Chapter 492 A Heavy Hammer

Yue Gengyang was stunned when he heard Feng Yi's answer.

Ji Fan, who was processing documents nearby, also looked up.

The couple was indeed surprised by Feng Yi's choice. After all, Feng Yi had always supported the Butterfly Project before. Feng Chi also had Feng Yi in mind when filming the variety show "Survivor".

"Why?" Yue Gengyang was curious about the reason for Feng Yi's change of attitude.

"I'm a little worried." Feng Yi said.

After the cyclone became larger, the problems that were originally easy to ignore were magnified and exposed in the process of meteorological weapons attacking the cyclone.

This time Feng Yi saw it clearly.

The project team did not calculate energy matter.

Energy matter can affect astronomical phenomena!

Feng Yi, who grew and developed by relying on this energy matter and "called the wind and rain", knew too well what changes it could bring!

"This weapon is not mature yet and needs to be tested and improved in the open ocean. If we quickly move to the next step and conduct offshore tests, if we are unlucky, it may develop in the opposite direction. It may develop to a very serious degree."

Yue Gengyang found that when Feng Yi said these words, he was not emotionally entangled in doubts, but was very calm and sure. Perhaps, this is not speculation, but a statement of fact.

Although the Butterfly Project team brings together the world's top talents, Yue Gengyang still trusts Feng Yi more in this matter.

While they were talking, others were also discussing tomorrow's voting meeting.

In the building where the Joint Security Bureau and some project-related personnel are temporarily staying.

"The exercise was a great success. We can see the results at tomorrow's meeting!"

"But there will be doubts."

"Doubts? The Butterfly Project was established amid doubts. Haven't we faced enough doubts along the way?"

"Doubts are doubts, but the final choice is another matter. For example, Raymond doesn't like this project, but that doesn't stop him from voting in favor."

"The ancestor factory should also be in favor. I don't know Ji Fan, but Yue Gengyang is a person who knows how to judge the situation. And Feng Yi, the expert certified by the Joint Guarantee Bureau, who he brought with him, has a positive attitude of support from the beginning."

"Well, as long as the important parties can vote in favor, there will be no problem."

In another building slightly closer to Feng Yi and the others.

This is where the national team members rest.

In a room on a certain floor, an old man took the tea handed by his grandson and looked at the secretary who came in.

The secretary reported: "We have received the intention of domestic entrepreneurs, most of them agree..."

Whether they agree or reject, at least their intentions have been determined.

"But, Mr. Yue from the ancestor factory has not responded yet."

The old man's eyes fixed: "Yue Gengyang has not responded yet?"

I thought the ancestor factory was clearly in favor, but now it seems... there is a change.

After thinking about it, the old man looked at the time and asked the secretary to go to the building where the ancestor factory team was located to talk to Yue Gengyang in person.

The control in the base is now a little looser than before, but it still restricts free movement. However, such restrictions apply to most guests, and they are not among them.

The secretary did not leave for too long and came back soon.

The old man was a little surprised.

He came back so soon, did he not talk much?

"When I went there, Mr. Yue and his internal people were also in a meeting. Mr. Yue came out to talk to me for a while. They are likely to vote against it."

The secretary relayed the conversation at that time and handed over a note: "This is written by Mr. Yue."

The old man put on his glasses, took the note and unfolded it——

[Be cautious and do not miss the time. Don't plan for good fortune before it's too late, and don't worry about disasters before they happen. 】

The old man looked at the note and frowned without saying anything.

The young man next to him was a little curious, and the old man motioned him to come over: "What can you see?"

The young man was brought here as an accompanying person by his family elders to broaden his horizons, and he also knew Mr. Yue of the ancestor factory.

He looked at the words on the note, thought for a moment, and said: "Just looking at the literal meaning, it is a reminder to be cautious and prevent trouble before it happens. Does Mr. Yue think that this matter is more harmful than beneficial?"

The old man shook his head slightly, but did not answer directly.

The young man couldn't tell whether his grandfather agreed, but he could see that the old man seemed to be a little confused. I don't know if it's about tomorrow's voting meeting, or about Yue Gengyang himself?

The next day.

The guests went to the venue.

Only those who really accepted the invitation have the right to vote at this meeting, and the accompanying personnel are not included.

