Unparalleled True Technology

Vol 2 Chapter 566: Price of fortifying potions

The principle of a wooden barrel is very simple, although when the wooden barrel is tilted, it is the longest plank that determines the water storage capacity of the barrel, but who will be inclined to fill the barrel with water?

The principle of wooden barrels is very suitable for the military, and when the length of each wooden board in the army is increased, the combat effectiveness of the entire army will increase, and naturally it will not increase by one and one.

"What I want to know is, what is the cost of this research that you said applies to each individual?"

The Secretary of Defense who asked this question looked calm, but in fact he was very uneasy inside.

Although the display of Wen Ming's research results is not over yet, but he has seen Aaron Martin's combat effectiveness before, he naturally knows that this research result of Wen Ming has already been successful, so he is not worried that the display will fail.

In contrast to engulfing this weapon, which can be counted at no cost, the cost of strengthening the physical fitness of individual soldiers naturally needs to be considered.

Wen Ming laughed, as he told Donalds, this time he was going to be a liar.

Just like the scientists and military companies in the movies, in order to get orders from the US government or other national governments and supported research funding, they started flickering with an immature idea.

In the end, even if there are no research results, they are only cut off from the funding supply.

In the process of flickering, they themselves have gained a lot of benefits.

Therefore, he replied: "I call this research result 'reinforcement', and the medicament we injected into his body just now is a 'laboratory enhancement' to strengthen his physical fitness and enhance his talent level. Elixir '. "

When he heard of the laboratory model, the fire in the heart of the Secretary of Defense was extinguished by a basin of cold water.

Sure enough, he heard Wenming continue to say: "At present, the cost of manufacturing a fortified pharmaceutical is $ 10 million."

The expression of the Secretary of Defense directly solidified, and the expression of the Chief of Staff of the United States Army just asked also changed.

Ten million US dollars?

Even if the strengthening effect is as Wenming said, what's the point of making an ordinary soldier reach the level of the king of soldiers?

From the perspective of the Delta Special Forces, there are only more than 400 members. If you want to strengthen all of them, you need 4 billion US dollars for 400 people. This is a very small number of special forces. If it is to strengthen the SEAL with more than 1,600 people, it will need 16 billion US dollars.

The US government is indeed very rich. The annual military expenditure is also close to one trillion dollars. Can it spend 20 billion dollars to strengthen the Delta Special Forces and the SEALs?

In modern warfare, it is compared with high-tech weapons. Whose satellite positioning is more accurate? Whose missiles are faster, farther, and more powerful.

The combat of close combat is really less and less in modern warfare.

Therefore, the Chief of Staff of the Army said directly: "If this cost cannot be reduced, I don't think we need to continue wasting time here."

Such a direct statement did not change Wenming's expression. The other party was the Chief of Staff of the Army, who controlled hundreds of thousands of U.S. Army forces. His status was not inferior to that of Wenming. The supplier, the other party is the customer, naturally cannot be angry.

What's more, Wenming's real identity is a liar. How could Wenming get angry before she succeeded?

Being a liar also requires professionalism.

The Secretary of Defense also stated at this time: "Although our investment in individual soldiers is the highest in the world, a US $ 10 million investment alone, even if we agree, the White House will not agree, and the Senate cannot agree of."

Wen Ming laughed. He actually wanted to pull the company's combat troops over.

The training standards of his combat troops are based entirely on the Delta Special Forces, but in terms of staffing, they are configured according to the SEAL standard.

Although the total number is less than the 1,600 SEALs, there are only 1,100, but these people have all been physically strengthened. If at the price he said, then Wen Ming's investment in these people has exceeded 11 billion US dollars.

But is there really so much?

"If the cost really can't go down, I naturally can't let you generals who can represent the US military waste time here." Wen Ming's face is the expression of God, "The reason why the cost is so high at present One is that the raw materials we need are not only very scarce, but also very difficult to cultivate. In this regard, we have made preparations. I believe that in the near future, when we have more raw materials, the cost of monomers will increase. Decrease in magnitude. "

The Secretary of Defense wanted to ask what the material was. If Wenming didn't, they could help Wenming provide it, but he suddenly thought of Wenming's current wealth level and influence, and thought that the so-called raw materials are definitely Wenming's biggest secret. One, so he didn't ask.

But the Chief of Staff asked.

Wen Ming looked at the Chief of Staff with a smile and said, "The most important material needed to strengthen the medicament is not in nature, but we have cultivated it in the laboratory. You can understand it as, It ’s the same as the dinosaurs that I cultivated at the Jurassic Island Institute. Before the overall technology was developed, we could n’t naturally reduce the difficulty of cultivating, and the cost would not be reduced. ”

Seeing the Army Chief of Staff unbelieving, Wen Ming didn't explain much, and continued: "There is another reason why the cost is so high, because we don't fully decrypt the code of human genes."

"Simply put, improving the human body's natural talents depends on changes in human genes, just like those genetically modified crops. Through my Jurassic Island Institute, we have a lot in genetics Progress is needed to develop potentiating agents. However, our understanding is not enough to strengthen human beings in the simplest and most effective way. "

"For example, we do n’t have a supercomputer. We can only use a calculator to calculate a formula. The difficulty is naturally very high. When our technical level improves, we can have a supercomputer, which can calculate in a few seconds. It takes months or even years for a calculator to come up with a formula. "

"By that time, costs will naturally fall significantly."

Wen Ming paused, and after seeing the interest of everyone in the Ministry of Defense inspection team, he concluded: "According to our budget, the final cost may drop to about 500,000 US dollars. You think this price is acceptable ?"

The $ 500,000 is actually the money Wenming needs to make an ordinary fortifying potion now.

For those who do not know the truth, such as the Secretary of Defense, from $ 10 million to $ 500,000, although the overall cost is still high, it is not so easy to accept.

The Secretary of Defense has guessed Wenming's intentions ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ and simply asked: "Does the research on fortifying agents also need the help of our US military?"

Wen Ming snapped his fingers and said, "Well, although I believe the research capabilities of my team, but with the full support of the US military, I think these processes will accelerate a lot."

"Of course, as with the" swallowing "research, if the US military is willing to join, the final research results will be shared by both of us. At the same time, I will also announce on behalf of the umbrella company that the umbrella company will never be in the US military. If not allowed, sell the results to any country, private institution, or individual. "

The Secretary of Defense groaned. He was not reluctant to agree, because the benefits of such cooperation with the U.S. military were much greater than those that Wenming could get.

But he was very worried about how long it took Wenming to study successfully. If he had retired by then ...

Or, as he hoped, Wenming could help him get a longer term?

"We need to have a meeting to discuss it."
