Chapter 197: Someone Else's Child
The elevator stopped with a "ding".
Li Pan adjusted his breath, straightened his formal clothes, tied his shoelaces, unfastened his cufflinks, and prepared to fight out of the Tower of Night with a bloody path against the siege of the Yang Electron Cannon and the five major companies.
Then the elevator door opened, revealing the signboard of the Science Ethics Committee, and the old man in a white coat and beard stood at the elevator door, holding his glasses and reaching out on his own initiative.
"See you again, Manager Li."
"Doctor, what a coincidence. Oh, you're still working overtime, aren't you? β
Seeing that it was Dr. Nimitz, who had saved his life, Li Pan also restrained his murderous aura and shook hands with him politely.
"This time, the contemptible person is waiting for you, let's talk about those SMS first, please come in."
Dr. Nimitz is also the kind of steel science and technology man who does research, and he goes straight to the point when he comes up.
In the end, Li Pan was embarrassed to shirk other people's things, so he followed Dr. Nimitz into the SEC office.
The core mission of the SEC Science Ethics Committee is to seize prohibited technologies that violate human ethics.
But they are not witch hunting in the Middle Ages, and in fact all SEC members are themselves top scholars in the heavens and are not opposed to technological innovation.
It is true that as representatives of the company, they also have the task of maintaining the technical advantages of the committee members, but objectively speaking, the existence of the SEC does concentrate the resources and wisdom of human society, selectively and purposefully carry out research and development of specific technical routes, accelerate the progress and development of society as a whole, and effectively avoid the 0 era of the earth. That kind of black technology is rampant, and the internal friction of endless world wars.
And where did so many prohibited technologies come from these years, the so-called non-accumulation of silicon steps, even thousands of miles. The development of the productive forces is gradual and progressive. It's fire refining real gold, tempered thousands of times, not that you can dig gold with a chisel and a chisel.
So more often than not, the SEC's main business is technical appraisal and patent registration.
In recent years, major companies have been engaged in fierce technology competition. Competition, you steal mine, I copy yours. Commercial espionage, technology, espionage, intelligence, businessmen, infiltrating search officers, everywhere. Any company that does not have 180 internal ghosts lurking, it is a manifestation of incompetitiveness.
Therefore, the company also spends a lot of money to register technology patents, and SEC researchers also have to analyze various newly declared patented technologies, identify the newly developed products, what level of technology they belong to, and which companies' patents are infringed. And this is a matter of sky-high patent licensing, and it is not allowed to be sloppy at all.
By the way, TheM Monster Company is a frequent visitor to the SEC, after all, the development of human science and technology has been on the verge of limit, and the new technology products declared in recent years are all based on the research and development of monsters, so TheM also occupies the underlying patent monopoly. And the latest technology products are the most profitable.
Therefore, even if TheM does nothing, those tech giants under the SEC have to pay sky-high royalties every year. This is much more direct benefit than buying and selling monsters.
Otherwise, HT Chaos Technology, Baboon Group, VK National Prosthetics, TSC Tianhan Starship, GEN Gene Revolution, the five major technology companies on the front line of the heavens, would have withdrawn from the bidding so neatly.
After all, if the monster company is really annoyed and the technology transfer license is suspended, the loss is not something that can be made up for by a few hundred trillion yuan.
"Do you want something to drink? Black tea? Coffee? β
"No need, Shimizu will do, thank you ......"
Dr. Nimitz was really not polite at all, he directly brought Li Pan to the office, asked the robot to serve a glass of water, and he directly turned on the holographic projection, and projected the blueprints of the four SMS testing machines, patent authorization and asset registration documents, as well as the video of the Chitengu stealing the body captured by the micro drone.
"To get back to the point, these SMS are the assets independently developed by our institute, legal tax payment certificates and production records, which can be sent to your judicial affairs for confirmation."
Wow, that's an iron man......
