Chapter 284 Speed up! accelerate!
“I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?”
When Amber asked this question, the shocked people didn’t know what to say for a moment. good.
They found that their boss's heart seemed a little too big. Just now, the group seemed to be almost buried in this asteroid, but now they had the heart to ask such a question.
In the end, Randall said carefully:
"Good news?"
"The good news is that I should have obtained the management rights of this equipment and can put this thing into production at any time, and the mining and refining efficiency of the mining team will make a qualitative leap. "
"Should?" Randall caught a key word.
"Ahem. Basically there is no problem."
"Basically?" George also caught a keyword.
"No, you believe me, there will definitely be no problem! If something goes wrong, I will take care of it for you!"
"What if?" A group of miners captured a keyword at the same time.
Now everyone could no longer hold it in and burst into laughter.
This is also the characteristic of Atlas employees, or a kind of ‘corporate culture’ of Atlas.
No matter what personality or psychological quality this person has, as long as he joins Atlas and works on the front line for a period of time, he will gradually become as heartless as the 'big boss'.
Especially when staying with Amber.
"Dang you guys, let me tell you the bad news~"
Amber also smiled, and then continued:
"The bad news is, this The maker of the gadget is a civilization that has disappeared from the universe for a long time, and may be hostile to us humans and the elves of the Thousand Star Empire. If they come to visit one day in the future, they may want to fight. .”
“Boss, can’t we just return the things to them when the time comes?”
"You are such a clever guy, then I will send you to negotiate with them when the time comes!"
"Hahahaha, Boss, let me go if the time comes, Jamie is a coward and maybe you will see I wet my pants when I saw these aliens~"
Everyone present laughed again. Obviously, for them, the 'Forerunner Civilization' is still too far away from their lives.
Even though they now work for Atlas, which is considered a relatively cutting-edge organization in human society, it is still difficult for them to be interested in this illusory ancient civilization for a while.
As long as you know what is hidden in this asteroid, it can greatly improve the efficiency of mining and refining. That is enough.
But this is what Amber wants to achieve now.
Things about the Forerunner civilization, especially the scene in the illusion where the Forerunner civilization is suspected of fighting humans and elves, will become a secret that only you know for the time being.
To avoid causing panic to others.
In his opinion, rather than spending time explaining the origin of this thing to employees, it is better for them to forget about it as a joke.

After Amber gained full control of the ‘Growable Large-scale Mining and Refining Core’, there were some changes in the workflow of Atlas Mining’s mining team.
The several Gyrator-class mining engineering ships that were originally the main force for excavation became auxiliary roles in the operation, and the real main force of the entire mining team became this huge regular hexadecahedron.
Amber first controlled this thing and dug out several basic large holes in the asteroid, laying the foundation for the subsequent base construction.
Then he drilled out from the inside of the asteroid along an 'entry and exit' channel that was opened.
Next, all the work of cutting the asteroid or digging out the outer rock wall was handed over to this creation of the forerunner civilization.
The unknown 'green ray' it emits is far more efficient at decomposing ores and crystals than the hot melt cutter on the mining engineering ship.
So after Amber set up the mining program and assigned the control authority to George, the task of this hexadecahedron, internally codenamed 'Planet Eater', became to cut off the exploration teams Calibrated asteroid.
In this process, it simultaneously absorbs and refines the flying debris, as well as the scraps dragged by the small engineering ship, to complete its own growth and prepare for its subsequent development into a large-scale mining and refining platform.
Yes, the permissions of this thing can be assigned.
When Amber used the mark in her mind to let the blue chasing light emitted by the hexadecahedron scan George's body, George's biological information appeared in the 'control interface'.
So Amber assigned a authority called 'field executive officer' to George.
Allows him to control the hexadecahedron to move short distances and select cutting targets. And an existence similar to an 'electronic fence' also limits the activity range of the hexadecahedron to this asteroid belt.
Amber's setting is that once someone wants to forcibly drag away the 'Growable Large-scale Mining and Refining Core', then this thing will directly enter irreversible self-decomposition Process
After explaining these things and learning that with the help of the financial business department, Atlas Mining has become the leading mining supplier in the border area between the Federation and the Star Dragon Empire.
