This Game is Too Real Chapter 647

  Chapter 647 We can set up a special zone in the Wandering Swamp

  Dawn City.

   Main road leading to Union Building.

   It's not even noon yet, and the place is bustling with people.

   Occasionally, one or two cars drive by on the widened road, but most of them are pedestrians on foot or on bicycles.

  Looking at the crowds on both sides of the road, Yang Kai, who was standing on the edge of the crowd, couldn't help frowning slightly, and subconsciously stopped.

   Having stayed in laboratories or research ships all year round, he doesn't like crowded places.

   On the one hand, a large number of people means noisy and noisy, on the other hand, the air is full of aerosols mixed with droplets.

  Jiang Xuezhou, who was following aside, saw the instructor stop and introduced him in a low voice.

"This is the central avenue of Dawn City, adjacent to the most prosperous North Street. It is said that a long time ago, the soldiers of the Alliance fought against the marauders of the Bonechewer tribe here, and dug a lot of trenches... Later, as the refugees moved in and traded With the development, those trenches were gradually widened into sewers, bricks were laid and houses were built."

   Ye Shi told her these things.

  But her mentor was obviously not very interested in the past of this settlement, so he just said something coldly with a sullen face.

"Too many people."

  Knowing that his mentor doesn't like crowded places, Jiang Xuezhou explained in a low voice.

   "After all, there are more than 100,000 people living in this settlement."

  Yang Kai laughed disapprovingly.

   "A settlement of 100,000 people is actually planned so crowded."

  In contrast, the settlements under the jurisdiction of the Science and Technology Committee are much more scientific.

  People work step by step and accept scientific management. Even a settlement of hundreds of thousands of people will definitely not be so chaotic.

   And most importantly, they eliminate the waste of resources.

  People can efficiently obtain the materials they need, without wasting time on picking and picking, and can spend more time on more meaningful things.

  Jiang Xuezhou liked the excitement here, so he couldn't help but whispered something.

   "Maybe it's because the celebration will be held soon... In fact, there are not so many people on the street."

   "Celebration?"

   "To celebrate the end of the wave, the alliance intends to make this day their statutory holiday... Now is the preparation stage for the celebration. The fireworks display and celebration will be on the third day after the end of the wave, which is the day after tomorrow."

   Jiang Xuezhou whispered.

  Yang Kai frowned, then relaxed for a moment, and gave a pertinent opinion after thinking for a long time.

   "Hmmm... that's definitely something to celebrate."

   To be honest, he didn't expect that the group of wastelanders who relied on the equipment they made together could defeat the brood that the post-war reconstruction committee could not defeat by themselves.

  He who was watching from the sidelines the whole time could hardly believe his eyes.

  Everything that happened here can only be described as a miracle.

   However, regardless of whether this is a miracle or not, it is definitely a big surprise for the academy that cares about the wasteland.

   There are a large number of undeveloped ruins in Qingquan City, which were previously blocked by the slime mold fruiting bodies.

   Among them are not only the pre-war research units, but also various production facilities, as well as the army and aerospace equipment of the People's Federation era.

   Now that the alliance has captured the brood nest in the city center, those resources that were once occupied by slime mold can finally see the light of day again!

  The college is not only full of interest in the alliance's victory over the brood in the city center, but also in the development of Qingquan City.

  Of course, the academy will not want the benefits of the alliance in vain.

  Yang Kai communicated with his superior on the phone, and his superior meant that the "cooperative research and development agreement" could be used as an exchange condition.

  The college will open part of the data to the alliance, support the alliance to develop technology-intensive industries, and upgrade the hardware of various laboratories.

  According to the research and judgment of the Department of Foreign Affairs, for the current alliance, the technical support provided by the academy is more attractive than the economic support provided by the enterprise.

   It is really not possible, it is also possible to transfer several D-level or even C-level technologies.

  As long as the alliance promises, it will not resell these technologies to potential competitors of colleges such as Ideal City or Triumph City.

  In addition to cooperating with matters related to the development of the relics, the senior management of the college also hopes to set up an office in the alliance—the so-called embassy.

  It is like an embassy established by a company in the alliance, which facilitates the timely exchange of opinions between the two sides on southern affairs and the study of mutated slime mold.

  Actually speaking, in principle, diplomatic work is the job of the Department of Foreign Affairs, and this kind of thing should not be handled by him, a member of the Research Department.

