"You know me so well."

Wei Mao pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray and smiled at Li Mengnan, unconcealing the appreciation for Li Mengnan in his eyes.

If the other party is a beautiful woman with plump breasts, fat buttocks, long legs and a thin waist, Li Mengnan may still feel honored, but being stared at by a perverted uncle-like stubble old man all the time, it always makes him feel a sense of egg pain and chrysanthemum.

"Relax, I'm a person with a normal sexual orientation and never stir up." Euonymus waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to be nervous.

You dare to say that your sexual orientation is normal? At the very least, it's the exchange of real species, but you have even broken through the limits of the dimension, okay......

Li Mengnan had a very professional formula smile on his face, but he couldn't stop complaining in his heart.

Euonymus could probably guess what he was thinking at the moment from Li Mengnan's subtle expression, but he didn't care, and said straight to the point: "I came to you this time to invite you to join our HX Research Institute. ”

"Wait, I guess you're making a mistake?"

Li Mengnan has made a lot of assumptions about the origin of the euonymus, and even formulated a corresponding response plan, but he has never thought of such a possibility.

"Do you think I drove all the way here just to joke with someone I don't know?" Euonymus touched the stubble on his chin and smiled faintly, Li Mengnan's reaction was completely unexpected.

"I'm just a freshly enrolled college student, and I'm not a teenager who won a world award, and I'm also a preschool education major specializing in teaching children, so I can't get along with a scientific research institution like you, right?"

Li Mengnan was quite wary of illogical things, and although he didn't directly refuse, the meaning of his words was obvious.

"I think it's necessary to educate you about the fact that in a scientific research institution, in addition to researchers, there is also a kind of person called a tester." Euonymus patiently explained to Li Mengnan.

"I thought you'd say there's another kind of person called real yàn material." Li Mengnan said suddenly.

Euonymus smiled dumbly, shook his head and said: "We are a formal scientific research institution, and we don't do that kind of inhumane ** experiment...... And for our research direction, a healthy research object is more valuable than those 'pickles' soaked in formalin. ”

"Pickles? The analogy is quite vivid. ”

"We researchers are also human, and giving us cute nicknames for things around us helps relieve our psychological stress...... It's like people say that '' may cause strong gastrointestinal discomfort, but saying 'sho' makes it easy to say and doesn't feel vulgar. ”

"I'm sorry, it's crooked again...... Without further ado, why? I'd like to hear your reasoning. Li Mengnan swapped Erlang's legs up and down.

"We at the HX Institute need people like you." Euonymus's answer was straightforward, and there was eagerness in his eyes.

"Uncle, your second secondary doesn't mean that I also have to follow secondary two, I have already passed the age where a slogan can make my blood boil......"

Li Mengnan gouged his ears with his little finger and stared boredly at a spider crawling around the ceiling.

"Well, it seems that if we don't come up with some dry goods, I'm afraid we won't be able to continue our conversation happily."

In the face of Li Mengnan, who did not eat oil and salt, Euonymus always had a feeling that a dog biting a hedgehog could not speak, although he never thought that this would be a simple and relaxed conversation, but he never expected that this student named Li Mengnan would be so difficult.

Euonymus opened his satchel and pulled out a silver-gray tablet and placed it on the table.

Li Mengnan noticed that the Euonymus tablet seemed to be specially made, with no logos on the upper and lower parts of the body, and it was thicker and heavier than the existing tablets on the market.

Press the start switch, a logo similar to an abstract metal butterfly appears on the screen, and you can see that it is a combination of the two letters of HX without careful identification, which is very aesthetic feeling of postmodernism.

"Your institute still has a logo?"

Li Mengnan was a little surprised, in his impression, the so-called scientific research institutions are a group of sloppy technical nerds who only talk about practicality and not beauty.

"We're a private organization after all."

"Why butterflies?" Li Mengnan has always felt that this logo would be more domineering if it was designed as a crab, and HX should have been a "river crab".

"It's a secret." Euonymus smiled mysteriously, "The day you officially join our institute, you'll know. ”

In addition to the unique boot screen,The things in this tablet of Euonymus are no different from ordinary people's tablets,Web browser、QQ chat software、Video player and the like should have,There are also a few full English names,Unknown use,But it looks like a very tall software icon。

The Euonymus pressed his entire palm against the screen, and after a few seconds, a faint blue light slowly swept up from below the screen, and the original desktop icon was replaced by a software interface similar to an image browser.

The way it started was quite bluffing, but with the click of the euonymus's finger, all that was displayed on the screen was pictures.

The content of the picture is also very simple, basically some items that can be seen everywhere, some are man-made, some are natural, but there are no big objects, and the largest is just an antique blue and white porcelain vase.

"Beginner's books?"

I can't blame Li Mengnan for complaining so much, although these pictures are very similar to real photos, they are all pure white backgrounds, and they do look like pictures used to show pictures and literacy to babies and young children.

Euonymus didn't answer, but after bringing up the preview picture, he flipped the tablet and pushed it in front of Li Mengnan.

