"The original agreement with President Gu Zhengqi was that it would be released in three months," said Lin Tao.

"Three months?" Hong Jingsheng was startled and frowned. "It's only been less than a week now, so doesn't that mean we have to wait for more than two months?"

Lin Tao nodded without saying anything.

Seeing Lin Tao's expression, Hong Jingsheng said anxiously, "CEO Lin, you know that after Skynet's repeated attacks, now that the real machine is out, all the rumors have been refuted, and a lot of publicity has been done for K223. Strike while the iron is hot. If you wait for more than two months before releasing it, I guess by then, you may not be able to achieve the expected sales target."

After these words were spoken, Director Wei narrowed his eyes and Liang Zeyu also kept silent.

Of these two people, Liang Zeyu was once the top elite of the business department, and Director Wei has been in the business department for a long time and is very familiar with the market, so he naturally understands what Hong Jingsheng said.

Taking advantage of Skynet's current move may be the best opportunity to release the machine.

The opportunity slips away in a flash, and once time is really wasted, three months later, everything will be different.

In the Interstellar Federation, there are more than one mecha company, and if there is a new mecha that attracts the attention of Skynet mecha masters, not only will sales drop sharply, but other mecha companies may even face forced sniping.

By then, not to mention whether the expected sales target can be achieved, it is even possible that more weaknesses will be discovered due to the sniping of mobile mecha companies, and eventually the company will be unable to make ends meet and be acquired by large mecha companies.

There are many precedents for this.

Release in advance? Lin Tao frowned. He had ordered the employees of the Four Elephants Mecha Company to take a month-long holiday. If they really wanted to come back, it would take at least a month.

Could it be that they should cancel the holiday and directly ask them to come back to work? Lin Tao developed this machine not for sale. Moreover, if it really follows the trajectory of later generations, this machine will not be launched until another year, when the eight giants are about to escape.

It can be said that this mecha was really cheap for the Liu family in the end.

Seeing that Lin Tao didn't speak for a long time, Hong Jingsheng frowned slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "CEO Lin, don't worry too much. If there are some minor obstacles, you can tell me. I will report to my superiors and help you solve it."

"A groundbreaking machine cannot lose its function because of the mischief of some people." Hong Jingsheng said in a firm tone.

Hong Jingsheng was very optimistic about K223 and wanted to purchase it immediately to try to develop new movements for the aircraft.

Facing Hong Jingsheng's sharp eyes, Lin Tao hesitated for a moment and then handed the matter of selling the machine over to Director Wei. Director Wei was not only a veteran of the Sixiang Mecha Company, but was also usually in charge of business sales.

Skynet.

With the appearance of the actual video of K223 and Skynet's bias, all the rumors related to K223 disappeared.

Skynet mecha masters gathered in groups of three or five to discuss K223. Especially after the wind direction of Skynet changed, many Skynet mecha masters chose this mecha for combat.

Even many Skynet mecha masters who were previously influenced by black posts also chose this type of machine.

Because they all wanted to try that move.

That move, using the inertia of the jump as a secondary acceleration, almost opened up a new tactical move. Many people even believed that this machine was capable of much more than just this move.

Skynet has gathered almost all mecha enthusiasts, and even the mecha divisions of the entire Interstellar Federation are active in it.

There are quite a few mecha operators who have operated humanoid mechas before. They were the quickest to get started with K223. After getting started, they immediately fell in love with this mecha, as if they had found true love.

The strongest among them mastered this machine movement in the shortest time and named it "L Jump".

Black Wolf Mecha Company.

Ever since the change in Skynet's direction, the entire Black Wolf Mecha Company's top management has fallen into an unspeakable silence, especially the fat black CEO, who has been locked in the CEO's office and has not come out. No one knows what has happened.

All the senior executives did not dare to go there and ask for trouble.

In the office, in addition to the fat black CEO, there is another senior executive, who is the one responsible for contacting the insider of the Four Elephants Mecha Company.

"CEO, I really can't find a way to get close to the Four Elephants Mecha Company."

The voice of the traitor came from the watch of the senior executive, with a somewhat aggrieved tone.

Less than a week had passed since the Sixiang Mecha Company announced a holiday, but he was expelled as soon as he arrived at the door, not to mention entering the company. He was treated like an outsider. If all employees were not treated the same, he might have fled Mingyuan Star long ago.

"Can't get in at all?" The fat black CEO frowned. He had heard that someone from the military had entered the Sixiang Mecha Company. Adding on the changes in Skynet, he had a vague idea of ​​what was going on and wanted to get the remaining design drawings of K223 even more.

Only in this way can their Black Wolf Mecha Company launch a new type of aircraft in the shortest time possible.

"I can't get in even a step." The insider said helplessly.

