Chapter 149 Let’s Take Charge

Chen Yongqi's death came to an end with Lin Ran's inexplicable death at the truth trial. Chen Dingsong also disappeared after returning to the Chen family manor. Chen Yuanguang returned to the University of Malaya with countless doubts. On the way to send him back, Chen Yonglin asked:
“The ancestors will definitely investigate who killed Yonglin. Lin Ran’s death is just the beginning. It will be a big deal if the truth trial is cracked, a big deal that will shake the earth.

The ancestor should have gone back to deal with this matter.

If you are interested in joining the human resistance army, please feel free to contact me and I will arrange for you to go to Lion City for testing and training."

After returning to the University of Malaya with doubts, Chen Yuanguang thought about the possible impact of a series of events in his room.

What Chen Dingsong said to him on the way back, coupled with Lin Ran's sudden death, made Chen Yuanguang smell something like a storm was about to come.

According to his own simple values, combined with the modern history he had learned and the human resistance army mentioned by Chen Dingsong, Chen Yuanguang realized that there was a part of the human race that had never accepted being ruled by artificial intelligence, and they were always thinking about how to get rid of this situation.

Alpha has the advantage, which is a technological advantage and the advantage brought by absolute crushing in cyberspace.

Once the advantage in cyberspace is lost, the power of both sides will be brought to the same level.

But if brain-machine fusion technology is successful, then after the individual participating in the brain-machine fusion experiment defeats Alpha with his help, will he evolve into the next Alpha, or even a worse Alpha?

Artificial intelligence has emotions, but it has no social relationships. The brain-machine fusion individual can be seen as a superhuman. He will have selfish desires and past interpersonal relationships. If he has selfish desires, what will society become?

Chen Yuanguang feels that if this line of deduction continues, the future may really evolve into a cyberpunk society.

The next day, he went to look for Samad first, but Samad was not there and he couldn't get in touch with him online either. The other party just said that he had something to deal with, but didn't say what it was.

Chen Yuanguang realized that Samad’s disappearance might be related to this truth trial and targeted memory erasure technology, and all forces began to move.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door and a visitor appeared on the holographic screen. He didn't wait for Samad, but Shi Huilan came to him first.

She personally sent the other party's father to the truth tribunal and then died accidentally. Although Shi Huilan herself wanted to do so, she wanted to imprison Lin Ran permanently. Permanent imprisonment is different from death.

Chen Yuanguang thought for a moment and finally opened the door. The moment he opened it, Shi Huilan hit him hard twice: "We are even now."

Chen Yuanguang murmured, "I'm sorry."

Shi Huilan shook her head: "There is nothing to apologize for. This matter has nothing to do with you. Since my father underwent a targeted memory erasure surgery, it means that he must be related to the death of your parents.

It also means that he gave his life to the experimenter and died because of his own fluke mentality. "

Chen Yuanguang asked quickly, "Are you sure your father was able to circumvent the truth trial by relying on a targeted memory erasure surgery?"

Shi Huilan said: "My guess is that his body has not been returned yet. According to official information, an SR-II micro-nano biological robot bomb was implanted in his brain. It was the explosion of the bomb that caused the blood supply to the brain to stop, leading to his instant death.

The Huafeng Group is facing investigation and the situation in Yanjing is tense. If it weren’t for the targeted memory surgery, the situation would not be so tense.

I came to see you and punch you twice. Although I said that I would send my father to the trial of truth, I am still a little sad about his death. I will feel much better if I punch you twice.

Also, I came to say goodbye to you. I will be returning to Yanjing with my mother soon. My father has passed away, and there is no need for us to stay in Malaysia any longer."

After that, Shi Huilan gave Chen Yuanguang a deep hug. Chen Yuanguang smelled the hibiscus fragrance on the girl in front of him, and then his mind went blank. He was thinking, is this considered cheating? It shouldn't be, Lin Jia can't cross time and space to chase the murderer.

After the hug, Shi Huilan's eyes became even redder. "Take care, and I wish you a safe journey," said Chen Yuanguang.

Shi Huilan asked, "Do you want to go back to Yanjing with me?"

