Chapter 549: I Don't Love Gem Purple Potato Essence (Part II)
In Mercury's base, Stark looked at the three-dimensional map, marked different spaceships with different colors, and pointed to the next few spaceships and said, "These spaceships that seem to be chemical fuels can just be in line with the current technology of human beings......
"The Divine Spear Bureau wants to select five ships after conducting a preliminary investigation, Russia also has five, and Europe actually wants a total of seven? No, at most five of them, Africa, Australia, the Middle East, ......"
"Two more ships for joint research, Nick! Nick! Remember to arrange security personnel and don't let them fight......"
Seeing that many of the ships already had the color of the markers, Stark took two steps back, and what appeared to him was more ships that had not yet been marked.
He propped his hands on the experimental bench in front of him, looking at the ships that had not yet been divided, and felt a kind of happy annoyance.
In the past, there were many people and few spaceships, or there were no spaceships at all, and the frigates of the Kree people were not something that the current human civilization could study, and even if scientists could go up to investigate, it would only be an investigation, and not a single part would be unloaded.
After that, with the ships of the Zetarians and the ships of the dark elves, there was much more abundance, but there were still more people and less porridge.
In the past few days, there have been fierce disputes in the conference room of the United Nations, at first, they wanted to persuade each other with reason, but later, they found that physical persuasion was more realistic, and now, the requirement that Congress send people to the United Nations is to undergo combat training, otherwise it will be difficult to have an advantage.
And since Logie expanded the scope of fraud to the whole universe, mankind has harvested a lot of low-end spaceships, some of which are relatively complete, and some are broken into parts, some of which are piled up near Mercury, and some are piled up near Pluto.
With a "squeak", the door opened, and Schiller, who was wearing a white lab coat, walked in, still holding a medical record book in his hand, Stark looked up at him and asked, "You are done, why do you suddenly think about doing a psychological examination for the staff of the Holy of Holies?" ”
"Anyway, the cost is reimbursed by the United Nations, and it will not be done in vain." After Schiller walked over, he put the medical record book aside and said, "What's more, our new alien employee named Black Dwarf has a big psychological problem, and if he can solve his psychological problem, Thanos may have to thank me." ”
Stark snorted coldly and said, "If his psychological problem is really solved, Thanos won't have to pay him a salary, of course he has to thank you." ”
"Don't talk about me, how are you doing?" Schiller asked.
Stark looked at the three-dimensional map and said, "The United Nations asked me to give advice, I have distributed all the ships, everyone has a share, and there is so much left." ”
"Can't you divide it all? More than a dozen ships per person. ”
Stark rolled his eyes and said, "I said a long time ago that people who only screw light bulbs should not enter my lab. ”
Stark began to explain: "Scientific research is not about the more materials, the better, many projects need to be gradual, the initial project is not completed, then it cannot be carried out, sufficient materials can speed up the research, but the speed is also limited, not one person and ten spaceships, the research can be completed tomorrow, if that's the case, what else do I have a headache?" ”
Eventually, however, Stark conveyed his proposal to the United Nations.
After several rounds of quarrels in the conference room, it was finally determined that the upper three permanent members of the five permanent countries have five ships per person, and Europe has a total of three, but they have the right of first refusal, and the other continents are basically one or two, except for Africa, where Wakanda is located, to take one more, because Wakanda has a strong scientific and technological advantage.
Knowing that the results had been decided, Stark slapped the table and said, "Gather all the researchers, have a meeting!" ”
After Jarvis sent out Stark's invitation to the meeting, he didn't get a reply for half a day.
Connors called, saying that he was busy dismantling the first ship, that Banner had already boarded the Zetarian ship to investigate, and that Reed had terminated his near-Earth research project in order to study the ship, and that he was handing over the information.
And Jarvis also sent back an even worse news, he said: "There is news from the Divine Spear Bureau that their five groups of scientific researchers have all been prepared and will be escorted on board the spacecraft by the Divine Spear Bureau." ”
Stark looked up at his watch, now it is only three hours before the results are out, and the people have already boarded the ship, and their own side is still scattered, fighting separately, even if it is divided into five groups, one person with one, but the team members have not been decided, let alone the time schedule and research plan.
Stark sighed deeply, he opened the Avengers' comms, and said, "Avengers, assemble!" ”
"What? Why assemble? What's wrong? Steve was the first to respond to him.
"Now, everybody, go and bring all the scientists you can find here, whatever they're doing, whatever their reason, try to reason with them, but if necessary, you can use physics."
Stark straightened up, lowered his eyes, looked at the map and said, "Obviously, a game has already started, and I don't want to lose." ”
Like Stark said, a game has begun.
This game is not only about the scientific research ability of each country, but also the organizational ability and speed of the country.
