Chapter 420 Modification of the Swift
In the No. 3 Port Maintenance Shop, Wang Yang looked at the mountains of materials in front of him, including steel, copper, aluminum alloys, bundles of wires, and some unknown materials. A smile appeared on his face.
"System, open the modification plan!" he ordered.
"Okay, Master!" As the voice fell, a virtual panel appeared in front of you.
The modification plan is listed in detail on the panel:
Nuclear power and spiral device enhancement: After enhancement, the speed of the Ohio-class nuclear submarine can be increased to five times!
Ocean sonar shielding device: After installing this device, nuclear submarines can avoid being detected by the sonar of nearby nuclear submarines in the ocean. Unless they meet head-on, the other party will never be able to detect it!
Artificial intelligence operating system: Nuclear submarines usually require the cooperation of multiple people to drive them, but if they are only used for navigation, they can be operated by one person. Just set the autopilot route and AI will take care of executing it. However, in the event of an emergency, it may be difficult for one person to handle it, so an artificial intelligence operating system is required. Just give the command verbally and the AI will execute it quickly!
Wang Yang looked at the modification plan in front of him and murmured to himself: "The order of modification previously determined is that the marine sonar shielding device is given priority, and the nuclear power and artificial intelligence operating system are placed last. Okay, let's start now. Make a marine sonar shielding device!”
Wang Yang didn’t hesitate for a moment, turned around and walked towards the maintenance station not far away.
After he sat down, he picked up the A4 paper and thick pencil beside him and started sketching.
Although he already has complete modification knowledge in his mind, drawing it is more intuitive and can reduce the possibility of mistakes.
After all, this is a modified nuclear submarine, an important piece of equipment that will operate underwater, and he also relies on it to return to his motherland, so there must be no mistakes!
In the afternoon, Wang Yang finally completed the sketch of the ocean sonar shielding device.
With the sketch in hand, he felt clearer.
Of course, he will destroy all these sketches after the installation is completed and will never leave them to the United States.
“Let’s get started!” Wang Yang sat on the chair, stretched and said.
His eyes immediately turned to the lathe equipment area not far away.
There are several different types of equipment that he will use to create the devices needed for the modification plan.
Of course, these equipment alone are not enough. He also needs other production equipment.
Therefore, in the subsequent manufacturing process, he may need to leave the No. 3 Port Maintenance Factory and go to other places to process parts. However, these are all things for later.
Time flies, and more than twenty days have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the No. 3 maintenance shop, with the sound of "boom, boom, boom", a large crane was lifting a huge irregular object, slowly moving towards the front end of the Swift. It is no exaggeration to describe the appearance of this object as "strange and rugged"!
Wang Yang stood on the lifting platform, holding a precision remote control the size of a shoe box in his hand. This is the key to controlling the large crane.
He is carefully controlling the crane and slowly moving the "Ocean Sonar Shielding Device" towards the Swift.
Tens of seconds later, the device was accurately lifted to the predetermined position.
After Wang Yang carefully confirmed that it was correct, he used the remote control to command the crane to slowly lower the device.
There happened to be a gap in the Swift, and this device fit perfectly into it!
"Boom!" With a dull metal impact, the device was firmly placed on the Swift.
Seeing this, Wang Yang stopped the operation of the crane, because this meant that the device had been installed in place!
He breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly excited: "The next step is to fix the marine sonar shielding device and connect the wiring. Once the wires are connected, the device is completed, and then you can move on to the next modification project!" This made him distant. The completion of the Swift and the day of returning home is one step closer!
Time flies, and more than half a month has passed.
On this day, in the White House conference room, beside the rectangular conference table, the president was sitting on the main seat, and both sides of the conference table were filled with senior officials.
Charles, Brody and others are also among them. The faces of each of them are full of seriousness, because the DN Asia region and China are currently negotiating trade markets, and there is a faint momentum to build a DN Asia trade circle.
This trade circle will abandon U.S. dollar transactions, and the U.S. dollar is the international currency. This move will undoubtedly touch the sensitive nerves of U.S. monetary interests. How can U.S. senior officials sit idly by?
At this moment, they are gathering together to discuss countermeasures and try to sabotage this plan.
"Let's all talk about our opinions!" the president said with a frown. He was also thinking deeply, but at this time brainstorming is the best way.
“I think we can support a group of militants in the DN Asia region and let them disrupt the situation.” A senior official suggested.
“Well, this is a good idea!” Another senior official agreed, “Supporting a group of terrorists is enough to make several small countries in Asia very anxious and have no intention of talking about establishing a trade circle with China! ”
This senior official believes that this plan is feasible. After all, it is not difficult for the United States to support terrorists against the local government.
However, Minister of State Xavier Taylor shook his head and expressed disapproval: "Things are not that simple. From the intelligence point of view, small countries in Asia really want to establish a trade circle with China. This must be proposed by China. Therefore, even if we secretly support terrorists, we will not be able to change the determination of the leaders of small countries, but may attract their attention and regard this as an obstacle to the trade circle plan. , thus sending a large number of military forces to eliminate the terrorists we support."
Xavier gave his own analysis. After hearing this, Air Force General Charles James felt that it made sense and agreed: "I agree with Secretary Taylor's view that this plan is not feasible."
Subsequently, several senior officials also expressed their opposition. : "I don't think it's feasible either!"
"Well, I don't agree with it either."
In the eyes of those senior officials who objected, if the leaders of small Asian countries are determined to If we establish a DN Asia trade circle with China, this plan will not work at all. Judging from the information currently available, those leaders are likely to be inclined to establish a trade circle.
The remaining senior officials either frowned in thought or thought that this plan could still be tried, but more people thought that the views of Charles and others were more reasonable and that this plan was not feasible at all.
