In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the start of the Golden Finger Cup, and the number of people on this small planet suddenly skyrocketed, and you could see crowds everywhere you went, you must know that this is only the preliminary round, and when the real game begins, there will be thousands of spectators pouring in.

The first round of basic knockout rounds is held in several different assessment centers, the purpose of the exam is to test the theoretical knowledge of the mechanic, according to the different subjects registered, the intelligent computer will give the corresponding questions, most of them are to give the contestants a set of damaged machinery, requiring a limited number of parts to repair or modify it.

Xia Fei's test center can accommodate about 20,000 players, Xia Fei drew a set of modification questions, requiring the signal optimization of the power system of a Tristan-class frigate, the jump engine will release a lot of heat when starting, and the raging flames will also distort the surrounding environment, if the enemy has an advanced detection system, it is easy to find the start traces of the jump engine, the question requires that the signal generated by the engine be minimized as much as possible, and the score will be determined according to the final value.

Xia Fei thought for a while, and then his fingers began to click calmly on the light curtain, the signal generated by the jump engine is nothing more than two parts, one is thermal energy, and the other is space distortion, usually speaking, most people will use the method of reducing the power of the engine to reduce the signal strength, but Xia Fei did not do this, he dispersed the ** system of the engine, evenly scattered in the surrounding space.

This is like the relationship between points and surfaces, if you put a hundred kilograms of steel balls on the table, there is only one point to bear the force, and the desktop will easily feel the pressure, and if you spread a hundred kilograms of cotton on the table, then the whole table will be stressed, and the force is extremely inconspicuous, it is easy to make the table have an illusion, which can not only reduce the signal strength, but also do not lose the power of the engine.

Xia Fei tapped his finger lightly on the light curtain, finished his answer, looked up and looked ahead, only to see a man dressed in white striding out of the testing center, this person Xia Fei recognized as Bai Ye's cousin Li Mo.

There was a sigh of embarrassment around, you must know that it has only been five minutes since the assessment started, and Li Mo actually only took five minutes to complete the exam questions, which took less time than Xia Fei, which shows how solid his basic kung fu is.

Xia Fei pursed his lips and checked his answers to make sure that there were no mistakes before he stood up and walked out.

At this time, Li Mo happened to pass by the detector at the door, and the contestants will pass through a modified electronic door when they enter and leave the examination room, checking whether the candidates are carrying illegal items and what the participation card number is.

When leaving, a light curtain next to the door will also give a score on the spot, which is very convenient and fast.

The detector quickly began to operate, checking Li Mo's entire body again, and at the same time confirming his identity.

Ding dong

A crisp voice sounded, and a line of text appeared on the light curtain.

"Li Mo, the entry number is 3566912, the assessment question fire control system is accurately deployed, the score is 20, the difficulty coefficient is 6.375, and the total score is 127.5."

The full score of each question in the assessment is 20, and then multiplied by the difficulty coefficient of the question, which is the total score of the contestant, because it is a league-wide competition, the lowest difficulty of the assessment question is 5 times, and the highest is controlled at 7 times.

There was an uproar at the scene, and it took him five minutes to complete the question, and he got a high score of 127.5, which is really incredible

Li Mo had a smug smile on his face, and then he wanted to leave, but when he saw Xia Fei following behind him, he suddenly changed his mind and stood aside with interest, waiting for Xia Fei's score.

Ding dong

The tester automatically gives a score after obtaining Xia Fei's identity information: "Xia Fei, the entry number is 1022516, the jump engine signal is scattered in the assessment question, the score is 20, the difficulty coefficient is 6.375, the perfect solution special score is 10, and the total score is 137.5"

"137.5" A few of the players who are still in the assessment can't help but shout out, after all, this score is far more shocking than Li Mo's, but even if this voice is a violation, it will be immediately cleared out of the examination room, in a way, it is Xia Fei who inadvertently made these players with poor psychological quality lose the opportunity to compete.

The reason why they were so shocked was not because the score was ten points more, but because Xia Fei gave a perfect solution

There is not only one answer to every question, as the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome, but there is always the shortest and smoothest shortcut, and Xia Fei found such a path, without losing engine power while reducing signal strength, which is exemplary.

Walking through this electronic door will not be subject to the discipline of the examination room, Xia Fei lit a cigarette and smoked, looking very calm, he just tried his best to solve the problem according to what he learned, as for whether the answer was perfect or not was not what he cared about.

"Good job, I just want to get out of this boring preliminaries, so I don't care too much about whether the answer is perfect or not." Li Mo smiled lightly and said to Xia Fei.

Ding dong

At this time, the unexpected happened again, and the score on the light screen was changed again

That's 10 more than just now

I saw that there was an extra line on the light curtain on the basis of the original words, "The organizing committee of the competition has special extra points, 10"

The organizing committee of the competition gave special points, which means that the answers given by Xia Fei were recognized by the members of the organizing committee at the first time, and it is likely to be promoted in the future

In fact, in addition to the selection of the most intelligent maintenance engineers, there are also some considerations to promote the development of science and technology, and in the past every competition, there will be special players who have made a name for themselves because they have found extraordinary solutions, these people are either hired by the league's top design companies, or sell their inventions in exchange for a lifetime of worry-free money.

