Him and their stars

The man Yu Lian calls Eisen French is a fat, round man. He is half a head shorter than Yu Lian, but his weight is at least 1.5 times that of him. Fortunately, this is not a fat man with a wretched and gloomy temperament, but a big white fat man with a cute smile and a friendly face. Seeing him is like seeing a big ball of cotton or a gun that walks upright. Looking at it makes you feel... Festive.

This kind of character design is so classic, he must be either a villain or a technical nerd.

And Aisen is indeed dressed in a very technical style, wearing an ordinary T-shirt and jeans, with a large backpack on his back. His body is generally neat, but a bit rustic.

Seeing Yu Lian wearing an officer's uniform - actually the uniform of the National Defense University - he hesitated a little, but still came over. He wanted to shake hands with Yu Lian, but suddenly noticed the dirt between his fingernails, and hurriedly took it back.

"You, you are...that one, please send me an email, is that you?"

"Well, let me introduce you first. I am Yu Lian, a student of the Central Defense University." Yu Lian smiled brightly, shook hands with the other party directly, and then pointed to the chair: "Sit down first, and we will talk slowly."

Aisen sat down a little flattered. He originally wanted to take half the chair as a sign of respect, but because he was too fat, he ended up occupying the entire chair.

"A cup of iced coffee, double milk, double sugar, and a large piece of black forest cake." Yu Lian ordered the passing waiter robot.

Eisen was a little touched, he knew that these refreshments were prepared for him. After all, the handsome young officer across from him didn't have the same style of painting as him. At first glance, he didn't have the same style of painting as weak things like cakes and iced coffee with sugar.

Because he was so moved, he didn't even care about why the other party knew that he liked Black Forest Cake the most.

"Let me get straight to the point. This year's graduation ceremony coincides with the community's Navy Day. Therefore, we will have a single-ship combat exercise during the celebration."

"Ah...well, there will be a big celebration on Navy Day, I know that." Eisen blinked in confusion, not understanding what this had to do with him.

"Everyone is looking forward to it." He quickly added. Of course, he was not actually interested in the navy, but in the various stars who participated in the celebration, such as his favorite Miss Serena.

"Yes, there are many celebrity programs, including Miss Serena, who is now famous all over the galaxy. But after all, it is also Navy Day, so the finale program becomes our single-ship combat exercise."

Yu Lian deliberately made the "program" more serious and did not go out of his way to cover up his sarcasm.

"So, what does this have to do with me?" Aisen was still a little confused.

"I'm here to invite you to join my team, that is, to join the red team." Seeing that the other party was completely stunned, Yu Lian continued with a smile: "The current acting chief engineer is a girl with some engineering skills, but only Staying at the level of a senior enthusiast. There is no way, she has been crying and asking me to find a good helper for her, and she is even willing to give up her position as chief engineer."

Eisen French continues to be confused.

Yu Lian then said: "Oh, that girl is a beauty. Besides, we already have quite a few good girls on board."

Yu Lian didn't take out any photos of himself and the girls, but he still had some emotional intelligence. However, the above words are enough to brighten the eyes of Eisen French, an engineering geek.

He then quickly realized that he was a little out of sorts and coughed: "Huh, sorry... sir, sir? I... how should I call you? Sir? Boss?"

"...Just call me Yu Lian. I haven't graduated yet, and you are not a soldier."

In addition, if you dare to call me boss again, I will give you big-eared melon seeds!

"This incident is too sudden. Besides, since it is Navy Day, isn't it all about the military? I am just a fresh graduate from a general technical college, and I am already planning to work in a 4S store after graduation."

Then he became a motorcycle mechanic and worked there for ten years? Just thinking about what you will do in the future, I feel like you are wasting your life and talent.

"Don't worry, not just military academy students, but all recent college graduates can join. This includes comprehensive universities, city universities, vocational colleges and even technical colleges. We military academy students will become officers after graduation, but can the army Is it just made up of officers? Aren’t most non-commissioned officers and soldiers from all walks of life? This is probably the reason why the organizing committee agreed to recruit people from other schools, including ordinary colleges."

Yu Lian paused and raised his glass to Eisen: "Only outstanding people like you will be the backbone of the army. You will not be called officers, but you are standing in the universe with your own skills. of."