  But for a college whose rank is overwhelming, it is only a principle for professional people to do professional things. Of course, Yang Kai will not slip away from his resume with such a large amount of credit for nothing.

   Besides, he has good reasons to convince his superiors.

   First of all, he happened to be near Qingquan City, and secondly, he was still performing support tasks related to the alliance.

  So, after some operations, the entire work that should have belonged to the Department of Foreign Affairs was cut off by the Department of Research.

  For this meeting, Yang Kai is full of confidence. After all, in terms of emotion and reason, he can't think of any reason for the alliance to refuse...

  The two walked along the Central Avenue for a while, and after entering the northern suburb of Qingquan City, they saw the square building not long after.

  The whole building is not high, with only a few floors, but it occupies a large area and is very spacious.

  I heard that most of the time, the managers of the alliance handle official duties in the refuge, and most of the people who work here are ministers at all levels and middle-level and high-level employees of various departments.

   From the bicycles and small eDonkeys filling the parking lot, it is not difficult to see that as the scale of the alliance gradually expands, the corresponding organizational construction is also gradually improving.

  Yang Kai looked up at the sky. Several hummingbird drones were cruising above the building, and the entire area was under the surveillance of the Alliance.

   This is probably the place where the security protection of the entire alliance is the strictest, and its importance to the alliance is self-evident.

  Yang Kai's mouth could not help but curl up a little proudly.

  It seems that just as he expected, the managers of the alliance attached great importance to this meeting, and a bit of smugness could not help but float on their faces.

   Noticing Yang Kai and Jiang Xuezhou standing at the door, the guard standing next to the guard booth on duty stepped forward to give a military salute and asked.

   "Hello, who are you?"

   "College B-level researcher, Yang Kai."

  Yang Kai stretched out his index finger and swiped lightly in the air, pushing the unfolded holographic window in front of the guard, and continued.

   "This is an invitation letter from your manager."

  The guard looked at the holographic window in front of him and was stunned for a moment, but he reacted when he heard his name, and said with a smile.

   "It's Mr. Yang, the manager has told you something, please follow me!"

  Yang Kai nodded in a good mood, then looked at Jiang Xuezhou.

   "Just send me here, you can find a place to pass the time, I will call you when needed."

  This kind of opportunity without any risk and can show their talents, it is too cheap to bring this follower by your side.

  Save that sometimes someone dismantled him, saying that he gave the work to the students under him again, and hid far away by himself.

  Looking at the confident master, Jiang Xuezhou was still a little worried, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice.

   "Do you really not need me to follow?"

   "No need," Yang Kai waved his hand, "I have met that Chu Guang many times, and we can handle it alone."

   After finishing speaking, he looked at the guard.

   "Lead the way ahead."

  The guard said politely.

   "Follow me please!"

  Following the footsteps of the guard, Yang Kai stepped into the Union Building, walked along the spacious corridor for a while, and then walked into a spacious meeting room.

   opened the door of the conference room for him, and after inviting him into the conference room, the guard continued.

   "Our managers are meeting with representatives of the company, please wait a moment."

   "The representative of the enterprise?" Yang Kai was slightly taken aback, frowned, and subconsciously checked the time.

  It is now one forty.

   There are still twenty minutes before their meeting time, and it is true that the agreed time has not yet arrived.

  But what he didn't expect was that the guy wasn't waiting for him in the meeting room, and there was another meeting before him.

   Moreover, it is still a company that has never dealt with the academy.

  The guard nodded, and told him the truth according to the manager's instructions.

"Yes, a lot of things have happened in Qingquan City recently, you should have heard about it. Including the enterprise, the Great Rift Valley, and many survivor forces that are still plagued by mutant slime molds today, the The results are very interesting.”

  Experienced diplomats might not take this bravado to heart, but Yang Kai doesn't have that much diplomatic experience after all. He just felt that the credit that was originally guaranteed was not so stable suddenly, and he couldn't help panicking.

   "What are they talking about?"

  The guard was taken aback for a moment, as if he hadn't expected the guest to ask such a blunt question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

  Yang Kai also gradually realized his subconscious gaffe, coughed lightly, and covered up his gaffe.

   "Nothing... Act like I didn't say it."

   It is undoubtedly impolite and presumptuous to ask a public official of a country about the content of the talks between its high-level officials and a third party.

  Yang Kai cursed himself in his heart, this reckless behavior really shouldn't have happened to him.

