    Just after going to work the next day, Thomas broke into Li Zhuang's office and asked for a test.

    "Tom, there is nothing to say about your technical level. What I am worried about now is your management ability. You have to show your performance. How about you act as the director of the Intelligent Production Laboratory for three months and then determine whether you are qualified?"

    Li Zhuang is not worried about Thomas's technical level. People who can work well in cit and mit are monsters.  They often talked on the phone, and Thomas even went to K City several times before.  In name, he was going to see his friend Yamamoto, but after Yamamoto got married, things became a little different. This guy spent most of his time in K City in his office.

    "No problem, I agree with your arrangement, but you have to go to the airport with me first. I brought good things on the 747."

    Li Zhuang called Li Meng to arrange a vehicle to go to the airport, and then asked Thomas: "Tom, why do you want to come to Australia?"

    "That's it, it's very simple. I want to change my environment. Besides, Citi's automation level is not the best in the world. It's boring for me to stay there all the time. After thinking about it, it's easier to get along with you here."

    "That's all?" Li Zhuang found it difficult to understand.

    "Well, I didn't know how I became an agent back then. I couldn't stay near MIT anymore. People around me despised me. The only top colleagues I know are you, so I decided to come here. This is the real reason."  Thomas touched his shaved chin, feeling a little embarrassed.

    "Haha, you look much better after shaving off your beard. You look a bit like Johnny Depp." Li Zhuang stared at him and looked him up and down.

    "Don't mention Depp in the future. I hate him the most. He neurotically pretends to be cool all day long. Some people used to say that I look like Depp, but I scolded him back." Thomas suddenly became anxious.

    "Haha, okay, don't mention it." Li Zhuang agreed casually, but he was actually laughing in his heart.  At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Li Meng came in, "Zhuangtou, the car is ready, we can leave at any time."

    There were not many people on the road. This place was sparsely populated. Li Meng did not speed up the car and drove forward honestly according to the rules. Chen Xiaojun, who was sitting next to him, yawned.

    "Xiaojun, how is the improvement of that metal exoskeleton?" Chen Xiaojun, who has actual combat experience, is the main tester. Chen Cheng and Li Bing are not free. They are busy now.

    "It's okay. It's not as good as the previous ones, but it's better than the ones below. However, it will take a long time to develop a truly fully protective metal exoskeleton system."

    "Oh." Li Zhuang thought for a moment and decided to increase investment in the military industry group and establish a formal military industry research institute. As the research and development center of the military industry group, a small weapons research institute would seriously affect the future development of United Technologies Corporation.  .

    It didn¡¯t take long to arrive at the airport. The 747 was still parked there. Thomas took Li Zhuang into the cabin and chatted with the remaining crew members.

    "Help me open the warehouse. I'll take someone over to take a look." Thomas said.

    "Okay, wait a minute, Tom, you have to get the goods away as soon as possible. We have a mission and we can't stay here forever." The co-pilot didn't want to stay in this desolate place.

    "Take it away today, don't worry, I have to make arrangements." Thomas said as he led Li Zhuang and others inside.

    The maximum payload of this 747-400 is 65 tons. Li Zhuang felt that it could not carry much stuff. When he walked to the cabin, he saw that it was empty except for the machine tools covered by canvas.  He knew it was a machine tool at a glance, so he didn't have to guess too hard.

    "Why did you bring a machine tool here?" Li Zhuang asked Thomas in a low voice.

    "This is a high-end product. I got it with great difficulty. It has ultra-precision six-axis linkage." Tom Cat said mysteriously.

    "Oh." Li Zhuang was noncommittal, picked up the phone and called Tang Chenggong and asked him to bring someone to drag him over.

    "You are too risky. We are already studying this kind of thing. Besides, there are more ways to achieve ultra-precision." After exiting the hatch, Li Zhuang began to criticize Thomas.

    "Haha, I know that United Technologies is now at a high level. I made this thing and spent a lot of money. I didn't want to stay in Citiland, so I dragged it over. The real good stuff is in the USB flash drive I have." Thomas simply said  Say it straight.

    "Haha, I will ask someone to evaluate it, and this machine counts as your share." Li Zhuang promised readily. Thomas was overjoyed and began to flatter him, but his compliments were neither fish nor fowl, making the person being praised dumbfounded.

