The Goddess Shines on America

After visiting the newly established laboratory, the next step is to go to the only McDonald's in the entire Windsor town and enjoy a sumptuous junk food lunch.

Today is another weekend, just as the mall "Alice" not far away will be on sale again, and McDonald's is also full of diners. The four girls searched for a long time before they found the only table for four in the corner of the second floor.

"In fact, I have been thinking about scientific research, whether investors and scientists themselves know what they will find out and what value is there?"

After Cici took her seat, she didn’t rush to bite her share of the Big Mac, but first asked: “It’s okay if it’s some purposeful corporate laboratory, such as Intel’s development of next-generation processors, or even Coca-Cola’s development of better taste. Coke. But like what you are doing now, if you can really get any useful results, what if you don’t?"

During the time she was talking, Alice had already eaten three chicken nuggets: "So, scientific research is definitely not something that small units, small businesses, and small institutions can set up casually. Of course, there are private scientists. But if we are equipped with complete laboratories and scientific research personnel, it can only be done by the government and large consortia."

As she said, she ate two French fries, and then said: "It goes without saying that the kind of national laboratory that studies basic physics and basic chemistry. As far as a company is concerned, as long as a company is technology-oriented, it will have Corresponding R&D∮→long∮→wind∮→wen∮→learning, ww￡w.cf∷wx.n↗et department. The only difference is that when it is small, it is just a small department such as the'research department' For example, Cisco’s current "technical department" is the same, but when the company reaches a certain scale, this "technical department" will of course be expanded according to the situation. Then for some companies, the so-called laboratory will naturally appear."

"To put it bluntly, it is a kind of subsidiary department,"

Wu Mi slowly pulled the chicken into strips: "When the company has spare money, throw it in. If there is output, it is rewarded. If not for the time being, it is a long-term investment. If you have been investing in a certain project. Continuous investment but no return, then based on the actual situation, the board of directors of these large companies will discuss and decide whether to shut down the project. Alice, am I right?"

Alice smiled and gave a thumbs up: "That's right, that's it!"

"But what you are studying now is a virus."

Ashley interrupted suddenly. She looked at Alice with gleaming eyes, and she looked like "you just have an inside story": "Obviously, she was a computer expert last year, and she also took over the Pentagon business earlier this year! As a result, Now I'm still playing virus research, Alice, just tell me honestly, you must want to go to bed with that professor, don't you!?"

"Why don't I roll the sheets with you!?"

Alice glared at Ashley fiercely, swallowing the smaller half of the Big Mac into her mouth in one breath, but she held back what she had to say next.

Just taking advantage of this emptiness, Ashley rolled her eyes and just dipped the fries with ketchup. She picked the sauce with the tip of her tongue playfully, and did not forget to put her tongue on the fries again. Around: "Wow, Alice, are you sure you want to go to bed with me? It looks like Cici's eyes are already burning."

It was exactly as she said, just as Alice had just finished that sentence, Cici was already choked. At this moment, with Ashley’s words, before Alice swallowed the burger, she glanced hard at her mouth and looked at Ashley disdainfully: "Smelly bitch, let go of that one. Poor French fries, it's not the electric stick in the drawer of your bedside table, lick it forever!?"

"belch!"

The speeches that came one after another caused Alice, who was eating and drinking, to choke: "I said, let's change the topic..."

However, this topic didn't seem to end, and Mai Mi didn't know what she was thinking about just now, obviously she was wandering. I came back to my senses at this moment, first was a daze, and then looked at Ashley: "Electric rod? I remember that your one was leaking not long ago? Can it still be used?"

Good guy, when this sentence came out, Alice completely gave up her plan to eat.

Because a strange atmosphere instantly spread among the four.

Wu Mi obviously realized that she seemed to have said something that shouldn't have been said, but Ashley looked embarrassed. At the first moment when she recovered, she looked around. Cici didn't put on the classic stunned look anymore, but had an extremely suspicious blush, which seemed to be countless times more embarrassing than Ashley.

Even Alice lost her word in an instant, at least within three or two seconds of this moment.

She looked at Ashley unnaturally.

