That night, Jiang Fan took advantage of Shi Wenyuan's fact that he hadn't gotten off work yet, changed into a training uniform and went to Shi Wenyuan's office.

After Shi Wenyuan saw Jiang Fan, he said unexpectedly: "Aren't you going to help Director Han as a consultant in the medical building?" The special leave for you has not been used up yet, so you don't need to come back in a hurry. ”

Jiang Fan smiled, and then said, "Actually, I came to you today because I had something else to tell you. ”

As soon as Shi Wenyuan looked at Jiang Fan's expression, he felt that this kid must not have any good farts in his heart.

He rubbed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose, and said, "What's the matter, you can say it, I'm mentally prepared." ”

Jiang Fan hurriedly approached, poured Shi Wenyuan a cup of tea first, and then said: "Chief of Staff, I want to know how many people in our ace army have been forced to retire or change jobs due to injuries over the years?" ”

Shi Wenyuan's eyebrows bulged with a Sichuan character, and he raised his eyelids to look at Jiang Fan: "Why are you asking this?" ”

Jiang Fan sighed and said: "I've been thinking about one thing recently, the selection of the ace unit is already quite difficult, and the tasks performed are even more dangerous, and situations like the three special forces seniors must happen from time to time." Let's not talk about how much money our country needs to invest in cultivating an ace special forces, let's just say that the loss of these people is likely to lead to a shortage of manpower when we carry out our tasks. ”

Jiang Fan chattered and analyzed for a long time, and Shi Wenyuan said helplessly: "What you said has actually been thought about for a long time, and some of those retired special forces feel that their self-esteem has been frustrated, and they are unwilling to take it with them in the army, so they retire and go home." But because of their special status, even if they go home, they can only enjoy the most basic military treatment, and some of them are under very difficult conditions. ”

Listening to those soldiers who were born and died in the past, now living such a miserable life, Jiang Fan's heart is quite uncomfortable.

He said, "Can't you just think of a way?" ”

When Shi Wenyuan heard this, he raised his head and said, "What can you do?" Artificial limb? This is the best way we can think of at the moment, but it will take a long time for the research results to reach the level of special forces. ”

Jiang Fan noticed that Shi Wenyuan still had great hopes for intelligent prosthetics, but the current research and development speed was indeed too slow.

Jiang Fan hesitated for a moment and then said, "Do you want to invest more experience in the research and development of prosthetics?" ”

Shi Wenyuan didn't expect that Jiang Fan would ask himself this question.

He squinted at Jiang Fan and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Jiang Fan smiled slightly and said: "You should know my identity resume, I have been developing confidential projects for a period of time, and I am not convenient to say what this is." But I would like to say that maybe I can help the prosthetic R&D department. ”

Shi Wenyuan's eyes lit up instantly.

He got up from the chair excitedly, propped up the table with both hands, and looked at Jiang Fan: "Are you sure?" I take this very seriously, and if you dare to lie to me, the price will be quite severe. ”

Jiang Fan said: "I don't need to lie to you because of this kind of thing, I do have experience in this area, but after all, the subject categories of research and development are different, although they are both high-end research and development, there is still a certain span between the two, so I also need time." ”

This made Shi Wenyuan a little worried.

The special forces of the ace army are already rare, and Jiang Fan is still the object of their next preparation, so he will be sent to the R&D department for the development of the project, in fact, Shi Wenyuan is still unwilling.

R&D is not surprising to say less about one and a half years, but more to say three years and five years.

But what if what Jiang Fan said is true? He was able to develop what they needed, and that helped them quite a bit.

After all, there have been more than 20 people in the ace unit who have retired and returned home due to special reasons, and if these people come back, it will be equivalent to directly improving the combat effectiveness of the three squadrons.

What if it takes two or three years?

Shi Wenyuan weighed it for a long time, Jiang Fan looked at him in front of the table with his hand on his chin and pondered, about a minute later, after weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he finally said: "I thought about it carefully, what you said is very reasonable, and it is also very attractive to me, but the time I can give you is limited." ”

The next time, the two blurted out at the same time.

Jiang Fan: "One year." ”

Shi Wenyuan: "Three years." ”

Then, both of them were stunned.

Shi Wenyuan immediately asked, "You just said a year?" Are you sure you can see the results in a year? ”

Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment, and thought: "I knew that you said three years, so I would have compromised for two years." However, since I have already said it, there is absolutely no reason to change my words, and the shorter the time, the more high-intensity improvement it is for me. ”

Jiang Fan nodded, and said fruitfully: "Yes, in one year, I can definitely develop an intelligent prosthetic that is completely no different from a normal arm." But "

Shi Wenyuan waited for the following.

Jiang Fan said: "But maybe in terms of funding, I need you to approve more, although I will cooperate with the current prosthetic research and development department, but we are developing two different systems, they should not have extra funds to approve for me." ”

Shi Wenyuan knew that this should be an immeasurable expense, but he still gritted his teeth and asked, "How much do you want?" ”

Jiang Fan hesitated for a moment and stretched out three fingers: "These first." ”

Shi Wenyuan slapped the table and said angrily: "You kid is crazy? Their prosthetic R&D department has only so much money for a year, you want so much in one go, where can I get it for you? ”

Jiang Fan said: "Chief of Staff, I'm different from them, I only have a year, there are a lot of materials I need to get again, I know you should be very difficult, if you really can't do it, I can pay out of my own pocket, after all, this is a major matter for the country and the people, I and my family still take out the money." ”

Shi Wenyuan's face was even more uncomfortable than eating a plate of flies.

Although he knew that Jiang Fan was playing the emotional card, if he hadn't made up his mind, he wouldn't dare to say anything about this kind of work that would take care of him.

After sighing five times in a row, Shi Wenyuan said: "Okay, I'll settle the money matter for you, but this money is too big, I'm afraid they won't give it to me easily, have you thought about your own risk-taking?" ”

Jiang Fan said: "Don't worry, I will definitely let you see the real thing beyond imagination within a year, and if it is not completed, I will bear all the costs myself." ”

Shi Wenyuan looked at Jiang Fan dumbfounded: "You kid has really made a lot of money." ”

Shi Wenyuan admired Jiang Fan even more, and gave him a thumbs up.
