Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 211 Outwitting the Air! (First Update!) Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!
Liang Xinghua's frantic actions and loud roars startled the people around him.

After a short while, several people stepped forward and hurriedly pulled him away from Lin Yi.

Lu Ming stood between the two, pushing Liang Xinghua with both hands to signal him to calm down.

Blocked by several people, Liang Xinghua stood with his hands on his hips, spinning around in circles while breathing heavily, forcing himself to calm down.

But after spinning around twice, he waved his hands and roared once more:

"I can't stay calm!"

After his roar, two burly men blocked his way from the left and right, pressing down on his shoulders: "Professor Liang, we can talk things out properly, there's no need to shout like that."

"Everything that is happening now will be recorded in detail when we go back and hand over the mission."

"By then, you'll probably be in a difficult position if you don't submit a 10-word report."

The moment the words "10-word report" were uttered, Liang Xinghua was rendered speechless, like a chicken with its neck choked.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Zhenbang couldn't help but gasp and take two steps back.

When he came to his senses, he realized that Jiang Zhiyu had retreated even further than him.

The two looked at each other, both seeing lingering fear in each other's eyes.

A 10-word report.

This is utter nonsense.

Everyone has to be written to death.

Under the pressure of the report about the nuclear bomb, the room finally quieted down. After a few seconds, Liang Xinghua raised his hand and pointed at Lin Yi:
"You said that your battery material can store 2.6 kilowatt-hours of electricity per kilogram."

Have you ever conducted an explosion test?

After asking the question, he turned back to look at Zhong Zhenbang:

"I can roughly guess why the UAE has included them in its arms factories!"

After saying this, his gaze fell on Lin Yi, and with his words, everyone else also turned their attention to Lin Yi.

After watching for a while, Lu Ming tilted his head and asked:

"Professor Liang, why?"

Lu Ming's words immediately drew everyone's attention to Liang Xinghua. Feeling their gazes, Liang Xinghua closed his eyes and explained:

"Generally speaking, explosions are divided into chemical explosions and physical explosions."

"We make weapons using chemical explosions."

"When we look at chemical explosions at the microscopic level, it means actively breaking apart the unstable bonded structures of molecules."

"This releases a large amount of energy."

"The energy storage principle of electromagnetic materials is basically an electrochemical oxidation-reduction reaction."

"The key lies in the electron transfer and ion migration of the active substances in the electrode material."

"In short, during the charging and discharging process, the electrons in the molecular structure of the electrode material will change."

"During this process, the molecular structure of the electrode material becomes unstable."

"If the battery material that Mr. Lin mentioned can really achieve an energy density of 2.6 kWh/kg, then the molecular structure of this material will result in even more frantic and intense electron conversion between the positive and negative electrodes during the charging and discharging process."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to hold that much electrical energy!"

"At this point, if you were to insert a detonator into these electrode materials, it would be a super bomb."

"It only takes a moment!"

"boom!"

At the end, Liang Xinghua spread his arms, tilted his head back, and made a gesture as if an explosion was about to occur. He also thoughtfully added sound effects while making the gesture.

After finishing the voiceover, perhaps worried that those around him might not understand, he casually tossed his hair, crossed his arms, and continued:

"If we had to find an analogy, it would be the basic nuclear bomb configuration."

"Ordinary atomic bombs require the use of specific, specially configured high-performance explosives as fuses. Under a specific configuration, all the pressure of the explosion is forced into the core of the nuclear bomb, and then the nuclear bomb is detonated."

"Similarly, the hydrogen bomb operates on the same principle."

"If, if this can really store 2.6 kilowatt-hours of electricity, as long as there is enough, it could be used to build a hydrogen bomb."

Nuclear bomb.

hydrogen bomb.

These are two words that send chills down your spine just by hearing them.

In that instant, the two burly men who had appeared very assertive couldn't help but distance themselves from Lin Yi. Although they did, their eyes remained fixed on Lin Yi.

His gaze was filled with curiosity, and at the same time, a little bit of excitement.

Of course, Liang Xinghua was the most excited.

As for Lu Ming, his expression showed more worry than curiosity.

Unlike the other four, Zhong Zhenbang felt his head was throbbing. If he felt his head was throbbing just now, it was now as big as a bucket.