In other words, she is also a sixteen-year-old girl, and Alice has also witnessed the development of Ashley throughout her adolescence when she has known each other since she was fourteen. It can be said that the model-like long legs not only attract the eyes of the opposite sex, but the so-called 21st century leg play year series, but also no more than her level. Whether it’s a one-shot or any other posture, this girl who lives either in Sunny California or in the Mediterranean Sea in Italy, almost never fails to show her thighs, so...

"Ahem."

In the end, it was Ashlee who broke the silence, although it was only a few seconds: "Leakage or something, everyone understands, I am at that age."

So, is this a posture to make everyone more silent?

"So... Alice, speaking of that handsome guy... Ah, it's not Professor Delof, I remember you still have the title of technical consultant in Lockheed? It's been months, I haven't heard much. Have you mentioned him, nothing new?"

Everyone laughed silently, this topic can be forcibly transferred, but of course Alice is also happy to be so, and then said: "Lockheed is a real large military enterprise, Ashley, and still A member of the dignified completed consortium, do you think they will be short of people? Don’t look at that kid who actually made this invitation to me, but unless it is a special juncture, or my overall social status is completely improved, otherwise, short What could happen in time?"

Speaking of Lockheed, it is of course impossible to say that Alice is not interested in it at all.

But as she immediately explained to Ashley, as a super-established company established as early as 1912, when did it lack talent? You know, for things like military industry, as long as a certain product can continue to be used, no one will be boring to develop new products.

On the one hand, military industrial enterprises are also commercial enterprises, and making money is the primary purpose. Unless there is a demand from customers, or there is high competitive pressure, no company will just play any new product research and development.

Furthermore, the inherent properties of ordnance determine that the more veteran and versatile it is, the longer it can live. To say that the aircraft is still unique, when it comes to various types of firearms, which one is not enduring once it is finalized?

In extreme terms, even the old-fashioned Mauser rifle can kill people in street fighting, right? This is not to say that like airplanes, it is impossible for a third-generation aircraft to even find a fourth-generation aircraft. It can only be turned into fireworks directly outside the line of sight.

I've even been mentioned all kinds of military daggers...

Moreover, the research and development of a new type of ordnance is often very long, especially the aircraft. From the establishment of the project, to the beginning of research and development, to the release of the test machine, to the first test flight, to the continuous test flight, to the public appearance, to the final deployment of troops, and finally to mass production, this is a long and horrible time. time.

In the timeline of more than ten years, the military research and development of the amount of manpower and material resources at every turn, unless you are already the title of the chief designer of a certain project, otherwise, the existence of individual employees is simply irrelevant.

"However, it won't be long."

Alice looked up at the sky at an angle of 30 degrees, rolled her eyes, and after doing a lot of looking forward to the future, she explained to a few friends: "Look, I don’t know anything else. Last year, the U.S. Department of Defense An "Advanced Tactical Fighter" program was launched to develop the next generation of air superiority fighters for the U.S. Air Force to deal with emerging global threats, to replace the F15, and to balance the Soviet Union's Su-27 in terms of performance."

"The authorities issued the tender last year, and then Lockheed and Northrop Grumman were selected. They are now competing to develop new fighters. In fact, not long ago, at the end of October, Oren Lockheed sent me an email saying that the company will start a 50-month demonstration and verification phase for this project in order to select the final aircraft model for delivery."

"In other words..."

"Wait!"

Just as Alice's long story was about to enter the next chapter, Mai Mi suddenly interrupted her with a high pitch: "That Oren Lockheed actually told you all this company secrets!?"

"Hey~www.readwn.com~ Don't think I have been to Maryland for so long, I am also a technical consultant hired by him personally anyway."

Alice said in an exaggerated tone: "Furthermore, this is a government contract for public bidding. The relevant companies are eager for the industry to know their achievements. Isn't it a secret?"

"Well, I was excited."

Wu Mi took a deep breath and allowed the other two girls to laugh. She reluctantly shook her head and said, "So you mean, it won't be long before Lockheed will activate you?"

"pretty close."

Alice drank Coke slowly and happily said: "After all, this generation of fighters is going to focus on electronic warfare. The programming of related systems, with me, will increase efficiency by countless times."

With that said, thinking that this great F22 has already begun the bidding phase, Alice's pretty eyes have already been bent into crescents. (To be continued.)
