Chapter 20 The Status of the Mechanic

The fat man and Milan turned their heads to look, only to see a middle-aged man with several bodyguards arguing with a short young man. The two men argued about the effect of the mech's size and weight on speed. This problem is actually very simple, the appearance, weight, engine power, energy distribution, electronic system, transmission and drive system and even the structure of this mecha at the beginning of the design will affect the speed, just like people and horses, horses are heavier than people, larger than people, but people can't outrun horses after all, and elephants are bigger than cheetahs and heavier than cheetahs, but they can't outrun cheetahs. This is completely clear, but it changes its flavor when it is placed on the same mecha.

As far as mechs are concerned, light off-road travel speed and road travel speed are two concepts, and long-distance travel with full power and short-distance dash with instantaneous acceleration are also two concepts. The driving methods of humanoid mechas, beast-type mechas, and insect-type mechas are even more disparate, and they can't be argued with such general reasoning at all.

These two guys are obviously novices, the level is both stinky and big, the rich middle-aged man said that the greater the power, the faster he runs, the mecha has long thighs, and when he takes a small mecha two steps, the short young man retorted loudly, saying that the smaller he is, the less affected by gravity and habitual surname, the flexible surname is far higher than the large mecha, the explosive power is better and the speed is faster, and the miniaturization of modern engines does not need to be assembled by large body size at all. The two frothed at each other, and both tried their best to accuse each other of being ridiculous.

The fat man laughed so much that his stomach cramped, these two people quarreled loudly as if no one was around, constantly interrupting each other's speech, but the content of the quarrel was not right, the concept of speed that the middle-aged man said and the concept of explosive speed that the young man said were completely different, one side ignored the flexibility and the other party ignored the durability, but the two people quarreled very lively, and the people on the side also listened to it with relish, and even the guys who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic joined the two sides from time to time, and everyone joined in the fun.

Since the concept of speed was completely different from the beginning, the natural reason was different, but these two guys came to the strong, and gradually there was a tendency to personal attacks, and after the quarrel, many people joined the battle group, most of the young people who agreed with them were small people, and those who agreed with the middle-aged people were all tall people, plus those who deliberately made trouble, the two sides quarreled upside down. Some of the more senior mecha players interjected several times to explain the reason, but they were all pushed back by these guys. The fat man secretly asked Milan: "Why are these guys at this level?" ”

Milan covered his mouth and said with a smile as he listened: "There are originally some rich people who can play mechas, and there are even fewer who are proficient in mecha maintenance, do you think everyone has such a good opportunity for you to enter the laboratory to read drawings?" Now the excellent mechanics are surrounded by various super enterprises, after all, there are too many disciplines involved in mecha maintenance and modification, it is difficult for someone to be able to specialize in various disciplines, and the folk mechanical maintenance and modification engineers are known as masters regardless of their level, and the majority of those who have just debuted have been praised to the sky with a little fame, and this maintenance center is not how high the mechanic's technology is, but the team is famous for its huge division of labor and cooperation. ”

If the fat man thought about it carefully, it seemed that if he hadn't been trained as a soldier in the maintenance battalion, and had not been forced by Boswell to learn theory and read drawings in the laboratory, maybe even these two guys would be inferior to these things. After all, others are still senior mecha players, and they haven't even touched mecha before, but they just like to buy some mecha books to read, and they don't know anything about the internal structure and structural parameters of mechas. The concept of the speed of the mecha and the speed of the flying car is completely different, the structure and drive mode are two types, the development of private mecha to the present, there are thousands of models, and the models of the same size and weight are also different in speed performance, and it is difficult for novices to understand the truth if they do not have systematic research.

Seeing that these people were noisy and no staff came out to stop them, the fat man said in his heart: "No wonder the business of this maintenance center is so hot, dare to claim to be invincible, if compared with these players, it is indeed invincible, if I retire in the future, I will also open such a maintenance center, and call myself super invincible, wouldn't it be a storm?" ”

Both sides quarreled, and the little young man said, "Don't believe it! I'm telling you, if you don't believe us two runs, you're taller than me, see which of us can run faster! This messy truth actually made the middle-aged man stammer, he was used to enjoying it, and he was almost fed when he was eating, and at this time someone wanted to find himself to run, which is the first difficult thing in the world, how to call him? Fortunately, one of his bodyguards was a well-proportioned and sturdy man who stood up and said to the short young man, "I'm taller than you, why don't we run away?" ”

The short young man didn't expect to wrap himself in, he ran with the middle-aged man, and he was full of certainty of winning, but the guy in front of him was exactly the same as the 100-meter champion, if he really wanted to compete, these two short legs would turn as fast as a windmill, and his eyes wandered around, looking forward to the comrades around him also coming forward to compete with the middle-aged man's bodyguards instead of him.