"Pick one." Euonymus Nunu chin gestured.

"Psychometric testing?" Li Mengnan smiled, slid his finger up and down the preview picture, and clicked on a picture of a diamond.

"I always thought that a hermit like you who possessed strange arts regarded money like dung."

Seeing the picture Li Mengnan chose, Wei Mao couldn't help but look up at him in surprise.

"No matter how high you are, you are still human...... If one day I no longer eat rice and pull no longer Xiang, maybe I can try your Jianyì. ”

Li Mengnan has never felt that he is a superior person in the world, and in his opinion, this idea itself is a denial of his basic attributes as a human being.

"I like to deal with the laity."

As he spoke, Wei Mao quickly pressed a few option buttons, and then pointed to the "OK" button that popped up below, signaling Li Mengnan to press it.

"It can't be some kind of fraudulent contract, right? It looks like it's just a picture, and when I press it, it becomes a deed of sale? ”

Although Li Mengnan complained with a smile, the movements in his hands did not show any hesitation.

He knows very well that the legal efficiency of handprints is limited to paper documents, and electronic fingerprints are too high-end to be legally recognized at present, so he is not afraid of what kind of fraud Euonymus really plays.

The software is like an unfinished beta version, with no definite sound or animation displayed when a finger is pressed on it, and the image that occupies the largest area of the screen has not changed in the slightest.

However, Li Mengnan's pupils contracted suddenly.

He suddenly realized that at some point, there was something more on the screen of the tablet.

A pure white diamond the size of a pigeon's egg.

And whether it is the appearance or color, it is the same as the picture displayed on the screen.

"It's ...... Magic? ”

Li Mengnan didn't think that someone's tricks could be fast enough to perform "stealing the sky and changing the day" under his nose without him noticing, and there were no less than hundreds of items in the picture preview, and no matter how rebellious the magician was, it was impossible to carry them all on him.

Then the only explanation is illusion.

Although Li Mengnan was shocked in his heart, his face remained silent, and he used two fingers to pinch the theoretically valuable giant diamond from the screen with two fingers.

Both the feel and the luster are indistinguishable from real diamonds, and obviously even more perfect.

The more this was the case, the more certain Li Mengnan was that the diamond was the product of illusion.

Because perfection is the biggest flaw in the product of illusion, and there are often all kinds of subtle flaws that can be found on real objects.

Li Mengnan was about to take this diamond, which was suspected to be a product of illusion, to the sun to check its light refraction, but was suddenly pressed by the opposite euonymous spear.

"What? Afraid I'll abscond with a diamond? Li Mengnan said with a smile.

For this diamond, the two of them actually knew what was going on, and Euonymus naturally knew that Li Mengnan was joking, and said with a smile: "If you can take it away, that's your ability...... However, I still have to warn you that this illusion generator is not very powerful, and can only maintain an illusion range of about two meters, and once you exceed this distance, you will not see anything. ”

This sentence of Euonymus is equivalent to admitting Li Mengnan's speculation in disguise.

"So this thing is called an illusion generator?"

Now that he knew the answer, Li Mengnan lost interest in the diamond in his hand, casually threw it on the tablet screen on the desktop, and then bounced it on the body of the opposite euonymus with a clatter.

Illusions can't really make contact with real objects anyway, and he doesn't worry about smashing the seemingly expensive tablet.

"Although I don't know much about technology, I also know that no matter what product, as long as it can be miniaturized and miniaturized, it means that its technology is quite mature...... So I don't understand, since you've mastered how illusion works, what are you coming to me for? ”

The skill of illusion is actually very similar to how people learn to write, as long as they learn those hundreds of common words, writing some simple articles is just a process of constantly rearranging and combining them.

Since the HX Research Institute, where this euonymus is located, has been able to make illusions concrete, then creating a large-scale illusion scene is just a matter of time to build, and there is no technical difficulty at all.

"Uh...... How so? After all, Li Mengnan hadn't agreed to join their HX Research Institute, and it was inconvenient for the Euonymus to say to him many confidential things, so he could only say vaguely: "I can only tell you that the illusion generator is just a by-product of the research we are doing now, although the effect is magical, but in the end it is just a fun toy......

"Fun toys? What do you think? ”

Euonymus's disparagement of illusion made Li Mengnan feel very unhappy, and his tone was obviously beginning to be a little unhappy.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just standing on an objective standpoint." Euonymus handed Li Mengnan a cigarette again, lit it for him, and then lit one for himself, explaining, "I'm not talking about your illusion, but our illusion generator. ”

"We developed the illusion generator about two years ago, and at first we intended it for military use, to replace the optical camouflage that the military was working on...... But the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny, and we soon find that this road will not work at all. ”

"Because of the illusion imaging range." Li Mengnan knew the advantages and disadvantages of illusion well, and when he said this, he immediately knew what the problem was.

