Citroën was founded in 1005.
When they were established, they were able to rise rapidly thanks to the funds secretly injected by the top and the continuous support of talents.
And they did not disappoint the expectations of the human leaders and developed a large number of advanced weapons for the human race.
It can be said that they are the first-tier weapons research institutions besides official laboratories and research bases.
Moreover, Citroën has an advantage that even official organizations cannot match.
Compared with those highly-regarded official research institutions, Citroën, as a private enterprise, is relatively low-key and inconspicuous.
This low-key attitude allowed them to hide in the dark and not attract too much attention and vigilance from outsiders.
It is precisely because of this that the Citroën company has been able to occupy Mao City safely for many years.
They have neither been invaded or suppressed by foreign races, nor have they been purged by the human race's top leaders.
However, this year, this "good luck" seems to have come to an end.
The long-silent sea tribe suddenly makes a comeback.
As a major coastal port, and the sea people had suffered a defeat in Mao City.
Mao City naturally became their primary target of attack.
Naturally, Citroën was unfortunately caught up in this storm and suffered a serious impact.
Faced with such a predicament, Citroën had no choice but to retreat.
It’s not that they can’t win, but that they can’t fight.
Most of the important information and some finished products of top secret and above weapons were still in the headquarters at that time.
If they act rashly, they will only expose all of the above things to the enemy.
To reduce their losses, they had to retreat.
As a last resort, Citroën's decision-makers launched the headquarters mothership, which had not yet been fully built.
The mothership transformation of the headquarters was originally an important strategic plan of theirs.
It was still in a semi-finished state at the time.
In order to ensure that the mother ship could set sail smoothly and escape from Mao City, Citroën had to make a difficult decision.
They abandoned the huge network of contacts accumulated over decades of business, as well as all the overweight machinery and production lines.
These are the results of their hard work over generations.
But at the critical moment of life and death, one can only give up with reluctance.
In this way, the Citroën company, with its incomplete body, traveled a long distance and moved to the capital with difficulty.
Fortunately, Citroën is not a private enterprise with no connection to the government.
In the past few days, the company has maintained certain contact and cooperation with the authorities.
Moreover, Citroën Company was already planning to build a new branch on the outskirts of Zi City.
Therefore, they will not be blackmailed by the local forces and some people in power in Zi City, and have the confidence to make a comeback.
With this, Citroën Company was successfully transplanted and stayed in the suburbs of Zi City.
By now, the company has recovered and started to continue supplying weapons and ammunition to the front line.
All the original production lines are back on track, and even two new workshops for producing ammunition have been added.
However, what the Citroën decision-makers, who were happy to get the company back on track, didn't know was that someone was already targeting them.
…
Inside the core area of Citroën's underground factory.
"Chief Engineer Xu, this is the progress report from the team responsible for aircraft carrier technology."
Xu Xing did not reply immediately, but continued to process the data at hand.
Only his increased writing speed could vaguely reveal that he heard his assistant's words.
The assistant beside him was not in a hurry either, just waiting quietly.
Once you start processing data, it is difficult to stop; otherwise, it is almost like starting over from the beginning.
So, as Xu Xing's assistant for many years, he was used to waiting.
After a moment, Xu Xing sorted out the data, put it aside, and then spoke.
"Give it to me."
Taking the document handed to him, Xu Xing began to read it carefully.
Aircraft carrier technology is actually just a general term, which is divided into many sub-projects.
Therefore, this report is only a rough summary of progress.
However, as the chief engineer of Citroën, such a report was enough for Xu Xing to know the general situation of these projects.
Generally speaking, it has been basically completed, but there are still many shortcomings in the details.
There is still a long way to go before it can actually go into the battlefield or even go into mass production.
After reading the last page, Xu Xing put down the report and lowered his eyes to ponder.
Rather than betting everything on one bet, he prefers to put his eggs in different baskets.
Moreover, not to mention that aircraft carrier technology cannot be relied upon in the short term.
It would be too one-sided to just develop this type of large warship. Citroën has made many outstanding technological innovations, so there is no need to allocate more funds to it.
Having made up his mind, Xu Xing turned his head and said to his secretary.
"The team responsible for aircraft carrier technology recommends maintaining the current funding level."
The secretary took note of it carefully and waited until Xu Xing finished speaking before answering.
"Director Li just asked me to consult you. A batch of final payments will be arriving soon. Should the funding for each research group be relaxed?"
"My suggestion is to stick to the old ways and save the extra funds for future use."
The assistant nodded and quickly wrote down what Xu Xing said.
After a second or two, Xu Xing continued speaking, thinking that his assistant had finished memorizing.
"In addition, our current production capacity is sufficient, and we recommend not expanding further before we train the next batch of qualified workers."
The previous moving experience also caused Citroën to lose a number of workers who were proficient in operating various machines.