He even felt like he was carrying an extra burden, a very, very black burden.

Standing at the center of the vortex, Lin Yi appeared remarkably calm and composed.

No matter how much Liang Xinghua says, he has no actual data to support it, that is, no evidence.

Without evidence, it's all nonsense.

He picked his nose, then crossed his arms and asked Liang Xinghua:

"Professor Liang, we are all researchers, and we must rely on evidence when we speak and act."

“You’re right. Under certain conditions, all electrode materials can be used as explosives.”

"Besides electrode materials, we can also use flour, magnesium powder, aluminum powder, and other reactive metal powders as explosives."

"If you don't have evidence, you're just playing mind games with thin air!"

These words dampened the excitement on Liang Xinghua's face and also dampened the enthusiasm in the hearts of Liang Zhenbang and the others.

Lin Yi is right. Under certain conditions, all the things he just mentioned can be considered military supplies.

Then it was used to make explosives.

Faced with these questions, Liang Xinghua opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't utter a single word.

Finally, he shrugged and tried to smooth things over:

"This is just my guess; we'll have to see for ourselves, Director Zhong."

He kicked the ball back at Zhong Zhenbang, who was now numb.

What does this have to do with me!

All he wanted to do now was sew those people's mouths shut and beg them to stop talking.

If I continue, this incident report will easily exceed 20 words. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of words in the report, I will also have to face censorship.

The kind of scrutiny that examines every single detail, from head to toe, down to every pore and every single hair.

The atmosphere in the room became somewhat stiff and awkward at that moment.

As the host, Lin Yi organized his thoughts and turned to invite Zhong Zhenbang and the other man:

"Since you two have come here to investigate us, in order to prove our innocence, I would like to invite you to visit our workshop."

"Go to the workshop and take a look. After you see it, the two of you should be able to clear our names."

Zhong Zhenbang did not want to go.

But then I thought, since I'm already here, and I have to write the report anyway, I might as well go and take a look, and maybe I can write a few more words.

He sighed, walked to Lin Yi's side, and pointed towards the door:
"Please lead the way, Mr. Lin." After speaking to Lin Yi, he turned to look at the two burly men:

"Gentlemen, would you like to come with us, or would you like to go back first?"

The two burly men looked at each other, and finally the one on the left nodded and said, "Let's go together."

"Since I have to write a report anyway, I might as well write this clearly so that I won't feel so bad."

So, led by Lin Yi, a group of people walked out of the office and went downstairs.

At the entrance of the office building, a group of people from Xiaomi Heavy Industry stood there. When they saw Lin Yi come out, they instinctively wanted to surround him, but when they saw the people next to Lin Yi, they all stopped in their tracks.

At the front of the crowd, two policemen walked over, their gazes first sweeping over Lin Yi and finally landing on Zhong Zhenbang.

Zhong Zhenbang noticed the meaning behind the two men's glances, nodded, and then pointed to the factory not far away:
"Let's take a walk around the factory."

Upon hearing this, the two policemen quickly turned around and said, "Everyone, go back to work. Your boss is taking people to tour the factory."

"You don't want your boss to dock your wages, do you?"

The crowd did not disperse because of his two sentences, but continued to look at Lin Yi.

Noticing the gazes, Lin Yi waved his hand: "Go to work, everyone."

As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd dispersed. Ji Shuangshuang stayed behind and did not go upstairs. Instead, she tiptoed over to the group with a smile on her face and stood behind Lin Yi.

When the others looked over, she grinned, her smile appearing completely harmless.

"Let's go!" Lin Yi tilted his head and led the group towards the electric fan workshop.

As soon as he entered the workshop, Zhong Zhenbang started rolling his eyes.

This really is a fan factory.

After leaving the electric fan workshop, the next stop is the rice cooker workshop, where they are indeed producing rice cookers.

Sighing, Zhong Zhenbang noted down the details and continued following behind Lin Yi as they walked toward the next workshop.

Hair dryer workshop...

They really do produce hair dryers.

After touring the three workshops, Lin Yi pointed to the other side of the wall:
"There's also a cable production workshop over there, let's go take a look!"

"After reading it, you'll be able to write a few more words in your report."

Driven by the report, a group of people, with long faces, followed closely behind Lin Yi into the cable production workshop.

