I Became a Genius Engineer - Chapter 125



Material Engineer Lee Cheol-woo (10)

‘now… … . What is this person talking about? A chance to strike back… … ?’

Chairman Wang thought.

What kind of a country is China, $14 trillion GDP. Hanhwa produces about 4,000 trillion won every year, and the population alone exceeds 1 billion.

The land area is over 9 million square kilometers, and it is a country overflowing with various natural resources.

‘Are you telling me to rebel against China?’

He thought it was nonsense.

What is Taiwan like, where you live?

GDP of $500 billion, about 1/3 of China’s, and population of 20 million. The land area is only 30,000 square kilometers.

And the sales of TSM, which he leads, is 200 billion won.

It is a company that accounts for almost half of Taiwan’s GDP.

TSM rebelling against China was like Taiwan rebelling against China.

Chairman Wang knows that fact well, but… … .

‘what? that confidence? How can I do real China?’

Looking at Lee Chul-woo’s confident face, he thought.

‘How can you be so confident? Even against China? How the hell?’

he continued to ponder.

‘okay… … . As Lee Cheol-woo said, this may be the first and last chance in my life. You have to think carefully.’

His daughter was an athlete. And he also had talent.

His daughter had won a small Asian track and field event. No, it should have been.

The host of the Asian athletics competition was China, and the second place was a Chinese national athlete.

His daughter was disqualified from the competition, and first place went to a Chinese national.

It was the moment when a lifetime of hard work was in vain.

‘… … . How can I get rid of that sorrow at that time?’

He couldn’t forget his daughter’s expression and face at that time.

‘dad… … . Why why! Should I be disqualified? What the hell is the reason?’

When her daughter said that, Chairman Wang couldn’t bear to say that the country was powerless.

And that wasn’t all.

China tried to get involved in the operation of TSM in every case, and it interfered a lot in various ways.

Of course, the country called Taiwan protected it to some extent… … . Compared to China, they were just a weak country.

‘If it fails… … ?’

If the half-year failed, the result was obvious.

‘So, do you want to do more than just die? If it’s not now, another chance won’t come.’

He made a big decision.

“…… Counterattack, I’ll have to listen to the details.”

he replied positively.

* * *

Chairman Wang asked for my suggestion.

Wouldn’t it be a positive sign to want to hear more details?

And I gave Minseok a signal.

“I’ll tell you what we’re planning.”

“What plans do you have?”

Chairman Wang asked with a curious expression.

“Did you hear about Humanoid Ark?”

“Yes. I heard. Fully artificial intelligence. A robot that can understand human speech and help humans.”

“Then the story should be fast. First, we need to know the momentum of China’s development. China has a huge population…”

Minseok told us what we had planned so far.

The story of China losing its demographic competitiveness, the story of technological isolation, and so on.

As a result, it even talks about democratizing China.

Chairman Wang listened to Minseok’s explanation and asked a question.

“… that’s a great enough method.”

After hearing Minseok’s explanation, Chairman Wang did not hide his slightly disappointed expression.

“Is there a problem?”

“To be honest… China won’t collapse that much. Even if it loses its demographic competitiveness, China has a structure that can return to its home market alone. Rebellion risking its life will not happen that way.”

Hearing Chairman Wang’s words made sense.

If a rebellion or coup d’état occurs in China, how will it be suppressed? Perhaps you will have to risk your life.

Is democracy important to the Chinese people enough to risk their lives?

The Great French Revolution, it was a revolution that occurred because people of that era starved to death or were killed by spears, but wanted to try.

A revolution will be difficult unless it results in life.

‘… … . Well, I’m sure it’s a difficult problem.’

He nodded.

“And if that happens, China will not stand still. It will surely try to unify Taiwan by force.”

“…”

We didn’t even think about it until there, so we had nothing to say.

“I don’t know if you’re thinking too easily.”

President Wang gave us some advice.

“Chairman Wang.”

I called Chairman Wang.

“Yes. Mr. Lee Chul-woo.”

“Taiwan has a strong military alliance with the United States, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Then can the Chinese invade easily?”

“It’s not going to be easy. But you can do it.”

“Even with America behind it?”

“To be a little more honest, even if we have a strong military alliance with the United States, that is now.”

“You mean now?”

“Yes. I don’t know what will happen later. China may come up with some scheme, or the United States may abandon us for its own interests. To be honest, I do not believe it.”

but… … . can not believe it.

We are not talking about self-reliant national defense for nothing. Taiwan will be the same.

“Um… Then there’s only one problem. China’s armed invasion.”

China’s democratization is still a long way off, and it wasn’t a problem when we were supporting TSM right now.

From noble mtl dot com

The problem is the relationship between Taiwan and China that arises when we and TSM join hands.

It was a problem that it went wrong, and the armed invasion was started right away.