Aisen was still deceived, but he already showed a little shyness and a little pride. He was very happy to be praised at the first sight. Yu Lian struck while the iron was hot: "Unfortunately, my opponent is a famous family who is very popular in the academy. Disciples, most of the outstanding talents in this school have been recruited by them. Our red team was not favored by others from the beginning. However, this is still the last time for many people to set foot on a real battleship. Even if it is just an exhibition match, I I don’t want to go through the motions and be a backdrop for being beaten. Therefore, I need all excellent classmates, excellent partners, and excellent comrades! I need your strength!"

"..."

"So, what does it matter if you are a soldier or not? I am a grassroots, and everyone is a grassroots, but we have to make those famous flowers who grew up in the glass greenhouse look good. Then let the whole universe see, we are so strong Very!"

Eisen French was completely aroused. However, as an engineering geek with good logic, he still asked doubtfully: "But, how do you know about me... We have never even seen this, You think I am, this outstanding talent? This, this is really too much of an award."

Yu Lian opened the personal terminal and fiddled with a light curtain, with a U-shaped aircraft on it.

"Is this the design you designed when you participated in the National College Student Aircraft Competition the year before last?"

"Uh, um..." Eisen showed a bit of pride, but then he shook his head in distress: "I just won a Newcomer Creativity Award."

"However, I have seen the grand prize and the top five works. They are all rubbish that only attracts attention. Your design is the only one that is feasible." Yu Lian sneered.

The future racing champion of sub-beam ships, the prototype of the light wing ship, is indeed just an ugly duckling now. There are so many mediocre people in this world who don’t know what they are good at. It’s very sad, but also very fortunate, isn’t it?

"I have an intuition. Your light wing design can completely replace solar sails in the future."

Eisen French's eyes lit up, as if he had met a confidant, and he said loudly: "To put it bluntly, today's solar sails are just improved versions of the large solar panels of ancient satellites. But you know, This kind of equipment is designed to achieve stellar flight without hyperbeam transition technology. The so-called acceleration is calculated in hundreds and thousands of years. However, tactical solar sails used on high-speed military ships are actually Basically, through an array composed of a small amount of zero-element materials, the solar sail can extract stellar energy in an instant and achieve explosive acceleration in a short period of time..."

He paused and shook his head in distress: "But this will put a considerable burden on the hull. Moreover, haven't solar sails become consumables that will be completely scrapped after being used a few times? I think , this feeling doesn’t quite feel like technology, it feels like…”

"It feels more like alchemy and metaphysics, right?" Yu Lian laughed.

This is why scrapped solar sails must not be thrown away, after all, there are zero elements on them. As long as Yu Lian thought about the scene of various large and small engineering ships diligently picking up rubbish among the wreckage of the ship after a fleet battle, he felt particularly funny.

However, this scene is indeed happening everywhere in the universe.

"I have always felt that technology is only something that can be copied. However, zero elements cannot be copied..."

Yu Lian looked at the fat face that was actually very contagious even when serious, and once again confirmed that the other person was indeed the right person, and he did not let himself down.

"My personal suggestion is that you'd better register a patent for your design right away. Of course, it's best to register it with the alliance."

By the way, an ordinary technical geek wouldn't have much success in the league. You can't ask that young lady for help with this kind of thing. It would be bad if that precocious loli accidentally sees a business opportunity.

Then let’s find Ash. This guy should be quite idle recently.

"This, this... you mean..."

"Indeed, your design is not mature yet, but gold cannot be buried in the sand forever, so you need to prepare for a rainy day recently." Yu Lian said with a smile.

Yes, without its core power transmission system, the design of the light-wing ship would indeed be flashy. However, sooner or later, the power transmission system will pop out of Eisen's mind. At that time, having a patent is better than not having one, and having an alliance's patent is better than that of any other country.

Anyway, as long as the core transmission system is in your own hands, you don't have to worry about anyone piracy.

The fat man wanted to cry a little. This was the first time he had received such praise. He quickly drank a big sip of iced coffee, and then his voice was trembling:

"To be honest, I have been interested in ships and machinery since I was a child, and I have always wanted to be a ship designer... However, my family cannot afford the tuition fees for the design major of a prestigious university, and my grades are not good. It’s less than a full scholarship. Well, actually, I’m pretty good at math, physics, and chemistry, but I’m just lagging behind in foreign languages. Really! I’ve been teaching myself the design of aircraft and ships, and I hope I can be appreciated by everyone. . But the teachers all said that I was whimsical. The most important design award I have received so far is this. The total bonus is only 5,000 blue star coins. Except for an old man I met in the foggy city last time, you are also The first person to speak so highly of my design.”

yes! Because except for himself, no one knows that the light-wing ship is not the pinnacle of Eisen French at all. Thirty years later, the nightmare of the empire, the symbol of the Blue Star Volunteer Army, and the prototype of the Blue Tusk fighter jet will be born behind the round face of this fat technical geek?