  The guard saw his embarrassment, smiled and said for him.

   "It's okay, but your question... I really can't answer it, and I don't understand it. If you are interested, I suggest you ask our administrator."

  Yang Kai touched his nose in embarrassment.

"I will."

  Perhaps it was not a good idea to take this job from the Department of Foreign Affairs, and he suddenly discovered that he was not just not good at handling this kind of situation.

   There is even a little social fear.

  Face-to-face conversation is completely different from communication with the help of holographic images. You can't press the pause button to hang up at any time, drink coffee while thinking about what to say next, and have to deal with embarrassments and accidents that may arise in various situations.

  Yang Kai suddenly regretted that he confidently left his apprentice outside just now.

  If I really screwed up, I don't even have anyone who can blame me...

   Didn't notice Yang Kai's mental activity, the guard then looked at the waiter and nodded, signaling the latter to pour a cup of tea for the researcher, and then exited the door.

  Yang Kai randomly found a seat and sat down, waiting for a full twenty minutes in a nervous mood.

   It was a long time since he saw the manager. Just when he was gradually starting to feel impetuous, footsteps finally came from the corridor outside the conference room.

   Almost exactly at two o'clock, the door of the meeting room opened, and a man in azure blue power armor walked in from the outside.

   It was almost a conditioned reflex, Yang Kai stood up from the seat with a "bass", but overwhelmed the chair with too much force.

  The embarrassment is more than that.

  He blushed and held back for a long time, but the word "Welcome" popped out of his mouth, and Chu Guang, who was about to welcome him, was instantly speechless.

"Cough, it's me who should say welcome..." Seeing that face getting redder and redder, Chu Guang coughed lightly, and said in a joking tone, "Welcome to the alliance, I hope I didn't keep you waiting. In addition, Take it easy, although this may be the first time we've met face to face, we've probably met many times before."

   By the way, are all the researchers in the academy so individual?

  Chu Guang couldn't help thinking of Li Ke who was paying New Year's greetings at the gate of Falcon City...

  This guy's reckless appearance simply overturned the inscrutable impression he had left in his heart before.

Or…

  Is he just not good at "offline" communication?

  The waiter on the side wanted to laugh but didn't dare, walked forward sullenly, and quietly helped the researcher up the chair.

  Yang Kai nodded stiffly, watching Chu Guang force a smile on his face.

"really…"

   Walking to the conference table, Chu Guang pulled out his exclusive seat and sat down, watching the visiting researcher on behalf of the college continue talking.

   "Then, since it's not the first time we've dealt with each other, don't waste time on red tape and get straight to the point."

  Yang Kai nodded his head, and said with care like gold, as if they were two people in the holographic image.

"I think so too."

   After finishing speaking, he stretched out his index finger and swiped lightly in the air to unfold the holographic screen, then took out a projection pen from his pocket and placed it on the table.

"Qingquan City is the Qingquan City of the People's Federation, and its heritage should belong to all descendants of the People's Federation. We hope to send a scientific research team ranging from 50 to 100 people to Qingquan City for a long-term stay. The relics are conducting observational research. Those relics and the harvest in the relics belong to you, and at the same time, the digital data we obtained will be copied to you..."

   After saying these words in one breath, Yang Kai thought for a while to make sure there were no omissions, then took a deep breath and continued.

   "In addition, we will send a research team to you to provide you with some assistance in the technical field, and help you purchase some professional research equipment... These are all included in the scientific research cooperation agreement in front of you."

   While Yang Kai was giving a brief introduction to the agreement, Chu Guang was browsing the documents on the holographic screen while observing the expression on his face through the holographic screen.

   To be honest, this guy is a real amateur in diplomacy.

   But thinking that he is the leader of the research department after all, diplomacy is not his business scope, and it is not incomprehensible for him to be an amateur.

  Under normal circumstances, everyone asks for the price first, and then takes a step back to negotiate the terms. However, he was just the opposite, as if he was deeply afraid that he would refuse, first he talked about the big reason, and then he put all the chips on the table.

  Honestly speaking, the chips he placed were really attractive, and Chu Guang admitted that his heart was already moved when he heard half of what he said.

  However, his behavior is equivalent to throwing his bulging wallet on the counter, and telling the boss how much money is up to you.

  Seeing the agreement to the end, Chu Guang suppressed the urge to smile knowingly, coughed lightly, and spoke.

   "...We attach great importance to the relationship with you, and we are very interested in the scientific research cooperation agreement you mentioned."