No one expected that in the first round of the preliminaries, there would be a perfect answer and a special bonus from the organizing committee, you know, the organizing committee of the event is composed of a group of the best mechanics in the league, regardless of experience and technology are impeccable, how difficult it is to get their recognition

Li Mo opened his mouth slightly, he couldn't believe the words special bonus points from the organizing committee on the light curtain, the organizing committee's score was given so quickly, it could only mean one thing, Xia Fei had already been concerned by the organizing committee in the process of answering the question, so as soon as the answer was announced, the organizing committee immediately recognized Xia Fei's answer.

Li Mo realized his gaffe, so he smiled again and said, "Good job, congratulations." ”

"Thank you, but what's the matter with the organizing committee's extra points?" Xia Fei asked curiously.

"You don't even know the existence of the organizing committee?"

"I don't know at all." Xia Fei spread his arms and said.

……

Li Mo simply introduced the situation of the organizing committee to Xia Fei, these most brilliant mechanics in the alliance have strong cultivation in their respective fields, some are good at circuit systems, some are good at energy systems, and these people will gather together to serve as the executors of the organizing committee whenever the mechanics association gold finger competition.

Li Mo was very unhappy in his heart, Xia Fei was obviously participating in the Golden Finger Cup for the first time, and it seemed that he had never studied this game in depth, and losing to such a half-hearted guy, Li Mo thought it was a great shame.

Xia Fei didn't actually understand anything, he was just looking for another opportunity to observe Li Mo's character, although he didn't know very well what role Li Mo would play in his and Avril paths, but he had always been careful and never let go of any details of the enemy.

The two of them left the test center one after another, Li Mo walked on a secluded path alone, and with a slight wave of his palm, a man also dressed in white came out lightly.

"The one named Xia Fei just now went to touch his details in person, although Bai Ye said something about him, I still feel a little worried."

The man in white touched the mustache on the side of his mouth, and said softly: "Young master, you can rest assured, I promise to dig out all the eight generations of his ancestors." ”

Li Mo nodded, and the man in white disappeared into the bushes again.

……

Xia Fei dialed Earth's phone and contacted Uncle Potter, who was working urgently.

Potter is shown in the factory, dressed in a simple overalls with a row of tools pinned to his waist, just like usual.

The two of them greeted each other briefly, and Potter also asked Xia Fei about his participation in the preliminaries, and when he learned that Xia Fei had won special points from the organizing committee in the first round, Old Porter was not too surprised, he said lightly: "You must know that the perfect solution and the special score of the organizing committee are the highest 50 points, and you only get 10 points, which shows that although the plan you proposed can perfectly solve the signal problem of the jump engine thruster, it is out of reality and not easy to achieve. Assuming that your solution is inexpensive and can solve the current problem, the bonus will definitely be higher. ”

"As for the special score of the organizing committee, you don't have to care, to show you very much that they are satisfied with your ideas, so I want to encourage you to design better works, wait for the end of the first round of the competition, you will know, in fact, the organizing committee score and perfect bonus points will be obtained by many people, there is no need to be too proud."

"Besides, the first two rounds of heats do not count towards the total score, and the really strong players will not attract attention too early, after all, this event is huge, and showing the edge too early will be regarded as an enemy by other opponents."

Xia Fei nodded and said: "Uncle Potter, I understand, I will deliberately retain some strength in the second round of preliminaries, in fact, I didn't want to make the scattering system to the extreme today, there is still a lot of room for improvement." ”

Potter laughed and said: "Very good, the preliminaries are like a warm-up, it's almost enough, your score in the first round is high enough, I think you can just give up in the second round, even if you don't have to participate, you can advance to the finals." ”

Xia Fei felt that Porter's words were also very reasonable, as long as he passed the preliminaries, he really had the strength to stay in the finals and play before it was too late.

"Uncle, how long will it take for me to make the design drawings I gave you?" Xia Fei asked.

What he said is his own radar design drawing, after three days and three nights of discussion with Harris finally determined the design, but the current design is still not perfect, there are some problems in production, a set of intelligent machine tools need three days to complete the production of this radar system, the efficiency is extremely low.

Potter frowned, pointed to the machine next to him and said: "Your design is too complicated, this machine has been running since yesterday, and today is the fourth time to enter maintenance, if you want mass production, you need a more streamlined design, I will keep an eye on here, give me another day, I promise to give you a feasible plan, although it can't improve efficiency, but it can produce things." ”

Xia Fei said sincerely: "Uncle Potter, everything is up to you, we must study how to debug the machine, although I am not prepared to make the directional meson radar system a blockbuster this time, but at least I must be prepared." ”

Potter drank all the water handed by his assistant, apparently in a state of extreme fatigue from the long hours of work.

"Directional meson radar, this name seems to be good, but it is a bit tongue-twisting, if it still has a very bad meaning in Charlotte, or Jinnaze, I think you should rename this radar system."

