Leveling Up With My Pet-Chapter 367 Global Scientific Center
"Boss!" Qiu Yang's respectful voice echoed through the lavish office, breaking the tranquil air surrounding the successful entrepreneur Liu Yong. Despite being at the helm of an expansive business empire with authority to command the actions of thousands, Qiu Yang remained astonishingly modest, especially in the presence of Liu Yong.
"Come, sit down," Liu Yong gestured warmly, beckoning Qiu Yang to sit on the sumptuous sofa. Eagerly, Qiu Yang complied his expression a picture of rapt attention.
"We are planning to establish a global scientific research center," Liu Yong began, his tone commanding anticipation. "Huang Guang will be the general manager. We'll bring in external talent, especially in the fields of scientific research and technology."
The revelation caught Qiu Yang slightly off guard. He hadn't expected that the boss would venture into the realm of technology by creating a global scientific research center—an ambitious move indeed.
Curious and keen to grasp the full scope of the endeavor, Qiu Yang inquired, "Boss, could you tell me more about the scale of the Global Scientific Research Center, its registered capital, and the focus of its scientific and technological research?"
Liu Yong replied, "The initial registered capital will be 1 billion. Our primary focus in the first stage will be energy, more specifically, research on rechargeable batteries. We won't hesitate to invest in the best talent, and we'll recruit a significant number of senior researchers in this field."
As Liu Yong elaborated on his vision, Qiu Yang listened attentively. The prospect of researching rechargeable batteries, a burgeoning sector with immense growth potential, impressed him. The surge in demand for high-performance rechargeable batteries, driven by the rapid rise of new energy vehicles, had already attracted substantial investments from various enterprises and institutions. Knowing the deep pockets of the Global Shipping Group, Qiu Yang recognized that allocating billions or even tens of billions for research in this domain would be well within their capacity.
After Liu Yong concluded his speech, Qiu Yang nodded affirmatively. "Okay, boss, I'll get to work right away on your instructions."
The plan unfolded in a series of steps: registering and establishing the Global Scientific Research Center, acquiring a dedicated building for research purposes, recruiting a large pool of talented individuals, and finally, embarking on scientific research pertaining to rechargeable batteries.
Leaving Liu Yong's office, Qiu Yang immediately began making the necessary arrangements to set the plan in motion.
In no time, Huang Guang, the vice president of the Global Shipping Group, entered Liu Yong's office. Although he still held a high-ranking position, it was evident that his growth within the company under Liu Yong's support had been exponential. Grateful for the opportunities provided to him, Huang Guang remained devoted, diligent, and fiercely loyal to Liu Yong.
Anticipating the sensitivity and confidentiality of the research to be undertaken at the Global Scientific Research Center, Liu Yong knew he needed someone trustworthy to lead the charge. Naturally, Huang Guang's name surfaced as the ideal candidate.
"Brother Yong, you wanted to see me?" Huang Guang inquired.
Liu Yong nodded, providing an overview of the center's establishment and expressing his desire for Huang Guang to take on the crucial role of general manager.
Without hesitation, Huang Guang accepted the responsibility and pledged, "Brother Yong, rest assured, I will manage the Global Scientific Research Center with utmost dedication."
With the general manager position filled, Liu Yong's vision continued to materialize step by step.
In a separate office, Liang Wencheng was in the midst of hosting a friend—a chief designer from a military industrial unit, responsible for a specific type of armed helicopter. Both veterans in the military industry, their camaraderie was evident as they engaged in animated conversation.
Curiosity piqued, the friend, Ming Xiuwei, inquired about the progress of Liang Wencheng's "turbofan X," a project involving a powerful engine.
Liang Wencheng's face exuded confidence as he replied, "My old friend, you seem a bit behind on the news. We have already resolved that issue."
Ming Xiuwei was taken aback. The challenge faced by his own project had consumed much of his attention, causing him to overlook Liang Wencheng's developments.
"Resolved? How did you manage that?" Ming Xiuwei inquired, eager to understand the solution.
Liang Wencheng's smile widened as he revealed, "Rather than buying the required single crystal superalloy from abroad, we've employed an even more superior metal. About 30% of the future turbofan X will be made from this extraordinary material."
Astounded, Ming Xiuwei struggled to grasp the significance of such an innovation. His eyes spoke volumes, silently questioning Liang Wencheng's words, as if saying, "Are you pulling my leg?"
"Haha Haha "
Liang Wencheng's laughter echoed in the spacious office as he reached into the depths of the desk drawer, retrieving a sleek, gray-black metal performance report. He handled it with a sense of reverence, fully aware of the groundbreaking significance it held. 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶
"We've harnessed the potential of this remarkable metal material," he declared with a gleam in his eye, "It surpasses those so-called advanced metal materials by leaps and bounds."
Ming Xiuwei, the chief designer of Wuzhi D, took the performance report in hand, flipping through its pages with growing anticipation. His eyes widened in amazement as he examined the accompanying gray-black metal sample.
His excitement was palpable, and a faint flush colored his cheeks. Despite his age of fifty, he had experienced numerous remarkable moments throughout his career, and his mental fortitude was known to be unyielding. Yet, even he couldn't help but be swept up in the excitement of this moment.
He understood that the persistent issues plaguing Wuzhi D had been unequivocally resolved. Through the extensive application of this groundbreaking metal, the weight of the aircraft could be significantly reduced. This, in turn, would allow for the installation of a new radar system and an increase in ammunition load.
The gray-black metal exhibited a surprising characteristic—it was incredibly lightweight, surpassing even the lightness of aluminum alloy. By incorporating this material, Wuzhi D could shed an astonishing two to three tons of weight without encountering any drawbacks.
With this newfound weight advantage, a plethora of possibilities opened up. Ming Xiuwei was confident that Wuzhi D's overall performance would soar to unprecedented heights.
Meanwhile, the Global Scientific Research Center was well on its way to being officially established, and Liu Yong and Chen Hu found themselves with some free time, making their way to an industrial park in Huahai City.
Liu Yong envisioned the Global Scientific Research Center as an expansive hub of knowledge, destined to become the most renowned scientific research institution in the world. Naturally, such a grand vision necessitated a vast tract of land.
In the pursuit of this ambitious goal, Liu Yong sought to purchase an extensive piece of real estate to accommodate thousands, if not tens of thousands, of scientific researchers and their endeavors.
However, as they scoured the area, the perfect location proved elusive. Sometimes, the scarcity of suitable land proved to be a hindrance. In the sprawling metropolis of Huahai City, finding such a large and ideal space was proving daunting.