Chen Yuanguang was stunned: "Me? Not good."

Shi Huilan said: "There's nothing wrong with it. You can just be a son-in-law like my father. However, considering that the old man of the Chen family is a fifth-level citizen, this is called a marriage of alliance."

Chen Yuanguang thought, Lin Jia and I haven’t gotten married yet, but we are going to get married in the future. Thinking of Lin Jia, he still flatly refused: "I have no intention of getting married yet."

Shi Huilan turned around and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she said to him, "If you have made up your mind, tell me on IM.

Remember to tell me if you come to Yanjing."

After Shi Huilan left, Chen Yuanguang felt a huge emptiness in his heart, because she was his only good friend in the future time and space.

After waiting for a whole week, Chen Yuanguang was reading public technical documents. He realized that the future time and space was on the eve of drastic changes, and he had to make progress in the real time and space as soon as possible, otherwise his influence on the future time and space would be zero.

The original slow plan for advancement in the real world was far from enough. The human hibernation technology had huge limitations. Hibernation in a dimension for ten years would make it impossible to be separated from the life-support fluid, which was unacceptable to him.

A week later, Chen Yuanguang finally met Samad in his office at the University of Malaya. Samad's face was full of fatigue: "Yuanguang, the Chen family has done something big."

Samad's tone was full of excitement. Chen Yuanguang heard it and said, "To be precise, it was the old man who did it, not the Chen family."

Samad nodded repeatedly: "The old man is indeed courageous, and he deserves to be known as the Fox of Kuala Lumpur. He is actually a Level 5 citizen, a Level 5 citizen certified by Alpha, and at the same time a high-ranking member of the Human Resistance Army. He sits on the fence between the two sides and is accepted by both sides.

What a remarkable person.”

Samad continued, "I had only heard that Mr. Chen had given himself the name Yingchuantang Chen. After all, no family in China still cares about the name of a family. In Malaysia, you can use any family name you want. I didn't expect that Mr. Chen actually had this ability.

Maybe he can really prop up Yingchuan Hall." Apparently, the news that Chen Dingchuan was a fifth-level citizen had spread. As a person who only showed up once every ten years, he was a person with a high level of legend but little concept of reality.

After the citizen levels came out, everyone had an idea of ​​how awesome it was.

In modern time and space, people are measured by their worth, but in the future when everyone is under the Alpha management system, citizenship level will obviously be the most intuitive.

Chen Yuanguang didn't pay much attention to the citizen class, but noticed the human resistance army mentioned by Samad: "Professor, have you heard of the human resistance army?"

Samad nodded: "Of course, they are a bunch of crazy people who don't care about their lives.

I once thought about joining the human resistance army, but after I bought a human resistance army training chip from the black market, I experienced their training content in virtual reality and gave up decisively.

I am not someone who can endure such hardship, but you are different. The old man of the Chen family might send you to the front line against your will.

If you are interested, I can lend you the training chip when I go back to find it. You can prepare yourself mentally. The training of the human resistance army is no joke. "

Samad was in high spirits, and Chen Yuanguang quickly said, "Thank you, Professor. I haven't decided whether to join the human resistance army yet.

The old man said that we should respect personal wishes. If I want to join, I can go. "

Samad waved his hand: "The successful development of the targeted memory erasure surgery not only means that the cornerstone of Alpha's control system is shaky, but also means that his management costs will increase significantly, and there will be more people in the upper echelons who pretend to obey but actually disobey.

No one is willing to lose power in this way, and Alpha has made too many peaces, compromises, and deals in the process of controlling the earth, resulting in the original upper class still having a lot of social resources. With the Trial of Truth in place, they dare not cooperate with the human resistance at will.

Even if they had ideas before, they did not dare to act on them. But now the ambitious people will become restless, supporting the human resistance with resources, providing support with manpower, and even demanding certain powers.

The human resistance will enter a period of rapid development, and the possibility of conflict with Alpha will also increase significantly.

It was like this before, but it’s different now. Your personal wishes may not be respected now.”

