Chapter 292
This couldn't be called a battle at all; it was a complete massacre, and the troops they sent were the ones being slaughtered.
Soon, officials blocked the Chairman’s office, and Secretary Wan hurriedly served tea to everyone.
The Chairman gestured with his hand and said:
"Everyone, drink some tea first. I already know why you are here. This loss is my work error!"
Secretary Wan stood by the side, wanting to speak but stopping. The officials below, however, showed joy; since the Chairman took the blame on himself, things would be easy to handle.
Minister Liu took a step forward and spoke first:
"Chairman, I have also watched the battle video from the scene. This is not a battle on the same level at all. The strength of that giant python completely crushed our troops. To avoid causing unnecessary casualties again, I apply for a nuclear strike."
At this time, Minister Xie stood out and said: "I think we shouldn't use the ultimate weapon. Judging from the battle situation in the Beautiful Country, nuclear strikes didn't kill these giant beasts; instead, because of nuclear pollution, that giant beast even showed some unexpected changes!"
"But if we don't use nuclear weapons, are we supposed to fill the gap with soldiers' lives? Soldiers are people too, and besides, sending people there, other than feeding that giant python, is completely useless."
Minister Liu’s reprimand made these officials lower their heads. At this time, Minister Li jumped out and said:
"Minister Liu, you also know the terrain where the giant python is located, under a valley. Who can guarantee there are no underground rivers or caves below? Can our nuclear strike really be effective?"
Minister Liu crossed his arms and looked down at Minister Li:
"Then what do you suggest?"
"The Transformers in the video delayed that giant python for a long time. I think you have all seen the excellent performance of those two Transformers!"
When Minister Li said this, everyone echoed him; the operation of those Transformers was simply too smooth, like dancing elves.
The Chairman also gave this group of officials a meaningful look. This group of people ran to him early in the morning to put on a show, and their goal was the Transformers.
At this time, Minister Li saw that the atmosphere had reached the right point, so he cleared his throat and continued:
"As far as I know, as long as we send 50 Transformers, we can completely eliminate this giant python."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise. This made Minister Liu unable to help but speak:
"Minister Li, is the data you mentioned true?"
After receiving Minister Li’s affirmative reply, Minister Liu turned his head in pleasant surprise.
"Chairman, I apply to send fifty Transformers to exterminate the giant python!"
Before the Chairman could reply, Minister Li jumped out again to persuade:
"Minister Liu, those Transformers are still on the front line. If we withdraw them to deal with the giant python and suffer losses, it will be difficult. As far as I know, as long as we have that intelligent operating system, ordinary machines can achieve the same effect.
Our machines aren't picky about operators, and we can take this opportunity to strengthen our national power."
Minister Xie also nodded and said: "Indeed, a single flower does not make a spring, while one hundred flowers in full bloom bring spring to the garden. If technology wants to develop, we must break this situation of cherishing one's own broom. The state can give appropriate compensation for requisitioning technology!"
After everyone finished speaking, they looked at the Chairman sitting at the desk.
"You have all finished... performing. Your mouths must be dry, drink some tea first!"
The Chairman almost laughed at the clumsy acting of this group of old guys, but he had already guessed their intention to go to the research institute to demand technology.
Su Ye had previously mentioned these intelligent lives; they couldn't be copied, and they required a master. One mechanical intelligence was bound to one person.
This could ensure to the greatest extent that the Transformers wouldn't be stolen by other countries and used against them.
But right now, the Transformers were clearly not enough. However, the Chairman didn't trust handing them over to these old foxes. As far as he knew, their so-called research center was like a sieve, and previous technology had already been secretly leaked abroad.
"Chairman, at a time like this, who has the heart to drink tea? It's not like everyone is like you, sitting steadily on the fishing platform. We should be thinking of ways to solve it!"
"Oh, Minister Li, do you have an opinion about me?"
Minister Li waved his hand and smiled: "How could I dare? You are the Chairman!"
Looking at his appearance of daring to be angry but not daring to speak, the Chairman tapped the table with his knuckles.
"If you have an opinion, you can say it directly. I won't eat people!
But regarding the Transformers, I still have something to say. Secretary Wan!"
Assistant Wan understood and took out a stack of documents to distribute. Everyone took them and read them, but they were confused.
"Why is the machinery that Neon Heavy Industries is about to put into production the same as yours? Didn't you suspect anything when you saw this document?"
"Perhaps it was imitated based on the Transformers. Our machines were also independently developed based on the Transformers! It's not surprising that they can imitate them!"
A fine "independent development"; they didn't even understand the imitation, the Chairman muttered in his heart.
At this time, Secretary Wan received the Chairman’s signal and spoke:
"Yesterday, National Security secretly captured five researchers who leaked state secrets. They all came from the research center, and they have already confessed to leaking research data abroad."
After finishing, Secretary Wan glanced at Minister Li, which made him tremble with fear.
Minister Li wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and was about to say something when he was interrupted by the Chairman.
"Your research center is to be closed immediately for self-inspection. As for the intelligence, don't even think about it. I don't agree!"
Everyone looked at each other, not expecting that old guy to have been holding back a big move here. The show this morning was performed in vain; it was truly trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice.
After several people left the office, Minister Xie said angrily:
"Damn parasites, we gave them high wages and they still betrayed us. Truly, human greed knows no bounds; people like this should all be shot!"
Minister Liu, who was walking in front, heard Minister Xie’s complaint, stopped, and began to persuade:
"The intelligent core, we can still start from other places."
Hearing Minister Liu’s words, everyone stopped. At this time, Minister Li asked:
"Could it be the same as last time? But that old guy definitely won't agree this time!"
Minister Liu glanced at Minister Li, wondering how this guy managed to reach this position.
"We will start from normal commercial activities. Don't tell me you don't have industries behind you. Old Li’s Fuji Industry, Old Xie’s Black Water Chemical..."
