Chapter 103: All kinds of whimsical designs and ideas!

Since he had such an idea, Li Mingyang naturally could not ignore it.

One must know that wherever you are, wanting to gain benefits is closely tied to one's status.

For example, Li Mingyang now, if he were merely Wang Qiang's student, he would receive some attention, but overall it would be just that.

But if Li Mingyang could show something different in this large-scale research project, even make a key contribution……

Then Li Mingyang's status in this research team would rise dramatically, possibly even catching up to the treatment of his own teacher Wang Qiang.

After all, this is where they research the Water Molecule Bomber; everyone's status depends not on seniority but on personal ability and contribution.

Currently, all guest personnel at the base are stuck by the engine problem, and if Li Mingyang had a certain solution.

Even if this method cannot directly solve all the engine's problems, as long as it can push the research forward a bit.

Then Li Mingyang's status in the base would rise like a rocket, undoubtedly a great help to his studies this time.

Because with such a status, Li Mingyang will surely obtain sufficient authority to participate in all items of the bomber project.

He can freely browse and reference all details of the bomber, which is absolutely a huge opportunity for him.

"The difficulties can be said to be various, after all a big project like the bomber is not simple."

"As the core engine technology of the bomber, it's even more complicated, but if we must summarize, it's actually just one point."

"That is, the problem that existing material strength cannot meet."

"In fact, the most critical factor limiting current industrial and technological development is not various technologies, but rather the most unnoticeable material problem."

"If we could now obtain a metal like the vibranium seen in sci-fi movies, for example in Marvel films, it would not be an exaggeration at all to say."

"It might take at most ten years, or even less, for our civilization to leap directly to a Level 1 civilization."

"Even reaching a higher level is not impossible, and we humans need not be confined to this small Earth."

"In about ten years, we could explore the neighboring star system! For example, the famous Proxima Centauri Trisolaran system!"

"At the very least, we could develop the resources of each planet within the solar system!"

At the end, Wang Qiang's face was full of emotion, while Li Mingyang almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

He really didn't expect his own teacher to be such an old man, nor that he usually stays trendy and even watches sci-fi movies.

"Moreover, it's that kind of Marvel superhero-style nonsense sci-fi!"

"Although one must admit that Marvel movies do have their merits, such as special effects, and the arrangement of plot and scenes."

"But the armies and so-called sci-fi equipment inside, even Li Mingyang, an earthling native, can't help laughing at them."

"Using the world's and even the universe's most cutting-edge technology, yet when war actually breaks out, everyone still engages in melee combat, the most primitive fighting."

"This damn nonsense, what else could it be?"

"For example, in Avengers 4, Thanos already brought his spaceship to Earth, yet that huge ship merely hovered in midair, becoming a live target."

"Like Thanos, who holds the title of cosmic overlord, if he truly wanted to seize the Infinity Gauntlet, he truly wanted to wipe out these ants on Earth."

"If he really wanted to reshape a brand-new universe as he said, why not just fire a star‑erasing cannon in space?"

"Don't tell me such a power that can dominate the whole universe can't even destroy a single planet."

"Don't laugh, kid; although many things in sci-fi movies are quite nonsense, we must admit they often can bring us some inspiration."

"After all, their ideas and creativity are actually pretty good, and when applied to reality they truly have some practical value!"

"So for researchers to watch sci-fi movies and such is simply the most normal thing!"

It seemed he had seen Li Mingyang's thought; Wang Qiang over there still gave a serious explanation of two sentences—if he hadn't explained, it would have been fine, but once he explained, Li Mingyang wanted to laugh even more.

Because he suddenly recalled a viral meme from his previous life online: at first we crossed the river by feeling the eagle's way, but later the eagle was plucked bald.

Later we just crossed the river by feeling the eagle's sci-fi movies, and in the end even the English side hardly put out any sci-fi films……

Originally I thought it was just a joke, but after seeing my teacher's performance now, Li Mingyang genuinely feels that such a thing might actually happen to some extent.

After all, even a support‑teaching teacher, as a top Academician, the big shot Wang Qiang behaves like this, let alone those youngsters with bigger imaginations.

For example, the current Li Mingyang has even started thinking: after this project ends, should he also go look for more sci-fi movies to watch?

Other things aside, at least it can give him some inspiration and ideas, letting him add a few more thoughts to his future work designs.

"No, how could I have the idea of mocking the teacher? I just think this method is really good."

"When I have the chance and time later, I will also study it well; maybe it will really give me some good ideas and inspiration."

By the time he finished saying this, even Li Mingyang couldn't help but adopt a somewhat serious tone.

As already said before, humanity lacks not various ideas and techniques.

The reason humanity's technology is limited is mainly due to material problems.

And Li Mingyang himself has a premonition that the Shock Burst Engine technology he obtained this time contains much material; the technology is estimated to be applicable in many areas.

Perhaps if he just studies these sci-fi movies well, even some games with sci-fi backgrounds, they could really provide him with plenty of inspiration and ideas.

After all, many designs and settings may look strange, but when placed in real life they turn out to be surprisingly applicable.
