Elysian Space World, the evening of December 31, 2155, the headquarters of the Star Group in New Baghdad.
It has been less than half a year since the establishment of the group. Through the joint efforts of the three major departments, the influence of the Star Group in the world of Elysium has surpassed that of Armadanai Company. It is recognized by people around the world as the first and possibly the best company in the 22nd century. The last giant company that is reasonable and has a conscience.
In order not to disappoint the group's hundreds of millions of supporters, but also to achieve better development in the future. On the last day of 2155, all the real management of the Star Group who knew the existence of the multiverse gathered together to discuss the development plan for 2155.
Participants included Yang Tianyi, chairman, sole owner and supreme leader of the group; Harland Mensah, CEO, interim head of the group's engineering department; Armand Hopkins, director of the New York laboratory and head of the scientific research department; Daniel Ramsay, the head of the military department and the military chief of the Army Department; Edward Hughes, the Grand Duke of the Western Region of the Kingdom of Leon and the regent.
And the head of Fenhabennis branch in the star world, Lachish Rat Man Garno, whom we haven’t seen for a long time. He doesn’t have a surname because he has chosen to abandon his unbearable past after more than ten years of slave life-this can make him He is more relaxed in dealing with people and does not need to consider whether his actions will bring disgrace to his family that may no longer exist.
"And I!"
When Yang Tianyi smiled and nodded to the senior executives attending the meeting, a gentle and smart voice sounded from the middle of the conference room. Along with it, a graceful female figure slowly walked out from the circular round table and came to stand behind Yang Tianyi's chair, looking very well-behaved.
"Haha, I can't forget you."
Harland touched his fiery red curly hair, smiled evilly and said: "Xingshu, your intelligence is really getting higher and higher. Have you considered mentioning the allocation for the Engineering Department next quarter?"
"As far as I know, the budget received by the Engineering Department is already the highest in the entire group. If you want to increase the budget, Mr. Harland will have to take money from the pockets of the Research Department and the Military Department."
Following Xingshu's sweet voice, Harland glanced at the two department heads who were staring at him closely at the round table, smiled awkwardly, and stopped mentioning the additional budget.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I declare that the group's 2154 annual summary meeting has officially begun."
After scanning the crowd in the conference room, Yang Tianyi turned on the signal shielding device in the conference room and announced the start of the meeting.
"As the saying goes, technology is the first driving force for the development of the group. Let us ask Mr. Armand to explain to us the results achieved by the scientific research department in the past six months."
"my pleasure."
After the warm applause, this talented scientist with seven doctorate degrees stood up, bowed slightly to everyone present, and activated the holographic projector in the center of the round table to assist him in delivering his somewhat boring "popular science lecture."
"First of all, I would like to thank the Chairman for his forward-looking vision. It is precisely because of this that the Group's focus on the scientific research department is always the first priority, no matter where it is. This can be seen from the This is reflected in the group’s behavior of attracting talents from around the world and acquiring private research institutes.”
"Thanks to the various advanced technologies you have come up with, I dare to say that even if the countries and consortiums around the world have a certain level of technological reserves, our Qunxing Group will still surpass them in civilian technology by twenty to thirty years, and in military technology Shanggeng has a lead of at least fifty years."
"Especially after Ms. Dominique Monote, the former head of R&D department of Armadanax, was successfully recruited to join the group's scientific research department, I have to say that if I hadn't joined the group earlier than Ms. Monote Some, maybe the position of the person in charge will be given to her."
In order to make his somewhat empty words more convincing, Armand tapped the embedded screen on the table in front of him, allowing him to play the holographic image he had prepared in advance for everyone in the conference room to watch.
"This is a list of various scientific research results obtained by the Scientific Research Department in the past six months. Because the derivative technology is too complicated, I will choose a few of the most representative ones to focus on explaining them here."
In Armand's hour-long personal show that followed, he said that under the instructions of the chairman, the scientific research department divided the many technologies that had been acquired or were about to be acquired into physics, sociology, and science according to the classification of the star world. Three major fields of engineering.
Physics includes computing technology, force field manipulation technology, and particle physics; sociology includes new world theory, statecraft, biology, and military theory; and engineering includes materials science, propulsion mechanics, aerospace technology, and industrial technology.
