Pei Ran, one of the few big figures in the field of mechanical limbs on Earth, was once called the gospel of the disabled.
He graduated from one of the top universities in Jijixing, and completed his doctoral studies with his undergraduate roommate Pei Yuanzheng. The two have been inseparable since they were undergraduates. They worked side by side in scientific research for ten years, and finally made breakthrough progress in the field of myoelectric prostheses.
Now they have become leaders in the research of myoelectric prostheses. Because of their partnership and the coincidence of having the same surname, they are also known as the "Pei brothers".
But in the many years since they became famous, the two brothers have never encountered anything as weird as today. They were woken up by a phone call in the early morning, and a senior government official personally led a team to visit their residences.
That was a big shot that even with their current connections, they would never be able to reach.
To have such a big shot suddenly come to your door in the middle of the night, you can tell with your feet that it must be an unusual situation. The higher the status of the person, the more likely they are to carry it clearly at this time, so they followed the visitor without asking any questions.
No matter what they asked along the way, the only answer they got was "confidential". The two brothers were clearly arranged along the way, and a group of men in black who looked very professional but unsmiling were responsible for the handover throughout the process.
First, there was a series of tests, and a group of professionals came and asked them questions like they always did. The two brothers were confused. Then people suspected of being from the legendary Secret Service No. 9 also showed up and asked them some questions.
They were inspected in detail by cutting-edge equipment that they had never seen before. They didn't know what they were inspected. They only knew that it took the inspection team a long time before they told Fatty that there was no problem.
Finally they were taken to the airport.
The two of them felt like they were important witnesses in the movie. When they arrived at the airport, they also took a special passage. When they came out, the special plane had already started its engine and was waiting there. It took off as soon as they boarded the plane.
The two brothers looked at each other, feeling as if they hadn't woken up. They discussed in low voices for a long time on the plane, asking whether one of their projects involved upper-level secrets, but they couldn't come up with an answer for a long time.
It wasn't until the plane landed that they realized their destination was Jiangdu.
The motorcade drove them straight from the airport. After walking through the night city for a while, their car stopped outside a towering building.
The two quickly recognized this building because it was quite famous.
This building is owned by the ZF. It was originally designed to be the tallest building on the Earth Star and was expected to become a new landmark in Jiangdu. However, due to cost and some construction disputes, the height was reduced by ten floors when completed, and "
The tallest building record was missed.
The building was completed earlier this year. It remains vacant for the time being due to a reduction in the number of floors and some unresolved disputes.
This made the two of them even more puzzled. Why did the superiors go to such trouble to call them here?
When they reached the top floor, they were even more surprised.
They were not the first ones to come here. Many people were already waiting here. Many of them knew each other. There were big bosses in the biomedical field, some in the energy field, and some in the electromechanical field. Everyone was an absolute leader in their respective fields.
Characters. Even Director Shi and Dr. Hines of Secret Service 9.
Scanning the entire room, they only saw a figure who seemed to be non-academic. But the background of this person made them even more frightened.
Chai Pingdong. Ordinary civilians may not know the position of a top official, but the Pei brothers recognize it and are more aware of how powerful this person is on the Earth Star. Being pulled over by such a big shot in the middle of the night on a special plane traveling thousands of miles away, brother
Both of them felt somewhat flattered.
They said hello, and at Chai Pingdong's signal, they sat down in the living room on the top floor. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room was an open-air balcony, which was said to have the best view of the night view of Jiangdu.
"Okay, everyone is almost here."
Chai Pingdong spoke, and everyone present fell silent, all eyes focused on him.
"You must be curious as to why you, the elites who are responsible for the future of mankind, are all called together. You must be wondering if something big is going on.
I can tell you that you are right.
This is an unprecedented event that affects our entire human civilization and requires the best of us."
There was another commotion among the elites, and they seemed to be a little shocked. Everyone present was experienced and experienced, but such a weird situation was unheard of. If anyone else said this, they would just think it was absurd.
It was a joke, but considering the extraordinary battle tonight and the identity of the leader in front of them, they couldn't help but start to wonder whether they had picked up an alien spacecraft or dug up an ancient carrot.
