DipNovel Chapter 5: The Unexpected Plan
Chapter 5: The Unexpected Plan
Unexpectedly, in less than two days, Yue Mingyuan, Zhou Mingde, and Li Mu went to Old Zhou's house to report to Guo Yi and the others: "Old Zhou, Old Guo, how much longer will it take for the project proposal to be finalized?"
"Did you believe me now that I said I'd get a reply soon and that I needed to work overtime to finish the project proposal?"
Guo Yi looked at the smug Old Zhou, shook his head helplessly, and then took out a document and handed it to Yue Mingyuan and the others: "Old Zhou and I have roughly listed the venues, departments, personnel and supplies needed. Take a look."
"Splash~"
As the occasional sound of paper rubbing against paper rang out, Yue Mingyuan and his colleagues gradually frowned.
Take the construction of aircraft carriers as an example. The construction of aircraft carriers is a "mega-systems project" that integrates a country's industrial strength, technological level and collaborative management capabilities.
The departments involved cover the entire chain from top-level planning to specific construction, from core technology research and development to supporting services, and the number of personnel required ranges from tens of thousands to more than 200,000.
其中，核心造船厂的直接施工人员占比约10%-20%，研发与管理团队占比约5%-10%，配套协作人员占比70%-85%。
Similarly, if building an aircraft carrier requires so many departments, personnel, and resources, then building a space battleship would definitely require more departments, personnel, and resources than building an aircraft carrier, and possibly many more, perhaps even more than needed.
If we add industrial upgrades, the manufacture of neutron jammers, and so on.
Forget about it, we can't afford it!
Therefore, Yue Mingyuan and his team came mainly to discuss with Guo Yi how to break down the plan, and did not consider submitting Guo Yi's plan directly.
However, after reading Guo Yi's plan, Yue Mingyuan and his team realized that the issue was no longer how to break down the plan, but whether Guo Yi was playing them for fools.
Because Guo Yi needs a terrifyingly small number of people: the R&D and management team needs more than 3,000 people, while the core construction team only needs more than 5,000 people.
With such a small workforce, they can't even build an aircraft carrier, let alone a space battleship!
Therefore, Yue Mingyuan and his team put down the document with grim expressions and confirmed with Guo Yi and the others, "Old Zhou, you must have made a mistake in writing down these personnel requirements?"
"That's right, we only need this many people."
Guo Yi replied affirmatively and laughed, "If I weren't worried about being too busy, and if I didn't need to consider the subsequent construction work, I would have cut the number of people in both teams in half."
Before Yue Mingyuan and the others could speak, Guo Yi explained: "The main force in manufacturing MS and space battleships is not humans, but all-purpose auxiliary machines and independent operating terminal AI: Hello!"
It can not only perform maintenance and repair work on mobile suits and spaceships, but also assist medical personnel in treating the wounded and providing medical care. Furthermore, it can serve as a co-pilot of a mobile suit to assist the mobile suit pilot in combat.
In addition, it possesses extremely strong interactive capabilities, enabling it to engage in relatively complex interactions with humans and even react to human emotions. Furthermore, it also exhibits some emotions of its own.
"..."
Yue Mingyuan and the others exchanged glances, then their eyes widened in astonishment as they exclaimed, "Powerful artificial intelligence?!"
"It can only be considered as barely touching the shadow of strong artificial intelligence, not true strong artificial intelligence."
Guo Yi shook his head and sighed, "True strong artificial intelligence cannot be written in code, but rather it is pseudo-strong artificial intelligence that evolves autonomously through continuous learning."
As for how long it will take for pseudo-strong artificial intelligence to evolve into strong artificial intelligence, ask God, don't ask me.
"Let me sort this out first..."
Yue Mingyuan rubbed his temples, gathered his thoughts, and then spoke: "Elder Guo, your plan is to first produce Haro, and then use Haro in conjunction with personnel to manufacture MS and space battleships!?"
"Um."
"How long will it take to manufacture a Haro?"
"Once we get to the venue and have the equipment and materials, I can easily make a few Harrows by hand, and then we can start snowballing."
"You've already finished writing the Harrow code!?"
Guo Yi's words made Yue Mingyuan jump to his feet, asking incredulously, "When was this written? Where is the code?"
"It's been five years since I was discharged from the hospital. You don't think I've been working with E-carbon steel for all five years, do you?"
Guo Yi shrugged and said casually, "During those five years, I did a lot of preparatory work. The second most important thing was to earn money to buy equipment and materials, and the last thing was to synthesize E-carbon steel."
As for the code, it's on the cloud server, of course.
Before Yue Mingyuan could speak, Guo Yi reassured him, "Don't be nervous, no one can find those codes."
Even if they discover it, they will only assume it is a redundant system file.
Furthermore, I have now downloaded all the code to Mr. Zhou's laptop and completely deleted it from the storage unit.
Despite what Guo Yi said, Li Mu still took out his phone and insisted, "Mr. Guo, which service provider and which cloud server did you upload it to? I'll send someone to move that server back right now."
"The server instance IDs of those major cloud service providers are..."
"..."
After Li Mu left and returned, he and his companions calmed down and then asked curiously, "Elder Guo, can we take a look at that Haro?"
"You can only look, don't touch me, or I'll make you pay."
While warning Yue Mingyuan and the others, Old Zhou took out his laptop as if it were a precious treasure, pointed the black screen at them, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Ling, say hello to those guys in front of you."
"Beep~"
As soon as Mr. Zhou finished speaking, the laptop fan started spinning at full capacity. Then, the screen lit up and a (o^^o) appeared: "Hello, my name is Xiaoling."
"Alright, Xiaoling, you should go and get some rest."
Before Yue Mingyuan and the others could speak, Old Zhou quickly said something, then reluctantly put away the computer, making Yue Mingyuan and the others both laugh and cry: "Old Zhou, why did you put it away so quickly?"
Old Zhou glared at her and said disdainfully, "I've already given you face by letting you take a look. You still want to talk to my Xiaoling? Go away."
"..."
Faced with the protective Old Zhou, Yue Mingyuan and the others could only smile wryly. Then, Yue Mingyuan picked up the documents with one hand and grabbed Zhou Mingde with the other, saying goodbye: "Old Guo, Old Zhou, I will report to the higher-ups immediately. Get ready, and I will inform you of the location of the venue as soon as possible."
"Zhou Pangzi, forget about that Harrow. You're coming back with me."
"..."
Li Mu glanced at Yue Mingyuan dragging the reluctant Zhou Mingde away, and then bid farewell to Guo Yi and the others, saying, "Elder Guo, Elder Zhou, I'm going to report now."
"Um."