“Yes. That’s right. In the end, we can’t do anything because of that problem. It’s heartbreaking, but we, Taiwan, are watching because of China’s military force.”

“Then… I guess we can solve that problem.”

If there was a problem, it was enough to solve it.

force? Isn’t that just a matter of making weapons?

“……? yes?”

“You can solve that problem.”

“Don’t you know what force means?”

“I know. Wouldn’t it be nice to make a good weapon?”

“Making weapons… It’s not like making bread at a bakery. You know that, don’t you?”

“Um, I don’t know that much. Making things is my specialty, right?”

Among the by-products produced while making Soromin, there were materials called boron iron and boron silver.

First, boron iron is harder than conventional iron and has high elasticity. Not only that, but it was much lighter than steel or iron.

It was the perfect material for the skeleton of a fighter jet.

and boon.

Boungeun had a little special property, and it had the property of absorbing electromagnetic waves.

If a fighter made of boron iron was painted with boron silver, a great stealth fighter could be made. On top of that, if you add the aerial version of the ITE-X engine, which is still in the works… … .

Perhaps a fighter with much better performance than the F-22 Raptor, which is currently being evaluated for its best combat power, will be made.

“…”

Chairman Wang was at a loss for words.

Because that’s right. That I’m good at anything.

“Okay. So, let’s do this. We will make a new fighter together with the Defense Acquisition Program Administration of Korea. And we will take measures to export it to Taiwan at a low price.”

“Uh… well…”

“hahahahaha, I know you’re worried. You can answer after the performance test of the new fighter we’re making.”

“Can I?”

“Yes. I am confident.”

I thought about it a little, but no matter how good a skill you have, you can’t do it if you don’t have the strength to protect it.

Wouldn’t it be nice to increase our country’s national defense?

I want to go to war, but it’s not bad to prepare for any unexpected situation.

“……. OK. Thank you.”

After the first meeting with Chairman Wang, we returned to Korea.

Back in the lab, I thought again about President Wang’s words.

‘hmm… … . Should I even think about the war?’

China’s armed invasion of Taiwan, I can’t believe it, but after thinking about it, I thought it might be possible.

Did China go crazy and make heaven and earth and weaponize rare earth elements?

Obviously China won’t stop until it crushes us.

It was not China that would back down after suffering like that.

‘Do you think you’re willing to go to war… … .’

Then it suddenly dawned on me.

If China is determined enough to go to war… … . Assassin, no… … . Could we send a hitman to come?

Min-seok said that security is the top priority and set up a security team that has been verified abroad, but I thought it was a situation where I couldn’t be relieved.

What’s the use of it when you die?

‘… … . Now is not the time for me to worry about others.’

The worry deepened suddenly.

Seriously, if a hitman is sent from China, can our security team stop it? Even while I’m sleeping? Even while I’m on break?

Do I have to live in constant anxiety?

‘… … . I must come up with a way.’

First of all, making a fighter may take a little time. I need to put out the fire right now.

I’ve been thinking about how to do it.

‘hmm… … . Create complete security in your home and lab to prevent infiltration?’

So what do you do when you’re out and about?

It wasn’t a good way.

Then I suddenly remembered.

‘Isn’t it enough if I become stronger?’

i get stronger

Of course, that didn’t mean pure physical training. No matter how hard you train your body, you can’t avoid the gun.

Then, a good idea came to my mind.

‘Boungeum.’

Boongeum, the most expensive by-product of Boong-woo, had more self-healing properties than Boong-iron.

‘I’m going to make a nanosuit out of it. There… … . It effectively assists threat detection by attaching NCI and radar.’

Let’s think about it there.

Endless ideas came to mind.

‘Then, I’ll have to remodel the ITE-X engine and make it into an aviation version. If I do well, I might even be able to fly?’

I imagined wearing a flying reinforced suit.

‘Are you a complete hero?’

And excited.

A hero flying through the city, solving crises and helping people in need.

‘This must be so much fun, right?’

Being completely freed from physical threats, and being able to gain strength for oneself.

It seemed so much fun.

‘hmm… … . Was it even possible? How do you get the energy to do that? I don’t think you can do it with gasoline.’

Even if the ITE-X engine is converted into an aerial version, it will require a lot of energy to get things into the air.

According to the law of conservation of energy, no matter how much you modify the ITE-X engine, there will be a limit.

‘I can’t even make an arc reactor.’

Arc reactors and nuclear power plants are made almost the size of the palm of your hand, but no matter how much you think about it, it was still unrealistic.

‘hmm… … . Did you think it was too easy? Energy supply is more of a problem than I thought, right?’

I thought it was too much science fiction.

‘No, I think it will work.’

Wouldn’t it be possible to make one if it doesn’t exist? A new fuel to create energy!
