After listening to Bai Fan's explanation, Lin Tao was already quite satisfied with the performance of this fifth-generation chip. However, on second thought, Lin Tao called out Zhe on the spot.
Gurgle gurgle!
A round metal bead emerged from the strap of Lin Tao's watch: "Lin Tao, what's going on?"
The sudden appearance of the metal ball, coupled with the fact that it could speak like a human, stunned everyone present, especially Bai Fan, whose eyes widened.
"Huh? What is this?"
"It can actually talk? Is this another novelty designed by Lin Tao?"
"Strange, why did Lin Tao bring a mechanical toy with him?"
…
Everyone was talking about it.
"This is..." Bai Fan, who is engaged in chip design, was shocked after being stunned: "Is this a highly intelligent AI?"
"What highly intelligent AI? I am a member of the mechanical clan." Zhe snorted coldly on the spot, and the core sphere was flashing with rapid light, expressing its dissatisfaction.
"Mechanical...mechanical clan?" Bai Fan was stunned.
Everyone was stunned, shocked and surprised. After staring at the metal ball blankly, their eyes all fell on Lin Tao, waiting for his explanation.
"This is a mechanical race from outside the Human Interstellar Federation. Well, the mechanical race, like us humans, is a group with autonomous capabilities." Lin Tao explained, but the more he explained, the more difficult it was for everyone present to understand.
Everyone present was originally an ordinary person, so how could they know about foreign races that even the top leaders of the Human Interstellar Federation might not know about?
As if sensing Zhe's dissatisfaction, Lin Tao frowned and said again: "Well, just treat it like a human being."
"Treat them as human beings?" Bai Fan blinked.
Zheng Tuo and others also frowned, but since Lin Tao had spoken, they had to try their best to look at the glowing metal ball from a human perspective.
"Zheng, you should have heard what Bai Fan said just now. Do you think this chip can be further improved?" Lin Tao asked Zheng.
Hearing Lin Tao's words, Bai Fan's heart tightened and his eyes quickly drifted towards the metal beads in the air.
"According to your human concept, this is already a pretty good auxiliary chip. However, if combined with the concept of our mechanical race, the performance of this chip is still lacking." Zhe said shamelessly and snorted coldly.
"Can it be improved further? How?" Bai Fan asked urgently.
"Hmph!" Zhe snorted heavily and did not answer. The mechanical clan also has the pride of the mechanical clan.
"Zheng, he is the strongest chip designer in our Mingyuan Star, and at this stage, he is the only chip designer in the Human Interstellar Federation." Lin Tao said.
Bai Fan's face flushed and his heart was even more excited when Lin Tao emphasized it so much. Fortunately, he still had self-knowledge. If it weren't for Lin Tao's chip drawings, he might not have been able to unlock his own talents, so Bai Fan was able to remain calm.
"Perhaps, the chip he designed can be of use to you too." Seeing that the core sphere of Zhe was flashing with rapid light from time to time, Lin Tao said again.
This finally aroused Zhe's interest: "Well, I'll help him study it when I have time."
Although chip technology is a branch of later mechas, once it appeared, it also occupied an important position in the mecha world, just like chip computers.
Lin Tao is very optimistic about this technology.
After asking Bai Fan, Lin Tao looked at Peng Haokong and Tong Xuelin again. Before leaving, Lin Tao asked the two to study mecha technology to the best of their ability.
Peng Haokong is responsible for energy development, while Tong Xuelin's specialty is TR series transforming machines.
"I haven't made much progress here." Peng Haokong stood up and shook his head: "Lin Tao, the designs you gave all require some special materials. Even Dean Lu Xuewen doesn't know much about these materials."
Lu Xuewen also stood up immediately: "Lin Tao, don't blame Xiao Peng, I have already investigated the information, and the materials you listed are unheard of in the materials industry."
Lin Tao frowned slightly, and then he understood that a large part of the materials he listed were cosmic wonders. In this era, perhaps the Grand Speaker and the Star Pirates had found similar materials, but they did not announce them, so the outside world naturally had no way of knowing.
Lin Tao nodded and motioned for them to sit down.
As for Tong Xuelin, he let his mind wander during this period and researched out the TR transformation structures of several different machines. He even thought about the Extreme Wind Phoenix and the giant mecha.
The Extreme Wind Phoenix was easy to deal with, as there were many of this type of machine, and Zheng Tuo could allocate eight or ten for him to research. However, when it came to the giant mecha, Zheng Tuo became difficult to deal with.
Firstly, Tong Xuelin only had drawings of these TR transforming structures and was unable to produce them immediately. Even after the Extreme Wind Phoenixes were disassembled into pieces, no results were produced. Under such circumstances, Zheng Tuo would not allow Tong Xuelin to get involved in the giant mecha.
