Chapter 173 Countries carried out assessments overnight
In response to the wealthy man's request for gold-plated and inlaid gemstones, Fu Chen suddenly smiled and nodded repeatedly: "No problem, of course there is no problem with this."
The wealthy man nodded with satisfaction: " Very good! Very good! "
At this moment, the prince of Sat tycoon seems to have seen that in the future royal military parade, an organized armed robot corps with the royal emblem will crush the enemy with impeccable combat power or accept the royal review.
His nephews, on the other hand, were wearing clean military uniforms, drinking iced coffee in a luxury command center with air conditioning and sofas hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, just like playing a high-end war simulation game, easily winning victory and honor.
And zero casualties, unscathed.
As I thought about it, the bright smile on the face of the rich prince was even harder to suppress than AK.
Fu Chen kept a professional and reserved smile on his face while listening to the translator, who did not understand Arabic.
After a while, the translator said next to Fu Chen: "The rich man asked how to sell the robot?"
Hearing this, Fu Chen said with a smile: "The purchase price is 2 million US dollars."
After the quotation, Fu Chen thought that the rich man was planning to plate it with gold and set it with gems, so the price should be acceptable.
After hearing the translation, the Shate rich man suddenly looked surprised and looked at Fu Chen silently.
This made Fu Chen murmur in his mind, does the unit price of US$2 million feel too expensive for rich people?
After a moment, the Sat tycoon prince looked excited: "Only 2 million U.S. dollars each? I thought it was 5 million U.S. dollars. My friend, you are really too conscientious in doing business!!"
After hearing the translation, Fu Chen looked slightly stunned.
It’s broken! The price quoted is low.
I knew that local tyrants were very wealthy, but I didn’t expect them to be so wealthy.
Fu Chen found that his situation was too small, his situation was too small!
At this time, Prince Sat said without hesitation: "We plan to purchase a brigade of 6,000 troops first."
As soon as these words came out, Fu Chen's heart skipped a beat. The unit price was US$2 million. Taking into account training, maintenance and other expenses, the price of a single robot could reach US$2.45 million. If 6,000 were purchased, that would be US$14.7 billion. According to the current exchange rate, it would be equivalent to RMB 100 billion.
Fu Chen quickly calmed himself down and said with a smile, "No problem, Your Highness."
Hitchhik, the two parties sat down to discuss the details and slowly discussed the specific contract agreement. Regarding some technical anti-theft agreements, the wealthy man said directly that there was no problem without even thinking about it.
The local tyrants are those who understand technology.
…
At the same time, military observers from various countries who came to the air show have immediately sent information about this foreign trade version of the armed robot back to the headquarters.
The military institutions of various countries are also very busy now, especially the United States.
That night, it was daytime in the Western Hemisphere at the same time.
Beimei, Wujiao Building.
The scene being played on the huge screen in the conference room was a scene of two armed robots competing at the extreme end of the air show.
The video being played shows a confrontation between two armed robots from multiple angles.
Seven or eight senior officers sitting on the long table looked at the video being played, their faces extremely solemn, especially a silent senior army general.
"Everyone, this is the latest information sent back by our observers at the Zhuhai Air Show."
James Olson, who was presiding over the meeting, broke the silence and tapped the report he had just printed on the table with his fingers.
The participants immediately circulated the documents to each other, and specially invited Dr. Ives, a robotics expert who was attending the meeting, to read the document. After a while, he pushed up his glasses and said with a hint of solemnity in his voice: "Everyone, judging from the data parameters they have publicly displayed, it is basically certain that they have advanced technology. "It's advanced."
The three-star army general's face was livid: "Isn't this the most advanced?"
Dr. David Ives said: "Huaguo Military Industry has always had the saying of "four generations," which is the exploration generation, pre-research generation, development generation, and production generation."
“This armed robot is a foreign trade military product, and its solid-state lattice battery is equipped with an energy density of 1000Wh/kg. It is basically certain that this will definitely not be their most advanced version of the battery.”
Olson immediately asked: "Can we judge what level their most advanced battery has reached?"
Ives shook his head repeatedly and said bluntly: "It is impossible to judge, 1000Wh/kg is already incredible. No matter how high it is, it’s beyond our imagination.”
After a while, Ives controlled the controller, and the screen stopped at the moment when the armed robot quickly changed direction to avoid the attack, and said: "I don’t want to exaggerate, but the stability and maneuverability of this robot..."
"For example, its joint drive unit technology far exceeds any of our current open or secret projects. This explosive power, emergency stop and direction change capability, and balance indicate that it has made great breakthroughs in power transmission, materials, and actual control algorithms."
"This is not just a better drive motor, but a disruptive breakthrough in the entire motion system."
< br/> The army general who attended the meeting couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, Boston Dynamics' robots are still shooting videos, while others can already form a mechanical corps."
