I have a magical world

Chapter 284 I admit that I spoke a bit loudly just now [Please subscribe]

In fact, Chen Xuan understands.

The passive power armor he requested did have considerable design difficulties.

This is especially true if you want to ensure the flexibility of the structure.

The flexibility here does not only refer to normal up and down movements, but also activities that can approximate human joints and postures.

At present, it is a problem for the mechanical mechanism to fully flexibly simulate human postures across the entire Blue Star.

Previously, Boston Dynamics of Bald Eagle had done a better job in this area. Their robot was the first to achieve single-legged and standing jumping, running, obstacle avoidance and climbing, and self-balancing.

Although the video released has a certain editing effect.

But the flexibility of movement is already quite smooth.

This is the knowledge of mechanical design.

Of course, it is also related to the fact that Boston Dynamics uses a hydraulic assist system, which is more explosive than traditional motor assist.

But no matter what, if you want to keep the mechanical structure as smooth as possible, there are design problems in itself.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan said that power was not needed, which reduced the difficulty a lot. Otherwise, while designing, the power system would have to be preset.

But even so, it is indeed not easy to achieve what Chen Xuan requires.

As for the individual soldier exoskeleton that had been researched and distributed more than ten years ago, it was completely unrelated to the passive power armor he requested.

Mechanical exoskeletons originated from early attempts by people to invent mechanical devices made of steel frames that could be worn by humans, inspired by beetles.

It is also commonly called "Powered exoskeleton".

It is essentially a wearable robot.

It generally includes three parts: complete machine design, driver (mechanism) design, and control strategy; the "control strategy" is the real-time human-computer interaction and control, which is the core difficulty.

But it is not armor, but a human body assist system.

It is designed to enhance the functionality of the human body, including strength, terrain crossing ability, etc.

Today, Blue Star's research and application of mechanical exoskeletons mainly focuses on two types, namely the augmented type and the auxiliary type.

At present, both Xia Guo and Bald Eagle have been issued practical models.

Xia Guo's mechanical exoskeleton started earlier, almost at the same time as the large drones, so the technology is relatively advanced.

But this does not meet Chen Xuan's requirements.

In the final analysis, it is because the mechanical exoskeleton is not flexible enough.

Most of the current mechanical exoskeletons are used on the logistics side.

Secondly, the exoskeleton is just a framework. Expanding its main body is far more technically difficult than Chen Xuan directly asking people to design a set of wearable and flexible armor.

Therefore, he can understand why Hongyu Heavy Industry failed.

Because his requirements do present considerable design difficulties.

Although it can be done with the current technical reserves of Xia Guo Machinery Design.

But it takes more effort.

Design fees of one million are also normal.

But what made him angry was the attitude of Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping who fooled him.

It can be said that it is difficult, and it is no problem to add money.

The price was set by the other party, and the promise was made by the other party, but in the end they chose to mess it up.

This is what Chen Xuan is dissatisfied with.

"Do you really think of me as a piglet?"

He suddenly sneered.

He immediately calmed down his emotions, took out his cell phone again, and dialed the other party's number again.

After half a minute, Zhang Youpan answered the phone slightly impatiently.

"Didn't I say that?"

"Go to legal channels. Once the contract is signed, this matter will no longer be under the control of the sales department."

Zhang Youpan's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Chen Xuan raised the corners of his mouth and said in an unhurried tone.

"Sorry, Commissioner Zhang."

"I admit I spoke a little too loudly just now."

"Well, I'm willing to pay a seven-figure design fee."

"Why don't we come out now and talk about the details."

"Call Mr. Li over here, and the three of us will find a place to have a drink. For tens of thousands of dollars, there's no point in talking about a lawsuit."

Chen Xuan's attitude changed suddenly.

However, Zhang Youpan was a little unexpected.

"this…"

"Oh well."

"It seems you are indeed sincere."

Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.

After Zhang Youpan thought for a while, he agreed.

As for the possibility of fraud, he never thought about it.

What era is it now?

This is Tianhai City, and the other party is not going to do anything to them for tens of thousands of dollars.

Year-round urban life and a relatively stable environment have long diluted people's sense of crisis.

Consider possible future cooperation.

And Chen Xuan's sincere attitude.

