Not long after He Su left, Zhou Huang came to report to Gu Cheng: "Boss, the volunteers who participated in the 'Heavenly Soldier Project' have arrived and are waiting in the hall. ”

"Let's go, let's take a look."

Gu Cheng went to an indoor hall of the R&D center and saw 12 young volunteers, all of whom were between 22 and 27 years old, all with flat heads and short hair.

"Let me introduce, this is the founder of Tianqing Technology Group, Gu Cheng."

Zhou Huang introduced the 12 volunteers, everyone looked surprised when they heard it, Xiao Zhou turned around and explained to Gu Cheng: "Nine of them are retired soldiers, from the north and south of the river, except for Zhao Yousheng, Li Donglai, Sun Qiang are soldiers in service, everyone else has cases, and they all have heart problems." ”

There are many people in China, it is not difficult to find qualified volunteers, but the most eliminated during the screening period is the political trial, and the volunteers who join the "Heavenly Soldier Program" not only have no flaws in their resumes, but also can not have any bad records of direct blood relatives and collateral blood relatives of three generations.

In addition, they must have the experience of enlisting in the army for compulsory military service, and they must be absolutely loyal to the country.

You must know that after joining the "Heavenly Soldier Project" to receive transformation and strengthening, they can not only get rid of the disease, but also become individuals with great strength, super pioneers.

If the political review is not passed, the potential hidden dangers are also very large, and there are also real constraint plans.

There are so many things to consider at the top that any potential hidden dangers must be dealt with.

The key point is the plastic carboxylene chain implanted in the body, which will become waste with the metabolism of cells, and to maintain this strong strength, it is necessary to regularly replenish the biological macromolecules embedded in the carboxylene chain to strengthen and strengthen the new cell tissues in the body, such as bones, vascular networks, muscles, etc.

This is equivalent to indirectly pinching the lifeblood of the super elite soldier and ensuring that the strength will not get out of control, this kind of powerful individual force far beyond the human limit ten times the level, without effective constraints, the "Heavenly Soldier Project" will not be launched so smoothly.

Gu Cheng couldn't help but look at the 12 volunteers, Li Donglai, Sun Qiang, and Zhao Yousheng, the three of them were special combat team members in service, their spirit was particularly full, and at first glance, their bodies were hard and there was nothing wrong with them.

The other volunteers, although they were young, looked quite emaciated, young but mentally weakened, and obviously sick.

Li Donglai and the three of them joined the "Heavenly Soldier Project" because this initial super elite squad needed to lead the team, and the superiors also fully considered that this super elite squad could form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, so as to shorten the time and bring Shen Shouzhang back from North America as soon as possible.

The 12 volunteers introduced themselves one by one, and Gu Cheng nodded and looked at them: "You came here, presumably a leader has already explained the relevant things to you, so I'll make a long story short." The 'Heavenly Soldier Project' is a top-secret military research program, and the state has allocated a budget of 70 billion yuan for this top-secret program, which means that on average, each of you will eat up about 6 billion of the country's huge funds, and during the future service period, you will have to eat about 10 billion, about 10 billion per person. ”

I'm obedient......

When the 12 volunteers heard this astronomical number, they were stunned for a while, and it was obvious that the leader did not tell them this.

Gu Cheng continued: "Your body will be strengthened through high-tech technical means, after completion, you will have unparalleled strong individual strength, it can also be said that the force value, can run faster than a cheetah, can kill African elephants with one punch with your bare hands, can make you comparable to the power of the gods with the body of a mortal, this is a super sharp soldier, you will become such an existence." ”

For Gu Cheng's remarks, the 12 volunteers did not say a word, they were not unwavering in their hearts, they were so calm because the leaders had explained before they came, don't ask if you have any doubts, just listen and do it, and don't mention a word that shouldn't be asked.

Gu Cheng's words made them feel extremely excited, for the 12 of them, it was undoubtedly a phoenix nirvana, reborn from the ashes. But at the same time, everyone's mind is also very aware that this is also an extremely heavy burden.

Gu Cheng looked around at everyone: "...... So in the future, our technicians will systematically transform your body, your heart will be replaced, and your bones, muscles, blood and blood meridians, including lungs and spleen cells will be injected with different proportions of a substance called carboxylene chain, which accounts for about 3.75% of your body. ”

It is worth mentioning that Menna's body now contains 2% of the implanted carboxylene chain substance, and the proportion of 3.75% is the best proportion of the human body.

Gu Cheng: "I don't know if you will doubt your life when you hear this, and doubt whether you are a human being." The answer is, it's still human. These changes will not turn you into robots, what you looked like before the transformation, and you will still feel hungry, happy and sorrowful, and will not prevent you from having children in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Cheng smiled jokingly: "Speaking of this, not only will it not hinder, but it can also be more manly than men, this is a hidden benefit, but you must grasp the explosive power!" ”

Volunteers: "......"

Zhou Huang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but interrupt: "Boss, I have once again applied to volunteer to join the 'Heavenly Soldier Program' and become the 13th member of the first batch of super soldiers." ”

Gu Cheng glanced at him: "Shame or not, if you don't feel ashamed, I'll be ashamed of you, is it possible that you can't lift it?" ”

"Hahaha......"

