Blooming America

Chapter 96: Beep kid



Sanders prepared the materials and got into the car.

   There are already three people in the car. However, the person in this car is not a member of the company, nor is it a bodyguard of the umbrella.

  They are the CIA.

   Sanders will also go to the Pentagon this time to elaborate on the report on "multifunctional personal computers for individual combat."

   Of course, it also has a simple name-Beep Boy 1000.

   And this name was taken by Catherine.

   In fact, most of the contents of this report in Sanders's hand were completed by Catherine, and what Sanders had to do was to win the trust of the Pentagon.

   Actually the Pentagon's money is very easy to cheat. For example, in the future Lockheed Martin's RQ-170 drone. When Catherine crossed, the research and development cost was 60 billion US dollars, and it was still growing.

   60 billion US dollars in the 21st century, what concept? You can finish the 2 Manhattan Projects from scratch!

   As a glorious Pentagon supplier, if you say that you have not cheated or hacked the Pentagon’s money, you are embarrassed to participate in the Pentagon’s tender.

   Isn’t that the case?

   Do not lie to one's own country's arms dealer is not a good arms dealer.

   This is also a true portrayal of being a supplier to the Pentagon.

   Sanders didn't plan to, and didn't dare to pit the Pentagon.

  All he has to do now is to try to squeeze a little bit from the budget allocated to the various companies by the Pentagon-that's a lot-Sanders is satisfied.

   Before entering the Pentagon, Sanders was taken in front of a metal detector, and then scanned all over his body. After it was determined that Sanders could not carry any "weapons of mass destruction", he was put in.

   Sanders was led to the door of the conference room, his equipment and materials had been sorted out, and the CIA had also prepared a slide projector for him.

   This is the second time he has come, but he is still a little nervous.

   He took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked in.

   "Good afternoon, gentlemen, I am very happy to see you again."

   Then, Sanders began to get into the topic.

   He turned on the slide projector, and then, a picture appeared on the white wall.

   This picture shows the appearance of an American soldier, but compared with the current soldier, this strange thing wears a lot of things.

   "This is our company... To be precise, this should be the conceptual combat design of the future soldiers built by the cooperation between Intel and the umbrella."

   Sanders began to introduce.

   "In our concept, the soldiers of the future will have three-color camouflage uniforms, helmets, windshields, tactical vests, bulletproof vests, etc., with a total weight of 40 to 70 pounds of equipment."

   "But what does this have to do with your company's products? What we want to understand is the impact of personal computers on war."

   Sanders nodded.

   In fact, the Pentagon has already studied this for a long time, otherwise, he would not be so interested in Beep Boy.

   Apple’s efforts in computer miniaturization are clearly ahead of other manufacturers, and it is precisely because of this that they will be valued by the Pentagon. After the appearance of the concept equipment of the Beep Boy, he became even more interested in it.

   Catherine knew this was a trend.

   After all, even in the future, American soldiers will also have IPAD as conventional equipment—although it is only in some units, this technology similar to the Beep Boy is indeed a kind of foresight in the future. It is understandable that the Pentagon noticed this.

   "Yes. The soldiers of the future will definitely be completely different in the modern era with the advancement of science and technology. They will have more powerful abilities—"

   Then, Sanders changed a picture. In the picture, there was an American soldier lurking in the jungle.

   "Soldiers need to adapt to all kinds of combat. And our beep boy can help them better adapt to the surrounding environment."

"According to our conceptual design, Beep Boy will have a new type of portable radar that can scan and record the surrounding data to form a perfect topographic map. This way, even in some places where the aircraft is inconvenient to enter. , We can also get enough information. And its personal radar also has a good role in determining targets. It can carry out long-distance communication, change combat objectives and combat missions at any time on the battlefield, and the soldiers are like face-to-face communication. Even at night, the Beep Boy’s personal identification device can easily distinguish between friend and foe. At the same time, Beep Boy also has a physical condition monitoring device, which will monitor the physical condition of the soldiers at any time and keep them At its best."

   They nodded, and Sanders drew a good pie.

   "What should I do about energy problems? What should I do if there is a sudden loss of power?"

   someone asked again.

"This is also a problem we need to solve. Although our company does not have research on this aspect, we believe that high-performance lithium batteries will become the future trend. Lithium batteries have no battery effect and are used for a long time. And more importantly-it is very light. A lithium battery the size of our palm can support the entire machine for several days. If the battery pack is worn, it can be used for a month without shutting down during the continuous march. Time. The Beep Boy’s battery pack can be placed in a tactical backpack and is easy to carry."

   "But in the movie, Beep Boy doesn't have to worry about battery power at all."

   An official who had watched "Wasteland" said something humorously.

   "Yes, because in the future of the movie, we are conceiving miniaturized nuclear energy equipment, miniaturized nuclear batteries-this is also the future trend."

   Then, Sanders introduced again.

"Beep Boy is also an identification device. It can record the soldiers' situation and position on the battlefield. In this way, they can easily determine whether the soldiers are fighting or hiding behind the team timidly. I won’t lie. What's more, the Beep Boy will adopt encryption settings, and the password can be changed at any time. UU看书www.uukanshu.com like this, even if it is obtained by the enemy, this is just a brick and it has no effect at all... Oh, it can still be used to smash people."

   Sanders finally made a humorous sentence, but the person on the other side couldn't help but laugh.

"At present, our Intel company is working on a new type of CPU. The central processing unit is the core of the entire beep kid. As for radar, body detection equipment, etc., although our company has this concept, we are not an enterprise that is researching in this area. , But in our own part, I believe that Beep Boy’s plan can be completed within 10 to 20 years... If we have sufficient funds and scientific researchers, the time will be improved sooner."

   What Sanders said can indeed be achieved, but in 10 years...this is indeed drawing a cake.

   But listening to the discussion on the other side, Sanders has the bottom line.

   Although in the end, they still didn't make a judgment on the Beep boy, but they did seem to be moved.

   In the last report, Sanders has explained the military applications of Intel semiconductors and personal computers.

   The convenience of radar, real-time information, precise missile guidance, the advantages of electronic warfare, etc.

   And this time, Sanders told them about Beep Boy, which is a problem they really value.

   However, one of the most important issues, they still did not discuss, that is-funding. After all, it is impossible to equip every soldier with a beep kid. That's all money.

  Many projects were shot for this reason, and Sanders regretted it.

  ...

   One year and one year have been raised, I can only say that you have surpassed the realm of brutality...
