Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 480 480 Intertwined Unlearnable Techniques

In the Flame Castle, a maid respectfully placed the report in her hand on Sophia's desk, lowered her head and reported: "Sir Sophia! The envoy from the Chu State has issued a contract to purchase 20,000 more Cyric Type 1 rifles from us. It was delivered, and we have achieved good sales results in many other places in Dahua.”

Waving her hand a little irritably, Sophia with fiery red hair casually ordered: "Put it there, I understand."

After giving the instructions, she looked back at the engineers who were reporting to her. The engineers looked frustrated because they hadn't done their job.

 They have been trying their best to expand and develop various technologies from Datang Group for more than a year.

The Cyric Consortium is not sitting still. After they obtain the corresponding Datang Group's technology, they will start their own research.

Some of these studies have achieved certain results, while others are still at the same place, without even being able to understand the principles.

One of the leaders in charge of these engineers put his hands in his hands, looked at Sophia apologetically, and continued: "The more we compare, the greater the technological gap between us and Datang Group becomes. This result is really discouraging. "

As he spoke, he shook his head and gave an answer that made Sophia even more irritated: "We are completely behind in all aspects of materials science, processing technology, product design, etc., and we don't even have the ability to catch up. "

This is not the first time Sophia has heard such an answer. She will almost always hear similar answers after receiving a certain technology donated to her by Datang Group.

 No one wants to hear their subordinates always reporting such depressing results. Cyric's scientific researchers do not even have a solid theoretical foundation.

To Sophia’s despair, the Cyric team led by some young technicians and engineers trained by Datang Group was more creative. Many technical research projects are now being done by these teams.

But Sofia definitely didn't dare to let these technicians from Datang Group really come into contact with Cyric's core. The feeling of stripping off and dancing in front of each other made her very uncomfortable.

"How big is the gap...?" She looked to the other side, the project leader of the other group, and asked slowly.

 The answer from another person in charge was more pessimistic. He thought for a while and replied: "How big is the gap between the two sides? It's too big to imagine! I am even now learning the new vocabulary they created!"

Sofia was touched by this statement, because she was also trying to accept many brand-new words that had never appeared before.

 These new words represent the most advanced products and the most avant-garde and latest technologies! For example, the internal combustion engine is a new concept, and Sofia only recently came into contact with this word in the message that the maid played from Bunas.

Datang Group is using this term to name an entire class of power systems. At the same time, Datang Group is also popularizing better fertilizers and improving food productivity.

  The effect of the newly prepared compound fertilizer is better than single phosphate fertilizer or nitrogen fertilizer on most land. This is the fundamental reason why the Tang Kingdom dared to accommodate the population on such a large scale.

In terms of farming technology, the Datang Kingdom is obviously leading the world. The Datang Group’s farming technology and fertilizer production technology support the Datang Kingdom’s exploding population.

But Sophia’s previous concept of fertilizer was almost animal and human excrement, which was all dirty and something she didn’t want to mention.

Just listen to the person in charge continue to speak, and go on about the new vocabulary he mentioned: "Yes, you heard it right, it is a new vocabulary! Not a new technology! They just need to come up with a new one Technology, these words to describe this technology have not even been heard by our technical staff.”

He spread his hands as he spoke and gave an example with regret: "We have just learned and figured out their new technology to produce a steel formula that can process gun barrels, and they have a newer product to replace it."

Then he continued to compare the huge gap between the two sides: "Our skilled workers are still thinking about how to eliminate impurities in smelted steel products as much as possible. Datang Group's steelmaking technology department has already started making plans. A variety of raw materials are added to the steel to improve certain aspects of its performance.”

The shock-absorbing spring of Cyric's car is just a spring, but the spring performance of Datang Group's car is more suitable for the positioning of a certain kind of car.

 Their springs can be made corrosion-resistant and harder, providing better support for the vehicle and giving the car superior off-road performance.

Hylic's car springs can only rely on workers' tuning to achieve shock-absorbing strength, and in terms of corrosion resistance and other properties, they can only leave it to fate. Specific to the service life, Cyric generally relies on increasing the thickness of the spring steel plate to barely meet the standard.

This makes Cyric's Gobl car still have a high weight, average performance, and somewhat poor fuel consumption... Although it doesn't seem to be much different on a daily basis, when accumulated, there are obvious technical differences.

The engineer on the other side started to talk eloquently, as if he had opened a chat box: "The most terrifying thing is that we have also invested in materials, but we are still doing research and experiments, and the other party has already come up with second-generation or even third-generation mature products, which are in the market Sold on.”

He had so many things that he wanted to complain about, and he took advantage of this meeting to express them at all costs: "Without raw materials with corresponding performance, we cannot develop and manufacture, and we can't even imagine a new type of equipment." It can be manufactured. Just like in the past few decades, we didn't believe that there was such a thing as a large steel rolling mill."

Such complaints were rare in the past, because Cyric's senior leaders did not tolerate the people below shirking their responsibilities.

From the perspective of these senior executives, they have paid sky-high salaries to these engineers and technicians, so they should solve the problems that should be solved.

 The usual way to deal with this kind of thing before was to basically kill a few typical people, and then let the rest of the people work hard to develop the technology.

