The next day, when the sun rose, Lin Tao and others also got up.
Lin Tao had just walked out of the room when he saw Liang Zeyu sitting on the sofa.
Seeing Lin Tao, Liang Zeyu immediately pulled him aside: "Lin Tao, I plan to go back to the company first."
Liang Zeyu was originally an employee of the Sixiang Mecha Company. He has been away for several days now. No one knows what the company’s current situation is and whether there is a position for him.
After all, employees like him who spend all their time working hard usually have few close colleagues, so he sent several messages back, but no one responded.
"It's good to go back." Lin Tao nodded and said, "Now you know that I will join the Four Elephants Mecha Company. When you go back, don't just immerse yourself in work. Pay attention to the company's personnel. If you find anything suspicious, write it down."
Liang Zeyu understood. It was because he knew that Lin Tao would go to the Sixiang Mecha Company that he had this sudden idea. On the one hand, he could collect some information in advance, and on the other hand, he could also get to know the company's customers and business to pave the way for Lin Tao in advance.
After the Du siblings came out of the room, Liang Zeyu left alone.
After washing up, Bai Fan brought breakfast, but after last night's banquet, he still looked a little depressed, which caused Du Ruizhi to tease him from time to time, making him roll his eyes repeatedly.
Four of them returned to the academy.
Lin Tao originally wanted to go back to the Materials Department, but on second thought, he ran towards the Dean's office.
Not long after he walked out, a student recognized him.
"It's Lin Tao. That person is Lin Tao."
"What? Lin Tao, the first person in the academy and the only one who entered the special class?"
"Where is he going?"
"People in the special class can go anywhere, of course. Didn't you see the notice? Lin Tao can now attend classes in various departments, and he can go directly to Class 1 when he arrives."
…
Among the students, some were jealous, some were envious, and quite a few had sour looks on their faces.
Along the way, many people greeted Lin Tao, even the instructors were no exception.
Lin Tao nodded to everyone who greeted him along the way. He had encountered many such things in later generations, so he was not surprised.
Capable people will always be envied and admired, but more often they will be respected.
Just arrived at the Dean's Office.
It’s a bit early and the dean hasn’t come back yet.
However, the dean's assistant had arrived long ago. She was a beautiful young woman in her thirties, dressed in formal attire. When she saw Lin Tao coming, she recognized him immediately.
"You are Lin Tao. Wait a minute, I will notify the dean right away." Seeing Lin Tao leaving with a frown, she hurriedly stopped Lin Tao.
Lin Tao is now the 'number one in the academy', with a noble status, and is no less talented than the mecha master students in the mecha master department. If she is neglected, the dean will definitely demote her.
Lin Tao nodded and walked straight into the dean's office.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps.
When I turned around, I saw the dean running towards me, panting.
Stay away.
“Hoo~Hoo~Lin Tao, you brat.” The dean hadn’t even caught his breath when he pointed at Lin Tao from a distance, his face filled with anger, and shouted, “You said you wanted to take two days off, but you actually disappeared for two days.”
He thought that Lin Tao would take two days off and would keep in touch with these old men from time to time, but he didn't expect that there was no news at all, as if he had disappeared again, without a trace.
Lin Tao shrugged. If he didn't want to go back to the academy to recruit some people, he really wouldn't have planned to come back.
"You kid, you finally realized you were back?" After seeing Lin Tao, the dean felt relieved and hurried to the washroom to wash up. It seemed that he had just been woken up and came here in a hurry.
After a quick wash and simple tidying up, the dean stood in front of Lin Tao again.
"Lin Tao, where have you been these two days? Director Tong and Director Lu have been coming to me to inquire about your whereabouts." The dean scolded.
Lin Tao left a question in one of the two departments and a blueprint in the other one, but no one in the two departments was able to solve it. Since they couldn't find Lin Tao, they had no choice but to appeal to the dean, who approved Lin Tao's two-day vacation on the spot.
Lin Tao smiled and said nothing. After the dean stopped talking, he raised his wrist and operated his watch.
In an instant, a 3D mecha leaped into the air.
This is a 3D rendering of a mecha.
The dean squinted his eyes and saw a huge mecha that looked like a tiger. Unlike ordinary tiger-like mechas, this giant tiger was obviously a little bloated, like an elephant, and was covered with countless weapons all around.
"This is..." The dean couldn't see any clues, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"This is a tiger-shaped machine I designed recently."
Lin Tao said: "This machine adopts the commonly used four-limb chassis, but the amount of weapons and explosives on it is twice that of ordinary machines."
"With this design, can the power keep up with doubling the weapons and charge?" The dean squinted his eyes and looked around at the 3D graphics.
