Super God-Level Top Student-Chapter 481 - 218 Lightning Action_2

Even with the unmanned drone swarms in the air, multimodal information perception still has a bunch of unsolved difficulties. Not only Xilin University of Technology but also many labs across the country are conducting related research. So far, no one has come up with a more advanced, comprehensive technological solution.

The debate at this point is utterly meaningless.

Fortunately, the reaction of the academicians and professors was within Zuo Chengzheng’s expectations.

So he continued, "What if I say that this project will be jointly funded by the GF Department and the Ministry of Science and Technology, and according to the demands of the chief engineer, the entire project will be entrusted to us at Xilin University of Technology. They have also agreed to let us establish a new national-level deep-sea unmanned clustering systems and seawater-corrosion-resistant material engineering research center, how about that?"

This statement instantly exploded the meeting room, which had just become slightly dull due to Luo Benyuan’s remarks.

"What? The whole project is given to our school? Every lab gets a share?"

"Who is this chief engineer? This is incredibly flattering."

"There isn’t a second one in the whole country? I think we can handle this crab."

"Zuo, you aren’t joking with us, are you? To handle such a huge project all by ourselves? How much investment is that?"

"Exactly, this sounds like a joke? No one even applied for it, and a pie falls from the sky? Where do you find such good luck?"

...

"Alright, everyone calm down. Not only that, if the project is successful within the planned time, all the participating labs will have additional rewards. The original key national labs will receive no less than two related national key research projects; the non-key national labs will directly obtain qualifications for the key national lab selection."

In addition, all the patent inventions involved in the project not only get extra rewards but also the whole team enters the national-level scientific research award channels. Individuals who have made significant or outstanding contributions in the project will be jointly recommended by the Science Academy’s Presidium to enter the National Academy of Engineering as academicians.

If a contributor who is already an academician makes a significant contribution, they will be extraordinarily granted the highest national scientific and technological award of the year.

Zuo Chengzheng kept throwing out these tantalizing promises, without considering that many people in the meeting were of advanced age, and might not be able to digest them.

However, after he threw out these baits, the atmosphere in the conference room actually cooled down.

Everyone began to exchange glances.

What’s the saying, "When something is abnormal, there must be a demon"? This was it!

Xilin University of Technology had taken on many large national projects before, but none of them were like this.

Many had picked up the materials they had just put aside to read again because they had already discerned the subtext in Zuo Chengzheng’s words—The task must be completed within the planned time...

In other words, the chief engineer, whose identity we still don’t know, set conditions while planning to bring such benefits to Xilin University of Technology.

If failing to complete the project on time results in such significant rewards, then almost certainly, there cannot be no punishment for failure. If it were such a good deal, they wouldn’t feel right about it themselves.

"No need to look any further, a three-year plan! The chief designer said that he believes Xilin University of Technology’s overall scientific research capabilities can fully launch the project within three years and pass the dual-ministry commission’s review. But the higher-ups haven’t entirely taken his advice, hence this meeting, to ask everyone’s opinion.

If you are confident that you can complete this project within three years, I guarantee everything I just mentioned will come true. You can record my words; if any cannot be realized, you can come and slap me in the face later. But if it’s not done, heh..."

Zuo Chengzheng laughed and then said meaningfully, "In short, this project requires a military order."

This statement somehow reassured everyone in the meeting.

We’re past the age of daydreaming; everyone knew perfectly well that pie would not just fall from the sky. Gain comes with loss, that’s the normal state of life. They wouldn’t be fooled by Zuo Chengzheng’s few words, could they?

But at the same time, their appetites were whetted to the highest point by Zuo.

"Zuo, stop beating around the bush, just tell us, who is the chief engineer? What’s the connection with our Xilin University of Technology?"

Lu Mingyue, who had been silent until then, spoke up.

As one of the newly promoted academicians at Xilin University of Technology, although Lu Mingyue was not old, just over fifty and in his prime with strong influence, his words carried weight.

"Since Lu has spoken, I won’t keep it a secret from everyone any longer. The plan you see was provided by Professor Qiao Ze from the School of Mathematics. I don’t know if you have confidence, but Professor Qiao is very confident. In any case, the evaluation from above is that Professor Qiao is full of confidence."

At this point, Zuo Chengzheng paused, giving everyone in the conference room time to digest this information before he continued, "However, because Professor Qiao is too confident, the higher-ups have already decided to launch this project. Whether it’s in line with his request to keep the entire project internal to Xilin University of Technology is up to everyone here."

There was a moment of silence in the conference room, then it gradually became lively again.

"I knew it, I guessed it right away. Who else could be so bold, I mean, we can’t just watch the School of Mathematics have all the fun. That guy Xu Dajiang, I’ve had my eye on him for a while now, it’s about time we got to have a sip of the soup, too."

"Wait, Professor Zheng, let’s not get too excited just yet. We don’t know if this soup is poisoned, do we? Do you really believe your lab is confident about solving the endurance problem for deep-sea underwater vehicles?"