"You may soon see some shocking facts and come into contact with some technologies that will turn the world upside down. And the task of all of you here is to help the world adapt to the changes they bring.
And these changes all come from one person. Oh, speaking of this, he seems to be almost there..."
Everyone became more and more curious after hearing this.
It sounds like such a big battle, such a huge effort to bring them here from all over the world, is all for one person?
What kind of strange person can qualify to be called "influencing human civilization"?
And soon they got their answer.
At first, they naively thought that it was a meteor from the sky, coming from among the stars, dragging a beautiful and deadly long tail flame, and descending into the steel jungle created by mortals.
Until they discovered that the thing was actually coming here.
With the roar of the engine, the steel armor descended from the sky with flames on its feet, like a red-gold steel god of war, landing on the outdoor balcony.
Everyone opened their mouths wide and looked at the red gold steel body that walked into the room. They were so shocked that they could not speak.
The armor opened, and Tony Stark, neatly dressed in a suit, walked out of the iron shell, and the armor immediately closed behind him.
"Good evening, gentlemen. Or should I say morning?" Tony greeted, "At least now we have all seen Jiangdu at four in the morning."
Chai Pingdong stood up very respectfully: "Mr. Stark."
Seeing Stark walking out of the armor, everyone's eyes widened even more, almost popping out of their sockets.
"This is...this is the Iron Man in the news..."
Pei Yuanzheng pointed at the armor standing behind him and stammered.
"Thank you, but technically I am Iron Man." Tony said casually, "So are you. I have seen most of your resumes on the road, and they are impressive. You have the best abilities.
And I only work with the best people."
Pei Yuanzheng opened his mouth again, but was speechless for a moment, or it could be that the information they suddenly received made them feel so heavy that they couldn't think of how to speak.
So the big man I just mentioned who will overturn the world...
The two of them looked at Chai Pingdong blankly.
"Yes, gentlemen, allow me to formally introduce your new superior, Mr. Tony Stark. Or you can use his more familiar name..."
Chai Pingdong said.
"......iron Man."
The breathing of countless people present seemed to have been cut off.
Iron Man is a name that almost no one can ignore on this planet in recent days.
Some people say it is cutting-edge technology, while others say it is alien metal life. But if you ask the scientific research experts present, their votes will definitely be for the latter.
Because the more knowledgeable people are, the more they understand how outrageous this set of things flying in the sky is. It is one of those anti-scientific objects that looks very technological, but when you think about it carefully, it makes no sense from head to toe.
A typical sci-fi product with more imagination than logic.
But at this moment, they saw with their own eyes that this thing was actually a technological creation, a battle armor.
When they saw Tony Stark walking out of it leisurely, many people present were stunned for a moment. It felt as if the knowledge they had learned throughout their lives was greatly affected by the red and gold humanoid armor.
challenge.
"Ha, you also prepared wine."
Tony walked to the wine cabinet and bar in the room, picked up a bottle of wine and poured it into a glass.
In fact, Chu Cheng was a little surprised that he could still do this. But after he landed, there was a sign similar to mission guidance on the bar. After operating Stark and walking over, the interactive button appeared on the screen.
Clicking the interaction button, Tony Stark began to pour the wine on his own.
Okay, this is very Stark.
"Would you like some?" Tony shook his cup at the people in the room.
But no one seemed to be in the mood to drink.
Chai Pingdong walked up: "We have gathered the best people and plan to set up a special committee. They will be directly responsible for material requirements, technical supervision and release, etc. They will directly connect with you and give you any orders if you need them.
You can give it to them directly...
...Of course this is just one of the plans we propose. Mr. Stark, if you feel it is inappropriate, of course everything will still be based on your wishes..."
"There's nothing inappropriate." Tony interrupted, "But we still have specific regulations and details to finalize regarding future matters, and those must be in accordance with my requirements.
But my time is tight today, so my assistant will contact you later, and you can slowly negotiate this part with her..."
The scientists behind this point all roughly understood what the situation was, and all of them couldn't help but have their eyes blazing. Even Director Shi and Dr. Hines, who were already aware of the situation at the lunatic asylum, were no exception.