Because this new type of radar uses variable mesons as the outgoing energy carrier, and uses the power super-amplification technology of Titan-level radar and the directional conduction technology of Nether Bell, Xia Fei directly gave the name of directional meson radar.

This name is named according to the characteristics of the radar system, there is nothing wrong with it, but the well-informed old Porter still jumped out of it, the radar system is also a commodity, if the name is not auspicious enough, it will naturally affect the willingness of potential buyers to buy.

Xia Fei thought for a while and said, "Uncle Potter, why don't you name this radar system." ”

Potter nodded and said: "All radar systems in the world are derived from the sonar detection technology of bats, although after so many years of evolution, the radar system is no longer like before, both function and structure have been far away from sonar, but we should never forget the origin of the radar system, it is better to call it bat-type radar, black bat, this name will not cause bad associations, but also can give people a sense of mystery." ”

"Good Black Bat Radar System, the name is really good, so it's decided." Xia Fei said excitedly.

Potter waved his hand at Xia Fei, "You hurry up and get busy, I'm going to start working too, remember to find a machine tool with the same model, the production of black bat radar is extremely technically demanding, if there is a slight mistake, it will fall short, this is the first time I have done such a complicated thing." ”

Closing the light curtain, Xia Fei immediately searched for nearby factories and equipment of the same model on the star network, because it takes about a month to go one way from the earth to the capital star circle, if the samples produced by the factory are sent here, it will inevitably take a long time, and he can't catch up with the last round of the search competition, so Xia Fei can only settle for the second, Uncle Porter will first debug the machine tool successfully, and then Xia Fei will find the same machine tool locally for production.

Who would have thought that it would be so difficult to find an identical machine tool in the bustling Capital Star Circle, after all, this is the most developed place in the alliance, and the quantum company is not the most advanced model used in order to save costs, and this type of machine tool in the Capital Star Circle has long been eliminated.

The search system worked continuously for more than half an hour, and finally found a factory on the verge of bankruptcy 1,700 light years away from the capital star circle, and after telephone negotiation, the owner of the factory agreed that Xia Fei would rent a machine tool at a price of 10,000 star coins per week, and it could be modified at will, after all, these old-fashioned equipment were ready to sell scrap iron, and Xia Fei didn't care if he modified it slightly.

Avril knew that Xia Fei was going to leave for a few days and persuaded her father and grandfather to go with him, she had been busy with work for the past few days and failed to fulfill her promise to go shopping with Avril, Xia Fei was a little reluctant to go, anyway, there was no risk in the vicinity of the capital star circle this time, so he didn't refuse her.

The group arrived aboard Xia Fei's Vampire, and Xia Fei knew that there was another team of people from Starlink Company following behind them, but they didn't show up for fear that Avril would be angry.

This abandoned factory is much larger than Xia Fei imagined, covering an area of tens of thousands of hectares, and there are thousands of intelligent machine tools of the same model alone, and most of them are eighty percent new.

Xia Fei inquired and found out that the reason for the collapse of the factory was not because of poor management, but that the owner of the factory found a little wife who was more than fifty years younger than him, and the two divorced after being discovered by the eldest wife.

This is called losing the lady and breaking the soldiers, and the so-called red face and disaster are nothing more than that.

Xia Fei had a wit, don't look at this factory with a dilapidated look, but the performance of the machine in it is very good, if it is placed in the new workshop of Earth Quantum Company, it will definitely save a lot of purchase funds.

Xia Fei found the factory owner and briefly said what he meant, this benevolent brother has been forced by the bank to jump off the building, and these machines are not new, and they can only be recycled as old metal if they are processed, the two hit it off, Xia Fei took down all the more than 10,000 sets of old machine tools at a price ten percent higher than that of scrap metal, and the cost was only one-tenth of the purchase of new machine tools, even if the freight was added, it could save more than eighty percent, and the factory owner also gave Xia Fei the maintenance parts of the entire warehouse.

Urgently contact Sarah and ask her to send Quantum's transportation fleet here in batches, these machine tools are not large, and it only takes about four months to be able to arrive in full, and the company's daily transportation business will not be delayed.

Anyway, Quantum's new factories are being built one after another, and sooner or later these machines will be useful.

After this incident, Xia Fei suddenly discovered that the Capital Star Circle actually contained great business opportunities, so he discussed with Charlie and sent Sunny over to purchase mechanical products used by the company in these most prosperous places.

Xia Fei was sweating in the workshop, and the video communication system was always on, which was convenient for real-time communication with the old Porter of the earth.

Avril ran around excitedly, helping Xia Fei deliver tea for a while, and helping him find tools for a while, when did this poor daughter ever do this kind of work? However, because Xia Fei was by her side, Avril didn't care about herself.

So a strange scene was formed in the workshop, a group of bodyguards and servants were busy taking care of Avril, but Avril was taking care of Xia Fei wholeheartedly, which made people laugh and cry.

With Avril by his side, Xia Fei felt very happy, no matter how much work he worked, he would never feel tired, but he didn't know,
