In order to help the Secretary of Defense get out of the current predicament, Hunter could only risk a word.

"Mr. President, actually, we may still have a chance to save this matter."

This sentence attracted the attention of the Minister of Finance. He originally wanted to use this opportunity to oust the Minister of Defense from this position, because over the years, the Minister of Finance has indeed burned too much money, and it has not made any difference every time, so

He has long disliked the Minister of Defense.

"This is a high-level meeting of the Eagle Country. Although you are a senior R&D staff member of Deep Blue Company, I don't think you are qualified to speak." The Finance Minister said coldly.

But this sentence attracted the president's curiosity.

He asked: "If you have any ideas, you might as well tell us and let us listen."

At this time, the Secretary of Defense's eyes were immediately filled with hope. He hoped that Hunter's next words could save his life.

Hunter said: "I don't know if you have noticed that although Daxia has installed a laser emitting device on the deck of the aircraft carrier, they have not modified their power system."

Everyone looked puzzled, but at the same time they also realized that this was indeed a rather strange thing.

The president nodded and continued: "So why do you suspect this?"

Hunter continued: "Daxia's laser emission device is a mature technology. There is nothing wrong with adding this device to the spacecraft, but this does not comply with the order of transforming a spacecraft."

One of them immediately asked: "So you are saying that the transformation of a spacecraft should start with the power system?"

"Yes, that's right. If you want this behemoth to take off, the power system must be the top priority. To transform it, start with the power system first. This is common sense. So I think Daxia now has a super fuel such as purple elements.

, but they probably haven’t developed an engine that can use this fuel yet.”

At this time, the Minister of Defense also suddenly realized what Hunter wanted to say, and the decadent expression on his face disappeared at this time.

He glanced at Hunter with bright eyes, and then continued Hunter's words: "This may be an opportunity for us to obtain the purple element."

Hunter nodded when he heard this.

But everyone here was confused and didn't know what these two people were planning in their minds.

The Minister of Finance mocked: "Don't be kidding, the purple element is now like a national treasure to Daxia. How could they give it to us so easily."

"We can change it and use our engine technology to change it."

The words of the Minister of Defense caused a heated discussion among the people present.

Everyone was whispering to each other. Some people were nodding to express that this was an opportunity, while others were shaking their heads to express that this was simply impossible.

The president watched for a long time, but he didn't find that these people could be said to be ugly.

So he patted the table to silence everyone.

He asked the Minister of Defense: "Why can you guarantee that Daxia is willing to exchange with us."

The Minister of Defense said seriously: "Mr. President, I cannot guarantee 100%, but I know that our Eagle Country has the best engine technology in the world. Even if the Great Xia Kingdom has purple elements, it will be so difficult to modify their aircraft carriers."

This engine technology may take them several years to develop."

The Minister of Finance immediately denied: "Don't forget, Daxia has a genius like Lu Chuan. Who knows how soon they will be able to develop the required engine."

Hunter shook his head and expressed his disapproval of the Treasury Secretary's views.

"Mr. Minister, you may not know something. I also admit that Lu Chuan of Daxia Kingdom is a genius, but aviation engines cannot be developed by one person. The engines of our Yingjiang Kingdom are also the hard work of countless people over many years, so

I am very sure that even if Lu Chuan can develop the engine to bring the aircraft carrier to the sky, it will be a very long process."

Upon hearing Hunter's words, the Secretary of Defense immediately began to observe the expressions on the faces of the people around him.

He found that most people here seemed to agree with Hunter's idea.

So he struck while the iron was hot, although the president said: "Mr. President, I think this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We should immediately send people to Daxia to negotiate on this matter. If we can get the purple element, then we can immediately make our

Scientific researchers analyzed this element, and I think since even Daxia Country can produce this element, then we, the Eagle Sauce Country, must also be able to produce it."

Hunter echoed: "The reason why we can't synthesize purple elements now is because we don't even know the molecular structure of this element. If we can get a sample of purple elements, given the technological level of our Eagle Country,

, I believe it is very possible to mass-produce this element.”

Not only the president, but everyone here knows what purple element, a super fuel, means to a country, and of course they all dream of owning it.

But at the same time, they were also worried that this was a risky business.

The Minister of Finance, who considers everything in terms of money, was the first to reject the idea.

He said: "You have to know how much manpower and material resources it took to develop our engine technology. If this technology is handed over to Daxia so easily, then they will avoid many detours, and even if

We can get some purple elements, but what if we can’t mass produce them by then?”

The Minister of Defense was already like a gambler at this time. He couldn't care so much anymore because he didn't have much capital anymore and just wanted to get the purple element first.

So he kicked Hunter under the table to signal him to speak.

Of course Hunter knew that he was the only scientific researcher present, and he was the only one who could speak the most convincing words to the president.

But at the same time, he also knew in his heart that if he convinced the president at this time, then from now on, he and the Secretary of Defense would be grasshoppers on the same rope.

After struggling for many times, Hunter finally said to the president: "I want to believe that the scientific research strength of our country is far superior to that of Daxia. I also believe that the purple element they developed is just a coincidence. As long as we have samples of the purple element,

, then our Eagle Sauce Country will be able to continuously mass-produce this element."

Therefore, the president immediately agreed to their proposal and prepared to send people to Daxia for negotiations.