People put the facts on such a table, reasoned, and were so bright that they had to paste the proof of assets on their faces and ask for things, but Li Pan was a little embarrassed.
"Ah......h Ah, it turned out that mecha was yours, I thought it was dawn......"
Dr. Nimitz motioned for Li Pan to wait, then flew with his two fingers, manipulated the holographic projection, called up Kailian's 'Blood Moon', and enlarged his arms, and played a shot of Kailian killing spiders in the sewers, even her "Iron Baa!" Iron baa! Bitter shrudder! The swearing voices were recorded clearly.
"The NIMS-X14F, which is an experimental fighter equipped with an ultra-high-frequency radiation projector, has the effect that you can see that by emitting a directional electromagnetic pulse, it neutralizes short-range electromagnetic equipment and carries out loop destruction from the inside, ignoring external defenses.
But this equipment has not yet been completed, the custom miniature nuclear furnace commissioned by BRW has not yet been delivered, the weapon output needs to be tested again, and the energy management system OS has not been modulated, it can only be charged and discharged once, which is basically just a skeleton.
If you want it, sell it to you. β
"Oh...... Ahh Li Pan didn't react for a while.
Dr. Nimitz took a sip of the tea brought by the robot,
"Your company is in a company war, isn't it, if you need combat power, I'll sell it to you, that X14F has the lowest degree of completion, and it hasn't been modulated much, all the scripts are written by the people of the Red Sky Dog themselves, so let's charge a billion cost price.
However, the other three have been basically completed, and Yeshi, Dawn, and Takamagahara are also bidding for blueprints, if you want to participate, you can also come to bid, and the price of a single cruiser is probably between 2 billion and 5 billion.
If you are interested, please consult the sales department of our research institute directly, and they will introduce it. β
2 to 5 billion......
Li Pan hesitated for a moment.
This single machine is ten times the price of HAYABUSA, which means that the technology patents contained in those SMS are indeed worth the price.
In other words, the combat effectiveness of the complete SMS is probably already the benchmark of the latest version of the current Heavens market, worth tens of billions of military cruisers.
"This ...... Not well, after all, it's the secret weapon you bothered to develop......"
Dr. Nimitz chuckled,
"Hehe, secret weapon, hehehe, no, you misunderstood, it's just a toy. My grandson has recently been addicted to mecha movies and games from the previous generation, so I have some birthday presents for him.
The NIMS-X10A was a landline machine specially customized for him, and the others were for him to give to his friends to play with. It's okay, I'll just make another batch for them. β
Li Pan, "......"
Dr. Nimitz, "However, although it is a toy, it also uses some restricted patented technology, and if it falls into the hands of terrorists, it will indeed be a bit troublesome, and I, as the direct designer, have an obligation to recycle it so as not to cause losses, and I have to bear joint and several liability."
But there is no problem in selling it to the company, I will send you the follow-up parts and weapon components, of course, if you can, please share the combat data in the company's war, and I can also help with some OTA upgrade optimization. β
Li Pan, "...... That's a word, thank you. β
"Okay, then let's get down to business, there's one more thing,"
Dr. Nimitz retrieved Huang Dahe's file,
"This boy was also rescued by Your Excellency."
Li Pan looked at the part of Huang Dahe's resume in the file, and was expelled from the Polytechnic University and deprived of the red letter of citizenship to apply for permission, and he had a flash of inspiration.
"Yes, his name is Huang Dahe, he is a genius, is the doctor interested in recruiting him as an assistant?
I asked the lawyer, as long as the three citizens are jointly signed, they can apply for the security system to be re-examined for him, I can vouch for him, and if you agree, just find another ......"
But Dr. Nimitz shook his head,
"His credits are not bad, but the civil approval will not be passed, and it seems that it won't take too long, so forget it."
Li Pan frowned,
"It won't take long."
