Chapter 45: Which technology is better depends on actual combat verification
Back at the mother base, Shi Tingfen followed Long Fei off the Albion 1 mothership.
Shi Tingfen looked at the base built in the meteorite in surprise, which was shared by the mercenary group and the factory.
In addition to seeing many staff members repairing battleships and mobile suits, they also saw many battleships and transport ships coming in and out.
The factory found that many manufacturing machines and instruments are fully automatic and completely controlled by a system, and the staff are only responsible for adjusting and handling some details.
After observing for a while, Shi Tingfen asked Long Fei: "Old classmate, the manufacturing machines and control systems of your base factory, as well as these warships and mobile suits, were all designed and manufactured by you, right?"
"Yes, I made it all by myself."
"Hey, hey, old classmate, you are too scary."
Shi Tingfen suddenly remembered that when she was studying, her old classmate used to participate in some machine competitions or software control competitions. Not only did she win the championship every time, but many companies even wanted to buy these technologies from him. , but the old classmate unilaterally refused, and directly handed over all these technologies to the company of his three sisters.
Although I am not familiar with military things, I saw that the standard equipment used by the mercenary regiment of my old classmate is much more advanced than that of my country's army.
Sakeqi came in front of Long Fei.
Long Fei introduced the two women to each other.
Shi Tingfen begged Long Fei: "Old Tong...ah no, boss, can I stay and work here? I don't want to transfer to another place to work."
"Okay, Sakeqi, you can arrange it."
"No problem, boss."
After Long Fei watched the two girls leave the scene, he went to the Gundam workshop alone.
Long Fei looked at the Reaper Gundam and Thunder Gundam which were still semi-finished products, as well as the late-made Aegis Gundam, Heavy Gunner Gundam, and Storm Gundam.
The factory manager Simmons came to Long Fei and said, "Boss, the scheduled time for the production of these Gundams may be delayed."
"Hasn't Sakechi allocated funds to you these days?"
"The money has already been allocated yesterday, but the materials to be purchased may take a while, because some materials cannot be purchased on the open side, and must be purchased on the black market. These will take time."
"Well, I understand that."
"And boss, the Reaper Gundam you developed is coated with special paint to reduce radar reflection waves. This special paint will take a little time. The interference generating device equipped on the fuselage, as long as we have some materials, we can complete it."
"Well, what else?"
"Thunder Gundam's mirage device may be successfully manufactured in the past few days, and then it can be put into testing."
"okay, I get it."
"Boss, can I ask you a question?"
"Just ask?"
"Reaper Gundam and Thunder Gundam both seem to be mobile suits using sneak attack tactics. Why do the two Gundams use different techniques and devices?"
"Then which of these two device technologies do you think is better?"
"This..." Simmons scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "I don't know."
"I don't know, which of the two technologies is better? It can only be verified by putting it into actual combat."
"That's right, as long as we staff are responsible for doing our part, let the frontline personnel verify whether it can be used."
Long Fei looked at the two Gundams of Reaper and Thunder that were being manufactured by the Restoration Progress Project.
In recent years, Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company has sold all kinds of arms in short supply, and has made countless profits. It is no problem to manufacture 1 or 2 sets per month.
But recently, Long Fei had a sudden brainstorm and directly manufactured and developed nearly 10 Gundams, which suddenly made Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company embarrassed, and would lose all the business of Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company for several months.
At that time, the salaries of the employees will not be paid, so Sa Keqi directly refuses to increase the investment and maintain the monthly allocation, otherwise Sa Keqi will resign directly.
Fortunately, Yue Yangchun's revenge against the Xieya Pirates was timely, and the money and supplies they collected solved the embarrassment of the Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company.
Otherwise, Sakeqi will get mad at Long Fei, the boss, and how to explain to the employees if he can't pay the salary.
Long Fei thought about whether the Tianyi mercenary group should also invest in the money invested in the production of Gundam in the future.
The Tianyi Mercenary Group's business is also good, and they have made a lot of money. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are making a lot of money every day.
