Chapter 234: Custom exoskeletons
As a developed capitalist country, the professional manager market in the United States is huge, and it is easy to choose a satisfactory one.
An Feng put down the phone and didn't change his clothes, so he got into the car in casual clothes and flip-flops, and walked along the avenue surrounded by palm trees with an open canopy, from the bridge through the inner bay, and down south to the central Miami district.
Regardless of performance or comfort, in terms of appearance alone, the Brute Bull is indeed a pretending artifact...... An Feng parked the car under the office building very chicly, stepped on slippers and walked into the lobby on the first floor without care, he was particularly conspicuous in a group of well-dressed white-collar office workers.
The main office of the shipping company is on the cruise ship, so the company's location is not extravagant, only renting the fifteenth floor of an office building, but there are only a dozen people in the company, almost one person and an independent office are still available...... It's only now that the number of people has increased.
Jim is still reliable, it is not easy to recruit so many people in a short time, he also understands An Feng's psychology and character, and knows that he should talk less and do more, let go of small things, and only big things need to be asked...... In the office, An Feng and Jim sat down face to face.
Jim gave him a few documents: "Mr. An, after my screening, this group of professional managers are relatively experienced, most of them have been engaged in tourism or shipping-related occupations, and they can get familiar with the position more quickly, and there is no need for additional adaptation time, please take a look." ”
An Feng flipped through it, and Jim added appropriately: "Everyone on the list will retake the test in half an hour." ”
He stayed behind and participated in the interview as the boss, accompanied by three interviewers. The process is similar to when he applied for the job, but now he has changed his identity, and after a few rounds of interviews, he has taken a fancy to a few good ones, and they all stayed. Anyway, the company is short of people, and there are many positions.
I found a head for Ocean Shipping. An Feng's role was changed to that of an investor.
Go back and enjoy a day of vacation with friends, An Feng gave them the territory, and returned to California with Joanna first, anyway, there is Wu Qian, the housekeeper in the villa, and she knows very well what to do. There is something else to do in the hurry to return to California, and Hoffman, who had gone to England, has returned.
An Feng met with Hoffman and listened to his report on the progress of the work there, basically the British machine company developed the booster system very simply, but the model of the robot company was copied in the past. It's all about the equipment. A few days ago, far away in England, Hope. Goodrich also mentioned it.
After saying the unimportant things, Hoffman came: "Mr. An, what is the plan for our exoskeleton?" ”
An Feng knew that these three sentences were inseparable from robots and exoskeletons, and he was also prepared before coming: "Continue to manufacture the second-generation exoskeleton, but please order the components of the booster system from the machine company in the UK, and the energy and chips from the GP company, and we are only responsible for the assembly of the structure." ”
Hoffman said, "No problem. And it's going to be even faster. ”
After all, everyone understands the manufacturing process, and there is no need for several people to repeat a set of processes to waste time. Doing it separately can improve efficiency, and now the British machine company has received an investment of nearly four million dollars, and the purchased machinery and raw materials are in place and ready for production.
An Feng added: "Your task is not easy, we currently have an order from a company to make a standard version of the exoskeleton for them. It is for the sample. In addition, you will need to build a few more custom exoskeletons, and the relevant data will be available in a day's time. ”
A long time ago, An Feng talked to Guli about exoskeletons.
After the theft of the robotics company, the exoskeleton was almost semi-public. People in the industry know that the company is developing these techniques, but they don't know what the progress is and what the effect is. Now that the road has been paved, it doesn't hurt that these exoskeletons are exposed, and it can be regarded as technical propaganda.
Raytheon bought these samples, will definitely make the exoskeleton appear faster, with the temperament of the Americans, they will not give up this opportunity to show off in a low-key manner, so when other countries are red or nervous, An Feng, a great benevolent person, can easily gain gratitude and favor.
The only consideration is not to let outsiders know that he sent the Dao.
He then got in touch with Guri.
"I've chosen three guys for you who can't talk nonsense, and the Americans who aren't cunning are hard to find, but there are still them," Guri said. ”
An Feng said with a smile: "Please bring the volunteers you selected over tomorrow, and we will officially start work." ”
……
A helicopter is parked in the open space of the robotics company.
The four of them came down, An Feng knew each other, the first Guri, as well as Harry and Jack, who were dispatched together by the diplomats, and Mars, the team leader who showed courage in the last pursuit exoskeleton. After the four of them got off the plane, they followed Guli towards An Feng. An Feng and Guri shook hands and embraced.
"Come on, you guys go and measure your body data first." An Feng has no nonsense, the laboratory has prepared measuring equipment, which will measure the accurate data of their bodies, including how long the fingers are, how many millimeters more than the ring finger, etc., the current exoskeleton is still customized.
