365: Shock

"Currently, the funds are temporarily sufficient, but when the construction of the demonstration reactor truly begins, there might be some shortages."

Guo Hao looked at the Big Leader and said.

"Alright! If there's not enough then, just tell me anytime."

"Thank you, Big Leader."

Guo Hao said with a smile.

At this moment, the Leader hesitated slightly.

"Oh right, Professor Guo researched batteries before? That time during the CATL."

"I did indeed research it, what's wrong?"

Guo Hao was slightly taken aback, looked at the Big Leader, and asked with a hint of curiosity.

"If you have some free time, you could research batteries..."

The Big Leader hesitated slightly, looking at Guo Hao as he spoke.

"Currently, the domestic strategic direction is mainly focused on new energy electric vehicles."

However, regarding batteries, although there was the breakthrough from the project you did for the CATL before, the situation is still not particularly optimistic."

"So..."

"Understood!"

Guo Hao nodded.

Batteries are something that cannot be avoided, no matter when.

If battery energy storage is sufficient and safety is sufficient, then the progress of batteries is, to some extent, even more important for Dragon Country at this stage!

After all, for Dragon Country's industrial chain layout at this stage, electric vehicles are an important link.

In later generations, Dragon Country's electric vehicles developed extremely fast, and before Guo Hao's rebirth, Dragon Country's electric vehicles were already number one in the world!

They almost consumed seventy to eighty percent of the global electric vehicle market share, while electric vehicles from other countries' brands were practically not worth mentioning!

Therefore, the importance of battery development is almost beyond doubt!

Guo Hao also asked some questions about military equipment, inquiring about what Dragon Country currently mainly lacks.

"...On the military side, there's nothing particularly urgent at the moment."

The Big Leader smiled slightly.

"Right now, many projects are actually just one step away from completion, and within ten years, many things in Dragon Country will experience explosive growth."

The technical threshold is not that high; currently, the main issue is funding investment."

Hearing the Big Leader's words, Guo Hao instantly understood.

The upper echelons of Dragon Country are currently actually lying low, after all, openly increasing military spending now.

Will definitely alert various countries, especially Ugly Country.

At that time, it will cause Ugly Country to exert crazy pressure, putting a lot of strain on Dragon Country's economic development.

After all, currently, Dragon Country's economic development is still somewhat reliant on Ugly Country.

Therefore, Dragon Country is also unwilling to provoke a strong reaction from Ugly Country.

Naturally, military spending cannot be increased.

It can only be done slowly.

"However... military spending for this year and next year should be able to increase slightly!"

The Big Leader smiled.

"Those people should also support it!"

"That works then."

Guo Hao nodded.

In fact, in military technology, there aren't too many insurmountable technical problems, unless it's something like the Sixth-Generation Aircraft.

Otherwise, the difficulty of manufacturing is not particularly high.

It's simply a matter of funding investment.

Dragon Country's investment in this area has never been considered very high.

After chatting with the Big Leader for over two hours.

Guo Hao took his leave, not wanting to continue disturbing the Big Leader.

He went out and got back into the car.

"Whoosh!"

Guo Hao gently let out a breath.

"Xu Yuan, take me to Zizhu Mountain Villa."

The first experimental results for Controlled nuclear fusion were very good, except for the first wall, basically all reached the set standard values.

This situation basically met Guo Hao's expectations.

And this conversation with the Big Leader also resolved a knot in Guo Hao's heart.

He felt a great sense of relief in his heart now.

After being so busy for so long, Guo Hao also needed to rest a little.

"Okay, Professor Guo!"

Hearing Guo Hao's words, Xu Yuan's face was clearly much happier.

Because generally speaking, Professor Guo went to school for work, and to the fusion center for work as well.

Only when going to Zizhu Mountain Villa was it usually for rest, and even if there was work, it would definitely not be the main focus.

Therefore, Xu Yuan was quite happy when Guo Hao said he was going to Zizhu Mountain Villa.

The vehicle quickly arrived at Zizhu Mountain Villa.

Guo Hao got out of the car and walked into the villa.

Just as he entered the villa.

A drone flew in front of Guo Hao.

"Master, Master, you're back! Something happened in the underground Laboratory!"

Looking at the drone in front of him and hearing Xiao Xin's voice coming from the drone.

Guo Hao was slightly startled.

"What happened??"

"You should go down and take a look!"

At this moment, Guo Hao didn't dare to hesitate at all and couldn't bother with resting.

He quickly rushed towards the underground Laboratory.

On the way, Guo Hao listened as Xiao Xin roughly explained the current situation.

It turned out to be a mouse that had consumed Guo Hao's gene agent, and its genes had undergone tremendous changes.

Although Guo Hao hadn't had much time lately.

Xiao Xin basically helped with things in the villa, but the Type 2 gene agent was still developed.

The one that had the problem was a mouse that had been injected with the Type 2 gene agent a few days ago.

Guo Hao was very curious about what the limits of gene mutation could reach.

Doing this, Guo Hao wasn't just trying to uncover the mystery of lifespan.

There was also interest.

With the birth of the Type 1 gene agent, it itself stimulated Guo Hao's interest in Biology, and he was now extremely interested in Biology.

Therefore, even when he was very busy, he would make time to research Biology.

Soon, Guo Hao arrived at the underground Laboratory and saw that "mouse".

"No, Xiao Xin, are you sure you're not joking? Is that that mouse??"

Guo Hao looked with a strange expression at the "mouse" in front of him, which was confined in a glass room and was as huge as a bear.

"Master, look at its ears!"

Xiao Xin reminded Guo Hao.

Only then did Guo Hao notice that this giant bear-like mouse in front of him indeed had a mark on its ear, which he had made before.

His whole body trembled with shock.

It really was!

This was simply incredible!

A mouse could actually grow to such a large size, and by the looks of it, it didn't even resemble an Earth creature.

"Have you drawn blood?"

Guo Hao asked Xiao Xin, slightly excited.

"According to your instructions, blood was drawn at every stage, and it grew this big in three days."

It almost escaped, but luckily it didn't know how to take the elevator up.

I used a drone to guide it into this room."

Guo Hao glanced at some broken instruments nearby.

He nodded.

The traces were still very obvious.

"Amazing! Truly amazing! Gene mutation can actually reach this extent, it's simply a miracle of creation!"

Guo Hao was slightly excited.

At this moment, he couldn't even think about resting.

He quickly took out the blood from various evolutionary stages of this bear-like mouse from the side.

And began to analyze it.

This time, the situation with the bear-like mouse was different from the Type 1 gene agent; last time was a kind of atavistic awakening of ancestral gene expression deep within the genes.