 But as Sophia gradually came to power within Cyric, such things rarely happened. On the one hand, talents are indeed rare, and killing them casually is still very distressing. Another reason is that Cyric's technology is no longer leading. Compared with the technological advantages of Datang Group, it is obviously unrealistic to force one's own R&D team to surpass Datang Group. Everyone knows that it will kill all the technology in hand. Personnel may not be useful either. Therefore, Sophia began to stop this murderous practice, and in turn used gentler methods to win people's hearts, which indeed had some effects.

 At least under her leadership, Cyric's R&D team has grown significantly in size and has produced many results. Its efficiency has increased many times compared to before.

“At that time, everyone had seen a steel rolling mill, but who would dare to imagine that there is such a large and efficient rolling mill today?” The engineer spoke so quickly that he could no longer restrain himself.

As he spoke, he looked at the silent colleagues around him and continued, "The constraints on raw materials prevent us from designing more advanced machinery. The lack of more advanced machinery in turn makes it difficult for us to design more advanced machinery." The development of raw materials is passive, which makes us passive everywhere.”

Sophia didn't mean to blame him, because she knew that the engineer was telling the truth. She at least knew something in some aspects, and of course she knew how terrifying the Datang Group's technologies were.

Inventing electricity, or inventing a generator, is actually nothing, but it is scary to take out generators and wires almost at the same time, and use them to improve the drive of mechanical equipment.

 The more people who know technology, the more they can see how outrageous this popularization method of coming up with a complete set of mature solutions all at once is.

“But this is only the part of us that is lagging behind and is the easiest to catch up with... What really leaves us at a loss is Datang Group’s ideas for developing new technologies!” The engineer said this with a somewhat desperate tone.

He is the opponent and enemy of Datang Group... He once thought so, but as his research deepened, he found that he was not the opponent or enemy of Datang Group at all. He was just a schoolboy who followed Datang Group. followers.

Moreover, what made him despair was that he found that he was not chasing, but watching the back of Datang Group gradually receding from behind.

This feeling of powerlessness made him collapse, so he almost lost the courage to continue following: "They always have new ideas that can change existing technology and immediately update a new technology! We are still learning the old technical parameters. By that time, they had already written out the technical parameters of the next generation product.”

"Okay! I know it's difficult for you! But... hope always exists!" Sofia interrupted the man's speech to prevent him from sinking into more despair.

"Sir, five months ago, we just received Datang Group's freewheel production technology and began to fully imitate this superior-performance transport ship..." The engineer on the other side continued.

 He ​​sighed, "But they have launched a brand new transport ship to replace the free ship! So, we can only keep following behind them, following step by step... In the end, we can't even keep up with the pace of progress."

"Okay! Stop talking! What kind of job should I do instead! Keep doing it! I will get more new technologies as soon as possible...understand these technologies! Find ways to innovate some products that Datang Group does not have! This is yours Work! It's also your responsibility!" Sofia interrupted these people's reports, stood up, and left the room in a hurry as if to escape reality.

  Modern industry is a complete system, and any weakness in any aspect may affect the overall industrial strength.

 Don’t underestimate the huge impact that production capacity has on the entire system. You can’t wake up your industrial system at any time as long as you have technology.

 Be aware that a civilian factory that produces chemical fertilizers may also be an important facility that produces poisonous gas or chemical raw materials.

 Factories that produce stockings can produce the outer layer of nylon for artillery propellants during war. Even the simplest clothing factories can also undertake the production of military uniforms during wartime.

 Without the production capacity of these factories, it would be very difficult to arm hundreds of thousands of troops.

 The fact is that few countries can suddenly increase the production of masks, let alone increase the production of fighter jets...

Who can believe that a country that can no longer produce shoes, hats and masks in normal times can prepare military uniforms for hundreds of thousands of people in a few days when a war comes? Are conscripted and mobilized soldiers required to wear jeans to fight in the war?

Similarly, without the corresponding scale of chemical factories, how can the supply of ammunition and propellant be guaranteed after the outbreak of war?

 A tractor factory may no longer be able to transform and start producing modern tanks during the war, but this tractor factory can definitely provide tens of thousands of front-line troubleshooting logistics personnel for the army.

 Don't underestimate this kind of ability. If such a person is cultivated from scratch, it will last long enough to change the outcome of a war.

 With the development of modern technology, there will be more and more phenomena that because A cannot be produced, B cannot be produced, so that even CDEF cannot produce it. And the country that is good at producing F may not actually have the production capacity of B or even A...

 Rocket and aerospace technology represents missile technology, optical technology is related to imaging technology, and even culture and education are closely related to military affairs.

Sometimes an innovation in welding technology relies on technological breakthroughs in the field of chemical gas preparation. It's as interesting as the ancient blacksmith and alchemist who should often collaborate and contact each other.

Of course, it is not impossible for an illiterate man in jeans to go to the battlefield with a machete, but to say that a Japanese country has quasi-nuclear deterrence is a joke.

 In a modern war that is measured in seconds and minutes, bragging that a country can produce nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles within three to five days is really retarded to the extreme.

The five permanent countries with thousands of nuclear warheads still need to hide their nuclear bombs in XZ to improve their survivability. They expect a small country to erect a missile bomber in an open space against the sky full of satellites and countless missile bombers after the war begins. A ballistic missile more than ten meters long?

And then imagine that the purification equipment larger than a building in a university in this country works intact for a few days to purify the concentrated raw materials, transport them and assemble them onto this missile?

By the time this manufacturing, assembly and launch process is completed, the radiation value in the Japanese capital will be reduced to a level that allows entry without protection... No lie, really.