After listening to this, Chen Yuanguang didn't care too much about joining the human resistance army, because he had already made up his mind to make certain achievements in the real time and space before going to the future time and space. By then, even if he joined the human resistance army, he would be a scientific researcher rather than a submarine soldier.

He needs to make a breakthrough in brain-machine integration and prove his value before he can have bargaining power.

Whether in the future or now, your values ​​determine your chances of survival in turbulent times.

After the invention of room-temperature superconductors in modern time and space, his protection level has been raised to the highest level. Even if a hot war breaks out, he is sure that he will be protected. In the future time and space, he will not rashly join the human resistance before proving his worth.

"Professor, based on what you just said, can I assume that the developers behind the targeted memory erasure technology and the human resistance army have the same goal of resisting Alpha's rule?

If that's the case, why did the old man reveal this technology in public, under the watchful eyes of Alpha?"

Samad explained: "You are right, everyone has the same goal, but it is important who finally achieves this goal.

The old man of the Chen family obviously obtained intelligence and forced the other party into danger, so that the other party would be willing to take out the technology for trading, instead of hiding the information through the dark web and using exclusive technology as a bargaining chip in the enclave to blackmail the resistance organization.

The Human Resistance is the largest resistance organization, but that doesn’t mean they are the only resistance organization.”

After talking with Samad, most of Chen Yuanguang's doubts were answered. His next step was to achieve certain technological breakthroughs in modern time and space.

The four hundred years of time advantage made it extremely difficult for him to achieve a technological breakthrough in modern time and space. Chen Yuanguang had no confidence at all.

Before leaving Future, Chen Yuanguang came to the airport and watched Shi Huilan leave Kuala Lumpur on the Huafeng Group's space shuttle. He did not tell her about the abnormality of Shi Minning that he had observed in the trial.

After returning to modern time and space, Chen Yuanguang directly brought his colleagues from the Light Armor Space Rocket R&D team together for a meeting:
"I have been thinking about the design of Pioneer II recently. This is the next generation of Vulcan engine I designed. We will not use liquid oxygen-kerosene propellant this time, but low-temperature hydrogen and oxygen, and use a closed cycle of staged combustion to increase its vacuum ratio.

The circulation mode is replaced by circulating low-temperature hydrogen and oxygen and gas generators.

The cryogenic hydrogen-oxygen propellant is obtained from an external tank, so we only need to control the external tank. After the launch is completed, the engine and other parts of the entire first-stage rocket are separated and then recovered separately.

We use ablative nozzles in the gas generator cycle. I did a simple calculation and found that it can reduce 80% of parts and 90% of manual labor. This ensures that our suppliers are concentrated in a very small range. Fewer suppliers means that we can strictly control these suppliers and avoid problems with product differences.

Everyone, please take a look at my design drawings. You will need to conduct a lot of ground tests based on my design to verify the feasibility of the technical solution. Through long-term ground tests, you can expose weak links and make improvements to ensure its high reliability. "

Chen Yuanguang projected the design drawings onto his notebook, and then said, "I will send the design plan to Jiashan later. Although I am absolutely sure of my plan, you still have to do a comprehensive feasibility verification."

Chen Yuanguang’s previous idea was to cultivate a team and enable everyone to have the ability to innovate and unleash collective strength.

It now seems that if he continues to do things this way, the efficiency will not satisfy him. The sense of crisis in the future time and space makes him decide to take on everything himself and give priority to efficiency.

The era of efficiency being king has arrived, and as for collective strength, this has been given lower priority.

".These configurations can achieve the goal of simplifying the complexity of the engine system, thereby improving the thrust and thrust-to-weight ratio of the Vulcan engine. Then we use the higher overall and structural consistency to improve the structural efficiency of the rocket body, making up for the weakness of the original Vulcan engine's low specific impulse, and making full use of the engine's multiple start and wide range throttling capabilities.

Finally, 18 Vulcan engines were used in parallel and the first-stage rocket body was able to take off and land vertically and be reused.

This is the overall design idea. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We will start taking action after this meeting.”

Chen Yuanguang's tone was irrefutable and full of absolute confidence that none of your design plans were as good as mine.
