In the end, all that could be done was a frustrated sigh, "These scientists are really getting too greedy!"
"For an experiment, they even inquire about the total funding available first... it’s tough!"
...
Zhao Yi was unaware that he had been misunderstood, but even if he did know, he wouldn’t care, because he was indeed about to conduct a significant experiment.
The approval and application process for such a major experiment wouldn’t start in a day or two, and he still had some time to relax. So, he took the opportunity to visit the laboratory and arranged the work for Zhao Linlin.
The position for Zhao Linlin was not something that could be filled by a direct hire; a Traditional Chinese Medicine research group needed to be established.
The task of this group was to apply for projects related to Traditional Chinese Medicine and gradually carry out research and development. For now, after the group had been established, Zhao Linlin was the sole member.
Therefore, after Zhao Linlin arrived at the lab, her first job was to recruit talent related to the research of Traditional Chinese Medicine for the laboratory.
Only when they had gathered two or three people, including a core figure to lead the research and development, could they truly apply for projects and conduct research. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Zhao Yi didn’t hold out too much hope for the research related to Traditional Chinese Medicine; he simply wanted the lab to have a relevant research group which might be able to help with future research and development.
In medical research, it is very important to have talent from multiple fields.
Traditional Chinese Medicine, with its thousands of years of history and profound heritage, could be described as vast and profound. There might be some novel discoveries that could play a significant role in advancing medical development, helping humanity overcome disease, and achieving health and longevity.
After living comfortably in university for a while, Zhao Yi received news that funding had been allocated, the experimental site had been chosen, the nearby power plant was ready to begin construction, but the Z-wave Generator still required his design and possibly even his personal supervision in construction.
This task was too important.
If it were just an anti-gravity device, Zhao Yi could simply design it and let others build it, but the Z-wave Generator required even more precision. A slight deviation in the angle at a certain position could greatly impact its overall performance.
Hence, Zhao Yi simply went directly to the experimental site and got involved in the construction from the beginning.
The experimental site was chosen in the uninhabited desert area of the northwest, and while the working environment was harsh, it was a requisite due to the high-energy nature of the experiments and their absolute confidentiality. Fortunately, communication was not a problem. The specialist link devices produced by Space Information Technology could convert voice into text and directly translate it into images without any electronic signals.
The main focus of the experiment was on two devices, one of which was a large Z-wave Generator.
Zhao Yi theoretically designed the highest performance device, capable of emitting Z-waves with a power hundreds of times stronger than those released by space shields.
The strength of these Z-waves, though limited in release distance and coverage area, was extremely astonishing.
Besides, there was an ultra-high-power adjustable anti-gravity device, but the anti-gravity effect wasn’t the key. The focus was on its subtle adjustability and coverage, paired with the intense Z-waves, to achieve positive and negative energy conversion in space.
Since the Z-wave Generator required a high amount of power, it needed to be paired with specialized power plants to ensure sufficient energy supply.
As Zhao Yi diligently immersed himself in the preparations for the experiment, the research on Z-wave satellite weaponry was also progressing smoothly.
One month later, a rocket carried the first Z-wave satellite weapon into space.
The Z-wave satellite weapon, orbiting about six thousand kilometers above Earth’s surface, would slowly circle the planet and could be controlled to shift its orbit gradually. Its sole function was to release Z-wave beams to strike targets within a 15,000-kilometer coverage area, aided by a satellite radar system.
Equipped with solar panels, the weapon could charge the Z-wave Generator, amassing enough energy in approximately three months to fire a Z-wave beam once.
This Z-wave satellite weapon had many advantages, such as cost. Including the launch expenses, it would not exceed fifty million yuan, which was relatively low considering the three-month interval between strikes.
Of course, it had its shortcomings. Because it needed to continuously maintain its internal magnetic field, it required constant power consumption, which the solar panels alone couldn’t sustain. It relied on conventional battery packs, with a theoretical operational life span of at most one year or three Z-wave beam releases.
After reaching one year in orbit or firing three Z-wave beams, the satellite weapon would crash along a predetermined trajectory.
Due to its short service life, the Z-wave satellite weapon was currently only an experimental model, and further research would definitely be conducted to develop weapons with longer operational longevity.
When the first Z-wave satellite weapon was launched into space, it was quickly followed by the second and third. The satellite weapons experiment team launched three Z-wave satellite weapons consecutively, and then entered the testing phase.
The initially planned experiment was for the Z-wave satellite weapon to strike predetermined ground and sea targets, but no one had anticipated that the situation would change so dramatically, altering the nature of the experiment.
...
YD Country is among the world’s most populous nations and may even be compared to Z Country; also, because of its proximity to its neighbor, YD Country always hoped to surpass Z country and consistently compared itself in all aspects to Z Country.
YD Country is committed to the development of military technology, repeatedly trumpeting the slogan "Self-built advanced weapons." They certainly did so, investing heavily in the research and development related to advanced weapons.
Whenever the situation along the border became tense, YD Country liked to flaunt its weapon’s deterrent effect to boost morale among the populace, signaling to them that YD Country too possessed the capability to produce advanced weapons domestically.
Thus, YD Country publicly announced it was ready to conduct an experiment with the WUW cruise missile.
Although their domestically manufactured cruise missile—from inner to outer core technology—originated from other countries and was only modified with a supposed domestically-produced engine, as long as some components were domestically produced, they were deemed to be made in YD Country.
That day.
YD Country carried out a public test launch of the WUW cruise missile.
Military officials from YD Country, expressing their confidence during media interviews, believed the launch experiment would undoubtedly be successful.
"We have great confidence!"
"Experts have made final adjustments to the parameters, estimating the deviation range will not exceed five hundred meters. That’s an extremely precise figure." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
"The experiment is bound to succeed. I will wait for the moment it concludes and will applaud vigorously..."
Finally.
Witnessed by many, the WUW cruise missile ignited successfully and rapidly shot up into the sky after ignition.
The launch was also broadcasted live on television, watched by numerous citizens who swelled with pride for their nation’s strength.
As the cruise missile ascended, the television broadcaster shouted excitedly, "It’s going up! It’s successfully going up!"
"This is a moment to be remembered!"
"Our domestically produced cruise missile—there are not many countries in the world that can achieve this—YD Country is truly on the path of rejuvenation. It’s said that the WUW missile is incredibly precise and advanced, it..."
"Blah blah blah~~"
"It’s still climbing, turning slightly, it should be traveling at a steady speed through the atmosphere, it’s still rising, the camera can hardly see it now, it’s just a tiny black dot on the screen..."
At that moment, something strange happened.
The small black dot on the screen suddenly became bigger, then even bigger, and swiftly turned into a large plume of smoke, inside of which faint flames could be glimpsed.
"What’s happening?"
Before the broadcaster could react, a boom resounded from the sky.
"Boom!"
The broadcaster, staring blankly at the screen for a long moment, finally said dazedly, "My dear Lord! Bless us! This time I’m sure... the missile suddenly..."
"Exploded!"
"This is an accident, definitely an accident, how could the missile explode just after launching..."
"My dear Lord!"
"..."
