sea monster, don't eat me! Ah!" Tanaka Jiro woke up from his dream and saw a group of people surrounding him.
"Don't be afraid, you are safe." The doctor comforted.
Tanaka Jiro was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into tears and shouted: "My brother and my friends were all killed by sea monsters! They were eaten cruelly!"
Everyone was silent, and an investigator said: "Mr. Tanaka, could you please describe in detail what happened?"
"We were collecting the net at that time and found that there was a big hole in the fishing net..." Jiro Tanaka recalled with fear.
"Very good." The investigator has finished recording.
"You must kill it!" Tanaka Jiro begged, "As long as this monster exists, we fishermen will not be able to go fishing!"
"Don't worry, we will handle it." Soon, the investigator reported the information.
"I'm sure it's a sea monster. We saw it with our own eyes and there's video evidence!" Kojima Yan was speaking in a secret conference room.
Of all the people present, no one held a lower position than him.
"Professor Fujioka, what do you think?" one of them asked a gray-haired old professor who is an expert in this field.
"I think it is a marine creature that has been mutated by nuclear sewage pollution. It is more aggressive than ordinary marine creatures!" Shingo Fujioka said with a serious expression: "And I conclude that there is more than one such creature in the ocean. Next, these mutated monsters are posing a threat to us!"
"We must take action..."
"Absurd!" A voice interrupted him. A big shot spoke angrily, "There is no sewage, no pollution, and no mutant creatures. Do you understand?"
"But this is a fact!" Fujioka Shingo still wanted to defend, but the other party shouted directly, "This is just an ordinary shipwreck. Because of the ship accident, the Tanaka was in danger and everyone was killed!"
"In short, this matter must not be announced to the outside world. Otherwise we will face huge pressure!"
Fujioka Shingo's expression was shocked, and Kojima Hiko did not dare to speak. They knew that if this matter was announced, it would have a huge negative impact on the entire Sakura.
First comes the fishery, then there is pressure from all walks of life domestically, the issue of nuclear power plants will be put in front of the public again, and there is also international pressure.
"Do you still have any questions?" He looked at everyone. Kojima Hiko was the first to lower his head, and then Shingo Fujioka also lowered his head silently, as did the others.
"That's it!" the man said, "The incident will be kept strictly confidential. I don't want to hear that anyone is exposed. If so, you can die to apologize!"
"Hi!" Everyone nodded.
The Tanaka's disaster only occupied a small space in the news that day. It was said that the ship malfunctioned and all crew members were killed.
The family members of the crew requested that the search and rescue operations continue, but were rejected outright. An event that should have awakened the world just disappeared into thin air.
…
Somewhere in Sakura, some big shots are still discussing this matter.
"There are more and more mutated creatures in the sea, and something will happen sooner or later!"
“Reduce fishing operations in nearby waters!”
"Just mutate, they are nothing more than some deformed creatures. Arrange some whalers and patrol ships to hunt them down!"
"Compared to our economic problems, this is a small matter!"
To them, mutated creatures hurting people is the same as wild beasts hurting people. But we must not let anyone mention it as a pollution problem!
The economic problems plaguing them are now even more serious.
"Last year, China made breakthroughs in several technologies, including metal smelting, industrial manufacturing, automobiles, etc. Our related industries have been severely affected! If this continues, our economy will decline on a large scale!" said one person.
"It's not just us, it's similar in several other countries."
"Several of our measures have not been effective."
"We cannot compete with them with our strength alone!" one of them said, "The Lantern Kingdom has sent us an invitation. In two months, a seven-nation meeting will be held to discuss economic issues!"
"This time, we will step up our efforts!"
The meeting will also be attended by John, Gaul, Maple Leaf, Kangaroo, etc. The earth-shaking changes in the past year have given them a strong sense of crisis, so all members of this meeting called by Eagle Sauce are very active.
…
He Xingzhou didn't know what happened at sea. Even if he knew, he thought it was normal. It has been so long, there must be some Zerg species that have evolved faster, and they will appear more frequently.
"General Engineer He, you are welcome to visit. Our institute is ready!" He Xingzhou has arrived at the Institute of Microelectronics. After several hours of communication and handover, he met the two team leaders.
One of them, Luo Zhenhai, an old expert in his sixties, is an expert in the field of microelectronics, one of the academicians of the Academy of Sciences, and the second-level executor of the Xuanwu Project!
There is also a female academician in her late fifties, Yan Rui, who is an expert from the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology of the Academy of Sciences, an academician of the Academy of Engineering, and a second-level executor of the Xuanwu Project!
The Institute of Optoelectronics Technology of the Academy of Sciences is in the southwest region. He Xingzhou had already communicated with it a year ago, and they had formed a team to cooperate with He Xingzhou's plan.
"We have to do something on the first day of the new year. Thank you all for your hard work." He Xingzhou shook hands with them.
"It's all for the Xuanwu Project, not to mention hard work." Luo Zhenhai smiled, "Then let's start right away?"
"We and the equipment are all ready!" Yan Rui said.
"Yeah!" He Xingzhou immediately started working with them.
He first connected with the team on related technologies and research on smart glasses.
A researcher said: "We have collected information from research across the country. Regarding smart glasses, we can create a basic frame with performance similar to that of mobile devices such as smartphones currently on the market."
He Xingzhou took a closer look and said, "There are still some flaws."
"First, the chip cannot be manufactured by oneself. This issue is very important."
"Second, optical technology is backward. High-end lenses used in smart glasses need to be imported!"
"Third, VR and AR technology cannot keep up. They are only the most rudimentary VR and AR technologies."
"As for the AI system, my team has completed it."
"The problem of chips cannot be solved in a short time." Luo Zhenhai said helplessly. Everyone knows about this problem, and research institutes all over the country are studying it.
"Yeah." He Xingzhou also understood, and he said: "Then our short-term goal is to improve optical technology, as well as AR and VR technology as soon as possible."
He Xingzhou’s first goal is to manufacture high-end optical lenses.
This thing is very important and can be used for scratch detection on metal, glass, film, wafer and other surfaces, damage detection of chips and silicon wafers, MARK point positioning, glass slicing machines, glue dispensing machines, SMT detection, plate mounting machines Such as industrial precision alignment, positioning, parts confirmation, dimensional measurement, industrial microscopy and other CCD visual alignment, measurement devices and other fields.
Intuitively speaking, the smart glasses or other smart devices he wants to build require high-end optical lenses.
Secondly, the genetic detector that has never been built can also be successfully manufactured if we have an ultra-high-resolution electron microscope.
Going one step further, manufacturing lithography machines, manufacturing chips, and manufacturing lidar also requires this thing!
Most of the high-end manufacturers in this area are concentrated in Sakura Country, Hansi Country, etc.
Fortunately, China is gradually making efforts in this field and has mastered some technologies.