Dr. Nimitz pulled the file up,
"Although the physical characteristics and blood type have been edited, he does not match the genes of the registered parents, and he is an illegal gene coordinator, I think it may be that he was secretly replaced in the infant state, and naturally, he has not reported the operation record in the security system, probably some kind of secret human modification test of Takamagahara.
I don't know who helped him hide his background and borrowed Huang Dahe's identity to register in the system, but now that it has been found out, and this part of the key information is missing, his citizen review cannot be passed. β
"Illegal Genetic Coordination ......"
Li Pan was speechless for a while, genetic coordination, genetic coordination starting from a fertilized egg? The perfect new human?
In the early years, there was propaganda that a purely natural superman could be produced through gene editing. It's popular in other worlds. However, in the 0791 plane, the technology of artificial implantation of prostheses is more developed.
And this kind of sophisticated biological modification surgery, isn't that a benefit that can only be enjoyed by super-monopoly reincarnation in the other world, starting from 10 billion?
Huang Daihe? Billionaires living in slums? Is this to experience life? But it's impossible, can experiencing life be the way it is now? What kind of masochistic script is this?
And the replacement ...... The orange was originally ...... Alas......
Dr. Nimitz chatted and shared a bunch of SEC internal files.
"At the beginning, Takamagahara's technology was also immature, and the early coordinators all had fatal genetic defects, and more human experiments were conducted. Craft one-time consumables for war.
This teenager has a very high degree of intelligence development, and he may also be a victim of that kind of project. Don't look at his current intelligence and physical abilities beyond ordinary people, but according to the average life expectancy of Takamagahara's military reformers captured after the war, between the ages of twenty and twenty-five, he has a high risk of premature aging, immune failure, and even gene disintegration, if it is fast, he will die in three to six months as soon as he becomes ill.
If he had his original genetic modification record, he might be able to develop some targeted genetic drugs to alleviate the onset of the disease, otherwise, this kind of genetic collapse would be incurable.
Oh, but in this case, you were injured last time, so maybe you have a solution. β
Add Wong Tai Wo to the filing cabinet?
But is that really 'saving' him......
Seeing Li Pan's hesitation for a while, Dr. Nimitz didn't ask much, moved his fingers, and allocated a confidential SEC file to him,
"I'm not a biology major, if you want to help this teenager, I suggest you still have to find the team that was in charge of the specific project at the beginning, this is the list of Takamagahara's war criminals, many people have been killed, imprisoned, committed suicide, hired externally, in short, almost all of them are missing. It depends on your luck, but if you find someone, you might be able to help a little. β
Li Pan looked at the file, there are hundreds of people, hey, he swept it away from this pile of people, and he really recognized two of them.
Hiroharu Tamura, Ryohei Osumi, are they all from this team......
However, these two were young people at the time, and they were at the bottom of the list, and they were probably just low-level researchers. And there are three core leaders of the project, the project director is a lieutenant general named Mori Chengli, this person can be found on the Internet, he is the Oda family head of the Ma Dai mother clothes people, confidants and other roles, as the main staff and person in charge of the Oda family, when the defeat and surrender of the self-apologetic.
The remaining two adjutants, Dr. Tomoko Akagi, a former SEC commissioner, were expelled and committed suicide. Dr. Hibiki Oga, former SEC commissioner, fired, car accident.
Yo, Akagi, does this last name seem familiar...... Well, too, gate valve politics is like this, going around and around, to put it bluntly, do you still live in those families in Takamagahara......
"However, this confidential information doesn't seem to have reached the declassification period yet, right? Doesn't it matter if it's given to me? β
Li Pan looked at Dr. Nimitz.
"Doctor, what do you want?"
The latter is also a straight man with enough iron, and he confesses generously,
"The OS written by that teenager is really good, it can be worth a lot of money, and I have registered it to apply for a patent for the technology under my name."
Li Pan nodded,
"So these are compensation for him?"
"It's not for him, it's for you, this person."
