I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 276: Ten Million Dollar Technology Reward!
Regarding the visit of the American delegation, Chen Jue already knew that it would be impossible for him to reach any cooperation with them.

It's not just the sentimentality of the Chinese people that's at work.

In addition, the emergence of MC's black technology is destined to prevent him from being like an ordinary businessman, engaging in strategic cooperation with other technology companies and exchanging technology privately.

After all, the pixel block technology from MC cannot be explained to the outside world.

"Who cares about the ball?"

"It's time to eat and drink. The Americans can play with whoever they want, but don't delay me from gaining points." When Chen Jue saw Musk and others being chased away by the iron golems, a smirk of triumph appeared on his face.

He took out his cell phone and opened the game King of Glory.

The familiar voice of timi sounded, and he started to have fun with the randomly matched teammates who were terrible and noobs.

……

At the same time, Musk got the little toy given by Chen Jue.

But at this moment, after returning to the Tesla Model X parked at the door, it was like he had grabbed the last straw.

He stared at the rod + small cube toy combination in his hand with excitement, and kept talking to himself: "There is hope! There is definitely hope! As long as we can replicate this toy, we will have a chance to obtain the key technology of the Rubik's Cube Group!"

When Musk first arrived at Magic Cube Group, he thought that this inspection and negotiation visit would definitely fail.

Because he had just got off the Rui County Expressway, he was able to get a glimpse of the technical strength of the Magic Cube Group through the various details displayed locally.

The kind of technical crush that made him, a man known as America's Iron Man, feel suffocated was coming at him.

Faced with such a negotiating opponent, it would be difficult to get the desired answer from the Magic Cube Group if you don't come up with enough bargaining chips to impress the other party.

Moreover, as soon as they arrived at the Magic Cube Group, the entire inspection team suffered several setbacks. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that this trip would definitely not be successful.

Even meeting that president has become a luxury!

But I never thought that after visiting with the mentality that I was doomed to fail, the situation would actually usher in such a big turnaround!
This scene is comparable to a "miracle", how could Musk not feel excited and inspired?
However, Larry, the Boeing representative who was traveling with him, was staring at the small toy that kept spinning in Musk's hand, with a look of worry on his face.

"Elon, are you sure that President Jue will agree to authorize us to follow-up drawings and technologies?" Larry asked first.

Musk nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Larry! I come to China often and I know Chinese people very well. They value their reputation the most, especially geniuses like Jue who have studied technology. They cherish their reputation even more!"

"During the conversation just now, I saw confidence in Mr. Jue's eyes... No! It's arrogance!"

"Perhaps this CEO was too confident in the processing technology of the Magic Cube Group. He was so overwhelmed by this confidence that he made such an arrogant bet in one breath!"

After that, Musk held up the toy and observed it carefully for a moment: "Metal processing like this probably involves very high machining precision. According to my guess, those flying Rubik's cubes are also likely to use similar machining precision."

"Otherwise, with just a simple mechanical structure design, it would be impossible to ignore the friction between the metals and rotate for so long!"

"This is the boss, he is giving us a test through this little toy!"

After this was said, Larry, the Boeing representative, also became interested.

If we can analyze the processing precision of such a small toy, we can get a glimpse of the technical secrets behind those sci-fi Flying Rubik's Cubes.

For Boeing, this may mean holding the key to the future of aerospace and aviation!

So after chatting with Musk for a while, Larry took out his mobile phone and took some videos and photos of this handy work of the Magic Cube Group.

The relevant video data was then sent to Boeing's technical department to see if professional engineers could analyze and judge whether the mystery of this small toy could be discovered.

……

At the same time, far away in Austin, Texas, America, Tesla headquarters.

After receiving the relevant information about the two small metal parts sent remotely by Musk, Tesla's huge mechanical and metal research and development departments all started to operate urgently.

More than 300 Tesla engineers with master's and doctoral degrees from top universities around the world gathered together and listened to their department heads assigning urgent tasks in the conference room.

"My dear colleagues!"

"Just now, Mr. Elon sent a sample document from China."

"He wants to commission all of us to make a 1:1 replica of this little toy based on these video materials!"

As soon as the words fell, the department head turned on the VCR on the screen. The metal toy that was spinning in Musk's hand, which looked like a bamboo dragonfly, appeared in the sight of these Tesla engineers.

