At 1:15 AM on August 17th, the Jinling Military Region dispatched an entire division to conduct a blockade and clear a path nearby. Hundreds of military trucks drove into the center of the military district.
A group of people had already been anxiously waiting at the entrance of the military district. Ji Yuan, Elder Ji, Zhou Lao, Elder Qi, and several National Heroes, along with numerous Academicians stood there, flanked by over a dozen Academicians, dozens of Military Technology Experts, and nearly a thousand technical engineers, all waiting for this moment to arrive.
A week’s time was enough for them to undergo a transformation, turning them into staunch supporters of the new 7nm Lithography Machine!
A young soldier in uniform jogged over with a solemn expression. "Report! A total of 197 sets of machine tools and three production lines are ready, with 2,427 operators in place. We request instructions from the leadership."
"Begin installation and ensure it is completed before dawn," Ji Yuan said in a deep voice while handing over a special list. "Distribute tasks according to the list among the officers and technicians; there must be no mistakes!"
"We guarantee to complete the task!"
After the soldier left, Ji Yuan slowly turned around to look at the group of Military Industry elites and technology experts behind him, their eyes filled with fiery enthusiasm.
In just seven days, they had completely transformed in spirit. Each person absorbed new knowledge and was eager to showcase their skills on the front lines, participating in this monumental project that would change the course of history and reshape the world map.
Ji Yuan smiled; his expression was relaxed and full of satisfaction. "Alright, you all go ahead and collect your things according to your assigned tasks."
After holding back for so many days, everyone was relying solely on a single belief to keep going. If they lost hope, many of their bodies would likely collapse.
During this time, he had considered giving special treatment to the older generation of experts, but without exception, they all rejected it. They did not want to enjoy privileges at this critical moment; stubbornly, like young novices, they insisted on participating in this "devil training" alongside the vibrant youth.
"Oh ho~"
At that moment, upon hearing Ji Yuan's command, a cheer erupted from the crowd. These individuals, who held high status and prestige outside, were now as excited as children.
"Today is the day to achieve great things!" someone shouted with clenched fists, motivating themselves.
"Devote One's Life to the Country! I, Old Wei, will not shy away!"
"Hehe, this time I am definitely going to develop the optical film. No one in the Eastern superpower can research high-tech optical films for the Lithography Machine? I refuse to believe that!"
Many understood that the real challenges of the entire plan were just beginning, but no one backed down; instead, they were filled with confidence and eager to seize the opportunity to participate in this great project.
"Kid Ji, look who has come!" Elder Ji excitedly waved his hands and brought in an elderly man who was about his age.
Ji Yuan instinctively looked up, first taken aback, then memories flooded back, causing his raised hand to tremble slightly.
The old man had a head full of silver hair and a weathered face; his hands resembled withered branches. From a distance, he appeared to be an ordinary elder, but up close, one could sense the indomitable spirit hidden within him.
"You are that...?" Ji Yuan was somewhat hesitant, not expecting the country to actually invite him over.
"The era is filled with tumultuous waves; you bury your head and willingly become a silent pillar. In a time of poverty, you stand tall and become the greatest wealth of the nation..."
Ji Yuan had an impression of this Elderly Expert, but it was only from the screen. He never dared to believe he would have the opportunity to meet such a hero in reality.
"Ah, you recognize me?" The man seemed a bit surprised, pointing to his own nose with an unexpected tone.
Ji Yuan quickly nodded and helped him walk into the research room. "Of course I recognize you."
This was a top expert in the field of Materials Science, whose research on materials for Nuclear Submarines in the Eastern superpower was accomplished by this very person.
In that time of poverty, this expert completed what could be considered a miraculous project with just simple food and a draft notebook.
Originally, Ji Yuan was still worried about the critical 'Superalloy' for the 'Heavenly Craftsmanship' 7nm Lithography Machine. Now, with this expert's involvement, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Only by developing this new type of Alloy Material could the chip manufacturing precision be improved from the current 40nm to 7nm, truly giving the nation the strength to compete against global capital.