Although it is irrefutable that the phenomenon of human-to-human transmission in the lunatic asylum may have started in their equipment department, to be honest, Minister Shi felt that they did not bear the blame at all.
The technology of these people is getting better and better, and the more they study it, the more they find that humans still have limits. For example, things like teleportation devices, bat-wing heat vision cannons, etc., need to be pointed at by the equipment department.
Studying these things with a few actual combat videos is like throwing the design drawings of an aircraft carrier to an ancient man who was still wearing bronze armor. He wouldn't be able to understand it even if someone taught him step by step.
But if conditions permit, who really wants to be a valuable? Even salted fish want to bask in the sun. Technology that once seemed magical is now at your fingertips. Minister Shi feels that he has never been so excited in his life.
However, after making a comparison, he realized that he was quite polite. Dr. Hines, who was traveling with him, looked at the Iron Man armor standing like a guard and looked like a slut, almost to the point of being embarrassed.
Stark snapped his fingers. The silent Mark 43 armor on the side suddenly started to move, as if it had woken up from a deep sleep. The eyes of the steel helmet slowly lit up, and the holographic projection device on the armor operated, floating the
The screen was projected in mid-air.
That's what Friday outlined as what he plans to offer in the first phase, a list of high-tech technologies.
The scientists couldn't wait to get together. Stark waved his hand and made an adjustment, and the floating screen suddenly split and transformed into countless split screens floating in front of each of them.
This virtual interactive interface technology alone has amazed everyone for a while.
After each of them got the screen, they swiped it down and glanced at it. They quickly understood why they needed so many cross-field experts to form this committee.
The range of technologies in this list is indeed a bit broad. It involves biology and genetic research, and then suddenly takes a sharp turn and rushes into the industrial field, mechanical development, algorithm programming...
The Pei brothers soon saw the project of bionic prosthetics in the catalog page. That is the field that the two of them specialize in, and it is what gives them their current status, so they are naturally particularly sensitive to it. They agree on the same point
When I walked in, I just glanced at the product summary and was shocked.
"The nerve-connected mechanical prosthesis directly transmits through the cranial nerves. Experimental expectations...fuck? Isn't this faster than the human body's own nerve conduction?"
Pei Ran said, "Fuck!"
"No, and it outputs power...this..." He raised his head in surprise, "This should be considered a superpower, right?"
"According to your standards of superpowers, I guess it counts." Tony shrugged.
Others also quickly understood why the Pei brothers were so shocked. They didn’t need to be experts in the relevant fields to see how crazy this technology could bring. It has faster reaction speed and stronger strength than the original limbs.
Mechanical prostheses may not only be good news for people with disabilities.
They can already foresee that there may be a large number of people with no physical impairments who will go crazy trying to get this kind of thing. It is no longer just an auxiliary for the disabled, it can even become a real power!
And the abstract also mentioned that not only can they add a power system with good output to a lightweight and simple mechanical prosthetic limb, but they can even further weaponize it and assemble individual weapons if necessary!
The tone of this summary of only a few words seems casual, as if it is just describing an extremely insignificant matter. But a real expert can see at a glance what these few words are referring to.
What an outrageous black technology.
Although it seems to describe an ordinary arm or leg, for such an inconspicuous piece of equipment, its neural link system, power structure, and weapon assembly, I wish every mechanism and every part were...
A bombshell powerful enough to cause earthquakes in many areas.
"Gentlemen Danding, this is just scratching the surface." Tony waved his hand to interrupt the astonishment caused by this technology, "This is already a very superficial thing. Where I come from, this has already been done for a long time.
It is a technology that can be seen everywhere on the street. It is not a unique technology. Many companies and institutions are doing it quite well.
No, or it should be said that some personal scientific research can develop it, it is not something very rare, let alone a secret.
So don’t get too excited. Everyone here is a scientific elite, and I believe you should understand best that the development of science and technology cannot be achieved overnight. For example...it."
Tony knocked casually on the helmet of Mark No. 43, who was standing nearby. The Iron Man armor actually lowered its head intelligently, like a submissive cat, letting its owner knock its iron skull with reverberations.
