Ever since Dream Entertainment held a joint press conference to announce the establishment of Dream Entertainment and 'Brave World', Shi Lei's phone number was known to the entire world. Anyone could call him.
However, there were some calls that Shi Lei had to answer.
For example, AMD, Asustek, Microstar, and Jinshan. Shi Lei couldn't just ignore them, right?
Even though he knew the other party's phone number the first time he answered the call and could set it as his contact list, he wouldn't know it before he contacted them, right?
Because of this, Shi Lei couldn't set the settings to reject phone numbers that weren't in his contact list.
Otherwise, he might miss out on very important calls.
However, Shi Lei thought of a very evil method, which was to get a pretty secretary to help him!
It was best for a secretary to answer calls.
Moreover, a secretary had so many functions. If there was something to do, the secretary would do it.
Unfortunately, this idea could only stay in Shi Lei's mind!
If he really dared to do this, it would be the fastest way to find Lingyumo. However, the result would be a little tragic.
In order to meet Lingyumo better, Shi Lei could only give up on the idea of finding a pretty secretary!
Shi Lei picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Lijian Province. He said in fluent English, "This is Dream Entertainment, Shi Lei." Even though he only said his name, he was asking for the other party's identity.
"Hello, Mr. Shi, I am Tom Clusi." AMD's Senior Vice President Tom Clusi replied over the phone.
Shi Lei grumbled in his heart. This Tom Clusi actually changed his phone number to call him. He was still imagining that it was Intel calling him!
"Mr. Tom, is there anything I can help you with?"
Shi Lei glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen. It was almost 11 o 'clock at night, and it was almost 11 o' clock in the morning in Li Jianguo.
"Mr. Tom, what's the matter? Hurry up and finish it. It's already 11 PM here. I'm going to sleep!"
Tom Clusi paused for a moment, then said apologetically, "Mr. Shi, I'm sorry, I forgot about the time difference between us.
"Today, I'm calling to inform you of one thing. Regarding the cooperation between us, AMD is ready to complete it.
Our business delegation will take the plane today and first arrive at Shanghai in Xia Xia, and then transfer to Shuangqing City. "
Shi Lei thought for a while and replied, "Mr. Tom, does AMD mean that we will hold a press conference tomorrow to announce the cooperation between us?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Shi, you were just reminding me about the time difference. How could you forget about it now?
Our AMD delegation arrived at the Shuangqing Festival around the evening of the 10th of January, Xia Country time.
Therefore, the earliest we can hold a press conference is the day after tomorrow, "Tom Clusi replied with a smile.
"Well, then let's hold a press conference the day after tomorrow!" Shi Lei thought about it for a while. Holding a press conference on January 11th wouldn't affect anything.
"Mr. Shi, regarding the venue and related arrangements for the press conference, I'll leave it to Dream Entertainment!" Tom Clusi said to Shi Lei in a tone similar to that of Xia Xia.
Shi Lei was a little surprised, but he replied, "No problem!
Dream Entertainment will handle the media related to Xia Xia.
If we need the media from Lijian Province to attend, I'm afraid we'll need AMD to make some noise.
After all, Dream Entertainment's news hasn't been taken seriously by Lijian Province's media yet. "
Dream Entertainment's upcoming "World of the Brave" was quite famous in the world's gamers' circle.
However, there was still a lack of attention from foreign media. After all, it was just a game that hadn't been released yet.
Shi Lei believed that once the game was released, the foreign media would be like sharks that smelled blood. They would crazily rush forward to report on "World of the Brave" in detail.
Unfortunately, "World of the Brave" hadn't been released yet. Everything was unknown, and the foreign media wouldn't pay much attention to it.
"Mr. Shi, regarding our Lijian Province's media, Dream Entertainment doesn't need to worry about it.
Before we depart, we'll release the news through some channels.
The smart media industry won't let go of such good news, right? "Tom Clusi replied with a smile.
"En, that's good!
Let's leave it at that for now. We'll discuss the details when we meet tomorrow. "After Shi Lei finished speaking, he waited for Tom Clusi's response before hanging up.
Shi Lei placed the phone on the computer table and muttered to himself, "Looks like Sapphire doesn't plan to contact us!"
Sapphire was different from ASUS and MSI. Sapphire only produced graphics cards. AMD would give Sapphire a certain number of invitation codes for "World of the Brave". Sapphire didn't have any other products, so they didn't need to contact Dream Entertainment to obtain an additional invitation code.