After all, there are only two giant mechas in the entire Mingyuan Star.
After understanding Tong Xuelin's situation, Lin Tao didn't say much and asked Tong Xuelin for the TR deformation structure drawings of the two machines on the spot.
Lin Tao didn't care about planet management because he had made no achievements in this area, let alone managing it personally.
Even so, Lin Tao still put forward the request of the Grand Speaker: "Before we came here, the Grand Speaker once issued an order requiring us to take back the nearby planets of wealthy forces as soon as possible. What do you think about this?"
"Lin Tao, I have studied the nearby star map." Zheng Tuo stood up. He had long wanted to expand the influence of Mingyuan Star. Even before this, he had wanted to send the Jifeng Phoenix to seize it.
After the explanation, Lin Tao suddenly understood that there were nearly ten star systems belonging to powerful forces near Mingyuan Star, among which the Liu family star system was the most numerous.
This is no wonder, as Mingyuan Star was originally a planet belonging to the Liu family.
"We still have five giant starry sky ships here. If we want to launch an attack in a short period of time, we can still do it." Zheng Kaichou said.
However, Lin Tao had other plans. He said, "Let's keep these five spaceships for now."
"Lin Tao——" Zheng Tuo became anxious.
Zheng Kaichou also frowned deeply.
Lin Tao waved his hand: "Mingyuan Star still needs some star power to prevent the enemy from attacking. If you want to attack, you can only launch an attack after the star warships of Mingzhou Star come back and are ready."
Zheng Kaichou nodded immediately, and Zheng Tuo finally understood.
"I will make some arrangements on Mingyuan Star in a short time, and then go to the Liu family's forces with the high-speed ship." Lin Tao said.
The Liu family is closest to Mingyuan Star and is also Lin Tao’s first choice target. After all, the commander of the general fleet of two thousand giant star ships that ambushed him on Mingzhou Star was from the Liu family.
"You just came back and you're leaving again?" Zheng Tuo was stunned.
Zheng Kaichou also spoke up to persuade him: "Lin Tao, you are the master of Mingyuan Star. If you are not here, then Mingyuan Star will easily fall into chaos when it encounters an enemy attack."
"Don't worry, Lu Mengchen will stay here." Seeing everyone's strange expressions, he smiled and explained: "Lu Mengchen has great power, her power is not even less than mine. If the wealthy forces or the Star Pirates come, you can ask her for help, maybe she can solve some problems for you."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Bai Fan's attitude towards Lu Mengchen's idolization was elevated to a higher level.
"Okay, the meeting is over..."
Before Lin Tao finished speaking, the core ball of Zhe jumped up: "Lin Tao, have you forgotten our agreement? Memory metal! Memory metal!"
"Memory metal?" Lu Xuewen heard it and exclaimed: "Could it be that those memory metals came from this friend of the mechanical race?"
"Dean Lu Xuewen, are you in charge of that ball of memory metal?" Lin Tao's heart moved.
"Yes, it's him. I've seen what he looks like." Zhe shouted repeatedly, and the metal ball flew towards Lu Xuewen and stopped half an inch in front of him, which scared Lu Xuewen.
"Well, memory metal is a project I have been researching. Lin Tao, don't forget that I am in charge of the Materials Department of the First College." Lu Xuewen paused and said, "Lin Tao, we recently developed some samples based on that ball of memory metal, but during testing, we found that these samples are very different from that ball of memory metal."
At this point, his face turned red, and he looked a little embarrassed: "With our current technology, it is difficult to produce memory metal that is exactly the same."
"Of course you can't make it. The memory metal of our mechanical race is mixed with several cosmic wonders. Moreover, even if you have these cosmic wonders, you may not be able to make it." Zhe snorted.
After these words came out, Lu Xuewen felt even more embarrassed, because the current progress was exactly as the metal ball in front of him said.
"Dean Lu Xuewen, don't worry, this mechanical race will help you complete it." Lin Tao smiled slightly, and before the monster could roar, he blocked its mouth again: "Dean Lu Xuewen, you must remember that after the memory metal is made, prepare enough for it to form at least one spaceship."
"That's right. I need enough to form a giant spaceship." The metal ball flew away with satisfaction.
"Okay, the meeting is over." Lin Tao said, and then asked Zhe: "Zhe, do you plan to help make memory metal first, or help make chips first?"
Lu Xuewen and Bai Fan both looked at the core sphere with sparkling eyes, and they wished they could take the metal ball back to their own laboratory immediately.
"Aren't there just two projects?" The arrogant buttocks said: "Gather the people from both projects together, I can give instructions at the same time."
"By the way, Lin Tao, you have to help me find some cosmic wonders, otherwise I won't be able to guide them."
This was not a big problem for Lin Tao, and he nodded and agreed on the spot.
