Hex Technology Tycoon of American Comics

The first exo-t1 exoskeleton armor was completed as scheduled, and the members of the project team showed expressions of surprise.

The total weight of this exoskeleton is 12.5 kilograms, and no part is redundant. It can be called a model of modern industry.

"Okay, gentlemen, let's start the test." Karl smiled and clapped his hands.

After hearing Carl's words, everyone became busy - during this period, Carl went to the laboratory every day to coordinate the progress, and from time to time he showed amazing knowledge of ergonomics.

At first, they only thought that Karl was a pure connection person, but now it seems that he really has two tricks.

And everyone is looking forward to seeing the performance of this equipment.

Soldiers wearing equipment were already standing in the test room. In the test venue, they needed to complete a series of tests including long-term running, short-distance sprinting, weight-bearing march, weightlifting, shooting, fighting, etc.

Among them, long-term running, sprinting, and weight-bearing march are all old events, and almost all exoskeleton tests will conduct these tests.

But the results are quite gratifying.

"18 minutes for five kilometers without weight bearing, 19 minutes for five kilometers of armed cross-country, and 100 seconds for 14 meters... quite excellent!"

Under normal circumstances, the data for five kilometers without weight-bearing is 21 minutes, and the weight-bearing time is 23 minutes. After wearing the exoskeleton, the non-weight-bearing time is significantly improved!

Not only that, the difference between the results of armed cross-country and the former is very small, which shows that the exoskeleton is quite suitable for long-distance use!

The 100-meter time is usually an excellent 13 seconds, but after wearing the exoskeleton, it dropped a bit, indicating that there is still a lot of room for improvement in sprinting, but it is still within the passing line.

This shows that the exoskeleton is designed to be close-fitting and light enough!

The first test boosted everyone's confidence, and then came a series of combat tests, with equally gratifying results.

Although the results fluctuated slightly because the testers were not familiar with the exoskeleton yet, compared to its bonus in sports, this result is completely considered excellent!

After completing the test, people’s eyes changed a lot when they looked at Karl:

Because the transmission and sensors of the exoskeleton were designed and improved by Karl himself!Such excellent results are inseparable from his training!

From a project manager who didn’t understand technology in the eyes of everyone, he became a technology expert...

Is it another Tony Stark?Damn Obadiah, what a piece of shit!

"Not bad, quite good." Karl also nodded. This data is completely enough to cope with the expo in the near future.

"Thank you for your cooperation. It seems that we can come up with some new tricks at the expo - when we put together a group that does not wear exoskeletons, I believe the board of directors will be very impressed."

"But they are about to make a fool of themselves!" Researcher You said with a smile.

Karl smiled back: "Controlled trials are always needed, I can only blame them for their bad luck.

Okay, there are only two tasks in the next time: first, optimize the appearance design and some details; second, urge the experimenters to become familiar with the exoskeleton. I believe that after good training, the results can be improved.

I will not participate in the remaining tasks. Everyone, work hard, and you will receive the bonus after the completion. "

"Long live the boss!"

"Wuhu!"

Karl left the testing site amidst the cheers of the researchers and went directly to the viewing platform, where Obadiah was here, with surprise written on his face.

He originally thought that Carl was just a calculating guy who was at most suitable for middle management and needed more discipline.

But now...the exoskeleton project is progressing extremely smoothly!In addition to his leadership skills, he also demonstrated technical skills!

incredible.

clap clap.

Obadiah clapped his hands and said, "I didn't expect you to actually achieve something - in such a short period of time!"

Karl shrugged: "I said, you won't regret trusting me, sir - of course, I also want to thank you for the resources you gave me.

This is the recent financial flow of the project team, please take a look. "

While talking, Karl handed over a document.

Obadiah took a cursory look and sighed to himself that Karl was really a talent.

The first batch of research funding is US$400 million, which has already been received, and the total investment by the military is currently US$800 million in one year.

Although the number is a small number in the eyes of Stark Industries, mosquito legs are still meat even if they are small, and Stark Industries has not invested a penny.

Moreover, this project involves a lot, and as long as it continues to succeed, more and more investment will be made.

Now, less than two months later, Carr has spent less than $200 million to get an almost finished version...

The remaining money is a net profit.

At first, Obadiah only wanted to make a little profit, and even Karl could do some marginal operations on time, but now...

The project team's finances are quite green.

"...How sure are you about this project?" Obadiah asked after reading it.

“I think the mechanical structure can be simplified a little bit, which can make the exoskeleton cheaper and more reliable.

As for getting to Captain America level... I don't think it's necessary.

As long as the energy problem is solved, this piece of equipment has great potential. "

Obadiah understands this - this is the route to be taken with massive deployment.

Having been in business for many years, he immediately looked at the cost list of exo-t1 and was even more surprised--

This is quite profitable!

The only uncertainty lies in... the energy source. The existing energy source is only enough for the wearer to use it for less than 50 minutes at the highest power. This is a fatal flaw.

Do you want to spend money?

Karl had already spoken to him.

Obadiah was heartbroken and immediately made the decision - invest!

"In this way, you continue to pay attention to this project and develop it in this direction. If the military has other requirements later, we will talk about it.

But I want you to take this project in your hands, you know what I mean? "

Karl nodded - in theory, the exo-t1 patent belongs to the military, because it is a military investment, and at most it will be produced by Stark Industries and United Aerospace according to the agreement.

But if some... detailed operations are carried out, it is not impossible to trick the military.

As long as there are enough connections and interests, nothing can be done.

"Very well, so be it."

After talking about work, Obadiah smiled and patted Karl on the shoulder, like a kind elder: "How is school life? Where do you live now?"

"Oh, I haven't had time to find a house yet. I'm living in the laboratory now."

Carl shrugged. Counting the money he stole from Mr. Negatives and his salary for the past two months, Carl was now a little rich, with a total of nearly 30 US dollars in his account.

However, we have to take our time in buying a house. Now we are most considering renting.

"Laboratory? That's not possible..." Obadiah looked at his mobile phone, "Let's have a meal together, and then I'll give you a call. It's an intermediary with a good reputation in the industry. You go and talk to him. talk."

Karl readily agreed: "Okay, I'm still worried about this. It would be bad if I was cheated."

"The agent's mouth is a liar - when I was with Howard..."

In this way, the two got into the car side by side and went straight to the luxurious restaurant.

……

The meal lasted until the evening. I have to say that a steak worth several hundred dollars is indeed much better than fast food.

In addition to receiving a dinner from the upper class, Carl also received an unexpected bonus from Obadiah, totaling 20 US dollars.

I have to say that this bald man was really kind, which even touched Karl.

"50 U.S. dollars, converted into Chinese currency, should be more than 400 million, and this is still 07." Karl sighed in his heart, and he was considered to be rich.

This kind of number would have been unthinkable for me in my previous life.

Thanks for being born again.

Buying an apartment in New York City for $50 is a dream, but thanks to the outbreak of the subprime mortgage crisis, it is still possible to buy a single-family house in a slightly remote street.

Carl plans to buy a house like this, transform it into his own laboratory, and then rent a small apartment for the convenience of commuting to get off work.

perfect.

Thinking of this, Karl called the intermediary number recommended by Obadiah.