Although it seems a bit hasty to put the vast number of technologies and theories into these eleven small branches so simply, in order to adapt to the science and technology system of the star world and the rewards and technologies obtained from time to time through the system, the scientific research department had to abolish a large number of original The departments and scientific research branches that planned to join chose to concentrate their limited power and clenched it into fists.
But these fists are not focused on their own. Instead, under the coordination of the Star Hub, hundreds of scientists assist and cooperate with each other in quite a few fields to achieve the best scientific research results.
After half a year of trying, Armand said this model was surprisingly efficient.
"Perhaps this is the scientific system of the interstellar age, simple but not simple."
In just one sentence, he concluded his explanation of the division of labor system of the Scientific Research Department.
Immediately afterwards, Armand gave a detailed report on several technologies that the scientific research department is currently making great efforts.
Among them, take the sixth-generation exoskeleton that is classified into the industrial technology branch of the engineering field. Although the development task of the new exoskeleton was given to the team of the industrial technology branch, during this period, the computing technology branch of the physics field We will also work with the R&D team of the materials science branch in the engineering field to make up for the loopholes and defects that the industrial branch team cannot achieve alone.
Another example is the shipborne large-caliber electromagnetic coil gun that has completed the drawing design and entered the prototype testing stage. This is also inseparable from the collaboration and hard work of the materials mechanics R&D team and the propulsion mechanics R&D team.
Even when Yang Tianyi looked at the coil gun blueprint, the system actually judged that the technology used in the naval gun blueprint had touched the edge of rail gun technology that was more advanced than the coil gun in the world of stars.
After spending more than 100,000 points to optimize the blueprint, when Yang Tianyi sent the new design plan that had been improved beyond recognition by the system to the team responsible for propulsion mechanics.
The team manager, who had just turned fifty but could not even use the medical cabin to save his middle-aged baldness, was so impressed that he said that this was exactly the design he had dreamed of.
Compared with the previous two-stage electromagnetic coil gun developed based on the first-stage mass projector, although it has the advantage of being able to launch larger-mass electromagnetic projectiles, the fly in the ointment is that the projectile speed has not been greatly improved.
In the latest version of the shipborne electromagnetic rail gun design plan, after systematic improvement and optimization and the second creation of the propulsion mechanics team, the new design plan has perfectly combined the electromagnetic coil and the electromagnetic track.
After taking into account the advantages of the coil gun that can launch large-mass projectiles and the rail gun that can launch ultra-high-speed projectiles, under the system's judgment, the three-stage electromagnetic rail gun is expected to be installed on the SGN-1 frigate for on-board experiments. It has surpassed the secondary electromagnetic coil gun in all aspects in terms of advanced level, and its power has been significantly improved.
Therefore, Yang Tianyi can proudly claim that the Qunxing Group's achievements in kinetic energy weapons are no less than some of the middle and low-level civilized empires in the Stars world, and there is even a faint tendency to surpass them.
Unfortunately, the foundation of the group is still too weak, and it has advanced technology but cannot maximize its interests.
At present, the group's naval strength of one intact frigate and two battle-damaged frigates is slightly stronger than the regular navy of the civilized empire, even if the weapons technology used is slightly stronger. Once a war breaks out, the opponent will not use an equal number of frigates to have a fair duel.
What will appear in front of the group fleet at that time will be a fleet composed of dozens or hundreds of frigate-class battleships. They will use their backward but huge mass projectors to break the shields of the group battleships, then tear apart their armor, and finally destroy the hulls. The three completely twisted frigates were sent to the starship graveyard on Fenhabenis for treasure hunters and mercenaries to dismantle at will.
After listening to Armand's report, Yang Tianyi nodded slightly, saying that he already knew what efforts and contributions the scientific research department had made to the development of the group, and implored the scientific research department to continue their efforts in the next year.
Immediately, he turned his head and looked at Harland and Ramsey, who were sitting on his right - his eyes were burning in the slightly dark conference room.
If you don't want this situation to happen to the group and yourself at any time, then it's time for the Engineering Department and the Military Department to show their talents!