To some extent, the term "technology tree" is very vivid, technology must develop step by step, you must first point the skills in the front, and then point to the skills in the back, so as to avoid the technical fault, to avoid the embarrassing scene that the ship will not be repaired if it is broken.
In this case, whoever clicks the first skill first will be able to click the second skill faster, and then the third skill will be faster, that is, one step first, step by step.
The level of research is important, but if they are all scattered and do their own work, on the science and technology tree, one person points to the left, one person points to the right, and some people point to the other people, they don't communicate with each other, they don't breathe, they don't know anything, they mess around, then they wait to be dumped by others.
However, the vast majority of research institutes and researchers who receive private investment do this, even if they are official research institutes on the surface, there are different types of capital behind them, and what capital sees is not that they get a bigger cake after going out of the universe together, but that the person who grabs the cake first wins.
Therefore, the focus of their research technology is to make their own profits, and they are more willing to develop the technology they think is more beneficial, hoping to exchange less investment for greater returns.
However, if everyone thinks like this, then there will be many contradictions in cooperation, so in the beginning, the research carried out by most countries in the world is a mess.
Many private research institutes believe that the recovery period of this event is too long, and the income that can be recovered is unknown, and it is not a high-quality investment, and many research institutes feel that they will incur a lot of losses by stopping their current projects on Earth and turning to the development of spaceflight.
In short, the initial chaos screened out many research organizations that had no long-term goals, did not have sufficient funds, or even simply had no brains, and the vast majority of the rest were backed by state-backed research institutes.
And the only special thing is the research organization composed of superheroes, and now, the Avengers and the heroes related to them are relatively independent, not under the control of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the government, so their research is also independent.
The Avengers Research Institute, which is composed of Stark, Connors, and Banner, is composed of three super geniuses, and has monopolized three spaceships for research.
Among them, Stark does not need to divide these three ships, he has more materials to study, and has even begun to crack the secrets of the Kerry frigate.
If Connors and Banner were to lead a research group, there was another ship that was empty, and Stark wanted to find an equally talented scientist to take over the ship.
Hearing the news, Nick couldn't wait to introduce Stark to someone.
Upon arriving at Stark's office, Nick clapped his hands, attracting Stark's attention, who was intently reading the materials.
"You're here." Stark said as he lowered his head and closed the cap of his pen.
Stark just looked up and found that Nick's back was empty, he looked left and right, and found that there was no one else, Stark asked a little puzzled: "What about people, what about the scientist I want?" ”
"He's right here, can you find him?" Nick said with a smile.
"Don't play this with me, Jarvis, Scan."
"Scanning...... Discover special life responses...... The screen has been cast. ”
With a bang, the projection screen opened, and a person in a strange uniform appeared on the screen, and his background was even stranger, which turned out to be the texture of Nick's clothes.
Stark raised an eyebrow, rolled his eyelids, and looked Nick up and down, and at this moment, a very, very small figure came out of Nick's pocket.
After jumping onto the table, he waved at Stark and said, "Hello, I'm Hank Pym, you can also call me by my code name, Ant-Man." ”
Stark frowned, narrowed his eyes, and bent down hard, keeping his face close to the table, before he finally saw the small figure, it was not an ant, but a person as big as an ant.
As Stark's face leaned over, Pym crossed his arms and said, "You should be little Tony, right?" You should have been young when I left S.H.I.E.L.D., so you don't remember me, I was a colleague with your father, Howard......"
Nick hurriedly walked up, but he didn't know what position to use to cover Pym's mouth, he could only knock on the table to remind Pym to shut up, but by this time, Stark had already raised his head and shouted, "Jarvis, fly swatter!" ”
"Hugh", a fly swatter was thrown by the mechanical arm, Stark caught it and waved it, Pym quickly pulled it up, dodged in the air, and shouted: "What are you going to do?" I'm not a fly! ”
Stark plucked his ears and said, "Really? But I just heard someone buzzing......"
Pym glanced at Stark's face, flew into Nick's ear with a "whoosh", and said to him, "What's the situation?" The two of them don't have a good relationship? ”
"Of course, the two of them have exactly the same personalities, do you think their relationship will be good?"
"Okay, I see."
Pym immediately flew up to Stark and said:
"I'll admit, Howard is a genius too, and the kind of flying cars he makes are quite interesting, but compared to me, it's far behind, especially in terms of artificial intelligence, which I've been working on lately......"
"What are you researching?" Another voice sounded by the door, and Schiller pushed the door and walked in, staring at Ant-Man in mid-air, repeating his own question: "What have you been working on lately?" ”
"Artificial intelligence, what's wrong?" Pym asked, puzzled.
"Did you get any results?"
"Oh, not yet, but ......"
"Really?" Schiller narrowed his eyes, walked over, looked down into Pym's eyes, and asked, "Did you not, or did you forget?" ”
Or...... Say someone made you forget? ”
