Homo sapiens

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

He didn't get out of the car and only glanced at the harbor.

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

This kind of drop in water level will not be fatal to deep-water ports like Xingdao Port, but it will be a disaster for those ports whose water depth does not exceed 10 meters.

However, Xingdao Port did not sit still at this time.

Although the proportion of sea transportation in the total transportation of Homo sapiens companies has declined, it does not mean that there is no room for use.

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

Now Xingdao is digging an undersea canal as a precautionary measure.

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 turn into the Malacca Canyon Plain.

By then, 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 thinking of ways to dig an undersea canal. For this purpose, they even specially modified three canalizing ships and turned them into models that can be completely sunk into the seabed.

Xingdao and other coastal areas in Southeast Asia are also trying to find ways.

For example, if you build a maritime city based on the topography of the seabed, you can use this kind of maritime city as a new port even if the sea level drops by 100 meters in the future.

Li Qingye stayed on Binhai Avenue for more than ten minutes and then drove to the technology exhibition venue in Xingdao.

The venue is in a gymnasium on the ground.

Many people were not too surprised when they saw a robot getting out of the car.

He entered the venue with several security personnel.

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

He was currently staying in front of the exhibition area of ​​Sea Snail New Materials, a subsidiary of the Homo sapiens company.

Since the Star Island Technology Exhibition was for internal exchanges and did not invite other earth forces, many new technologies and secret technology achievements were displayed.

For example, the clothing synthesis machine launched by Haiyan Snail.

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

"For this clothing synthesis machine, our company has adopted new technology to integrate the synthesis mechanisms of cotton, linen, abaca, wool, spider silk, and silk into it. With artificial intelligence, it can quickly synthesize various clothes."

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

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

The instructor guided from the side: "Just put your hand into 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 appeared from the concave model of the palm.

This is the bio-based armor data connector. Xiao Lu instantly knew what to do. 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, with a famous quote written on the back.

[Start manufacturing...]

The humanoid model in the synthesis machine, based on Xiao Lu's body parameters, has become almost the same as Xiao Lu's appearance. Except for the lack of a head, the rest of the body's appearance is the same.

Since Xiaolu's requirements were relaxed, the model automatically became larger again.

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

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

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

In less than twenty minutes, a compassionate shirt was synthesized and the remaining culture fluid was dried.

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

"It's good, it fits very well, and it's not as itchy as the previous clothes."

Li Qingye took one look at this T-shirt and immediately saw the secret behind it. The one-piece synthesis raised the textile fineness of cotton fiber to the same level as silk, and without sewing lines, it would naturally be very smooth.

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

"Sir, you really have a keen eye." The commentator nodded.

The style of equipment launched by Haisnail is definitely not targeted at employees, but at the company's clothing stores.

With the explosive development of the economy, employees of Homo sapiens companies are gradually improving their pursuit of quality of life.

Although clothing companies in various places can make private orders, it often 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.

Haisnail saw the market potential in this area, and after targeting the market, it developed a specialized clothing synthesis machine for this purpose.

Clothing stores can even set up the clothing synthesis machine to be similar to a vending machine. As long as the customer operates it well, the equipment will automatically synthesize the clothes 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 Haisnail's other equipment.

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

The universal synthesizer is the flagship product of Sea Snail. This thing is not only used by various branches on the earth, but also in outer space such as the Homo sapiens space station, the lunar base, the Venus Cloud Palace base, and the Utopia station on Mars. type synthesis machine.

As long as specialized material microorganisms are inserted into this thing, various parts can be synthesized.

A general-purpose synthesis machine can even be used to produce related spare parts and combined 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 wildly is that the general-purpose synthesis machine of the Homo sapiens company on Earth can be directly used on Venus.

Now the area of ​​Venus's Cloud Palace floating platform has expanded to 2,738 square kilometers, and is expanding at a rate of doubling every year.

Sea Snail has 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 Haisnail and 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 the "no bankruptcy" and "no unemployment" characteristics of the Homo sapiens company. In this environment, the management is naturally not afraid of investing heavily in scientific research.

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

However, the current productivity can meet most of the needs of all employees, and there is not much problem anymore.

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