    The internal operation efficiency of United Technologies is not bad, and the evaluation results were available that afternoon.  The price of this machining center, which Thomas spent several years building, is $10 million.  The technical assessment scored very high, awarding half a billion dollars.  Thomas's information contains a lot of high-end goods from the Citizen's military. It seems that his work as an agent is not for nothing, and he is very professional in poaching people.

    "Do you want cash or buy shares in the factory?"??" Li Zhuang asked.

    "How much is my annual salary?" Thomas hesitated. He didn't know the actual internal income of United Technologies.

    "Housing and cars are all benefits. If you don't have high requirements for food and drink, the company canteen is free. If you become a laboratory director, you will get a 10% position bonus; if you are not qualified, you can be rated as a senior core employee based on your level.  , the base salary is US$400,000. Internal bonuses depend on department performance, and all-employee bonuses depend on company performance. That¡¯s all for the time being.¡±

    Thomas thought about it, and finally spread his hands and said, "I won't need so much money to invest in the stock."

    Li Zhuang smiled, just looking at Tom Cat¡¯s clothes and eating habits, you can tell that his annual expenses are not big, because he spends most of his time doing research.  In the past, the K-city company cafeteria was enough to send him away, let alone the company's current food level.

    The people Thomas brought over were given very high grades by the Ministry of Human Resources and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They have been hired this afternoon. Now there is a serious shortage of employees in various departments.

    The financial crisis is approaching step by step. The financial division, business department, and joint procurement center are working closely together, and there is no major trouble for the time being.

    Thomas is an outstanding talent. In addition to automation, he is also good at ultra-precision machining. He is better than Tang Chenggong and has good R&D management capabilities.  He used to be able to be wild and unrestrained, but now that he has arrived in Bandar Sunway, he is beginning to feel pressure.  There are many masters here, not to mention Li Zhuang, a guy he regards as his equal, so he doesn't dare to relax.  Under the operation of his monster brain, everything in the small place of the intelligent production laboratory is in order.

    Tom Cat came here sincerely. Li Zhuang can be sure that no one would be stupid enough to bring all his close relatives to the enemy's lair to serve as spies.  The two masters had in-depth communication, and high-quality new employees came in one after another to set up the entire framework.

    Recruitment by the Human Resources Department has been ongoing. Universities and well-known companies in Taiwan and Hong Kong are the first choices of Zhang Kai and Ouyang Tan.  The University of Hong Kong is Ouyang Tan's alma mater, and he has connections here.  In order to change their loneliness, the "Taiwan Gang" in the company racked their brains to help the human resources department recruit people from various universities and large companies.

    Australia has many well-known universities and research institutes.  Australia has become a country of intelligent brain production because of Li Zhuang. He is now Australia's largest computer and automation expert.  Since young Smith passed the test and joined the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, the number of researchers in this research institute has increased to nearly 3,000 in just one month, including many experienced automation and computer practitioners.

    At the end of June, the Equipment Services Group of United Technologies Corp. upgraded all its products and released ten new manufacturing expert systems and five intelligent stand-alone devices suitable for labor-intensive enterprises. It also lowered the prices of all products by 20%.  Usability, stability, longevity and accuracy are as good as ever.  This forced competitors to lower product prices in response to the oppressive attack by United Technologies Equipment Services Group, code-named wlfs.

    In June, the energy group, power group and materials group all released a large number of new products, reversing the unfavorable situation in one fell swoop.

    On July 1, United Technologies Corporation established the Military Industry Research Institute and the Military Industry Group, officially incorporating this sensitive area into the company's key development direction.

    The Military Industry Research Institute consists of the Light Weapons Research Institute, the Heavy Weapons Research Institute, the Armor Research Institute, the Missile Research Institute, the Military Aircraft Research Institute, the Ship Research Institute, the Military Communications System Research Institute, the New Technology Weapons Research Institute, the Logistics Research Institute and the Theoretical Research Institute.  There are ten subsystems, and the long-term goal is to establish a laboratory for each research field.  The internal code name of the Military Industrial Research Institute is msri, and the corresponding code name of the military industrial group is wlms.

    The Military Industrial Research Institute was established quietly. It was an internal organization and did not require approval. However, the establishment of the Military Industrial Group took a long time.  Arms are a regulated field, not a civilian product, and politicians and the military have different ideas.