In addition, this VCR recorded in the car also contains Musk's own explanation: "Can anyone imitate such a handicraft? If anyone can do it, I will personally provide a $1000 million bonus for the person who completes it!"

After hearing this bounty offer, the more than 300 Tesla engineers at the scene were all excited!

Just by copying a small mechanical gadget, you can get a bonus of 1000 million dollars?

Could it be that our boss drank fake wine at a social gathering in China and started talking nonsense in front of the camera?
Facing the engineers' doubts, the department head immediately confirmed, "This is true! Mr. Elon promised it himself, and even asked the finance department to prepare a check worth 1000 million in advance!"

When they heard that even the checks were ready, the engineers who were called to work overtime in the middle of the night calmed down a lot.

A middle-aged engineer sitting near the front immediately raised his hand and asked, "Sir! Do you have the detailed dimensions of this gadget, as well as the composition analysis chart of the metal material? Although it can be roughly seen from the video that its structure is not complicated, if we can get more accurate measurement dimensions and material composition, it may speed up the process of copying it!"

Upon hearing this, the department manager quickly switched the big screen to a hand-drawn draft and patiently explained, "Mr. Elon is currently on his way to the Tesla Gigafactory in Shanghai, and it will take him about three hours to get there. This is a structural diagram he drew on the road with a simple measuring ruler, and the measurement accuracy can be as accurate as millimeters at most."

"As for the processing material, it is currently speculated to be stainless steel! As for what kind of stainless steel it is, we need to take it back for further analysis."

When everyone looked at the hand-drawn draft and compared it with the gadget shown in the VCR just now, they immediately analyzed the structure of this small toy similar to a bamboo dragonfly.

“It doesn’t look like a very complicated structural design. There isn’t even any fixed connecting parts in the middle!”

"Such a simple gadget, even a child can make it! Do we need to call the entire department to work overtime?"

"A reward of tens of millions of dollars was offered for this?"

The engineers present were muttering in their hearts, and rows of invisible (black question marks) flashed across each other's heads.

Only the middle-aged engineer who raised his hand just now asked seriously: "Sir! Can you play the VCR you just showed again?"

The department head quickly responded by playing the little gadget that kept spinning in the camera again.

However, when everyone discovered that no matter how the progress bar at the bottom of the video screen moved, this small metal toy that looked like a bamboo dragonfly kept spinning on the screen.

When the 5-minute recorded video was played, this seemingly simple little toy showed no signs of slowing down or stagnation throughout the entire process.

Seeing this scene, many Tesla engineers straightened up in their chairs and became very focused!

"Without external kinetic energy, it can rotate for more than 5 minutes just by the first push?"

“It looks like this little thing was machined with very high precision!”

"The connection between the bottom bar and the metal on top must have been polished very smoothly!"

"It's a bit like the fingertip decompression spinning top my son plays with. You only need to apply force in an initial direction and it will spin for a long time."

"If we can get the specific rotation time, we may be able to deduce the friction coefficient of the contact part through a formula."

There was a lot of discussion in the meeting room.

These highly educated Tesla engineers started brainstorming below.

Faced with a reward of tens of millions of dollars, no one would remain unmoved.

Including the middle-aged engineer who asked questions just now, he continued to ask: "Sir! Can we connect with Mr. Elon and ask him to record the entire rotation process of this object in detail? It is best to find a closed and windless environment to record it! In this way, we can better judge the processing accuracy range of this object!"

The department manager thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he sent a message to explain the engineers' proposal. After receiving an OK reply, he immediately made a video call and planned to have an online video conference to communicate with Musk in more detail.

But I didn't expect it!
As soon as the video call was connected, Musk on the other end of the video was staring at the spinning bamboo dragonfly toy in his hand with a look of horror, and said to all the Tesla engineers in the conference room: "Colleagues! This damn thing has been spinning for more than 15 minutes since we left the Rubik's Cube Factory!"

"So far there has been no sign of stagnation in my hands!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference room fell silent!

More than 300 engineers present felt a chill on their backs and goose bumps appeared on their arms.

"Turning for more than 15 minutes?"

"Mr. Musk, are you sure you didn't miscalculate the time?"
