Chapter 005: 'Dragon Group' Established
"Of course, I don't think the other party's reason is just to open a store. But this is the signal that the witch has been sending out in her actions, so let's just believe it for now." Ye Caiying didn't care about everyone's discussion. This meeting was held for discussion. "Then, according to this premise, the other party's next move should be to select customers and conduct transactions. At present, we have no effective way to stop her actions. There will definitely be people who succeed in various transactions in the future. What countermeasures should we take at that time?"
"Secretary Ye, what are the results of the artificial intelligence research on Officer Duan's choice of transactions mentioned in the materials?" Regarding the transaction between Duan Shi and the witch, many people looked through the materials and only saw a few short sentences mentioning it, without any detailed explanation.
"I won't give any professional explanations on this aspect. All you need to know is that the data analyzed from it can directly advance our country's science and technology by decades!" Secretary Ye seemed very excited when he said this.
They have been suppressed by Western countries for long enough. Although their national strength is already very strong, due to the technological blockade by Western countries, many scientific research projects have been unable to break through the defense line, resulting in their country's international status always being suppressed by several top countries and unable to turn around. Faced with this situation, everyone from the management to the people have been dissatisfied for a long time.
This time, an opportunity came from heaven, and their country finally didn't have to follow the rules of other countries. As long as that witch does not contact foreign countries for the time being, they will have secured their position as the world's top power!
Upon hearing such exciting news suddenly, everyone participating in the meeting went wild, and the noise of discussion in the meeting room suddenly became as noisy as a vegetable market.
Many people also shouted in unison: "Is this true?!"
Everyone found it unbelievable. They knew that artificial intelligence could play a big role, but they didn't expect it to be so big. How many years have it been since the emergence of mobile phones? After decades of technological leaps, how far can they go?
"Yes. In addition to artificial intelligence itself, its system also stores a lot of knowledge, covering many aspects from people's livelihood to military affairs. According to the deductions of scientists and the restoration of data, we can even promote it directly without conducting experiments."
"It's too hasty to promote it directly. I think we should conduct a few more rounds of trials."
Most people are not very supportive of this proposal. Who knows if the things the alien life forms take out contain any traps that they cannot analyze? What if they contain programs to steal information? Until you have a thorough understanding, it is better to be cautious.
However, some people also think that they don't need to be so vigilant. Judging from the various methods currently displayed by the witch, if she or the civilization behind her wants to attack Blue Star, they do not have enough resistance. In this case, there is no need for the witch to beat around the bush when giving a big gift and then tamper with it.
"What we lack most now is time. Neither the highly developed alien civilizations nor our competitors will allow us to drag it on any longer." In a technological society, whoever masters the technology has the right to speak. Their Flower-Growing Country has finally seized the opportunity and must not miss it again. Ye Caiying said with a sigh: "Several countries are working hard on research. I heard that those old rivals have made progress to varying degrees. Although our country has made progress, it is still too slow in comparison."
When the countries across the ocean were mentioned, everyone present frowned in unison.
It is not so easy to let go of past grudges. Appearing harmoniously and peacefully on the international stage does not mean that they are also harmonious in private.
"So I think we should promote and apply these technologies as quickly as possible."
"Okay, we'll discuss this later. Now let me tell you about the country's arrangements for this matter."
Ye Caiying stopped everyone from arguing. This matter was too important. The country was also hesitant and a solution might not be decided in a short time.
"In order to deal with the problems that witches may cause in the future, the country has decided to set up a special department named 'Dragon Team', and Officer Duan will be the team leader. The departments within the team include the technical team, analysis team, news team, and field team. These are the temporary departments, and other departments will be added as needed."
"The specific members will be notified by the person in charge after the meeting. Those who have received the appointment letter should report as soon as possible..."
Duan Shi sat below, listening to the speech casually while thinking about other things.
In the end it was actually named 'Dragon Group'. What were those bosses thinking?
Because the witch likes the two-dimensional culture and opened a wish store, so their country also has a dragon group. What kind of reason is this...
Duan Shi had so much to complain about that he didn't know who to tell. This name was really... 2D-style.
As he was thinking, Duan Shi covered his mouth with his hand and yawned silently. Last night they discussed these things until the early morning, and only found a chance to take a nap when it was almost dawn. He can now maintain a relatively clear mind thanks to frequently working overtime and staying up late to deal with various difficult cases. His body has become accustomed to the reversed day and night life, otherwise his brain would have become a mess long ago.
I don’t know how the discussion went on my grandfather’s side. Although the old man has retired for several years due to health reasons, he is the direct person involved this time, and I guess his grandfather will also go for a visit.
And his father should have received the notice by now, and some of his people will be transferred to the Dragon Group. Not to mention his fucking self, the aerospace experts are definitely now intensively studying the information they have obtained, and I'm afraid we won't be able to see it in the short term.
Duan Shi counted the recent arrangements of his family members and found that he had the heaviest workload. He couldn't help but sigh softly.
Although being valued by the country is a good thing, he really doesn't want to have a bald head like his father at such a young age. His father has a mother, but he still doesn't have one.
It's really distressing.
The meeting passed while Duan Shi was daydreaming. As soon as it was over, everyone went back to work in a hurry. Now is a time of racing against time and everyone has a lot of work to do.
Three days passed quickly, and the operation of the Dragon Group began to get on track. Each department performed its duties and paid close attention to possible witch-related incidents in society.
