Chapter 501: Save Me Some Face

It was close to nine o'clock in the morning, and Hu Xiaopeng, who had already had a six-day long vacation, but was actually a six-day rigorous "training", finally embarked on a journey back to Beiling with Liu Yiyi.

It's not like an arrow, but when he thinks of what he has to do next, Hu Xiaopeng feels a double pressure, because according to the league schedule, there is only more than a month left for Hu Xiaopeng before the new season.

During this time, Hu Xiaopeng not only has to get all the IAs in the WIN, but also sets aside a certain amount of time for the players to get familiar with and adapt in advance, otherwise, even if the IA designed and transformed by himself is strong, then no one can give full play to their strength, in the end, isn't it a blind man lighting the lamp in vain?

Drive out of the city and onto the highway connecting Weihai and Beiling.

Maybe it was because Lin Jian knew that Hu Xiaopeng had discovered his identity, or maybe it was because they had strengthened their protection of Hu Xiaopeng, and they saw that the off-road vehicle that Hu Xiaopeng didn't even pay attention to when they returned to Weihai was already following their car closely behind like a convoy at this time.

Even when he went to the toilet in the high-speed service area, there were people who followed him unscrupulously, even if Lin Jian did not go out in person, and the two security soldiers were also wearing civilian clothes, but when he thought that there were two "door gods" waiting outside the pit outside the pit, where did Hu Xiaopeng still feel like going to the toilet?

For a while, Hu Xiaopeng really wanted to know if Lin Jian's security methods for Professor Chen were also like himself.

Or is Professor Yichen's identity far more outrageous than himself? Could it be that he is not even allowed to close the door when he goes to the toilet? Afraid that someone will stuff a bomb in the toilet?

"Hehehe......"

Thinking of this, Hu Xiaopeng, who had just sat in the car, couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Xiaopeng, what are you laughing at?"

"No, it just came to mind a joke."

"What joke?"

"I watched the news a few days ago, a foreign TV station said that our toilets have no doors, and they are open-air toilets, I really don't know what they think, when we are still a primitive society?"

casually made up a reason that was not funny to prevaricate, Hu Xiaopeng was about to set off again, but before he could drive the flying car onto the road, Liu Yiyi looked out the window and suddenly spoke.

"Brother Xiaopeng, is the black car in the back from the paparazzi? I saw it at the door of my house a few days ago, and it seems to have been following us all the way. ”

"Maybe, but it can't be helped, who called me a public figure?"

Hu Xiaopeng pretended to be curious and glanced back at the off-road vehicle that was also started behind him, and then continued to say to Liu Yiyi.

"Ignore them, when they get to WIN, they won't be able to follow even if they want to."

"It's just that looking at the current situation, maybe my freedom will be completely reimbursed in the future, so let's honestly eat and drink spicy food in my hangar, just to make up for the weight I have lost in the past few days."

Maybe Hu Xiaopeng hid Lin Jian's identity from Liu Yiyi at this time, but this last sentence was really felt by Hu Xiaopeng.

Even in Liu Yiyi's view, the reason why Hu Xiaopeng will "lose his freedom" is only because of his status as a professional player, after all, not to mention Hu Xiaopeng, a newcomer who shines in the All-Star Game, even Bai Zhanpeng and Wu Long, ordinary main players, usually do not dare to appear on the street easily.

In the face of Liu Yiyi's misunderstanding, Hu Xiaopeng didn't explain anymore, just drove honestly and chatted with Liu Yiyi.

Soon, when it was close to two o'clock in the afternoon, Hu Xiaopeng and Liu Yiyi returned to the headquarters of WIN again.

Compared with the lively scene before the Spring Festival holiday, WIN at this time is extremely depressed and quiet, if it weren't for Hu Xiaopeng, they knew that this was their early return to report, maybe just looking at the WIN in front of them, they would mistakenly think that WIN was on the verge of bankruptcy.

In the empty WIN headquarters, there were no other staff members in sight, except for the security personnel in charge of staying behind and the security personnel in the military area.

Even the cleaning workers who maintain the sanitary environment in the park are in the middle of the Spring Festival holiday of nearly ten days at this time, and according to the Spring Festival holiday time issued by Mu Qing, the staff of the canteen and logistics departments will not come to report until the morning of the eighth day of the new year at the earliest.

Fortunately, Liu Yiyi is responsible for Hu Xiaopeng's three meals a day, so he doesn't have to count on the canteen like everyone else, otherwise, Hu Xiaopeng, who doesn't dare to leave the WIN headquarters easily, may have to go to the machine security force to find Lin Jian to eat.

The time of three days passed in a flash, listening to the No. 2 library gradually becoming lively because of the return of Yu Xiaoming, Guo Zhao and others, and watching Xiong Tianci and Wu Long, who were concerned about the IA modification process, come to visit the class three or four times, as the focus of everyone's attention from top to bottom, Hu Xiaopeng ignored it at all, and only cared about the work in front of him.

And the reason that can make Hu Xiaopeng leave his job is that in addition to the fragrant meals that Liu Yiyi brought him, only Hou Ziang and Yu Xiaoming had to go to help when they encountered problems that could not be overcome.

With unremitting efforts, the "all-round mechanic", which has been highly anticipated by everyone at WIN, finally completed the final assembly work a week before the start of the new season.

Prior to this, under the leadership of Wang Hui and Li Mingxin, and with the full assistance of the mechanical department and the technical department, the active IA machinery, including "Blade" and "Fearless Hero", as well as "Soul Chasing Fire" and "Red Elf", were successfully upgraded in accordance with Hu Xiaopeng's established modification plan.

Even the "Night Razor", which had just been refitted, was instructed by Hu Xiaopeng to adjust some parameters according to the needs proposed by Bao Buping.