Although their attitude will not directly determine the direction of the Butterfly Project, it will affect the follow-up.

The joint committee composed of important members of the Butterfly Project project team and representatives of member countries will refer to the results of this vote and make the final decision.

If the opposition is too strong, the joint committee may reject the project team's decision to immediately proceed to the next stage of the test.

The voting meeting has a limit on the number of people, and each invited person can only bring two more people to participate.

Although two people were invited from the original factory, there were still only three people attending the meeting - Yue Gengyang and his wife plus Feng Yi.

Generally speaking, the invited person will bring an assistant secretary who is a part-time translator, a bodyguard or a senior consultant, and two people will be selected according to actual needs.

The combination of the original factory is indeed surprising.

What do Yue Gengyang and his wife think?

Is it too childish for such an occasion, or is it too pampering for this junior?

Even if he brings a junior to gain experience, he has already seen the scene of the actual combat drill yesterday, so let him participate in an occasion like this today?

To be honest, even my own son cannot enjoy such treatment!

Moreover, except for Feng Yi, Yue Gengyang and his wife did not bring any other assistants or consultants. With their status, it is okay to bring one or two more.

Does this mean that the Ancestral Factory does not pay too much attention to this voting meeting and is just a formality?

Feng Yi followed Yue Gengyang into the auditorium and sat down at the assigned seat.

Only three of them came today and did not bring anyone else. Yue Gengyang considered that there might be some communication with Feng Yi during the meeting that would be inconvenient for outsiders to hear.

Since Ancestral Factory is not an investor, it is not in the front row.

The seats are not the seats in a traditional venue, but fan-shaped areas, the kind with desks and chairs, which are also separated from other people.

There is also an electronic voting machine on the table. You can press your choice, and you can also check who has voted and which choice you have made.

Soon, the meeting began.

The speaker delivers a speech.

He introduced the establishment of the project to the present, the atmosphere and ocean array, and the satellite network in the sky.

The general functions of the Butterfly Project satellite network were introduced, as well as the project team's measures to deal with accidents. Each satellite corresponds to a replacement satellite, and in the event of failure, it will be replaced as soon as possible.

At the same time, he also emphasized that the abnormal climate periods experienced in the past are just warnings for the planet. The sixth mass extinction is about to come, or has already arrived. It may be a long process, or it may occur in a more intense way. Humanity needs to be fully prepared.

Only by mastering enough technology can humans survive such a disaster.

Project Butterfly has taken a critical step, a very successful step. Next, we plan to enter the next phase of trials, and we are very eager to get everyone's support.

This meeting is fair, just and open.

The results of this voting are very important, so please cast your vote carefully!

The spokesperson is also reminding some opponents that even if you are opposed to it, you must consider the actual interests.

The meteorological weapons developed today have been tested many times in the ocean, and everyone has seen the success of actual combat exercises. Therefore, the project team is considering conducting the next phase of testing, which may be closer to land.

Being close to the land means entering people's field of vision and affecting the lives of many people.

In this regard, some guests agreed and some opposed.

Agreeing Party -

Further bold experiments can be carried out during active storm seasons, which is conducive to the improvement of the project.

Opponent:

Is this decision too radical? Whether there are still many defects and hidden crises, the test cannot be carried out directly in areas close to people's lives to avoid uncontrollable situations.

The spokesman said that he understood everyone's concerns and that safety was basically controllable. Prior to this, there had been a heated debate within the project team and the joint committee, and they were inclined to enter the next stage of experimentation.

The rapid advancement of the project has advantages and disadvantages, but if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, it is worth doing!

"This is a great project. We have built an ark that can protect ourselves! Even if the abnormal weather period returns, we don't have to worry about being beaten without the ability to fight back. We are confident enough..."

As the meeting progressed, questions and answers continued, and the real-time number of voters was displayed on the screen in front.

More and more people are voting, but still less than one-third make the decision.

At this time, Feng Yi saw someone asking a question in front of him and also asked a sensitive question.

"It is undeniable that this is indeed an amazing and great project, and I admire it very much. At the same time, I would like to ask, will such a weapon be used in the military? Military cooperation will definitely affect war, which is the key to future technological development. Inevitable? Or is it the beginning of mankind’s destruction?”

