My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 434 Time Club Internal Meeting

China Resources Building.

In a conference room.

Chu Zhu glanced at everyone present with an inscrutable expression. These were all members of the Time Club: Huo Qisi, Zhao Shao, and Lin Xia.

"What happened in the future?" Lin Xia asked with a serious expression.

"If I had to say, it's because too many people died!" Chu Zhu said noncommittally, casually tossing a book toward Lin Xia. Lin Xia caught it hastily, flipped through a couple of pages, and then her expression became incredibly interesting. She instinctively looked at Chu Zhu: "Seriously? This is ridiculous..."

"Could it be..." Zhao Shao vaguely guessed something, and his heart began to pound uncontrollably.

“Yes!” Lin Xia glanced at Chu Zhu and, seeing that Chu Zhu did not stop her, understood that Chu Zhu had agreed to the leak. She immediately nodded and said frankly, “It’s my future self… In general, there are many problems that I haven’t discovered yet, but here, the solutions are already in my hands! That’s really something.”

Huo Qisi remained silent for a long while, exchanging glances with Zhao Shao. He gave a bitter smile, his emotions complex, and said, "Indeed, I really want to say something right now, but I can't say it... Oh, right!"

Huo Qisi suddenly realized something, her eyes shining as she looked at Chu Zhu: "Did my future self... pass on to me...?"

"No." Chu Zhu said succinctly. Huo Qisi's expression stiffened for a moment, then he heard Chu Zhu explain, "You seem to have become withdrawn. In the future, you don't want to see me!"

"..." Huo Qisi's expression changed, countless thoughts flashing through his mind, his face becoming solemn. His future self felt apologetic towards Chu Zhu? Why? Could it be betrayal...? No, betrayal wouldn't allow him to continue attending the meeting, so...

There was no betrayal, but a mistake was made... at least, the future Hozis felt he had made a very important mistake?!
"In other words," Zhao Shao's gaze swept between the two, "that dead person...was me?"

"Hmm!" Chu Zhu nodded, rubbing her temples. "Speaking of which, there have been quite a few assassination attempts targeting you, or rather, everyone! However, Z managed to stop most of them..."

It has to be said, Z is just too amazing. With Z, Chu Zhu will rarely see her friends and family die from assassination in the future—

Zhao Shao's future death will also be caused by the enemy using powerful beings created through sacrifice. This method of breaking through the impasse through brute force... is almost unsolvable without power of equal strength!
"So..." Zhao Shao pursed his lips, "Is there anything you need me to do?"

"I need you to go and study Skynet in the future!" Chu Zhu said, enunciating each word clearly. Seeing the confusion on Zhao Shao's face, he made a pause gesture: "Don't ask now, you'll understand in the future."

Ignoring the realization that flashed in Zhao Shao's eyes, Chu Zhu turned to Huo Qisi: "Your future daughter will also be a member of the Time Club! You can try teaching her what you're good at now..."

"Um, are you serious?" Huo Qisi's eyes twitched.

"?"

“If she really has a talent for this, she would have learned a lot from me long ago…” Huo Qisi said with a bitter face.

"That means she doesn't want to learn anymore!" Chu Zhu's face showed a thoughtful expression. After all, the future Huo Yuan said that she had talent, and the future Miss Huo would not lie to him.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a decision: "Huo Yuan once witnessed me display extraordinary power... She must be very curious about it, right?"

“Of course! But she didn’t ask.” Huo Qisi’s voice was matter-of-fact. After all, anyone with a brain could understand how sensitive this kind of information was. “You can use supernatural power as bait to lure her into studying!” Chu Zhu made a decision, then said with a slight headache, “Finally, I’ll give a comprehensive plan regarding the industrial issues of Company C!”

Lin Xia subconsciously looked at Zhao Shao, after all, he had been either cultivating or running programs outside during this period, and had no time to deal with this kind of matter.

Zhao Shao carefully said, "Company C's production line has officially started production! The publicly announced capacity is three ultra-large capacity tank batteries per day... or rather, automotive batteries! It can also assemble seventeen war-type drones per day—this is several to dozens of times the production efficiency of similar manufacturers of the same type and scale!"

"What's the actual situation?" Chu Zhu's gaze sharpened. This so-called public announcement was naturally not for the general public... but for the official bodies he was dealing with!
"Let's double it!"

It had already increased so many times, and now it's going to double again?
Chu Zhu silently marveled at the terrifying power of semi-artificial intelligence in production. It not only maximized existing productivity but, more importantly, enabled continuous production 24/7. Especially Z... she could even purchase production equipment and enhance herself with Chu Zhu's permission!
Or rather, self-improvement is a typical characteristic of artificial intelligence...

The only difference between Z and true artificial intelligence is that, after she has thought about and made a decision, she needs Chu Zhu's authorization to actually implement it.

Of course, Z has not yet entered the cycle of self-improvement.

The fundamental reason why Chu Zhu did not agree was that the military was supervising production! After all, the military is currently C Company's only major client.

Even though Chu Zhu has already laid down the cooperation with the authorities, Z... is still too sensitive!

Although according to future information, if Chu Zhu were willing to share Z's "custody" with the authorities, there wouldn't be any problem even if it were made public... Unfortunately, putting aside Chu Zhu's personal wishes, just considering the present, Z's personality has already taken shape after gaining future memories, and it's too late to separate him now.

As things stand, although the other side has realized the existence of Z... they still don't understand just how terrifying Z truly is... Chu Zhu and the other side tacitly agree not to mention it—maintaining this state is better!

"Hmm, but it seems we still need to get Z a new 'nest' outside!" Chu Zhu gradually made up his mind. He calculated for a moment, then let out a long sigh: "I see! I should have quite a bit on hand now... Hmm, Zhao Shao, here's a phone number for you..."

Chu Zhu gave Sun Rui's phone number to Zhao Shao: "You should contact him and either get some weapons that can be used with the war drones from him, or get the weapons production license from him."

Zhao Shao's face twitched slightly. He looked at Chu Zhu hesitantly, then finally nodded.

"Everyone!" Chu Zhu slowly stood up, looked at the three people present, and all his words were finally reduced to one sentence: "You must try your best to survive."

……

Chu Zhu left the conference room and heard hurried footsteps. She raised an eyebrow, turned around, and saw Lin Xia: "Is there something you need to talk to me about privately?"

"No...it's just that Miss Su and I were in contact, and she said that the prototype of the virtual reality headset has been completed!" Lin Xia scratched his head.

Chu Zhu's expression immediately turned strange. Wait, hadn't she just met Su Mobai a few hours ago? Why didn't she mention it then? Had she forgotten… or was she only just doing it now? Why wasn't she contacting him… surely she wasn't afraid of him? Hmm?!

Chu Zhu reflected on her previous actions in front of Su Mobai and fell into deep thought. She had only manipulated the Life Ladder; although the scene was indeed somewhat… but was it really necessary?
"Let's go take a look together then." Chu Zhu made the decision and nodded to Lin Xia.
