Crunch.
With a mechanical grinding sound, an elevator door slowly opened. Tommy took out a cigarette and lit it. Flo beside him looked solemn.
"What's wrong? Minister Flo, what are you nervous about?"
Flo smiled awkwardly.
"This is the first time I know of such a method. I didn't expect something like mimicry to be so powerful."
Just now, Flo followed Tommy in the upper laboratory and witnessed how the crystal stones transported from the center of the distant ocean underwent several reduction reactions and turned into what Tommy called mimics.
Flo was extremely surprised by such a miraculous substance, because this was the research they had stopped for more than half a century. Because the research costs and risks were too high, the research on these high-energy substances had come to a standstill.
Another point is that the research has no direction, and with the clean and efficient energy produced by Steka, this research on crystal energy has almost ended.
Although Flo was very happy, he was even more afraid. This factory used to be a manufacturing workshop. The Science Department added some machinery at Tommy's request and gradually transformed it into a fully automated research factory.
Although Tommy now allows Flo to come in, Flo is worried about his future safety after knowing such technology and secrets.
Steka has now begun to gradually integrate into human society, and many high-level officials also understand why those high-level human beings died inexplicably in the past, because the powerful Steka can do too many things.
But now it's too late. The power has been firmly held by Tommy alone. No one can resist Tommy, so knowing the secret is very dangerous.
Tommy took Flo to a laboratory and looked at everything in the laboratory. After a few glances, Flo understood what Tommy wanted to do.
As a leading scientist in the contemporary scientific community covering the three major fields of biochemistry and physics, Flo was actually excluded by the scientific community in the early years because science has been completely tied to money and power in the past, and Flo was obsessed with it.
research, resulting in complete isolation.
After Tommy solved most of the problems, he directly promoted Flo to the position of Minister of Science, responsible for everything, and gave Flo a considerable amount of funds, allowing him to freely study everything he wanted to study, and even let him
Flo can do whatever it takes.
This made Flo, who had been isolated for a long time, feel unprecedented warmth. However, after becoming the Minister of Science, Flo learned a lot and felt troubled.
It was not because Flo was not good at interacting with people in the past. Instead, Flo had many friends. But in the eyes of others, he was just a good old man and a madman who loved research.
The most important reason why Flo doesn't accept things other than science is that he knows very well that once he enters that circle, he is no longer a scientist, but a scumbag who uses his past scientific research achievements to deceive others.
It was the excitement in his heart that allowed Flo to stay away from all this and continue to calm down and study. Although various parties used funds to blackmail Flo, forcing him to publish some research results according to their requirements.
Luo relied on compromise methods to survive in the cracks these years.
Although he now has the favor of President Tommy and has gained everything, the longer he works, the more Flo feels that something is wrong. This president is quite paranoid in his pursuit of science and technology.
This kind of paranoia is paranoia about the future. Flo's philosophy has always been that technology is just a means to help mankind overcome difficulties, not a means for human survival.
But what Tommy is asking Flo now is to let technology determine everything about the future of mankind. This seems to Flo to be extremely unreliable.
"What do you think of the current crop of mimics?"
Flo looked at Tommy in confusion, but after thinking about it, he said.
"This kind of substance can make human life extremely convenient. I can list many ways that can make human life..."
Tommy shook his head, and Flo immediately stopped giving examples. He observed Tommy's every move, hoping to see the answer from Tommy's expression. Tommy suddenly laughed, and he shook his head.
"Minister Flo, you seem to be used to observing others before speaking, but what I want to hear is not a compliment, nor is it an idealized thing, but the first thing that came to your mind after you learned about this substance.
, please speak according to your heart, I don’t want you to please me, let alone speak to win my trust.”
The smile on Flo's face disappeared, he lowered his head, his expression became serious, and finally Flo said.
"If weapons are developed for mimics like this, I think the only way to maximize the value of this type of material is weapons."
Tommy clapped his hands.
"I think so too, Minister Flo, but before that I have a question. I need you to conquer a technology."
Flo nodded and bowed. He knew very well that the technique Tommy mentioned was definitely not simple.
"Currently, mimics can generate all substances through some set data templates, but that's not what I want."
"A weapon more powerful than a nuclear bomb?"
Tommy shook his head and said.
"I need these mimics to realize all human functional reactions, and even exceed these functional reactions."
Flo was stunned and asked.
"Wouldn't it be better to make a weapon?"
Tommy said.
"Please imagine, Minister Flo, what would you think if I had a group of soldiers that could be recycled and reused?"
Flo's eyes widened in shock, looking at Tommy in disbelief and said.
"Although it is possible to realize a part of the body with mobility similar to that of a robot, it is very difficult to be like a human being."
Tommy smiles at the end of the year.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "That's why I brought you here, Minister Flo. I hope you can realize the anthropomorphic technology I talked about and use mimics to build human-like body functions.
It can even go beyond that.”
Flo feels uncomfortable at this moment, because such technology will be difficult to achieve even in the next hundred years, let alone now. Even if the current AI has reached the level of anthropomorphism, this technology is to create new
Human beings, I am afraid that only the Creator can do such complicated things.
Tommy laughed, then shook his head.
"It seems you misunderstood what I meant. What I need is only human functions, not human thinking."
Flo became even more confused.
"Mr. President, you mean, only human limbs are needed?"
Tommy nodded.
"Then it's not difficult to do it. It just needs to be tested. But this body without any program control is just..."
"There's a lot you don't need to know."
Tommy's tone suddenly became tougher, and Flo nodded hurriedly.
"President Tommy, please tell me some specific architectural functions first. I will start the preliminary plan tonight."
Tommy nodded and then took Flo out of the laboratory, and then pointed to an ecological area in the distance inside a glass cover, with mountains and rivers, complete housing facilities, and even a small park. The area was very huge, just like a small
What the community looks like.
Tommy said with a smile.
"Wait until your plan is almost complete before you leave here. After all, I don't want you to be interfered with in any way. During this period, please carefully select your list of subordinates and build at least a team of 300 scientists.
, I can give you the highest degree of freedom. But you need to keep this work completely confidential. If anyone other than these 300 people knows about it..."
Flo looked at Tommy in horror, Tommy smiled and said.
"I was just kidding."
Flo laughed awkwardly. He knew that this matter was definitely not a joke. If 300 people want to conduct research in such a place, it must be long-term and they may not even be able to go out.
aspect is a huge consideration.
Flo suddenly had some thoughts about the personnel in his mind, and he nodded understandingly.
"I promise to complete the tasks you have given us, President."
Tommy nodded.
"I don't want to threaten you and ask you to produce it as soon as possible, but because this matter cannot be delayed, I will give you enough time without too many restrictions."
Flo nodded knowingly, and then Tommy asked.
"If you want to hand over the work of the Science Department outside after you start research, you can give me a list."
Flo hummed, then he asked.
"Mr. President, can I go back and say goodbye to my wife and daughter?"
Tommy shook his head.
"Either bring them in or get out of here when it's over."
Tommy knew very well that the newly appointed Minister of Science was a slippery man. If he could not be effectively restrained, he would definitely try his best to make things difficult in the end.