Dr. Nimitz flicked his fingers and overlapped the photos of one of the project leaders, Hibiki Ogawa and Huang Daiwa, and the assistant software directly outlined the proportions of the skull.
Li Pan couldn't help frowning, except for the slight difference in skin color, pupil color, and hair color, the skeleton facial features were almost identical. Is the original gene cloned......
Dr. Nimitz explained,
"Hibiki Oga, he's an expert in genetic coordination, but he's only the second-in-command on this project, and Tomoko Akagi, she's in artificial intelligence, but she's in charge.
So the teenager, I reckon, is not the 'final product' of this project, just 'parts', 'consumables', screws that can be replaced at any time. β
"Parts? Screw? β
Dr. Nimitz asked the robot to add a glass of water to Li Pan and continued,
"At the time, I didn't know what kind of research Takamagaha was engaged in, but they did succeed in developing some interesting edge technologies, and they exploded with incredible technology, and once caught up with the level of the committee, which gave birth to rebellious ambitions. And we finally found out that the source of these technologies came from some teenagers and girls.
'Whisperers', as they call them, are said to be gifted beings, who can hear the call of the other world, and naturally have access to some unprecedented technology, but that is not so much on the scientific side as it is closer to your existence.
The OS code written by the boy is that kind of thing...... Forget it, I'll still say it bluntly, it's autonomous consciousness AI, artificial intelligence and other prohibited technologies.
You can see the performance of these SMS, without the blessing of that OS, these things are just 'toys'. But now, they're all 'alive', just like 'monsters'......
This kind of technology, do you think that a young man like him can 'come up' with a casual flash of inspiration? Hehe, don't underestimate the blood and sweat of us researchers, who work hard day and night......
Those things of him were born and were 'whispered' in the ears and directly 'engraved' in his mind. Don't even think about it.,It's just a biological hard disk.,Just output it directly.γ
Of course, once this ability is activated, the 'whispers in the ear' will become clearer and louder, and finally fall into an irreversible collapse.
Like I said, awakening at the age of twenty to twenty-five, once you get sick, you can't last six months, consumables. β
Dr. Nimitz took a sip of tea and continued,
"Of course, Takamagahara will not honestly hand over this technology, when the Oda family saw that the defeat was imminent, the core researchers of that project were directly cleaned up internally as soon as possible, and all the 'whisperer' experimental subjects were destroyed. We can't save it even if we send special forces.
But we've always known that there must be fish that slip through the net.
As long as they give Takamagahara's remnants a breath of air and don't let them be cornered and completely lose hope of turning the tables, then they will definitely not be willing to do things to the end, and there will definitely be 'whisperers' who will remain and hide in some corner of this world."
He, 'Huang Tai He', is one of them.
Twenty years have passed, and if it was the last batch of embryos cultivated at that time, it would have almost grown to the age of awakening, otherwise what do you think we are doing with the University of Tokyo, accepting so many students, and developing so many technology parks?
Do you think that there is really such a big gap between the human beings in this world and the people in other worlds in terms of intelligence?
It's just panning for gold in the sand. β
"That's ...... like this"
Li Pan was also confused. Unexpectedly, the children who live next door and other people's families are not only real scholars, but also supermen in the real sense......
Dr. Nimitz looked at him,
"These things are tacit understanding within the committee, because the manager you have been in the company for a relatively short time, and you may not be very clear, but from the situation in the past two months, it may be that for a long time, your company's 0791 business will still be in charge of you, so in order to avoid the last conflict and misunderstanding, today I will inform you of these inside information on behalf of the SEC committee.
For the 0791 local 'Whisperers', the committee has long agreed that the SEC will track and register the whereabouts of each 'Whisperer', and if there is a 'Whisperer Technology' to bid on the committee.