The military has been designing to enhance weapons and ammunition, but as the number of weapons and ammunition increases, the limbs that serve as the chassis must also be strengthened accordingly based on the weight ratio, otherwise they will not be able to withstand the excess weight.
However, if the weight increases, the engine will inevitably be affected. This will not only slow down the body's mobility, but also increase the loss of the engine and make it more likely to be damaged.
Lin Tao smiled. As a knowledgeable time traveler from later generations, how could he not be prepared?
"Dean, look at these parts." Lin Tao pointed at the limbs that served as the chassis and the various joints of the tiger-shaped body.
The dean narrowed his eyes. After a moment, the dean, who was once the head of the framework design department, saw the clue at a glance and exclaimed: "This is..."
Although the appearance had changed, he could still recognize it at a glance. It was the shrunken mecha engine.
"That's right. The engine of a mecha is not only the heart of the body, but can also have various functions. You see, these parts are actually equipped with corresponding small engines. Once started at the same time, this body is enough to burst out performance far beyond that of ordinary mechas." Lin Tao said.
For aircraft of this era, engines were generally used only as power units and were rarely used for other purposes. Therefore, in the absence of new engines, this aircraft caught Lin Tao's attention.
Of course, Lin Tao could also use a new engine from later generations, but that would add a lot of trouble, so since it would save him time and effort, he naturally chose a method that would save him time and effort.
If this machine had been developed according to normal history, it was launched after the failure of the improved version of the Flying Tiger God of War in order to compete with the Black Wolf Mecha Company. Not only did the amount of weapons and ammunition double, even the armor was also enhanced.
However, with various enhancements, the performance of this machine is no worse than that of other normal machines.
"So that's how it is." The dean suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad, this design just makes perfect use of the engine..."
But just when he got to this point, the dean suddenly frowned again: "Lin Tao, regardless of the size of the engines, with such a large number of engines, how much energy does this machine need to carry?"
The energy source of mechas in this era uses ultra-high-power electricity. With too many engines, their energy consumption will be relatively increased. It is estimated that their endurance will be greatly weakened. When two mechas fight, sometimes the competition is not about weapons, but endurance. After all, after avoiding the attack, if one side lacks energy, it will definitely become a target.
Lin Tao smiled slightly: "Dean, haven't you noticed it yet?"
"Hmm?" The dean frowned.
"Double! Double!" Lin Tao reminded.
The dean was startled, then his eyes showed an incredible look: "Lin Tao, is it possible that even the power supply is doubled?"
In this era, carrying two power supplies is not as simple as one plus one. It requires certain design to achieve. Moreover, while this seems to improve the battery life, it is also more likely to cause an explosion due to accidental damage.
Lin Tao smiled and nodded without saying anything.
The dean showed a look of shock and quickly walked around the 3D machine again to examine it carefully.
"Does it...really work?" The dean still didn't quite believe it.
"It's doable." Lin Tao nodded vigorously. "With double the weapons, ammunition, and energy, we can also double the armor. This way, we can protect the energy while increasing the body's defense."
When this machine was launched, it surpassed the Black Wolf Mecha Company in a short period of time, forcing the other party to research the same type of machine.
You know, when this machine was launched, the Sixiang Mecha Company was in crisis due to the improved Flying Tiger War God machine. If they were not careful, the whole company would lose its reputation.
But it was this type of aircraft that was highly praised not only by the military, but also in all aspects, and eventually became a best-selling model, and even many space exploration teams came to place orders.
"Hiss~" the dean took a breath of cold air. This was simply beyond the imagination of an ordinary framework designer.
"Yesterday, someone from the Blood Wolf Gang headquarters came to apologize to me. They saw this model and said it was more suitable for the Four Elephants Mecha Company. They were going to recommend me to join the Four Elephants Mecha Company with their 10% equity."
Seeing that the time was right, Lin Tao quickly struck while the iron was hot.
"These wolf cubs!" When the dean mentioned the Blood Wolf Gang, his face darkened. However, when he heard that the Blood Wolf Gang also owned 10% of the shares of the Four Elephants Mecha Company, he was shocked again: "When did they get 10% of the shares?"
It seems that the dean is not aware of this.
Lin Tao was not surprised. Except for some retail shareholders, the shares of the mecha company were not announced to the outside world. This was approved by the Interstellar Federation to protect the mecha company, so it was reasonable for the dean not to know about it.
"The people from the Blood Wolf Gang think that if this mecha is manufactured, it may be a big seller. They said they want to take it to the Star Mansion and ask them to agree that I can be the CEO of the Four Elephants Mecha Company."
Lin Tao pretended to be casual and said nonchalantly: "Although it seems unlikely, but they insisted too much, so I asked them to take a copy of the blueprint and send it over."