    The reason why this group can officially debut is quite complex. The efforts of the Australian military have made this a reality.  United Technologies' strength in the field of laser weapons has shocked Canberra. The sudden appearance of metal exoskeleton systems and future combat robots has made the military even more coveted.

    The Australian military sent people to participate in the founding ceremony of the military-industrial group, and officially issued a development order for metal exoskeletons and combat robots to United Technologies Corporation. Regarding laser weapons, they made indirect inquiries for a long time.

    In the evening, the senior executives discussed countermeasures together. In fact, most of the senior executives in the laser field did not know why the company's products could surpass the military of major countries.

    "Daniel, I'm a little curious. Although we have a lot of researchers in the laser field, we can't make practical weapons that are better than those of major countries, right?" Da Mian asked.

    "Haha, we are standing on the shoulders of giants, and we don't even let go of the strengths of dwarfs." Li Zhuang saidHee hee, Ren Mingmei looked down on him and picked up the topic.

    "As far as I know, this guy has more good things than that. In fact, the information he brought me was surprising. I don't even know where he got so many top-secret items."

    All the senior officials were speechless. This guy¡¯s skill as a technical thief was not average, but very high.  Ordinary researchers do not have access to high-end things, but the laboratory director can get first-hand information from Li Zhuang and guide the researchers to upgrade without any detours in the process.  Ren Mingmei has a reputation as a "laser weapon expert", but she is the only one who knows that this is not what she is good at.

    Li Zhuang was the instigator, so he naturally knew what was going on.  He used a large speaker to improve A007 to the limit, and set detailed collection goals determined by Ren Mingmei.  The experts took action, and it was indeed extraordinary. They even described in detail some research fields that ordinary people did not seem to have anything to do with lasers.

    Li Zhuang¡¯s sense of crisis made him very enthusiastic about weapons. Big Speaker and Five Speakers collected all the laser-related information they could find, even the creativity in some home computers.  People are always tired and careless. The top-secret research institute generally does not have access to the Internet, but occasionally it needs to send and receive data.  The speaker family seized the opportunity and published some information on the core research and development results of many major countries.  After the emergence of foreign intelligence brains, the data collection operation was stopped, but the data collected has reached tens of thousands of tons.  Each country has its own expertise in laser weapon research, but United Technologies combines these expertise to a higher level than any individual country.

    Among the dozens of expert systems at United Technologies, the most powerful ones are the data thief expert system and the shady fund collection expert system.  The former Li Zhuang has been continuously improving for more than four years, while the latter has been in a state of upgrading. After Vicki took over, she pushed Li Zhuang's design concept to the limit.  Experts in the financial division regularly send the latest research materials to Li Zhuang's mailbox, and Vicky can exploit all loopholes in the existing financial system.

    It makes sense that the Tokyo Agreement stipulates that intelligence computers above Class B are not allowed to access the Internet.  As long as this kind of intelligent life that never tires is assisted by powerful enough software, it is impossible for people to prevent their peeping, unless the intelligence is popularized, but this will take time.

    It is estimated that it is difficult for ordinary people to know that before IBM¡¯s intelligent brain appeared, there was a storm on the Internet, and even the military of various countries may not know about it.  Citi's military triumphantly conducted a new laser anti-missile test last month, boasting that it was a milestone.

    "Oh, you're in a daze again." Guobao couldn't help but poked Li Zhuang, who was deep in thought.

    "Haha, I'm not in a daze, I'm thinking about the problem. It's a good thing that WLMs can pass. We are temporarily holding back on the laser aspect. We will first complete the military's metal exoskeleton development project and combat robot project, and other research institutes will cooperate. That's it, we will start manufacturing tomorrow.  Construction robots.¡±

    ¡°You¡¯re not going to talk about the details, we¡¯re all interested in knowing.¡± McCauley said.

    "Keep it secret. I'll tell you after the declassification period. I have to go home. Goodbye!" After Li Zhuang said that, he started to walk out, using the best of the thirty-six strategies.

    "How many years is the decryption period?" Da Mian asked.

    Someone's proud laughter came from the corridor, "Wait until I die."

    "Forget it, ignore him, let's discuss the construction arrangements. This is the first time in history that intelligent construction has been carried out, and many media will come to join in the fun. Let's discuss it first." Zhou Qisen said.

    Everyone is a little fascinated. This is an unprecedented event, although it seems ordinary.
