Chapter 673 My Lord, Times Have Changed!
Swish.
The closed office door in front of him suddenly opened, revealing the bizarre world inside - azure holographic projections filled with various data filled the entire office.
In the center of the huge holographic projections, a small figure sat on his chair with his head buried.
It can be seen from the movements of the figure that he seems to be performing some important calculation work.ωωw.
"Academician Wang, take a seat."
A familiar voice came from the front.
"Hey!" Wang Man responded quickly and carefully squeezed into this world full of formulas and data.
Even though he was extremely careful, he still inevitably came into contact with the light of the holographic projection, causing ripples to appear on its surface.
"Wait for me for a while and let me finish the work at hand." Lu Yongchang said softly.
Wang Man felt the long-lost gravity and nodded silently.
A robotic arm robot fetched a cup of hot tea with ease and placed it gently on the coffee table in front of him.
Looking at the mist rising above the tea, and then turning to look at the endless starry sky outside the porthole, Wang Man subconsciously sighed deeply.
"What? Are you discouraged?"
As a familiar joking voice sounded, a figure blocked the light of the holographic projection and stood in front of him.
"Lu, Professor Lu...I..."
Wang Man stood up awkwardly, rubbed his hands, and whispered with embarrassment: "Professor, I have failed to live up to your expectations."
The corners of Lu Yongchang's mouth raised slightly, with a faint smile, and he waved his hand nonchalantly.
"What are you talking about?"
"This is not your fault."
"The megastructure project and the starship replacement project are being carried out at the same time, which really tests the fleet's material reserves."
Wang Man looked slightly moved when he heard this: "Professor, what do you mean..."
"Stop one of the projects first?"
Lu Yongchang glanced at Wang Man with a half-smile: "Pause? Why pause?"
"Since mining technology can no longer keep up with the rate of resource consumption, then we will develop new mining technology!"
While speaking, Lu Yongchang raised his hand and made a gesture.
The dense holographic projections in the office are like spring snow under the sun, instantly turning into light particles and dissolving into the air.
Only a blank holographic projection was left floating quietly beside the two of them.
"Professor?" Wang Man looked at Lu Yongchang in front of him with some confusion, "New mining technology?"
"Planetary exploration and mining have developed to this point, and it can be said that it has reached its extreme."
"Nano robots are paired with large-scale mining machinery, and the efficiency of mineral mining has been extremely exaggerated."
"I really can't imagine any other way to greatly improve the efficiency of mining." As he said this, Wang Man frowned and shook his head.
"Open your mind a little more." Lu Yongchang smiled and raised his hand to operate the holographic projection.
A familiar planetary image appeared in front of the two of them.
"This is... Kepler 452c?" Wang Man, who is engaged in planetary resource mining, recognized the planet immediately.
"right."
Lu Yongchang's eyes flashed with a faint light, and he said in a deep voice: "According to exploration, this is an iron planet."
"It contains a huge amount of basic metals and rare metals inside."
"If it can be mined completely in a short period of time, the fleet's resource shortage problem will be greatly alleviated."
"Professor, I understand everything you said." Wang Man responded in a low voice, "Currently, the focus of mining work is on this planet, but..."
"Too slow!" Lu Yongchang directly interrupted Wang Man's words.
"Open your mind!"
Lu Yongchang emphasized again.
Wang Man frowned and thought carefully.
After a few minutes, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Professor, you'd better say it clearly."
"I... really don't understand what you mean."
Lu Yongchang glared at Wang Man angrily: "You...you should be smarter!"
"Mining, why do we need to dig and mine little by little on the planet?"
“Why does your next excavator need to be an excavator?”
Wang Man: "???"
Is this...a human language?
"This... is not mined on the planet, where else can it be mined?"
"In space?" Wang Man asked half-jokingly.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yongchang actually nodded in agreement: "Academician Wang, you have finally figured it out!"
Wang Man:???
Who am I, where am I, what have I done?
At this time, Wang Man's main character is a confused person.
"Think about it, how tiring it is to mine on a planet, digging, mining, transporting..."
Lu Yongchang's voice was like a devil's whisper, slowly lingering in his ears.
"Even with nanorobots and giant mining machinery, these steps are very time-consuming and laborious."
"I came up with a simple and crude plan."
"How about we just blow up the planet and skip the tedious steps of excavation, mining and transportation!"
Wang Man: “…???”
He couldn't believe his ears for a moment.
What is this?
If you can’t solve the difficulty, then solve the source of the difficulty?!
"What do you think of my plan?" Lu Yongchang's devilish whisper continued, "Think about it, if the entire iron planet is turned into large or small fragments, we can even directly use ship-based laser cannons to attack it.
How efficient it would be to carry out the smelting step in space!"
Wang Man swallowed hard, his emotions a little incoherent: "Teach, professor..."
"Huh?" Lu Yongchang glanced at Wang Man.
"I think... your plan is very feasible, and I think so too!" Wang Man said with emotion in his eyes!
He briefly imagined the scene described by Lu Yongchang, and was so excited that he wanted to raise his arms and shout on the spot!
Sir, times have changed!
Who would be a serious person to use mining equipment to mine?
…
Lu Yongchang expressed great satisfaction with Wang Man's reply.
So, he briefly introduced this extremely explosive mining plan to Wang Man.
First, use high-energy laser weapons and anti-matter bombs to completely detonate the iron planet.
Then, in order to prevent planetary debris from flying around and disturbing the movement of other celestial bodies in the star system, a large number of gravitational shield generating devices are used to generate a reverse gravitational shield to "trap" these debris within a fixed range.
After simple sorting, reverse gravity shields and high-energy laser beams are directly used to carry out melting and smelting work in space.
As a result, not only the mining efficiency has been greatly increased, but the smelting efficiency has also been greatly improved.