After all, the volunteers present couldn't hold back their laughter for a while, and Zhou Huang blushed and tried to refute: "Nonsense, we are dying of explosive power." ”

Gu Cheng said lightly: "Wake up, you don't have a girlfriend, do you show off your explosive power to the fifth girl?" ”

"Hahaha......"

Xiao Zhou felt so heartbroken.

The people present were all big men, and they were all peers in their twenties, and the eldest one, Li Donglai, was also 26 years old, although they were warriors, they had strong faith and a spirit of sacrifice.

But it's also people, not cold war machines, and this laughing atmosphere is humane.

With such a small episode, everyone was much more relaxed, and they were not as serious as before, Gu Cheng didn't like the serious atmosphere.

Zhou Huang said slowly: "Although we are single now, it is a matter of seconds to get off the single, there are several single girls in the company who still admire us, who in the company does not know that I Zhou Huang is the only celebrity in front of the boss?" With this article alone, the sister paper who wants to be my girlfriend can be lined up from Tianqing Industry to the hive headquarters. Although rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, then again, the building near the water gets the moon first. ”

At this time, Xiaoqing suddenly said, "Is it the only celebrity on the red list?"

Xiao Zhou: "......"

Gu Cheng: "Look, even Xiaoqing despises you." ”

Xiao Zhou: "Made, despised by an AI..."

After the episode, Gu Cheng's first meeting with the 12 volunteers ended quickly, and they were settled in the Tianqing Industrial R&D Center, where they were responsible for their daily meals and daily life during this time, and there were also professional staff in charge.

Half an hour later, Gu Cheng convened a meeting with the principals of the R&D team, and after Meng Na completed the treatment and rehabilitation, the team of 1,000 people was not disbanded and deployed to other R&D departments, but immediately took over the project of "Tianbing Plan" as a whole, which is also a logical transition.

"How long will it take to complete the intensive renovation of 12 volunteers?" Gu Cheng spoke in the conference room.

Yu Fengxian, who attended the meeting, immediately replied: "The transplant operation is very fast, 12 volunteers can complete the surgical transplantation within two months, but the manufacturing speed of the core heart is not fast, its structure is too complex, representing the ultimate of human process technology, according to the manufacturing speed of the first core heart, we can only guarantee the manufacture of a core heart within one month at the earliest." ”

It takes a month to make a core heart, 12 people is a year, the production efficiency of the core heart is not impossible to improve, the deadliest way is to increase the manufacturing equipment, but the current economic level does not allow, not to mention that the manufacturing of a single core heart will cost two or three billion, if you build mass-produced manufacturing equipment, you have to spend tens of billions.

Although Gu Cheng likes to use money to buy time, the terrifying gold-swallowing ability of the "Heavenly Soldier Project" and the gameplay of using money to buy time can't stand it.

After spending so much money to build 12 core hearts, and then the next batch will come out without knowing when, the core heart manufacturing equipment that has cost tens of billions of dollars can only be mothballed, and additional budgets have to be spent on maintenance.

With such expensive manufacturing equipment, if you throw things away after you finish making them, Tianqing Technology can't do it to such a generous point.

It's too cost-effective, and you can't recover the cost at all.

Unless the state spends trillions on the "Heavenly Soldier Plan" project, the number of the first batch of super soldiers will create the size of a company, that is, more than 100 super soldiers.

Then it can be mass-produced, and even if it costs three or four billion, the cost can be recovered.

But this is obviously impossible, at least not in the short term, and the country's total military budget for this year is more than 1 trillion yuan, which is indeed quite a lot, but it is still very tight when subdivided.

Otherwise, because of the investment of the "Heavenly Soldier Project", more than one or two dozen other projects would not have been cut or shelved.

"I really can't afford to hurt in a high-level war." Gu Cheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Not only can't I afford to hurt, but I can't afford to lose!" ”

Otherwise, how can there be a saying that a cannon goes off with 10,000 taels of gold, fighting a war has always been about money, and fighting money is about national strength, and there is no exception at home and abroad throughout the ages.

In modern warfare, a rocket is fired by hundreds of thousands of millions, and the firepower coverage is cool, but the flesh hurts in the heart, not to mention those strategic-level mass killers.

And the future high-level wars are even more excessive.

A complete set of individual equipment in modern warfare, tens of thousands of dollars or so can equip a soldier with a complete set of sophisticated equipment, to the mechanical exoskeleton equipment individual equipment, a soldier with hundreds of thousands of equipment, and then to the second-generation exoskeleton power armor, not to mention the foreign trade version of the 100 million US dollars a set, even if the domestic demand is tens of millions.

And now the super top soldier eats billions of astronomical sums with one soldier.

It is an indisputable fact that wars are becoming more and more advanced, more powerful, and more and more expensive, and this is also an inevitable trend.

Gu Cheng clapped his hands and said: "Then come one by one, the efficiency is maintained to create a super pioneer in a month, and complete the task plan of the first batch of 12 super pioneers within a year. There is no problem to start preparing now, and the construction of the second core heart will start immediately. ”
