Chapter 395: Every Second Counts
Valenli's words surprised all the aliens present, when did the cyborgs dare to speak in front of them in such a tone? And "earthlings are the only recognized friends of the mechanical race"? Something like scrap iron, how dare you look at no one?
But these words are definitely impossible to say in front of Mu Chen, don't look at this earthling is very kind, but the people he regards as enemies have never ended well, look at those poor barbarians, they are all about to be wiped out.
Although these aliens were not satisfied with the words of the cybani, they could only frown and say nothing.
Valenli didn't care about the attitude of these people at all, maybe they had already gotten used to it, and it wouldn't be long before they would pay the price for the previous discrimination and rudeness, and there was no need to be like a group of dying people.
15 days to build an artificial star core, the construction period is too tight, the Huaxia side who received the notice attaches great importance to this project, and immediately launched action, but there is really no bottom in the heart, dare not guarantee that it can be completed within the specified time.
The level of infrastructure in Huaxia is already the highest level in the world, and after receiving technical support from Dumart, it has become one of the leading infrastructure camps in the universe.
The star core drawings provided by the scientific research team are very detailed, after all, it is precision machinery, and it also involves nuclear fusion reactors, and there must be no problems in every link, otherwise even if the manufacturing is completed, it will be very troublesome to install and repair.
The amount of work that went into producing this artificial star core was too much? Huaxia undertakes more than 50% of the work, which is already the limit of their ability, and the processing of other parts can only be handed over to others to do.
Almost the whole world has been mobilized, as long as it is a well-known enterprise engaged in machining and parts production, more or less received some production tasks.
Even those interstellar refugees are not idle, using their existing industrial base to also help produce some parts.
What Mu Chen didn't expect was that the mechanical people actually directly took over the most important and difficult part of the artificial star core, you must know that even the Dumats are not confident that they can produce a qualified transmission shaft, after all, the process requirements of this component are very high, and it needs to have a strong industrial level.
Mu Chen is not worried about the mechanical people being able to do it, he has been in contact with the mechanical people so many times, he found that the mechanical people are generally very down-to-earth, never speak big, there is no such thing as a master, since they can do this work next, it means that they have the strength to complete it.
"Then please everyone, the time is tight, the task is heavy, within 15 days, I want to see this planet move!" Mu Chen said solemnly.
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
The unanimous answer is also an undoubted commitment, Mu Chen is very grateful for the dedication and efforts of these construction parties, but he also knows in his heart that he is indeed a little strong.
Moreover, this artificial star nuclear project was launched directly without any experiments, and it is difficult to say whether it can succeed or not, even if the scientific research team swears to it, but any accident may cause irreparable regrets.
"Mr. Mu Chen, thank you and the Earth Federation for everything you have done for Proxima Centauri, I ......," Princess Carol said gratefully.
"Now is not the time to talk about these things, you Proxima Centauri don't be idle, the task of transporting equipment and instruments and construction personnel will be entrusted to you, this construction of an artificial star core is an action of global cooperation, and the manufacture of spare parts is scattered in various galaxies of the Cosmic Alliance, you must hurry up and transport the manufactured parts to save time as much as possible." Mu Chen said seriously.
"I know
I'll leave this matter to us Proxima Centauri, and we promise that nothing will go wrong. Carol assured solemnly.
Mu Chen's plan is very simple, a bit like Boeing's model of building airplanes, scattering all the parts around the world for standardized production, and then assembling them together, but it took Boeing decades to complete this manufacturing layout, while Mu Chen only had a few days.
Fortunately, Mu Chen's personal appeal is still strong enough, almost no one in the Earth Federation will refuse his request, and those big entrepreneurs who have made a lot of money by taking advantage of the opportunity of the Earth Federation to join the Universe Alliance are eager to offer Mu Chen's portrait in the living room from time to time, and gratitude is not enough to describe their mood.
In just a few years, these giants in all walks of life have earned more wealth than the sum of the previous hundreds of years, and the market is still expanding, which means that they still have a lot of room for growth in the future.
Everyone knows where their good life comes from, so they are almost obedient to Mu Chen's requirements, even if the production of these parts requires the transformation of the production process, they have no complaints, and try their best to meet the requirements on the drawings.
Proxima Centauri needs this artificial star core that is so large that it is equivalent to building a power plant the size of the moon, and it has to be successful once, with no chance of rework.
This kind of workload would be impossible for a single factory to complete, even if it was to hold a knife around their necks.
But splitting the workload into millions of individual projects and spreading them across tens of thousands of organizations in the Earth Federation is no longer a difficult thing to do.
On average, each enterprise and factory will receive more than 10 parts processing tasks, the production efficiency is greatly improved, because it is a specialized and standardized production, the pass rate of parts is also very high.
