Chapter 145: This is the meaning of my life, Zhao Keqin!

"What!"

"Little Song has made a new discovery again?"

Dragon Nation, Tian Jian Laboratory.

Director's office.

Elder Zhao, Zhao Keqin, sat weakly in his chair, a bottle of saline hanging by his right hand, dripping away.

A month ago, Elder Zhao fell seriously ill.

He had yet to recover.

For an elder of such advanced age, once a major illness strikes, it often means that life may have already entered its countdown.

Yet even at such a time, Elder Zhao stubbornly came to the research institute to work.

In Elder Zhao's own words, he had never missed a single day of work in his entire life.

Today, naturally, was no exception!

He looked at the list of technologies provided by Song Qi in front of him, blinking blankly.

"This time, it's actually in the field of large civil aircraft?"

"What kind of monster is this kid Song Qi, anyway!"

Upon hearing this news, Elder Zhao was stunned.

The leap from fighter jets to helicopters was something Elder Zhao could still understand; after all, he himself had entered the fighter jet research field from the helicopter research field.

Although there was a huge gap between the two, they still had some commonalities.

But civil technology and helicopters or fighter jets—that really had nothing to do with each other at all...

The only relationship between them was, perhaps, that they could both fly...

Looking at the research Song Qi had produced, Elder Zhao was astonished to find that even he could only understand the surface of it!

If someone said these technologies were brought back from the future, Elder Zhao would probably believe it...

What shocked Elder Zhao the most was why this kid Song Qi was so prolific!

Others were thousand-person research teams, spending ten years to sharpen one sword!

Only then could they achieve a breakthrough!

But this kid Song Qi, relying solely on his own strength, in just two months, in just three months!

He had produced two great works that could be called epoch-making!

Such an achievement could perhaps no longer be described by the word "genius" alone for Song Qi.

"Monster" might be more appropriate...

Elder Zhao sighed silently.

Vaguely, he seemed to have realized that his own era had ended.

And the era belonging to Song Qi had completely begun.

Elder Zhao glanced at the assistant beside him.

He said softly, "Let the researchers in the institute also study these materials carefully!"

"Strive to successfully reverse-engineer the technologies mentioned within as soon as possible."

"The technologies here are very likely the key for the Dragon Nation to overtake the Free Nation in the field of technology!"

Elder Zhao said this with such conviction that even the assistant was slightly taken aback.

Clearly, he had not expected this.

That Elder Zhao would value the technology provided by this Song Qi so highly.

"Yes!"

"I will arrange it right away!"

"I will definitely complete the task!"

The assistant nodded quickly and was about to walk out of the room to carry out Elder Zhao's orders.

Just as he turned around.

Elder Zhao's voice came again.

"Wait a moment!"

"How is the situation with the new fighter jet production line now?"

"It should be about three months now, right..."

Mentioning the new fighter jet, Elder Zhao's cloudy eyes seemed to brighten significantly.

"Elder Zhao!"

"According to news from the military factory, the new fighter jet has basically finished assembly!"

"It is expected that in three days, a maiden test flight will be conducted near the Northern Military Region!"

"To collect various data!"

"Striving to enter active service as soon as possible!"

"Good!"

Hearing this news, Elder Zhao actually clapped his hands in excitement.

His greatest wish in this life was to see, with his own eyes, the world's most advanced aircraft take off from the soil of the Dragon Nation!

To announce to the whole world!

That the Dragon Nation's fighter jets could also dominate the globe!

And now, this goal was getting closer and closer!

How could Elder Zhao not be stirred by this?

"Three days later, in the Northern Military Region, is it!"

"Little Li! Help me arrange it; three days from now, I must see the new fighter jet take off with my own eyes!"

"And I must also get the first-hand data on all the fighter jet's specifications!"

"Otherwise! I will not be able to die in peace!"

Elder Zhao pouted like a sulking child.

Three months ago, they transported the new fighter jet back to the Tian Jian Research Institute, but unfortunately, in the entire institute, not a single person knew how to fly it!

By the time they had trained a pilot to fly it.

The work on the production line had reached a critical juncture, and there was simply no time to conduct data tests on the No. 0 aircraft Song Qi had built.

Therefore, the work of conducting specific data tests for the new fighter jet.

Had naturally been shelved.

This made Elder Zhao feel as restless as if he were being scratched by a hundred claws.

Now that he could finally get the full set of data for the new fighter jet, how could Elder Zhao keep his heart from racing?

"Alright! Elder Zhao!"

"Why do you always say such unlucky things?"

"You are the national treasure of our Dragon Nation! Talking about death at every turn! What does that look like!"

Secretary Little Li comforted Elder Zhao as if coaxing a child.

Beside him, Elder Zhao still held his neck stiffly, looking as if he would not stop until he achieved his goal.

Secretary Little Li looked at Elder Zhao, a helpless smile appearing on his face.

"Elder Zhao! The weather is turning cold now, and you have just recovered from a major illness..."

"There's no need to go to the test site in person!"

"When the time comes, wouldn't it be enough to just have the people from the Northern Military Region send the first-hand data to you?" ===== CHAPTER 147 =====