  Hearing Chu Guang's words, Yang Kai was overjoyed, thinking that his worries were unnecessary. However, before he could relax completely, Chu Guang changed the subject again and continued.

   "However, we have objections to some terms in the agreement."

  Hearing this vague wording, Yang Kai suddenly became nervous.

   "What objection? Say it."

  Chu Guang flicked his index finger in the air, moved the holographic screen aside, looked straight into his eyes, and continued.

"Qingquan City is the Qingquan City of the People's Federation. Its heritage should belong to all mankind, but we are the actual controllers of it, and we are the ones who solve the problem. You ask us to share the sacrifices of the survivors of Qingquan City. Isn't the result a bit unkind?"

   Seeing the displeased expression on Chu Guang's face, especially those eyes, Yang Kai panicked and quickly explained.

"I didn't ask you for the ruins of Qingquan City. I said that it was just an observational investigation, and the ownership of the ruins still belongs to you! And we understand your efforts, so we are willing to give you some help in the field of technology recovery. Not gratuitously—”

"This is where I have objections," Chu Guang looked at him and continued, "You mentioned in the agreement that you will send at least one hundred researchers to Camp 101 to set up a branch of the academy to conduct research with our researchers. Communication, but one-way open communication is not really communication in my opinion."

  Yang Kai was stunned.

  He didn't expect Chu Guang to raise objections on this matter.

   After all, the Buguera Free State begged them to send people to assist their research, but they didn't agree. As a result, now that they proposed it on their own initiative, the alliance actually...has objections?

"What's the meaning…"

  Looking at the bewildered Yang Kai, Chu Guang continued with a cheeky face.

"The scale of communication is completely in your hands, isn't it? Even if you send some fake researchers over, we have nothing to do. Including those research equipment, we don't expect you to transfer the most advanced instruments to us, but if you Take some leftovers from the weeding out—"

   "How could we do that kind of thing!" Yang Kai blushed and interrupted Chu Guang's ordinary words,

   It was just his voice, but he had no confidence.

   To be honest, it is really possible for the people from the Department of Foreign Affairs to do this kind of thing. After all, it is a credit for saving costs for the college.

  The college's promotion system determines that most middle-level and even high-level researchers will be more inclined to make short-term benefits when making decisions.

  If the academy can achieve their dream of ascension within a hundred years, there is nothing wrong with doing so.

  However, Chu Guang didn't want to be taken advantage of.

   He has always been the only one who cut off other people's leeks, so why should it be cut off on his head?

   "I didn't say you guys would do this, but we gotta make sure it doesn't happen, don't we?"

  Seeing that Yang Kai could not refute, Chu Guang continued patiently.

"This problem is actually very easy to solve. We have some academies inside—cough, I mean people who know the academies. I hope that we can improve the details of the agreement. For example, the types and models of the equipment that will be transferred The parameters and the most critical prices are all listed in a specific list, so as to ensure that you don't suddenly realize that there is a batch of equipment that needs to be cleared, and then deal with it to us who don't need it at all.”

  Yang Kai bit the bullet and nodded.

"Row…"

  This request is not very excessive.

  If the alliance wants some instruments that they cannot provide, such as research equipment related to graviton research and FTL engines, at most it should be explicitly rejected in the agreement.

   At least this list is talkable!

  Chu Guang smiled and nodded, and continued to talk.

   "The other one is the personnel issue I mentioned just now."

"Of course we agree with the freedom of academic exchanges, but this kind of communication should be mutual, not unilateral... In addition to sending some people to us from your side, we also want to send some people to you to communicate. "

  Yang Kai was slightly taken aback, and immediately said.

   "This is impossible! Only researchers can enter the academy! Other survivors are most active in the settlements of the Science Committee! It is impossible for us to design a separate system for you...Don't go too far!"

  The college implements the K and G points system, and the college includes the most basic transportation and even the acquisition of daily necessities are inseparable from these two scores.

   There is no room for outsiders to survive in the academy.

  Although Chu Guang thinks this is not a difficult task, in his opinion, the big deal is to change it, and add a special status of "diplomatic personnel" to the original system.

   As for the resources consumed, the alliance will pay for it.

  However, seeing Yang Kai's resolute expression, Chu Guang knew that there would be no results if he persisted in this matter.

  So, Chu Guang also made some small concessions.