As soon as you step into the workshop, a wave of heat hits you. In the heat, workers in protective suits move around on the production line, converting molten alloy materials into fine wires, and then using equipment to twist these wires into cables.

Zhong Zhenbang watched very carefully, but at the same time, he was also very annoyed.
We are being meticulous because we need to write reports and also confirm that the factory is not producing anything that is prohibited.

It's frustrating because Xiaomi Heavy Industry doesn't actually produce those things.

In other words, their busy work these past few days has been searching for enemies in the void.

It's a battle of wits with the air.

Thinking about this, Zhong Zhenbang couldn't help but want to punch himself twice.

After visiting the production line, the group went to the testing workshop at the back.

Inside the triangular track, the huge metal lump, under the control of the console, was pulled to its final position, then suddenly pulled out again, finally catching the cable.

again and again.

Every test is exhilarating, making you want to shout.

Amidst the noise, a discordant cell phone melody suddenly broke the silence.

The crowd turned around in the direction of the sound and discovered that it was Zhong Zhenbang's cell phone ringing.

Under the watchful eyes of a crowd, Zhong Zhenbang took out his phone, answered the call, and then pressed the speakerphone button.

The next second, the same voice I had heard just hours before came through the phone again:
"Old Zhong, the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs just exchanged information with the UAE, according to official UAE sources."

"The reason for including Xiaomi Heavy Industry on the list is because Xiaomi Heavy Industry produces a special electrode material."

"That material has the potential to change the world."

"They believe that Xiaomi Heavy Industry has the potential to become a large international enterprise."

"So we added them to the list."

"In fact, the Abu Dhabi International Defence Exhibition is not just a simple weapons exhibition. In addition to weapons, there are also some revolutionary technologies on display."

"That reason is also plausible."

Even with other equipment running around, the volume of the phone's speaker is loud enough to clearly convey what the person on the other end is saying to everyone present.

Upon hearing these words, the reactions of the people present varied.

Liang Xinghua looked embarrassed. If it was because of this reason, then his impassioned speech in the office just now seemed very awkward.

Lu Ming, standing beside Lin Yi, smiled, tilted his head, gave him a thumbs-up, and mouthed the following silently:

"come on!"

The two burly men who had been accompanying them secretly breathed a sigh of relief at that moment.

If that's the reason, then the subsequent report could be tens of thousands of words shorter.

Lin Yi, the person involved, twitched his face upon hearing this.

His intuition told him that this reason was barely acceptable, but it was definitely not the main reason.

There must be some despicable person plotting against me behind my back.

The Abu Dhabi International Defence Exhibition is indeed a comprehensive exhibition, but its exhibits have a certain degree of bias.

That's military-related.

Under these circumstances, it's impossible for me to be dragged into it.

There are still despicable people plotting against me.

As for the remaining Zhong Zhenbang and Jiang Zhiyu, their expressions were particularly interesting.

Their faces showed the helplessness of having chosen the wrong target, as well as the powerlessness of an 80-year-old man who had spent the whole day watering the land only to find that he had watered the wrong land.

Taking a deep breath and suppressing his anger, Zhong Zhenbang asked the person on the other end of the phone in a low voice:
"Then why was the list removed?"

As soon as I asked the question, the other side responded immediately: "Because they discovered that Xiaomi Heavy Industry has not yet launched the product they mentioned."

"Or rather, they don't want to launch that product for the time being."

"To avoid being disliked, they simply removed the list."

The person on the other end of the phone spoke softer and softer until finally, there was no sound at all.

Zhong Zhenbang, who was holding the phone, was getting redder and redder.

Just as he was about to unleash a torrent of abuse on the person on the other end of the phone, the other person spoke again:

"While you're at it, please check out what's going on with that so-called electrode material."

"If there are no problems, cancel this task."

These words made Zhong Zhenbang, who was holding the phone, completely lose his composure, and he burst out laughing.

After laughing, he launched into a tirade over the phone:
"So, these past few days we've actually been outsmarting the air, playing tricks on ourselves?"

"Is it right?"

"Next time your headquarters encounters something like this, could you just ask a couple of questions directly?"

"Ask clearly before you speak!"

"The way you're doing this makes us subordinates look like idiots!"
