Chapter 165 The experiment was destroyed, and the original system manuscript disappeared!
"Sir, why can't I be here?"
Because I'm young? Because I lack experience? Because I haven't given as many academic presentations?
Please remember... seniority-based ranking is a rule only the weak must follow! I... only believe in meritocracy and the survival of the fittest!
If any of you here have ever developed something that surpasses mine, then I'm willing to work for you for free on this project! If not… please don't use age to dismiss me! Science is about results… not age!
I'm sure you've already guessed it by now.
That's right, I am Jiang Chengcheng, the chief engineer of this research and development project.
I am but a humble person, only qualified to be the chief engineer for this project.
Please continue to provide guidance and cooperate with us in the future.
As for this project, after much deliberation, I decided to name it Project Jingwei.
I hope we can all have the perseverance and courage of Jingwei filling the sea to face future research and development work!
That's all I have to say. If there are no objections, I'll start arranging the work now." After a passionate speech, Jiang Chengcheng calmly pressed the microphone button and glanced at the stunned crowd below.
The old man, who had been glaring angrily, fell into a long silence.
half an hour.
"You claim you have the ability to lead the Chinese people to victory over all nations? What makes you think that?!"
When the old man said this, there was not a trace of disdain in his tone; it was simply a question.
His dark brown, cloudy eyes were now frighteningly bright, yet he remained fixed on Jiang Chengcheng on the stage, staring intently without blinking.
Yes! She looks like a kid who's not even twenty years old, why should they believe her?
Everyone felt that the old man had spoken their minds!
When they first learned that Jiang Chengcheng was the chief engineer of this project, they were not only surprised, but also angry and resentful!
However, their good upbringing led them to choose to endure it for the time being.
Who among you here isn't a chosen one of heaven!
And why should I be subservient to others?!
Jiang Chengcheng met the old man's imposing gaze without the slightest fear. She remained calm and composed, and slowly spoke while keeping her eyes on the old man.
“Each of my research and development projects is enough to change the world!” Jiang Chengcheng said, slowly taking out a file folder that she had prepared beforehand.
She had anticipated this situation before she arrived, so she made preparations in advance. The file contained a brief description of her past research and development.
Everyone took the document with puzzled expressions and passed it around to check it. What they saw almost made their jaws drop in shock!
this! this! this!
Where did the country find such a monster?!
They had never heard of it before!
"Wow! A super telescope! The field of view is incredibly clear within the solar system, and half clear beyond that! That's amazing!"
"That's nothing! Look at this! The White Emperor Space Fighter! High stealth, high maneuverability, high-performance engine and advanced electronic equipment, capable of hovering in the air, top speed of Mach 100, and unlimited flight altitude. My God! Is this even possible for a human to build?!"
"Hey! Hey! Hey! And here I am! The Cheng Ying unmanned mech! A sensor simulator! It can perform all the actions that humans can do, and it can even fly unmanned! If this were deployed to the battlefield, it would be a force to be reckoned with!"
"Shouldn't your focus be on their inventors? This is incredible! At such a young age, she's single-handedly created so many groundbreaking inventions?! She's aiming to fly to the heavens and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"
"I feel that this kind of person will eventually become a legendary figure who goes down in history and is written into textbooks. We won't lose out by following her!"
"More than that! While the big shots are eating meat, maybe we lowly soldiers can at least get a sip of the broth!"
After seeing the information in the file, the group went from feeling resentful to being completely convinced in less than a few dozen seconds.
The old man pushed aside the crowd who were helping him, slowly walked towards Jiang Chengcheng, and lowered his noble head.
“Young man, I take back what I said before! You are right! Scientific research has always been about results, not age! I am proud of China’s new generation like you! Please forgive my previous unreasonable behavior for the sake of being Chinese.”
Seeing the old man bend down, Jiang Chengcheng was also a little surprised. She thought that given the old man's status, he would never apologize, but she didn't expect him to bow his head so readily! She quickly stepped forward to help the old man up and replied.
"Sir, you're too kind. I understand; I would have expressed doubts too. We'll be colleagues from now on, so we should cooperate more to better accomplish our national tasks. I can't do anything alone, can I? Let's get to know each other again. Hello, my name is Jiang Chengcheng." As Jiang Chengcheng spoke, she extended her right hand to the old man.
“…Hello, I am…Liang Chengshan!” the old man replied slowly, extending his right hand.
Thus, the older generation and the new generation of researchers met for the first time!
As it turns out, given Li Zhongguo's intelligence, it was indeed unlikely that he would send in unreliable people.
It's a pity that Jiang Chengcheng praised it too early!
After the matter was resolved, Jiang Chengcheng got back into the swing of things and assigned tasks to everyone.
The Jingwei Project was thus launched in an orderly manner.
Everything was going smoothly until the experiment was about halfway through, when an accident occurred!
It was another beautiful, sunny day, and everyone was having lunch in the cafeteria when the base's alarm suddenly went off.
"What's going on? Why is the alarm going off! Xiao Liu, you run fast and go check it out! We can't afford any mistakes! We'll be there shortly!" Liang Chengshan's expression changed drastically upon hearing the sudden alarm. He stood up, abandoning his cane, and ran towards the laboratory!
"You all follow Mr. Liang, I'm going to take a look!" Jiang Chengcheng also suddenly stood up from her seat, gave a few instructions, and hurriedly rushed towards the laboratory!
When she arrived at the laboratory, it was a complete mess. The energy engine, which was halfway through development, was destroyed and scattered everywhere. The documents on the table, including the system document, were burned to ashes!
There wasn't a single person in sight!
"Damn it! Who the hell did this?!"
"I'll f*** you! You bastard!"
The crowd following behind, upon entering and witnessing this scene, were so enraged that they lost all reason and began swearing!
When Liang Chengshan saw the state of the laboratory, he was so angry that he almost fainted!
"Check the surveillance footage." Jiang Chengcheng calmed herself down instantly. As the project leader, she couldn't panic!
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Check the surveillance footage!"
"I'll go find the military right now!"
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly realized that now was not the time to be angry; the most urgent task was to find the culprit!
Those who were quick enough to run heard this and immediately contacted the military.
By the time the military heard the alarm, they had already surrounded the entire base island!
