Chapter 420 Mecha from the Beautiful Country
‘The magical Tianyuan weight loss pill actually made me lose nearly 100 pounds in a month. ’
‘My wife originally weighed 200 kilograms, but now after losing weight, she is simply beautiful. ’
‘Years of beer belly have finally been resolved, long live Jieke Group, long live Tianyuan Slimming Pills. ’
‘I hereby solemnly advise every beautiful Chinese citizen not to buy Tianyuan Weight Loss Pills. This is helping the Jieco Group to destroy world peace and order. We must consciously unite and not be bribed by some small products of the Jieco Group. ’
‘Go away, you have to target the Jieke Group yourself. I only care about my own health. This is the most important thing. ’
‘Jieco Group is a rubbish company. A Tianyuan slimming pill sells for five hundred dollars in our beautiful country, which is much more expensive than countries like China and Mao Xiong. We must resist the price discrimination of Jieco Group. ’
‘Jieke Group is doing business legally in China. Why are the prices so high for you European and American countries that you can’t afford? You should look for more problems within yourself and reflect on yourself. ’
After the launch of Tianyuan Weight Loss Pills, it received a lot of praise on the Internet, and the few who criticized it were drowned in everyone's criticism.
With the popularity of Tianyuan slimming pills, huge sums of money have been made from all over the world.
Europe and the United States are helpless about this, but they are envious and jealous.
With this Tianyuan slimming pill, Jieke Group once again became famous and became a new hot spot around the world.
In the beautiful country, the Tianyuan slimming pills sold locally are more expensive due to smuggling.
Many middle-class people are also very unhappy with their consumption. People are very dissatisfied with this. They once again accused the American government of misbehaving and restricted the products of Jieke Group. As a result, they were forced to buy from the black market at high prices, which invisibly increased the number of people. their burden.
For this reason, many people from beautiful countries organized spontaneously and held demonstrations in beautiful countries.
Ask the beautiful country's government to lift sanctions on Jieco Group so that they can buy affordable products from Jieco Group.
Then, with the participation of a large number of Nicos, they started traditional performing arts. The demonstrations soon turned into smashing, smashing, looting and burning, and zero-dollar shopping sprees began in many cities in the beautiful country.
The American government was so overwhelmed that it could only speak out from the official level.
"The sanctions against the Jieco Group will not be lifted. Our beautiful country is a free and democratic country and will never compromise with extremist organizations like the Jieco Group. To this end, we have announced that we will dispatch an additional infantry battalion to Siam in the near future and increase the number of anti-smuggling police officers at the border to combat the illegal smuggling of the Jieko Group. 》
At the same time, in order to consolidate the confidence of the people, the beautiful country officials once again announced that they have made a major breakthrough in the field of mecha research, and will soon break the Jieke Group's mecha hegemony and break the Jieke Group's monopoly on mechas. The day to expel the Jieko Group.
I don’t know if this news is true or not, but the attention has been diverted well.
Many people in the beautiful country are paying attention to their first mecha and want to know when it will be offline and used in actual combat.
Beautiful country, San Francisco Bay Area, California, Silicon Valley!
This famous technology and Internet mecca is where Boston Dynamics is located.
This company, founded in 1982, is world-famous for its robot manufacturing. Its most famous robot dog is named Spot, which can walk, run, climb stairs, and go up and down slopes.
This company changed hands several times, and was acquired by Google again from Hyundai Motor Company half a year ago. Google took this opportunity to add a new research and development project to Boston Dynamics, the humanoid power mecha, known as Comparing with the biological reproductive equipment of Jieke Group and the tiger-type main battle mecha.
Judien came to this technology company with a senior military executive.
Now he has been promoted to the director of the CIA, managing the beautiful country's external intelligence agents, and has great power.
Boston Dynamics also has financial funding and technical support from the US military and government, and has cooperated with US government departments on many occasions.
In order to cope with the Jieke Group's mecha hegemony, the Beautiful Country has successively allocated more than 80 billion US dollars in funding, which was distributed to many domestic military-industrial complexes for mecha research and development.
Because Boston Dynamics is professional enough, they have also developed humanoid robots. From the perspective of the US military, this research on mechas is a professional counterpart, so one-fifth of the funding falls on Boston Dynamics.
Now that half a year has passed, Judith plans to come over to inspect their research and development results to see if the tens of billions of dollars in funding approved by the state have been used in any practical way.