"Yes, the illusion generator is different from optical camouflage, which uses optical principles to distort the projection route of light, and its point of action is in itself; The illusion generator, on the other hand, affects the opponent's brain to achieve the shielding effect of the five senses, but its action point is on the opponent.

In other words, if we can't increase the power of the illusion generator to cover the entire regional battlefield, then there will be no stealth effect at all.

Modern warfare is not the kind of hand-to-hand combat of the ancient legion warfare, and the range of individual weapons is generally more than 500 meters, the artillery is tens of kilometers, and the launch distance of various missiles is calculated in units of 100 kilometers.

With the current manufacturing technology, if you want to create a phantom generator that can cover a local battlefield within a range of 100 kilometers, its area is almost equivalent to the entire Forbidden City of the capital, not to mention the construction period and cost, even if it is built, for the enemy, it is just a matter of a long-range missile.

And even if we were to shrink the illusion generator to a distance that an armored car could pull and run in the future, it would still not be of much practical value.

After all, it is now a three-dimensional war mode, and the army cannot see that there are still reconnaissance planes, and reconnaissance planes cannot see that there are satellites...... Even if we can one day cover the world with phantom generators, it will only be a waste of a few more electromagnetic interference bombs for the enemy.

Of course, although the military plan has been rejected, this thing still has a lot of potential to be tapped in the civilian aspect, and we have already transferred the relevant data to the audio-visual research department, and perhaps in the near future, we can directly skip the holographic projection technology and directly open the era of brain imaging.

You can imagine how exciting it will be when we watch a celebrity concert when we can not only enjoy an immersive audio-visual feast, but even touch an idol that was once out of reach! ”

"I don't know if it's exciting, I just know that by that time, there will be a lot of lewd uncles who are obscene while watching the illusion projection......"

Li Mengnan held his chin very bored, looking at the spitting stars flying in front of him excitedly describing the euonymus of a bright future, and his words obviously meant something else.

"Uh...... The development of technology will always be accompanied by the degradation of some people, but we can't choke on food, can we? ”

Euonymus pretended not to understand, and not a single old blush.

Li Mengnan suddenly found that this shameless appearance really had his demeanor back then, which made him embarrassed to complain anymore.

"I don't really understand what you're trying to say, but it feels like it's powerful...... I'm still not interested, though. ”

Li Mengnan has been exposed to illusion since he was five years old, and although it seems to others to be extremely magical, it has long lost its novelty for him.

What's more, he is a person who likes peace and ease, and he came to Tunghai University to enjoy the four years of good campus time, and he doesn't want to be entangled in too many messy things.

Euonymus was almost spurted out by a mouthful of old blood by Li Mengnan's "Ten Motions of Rejection", and he said so many words in vain?

"Uh...... Don't be in a hurry to refuse, I'll tell you about the full membership of our institute, and you can think about it before deciding. ”

Xiaozhi failed to reason, and the euonymus had no choice but to lure it to his advantage.

"Oh? Tell me about it? "Li Mengnan finally got a little interested, as he said before, he is essentially a layman.

"Our institute implements a hierarchical system, and junior members, that is, zero-level newcomers, can enjoy a guaranteed salary of 3,000 yuan per month, five insurances and one housing fund, and can also choose a house of less than 60 square meters in any place in the city, as well as a scooter of less than 100,000 yuan."

Probably because he was afraid that Li Mengnan would refuse directly without waiting for him to finish, Wei Mao spoke very quickly this time, and it was a bit like the host of a variety show inserting advertisements in the middle of the show.

To be honest, the treatment of the employees of this HX research institute was so good that Li Mengnan was a little surprised.

Putting aside the public allocation of five insurances and one housing fund, the guaranteed salary of 3,000 yuan can only be regarded as a medium level in this city, and it is even a little low, but the latter two benefits are too rebellious.

A 60-square-meter house, based on the current average price of almost 5,000 per square meter in Sanshan City, is 300,000 yuan, plus a 100,000 yuan car, a total of 400,000 yuan.

Just entered the research institute and didn't do anything, you can get employee benefits worth 400,000 yuan, even those top companies in China, I am afraid they don't have such a big hand and courage.

"Oh, I forgot to mention, the house and car are only lent to you for free, of course, if you can work for the institute for more than five years, then the house and car will automatically transfer to your name and become something that really belongs to you......" Probably feeling that this condition was not attractive enough, Euonymus revealed a little more insider, "But to tell you the truth, don't say five years, even if you can work in the institute for more than a year, it is estimated that you will not be able to look at this thing at that time." ”

"To be honest, the treatment you said really touched my heart, but it also strengthened my belief that I must not go......" Li Mengnan sighed softly, obviously he also felt that it was a pity to give up such a good opportunity.

"Why?" Euonymus once again had the urge to vomit blood.

"If you are courteous to others, you must ask for something, and high returns will inevitably mean high risks...... Living with less money and more close to home, high position and light responsibility, everyone wants this kind of good job, but the question is is whether there may be one in this world? ”

Most of the mistakes made by people are initially caused by greed, and Li Mengnan has always been very sober in this regard.