As for Chu Yi, he has not started the second action yet.
She is still preparing for her 'big plan'.
"Orange, have you selected it?"
Chu Yi stood in front of a huge dressing mirror, examining Qiao Ji in the mirror, while asking the fur ball next to him who was poking at the virtual panel with his little paws.
They are selecting live variety shows that are about to be launched soon, preferably ones with the participation of popular stars, so that the impact will be great enough.
"There are a few who meet the requirements, but it seems that none of the participating stars are particularly famous." Orange is a little distressed. If the fame is not big enough, the effect will not be that good. “Everyone doesn’t seem to like live streaming very much?”
"Because live streaming can easily go wrong." Chu Yi left the dressing mirror and walked over to pick up Orange. "Have you forgotten that last year a popular young actress lost popularity due to an accident during a live streaming. A large number of fans left her and she was directly hidden by the company. So even though live streaming is very popular, celebrities don't dare to gamble anymore."
Orange rubbed her hand: "In that case, what about the plan?"
"I have no choice but to go ahead with it." She was also helpless.
Since Chu Yi decided to help the world develop both technology and spiritual energy at the same time, after planting flowers and starting to climb the technology tree, they had to prepare to continue the world's lost cultivation heritage.
According to the information left by the Lord God, she knew that due to the catastrophe thousands of years ago, the blue planet became like a leaky balloon, and the spiritual energy dissipated. Until the end of the last century, the mystery of this world completely disappeared. Then the strange stories became a joke, the tradition of monks was cut off, and no one believed in the truth of those legends anymore.
Then in modern times, for some unknown reason, the spiritual energy that had disappeared began to revive. Although it is not as much as in ancient times, the content in the air is increasing year by year. If nothing unexpected happens, in a few years, all kinds of mysteries will be revived.
Yes, if nothing unexpected happens.
But what a coincidence, this world encountered such an accident.
'After the founding of the country, no spirits are allowed'
It's frustrating to say, this was originally just a joke, used by everyone to tease smart little animals, but when this sentence coincided with the revival of spiritual energy, problems arose.
In ancient times, people believed that language and writing were powerful and could communicate between heaven and earth, so they should not speak carelessly, and they reminded their descendants of this from generation to generation. But nowadays no one believes these things. Most people speak without restraint and even talk about gods and immortals without restraint.
This sentence was passed on by more and more people, and its influence began to expand. After several years of brewing, this sentence gradually sublimated, and slowly, it became a kind of rule and shackles, restricting the mystery born in this world. As a result, many ghosts that originally had the opportunity to awaken along with the spiritual energy can only accumulate strength mechanically, but cannot open their spiritual intelligence, and are directly regarded as natural phenomena by humans.
Many of the famous ghost walls, mazes, death valleys, etc. in news reports are actually caused by these mysteries wandering around unconsciously.
This ultimately led to an increase in Chu Yi's workload.
In fact, reviving spiritual energy is not that difficult. The spiritual energy in the world will grow on its own and she doesn't need to worry about it. She only needs to continue the broken inheritance and trade some skills, pills and weapons casually. They will work hard on their own. If it doesn't work, she can directly infuse them with spiritual energy, and a loser can be turned into a genius.
But now with this rule, she can't trade these things directly with customers. After the transaction, the customers can use them in her store, but not once they leave the store. The rules deny the existence of mystery, so she can only break the rules first and then allow the mystery to develop.
From this, she and Orange made a plan.
Choose a live broadcast program that is currently popular and has attracted a lot of attention. Under the gaze of countless fans and viewers, prove that in this world, the legends of monsters and spirits do exist, thus breaking the shackles of this rule.
Fortunately, her body and soul have nothing to do with this world, so she is not controlled by the rules of this world and can use those powers normally. Otherwise, she would have to regretfully give up the option of reviving her spiritual energy.
There are restrictions on the rules, and without plug-ins, it is really impossible to solve this situation.
"Let's not worry about the popularity of the guests for now. What programs have a lot of attention and good ratings?" As long as there are a lot of viewers, it's fine.
"Yes, yes. This program meets Lingling's requirements." Orange pressed a few buttons and brought up a program called "My Mysterious Journey". It explained to Chu Yi, "This program will invite several guests to travel and explore various places. The places chosen are all places with various mysterious legends. They are very popular with the audience."
Chu Yi looked through the screenshots of previous programs, exploring the mystery, with some horror elements but not completely terrifying, the scenery was good, the guests' reactions were interesting to watch, it was thrilling and funny, and it was indeed very interesting. She said with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go to this show. It just so happens that the preview address of their next show is an ancient bridge, which matches the suit I chose very well."
"Okay, let's get going."
"It's not us, it's me. You can't go this time." She looked at the jumping ball of fur lovingly, but her words were a ruthless rejection.
"Eh~~Why? QAQ" Orange was sad. This was the first time that Chu Yi refused to take it along. In the past, even during exams, it could disguise itself as a doll and follow her.
"Of course it's because you've been bound to the witch. If Brother Duan finds out about you, you'll be exposed." Seeing its eyes full of tears, Chu Yi couldn't bear it, but it really wouldn't work this time, and it wouldn't work when using other aliases in the future. "Okay, you can watch the live broadcast at home, be good~"
After comforting Orange for a while, she was able to set off.
On the way, Chu Yi clenched her fist silently. Whether she could open the spiritual energy era depended on this time. She must succeed.