Just as he finished speaking, there was a rapid beeping sound from a watch.

"CEO, this is news from the Sixiang Mecha Company." The insider explained hurriedly.

“Take it first and reply later.” The fat black CEO narrowed his eyes slightly.

"CEO, this is just news." The insider said, and he quickly glanced at the news on his watch and was immediately surprised: "CEO, this is a notice from the Four Elephants Mecha Company, requiring employees to return to work tomorrow."

Resuming work tomorrow?

The black fat CEO's eyes flashed with cold light, and his face was gloomy and uncertain. Is it time to start the production of K223? "No matter what means we use, we must get the remaining design drawings of K223 in the shortest possible time." The black fat CEO said coldly.

"I understand." The inner ghost responded repeatedly.

"After the task is accomplished, when you come back, you will be the new technology director of our Black Wolf Mecha Company, and also the candidate for the next CEO." The fat black CEO understood the clever tactic of combining kindness with force, and made a solemn promise to the insider.

At the same time, at the First Mecha Academy of Mingyuan Star.

After receiving the news from Lin Tao about the early sale of K223, the dean immediately called all the department heads together and held another routine meeting.

"When I first saw the K223 design, I was optimistic about Lin Tao. Look, not to mention the change in the Skynet trend, even the military has asked them to release the aircraft ahead of schedule."

The person who spoke was Hu Wei, the director of the Electronic Design Department. When he first saw the design of the energy system, he saw Lin Tao's potential.

"Need you to tell me?" Tong Zhihe, the head of the Engine Department, stroked his white beard. Although the main engine of K223 was just a conventional engine, the eight small engines were masterpieces of design. Not only could they produce 70% to 80% of the main engine's power, they also gave other engine designers new inspiration.

These two features alone put the K223 at the forefront of the Interstellar Federation. It can even be said that this is a revolutionary aircraft.

"It's good, but this aircraft will definitely cause headaches for our students in the maintenance department in the future." Dean Tian Zhi of the maintenance department rubbed his temples and shook his head repeatedly.

Putting aside the energy system, the eight small engines alone will definitely become a nightmare for maintenance personnel. The increased difficulty of maintenance is not as simple as 1+1.

"Haha~ Old Tian, ​​what are you talking about? Every time a new mecha appears, your maintenance department will have a headache." Rui Zhi, the head of the chassis department, laughed. He had a different opinion: "However, this is also a good start. In my opinion, this K223 will definitely become the design direction of the next generation of mecha. When your maintenance department adapts to the maintenance courses of this mecha, maybe those old courses will be thrown into the trash can."

As he spoke, he seemed to be talking to himself, saying, "Alas, when will Lin Tao be free to come to our chassis department?"

No matter which department Lin Tao is in, he always has an amazing side. If he were in their chassis department, would he also innovate and design a new type of chassis?

Even, can the problem of floating chassis that has troubled the chassis system for a long time be solved? Rui Zhi is very much looking forward to it.

Lu Xuewen from the Materials Department did not say a word. After all, Lin Tao's K223 body did not use any new materials, so he had nothing to talk about.

Of course, if new materials are really developed, the shock it will cause in the mecha world will be more than what we see now.

"Okay, you've said enough." At this time, the dean also coughed twice, and waited until all the department heads in the conference room quieted down before speaking: "Now Lin Tao plans to increase manpower and vigorously produce this machine. Can each of your departments send some more people over?"

While speaking, the dean's eyes fell on Tian Zhi, the director of the Maintenance Department.

"Why are you looking at me?" Tian Zhi frowned.

"Old Tian, ​​didn't you just say that the students in your department would have a headache because of the K223 aircraft? Well, here's the opportunity." Director Tong of the Engine Design Department stroked his white beard and laughed.

"That's right. As long as you all join in the production of the aircraft and teach by example, you will soon master the disassembly of K223. By then, the students in your department will probably be sought after by all the repair workshops." Department Head Hu Wei also laughed.

In the First Mecha Academy, except for the Materials Department, Maintenance Department, and Mecha Engineer Department, all other departments are design departments. The students in these design departments can only help look at the design drawings at most and are completely unable to participate in the process of machine production.

"That's a good idea." Dean Tian Zhi nodded and agreed: "Since the holiday is coming soon, let's discuss it with Lin Tao and let them learn more."

"Since Old Tian agrees, let's send out a notice to see if there are any mecha masters willing to go." Wei Lin, the head of the mecha master department, also said with a smile. -Some mecha master trainees aim to join the interstellar exploration team. When they encounter some routine repairs outside, they are usually done by mecha masters themselves. Participating in the production process of K223 will be more or less beneficial to them.

Seeing that Department Head Tian Zhi and Department Head Wei Lin both nodded, the dean was extremely satisfied.