After Shi Lei washed up, he didn't do anything else. Instead, he laid on the bed and prepared to rest.
In the past few days, Shi Lei had been busy writing a voice system based on the GMM model. He was overworked and worked late at night, which made his mental state very poor.
It was rare that a voice system based on the GMM model was finally completed. Shi Lei had to have a good rest.
In the Lin 'an underground base, Dong Guoguo led the metal exoskeleton project. All the research teams under her were also working late at night.
Due to the mechanical power research team led by Lu Fang, they successfully developed a 25 horsepower micro turbine engine. This solved the shortcoming of the metal exoskeleton's lack of power. The progress of the entire metal exoskeleton project had leaped forward.
Whether it was the overall shape designed by Dong Guoguo or the mechanical structure and shock absorption team led by Professor Jin Da, they all made considerable progress.
As of 11: 00 p.m. on January 9th, two micro turbine engines and two ceramic high-temperature heat insulation modules, these four most valuable components, were processed in the laboratory by the military research institute and sent to the Lin 'an underground base.
Just these four components were worth an astronomical figure!
The micro turbine engine was derived from the model turbine engine.
Due to the material and process problems of the model turbine engine, its lifespan was generally only about 40 hours.
However, the micro turbine engine used in the metal exoskeleton definitely couldn't have such a short lifespan.
Therefore, using the advanced technology and process of the military, and adopting a confidential formula of ceramic materials, the micro turbine engine was manufactured. Its lifespan was as high as 10,000 hours, which was 416 days, a little more than a year.
However, such a technological improvement made the price of a micro turbine engine reach a frightening 1.2 million yuan!
A full 1.2 million yuan. The house price in Shuanghu District was only 1,500 yuan per square meter. It was enough to buy 8,000 square meters of commercial residential houses!
The cost of two turbine engines was 2.4 million yuan.
The main function of the other two ceramic high-temperature heat insulation modules was to isolate the heat emitted by the micro turbine engine, which would cause harm to the metal exoskeleton operator.
For safety reasons, the micro turbine engine would be installed in a semi-enclosed environment, so it would generate a lot of heat.
Without the ceramic high-temperature heat insulation modules, no operator would be able to ride inside the metal exoskeleton.
In order to achieve a level of almost complete heat insulation, the cost of the ceramic high-temperature heat insulation modules was as high as 1.1 million yuan, which was only 100,000 yuan less than the micro turbine engine!
The price of the four core components reached 4.6 million yuan. The metal exoskeleton was too high-end. Even if it had strong combat power, it should only be produced on a small scale.
In addition to the four core components being expensive, the other components were not cheap either. For example, in terms of defense, the special alloy armor plate had an average thickness of 10mm, and the alloy ceramic composite armor plate had an average thickness of more than 20mm.
The price of the full armor plate had reached a high price of more than 500,000 yuan.
Under the armor plate, there was a rubber buffer layer with an average thickness of 4mm, and various hydraulic piping systems hidden in the buffer layer.
Especially the hydraulic piping, because it would withstand a lot of pressure, it was made of special materials. The price of each metal exoskeleton pipe, plus the cost of the rubber buffer layer, exceeded 100,000 yuan.
There was also the electronic system equipment inside the metal exoskeleton, including the micro scanning radar, infrared detector, small computer, GPS locator, satellite communication connection module, camera monitoring device, and so on. The price of all the electronic equipment also exceeded 500,000 yuan.
The remaining parts, such as the special eyepiece glass needed for the eyepiece imaging technology.
It was equivalent to the HUD technology of a fighter jet. This technology helped the metal exoskeleton pilot understand the situation of the metal exoskeleton at any time.
For example, the damage to the armor, the amount of fuel remaining, the current location information, the radar scanning situation, thermal imaging view, real-time combat information, and so on.
The cost of these parts was about 100,000 yuan.
Overall, the cost of a metal exoskeleton was more than 5.8 million yuan. Excluding the labor cost, the research and development cost, the profit from the military's internal manufacturing, and the value of the operating system that Shi Lei had yet to develop, the cost of a metal exoskeleton was more than 5.8 million yuan.
If the cost of all the additional benefits were included, the cost of the exoskeleton would probably exceed 8 million yuan!
It was still unknown whether such a terrifying cost could become an effective combat power. After all, the operating system that Shi Lei had written was not completed yet.
Once the operating system was completed, it would be installed into the internal computer of the metal exoskeleton. Only then could the combat power of the metal exoskeleton be tested.
Only then could the combat power of the metal exoskeleton be known!