He decided to ask Li Jianping to go to the appointment again.

If the other party is really willing to pay enough design fees, then this business is not out of the question.

Hongyu Heavy Industry still has to rely on its performance to speak for itself.

As long as the order volume is large enough, performance bonuses will be increased, multi-department cooperation or even working overtime to design for him will not be a problem.

It was precisely because of this consideration that Zhang Youpan chose to agree to meet.

The two parties agreed to meet in a tavern in Dingjia District.

After hanging up the phone, the smile on Chen Xuan's face did not diminish at all.

He admitted that he had spoken loudly just now, but later, Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping would know who was the bully.

After getting up and tidying up his clothes, Chen Xuan walked into the bathroom and simply poured a handful of warm water on his face.

Then he put the key in his pocket and looked back at Ahn'Qiraj, who was nestling on the couch like a kitten.

"I'm going out."

"Maybe I won't come back until later."

Upon hearing his words, Ahn'Qiraj quickly stood up.

"Master, can you take me with you?"

He is about to leave Blue Star and return to Naroa.

She still wants to see as much of the world as possible.

After hearing her words, Chen Xuan thought for a moment and finally agreed.

It doesn't hurt to bring Ahn'Qiraj with you.

As a fourth-level spellcaster of both thunder and fire elements.

The extraordinary power she possesses is terrifying enough even in Blue Star.

After getting Chen Xuan's consent.

She quickly ran into the bathroom with her clothes.

After walking out again, Ahn'Qiraj changed her pajamas into a black dress.

She wore a storage necklace and bracelets on her neck and wrists respectively, which now became the best decorations.

The Void Stone can slowly change color under the illumination of light, cycling between purple and gray.

This kind of color light and shadow does not change quickly, so it does not appear abrupt, but only looks beautiful.

After changing her clothes, Ahn'Qiraj looks like a cute mage who has just grown up.

The premise is that her real age is not taken into account.

But if you look at it in terms of life span, she is indeed just an adult now.

For example, for dwarves, the standard for adulthood is forty years old.

Different life spans and different growth cycles naturally lead to different definitions of age.

For Blue Star people, whose average life span is seventy or eighty years old.

Ahn'Qiraj is already considered a middle-aged man in his thirties.

But compared to her life span of two to three hundred years, there is no difference between being in her thirties and just becoming an adult.

He naturally held Ahn'Qiraj's delicate little hand.

The two held hands and walked out the door.

It was around nine o'clock in the evening.

The community is relatively quiet, and there isn't much nightlife here.

But it's different after going out.

The restaurant street opposite the community is still busy.

Especially restaurants such as barbecue restaurants, lobster restaurants, and grilled fish restaurants that are suitable for drinking and chatting while eating are extremely noisy.

Occasionally, you can see a few naked burly men walking out of the restaurant with their arms around each other.

Cars hurriedly passed by on the road.

There are always people busy in this city.

The street lamps cast shadows on the ground.

Holding Ahn'Qiraj in hand, Chen Xuan found the car parked outside the community and drove to the agreed upon location.

…

At the same time, someone got on the back seat of a taxi.

Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping sat together.

Both of them are veterans of the company.

We have been working together for several years.

They have seen many strange clients over the years.

But people like Chen Xuan are still the first.

Passive power armor?

It makes no sense when you think about it.

However, the essence of the contract signed a few days ago was that they were not interested.

The quotation given is caused by irregularities.

This makes the design department simply unable to meet the other party's requirements.

According to management, it is inevitable that it will be ruined.

Anyway, behind Hongyu Heavy Industry is the prefix "国".

Enjoy local protection policies.

Known as Tianhai Pizza Hut, it doesn't have big lawsuits and doesn't care about small lawsuits. This is the current situation.

The workplace mechanism with the prefix Guo determines everything.

That's why they appear confident.

"Gong Li, do you think there really is such a fool?"

"What kind of passive power armor are you willing to spend millions of design fees on?"

Zhang Youpan put his hands behind his head and asked casually.

Li Jianping, who was wearing glasses, nodded.

"Based on the current technical reserves and open source patents, his request can be realized."

"But this is no simple design task."

"A project team needs to be established."