Long Fei returned to his office, called Li Jiaming to his office, and discussed the matter with him.
Li Jiaming didn't have any objection, and he also felt that the Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company couldn't keep investing the money in it. All the Gundams were used by the Tianyi Mercenary Group, and none of the Gundams produced were sold. The bottomless pit of this project is indeed unfair to the Tianyi Arms Manufacturing Company, Li Jiaming feels that the Tianyi Mercenary Group really should invest in it.
"Then will this affect your manufacturing of other battleship MS and other munitions?"
"It won't."
"That's good, I don't want the end to be inconsistent."
Li Jiaming thought to himself: "The boss hopes that you don't just want us to invest a lot of money in this project." Although Li Jiaming said this in his heart, he didn't dare to say it out, fearing that he would hurt the boss.
Because no matter which Gundam the boss makes, he will be the first to go to test it. He can see that the boss has a special preference for the Gundam he designed.
Although the money spent on the development and manufacture of the Gundam is a bottomless pit, but it cannot be denied that the battlefield where the Gundam is invested can greatly enhance the advantage on the battlefield.
Although it costs a lot of money, Li Jiaming is also very supportive. The more Gundams to be produced, the better.
Li Jiaming reported something important to Long Fei at this time: "By the way, boss, there is one thing I want to report to you personally."
"whats the matter?"
"It's like this, boss, we have a fleet. We once escorted the mission and returned to the mother base. We accidentally discovered that a spaceship landed on a huge meteorite."
"What's so special about this spaceship?"
"What's special is that the shape of the spacecraft looks very old. When our personnel entered the investigation, they found that the equipment in the ship was also very old. It seemed that the technology was at least sixty or seventy years ago. Then our personnel went deep During the investigation, it was found that the people in the ship had been dead for a long time, and the space suits they were wearing were also designed 60 or 70 years ago."
Long Fei felt very curious when he heard this, and continued to listen to the commander-in-chief's report.
"Furthermore, all those who died on the ship were investigated. Some committed suicide collectively, and some committed suicide in their own rooms. Every crew member who died had a gun by his side, and each gun lost one bullet."
After hearing this, Long Fei asked curiously, "Why did they commit suicide?"
"After investigation, their spacecraft had an accident, the engine exploded, and they could not return or go to the rescue site. What's worse, when the spacecraft was drifting, they created that meteorite. Without rescue, The crew committed suicide in desperation to escape."
"Didn't they put out a distress call?"
"After investigation, they did send a distress signal with the backup power supply after the engine exploded, but the spacecraft was drifting again during the distress signal. After calculation, the distance between the impact on the meteorite was at least more than 500,000 kilometers, and it is estimated that the search and rescue forces at that time failed to search and rescue."
After Long Fei heard this, he closed his eyes, thought for a while, and then asked Li Jiaming: "Commander-in-Chief, you just said that the spaceship is very old, so do you think that old spaceship was originally Where are they headed? Where did they come from?"
"After our investigation, they came from Jupiter."
"Jupiter!" Long Fei jumped up directly. In the past, many people went to Jupiter to develop, but for more than 50 years, they have not had any contact with the colonial circle and the earth circle. No one knows how Jupiter has developed. .
"The commander-in-chief, did you find anything else when you investigated that spaceship?"
"Yes, we found a lot of metal containers in the spacecraft. After investigation, we found that these metals did not come from the Earth sphere and the colonial sphere. It can be said that they are unknown metals."
"Then Commander-in-Chief, how did you deal with it?"
"At present, I have sent some people to stay behind, and I have also sent a crisis investigation team to continue the in-depth investigation to avoid any danger."
"The commander-in-chief arranges it, and I will go and investigate it myself."
"Boss, this is very dangerous, let's wait..."
Before Li Jiaming could finish speaking, Long Fei directly raised his hand to stop: "Commander-in-Chief, I have already made a decision, there is no need to say any more, just arrange it immediately."
"Yes, boss."
