Chapter 1162: Chapter 567 This is a large UFO!_3
His ’vacation’ had ended.
Zhao Yi was required to participate in the previously arranged public work related to anti-gravity technology, and he had even been delayed by a full day.
At this time, many companies, institutions, and even representatives of nations had gathered at the base used by the Aviation Group for demonstrations.
Everyone was focused on the anti-gravity device.
The arrangement from the Aviation Group was to let the guests personally experience anti-gravity by activating the device and allowing it to float them into the air.
Afterwards, discussions on patent licenses and the sale of anti-gravity devices would follow.
Zhao Yi’s job was to explain how the anti-gravity device worked because only he knew the technology best. Only he could ensure that no secrets were revealed while still answering any related questions.
Upon arriving at the base, the first people Zhao Yi met were Liu Jiankun and Zhu Honglei.
Zhu Honglei had been sent by higher-ups to observe on behalf of the senior leadership, essentially acting as a supervisor and recorder, documenting everything that occurred and providing feedback to the higher echelons.
Since the anti-gravity technology had been designated for civil use and entirely handed over to the Aviation Group, at least on the surface, it was no longer appropriate for senior leaders to intervene directly.
On the day of the demonstration.
The representatives congregated in the hall and saw Zhao Yi leading the way out.
First came the friendly handshakes, getting acquainted with everyone, and after the courteous greetings, they went straight to the demonstration phase.
Zhao Yi, leading at the front, began by taking them through the ’Anti-gravity Technology Exhibition Hall’, a temporarily constructed exhibition hall that contained some photographs, with some areas annotated with basic principles and the names of people who had contributed to the technology.

Everything inside was especially produced or preserved to later be placed in the Anti-gravity Technology Museum. Moving forward past the corridor, they came to an open space outside where the anti-gravity device was placed to the side, covered up, but the presence of staff moving in and out could be seen.
"Remove the covers!"
Zhao Yi instructed, and a few persons quickly approached the machines and removed all the covers.
When the representatives caught sight of the full view of the anti-gravity device, they couldn’t help but gasp in amazement. The device appeared as a large metal disc with a diameter of about forty meters. It looked very impressive, leaving not just the first-time-seeing representatives astonished; even Zhao Yi was somewhat stunned.
This is... the anti-gravity device?
He was even a bit skeptical.
He had not seen the ’specially constructed’ anti-gravity device before, and had not expected the exterior to be ’decorated’ so well. He knew about the ’decoration’ process, which simply involved wrapping everything with a metal shell, making it look much more refined from the outside, plus a transparent control room in the center, making it truly resemble a large UFO.
Many people exclaimed, "This is a UFO!"
"Anti-gravity really is UFO technology!"
"Academician Zhao, are you sure you haven’t acquired alien technology? This is truly astonishing!"
Zhao Yi shook his head, "All our research on anti-gravity is our own; there is no alien technology involved. This large metal device in front of you is the culmination of anti-gravity technology. Its interior can reduce weight by over ninety percent and when operating at maximum power, it has the ability to hover, reaching up to two kilometers high. However, let me make it clear, the anti-gravity devices we sell do not have hovering capabilities."
The group of representatives nodded in agreement, their eyes fixed on the device.
"Now we will stand here and wait for the device to be officially activated. Due to its limited size, only twenty people can enter at once. Those who want to experience the sensation of space should go over there and get a secure suit."
Zhao Yi said, walking over first, with the representatives following in a swarm.
The twenty secure suits were quickly snatched up, and those who hadn’t grabbed one in the first round could only wait regretfully for the next opportunity.