“Let’s put this plan aside for now. Do you have any other ideas?” the president asked after thinking for a moment.
He admitted that this method is indeed not perfect, but if there is no better plan, he will still consider adopting this method. It is better than doing nothing and watching China establish a DN Asia trade circle. Because once a trade circle is established, the circulation of their country's currency, the U.S. dollar, in Asian countries will be seriously hindered. For them, this is tantamount to losing a huge piece of cake. How can they accept such a result?
Next, several people proposed different solutions, including immediately visiting the leaders of major Asian countries, selling weapons at preferential prices, helping them with infrastructure construction, etc., but they were all rejected one by one. , because those options are not feasible.
The discussion became more and more intense, and there were even quarrels on the conference table.
Of course, this is not uncommon.
When opinions differ, quarrels are inevitable. Everyone hopes that others will adopt their own opinions.
The president frowned,
He did not immediately stop the debate on the conference table, but fell into deep thought, looking for a solution.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind!
Those eyes full of wisdom brightened instantly.
He then tapped the table with his fingers, and the sound of "dong dong" made everyone quiet.
Sure enough, there was an instant silence around the conference table, and all senior officials turned their attention to the president.
The president greeted everyone's gaze with a smile and slowly said: "I have thought of an excellent way."
"?"
The senior officials all had doubts in their eyes.
Charles couldn't wait to ask: "What method?"
"We can hold a military exercise around China's waters!" The president's eyes were full of smiles, "China's strength is far Compared with small countries such as DN Asia, this trade circle is dominated by China. Therefore, if China takes the initiative to attack us during our military exercises, it will be their fault. Once a war starts, they will lose!
< br>On the other hand, if China does not launch an attack on us, what will those small countries in Asia think? "
The president paused deliberately when he said this. He knew that the people here were all smart people, and they would naturally understand what he meant without saying anything.
Charles was already cheering up.
He followed the president's words and said excitedly: "They will think that the United States dares to conduct military exercises at the door of China, but China is indifferent. Is it because it is afraid of the United States? Then if we establish a trade circle with them What should I do if I offend the United States and be targeted by the United States? "Yes, that's right! They will think so and hesitate to follow China to establish a trade circle!" the president said with a smile.
The senior officials here have also thought of this.
They were equally excited and felt that this plan was far superior to the previous plan to support terrorists.
"I support this plan!" Xavier was the first to express his stance.
"I support it too!" Admiral Brody Smith followed closely.
After Charles also said "support", he smiled again: "It suddenly occurred to me that in addition to solving the current problem, this solution has another benefit!"
"Oh? What did you think of?" the president asked curiously.
Other senior officials also looked at Charles with curiosity on their faces.
Charles said with a smile: "This benefit is related to Wang Yang!
Wang Yang is an extremely outstanding scientific researcher. I believe everyone knows this."
Everyone was silent, Indeed!
He had no experience with F22 or a photolithography machine, but he was able to repair it.
Moreover, it is said that nuclear submarines have also entered a critical stage of modification and upgrade.
His scientific research ability is really amazing!
But, what do you mean it's related to him?
Charles continued:
“He became an American citizen, which made everyone in China very angry.
If we conduct military exercises outside Chinese waters this time , and China did not attack us, it means that China is very afraid of us, even if they are angry, they will not dare to confront us!
That’s what I call a benefit! "
Hearing this, everyone took a deep breath and suddenly realized.
A look of surprise and excitement appeared on their faces!
"That makes sense! ”
“Indeed! ”
"..."
Several senior officials agreed.
China has developed rapidly in recent years, both in terms of technology and economy. From the perspective of countries around the world, there is a faint tendency to catch up with the United States!
Now, there is such an excellent opportunity to let the whole world see China's fear, how can they not be excited?
"Yes." The president also nodded in agreement, "We took away Wang Yang and went to their sea areas for military exercises. They did not dare to do anything to us. This is enough to show that China is afraid of us!"< br>
Although the president is not sure whether China will take action, if China takes action first, they will be at a disadvantage. Once a war starts, they will lose and a trade circle will naturally not be established.
But if there is no war, the result will be as they expected.
So, no matter whether there is a war or not, China is the loser!
The president knows this very well.
And he also believes that the senior officials here also understand this.
Therefore, he did not waste any more time, raised his right hand and said: "Let's vote by a show of hands. Do you agree to implement this plan?"
"I agree!" A senior official raised his hand and said.
“I agree!”
“I agree!”
“…”
Charles, Xavier and others also raised their right hands in agreement.
Soon, the plan was unanimously approved.
The president smiled and said: "Okay, that's settled."
After that, he looked at Brody Smith again, "Brody, let this matter be handed over to Let's do it for you!
Well, you can also call Japan and ask them if they are willing to join.
If they join, countries around the world can see the appeal of our country! "
The president added with a smile.
"Yes, I understand! "Brody responded.
He knows the president's intentions, and he also thinks they make sense!
......
The scene changes.
Wang Yang’s side.
At this moment, he is sitting on a chair to rest.
He has just completed the modification of the spiral device. Next, only the installation of nuclear power and artificial intelligence operating system is left!
In front of the maintenance desk, Wang Yang was sitting on a chair with his legs on the table. Holding the phone in his hand, he was browsing the Twitter forum.
What he saw was the post about China and the Asian countries wanting to establish a trade circle!
After reading, he frowned slightly, "I want to create a trade circle that does not use US dollars to trade, so as to prevent the United States from exchanging paper money for resources... Although the idea is good, the United States will never sit idly by and do nothing. It will definitely Find a way to stop this..."
Wang Yang knew in his heart that this matter touched the interests of the United States, and those Americans would never agree!
After thinking about this question for a while, Wang Yang shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
For him, the most important thing now is to complete the modification of Swift and then return to China!