Less than a day after the assignment was assigned, there was good news from many factories that the first batch of parts had been completed thanks to their efforts against time.
Mu Chen roughly counted that most of the first to complete the task were enterprises in Huaxia Kingdom, which also showed the ability and efficiency of infrastructure madness.
Proxima Centauri's warships were the first to go to Earth through the jump tunnel to deliver parts, along with tens of thousands of engineers and a large amount of equipment for installation work.
With these things, the assembly of the artificial star core can begin, and this is less than two days before the plan is finalized.
As early as when the plan was decided, the marines and maintenance personnel of the Reaper fleet used the existing equipment and tools to widen and transform the mother worm passage into a tunnel to the center of the earth to facilitate the transportation of subsequent parts.
Mu Chen's old buddy Hou Ying personally led his men to carry out the construction, and it only took one day to open up the shortest passage on the road and widen it to a width that could accommodate construction vehicles.
"Fatty, hard work." After Mu Chen's acceptance, he said with emotion to the dusty migratory eagle.
"What's polite, isn't it what you should have done?" Hou Ying waved his hand indifferently and said, "How about it, I didn't embarrass you, did I?" ”
"Say what? When did you and Richard ever let me down? Mu Chen said with a frown.
"Hehe, that's true." Hou Ying said with a smile, reaching out to light a cigarette for Mu Chen, "By the way, I have something to discuss with you." ”
"I'm still engaged in these things, if you have something to say, just say it!" Mu Chen took a puff of his cigarette and said angrily.
"I'm afraid our Reaper fleet will inevitably have to fight with insects in the future
The clan fights a war, and recaptures the planet occupied by the swarm, this artificial star core should be used, and I want to apply for a batch of large construction machinery, so that the work efficiency will be higher. Hou Ying said seriously.
"Well, it's a good idea, you go to make a plan yourself, make a list of the machinery and equipment that need to be purchased, and I will approve it." Mu Chen thought for a while and said.
"That's a good feeling, with the equipment at hand, we don't have to take advantage of the maintenance mecha to construct." Hou Ying said happily.
At this time, there was also good news from the mechanical people, the most critical transmission shaft of the artificial star core has been manufactured and has been sent, Mu Chen only then knew that these mechanical people have already mastered the transition technology, even far beyond the level of Proxima Centauri, their ultra-long-distance jump, the error generated is not more than 1 meter, and it can be carried out under the extremely complex environment of the star field.
"Mr. Valenli, you cybologists have hidden deep enough, and you are reluctant to use such a good thing?" Mu Chen said seemingly casually.
"Hehe, if it weren't for your urgency, we might have hid this technology for a little longer." Valenli smiled and said, "Check it out, I brought the driveshaft you need, and it perfectly meets your standards." ”
"Thank you so much, with it, the biggest difficulty of the artificial star core will be solved." Mu Chen said happily, "When Proxima Centauri sends the nuclear fusion reactor over, it is estimated that it will be installed at full power." ”
Valunli hesitated for a moment, but still said solemnly: "Mr. Mu Chen, there is something I need to talk to you about. ”
"Why are you so serious, you can say something." Mu Chen shrugged and said.
"I want you to keep it a secret and try not to reveal the information about the technurtons, I know you've got some speculation about our plans......"
Mu Chen's face turned cold, and it seemed that what he had been worrying about was still going to happen.
"Does this battle have to be fought?" Mu Chen asked out loud.
"You also know the situation of our mechanical people, we have been oppressed by discrimination for nearly 10,000 years, this kind of hatred is impossible to give up easily, until now, only the Earth Federation can treat us equally in the Cosmic Alliance, we just want to gain some respect." Valen said in embarrassment, but his tone was unusually firm.
"What if the Earth Federation proposes to elevate the status of the Automata at the Cosmic Alliance meeting? In this way, we may be able to secure some power and status for you in a peaceful way. Mu Chen said seriously.
"Mr. Mu Chen, thank you for your kindness, no matter what, the Earth Federation will be the best friend of the cyborgs, but you probably also know that that kind of proposal is very difficult to pass, the aliens' discrimination against the cyborgs is deeply rooted, and only war and fear can make them change this opinion." Valenli said firmly.
"Phew, it's going to be a catastrophe." Mu Chen sighed and said.
"Don't worry, it won't affect the sphere of influence of the Earth Federation, we will always be friends." Valenli said earnestly.
Mu Chen smiled reluctantly, his eyes were full of bitterness, once this war starts, it will definitely have a great impact on the Universe Alliance, how can the Earth Federation be alone?
"Forget it, don't think about it, I'll keep it a secret for you, but please also ask the autontons to leave a trace of mercy when they provoke a large-scale war......"
"I'll take your words back, the automatons don't worship killing, we just want the least respect and the dignity of the automatons! That's all. ”