The fat man was so noisy by them that he didn't have the heart to visit, so he played a prank heart and said loudly: "I'll compare with you!" ”

This was said to the short young man, and he was so angry that the short man was smoking, damn, it was okay for someone else to bully me with the champion body, what kind of fun are you making a fat man, and he said at the moment: "Okay!" I'll compare you to you! You're taller than me, heavier than me, see which of us can outrun!" The middle-aged man saw that the victory was in hand, and suddenly a fat man stole the limelight halfway, shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, it's still my people who compare with him, you can't!" The fat man said angrily: "Why can't I do it, I am one step taller than him and heavier than him, when he runs two steps, I have to compare!" ”

"Not only will I compare myself to him, but I will also compare myself to yours!" The fat man is stern: "It's not okay to bully our short people!" The people around him roared, what is wrong with this fat man, he just provoked the short and the tall, where is he standing? But I don't want this fat man to be a bastard at all, and I have nothing to do to be happy. The bodyguard was quite confident, shook his head and said, "You can't outrun me, you're too fat!" The fat man said angrily: "No, it has to be compared!" You bully Lao Tzu to be short, not to mention, and look down on Lao Tzu Fat, today I want you to know what a vigorous fat man is! ”

The middle-aged man also came and said: "Ah San! on, let this fat man lose convincingly! ”

Milan laughed so hard that he couldn't move on the fat man, and the two were hugged out of the hall and came to an open space in the mecha maintenance waiting area, the fat man pretended to make a set of body clothes, Milan stood next to him, crying and laughing in front of everyone, and wanted to strangle this nasty dead fat man to death.

A good deed person drew a starting line, measured a hundred meters, found a mecha as a referee, and used the mecha optical scan to determine the results. The three of them stood at the starting line, and suddenly, the rich middle-aged man shouted, "Slow! Everyone was stunned, but saw him walk up to the fat man and said: "Originally, nothing is wrong with you, who knows that you have to come to join in the fun, Ah San lost, I will give you a [Hurricane], what if you lose?" The crowd suddenly became lively, and a [Hurricane] private mecha that was just designed to roll off the assembly line in 2059 was a treasure that many people dreamed of. The fat man was stunned for a moment, and looked at what it meant to have a lottery, where did he have any money, and was about to sternly refuse to denounce gambling, Milan next to him was not happy, and shouted: "We will also compensate you for a [hurricane] if we lose." ”

As soon as Milan's words fell, two voices sounded next to him at the same time, and said in unison: "I'll come out of this [hurricane]!" The fat man and Milan looked back, and one of the two people who were looking at each other for the same thing was an acquaintance, and it was Shaodong Mills of the Smye Grand Hotel. Next to him stood a few of his friends who were smiling.

The other person didn't know him, and the fat man didn't find out when he had seen this person after thinking about it for a long time, and he was stunned for a while. Mills actually supported himself, it was a little strange, but he didn't expect to take on a strange old man, seeing that this guy is not young, it doesn't seem to be fun, when did fat running become so popular?

Mills walked up to the fat man and said, "Brother Tian, I was ignorant before, and whether I won or lost in this matter today, it will be regarded as making amends to you, I wanted to tell you last time, but I didn't have time." Among the people present, he and his friends were the ones who knew the identity of the fat man the most, although this kid had less eyes, but after all, he grew up in a merchant family, and he knew what to do at this time with a little turn of his brain. Besides, they are friends who want to be fat from the bottom of their hearts.

The strange old man stood by and smiled silently.

The fat man nodded helplessly at Mills, a little dumbfounded, and accidentally made a duck that was driven to the shelf. Damn, if you let it go, you have to win if you die, and if you lose, you will lose face.

At the sound of an order, the three of them rushed out like arrows off the string. After all, the fat man has received special professional training, although the short young man is very flexible, but he can't be compared with him, he was left behind by the fat man within thirty meters, less than seventy meters, the bodyguard Ah San can't keep up with the fat man who is running desperately, when the fat man takes the lead and crosses the finish line like a rhinoceros in estrus, everyone is speechless, never expected this fat man to be so powerful.

The middle-aged man was even more stunned, he didn't expect Ah San to lose, and what was even more annoying was that he actually lost to someone in a hurry [Hurricane]. He doesn't care about a mecha, but after all, he thinks he is a suave and dashing upper-class person, and his face is tight. The fat man grinned and walked back, a [Hurricane] mech was so easy to get his hands on, he really wanted to run two more times.

It's a pity that the middle-aged man was not ready to be the wronged leader twice, so he sulked and summoned a maintenance center staff and said, "Bring him a [Hurricane] and put the account on my head." The fat man said to the middle-aged man seriously: "See, the real speed is the fat mecha!" You're going to work on this in the future! ”

As soon as he heard the fat man's words, the audience next to him laughed, and the strange old man couldn't help it, and said loudly: "This gentleman is joking with everyone, the modification of the mecha involves many aspects, and it is not just the influence of the mecha's size and weight. If you don't understand, the center has a long-term lecture on metallurgy, and you are welcome to listen to it when you have time. After speaking, he smiled bitterly and whispered to the fat man: "Mr. Master, don't fool us, if you really change it to a fat mecha, this speed can't go up Our signboard must be smashed by these guys." ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you call me?" ”

The strange old man smiled: "Master! You are definitely a master of mech modification! I've been listening to you for a while, and what you're talking about in every mecha is the point, and your insights simply make me admire, and lo and behold, I've recorded it all. As he spoke, he took out a miniature recording device and clicked playback, and the voice inside was exactly what the fat man and Milan were talking about the pros and cons of these mechas.