"Director Judith, General McCann"
A man ran over quickly. His name was Corjero Clayton. He was 52 years old and the head of Boston Dynamics. He had a luxurious background, which was why he got this good job.
"Cojero, how is the progress of your mecha research? Show it to us."
Judith stared at the other party. This surprise inspection was only notified at short notice the day before, and then he brought the top military officials over, even if he didn't want the other party to deceive him.
A few drops of cold sweat broke out on Cogelo's forehead, and he showed a forced smile: "Um. Director Judien, we..."
Judien's eyes gradually became dangerous, and she said: "A while ago, you said that your research had made progress and that you had obtained US$1.2 billion in funding. Don't tell me that no results have been achieved?"
Feeling Judien's gaze, Coggero could only bite the bullet and said to the researchers next to him: "Go and transport our Dreadnought Mecha and Diamond Mecha."
Soon, two mechas were transported out.
One of the mechas is about two and a half meters tall, painted silver, and looks a bit like the large steel suit in the movie. If it weren't for the big bulge on the back, it would still look pretty good.
The other mecha was sixteen meters tall and extremely bloated. Its legs were wheels that were almost as tall as a person, and its body was covered with metal frames and large areas of exposed messy wiring.
"Director Judien, this is our research. The former is a fearless mecha. It uses new aluminum alloy composite materials and weighs only one-third of traditional steel. It meets the need for lightweight while also taking into account good defense."< br>
As Coggero said, some testers walked up to the Dreadnought.
The back of the mecha can be flexibly opened. The tester first stuffed his two feet in, and then bent down and got into the mecha.
Buzz!
The mecha's sensor was in contact with human skin, and the next moment, the mecha suddenly started to move.
With slightly stiff movements, he started to move in front of Judith.
Just this action made Judith frown, and the military representative General McCann couldn't help complaining: "Fuck, this is slower than my grandma walking, and it's too ugly. My soldiers will carry this kind of turtle armor on the battlefield in the future, and the enemy will laugh to death.”
But when the fearless mecha walked, it was emitting a huge humming noise all over its body. Its arched and protruding back was like a turtle shell, which made it possible to turn around, squat, jump, etc. in addition to walking. It was extremely difficult, almost like a polio patient, it was really unbearable to watch.
"General McCann, limited by our energy, can only use battery supply. In order to ensure the endurance of the mecha, the battery reserve is relatively large."
Coggero explained in embarrassment that even if it uses light aluminum alloy, the weight of this two-meter-five-meter-tall mecha is still too high. In order to supply the mecha, only as many batteries can be prepared as possible, so the mecha has to carry a A turtle shell with all battery packs inside.
In addition, limited by transmission and joint technology, the entire mecha moves very stiffly.
During the test, the Dreadnought mecha picked up its weapon and began further testing. It raised an M2 heavy machine gun, aimed it at the target and pulled the trigger. Flames spewed out, bullet casings were thrown, and the huge recoil caused the mecha's arm to rise and the muzzle to move upward. The arm malfunctioned during the violent vibrations, and the entire mecha's arm and right shoulder were stuck.
"Oops, I can't stop."
The face of the tester controlling the mecha changed drastically, he staggered, and the muzzle of the gun began to float randomly.
A round of bullets passed over the heads of General McCann and Judith, causing the two men to lie on the ground for the first time, their faces turned white with fear.
"Idiot, activate the power outage insurance quickly."
Cojero jumped to his feet and cursed, hurriedly reminding the controller.
Ten seconds later, as the power was cut off, the fearless mecha finally stopped.
At the same time, General McCann got up from the ground in a panic, his face filled with anger, and he yelled at Cogelo: "Shit, what a piece of shit mecha you are, you almost killed me just now, such garbage, I will never allow it to appear in the procurement of military products for our army, never allow it.”
Judien looked ugly and said: "This is the individual mecha developed by your Boston Dynamics. I can't see any advantages in it. Its movements are slow and stiff, its failure rate is high, and its defensive capabilities will destroy itself without being hit by the enemy. This kind of mecha is the result of your tens of billions of dollars in research?”
Comparing the Jieko Group's biological reproduction equipment to strengthen the warriors, in Judith's view, comparing the fearless mecha in front of him with the opponent is an insult to the biological reproduction equipment.