Therefore, I hope that you will strictly abide by the bottom line of the committee in the future contact with that side, and if you have any gains, do not steal it privately, and contact us in time. Of course, I know that your company's asking price has always been relatively high, but if there is a price, it is easy to discuss. β
Whisperers, Edge Tech, Illegal Genetic Modification, Artificial Intelligence, OS......
, whenever Lao Tzu thinks that he is invincible in the world, he will always encounter a bunch of new settings from system updates and iterations......
After talking to Dr. Nimitz, Li Pan left the building, and no one came to surround him. After all, people are really here to negotiate peacefully, how can they flip the table and tear their heads like a neurotic without saying a word......
In short, Li Pan rushed back to the factory, and saw his shuttle parked in the yard, and Orange looked lonely and leaned on the balcony to smoke.
"Huh? What's going on? What about Yamato? β
Li Pan jumped to his side, his consciousness swept away, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Huang Dahe is no longer in the factory, but he should not have been kidnapped by the SEC or the Security Bureau.
Kailian is still in the warehouse, after all, 'Red Moon' was detained by the Panlong Company, she naturally guarded her mecha and refused to leave. Looks like this 'toy' very much.
That's nonsense, two billion toys...... Of course, to be honest, it won't go anywhere.
This time, their small team was almost wiped out, losing three of the four mechs, and the careful ambush arranged by Night, Dawn, and the SEC's well-known action records were certainly not the work of a Cerberus.
In other words, there may be something wrong inside the Red Tengu, and nine times out of ten there are traitors who have leaked their hiding place. In addition, the SEC has been staring at these prohibited technologies from beginning to end, what kind of red tengu is simply a fish belly and dog breast on people's chopping boards.
You think you escaped? You just haven't found a bigger cage yet......
The orange let out a long breath and came back to his senses,
He refused to quit or go back to school, so he went to find Akainu's contact himself...... Full of thoughts, only thinking about revenge......"
"Revenge, ......"
Li Pan looked at her weak appearance, and knew that the reunion of the mother and son was probably not much moved by the reunion, and it was estimated that there was a quarrel. And thinking of the 'Whisperer' program that I just heard is also scratching my head. There are some things that can't be said to help, so in the end I only hold back one sentence.
"At least he's alive, isn't he?"
Orange smiled dismally,
"Alive...... If you mix with those people, if you have any way to live, you will die sooner or later......"
Li Pan has nothing to say, he can resist the pressure of the Dawn Company to protect Huang Dahe, he can also help pay off his debts, or tie up the enemy to relieve his anger. You can even try to help find out the people related to the 'Whisperer' project and help Huang Dahe treat genetic defects. Or just recruit him.
However, Huang Dahe may not need him to help and save him at all.
People who volunteer to join the Red Tengu are not the same as those who are forced to become company dogs.
There are indeed a few people in this world who are not realists who eat for a while in their bones, but naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve idealists.
The more these people's three views are beaten by reality, the more firm they become, just like steel that has been tempered thousands of times.
Huang Dahe is this kind of person, it is estimated that after the encounters and drastic changes in just a few months, he will never be able to turn back into the three-good student who swallowed his anger.
Now he was a blood-stained, bruised rabid dog.
This kind of person, if he makes up his mind, nine cows can't pull it back.
But what can be the result of rebellion, who has been in the hands of the committee since birth?
Where did he think he could go?
Now near the Panlong factory, there are eyes and spies of the Security Bureau everywhere, and people don't come out to arrest people, but they are completely looking at Li Pan's thin face.
Because the manager of the monster company vouched for this 'whisperer', the OS was handed over to the SEC, and the test of the mecha and the follow-up 'whisperer technology' had to be reported on time.
So now Huang Dahe's behavior is just a rebellious period for teenagers.
And at most, they can only resist for another six months, or even less......
Now Li Pan has also figured it out.
When the time comes, if Huang Dahe is unwilling to join the company, wants to resist, and wants to die, let him die.
Let him indulge in the dream of being able to resist his fate and drown.