As for the new weapon researched by Yu Xiaoming, Guo Zhao and others--- the "Multi-barrel Matrix Sniper", it also successfully passed the alliance's weapon review at this time, and was successfully installed on the two firepower IAs of Soul Chasing Fire and Radiant Red Elf.

Coupled with the "Freezing Air Bomb" previously developed by Hou Ziang, these two firepower IAs have become the second largest IA in the WIN in terms of the number of new weapons and equipment after the new Tempest.

And why it is second only to this, this is naturally because the new Tornado IA not only has a new explosion-proof shield at this time, but also because of the new weapon technology of the "multi-barrel matrix sniper", and then the howitzer on its body has also been upgraded.

The original single-shot system became a matrix launcher composed of quadruple tubes, and even though Hu Xiaopeng had to reduce the caliber of the howitzer due to the alliance's parameter restrictions on the lethality of thermal weapons, this modification still made up for the cooldown time of the traditional grenade launcher during the game.

While traditional grenade launchers can only fire one shell in the same amount of time, the new quadruple launcher can fire more than two shells in bursts, allowing both concentrated fire attacks against enemies and continuous fire support for teammates in specific situations.

Moreover, the fire control system born from the firepower IA also makes the new grenade launcher have more accurate sights and electronic control equipment.

Coupled with the newly renovated main structure of the Tornado, it is not too much to say that this new Tornado is the strongest defensive IA in the league in terms of the parameters and performance of this IA alone.

New weapons equipped one after another, this is all the contribution of the design and development department after almost a year of establishment?

Of course not, because in addition to the new weapons developed by Hou Ziang and Yu Xiaoming and Guo Zhao, Bai Muyang, who is also a member of the design and development department, how can he do nothing?

It's just that his achievements may not be as obvious as the new weapon, and he doesn't have any ability to kill the enemy, but everyone up and down the WIN can't ignore the surprise and amazement brought by Bai Muyang, and even Hu Xiaopeng couldn't help but be stunned for several minutes after seeing it.

Polymer composite armor, including Hu Xiaopeng, everyone is a high-tech product with black eyes, and they don't understand the molecular structure in it, and they don't understand the effect that various parameters can achieve after combination.

But these things are not unfamiliar to Bai Muyang, a high-achieving student majoring in polymer materials, otherwise, he would not have picked this project as his research direction at the beginning.

It is conceivable that when a polymer composite armor with the same mass and volume as lightweight fiber armor has the same protective power as heavy armor, its value and significance are self-evident.

Perhaps the only problem is that the polymer composite armor studied by Bai Muyang cannot be mass-produced for the time being due to technical limitations, and due to the relationship between materials, its cost is relatively not low, at least it is much higher than the relatively expensive heavy armor.

But what does this have to do with WIN?

WIN doesn't want to invest in building a factory for the time being, and needs to make a profit by producing this armor, all they need is to redress all the IAs in their club and have enough replacement parts.

Besides, if it is really mass-produced, wouldn't it be equivalent to making your new equipment public? When the time comes, all clubs will be equipped, and the advantage of WIN will naturally cease to exist.

As for the cost of materials, this is not a problem for Mu Qing after the year.

If WIN had financial problems because of its record before, then with the success of WIN's relegation and the completion of a miracle of seven consecutive victories in the second half of the game, how could those sponsors and partners who wanted to withdraw their funds be idiots enough to terminate their cooperation with WIN?

And WIN has not been a star player since Mu Kang's death, in fact, it also ended with Hu Xiaopeng's birth, especially after Hu Xiaopeng won the championship in the All-Star Game, Hu Xiaopeng alone is enough to become Mu Qing's negotiation capital in front of various manufacturers.

Even if WIN's flagship IA is still a new hurricane, and even if the core of WIN is still Xiong Tianci, Hu Xiaopeng, as the deputy team of WIN and the deputy director of the design and development department, no one will question his status and identity.

Of course, perhaps Hu Xiaopeng still lacks the title of "chief mechanic" that he has been looking forward to day and night, but in fact, Hu Xiaopeng has long been the chief mechanic of WIN in the minds of everyone in WIN.

Otherwise, Hu Xiaopeng is only the deputy director of the design and R&D department, even if there is Mu Qing, the boss, behind him to support him, then it is impossible to mobilize all the resources and general warehouse inventory of WIN at will, and it is even more impossible for Wang Hui's machinery department and Li Mingxin's technical department to willingly support Hu Xiaopeng's plans and plans under unconditional circumstances.

The so-called uncrowned "king" may be Hu Xiaopeng.

It's just that before he really goes to get the "crown", he has another task, which is to lead WIN to win the league championship in the new season.

And this day, I believe, is by no means out of reach.

"I'll pay attention later, if I guess correctly, the player sent by YUR, even if it is not Zou Yuanchun, will be their vice captain Ma Yi."

Standing beside Hu Xiaopeng, who was wearing a brand-new competition uniform, Xiong Tianci looked up at the all-round mechanic who had been newly painted not far away, and asked him softly.

"Don't worry, this is my first singles match, no matter who he is, let me lie down......"

"Hehe, Xiaopeng, you misunderstood, I mean, wait for you to start a little lighter, our relationship with YUR is not bad, and it is appropriate to save some face for them."

Hearing Hu Xiaopeng's words, Xiong Tianci couldn't help laughing out loud and hurriedly explained.

"Huh? When training in the team a few days ago, who said that 'the best respect for the enemy is to give it your all'? ”

"Isn't that for Zhanpeng and Xiao Baozi, you are the deputy team, representing the image of WIN, which is different."

"Min, I'm the deputy team, you're still in the main team, at that time, the four of you besieged me together, why didn't you see your subordinates showing mercy? What about saving me some face? ”

"Forehead ......"