Project side: "Please rest assured that we have established a reliable security system, and the joint committee will supervise this. In terms of military..."

Feng Yi did not pay all his attention to the Q&A in the venue. The person who asked the question just now was arranged by the project team.

Feng Yi has been observing several other important personnel related to the Butterfly Project. He does not know those people, but he can judge the inner reactions of those people based on their emotional information.

During the speaker's opening speech, an engineer lowered his eyes. Although his face seemed to be smiling with confidence and honor, his true emotions were not like that. When certain keywords were involved, his emotions were extremely contradictory. It feels like there are two different concepts constantly colliding.

Perhaps, the project team is not unaware of the problem.

The number of voters slowly increased.

Raymond, a big investor, also asked questions.

Although he doesn't like this project personally, the benefits are too tempting. But to agree without saying a word is demeaning, and the appearance should be slightly modified, or a symbolic struggle should be made.

Raymond looked serious: "Can humans bear the consequences of confronting nature? Although this exercise was successful, it does not mean that it can truly compete with nature."

Project side: "It's not a complete confrontation. We are just saving ourselves, taking the initiative to fight against disastrous weather, and saving more people. We are just in the exploratory and trial stage now, and we still have a long way to go. However, we already have a Good start, isn't it?"

Yue Gengyang looked at the rising number of voters and spoke after Raymond.

"Is it too hasty to conduct the next offshore test now? After all, this concerns many cities on the coast and tens of millions of residents."

The project party said calmly: "We have carefully considered it. If we want to improve it, we need further tests. For example, when you study new drugs, you always have to do clinical trials. I believe you can understand it, Mr. Yue."

Yue Gengyang: "I understand, but I doubt whether this project is safe enough to conduct "clinical trials"? No offense, I am just worried about my company, the headquarters of the ancestor factory is near the sea..."

Yue Gengyang and the people from the project party asked and answered each other, and the atmosphere was quite friendly.

Yue Gengyang's questions came one after another.

The big investor Raymond felt that this scene was extremely awkward, and his old eyes flashed with shrewdness.

"Yue's attitude is not right. It seems that something happened that we don't know about!"

He has dealt with Yue Gengyang a lot, and he thinks he knows this business elite who is only half his age.

But on this occasion today, on the important issue of the Butterfly Project, Yue Gengyang showed a side that he couldn't understand.

Is Yue Gengyang a person of this temperament?

Or, is Yue Gengyang just overly cautious in this matter?

As the person in charge of a world-renowned pharmaceutical giant like the Ancestor Factory, is Yue Gengyang a saint? Worried about his own company, but worried about people in other places?

I, Raymond, don't believe a word!

Is he planning something bad?

In fact, there are many people who have similar ideas to Raymond, quietly waiting for Yue Gengyang's next words.

The speaker on the podium is also alert.

Yue Gengyang glanced at Feng Yi who was sitting next to him, and continued to ask the spokesperson:

"I just heard you introduce the big model of the Butterfly Project. Every time from selecting a target to attacking, it is necessary to collect huge and comprehensive meteorological data, and perform large-scale, high-precision complex calculations in a very short time. The difficulty level is amazing to me!"

The spokesperson of the project smiled back.

Yue Gengyang also smiled, and then continued: "I would like to ask..."

Yue Gengyang looked at the other party, his tone was not strong, and there was still a polite smile on his face, but the words he asked were like a heavy hammer, and the hammer hit blood:

"Excuse me, are there any unknown variables in the big model of this project?"

The venue suddenly became quiet.

On the podium in front, the spokesperson who was able to give a calm answer just now had a short smile.

Several important personnel of the Butterfly Project team also changed color at this time.

Even if someone reacted quickly and temporarily restrained their expressions, many smart people present had already captured the moment of shock on their faces just now.

Andrei shouted, "Oh yes! Your expressions tell me that there are indeed unknown variables! And they are very important! Perhaps it is a serious safety hazard? An unknown variable may lead to the planned results, or it may lead to completely different results! You are dishonest!"

In the hall, the person who was about to press the voting machine hesitated at this time.

On the big screen in front, the number of "voted" that was originally increasing slowly stopped.

The core members of the project team were extremely shocked at this time, and their first reaction was:

Someone! Leaked! Secrets!

There should be more tomorrow.
