When Lin Zhiyue's figure gradually disappeared from sight, the three researchers gathered together in an instant, their expressions serious. The atmosphere was so tense that it seemed as if the air was about to freeze.
One of the researchers, Qian, spoke first, his voice full of anxiety and worry: "Old Zhao, after listening to Lin Zhiyue's explanation today, you know that this technology is too important. Once it is leaked, the consequences will be disastrous! But the security situation of this machinery factory is really worrying."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands vigorously and his brows were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
The researcher called Lao Zhao nodded solemnly, his eyes revealing deep worry: "Yes, this technology is related to the country's scientific and technological development and strategic security, and there must be no mistakes. The existing security force of the machinery factory is far from enough to deal with potential risks."
Lao Li at the side also quickly echoed: "Yes, we must take action as soon as possible, without wasting a minute."
His face was full of anxiety and he kept pacing on the spot.
After thinking for a moment, Lao Zhao said firmly, "I will call right away and report the situation to the higher-ups and ask the military to send someone to protect us. Only in this way can we ensure the safety of the technology and related materials."
After saying that, he did not dare to delay for a moment and strode quickly towards Director Song's office.
Every step is taken steadily and powerfully, as if carrying a heavy responsibility.
When he arrived at Director Song’s office, Lao Zhao didn’t bother to knock on the door. He just pushed it open and walked in.
Director Song saw his anxious look and realized the seriousness of the matter, so he quickly stood up and asked.
Old Zhao panted and told them all the content of their discussion and the idea of applying for military protection.
When Director Song heard what Researcher Zhao said, he instantly realized the urgency and key of the matter. He looked solemn and said sincerely, "Okay, then you can fight here. I will step aside and not disturb you while you are reporting."
After saying that, Director Song gently closed the office door and left quickly, leaving a private reporting space for Researcher Zhao.
After Director Song left, Researcher Zhao took a deep breath, calmed his slightly rapid breathing, steadyed himself, quickly picked up the phone, and skillfully dialed the hotline number for Chief No. 2.
After two beeps from the other end of the phone, the call was connected successfully.
Researcher Zhao straightened his back immediately, and reported in a loud and clear voice in an orderly manner: "Hello, Chief! I am Zhao Qiang. At present, the research completed by Lin Zhiyue in the machinery factory has successfully overcome key technical difficulties. The navigation system she developed contains many cutting-edge technologies. These technologies can not only bring changes to the existing machinery field, but also be widely used in many important fields such as aerospace and deep-sea exploration, and are of great strategic value. After rigorous verification, we found that this technology has not yet been developed abroad and is at the world's leading level. In view of the sensitivity and importance of this technology, and considering the limitations of the current security forces of the machinery factory, in order to prevent technology leaks, on behalf of the team, I solemnly apply for the dispatch of elite soldiers from the nearest military region to implement security protection work. I sincerely ask for the chief's instructions!"
Chief No. 2 held the receiver, his originally peaceful face instantly shrouded in solemnity. His voice unconsciously rose a few degrees, and he asked, "Hasn't it been studied abroad yet? Have you investigated Lin Zhiyue's family background?"
Zhao Qiang responded nervously from the receiver: "No, Chief."
The No. 2 leader hesitated for a moment, then made a quick decision with a firm and steady tone: "Okay, I'll send soldiers over to protect them first. You guys continue your research and wait for further instructions."
"Okay, Chief!" Zhao Qiang replied in a loud voice.
After hanging up the phone, Chief No. 2 did not delay at all and immediately called out to his secretary: "Xiao Li, come in!"
Upon hearing the voice, Secretary Xiao Li quickly pushed the door open and stood upright in front of the leader, waiting for instructions.
Chief No. 2 looked serious, his eyes revealing unquestionable majesty, and ordered: "Use all resources immediately to conduct a detailed investigation of the family background of a girl named Lin Zhiyue, including the detailed resumes and social relationships of her immediate family members. No details can be missed, and you must give me a complete report as soon as possible."
After receiving the order, Xiao Li walked out of the office quickly, and an in-depth investigation into Lin Zhiyue's family background began.
Secretary Xiao Li hurried into the office, standing straight, and respectfully handed over a stack of neatly bound documents with both hands: "Chief, this is the detailed information about Lin Zhiyue."
Leader No. 2 put down the document in his hand, reached out to take it, and quickly scanned the first page with a focused expression.
As he read deeper, his brows first frowned slightly, and then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that the information shows that Lin Zhiyue and Lin Weidong were sent to the same village, and she is Lin Weidong's granddaughter.
Leader No. 2 is very familiar with the name Lin Weidong.
Lin Weidong devoted himself to the revolution in his early years, risked his life for the country's liberation cause, and made outstanding achievements.
Although he suffered injustice during special periods, he always remained loyal to the Party and the country.
Such a family background is undoubtedly a strong endorsement.
Realizing that Lin Zhiyue had a clean background and no problems with her background, Chief No. 2's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and a hint of relief appeared on his face.
He leaned back in his chair, breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly sighed in his heart: The descendant of a hero has lived up to people's expectations.
It seems that the research and development and subsequent promotion of this technology will provide an additional reassuring guarantee.
On the other side, after Zhao Qiang hung up the phone, he quickly walked towards the laboratory where Lao Li was.
Along the way, he kept thinking about the content of the conversation he had just had with the leader and planning the follow-up research plan.
When I pushed open the door of the laboratory, a strong smell of engine oil hit me in the face.
Old Li was lying next to the engine, concentrating on studying its internal structure, and the tools in his hands were moving flexibly between the parts.
"Old Li!" Zhao Qiang called out loudly, with a hint of excitement in his voice.
Old Li looked up when he heard the voice, took off his greasy gloves, and looked at him in confusion: "What's the matter? Why are you so anxious? What did the commander say?"
Zhao Qiang walked up to him, unable to suppress his excitement, and said, "The chief has agreed to send soldiers to protect us. Now we can focus on our research. By the way, we have to follow the chief's instructions and sort out the existing research results first, and then wait for the next step."
After hearing this, Lao Li smiled with relief: "That's great. With the military's protection, the risk of technology leaks is much smaller. I will sort out the technical difficulties and breakthrough ideas of the engine in the next few days, so that I can report back when the time comes."
The two exchanged views on the details of the follow-up research, their eyes full of determination and expectation to overcome technical difficulties and promote technological applications.
