Chapter 96: Copying Spaceships, Robots, and Production Lines

After listening to Qin Hao's idea, Luo Lao smiled slightly and said:

"Your idea is roughly what we had in mind, but the specific details still need to be worked out properly. However, before that, you can first copy these high technologies, letting our scientists study and master them."

"I'll take care of these things!"

Qin Hao nodded.

After the meeting ended, Qin Hao politely declined the invitation to stay for a meal.

Early the next morning, he first went to the Artificial Sun Base, absorbing enough Energy Points.

When he stepped out of the tokamak device, his Energy Points had already exceeded one trillion, taking over thirty minutes.

But just then, the system emitted a prompt tone.

【Ding! Host Energy Points reached one trillion, and will automatically convert to 1 Energy Unit.】

One Energy Unit?

Hearing this new unit name, Qin Hao's eyes lit up; it seemed he could finally say goodbye to the trouble of many zeros.

After replenishing his Energy, he didn't delay but went straight to a military base.

"Comrade Xiao Qin, everything is ready; we're just waiting for you."

Upon entering the base, Academician Qian walked up smiling and said:

"Academician Qian, you've worked hard! I won't say more about other matters; the important thing is to get down to business."

Qin Hao smiled in response.

"The first item is the NS-5 robot and full production line from *Mechanical Public Enemy*."

Qin Hao called up the relevant data and began copying.

【Ding! Consumed 280 billion Energy Points, including two production lines and 500 robots.】

In the next second, they appeared in the spacious hall.

Seeing this, the academics present had their eyes light up.

Such as mechanical arms, conveyor belts, precision welding stations, assembly platforms… each component gleamed with metallic luster, full of the cold beauty of future technology.

"Indeed, high-tech equipment just looks different!"

An academician specializing in machinery sighed in admiration.

Moreover, some academics could no longer contain themselves, rushing forward to touch the cold metal, their eyes filled with fervor.

Qin Hao ignored their astonishment and continued to the next step.

"The second item is the liquid metal robot and production line from *Terminator*."

【Consumed 350 billion Energy Points, including two production lines and 600 liquid metal robots.】

Another second passed, and two more complex production lines suddenly appeared.

And at the end of the production lines, six hundred silver liquid metal robots stood neatly.

They had no facial features, their surfaces as smooth as mercury, exuding an eerie yet powerful aura.

"Is this the liquid metal robot? Does it have programmable self-repair and shape-shifting abilities?"

A materials expert looked at all this, his words extremely excited!

Furthermore, several academics pulled out their pocket notebooks, looking and noting something while muttering to themselves.

Seeing this group of national treasure-level academics behave so uncharacteristically, Qin Hao deeply understood their current feelings.

He cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention.

"Ladies and gentlemen, academics, what comes next is today's grand finale."

He pointed to the reserved area.

"The small alien attack ship from *Independence Day*."

【Consumed 300 billion Energy Points, including five alien warships.】

When these five spacecraft appeared, all the academics present erupted completely.

If the earlier robot production lines gave them surprise, then the alien spacecraft before them gave them shock!

For a long time they couldn't come back to their senses.

"Good! Good! With these few ships as samples, our technology tree has gained a lot, especially that anti-gravity technology, which is most important."

Academician Qian was the first to break the silence.

After saying that, he quickly rushed to the underside of a spacecraft, looking up at the several round devices on the hull, his face flushed with excitement.

Seeing this, the others likewise hurried forward, touching here and looking there.

Their eyes burned with fervor; they wished to immediately dissect them and study every component thoroughly.

Qin Hao watched this scene, not disturbing them. After a long while, all the academics finally calmed down.

"Qian Lao, this contains the full technical data for these equipments; the rest is up to you."

Qin Hao handed a tablet to Qian Bowen, having already transferred all the data into it just now.

"Good!"

Academician Qian received the tablet, holding it carefully in his arms, afraid that a slight mishap might break it.

"By the way, we plan to build our own space warship later; ordinary materials might not meet the requirements, so I'll also copy some vibranium for you to study, hoping you can produce it yourselves."

At this moment, Qin Hao suddenly thought of this issue and spoke up.

"It seems Xiao Qin, you've thought this through thoroughly."

Academician Qian laughed heartily and gladly accepted.

"Let's leave it at that for today; if you need anything, just contact me."

After finishing copying the vibranium, Qin Hao expressed his intention to leave.

"Hmm, I won't see you off."

After Qian Academician exchanged a few polite words, he hurriedly went to research those equipment.

Just as scientists launched frenzied research on these high-tech equipment, a nationwide education reform had already begun.

……

The Ministry of Education held a press conference.

Minister Xiao Guangyi solemnly walked onto the stage, faced dozens of reporters, and announced an unprecedented education reform plan.

「According to national research decision, starting next semester, in the national junior high and senior high school education system, the following four compulsory courses will be added: 」

《Interstellar Navigation》, 《Planetary Science》, 《Foundations of Artificial Intelligence》, and 《Aviation Technology」。」

「Meanwhile, greatly increase the enrollment quotas for aerospace, aviation, artificial intelligence and related majors in universities nationwide, establish special scholarships, and encourage more outstanding students to devote themselves to the great cause of exploring the universe。」

As soon as this news came out, domestic and foreign public opinion erupted in an uproar.

Yingjiang Guo, the Ugly Agreement Times' front-page headline wrote in huge font:

「Crazy Eastern Giant Dragon: Are they trying to send textbooks into space? 」

Western media were filled with doubt and incomprehension.

「What exactly does Yanhuang Guo want to do? Do they intend to let every citizen become an astronaut? 」

「Is their technology really advanced enough to popularize interstellar travel? This is utterly unimaginable! 」

However, in stark contrast to the shock and suspicion abroad, the youth within Yanhuang Guo were completely ignited.

「Holy shit! Holy shit! Our undertaking is the sea of stars! This time it's not just a slogan, it's a must-know exam topic written into the textbook! 」

「Brothers, don't stop me! I'm going to change my application from finance to space physics right now! 」

「Haha! My son will start junior high next year; when he comes home and asks me, 'Dad, how do I solve this gravity slingshot calculation problem, how should I answer?' Waiting online, really urgent! 」

「Upstairs, sign your son up for a cram class; the subject is called 《How to Become a Qualified Space Fleet Member」。」

The heat of online discussion directly exploded all social media platforms.

And the real-world reaction was even more exaggerated.

Within three days of the notice's release, the phones of admissions offices at universities nationwide were blown up, with countless senior high students and parents inquiring about the feasibility of switching majors.

The number of applicants for the new subjects exceeded five million.

An unprecedented aerospace craze swept the nation.