Other people's biological equipment is to enhance the driver's combat effectiveness, but this fearless mecha is to weaken the driver's combat effectiveness. When used, the movements are stiff and slow, and even the speed of ordinary people cannot be matched. The failure rate is so high that it is almost invisible.
"Director Judith, we have tried our best, but mecha research is too difficult. We have just started, and there is still a long way to go before we can reach the level of Jieko Group."
Coggero is very frightened. If the US government no longer provides financial support, it will be difficult for companies like Boston Dynamics that lack commercial value to find real profit points.
Judien said nothing with a cold face. He just pointed at the other large diamond mecha. This mecha was carried by a heavy flatbed truck and said: "Don't make so many excuses and continue testing. I want to take a look." You guys have figured out something.”
"This, this. We have just developed this diamond mecha, and it has not yet undergone any testing."
"Then let's do the first test today."
Judien couldn't help but interrupted Cogelo's delay.
"Come here, drive the diamond armor."
Cojero gritted his teeth and could only muster up the courage to hope that nothing would go wrong with this diamond mecha.
"Wait a minute, Judith, let's go further, don't lose your life here."
On the side, General McCann spoke directly, expressing his distrust of Boston Dynamics without mercy. As he spoke, he took a step forward and stayed away.
Cogelo stood motionless, which was embarrassing.
Don't talk about him anymore. The nearby researchers lowered their heads, obviously feeling too embarrassed.
"Test as soon as possible."
Judien shook his head, thinking of the test of the Dreadnought Mecha just now, and followed General McCann very attentively, turned around and came to a safe position, and then signaled the other party to start the test.
Soon, testers followed the ladder behind the diamond and climbed step by step to the head of the diamond mecha. Here was a driving position with various gears and buttons.
"Our diamond mecha is 16.35 meters high. It is comparable to the tiger-type main battle mecha exhibited by Jieke Company during the military parade."
When Cogelo was introducing Judien, the diamond mecha that had just started overturned.
A true overturn happened when the hydraulic transmission of the diamond mecha's legs moved forward. The huge weight made it difficult for him to maintain balance.
Nowadays, humans have many difficulties in using humanoid robots, and walking is one of them. Even a human-sized robot is difficult to adjust to the point where normal people can walk, let alone a robot that is more than ten meters tall and weighs hundreds of tons. Mecha.
Just as soon as one foot of the Diamond Mecha landed on the ground, sparks of electricity erupted from its joints.
Then he tilted his body and fell heavily from the flatbed trailer, hitting the floor. Various parts flew everywhere, and black diesel and engine oil flowed everywhere.
The head on the mecha's neck was like an iron ball. It separated and rolled away. The pilot fell inside covered in blood.
Then black smoke began to appear from everywhere on the mecha, and flames began to appear. The fire broke out on the mecha. The staff on site became a mess and hurriedly found fire extinguishers and water pipes from everywhere to put out the fire.
"I knew it, luckily I was far away."
General Mike looked lucky. If he had not left just now, he might have been killed by the flying parts.
Judith didn't say a word, just stared at Cogelo, who was sweating all over.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, Director Judith. This type of heavy mecha has too many difficulties, including energy, transmission, and intelligent control. We will definitely work hard to improve it. Please trust us."
Cogelo ran over to explain to Judith, and he was also in trouble.
Although the performance of the diamond mecha just now was disappointing, it was really Boston Dynamics' best efforts to create such a heavy-duty mecha. Even if it was just a look-alike, it could at least move.
Judien turned around and left with a dark face. He was already extremely disappointed with Boston Dynamics.
This was far from what he expected for the mecha, and it had no practicality at all.
The only thing that gave Judien some comfort was that large mechas were so difficult to use. It was obvious that this type of design had major flaws.
I can't develop it here, so if I want to go to the Jieke Group, it's only half a bucket of water.
When it comes to the battlefield, it's just a target, so there's no need to worry about their tiger-type main battle mecha killing everyone.
The beautiful country originally planned to carry out a series of actions to take into account the threat of the Tiger main battle mecha.
Now from Judien's point of view, even if Jieko Group is ahead of Meimeiguo in terms of mechas, it will definitely be difficult for the opponent to fight in large-scale mechas.
Otherwise, why after the military parade, there were no rumors of tiger-type main battle mechas again, indicating that this large-scale mecha must also have many flaws, and they can safely and boldly implement their plans.
