Homo sapiens.

Li Qingye's car stopped slowly on Xingdao's Binhai Avenue.

He didn't get out of the car, just glanced at the harbour.

At this time, the sea level has dropped a lot, and with the influence of low tide, the water level of the port has dropped by nearly 4 meters.

This drop in water level would not be fatal to a deep-water port like Xingdao Port, but it would be a catastrophe for those ports whose water depth did not exceed 10 meters.

But at this time, Sing Tao Port did not sit still.

Although the proportion of sea freight in the total transportation of Homo sapiens has decreased, it does not mean that it is useless.

Shipping by sea still has a certain cost advantage for bulk minerals, large parts, reinforced concrete, etc. that do not require high timeliness.

Now Xingdao is already digging a submarine canal, which is taking precautions.

In the next 10 years or so, the global sea level will continue to drop by 13 to 15 meters, and now it has dropped to nearly 3 meters. The Strait of Malacca will become a canyon and plain of Malacca.

At that time, there will be no way for large ships to pass through the Malacca area.

Therefore, the Sing Tao branch and the Malacca branch are already trying to find a way to dig a submarine canal. For this purpose, they have even specially modified three canal-drilling ships, turning them into models that can completely sink into the bottom of the sea.

As for Xingdao and other coastal areas in Southeast Asia, they are also trying to find a way.

For example, according to the seabed topography, a sea city can be built. Even if the sea level drops by 100 meters in the future, this sea city can also be used as a new port.

Li Qingye stayed on Binhai Boulevard for more than ten minutes, then drove to Xingdao's technology exhibition venue.

The venue is in a gymnasium on the ground.

Many people were not too surprised to see a robot get off the car.

He took several security personnel into the venue.

Suddenly he stopped. This is the exhibition area of ​​biosynthetic materials. More than a dozen related subsidiaries of Homo Sapiens, such as Sea Snail, Mandalay Metallurgy, Nanyang New Materials, and Qingye New Materials, have set up special booths here. exhibition area.

He was staying in front of the sea snail new material exhibition area at this time. This subsidiary is the veteran of Homo sapiens.

Since the Xingdao technology exhibition is for internal communication, no other earth forces are invited to come, so many new technologies and achievements of secret technologies are displayed.

For example, the clothing synthesis machine launched by the sea snail in front of you.

"Sir, you are welcome to come and investigate." Although the female guide did not know which executive of the company was behind the synchronous robot, she still introduced it with a smile.

"This clothing synthesis machine, our company has adopted a new technology to integrate the synthesis mechanism of cotton, flax, Manila hemp, wool, spider silk, and silk into it. With artificial intelligence, it can quickly synthesize all kinds of clothes."

Li Qingye turned his head: "Xiao Lu, go and try."

Security guard Xiao Lu nodded: "Okay, sir."

The guide guides from the side: "Just put your hands in this device."

There is a concave model on the device that can be pressed with the palm of the hand. Xiao Lu put his hand on it, and suddenly some tiny tentacles popped out of the concave model of the palm.

This is the bio-based armor data connector, Xiao Lu knew what to do in an instant, and he sent the detailed shape and movement data of his body to it.

The device then pops up a holographic projection screen.

[Please select the type of clothing...style...details...]
Xiao Lu quickly ordered a t-shirt, and then asked for white and loose cotton material, and a famous quote written on the back.

[Begin manufacturing...]
According to Lu's body parameters, the humanoid model in the synthesis machine has almost the same appearance as Lu. Except for the absence of the head, the rest of the body is the same.

Due to Xiaolu's loose requirements, the model was automatically enlarged again.

Then, a large amount of cotton fiber was extracted from the material spare box of the synthesis machine, and a t-shirt was quickly assembled on the surface of the model.

The biosynthetic bacteria of the synthetic machine also started simultaneously, and began to connect fibers and fibers, completely eliminating the sewing process.

Dyeing does not need to be done separately, it can be done in one step directly in the synthesis machine, and the biological dyeing technology is used, the color is more natural and harmless.

In less than 10 minutes, a T-shirt was synthesized, and the residual culture solution was dried along the way.

Xiao Lu picked up the t-shirt, took off the special suit on his body, put on the t-shirt himself, and tried to move around for a while.

"Nice, fits great and doesn't itch like the previous outfit."

Li Qingye glanced at this T-shirt, and immediately saw the mystery in it. The one-piece synthesis raised the weaving fineness of cotton fibers to the same level as silk, and without sewing lines, it would naturally be very smooth.

He gave a rather pertinent comment: "It has certain application value for specialized clothing stores."

"Sir, you are so insightful." The narrator nodded.

This type of equipment launched by Sea Snail is definitely not for those employees, but for the company's clothing store.

With the explosive development of the economy, the pursuit of the quality of life of Homo sapiens employees is also gradually improving.

Although clothing companies in various places can make private orders, it usually takes about a week, and communication between the two parties is also a problem.

After all, Party A and Party B are not the same person after all.

The sea snail saw the market potential in this area. After aiming at the market, it developed a special clothing synthesis machine for this purpose.

Clothing stores can even set the clothing synthesis machine to a mode similar to that of a vending machine. As long as the customer operates it well, the equipment will automatically synthesize it, and can also provide mailing services.

This is the adjustment of the operating mechanism brought about by technological innovation.

Li Qingye continued to look at the other equipment of the sea snail.

For example, toy synthesis machines, gun synthesis machines, and general-purpose synthesis machines.

The general-purpose synthetic machine is the flagship product of the sea snail. This thing is not only used by various branches on the earth, but also widely used in the Homo sapiens space station in outer space, the moon base, the Venus cloud palace base, and the Utopia station on Mars. type synthesis machine.

This thing can synthesize various parts as long as special material microorganisms are inserted.

It is even possible to use the general-purpose synthesis machine to produce related spare parts and combine them into a new general-purpose synthesis machine, thereby achieving an exponential increase in production scale.

The reason why the Venus Cloud Palace project can expand crazily is that the general-purpose synthesizer of Homo sapiens on the earth can be used directly on Venus.

Now the area of ​​the Yungong floating platform on Venus has expanded to 2738 square kilometers, and then doubles every year.

Sea snails have laboratories and researchers in various outer space bases, specializing in biosynthesis technology to quickly synthesize qualified parts under other gravity conditions.

Li Qingye walked around the sea snail, and then went to the exhibition areas of several other material companies. These companies did not rest on their laurels, and also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the research and development of new technologies.

In fact, the innovation power of the major subsidiaries of Homo sapiens is very strong.

This is mainly due to Homo sapiens' characteristics of "non-bankruptcy" and "no unemployment". Under this general environment, the management is naturally not afraid to invest heavily in scientific research.

After all, the company will not go bankrupt. If it takes the wrong technical route, it will be reorganized at worst.

However, the current productivity meets most of the needs of all employees, and there are not many problems.

With money, resources, and a large number of talents, the company is not afraid of bankruptcy, and it will not be too afraid of investing heavily in scientific research projects.