   "Then let's take a step back. Our personnel will not enter the interior of the college, but conduct academic exchanges with you in the colony under the management of the Science and Technology Committee...Of course, this must be a colony designated by us."

  The talents of the college are not completely cultivated in the college, and there are also a few settlements that undertake businesses such as sorting of cultural relics and data processing.

  The standard of living in these settlements is usually higher, and life is not as economical as other settlements. And because they can get in touch with the core business of the college, many children have been exposed to it since childhood, and the proportion of prospectors and researchers born will be much higher than that of other settlements.

  Many family members of middle-level researchers of the college live in these settlements, as a workaround for the inability to allow them to live directly in the college.

   This is what Chu Guang heard from Yin Fang, and what he saw was the potential of these settlements. If he could send people from the alliance to study, not only would he be able to help him train a group of proficient prospectors and even researchers, but he might even be able to lure a few inexperienced people over.

  The more Chu Guang thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was too crazy.

   As for being abducted?

nonexistent.

   The attraction of the Wandering Swamp will not be greater than that of the Ideal City.

  Chu Guang knows exactly what those researchers really need. If someone is really abducted, it means that guy is not suitable for the alliance.

  Let's go, let's go.

  Yang Kai thought for a moment, then said with difficulty.

   "This is against the rules... Some settlements are not open to the public. It is impossible for you to go to any settlement, we will let you in."

  Expecting that he would say that, Chu Guang said happily with a springy smile on his face.

   "Then it's up to us to jointly designate this settlement. We can establish a special zone in the Wandering Swamp."

  Hearing this word for the first time, Yang Kai froze for a moment.

   "SAR?"

"That's right," Chu Guang nodded, and continued with a smile, "The researchers we sent to visit are only active in the special zone, and communicate with your researchers in the special zone... Don't think I'm joking, you better not It's better to underestimate our ruins excavation technology, we have also recovered a lot of ruins over the years, we can learn from each other.”

  Yang Kai curled his lips in his heart, and didn't take that sentence of learning from each other seriously.

  The Academy has been studying the field of relic recovery for more than two hundred years, and has been digging and arching in the ruins that have been turned over. He doesn't think the Alliance has anything worth learning from them.

   But Chu Guang's words moved him.

   After all, this request does not sound too much.

  The settlements under the Science Committee are not the core areas of the college. Even if some settlements are home to the families of researchers and there are research facilities directly under the college, those research facilities are only engaged in non-core areas of work.

  Thinking of this, Yang Kai nodded.

   "Okay... I don't think there is any problem, but I have to discuss this matter with my superiors."

  Looking at Yang Kai, who was still strongly opposed one second, and turned 180 degrees the next second, Chu Guang couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

   Even though he expected that this guy had no reason to refuse, he didn't expect this guy to agree so quickly.

  The matter is over.

  Yang Kai stood up and said goodbye, and hurriedly left the meeting room with his projection pen, as if escaping from this place.

  Looking at the back of Yang Kai disappearing at the door, Chu Guang couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

   Didn't expect the researchers of the academy to be surprisingly easy to get along with?

  The work is clean and neat, much more refreshing than the dilly-dallying board of directors.

   It seems that I misunderstood them?

   Just as Chu Guang was thinking so, there were hurried footsteps outside the door of the conference room. After a while, an unexpected face appeared at the door.

  Looking at old Charlie who appeared at the door, Chu Guang, who was in a good mood, pushed away his chair and got up, walked towards him with a smile.

   "What brought you here?"

  Old Charlie still serves as the president of the Merchant Union.

  Although the Merchant Union is a directly affiliated organization of the Alliance, it is more service-oriented than administrative. Therefore, the office is not located in the Alliance Building, but has a separate building, which is located in the former site of the outpost on the edge of Linghu.

   There was a time when Chu Guang's office was still there.

   "...Don't worry about the wind, you should read this first." With an anxious expression on his face, old Charlie stuffed a newspaper into Chu Guang's hand.

  Chu Guang took the newspaper and looked at it twice. When he saw the bold and enlarged headline, his eyebrows raised involuntarily.

  《Qingquan City's brood has not fallen! He was secretly kept in captivity by the manager! "

   Below the title is a line of subtitles—

  【Qingquan City Daily will reveal to you the shocking conspiracy hidden in the East District of Qingquan City! 】

   (The eyes are dry and itchy, like sand has entered. I am probably in the state of typing with one eye open and one eye closed. T.T)