"Are you ......" The fat man was a little strange, this person had nothing to do with his own recording. The strange old man smiled: "My name is Hescott, and I am the owner of this repair center. ”

The fat man was startled, but he didn't expect this trouble to make the boss of the other family come out, and he put on a flattered look and smiled: "Yo, invincible boss, it's really disrespectful, I didn't trouble you, right?" ”

Hescott also knew that the name of his center was a bit offended by the masters, and said with a smile: "The name of this center is made to make you laugh." ”

The fat man thought about it, after all, people supported themselves just now, and this favor can be done kindly, so he waved his hand and said: "Hehe, just kidding, but ...... The modded mechs you have on display are pretty good, but they're not invincible after all. Some people quarrel, these arguments are actually very simple, you staff come out one or two to talk about it, but I think they all don't care and ignore it, as if something is not quite right. ”

Mills and a few of his friends also came up, and the more they listened, the more stunned they became, when did Lieutenant Fat become a mecha modification master again, but think about it carefully, people rescued so many people from behind enemy lines, is it possible to scatter them in two clicks! Hearing that this old man was the boss, Mills said: "It just so happens that my mecha has been modified here for almost a month, why hasn't it come out yet?" ”

Hescott hesitated, looked around and said, "Well, there are some things that are not appropriate here, so let's just go to my office." ”

Fat Man and Milan originally wanted to know more about the private mech, but they agreed, and a group of people followed Hescott to his office. Closing the door, Hescott said with a wry smile: "This is also a helpless thing, now there are fewer and fewer private mechanics, as far as my center is concerned, if it is not for the team, it will not be able to play at all." Finally, there are one or two skilled ones, and it didn't take long for them to be poached by those super enterprises, and the talent training system there is formal, and the salary is high, who wants to stay in the private modification shop to do it. In the past two days, the work has not been able to keep up at all. ”

The fat man said strangely: "I see that your business here is good!" ”

While pouring tea for them himself, Hescott said, "I'm a tall man in a short man, and the big guy has nowhere to go, so he can only come to me." He sighed and continued, "In two days, I will have to leave a few more people here, and I will see that there will be no pillars." The Eastern District is preparing to open a maintenance center, which is larger than my here, and it is said that the organic nail manufacturing company is behind it, not to mention the old master, even the newly debuted mechanics are also going over there. ”

One of Mills' friends reacted quickly and laughed, "You didn't make up your mind to let this master come to you as your pillar, did you?" ”

Seeing that someone was talking about his thoughts, Hescott blushed and said, "Ahem...... This, I don't know where the master was originally raised, if he could...... Alas, I couldn't recruit anyone for a few days, and I'm also flustered now, making everyone laugh. ”

The fat man and Milan looked at each other and smiled, and said secretly: "This old guy will plan to dish." ”

Mills shook his hand and said, "You better dispel this idea, knowing that he is ...... Don't say it, say it and scare you to death. Looking at his smug expression, it seemed that he knew the identity of the fat man was a very remarkable thing.

Hescott has been a maintenance center for decades, where would he not know how to do business, he immediately changed his mind, smiled and took out a card and handed it to the fat man: "This is the VIP card of our center, and I have all the expenses you have here." If you are interested, you can come here at any time to drink tea and help with some guidance! ”

The fat man was a little confused, and only now did he know what kind of status a clever mechanic was in the eyes of these folk repair shops and mecha players, and he just discussed it with Milan, and he was almost offered by others as an ancestor, and this treatment was too suspenseful. At a loss, Milan had already taken the card from Hescott's hand and said with a smile: "Okay! As long as you, the boss, are not too troublesome, we will come to disturb you at any time, and we will not talk about pointing or not, let's study together. ”

The fat man understands Milan's thoughts, although the drawings and materials in the laboratory are complete, but after all, the main direction of attack is military mechas, and the transformation ideas in the future must be combined with the experience of private mechas, what is more suitable for research than such a center specializing in private mecha maintenance? Not only can you get in touch with different types of mechas, you can observe different modification ideas, and even the internal structure and other system components of these mechas can be seen as much as you want, which is indeed a rare opportunity.

Seeing that Milan agreed, Hescott smiled from ear to ear, and said to Mills: "I'll call your mecha to the workshop to ask, and I will definitely let them get it out first!" He picked up the phone and was about to ask Mills for his mech maintenance number, when suddenly, the office door was pushed open, and a staff member ran in out of breath and shouted, "Mr. Hescott, someone is making trouble!" ”
