Chapter 190 189. Projects that will change the future
Jing Zhi couldn't help but take a few steps forward, "Mr. Scott, please forgive me for asking. Alchemy is a 'refined' subject. The preparation of potions depends on the power of the soul."
"There are currently only a hundred official alchemy pharmacists registered in the alliance. Where can we find so many pharmacists to support... a huge alchemy project?"
Su Hong stood up slowly and walked over to Jing Zhi, "You really don't know?"
The alchemy factory in the simulated future was not born out of thin air. It is the result of the efforts of countless alchemical pharmacists and engineers.
It was Jing Zhi, the director of the Alchemy Research Institute in front of him, who first proposed the concept of an alchemy factory.
About three years later, he will find Shao Zhongcheng, the dean of the Engineering Design Institute, and the two will propose the concept of an alchemy factory to the alliance, and after a long struggle, the project will be implemented.
The two middle-aged men in front of him were the fathers of the alchemy factory.
"I..." Jing Zhi showed a hesitant look. At this moment, he recalled an idea that had been abandoned long ago.
If there really is a so-called huge alchemical project, then the conceptual thing in his mind is undoubtedly it.
But is this really possible?
Jing Zhi said slowly: "Mr. Scott, I have indeed thought about the conceptual design of the alchemy project, but that is not realistic."
"In contrast, I am more curious about what is the huge alchemical project you are talking about?"
Shao Zhongcheng pushed up his glasses and said, "If you need me anywhere, just ask."
Su Hong turned to look at He Xuemei, "Playing with fire here shouldn't trigger the fire alarm."
"What?" He Xuemei didn't respond.
Before she could continue to ask, Su Hong walked to the open space in front of the conference table. He opened his right hand and froze the alarm, and the shadow like silk thread spread out and merged into the darkness.
Under the gaze of everyone, a shadow was ignited, gradually outlining the outline of a specific device.
Su Hong said: "This is a gear."
The flames spread out, incorporating the gears, and an assembly line machine appeared, covered with strange patterns.
"This is an alchemy prototype."
"What?!" Jing Zhi's pupils shrank, and he clearly recognized that the magic lines on the prototype were unusual.
The flames continued to burn, and more prototypes appeared, connected in series into an assembly line.
"This is an alchemy potion assembly line."
"Alchemy factory?!" Jing Zhi blurted out, his eyes trembling and his expression a little excited.
"You mean the alchemy factory?"
"That's right." Su Hong smiled.
At his signal, He Xuemei pressed the projection button, and the 3D design drawings he gave were completely projected, overlapping with the flames.
Su Hong dispersed the flames and said calmly: "You should know its value very well."
Jing Zhi nodded, but soon he realized that he was too excited, and quickly calmed down and asked: "Mr. Scott, if the huge alchemical project you are talking about is an alchemical factory, then it can indeed change the future of mankind, and even It can bring alchemy medicine into thousands of households.”
"But I still want to confirm whether your plan and design are feasible."
Everyone sitting on the chairs stood up and started discussing.
To be honest, the research in the Alchemy Research Institute is generally on the cutting-edge technology of alchemical pharmacies. Most of them are theoretical research, and there are very few that can transform the research results. At present, most of the alchemy knowledge still relies on archaeology. Due to the difficulty of learning and mastering alchemical potions, the Alchemy Research Institute has been limited in scale development and is not valued by the Alliance.
But if the so-called alchemy factory can really be established, it will not only change the status of the Alchemy Research Institute in the alliance, but also change the future of mankind.
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes became serious and they listened carefully to the conversation between the two.
Faced with the question raised by Jing Zhi, Su Hong responded calmly, "Feasibility?"
"The alchemy factory technology I control is a completely mature and reliable technology. It includes not only the alchemy factory itself, but also technologies such as large-scale cultivation of alchemical raw materials, including all processes from the supply chain to production and transportation."
"I have handed over the relevant technical records to Ms. He Xuemei, and you two can inspect and discuss them."
"The whole process?" Shao Zhongcheng was shocked.
He knew exactly what this meant.
Just setting up an alchemy factory without other supporting facilities and supply chains, then the alchemy factory is nothing more than an empty shell.
Achieving large-scale production is important, but stable raw material supply channels are also important. Only by stable large-scale cultivation of alchemical materials can the production capacity of the alchemical factory be unrestricted.
Otherwise, relying solely on the undead corps to collect alchemy materials in the wild would easily lead to the embarrassing situation of full production capacity today and no material production tomorrow, forcing the factory to shut down.
Not to mention the impact on factory output, if the alchemy factory is shut down for a day, it will be a loss.
"Director Jing Zhi, Dean Shao Zhongcheng, I have asked the secretarial department to send the information to your accounts, please check." He Xuemei said.
"Oh, good." Shao Zhongcheng bowed and thanked.
"I'll contact the team at the institute and provide a conclusion as soon as possible." Jing Zhi left in a hurry, and the projection disappeared.
On the other hand, Shao Zhongcheng was more cautious. He used the terminal to contact the engineers in the courtyard and asked them to go to the conference room.
A few minutes later, Jing Zhi returned. He adjusted the equipment, and the table behind him and the team of alchemists and pharmacists were projected.
The alchemists and pharmacists looked at the people in the conference room curiously, then lowered their heads to discuss.
"It's strange why the teacher is so excited."
"Maybe menopause is coming."
"How can menopause come from being old?"
An older pharmacist coughed and said, "Ahem, the general manager and ministers are opposite. Please be more serious."
When the pharmacists heard this, they stopped discussing.
"Mr. Scott, I'm going to start the inspection right now." Jing Zhi couldn't hide his excitement in his tone. He asked the pharmacist to open the display screen and focused the inspection on the alchemy prototype machine and the cultivation process of alchemy materials.
On the other side, a group of young engineers also appeared behind Shao Zhongcheng. However, compared to the active pharmacists at the Alchemy Research Institute, these young engineers seemed shy and steady.
After Shao Zhongcheng led his team to salute everyone in the conference room, he began to review an astonishing number of drawings.
The conference room suddenly became quiet. Even the ministers who usually held the power of the alliance did not dare to disturb. Although they could not understand the contents of the drawings, they still stared at the projected figure.
"Hey, why didn't I think it could be like this!"
Jing Zhi was startled when he saw the content on the screen and slapped his thigh hard.
"Brother, this alchemical pattern seems a bit strange, does it look like the ultimate evolutionary version of the universal alchemical pattern you studied?" A young pharmacist pointed at the drawing and commented.
