The people were looking at Hao Ren as if they were looking at a clown when he took out a jade bottle and was talking slowly. The young man sensed the gazes and sighed as he said, "In ancient Han civilization, there was a dicinal formula that could rejuvenate the spirits of a person and allow him to regain almost all his strength over a short period of ti and keep on fighting.
This potion was called, the Potion of strength, or Spirit Rejuvenation potion."
Commander Gan spoke in a stern tone, "Can you get to the point?"
Hao Ren sighed, he had an urge to beat the shit out of this straight steel man, but he controlled the urge before he said, "I wonder if you there is any soldier who has just finished training?"
Commander Gan asked, "What do you need to know that for?"
Hao Ren replied, "If there is a person who is exhausted to the point where they cannot carry on, this potion can restore ninety percent of their energy within ten minutes ti. I am sure your people must have checked my details so they should be aware that I hold a beginner license in dicine and am collaborating with a company that produces dicinal costics."
His words were blunt but the tone was calm and could even be called soft. Commander Gan sneered and asked, "You want us to test a drug out of no where? Forget it."
Hao Ren looked at the man and placed the bottle on the table before him. He said, "You can get this bottle tested, and check if what I said is true or not, Commander Gan. I will see you after a week for the demonstration of my robots."
Commander Gan smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that we might imitate this recipe if it is as effective as you say it is?"
Hao Ren smiled and replied, "I apologize if I sound rude, but you and your people are not omnipotent. This potion is concocted by , and if there is even a slightest bit of mistake in proportion, then it will beco poison. Funny thing is that the poison would be harmless to animals."
He replied confidently, and surprised the old man. Commander Gan looked at Hao Ren and said, "Lieutenant Xia, please see the guest to his vehicle." before turning to Hao Ren and saying, "I will look forward to visiting you after a week. Till then."
Then he turned around and left the lounge. Commander Gan furrowed his brow and asked, "Did he just disrespect ?"
Grace and the two robots were inside the room, and the bot said, "Commander Gan, respected officers, we would be leaving now. I apologize if you felt that Master Hao was disrespectful to you. However, it is only a misunderstanding. Master Hao has made a lot of effort for this short noticed eting. Probably that is why he was vexed."
Commander Gan and the rest of the officers were surprised by Grace's words, and then they watched the robots walk out. Looking at them, an officer with glasses said, "I have been called a nerd even when I joined the military. I spent my entire ti in the labs working and developing technology.
However, I did not expect a young man to co up with a project that could fast forward the growth of our entire nation by twenty years, at least in technological aspect. Commander, if we can get these robots for dical services, the on-field death toll will reduce by a very large margin."
Commander Gan frowned and asked, "Major Yen, do you think these bots really have the sophistication and empathy that a human dic will have? I don't believe in that."
Major Yen shook his head and replied, "Sir, these bots don't have any emotions. However, they all precision and focus that a human would always lack on the battlefield. If we can pair them up with a human supervisor then we would be able to make up for the empathy factor that you are worried about."
Commander Gan asked curiously, "What do you an by pairing them up?"
The other officials were also interested, and Major Yen said, "During the test, one of the robots, took out a stack of papers and handed it to . I read it, and it turns out, CEO Hao had already covered this topic in the potential worries article."
He then passed the docunts to Commander Gan, the old man began to read and the others all watched. They could not leave like Hao Ren did, they were called by Commander Gan, how can they leave without begin told that they are dismissed?
After a few minutes, Commander Gan said, "Xia Yun, go catch up to that kid and tell him that we will be visiting his production plant in a weak for inspection. Also, tell him that we will respond to him about the potion after we have tested it in the lab."
Xia Yun nodded, and left the lounge after a salute. As soon as he left the lounge, he dashed out to chase for Hao Ren. He just turned around when he found Hao Ren sitting on a bench with the bots standing on the side. Xia Yun stopped and Hao Ren smiled at him. Xia Yun asked in surprise, "Didn't you leave?"
Hao Ren nodded and replied, "It was dramatic, right? I will be frank with you, Lieutenant Xia. I was upset and even wanted to brawl, but I respect the people who serve the nation. I would expect the sa treatnt, and that is all. If you would, please lead back to the parking."
Xia Yun nodded and then told him what Commander Gan said and the young man only nodded and followed him outside. The entire eting was not as sophisticated as Hao Ren would have preferred but then again, this was not the normal world. This was the military world, and the people had their own rules to go about things and their own glasses as to how the world looks like.
...
Hao Ren went back to the office of the Thunder Technologies, and called over Klaus to his cabin. The young man adjusted his glasses and asked, "Boss, what do you have for ?"
Hao Ren said, "I want to make our bots more flexible and specially programd for dical care only. I want all the procedures that can save a life on it whether it is ancient redies, or surgical. Can that be done?"
Klaus nodded and replied, "We have hired an orthopedic doctor for his advise on how the joint system can be improved. As for the special programming, we will need to extract a lot of details. The teams working on the bots are not enough, and the new hires will not be able to handle the load just yet. Plus we have Koro-Koro bot on the hot list, and so is Horizon Pri to release.
I don't think I would be able to deliver on such a complicated software programming so quickly."
Hao Ren looked at him and said, "At least you are honest about it. I will handle the programming, just get the flexible body, can that be done?"
Klaus was surprised but then he said, "Yes, I can."
Hao Ren replied, "Well, I want a working prototype in five days, also, the 3-D printer you guys asked for, is it here?"
Klaus smiled and replied, "The guys just finished installing it."
Hao Ren nodded and replied, "This ti around, create the prototype with a mix of steel and carbon fiber. I want to it to have so self defense capabilities. Well, that's about it for the ti being."
Klaus nodded and replied, "Good, I will get it done."
Hao Ren watched the man stand up and leaned back in the chair. He said, "Xiao i, can you help out?"
Xiao i replied, "I want a bigger server."
Hao Ren picked up the intercom and told Lynn Carter to get five big servers inside the server room. Lynn Carter did not know what it was for, but Hao Ren told her, it was for experintal projects and so. The lady agreed to get the software in two days. Xiao i replied that she would be able to deal with it as soon as she has access to new servers.
...
Hao Ren was in the office till late in the night for the first ti in his life. He had just finished reading the docunts of collaboration that Han Lingshi sent over, and was shocked. Han Lingshi had transferred the Chariot Racing team profit to him. Even fifty percent of ownership was given to him as well.
Recalling the race, he could not help but go back to the scene where Augustus Donovan called Han Lingshi a whore. Hao Ren suddenly sighed and mumbled, "Fuck!"
The system sent out a notification, *Ding: Host, the key to a relationship is trust and honesty. This is why you are given the task of confronting your wife and yourself with honest feelings that you have at the mont and also to retain her trust in you while doing so."
