Chapter 1,376 The Man Who Has Conquered the Ocean!
? Jiang Chen has said a long time ago that the Future People Group is standing on the shoulders of giants.
Lilith, the strongest artificial intelligence, helped a lot in designing the electronic pilot's AI. It can even be said that 60% of the credit belongs to her alone, and only the remaining 40% belongs to all researchers of the Future Military Artificial Intelligence Technology Laboratory.
Intelligentization of military industry is a major trend in the future and the main direction for the development of military industry in the future.
Not only electronic pilots, but also more flexible battlefield robots, these projects are on the research and development list of the future military industry. Even in the laboratories of the future military industry, there are already AI soldiers who can skillfully use weapons, vehicles, and terrain to fight. However, the high cost and poor performance-to-price ratio have prevented them from moving from the laboratory to the frontline battlefield.
However, Jiang Chen was still extremely convinced.
In the not-too-distant future, the war of flesh and blood will eventually be replaced by bursting electric sparks.
…
On the fourth day of the exhibition, it was still held at the temporary airport.
From S400 to Hongqi 15 anti-aircraft missiles, various thick and long anti-aircraft missiles were lined up on both sides of the runway. Compradors from various countries were commenting next to the missile launch vehicles and exchanging weapons performance and price issues with arms sales personnel.
As Jiang Chen expected, the defense exhibition has developed into an arm-wrestle between Russian military industrial enterprises and Chinese military industrial enterprises. The battlefield of competition even has a tendency to spread from the arms themselves to supporting facilities.
The celebration banquet had been held in advance, and starting from today, Future Military Industry will start to take care of the whole process. Therefore, Jiang Chen, the chairman of Future Human Group, did not appear at the exhibition venue. Instead, Future Military Industry CEO Ling Tao was present.
Jiang Chen originally planned to take some time to go to Coconut Island to transfer the accumulated supplies to Doomsday, but he didn't expect a rare visitor to come to his door.
"Why, judging from your surprised expression, don't you welcome me?" Standing outside the door, Ye Qinghua looked at Jiang Chen with a smile.
Not much has changed from when we met more than a year ago. This old man's body is still so strong, and he does not show any sign of his old age.
"How come?" Jiang Chen laughed and made an inviting gesture to the entrance of the house, "Please come inside."
What surprised Jiang Chen was that Ye Qinghua, who had been in contact with him for a long time,
This time I actually visited him in person.
Seeing that there were guests at home, Ayesha made a cup of tea for each of them, then turned and went to the second floor.
By chance, Natasha, who had just finished washing, stretched out and walked downstairs. When she saw Mr. Ye, she was slightly stunned, and then said hello generously. When passing by Jiang Chen, she leaned over and kissed Jiang Chen on the cheek like a wife who was about to leave for work. At the same time, she said quickly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Why is he here?"
After Natasha stood up, Jiang Chen responded with a helpless look to her, "I don't know either."
Today is a working day, and Natasha has to report to the embassy. As for Xia Shiyu, she was never late and went to the group building early in the morning. As the entrance door closed, Jiang Chen and Ye Lao were the only two people left in the living room.
After blowing the tea leaves floating on the hot tea, Ye Lao smiled and looked at Jiang Chen and said.
"Boss Jiang's villa is quite lively."
"Haha, where." Jiang Chen said with a humble smile.
"I heard that today is the highlight of the exhibition. Didn't you go to the exhibition hall?"
"We don't want to sell our air defense system, and I don't have much interest in other companies' air defense systems, so I just asked Ling Tao to look at it for me." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"I think it's not that you don't want to sell it, but that you can't find a place to do it." Ye Qinghua scolded with a smile.
"You're right to understand it that way," Jiang Chen touched his nose, opened his eyes and lied, "but I prefer to call it that, for the time being, we have not developed a military-grade air defense system suitable for overseas markets."
What Mr. Ye said is indeed partly due to the fact that the laser anti-missile system itself is a very cutting-edge technology, and it will not be long before the military industry masters it in the future. Currently, there is indeed no place suitable for castration. Directly selling the anti-missile system intact would weaken the strategic deterrence of Star Ring trade.
"As expected! You said you... just sell drones and exoskeletons that castrate sensitive technologies. I can't say anything to you. If you sell a rifle and use a castrated version to fool people, it's a waste of your business. Isn't that too kind?" Looking at Jiang Chen, Ye Qinghua scolded him sadly, as if he, a diplomat who had retired from the front line, was the one who suffered.
On the first day of the defense exhibition, China purchased a lot of S1 exoskeletons from Future Military Industry, including sickle drones and matching S1 rifles. If it weren't for the fact that the S1 rifle can be wired to the exoskeleton and introduce the auxiliary aiming function of the digital helmet, and its performance is good in all aspects, no one would go out of their way to buy a castrated version of the small weapon.
"We just distinguish the military-sold version from the personal-use version," Jiang Chen argued. "Just like your Type 95 and Type 97, aren't one for personal use and the other for external sale?"
"I dare to say with conscience that the only difference between Type 95 and Type 97 is the ammunition caliber, and there is not much difference in performance. Do you dare to say with conscience that the performance of S1 and Ripper rifle are the same?" Ye Qinghua glared at Jiang Chen and said.
"You came to me just to complain about this, right?" Jiang Chen said helplessly.
"Don't take it seriously, I'm just talking nonsense," Mr. Ye smiled and waved his hand, "By the way, let's get down to business. Are you interested in negotiating a deal?"
"What deal? Are you here to sell missiles?" Jiang Chen teased with a smile as he picked up the teacup from the table.
"Let me ask first, have you salvaged the wreckage of the Hurricane fighter?"
Jiang Chen took a sip of tea quietly, and after putting down the cup, Jiang Chen glanced at him sideways.
"What do you want to do?"
For some reason, this amiable smile looked more and more like a smiling old fox in his eyes.
"If you 'can't find it', you might as well sell it to us. You won't need those things anyway, right?" After talking so much nonsense before, Ye Qinghua, an old fox, finally revealed the real purpose of his visit.
All countries are now studying sixth-generation aircraft, and China is certainly no exception. It’s hard to say how far we have reached now, but if we can get ready-made sixth-generation machines for reference, it will undoubtedly be of great help to the sixth-generation machines being developed.
"That's it." Jiang Chen sighed and waved his hand, "Just because of that broken plane, you came to me, the Russians came to me, and even the Germans came to me... like this Well, can I have someone scan the drawing of the hurricane and send it to your embassy? I won’t charge you any money. You can buy another 10,000 exoskeletons and I’ll treat the drawing as a gift. How about sending it off to you?"
"Can you... scan the drawings directly?" Ye Qinghua said blankly.
"Why not?" Jiang Chen crossed his legs with a smile and leaned on the sofa, "Forget about scanning the drawings, you can just 3D print a new one with the drawings."
Ye Qinghua was silent.
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked.
"I don't understand. It's not too easy to develop a sixth-generation machine with your technology, but it's not too difficult at all. But why are you not interested at all?"
"For someone who has conquered the ocean, ask him why he doesn't study canoes." Jiang Chen replied with a smile, "Then let me ask you in turn, why do I have to study sixth-generation aircraft?"