"Isn't it possible to widen the range a little bit, just like wearing clothes, where tall people can wear the right clothes, and the shorter ones can wear them?" ”
An Feng said: "There is this kind of thinking, but it still needs to be improved. This will be the case in the future, where specialized customization, while perfectly fitting, is a waste of time. ”
Guli measured the height of the staff, showing 1.95 meters, this guy's body shape and fierce appearance have always put a lot of pressure on people, and the materials used on him will be more, but it is worth the money, An Feng also wants to test the performance of the exoskeleton in actual work.
After the detailed measurement of the four of them, everyone saw that the general counsel and the boss had a relaxed chat, and the three of them also said that they were curious about how strong the exoskeleton was, after all, the last time they made such a big formation to chase down the stolen items, everyone knew that it was extremely important.
Faced with their questions, An Feng beckoned Hoffman over.
Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and holding a tablet, Hoffman was tall and thin, standing in front of these strong men, like a little white rabbit facing a big bad wolf.
An Feng asked, "How many times can he walk under you?" ”
The four men looked at each other, although they remained serious, but there was still some contempt in their eyes, and Mars said, "I'm sorry, Mr. An, can we not answer?" ”
An Feng smiled and said, "Vulnerable, right?" ”
The four of them didn't move, you said nodding, although it is a fact, but he is a chief technician, and he can't be offended; If you don't nod your head, it's too disobedient, I'm sorry for myself...... An Feng looked at their expressions and said, "Maybe the four of you together may not be as good as him." ”
"What?" This time, it was Mars who spoke up.
"Let the facts prove themselves." An Feng beckoned the other technicians to come over, he was carrying a black box in his hand, which he opened on the table, and inside was a set of red-painted exoskeletons, An Feng was speechless when he saw it...... Again, you can't understand the world of scientists.
"Hoffman, please!" An Feng said.
Hoffman took off his glasses and walked over to expertly don his red-painted exoskeleton, and An Feng reminded the four of them: "You'd better use some protective gear. ”
But all four of them shook their heads, obviously thinking that even with a few irons on their bodies, they wouldn't get much stronger.
Three minutes later, Hoffman, who was a little thicker, stood in front of them.
An Feng asked, "Who will come first?" Or together? ”
"I'll come first!" Mars stepped forward with a big grin and pinched his knuckles, "Just put him on the ground, and I'll win, right?" ”
An Feng nodded: "Of course!" ”
"What a shame!" Mars's body shape is also very tough, and when the words fell, he threw himself at Hoffman, trying to lift him up and put him on the ground like an eagle catching a chicken, but before his hand touched Hoffman, his shoulder was grabbed first, and the force was not small!
Mars gritted his teeth, his right hand reflexively raised, trying to hold the opponent's hand down with the fighting skills he had learned in the army, and at the same time turn around to give him an over-the-shoulder throw - his steps were correct, his movements were crisp, and he would have fallen a long time ago, but when he turned around and hugged Hoffman's arm, it felt like nothing had changed...... It's like holding on to a piece of steel standing in cement and trying to bend it, but it's powerless.
But the well-trained Mars wouldn't throw in easily, sweeping out a kick to Hoffman's shin when his body was already leaning in an attempt to trip him first – but this time too, he kicked the metal exoskeleton and the opponent just moved a step.
Mars himself was pinned to the ground by a clumsy move.
He lay on the ground, stunned and looked at Hoffman, who had just pressed him down with his two hands and with his strength, and couldn't believe all this.
An Feng went over and pulled him up and asked, "How is it?" Is there a sense of powerlessness? ”
"It's very powerful." Mars nodded, "If I fight like this, I can't do anything about him." ”
The implication is that An Feng understands, whether it is fighting or fighting now, no one will be like this, if you play really, Mars can use a killing move in the first round, kicking the crotch or inserting the eye is a good choice, and then pull out the saber and give the opponent a few heartstrokes to end the battle.
But they are not stupid, the exoskeleton gives a weak otaku such a strong force and speed, if they are put on it, doesn't it mean that the combat effectiveness will be increased exponentially? Thinking of this, Guri and the others applauded: "Good thing, I think I understand its power!" ”
Mars looked at the exoskeleton on Hoffman's body with envy: "Looking at its small size, I'm afraid it's not only a commando, but also a ground crew for armored troops, airports or aircraft carriers, and even many positions that require endurance and load-bearing, it can be competent enough for one enemy and two enemies......"
An Feng said: "There are more beneficial things that you have personally used to know the Dao. (To be continued......)