Amber also made the next step of instructions - to rely on the "Growable Large-scale Mining and Refining Core" ore refining technology that far exceeds the level of human technology to complete the market monopoly of refined ore in border areas.
As for the increased profits after the expansion of production, their use has been determined from the beginning.
That is to support the Atlas Private Military Company's next explosive plan.
After arranging the relevant work in the mining area, and giving the miners a ten-day shift that will start immediately After the vacation, Amber left the mining area and headed to the Tower of Babel, which she hadn't been to for a long time.

After the war on Lubion 5 ended, Atlas Group began to focus mainly on the three projects of post-war reconstruction, asteroid belt mining, and explosive ordnance. The overall pace was much slower than before. few.
Of course, this slowdown refers to the slowdown in the pace of projects. The efficiency of Atlas employees in actual work still maintains a very high level.
All projects in the entire group, from large to small, including daily meal preparation in the staff canteen, have project timetables and progress charts set by Lilith after calculations.
Under Lilith's 'refined management' of monitoring the work behavior of all employees, rewards and punishments within the company are basically 'discovery on the same day, ruling on the same day', ensuring that there are no unjust, false or wrong cases.
After having an ever-expanding server array in the asteroid to maintain its own computing and storage needs, Lilith's capabilities have now reached a level that is difficult for other AIs to reach.
To manage more than 10,000 employees under various subsidiaries of the Atlas Group, it is enough for her to allocate a little computing power.
All projects are broken down by her starting from the top level, and then down to the corresponding level of employees.
Everyone can see the work tasks they should complete today on their personal terminal every day, as well as the overall task progress, whether they have any task lags, and other information.
Except for middle-level and above-level supervisors who occasionally need to discuss together, other employees only need to complete their tasks on time and with quality.
If the work that should be completed today is completed every day and continues for a month, the employee will receive a 'perfect attendance bonus' in addition to the salary.
It can be said that Lilith’s company management module can be called the ultimate version of ‘fully automated worker management software’.
This kind of efficiency is most vividly reflected in Atlas Industries.
Most of Atlas Industrial’s employees are focused on R&D, testing, and sales.
Except for some necessary safety officers and machinery managers, no one else can be seen on the production line.
On the 24-hour non-stop assembly line, individual weapons and equipment, exoskeletons, various combat vehicles, and HCPs that have been finalized and put into production are being continuously completed.
Some of them are packaged directly after leaving the factory and sent to the Comprehensive Training Center in Babel. Combat troops who have completed all training subjects will wait for distribution after completing the re-equipment.
The other part of the 'reduced' version of the products for external sales will be sorted and sent to the star systems where each customer is located through the airport.
So you basically can’t see a few civilian employees in the entire Atlas Industry.
The same is true for private military companies, mining companies, and the newly established 'Engineering Construction and Development Co., Ltd.'
Lilith is responsible for completing 90% of the clerical work. Others only need to focus on the work in their hands.
Under this background of eliminating the "human interference" factor to the greatest extent, Atlas Group's human efficiency ratio has reached the extreme, and the speed of progress of various projects is completely unimaginable by other organizations and forces.
Other companies, even the federal government, or the 'feudal dictatorship' of the Star Dragon Empire, will have the same feeling after seeing the work efficiency of the Atlas Group's '8-hour work system' A doubt.
“Does this kind of efficiency really exist?”
As Atlas continues to develop according to the blueprint planned by Amber, the distant business alliances do not only speak in the hope that the Federation and the Empire will restrain each other. , while continuing to maintain the attitude of 'watching a tiger fighting from afar'.
The war situation between the Federation and the Star Dragon Empire is also accelerating like the game plot in Amber's memory.
On the Star Dragon Empire side, Duke Duke and Duke William withdrew with their respective strategic fortresses and expeditionary strike groups.
Hastings and Duke Artesia of the princess party led the fleet and completed the handover with the 'friendly forces' with the support of strategic fortresses.
The fleet is fully equipped and the morale of the personnel is high. The two newly arrived dukes on the front line also have a certain degree of confidence in the coming battle.
Even if we can no longer complete the advance, there is still no problem in holding on to the six galaxies we have captured, right?
But they didn’t know that during the window period for the ‘handover’ of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, the largest fleet so far in the war, even larger than the previous round of counterattack, had already assembled in front of them.