"The main thing is the so-called passive power armor, which must not only maintain the flexibility of the mechanical mechanism, but also have both defensive power and scalability. This is equivalent to indirectly having practical value."

"Of course, trying to make it work without a power source is undoubtedly a pipe dream."

“The core difficulty is always the source of motivation.”

"Whether it is an electric motor or a hydraulic drive, the pipeline and power section must be reserved during design."

"But he doesn't have this requirement. Even if it is designed, it will be difficult to install a power unit later."

Li Jianping, who has an engineering background, thinks more about its operability.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Youpan immediately raised his eyebrows.

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have given him such a low offer. Maybe I would have just negotiated a big contract."

A design fee worth millions is not considered a small order for any machinery company.

And this does not include subsequent production and manufacturing.

According to Chen Xuan's requirements, there is a high probability that the customization route will be taken.

Then the price of a single customization is definitely not much cheaper. Depending on the material, the price ranges from 100,000 to hundreds of thousands.

Customize ten or eight sets at will, plus the design fee, this is a business with a total value of over 10 million.

In response, Li Jianping yawned and shrugged without any guilt.

"Who knows if he is serious."

"Like tonight, he might not finalize it."

Li Jianping said casually.

He never thought that Chen Xuan's deal could be successful.

Because it is too nonsense.

Li Jiansheng had this attitude from the time he first came into contact with Chen Xuan.

He has no interest in personal cases and is only interested in enterprise-level orders.

Zhang Youpan felt a headache every time he went out to negotiate contracts with him.

And the reason this guy told him in private was that he couldn't stand the faces of those private upstarts.

Relying on the characteristics of the company, this is not the first time he has done this.

The vast majority of private clients will choose to consider themselves out of luck.

The few who are serious will ask the company's legal department to come forward.

To put it bluntly, the purpose of maintaining a legal department is to solve these bullshit matters.

Even if someone comes to the company to complain, it can be easily resolved by relying on blame and kicking.

The company doesn't pay much attention to this, even though it claims to put customers first.

However, social customers are still divided into several levels.

There is a big difference between large customers with annual orders exceeding tens of millions and small customers with hundreds of thousands.

The main thing is to show off.

After the capitalization of the prefix Guo, such things are not uncommon.

The chain of contempt exists from top to bottom.

Chen Xuan just happened to encounter such a thing.

Of course, this is also directly related to Zhang Heng's inadequate business ability.

If he could better communicate with Zhang Youpan and others in advance, such conflicts might not arise.

But no matter what, that’s it.

For Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping, this is not a big deal.

Sitting in the taxi, they went to the appointment calmly.

I fully thought that Chen Xuan must be pleading diligently.

It’s the uncle who spends the money. This concept is reversed here at Hongyu Heavy Industry.

About half an hour later, they arrived at the agreed upon location.

Chen Xuan had already arrived with Ahn'Qiraj and booked a private room facing the street.

Instead of drinking, he asked for a small glass of sweet water.

As for Ahn'Qiraj, there were no taboos. I just had a glass of salty dog ​​that was quite strong.

The base alcohol content of this thing is very high, and it is often referred to as the "lost virginity wine".

But it's nothing to Ahn'Qiraj.

The weak physique of the Naroya spell caster is only compared to that of the gold-level magic practitioners of the same level.

Compared to ordinary people in Blue Star, her physique is still that of a monster.

The private room number was sent to Zhang Youpan in advance.

Chen Xuan drank some sweet water while chatting with Yang Renyong.

He has to go to Hangzhou in a few days to deal with the batch of engineering vehicles and photovoltaic energy storage power supplies ordered by Yang Renyong.

Except for Lanna Trading Co., Ltd., which is about to get on the right track.

Qianjiang Bicycle Factory was his second secret move.

Many supplies can not only be disbursed by Lanner Trading Company.

It can even be solved by Yang Renyong.

This can share hidden risks to a certain extent.

While he was playing with his mobile phone, the private room door was opened.

Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping walked in one after another wearing casual clothes.

Different from the arrogant attitude on the phone.

The real Zhang Youpan had a smile on his face and looked extremely polite.

"Mr. Chen."

After seeing the two of them, Chen Xuan stood up and showed a bright smile.

…