Moreover, now that you have my guidance, Cangyao will definitely not be your peak!

However, I am quite curious about who the "old man from the foggy city" you refer to is! If you can see your talent, you must at least have good eyesight. Maybe you are a senior technical master like Uncle Carl Johansen.

Let’s find an opportunity to communicate. Maybe we can dig out some SRs that were unknown in previous lives.

"However, you are also excellent in your studies. Although all the teachers thought you were crazy, they didn't stop you. Right?" Yu Lian said with a smile.

"Yeah, I'm a really good mechanic. So before I graduated, someone from the 4S shop came to hire me." There was finally a hint of pride in his reserved and honest smile.

yes! In addition to being an excellent designer, you are also the chief engineer and second officer of the last hero ship of the community. However, looking at your chubby face now, who can believe it?

Thinking of this, Yu Lian opened another document from the terminal, and a structure that seemed to have several spiral links intertwined suddenly appeared on the picture.

Eisen's eyes suddenly started to shine again: "This, this kind of structure..."

"I have some new ideas for existing energy engines. Do you think parts of this shape are feasible?"

"There is a need for research! My personal intuition has improved the transmission efficiency and durability of the engine." Eisen showed a "I'm thinking" expression, restrained his smile, and observed carefully for a long time: "But try it out. Try it. However, the parts with this structure are a bit complicated and cannot be made by existing lathes. Unless it is..."

"Unless it's handmade, or a lathe is redesigned, right?"

Eisen nodded.

In fact, you can also use a 3D printer. It’s just that this galaxy, whose technology and culture trees are crooked, doesn’t have this technology!

"Even if it is handmade, it cannot be done by ordinary craftsmen. But look how beautiful it is! I think once she is born, she will shock the whole galaxy!" His eyes flashed with uncertainty, and he smiled. It makes people feel even more uneasy. This time, it really felt like a wretched, gloomy fat house watching a beautiful producer.

"So, after graduation, don't go to work in a 4S store. It's a waste of your time, and it's a waste of your talents. Even the spirit of the universe wants to cry after seeing it!" Yu Lian said with a smile.

"Ah?" Eisen was stunned.

"Let's open a small factory to produce cockroach-catching machines. With this kind of parts, we might be able to monopolize the market in a few years. I'll pay for it, and you'll invest in it with your technology. How about that?"

Aisen continued to be in a daze. He felt that the topics were jumping too fast, so fast that he was a little overwhelmed.

"You can consider this kind of thing slowly. Anyway, I welcome you at any time." Yu Lian paused and said in a tone close to a pyramid scheme: "But on the other hand, I need your reply immediately. How? As a grassroots person You guys, do you want to come with me to kick the Young Master’s ass?”

Essen French, who had lived submissively for more than twenty years, suddenly felt a long-lost feeling of passion... This feeling was only felt when he was listening to Serena Mayo's songs and designing himself. I only felt this way when I was on the boat.

"So, if I join, will you be the captain?"

"Yes, I am the captain. Chief engineer, damage control team leader, maintenance team leader, you can choose any of the above positions."

He hesitated and said: "Then, can I recommend two friends to come together? They are friends I met online. Like me, they are also fans of machinery. One is Tamir from Penglai Engineering College; the other is A little further away is Bai Ziya from the New China University of Technology. I guarantee, they are all experts in this field!"

Most engineering nerds don't have very high emotional intelligence. Of course, he is just recommending his friends, but he doesn't realize that in most cases, doing so will have the opposite effect. However, Yu Lian just said with some confusion: "Did the one at the back graduate? Ah, don't worry, I just think that the surname is Bai, and it is in New China. This name sounds very young."

Two familiar names again. Sure enough, engineering geeks all have a convergence effect. If there is one in front of you, there must be more than ten around. However, Yu Lian vaguely remembered that the one at the back should be several years younger than Aisen.

"He is a genius. He has jumped several levels. I can't compare with myself." Eisen French showed a shy smile again.

Yu Lian pondered for a moment, then firmly held Essen French's hand and shook it happily, not hiding his pleasure at all. This new chief engineer is so smart, buy one, get two free!

"Invite them to come. Also, happy cooperation! Oh, by the way, please call me captain from now on!"

Rounding it all off, it’s a big chapter of 5K. So today is another happy update! Meow meow meow
