Chapter 72 Sleepless Night
"This is the workshop that produces the latest MA-M21G beam rifles."

He Kui brought many students to the workshop.

This workshop is certainly not the entire production line, it is just set up as a trial production point.

The production capacity is not large, but it can be used to cope with the situation before the factories in other urban areas of May City are completed.

Many students were curious and looked down at the entire well-organized semi-automated factory from the second floor through the tempered glass.

However, some people refused to do so, saying that they were not here to visit.

"Director He, do you know who is primarily responsible for the development of miniaturized beam weapons?"

"This is a military secret and concerns ZAFT's national policy, so I'm sorry I can't answer it."

He Kui replied in an official tone with a smile.

"But as far as I know, Director He was only assisting in the miniaturization of beam weapons. Does that mean that your current position is only temporary, and you will step down as soon as someone with greater achievements in beam weapons arrives?"

These words were tantamount to telling him directly that he could not sit in this position without good grades, and that this position was only held temporarily for someone else.

In the final analysis, considering He Kui's resume, not many people except the director level believed that it was He Kui who developed the miniaturized beam weapon.

He Kui himself did not explain, which also seemed to send a signal to many people.

That is, He Kui was not the inventor of the miniaturization of beam weapons at all, so he is so low-key.

"Regarding the position of the director of the beam weapon miniaturization research group, it was decided within the design bureau, and the person with the most ability will be appointed."

"Then the students also have some small insights into the use of beam weapons."

As the young man spoke, he took a step forward and handed a book of information to He Kui.

"You said you want to improve the focusing method of beam weapons to achieve a range killing effect. This idea is very interesting, but if we simulate the result according to your principle, it will only attack itself in the opposite direction because we cannot control the focusing direction."

"No way! Just do it my way."

The other party seemed determined to get the position of director and was still trying hard to sell it to him.

If his theory was correct, he would certainly say a few words to appease others.

The problem is that the other party's theory is just superficial.

“I remember your paper.”

He Kui smiled and said that he was very attentive to the progress of other people's research. Of course, most of them were just like the document in front of him, flashy and superficial. Some of them didn't even understand the basic structure of beam weapons.

It's pure scam. It's impossible to take him down with this level of skill.

"Your theory was published in an external forum under your own name. Not to mention that you only speculated on the internal structure of the beam weapon based on your own conjecture, first of all, you were unable to produce even the most basic data. It was just a flashy article."

After He Kui finished speaking, he ignored the man's still unconvinced look and clapped his hands.

"Then if there are no further questions, we will disband today."

"Director He."

As soon as he finished speaking, another young man raised his hand.

"You said."

"There is still room for further improvement in the transformation of light beams, if it is done through more detailed energy sources, for example."

"Yes, but it usually requires a larger volume and more sophisticated technology."

Hearing the other party's sharp words, He Kui's expression became more serious.

An expert can tell whether something is possible at a glance. Unlike the previous mascot, the boy in front of him is no worse than the researchers in his group in the research of beam weapons.

Not too old either.

"so."

The young man just lowered his head and took notes, and He Kui passed the blame to the entourage who followed behind him, and ran to the production room located in the underground secret factory.

"You're here so soon?"

"The genius is so terrifying, come here to check the progress."

Look at these adjuster geniuses. They may surpass him at any minute. He is simply wasting his time by taking them shopping outside.

"how's it going?"

"The casting has been completed by 73%. The close-fitting structure arrangement theory you provided is very successful. At present, the absorption layer structure and the dispersion layer have gradually fitted together!"

The stuffy and sour air in the forge did not dampen Shihe's excitement at all.

The original anti-beam coating only has one absorption layer.

If the shield exceeds the absorption limit, it will crack or even be damaged.

He Kui then made a dispersion layer on the arranged structure, similar to the heat dissipation mode of the Archangel's laminated armor.

Through the sophisticated structure, the heat is evenly dispersed throughout the shield, and then the anti-beam coating of the entire shield evenly absorbs the energy of the beam.

In this way, the shield's durability and strength are taken to a new level.

"We'll have to test it out to find out. How is the preparation of the test site going?"

"No problem, we can test it directly after forging is completed."

"it is good."

The two sat down in front of the main computer in the forging room.

He Kui himself also took over part of the work, controlling the nano-robotic arm above the furnace in front to start overlapping the fine structures.

"Come to think of it, Director He seems to have become better at micromanipulation than before."

With He Kui joining, the others had some time to chat.

"Yeah, the forging speed is actually faster than the three of us."

"It's much better than the last time I made the beam gun. It's really a feast for the eyes."

"You guys! Stop chatting and start working."

Shihe said unhappily.

"Otherwise, if I fail to make it in time for the test, I will hold you responsible!"

"it is good!"

After everyone saluted politely, they operated the robotic arm with equal seriousness.

Before long, a steaming anti-beam shield was ready.

The color has not been painted, it is just ordinary black, and the angular appearance does not seem to be much different from an ordinary shield.

“Next comes the beam irradiation test, thermal cycle test, mechanical strength test, and finally the actual test.”

After setting up the shield in the test field, Shihe took out a long evaluation list and said.

After all this, this anti-beam shield that just left the factory has become scrap metal.

However, they must test the limits of the shield before they can complete the task.

Even every test is to test the extreme performance, which means that a shield will be scrapped for every test.

Although funds were insufficient, He Kui also had his own solution, which was to repair the original shield before moving on to the next step.

In short, as long as his theory is not wrong, the structure of the shield does not need to be changed or remade.

The structure of the anti-beam shield itself is still there in the beam, but the coating will be gradually dissolved by the beam. As long as there are materials, repairing it is much cheaper than making a new one.

This way, the time spent is shortened and the funding can barely be maintained within 100 million.

He has saved so much, it would be unreasonable if the National Defense Committee did not give him an award.

"Let's start quickly."

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