Ives was silent for a moment, and said: "My conclusion is that this is not a single technology leader, but a public display of a highly integrated and mature complete combat system."
"It has extremely terrifying power in many aspects such as individual assaults, urban street fighting, and group suppression. What we are facing is a new weapon platform that may change the rules of future ground combat."
…
They all knew that Hua Guo must be working on armed robots, and they had already had psychological expectations when Yuanjie Intelligent Control exposed the R1 robot.
But I never expected that the speed would be so fast.
How long has it been? It took less than two years to fully plan, and the foreign trade version has even begun to be launched.
If the Hua people mass-produce and equip armed robots of this level, the "human sea tactics" will be redefined. What they will face in the future may not be waves of human warriors, but tens of thousands or even tens of millions of steel killing machines.
After the initial shock in various countries, they were gradually replaced by a deep sense of urgency, even fear.
Similar assessments and meetings have been held one after another in major Western military institutions, all of which are busy re-evaluating the issue of army modernization.
Huaguo basically did nothing, or was just advancing its own affairs according to its own plan, but other countries outside were naturally brought into the rhythm.
There is no way, living in the same world, it is impossible not to be affected.
Flesh vs. steel is no longer a possible or impossible problem, but a fact that will inevitably happen in the foreseeable future.
This is a loss regardless of the battle losses. The most important thing is that the recovery ability or consumption ability is not at the same level at all.
· One reduction in the number of human warriors is equivalent to one loss. For most countries, even a few powerful countries in Europe, the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops is enough to shake the country's foundation, because those who can participate in the war are often young and middle-aged people, who are the backbone of a country.
But the armed robot of the Man of Steel is a product of pure industrial manufacturing.
As long as the production line does not stop, explosive troops can be continuously supplied.
It takes an average of ten minutes to produce one. As long as the human operators who control the robots are safe and sound in the rear area, you will not lose a single human soldier if you replace dozens of armed robots on the front line, because I can replenish my troops so fast that you will be overwhelmed. If you exchange one human soldier for you within 10, it will be a huge profit.
…
At the air show, Metaverse Intelligent Control’s static exhibition area remains highly popular.
Military observers from various countries are paying close attention to this armed robot. The extreme free fighting confrontation demonstrated by Metaverse Intelligent Control in the outdoor dynamic display area was quickly reported by various media.
It spread on social media that day, especially in the military fan forum where the discussion was the most heated.
The video of two robots fighting freely not only became popular in China, but also became popular on the Internet just one day later, arousing heated discussions among netizens from all over the world.
[A generous gift and a thank you——! ]
[Is this really the technology that should be available in 2016? ]
[So, in the future, when humans fight, they will sit on both sides in an air-conditioned room and use a controller or VR to control these big guys to fight each other? Doesn't it sound... less scary? ]
[Unfortunately, it’s not both sides, just one of them. ]
[The important thing is not that they can fight well, but that they do not need to breathe, have no fear, and are absolutely obedient! ]
[Who can stop such a mechanical army? Or rather, who can stop the one who controls them? ]
[Oh my god, they even use this for foreign trade? ]
[That can only mean that they have mastered more advanced ones. ]
[So, did they get alien technology? ]
…
Three days later, it was the second half of the exhibition.
In the next three public days, visitors can enter the air show with their air show tickets.
With the fermentation of the previous three days, a large number of military fans who came to the air show went straight to the Yuanjie Intelligent Control exhibition area to see the robots. The place was once again crowded with tourists and spectators on three floors outside.
"Take a photo with it for me, from this angle!"
A visitor turned his back to the robot and handed his mobile phone to his companion to help him take pictures. Then his companion also gave him his own mobile phone and asked him to help him take a few pictures.
· Visitors and military fans at the scene marveled at the armed robots on display and took various photos at the same time.
"Handsome! Tsk, tsk, tsk, these lines, this polishing, this metallic texture, this sense of power, awesome!" I saw a young military fan carrying a camera and wearing camouflage pants. His eyes were as wide as searchlights, and he kept making praises.
When Yuanjie Intelligent Control exposed the R1 robot, he began to pay attention and firmly believed that this robot would definitely be used in the military.
This military fan also didn’t forget to take photos.
He really likes this armed robot, which is full of science fiction and violent aesthetics.
The most important thing is that this is something that belongs to one’s own country.
At this moment, he wanted to get close to his face and take a closer look. He took a camera and pointed it at the heat dissipation grille and bulletproof texture on the robot's drive unit casing and kept taking pictures.
Professional photography enthusiasts held long guns and short cannons and took sharp shots of every detail, the modular interface of the shoulder armor, the multi-finger structure of the hand that combines strength and precision, the cold mechanical locking mechanism of the weapon rack on the back...
