Qixing Company is one of the three major mecha manufacturing giants in Ranxing. Before the competition to develop Yuanying-class mechas, these three companies kept each other in check, maintaining a delicate balance in the mecha manufacturing industry. However, all this was completely shattered after Qixing Company officially launched the Yuanying-class mecha development plan.
Their competitors, Qingyu Heavy Industry and Taicang Machinery, the leaders of these two companies received the information at the first time.
Qingyu Heavy Industry, the second-largest mecha manufacturer on Ranxing, was renowned for its super-heavy combat mechas and carrier-based mechas. Their clients spanned the entire star region, particularly the military and large security companies, where Qingyu Heavy Industry's products commanded nearly 30% of the market share. They were renowned for their sturdy defenses and terrifying firepower.
Qingyu Heavy Industry's headquarters is located in Ranxing's Sky City, a city comprised of sixteen massive mecha factories, operating day and night like a steel fortress. In the chairman's office on the top floor, a tall, middle-aged man stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the entire factory area, his brow furrowed.
Chairman of Qingyu Heavy Industry——Shen Qing
He was wearing a dark psychic alloy battle robe, and his broad shoulders seemed to carry the future of the entire company. At this moment, his face was extremely solemn.
"...Have you confirmed the news?" His voice was low and calm.
Secretary Lin Yi beside him reported in a low voice, "It has been confirmed that Qixing Company has launched a Nascent Soul-class mecha research and development project. Although it has not been announced to the public yet, multiple intelligence channels indicate that they have entered the core research and development stage."
Shen Qing sneered, "Huh, Qixing? They've been declining in the industry for the past few years. Now they're suddenly making such a big fuss. Are they sure they can do it?"
Lin Yi paused slightly, his expression a little complicated. "Chairman... if it was the previous Qixing, we could indeed ignore it, but... this time, their old chairman personally came forward, and they have even successfully developed an engine that surpasses the Jindan level."
Shen Qing frowned, a gloomy look flashing in his eyes: "Did they really do it so quickly?"
Lin Yi nodded. "Yes, according to reliable sources, their current research and development direction is a complete Nascent Soul-class mecha, rather than an ordinary Golden Core-class peak model. If they really succeed, our market share will be greatly threatened, especially for military customers..."
Shen Qing was silent for a moment, then, with a cold gaze, he slowly spoke, "Pass the order down and activate the 'Qingcang Project'. No matter what, we at Qingyu Heavy Industry must come up with our own Nascent Soul-class mecha plan. We can't let Qixing take over the market."
Lin Yi's expression was startled. "The Qingcang Project... that's a secret R&D project we've been putting on hold for a long time. We've invested a lot, but we've never made a breakthrough in the key technology."
Chen Qing narrowed his eyes. "If we don't do it, we'll be eliminated." He turned to look at Lin Yi, his gaze piercing. "Send an order to the research institute to fully initiate the development of the Nascent Soul-class mecha. Give them a month. I want to see results!"
"Yes!" Lin Yi nodded quickly and left quickly.
Shen Qing smiled coldly, looking at the brightly lit factory outside the window, thinking secretly in his heart - this competition has just begun.
Unlike Qingyu Heavy Industry, which mainly produces heavy mechas, Taicang Machinery is Ranxing's top high-end mecha manufacturer, specializing in the production of elite combat mechas. Their products are mostly used by sects, wealthy families and top combat monks.
Taicang Machinery's headquarters is located in Yuncang City, a technology city that looks like a floating fairy mountain. The entire company is located on a huge spiritual floating island, full of the fairy atmosphere of future technology.
In the top-level conference room of Taicang Machinery, a heated discussion is taking place.
The chairman of Taicang Machinery, Mu Changqing, was an old man with flowing white beard, sitting cross-legged on a floating chair. He was wearing a silver-white spiritual robe, and exuded the powerful aura of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator.
In front of him, the core R&D team of Taicang Machinery was reporting in a low voice: "Chairman, Qixing Company has officially launched the development of Yuanying-level mechas. Should we take action?"
Mu Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said calmly, "Qixing? They've been so quiet in recent years, how could they come up with something like this?"
A middle-aged engineer frowned and said, "We originally thought they had lost their competitiveness, but now it seems that they have not only achieved a breakthrough in the peak Jindan level mecha, but may even be attempting a true Yuanying level mecha."
"If they succeed, our high-end mecha market will be greatly impacted," added another female engineer.
Mu Changqing was silent for a moment, then he sighed slightly, his eyes becoming more profound: "It seems that the old fellow from Qixing has finally given up."
He slowly stood up and looked out the window at the psychic factory floating in the void. Then he gave the order in a deep voice: "From today on, Taicang Machinery will fully launch the 'Sky Star Project'."
"Sky Star Project?" Several engineers' expressions changed slightly.
"That's right." Mu Changqing's eyes were indifferent. "The mechas we manufacture at Taicang have always focused on 'ultimate combat power'. If Qixing wants to make a Nascent Soul-level mecha, we will make the strongest Nascent Soul-level mecha."
A technical director frowned and said, "But our engine technology is still limited. Currently, the energy conversion rate can only be maintained at the peak of the Golden Core stage. If we want to achieve the true Nascent Soul stage, we will need at least a stronger psychic core."
Mu Changqing raised his hand to interrupt their worries and said calmly, "Don't worry, I have contacted a guest elder. He has a psychic core plan from Yunxuan Star, which may be able to help us achieve a breakthrough."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this: "Yunxuanxing's psychic core?! It's said that their psychic network technology far surpasses ours. Is this plan...real?"
Mu Changqing smiled slightly, and a profound light flashed in his eyes.
"We'll know soon whether it's true or not."
Within just one day after Qixing Company officially announced its Nascent Soul-class mecha research and development plan, Qingyu Heavy Industry and Taicang Machinery Manufacturing responded quickly, and the research and development plans of the two major competitors were officially launched.
The undercurrent of the three major mecha giants is about to trigger an unprecedented storm in the entire world of immortal cultivation technology.
All forces, sects, military, and commercial consortiums are paying close attention to this change, waiting for the day when the true Nascent Soul-level mecha is born!
Behind all this, an ordinary low-level repairman named Xiang Fan was unaware of the situation and was continuing his ordinary and busy maintenance work at Qixing Company...
However, his influence has long exceeded what he could have imagined.
