134: The mysterious organization confirmed its participation in the ceremony
Chapter 134: Mysterious Organization Confirmed to Attend Ceremony
Across the ocean.
LLNL Laboratory staff dormitory.
“May I ask… does your esteemed party have an interest?”
Lu Ze, lying on his bed, fell into deep thought as he looked at the line of text on the light screen.
‘An invitation to the 60th National Day ceremony?’
After Da Xia sent the invitation last time, he did not respond directly, neither agreeing nor refusing.
The main reason was that Lu Ze hadn't thought of any effective way to ensure absolute safety while getting 'personally' close to Da Xia.
Even during previous technology item transfers, he would first place the items and then notify Da Xia to pick them up.
However, attending an event like the National Day ceremony was completely different.
Members of the 'Great Wall Watch' Organization organization would have to reveal their true faces 'offline', which would pose a great risk even with the Glamour Mask.
And if even a low-level member dared not 'show their face', it would clearly not conform to the usual state of a large organization.
This was why Lu Ze had been hesitant about how to solve this problem.
However, this matter was no longer difficult now.
He smiled faintly, secretly pleased, ‘Fortunately, I drew this Doll, which finally solved this problem.’
‘Otherwise, I would probably need to rely on other means.’
Now that he had drawn the golden item, the Doll, even though it only had ‘one’ life and would die, get injured, etc., like a normal living being.
But at least, Lu Ze didn't have to worry about his personal safety, which was the most important thing.
‘In fact… in the outside world, this Doll is the controller and absolute high-level member of the 'Great Wall Watch' Organization.’
‘And I, will disguise myself as an ordinary middle-level cadre.’ Lu Ze muttered to himself.
In interactions with Da Xia and other countries or peripheral members, the most dangerous identity was undoubtedly the 'leader' of the organization.
This Doll could fully serve as the organization's plenipotentiary representative, handling all organizational matters by going out.
Lu Ze, on the other hand, could truly remain hidden behind the scenes, pulling the strings.
Even if 'leaked' information led to the Eagle Nation detecting him, it would only be a Doll that died, and he himself would not be harmed.
After all, no matter how rare a golden item was, it could never be more important than his own safety.
Thinking of this, he decisively replied with a line of text.
“Our side has confirmed the visit. The date will be before the National Day ceremony.”
“At that time, high-ranking members of the organization will arrive in Da Xia on time, and we hope that preparations can be made in advance to ensure all safety issues.”
In the top-secret liaison room.
Zhang Yuli, who had just opened the email, only glanced at it, and the joy on his face immediately made his entire face flush red.
His hands instantly clenched, causing his finger joints to creak.
He quickly typed a line of text in response.
“Da Xia welcomes your esteemed party's arrival and will greet you with the highest level of protocol.”
“And we absolutely guarantee all safety measures, strictly prohibiting the occurrence of any problems.”
Looking at his expression, Zheng Lixing knew what had happened without even thinking.
He quickly leaned over, staring at the lines of text on the screen, and asked somewhat hesitantly, “Their organization agreed???”
“They just agreed like that?”
“Yes, they have agreed to visit and participate in the festival celebration.”
Zhang Yuli nodded, equally surprised by the outcome.
He had originally thought that the 'Great Wall Watch' Organization organization would need a long period of consideration before finally deciding whether to participate.
This was also the usual etiquette for visits, often requiring communication several months or even a year in advance, and then setting a time for the visit.
An organization like 'Great Wall Watch' Organization, with its capabilities and power, might not be weaker than many regional great powers.
However, unexpectedly, this invitation went quite smoothly.
Zheng Lixing made an initial judgment: “It seems the ‘leader’ of this organization has a high degree of trust and favorability towards Da Xia.”
“Otherwise, they wouldn’t have agreed so readily. We must do a good job with the preparations.”
“Yes, I will report to my superiors shortly.” Zhang Yuli responded.
For such a major event as the 'Great Wall Watch' Organization organization attending the ceremony, whether it's the arrangement of security work or various state guest etiquette procedures and so on.
The level of reception required will far exceed the authority that he, as a director of the Xia Academy of Sciences, can handle.
How to handle such a 'headache' of a reception, it's better to let the higher-ups discuss it.
Zheng Lixing took a sip of the tea placed beside him and said leisurely, “Then there’s another issue.”
“What issue?” Zhang Yuli frowned in confusion.
Hearing this, Zheng Lixing glanced at him: “How should we handle this wasp-class amphibious assault ship right now?”
“How do we continue to develop a new warship project? How should it be built? What is the plan?”
“This also needs to be planned in advance. Are you planning to delay it?”
Currently, Da Xia has quite a few projects under development, and even the navy is developing the ‘Varyag aircraft carrier’, the ‘052D destroyer’, and so on. There were also plans for the development of amphibious assault ships, which had even been put on the superiors' desk long ago.
It's just that Da Xia currently has too many projects under development, and everything hasn't had time to be developed yet.
But now that things have suddenly happened, there's no way to keep delaying it.
“That’s true… It’s time for Da Xia’s amphibious assault ship to be developed.” Zhang Yuli nodded in agreement.
This was Da Xia's previous plan. Now that the other organization has submitted the wasp-class amphibious assault ship technology, a complete research and development technical route is already in place, and it even thoughtfully includes 'advanced electromagnetic catapult' technology.
Are we saying that we still need to wait another year or two before starting to develop Da Xia's amphibious assault ship?
Isn't that wasting their good intentions?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuli's eyes narrowed: “Old Zheng, do you have any good ideas? Who should lead this project?”
The first thing that needed to be determined was which research institute would lead the development of this project.
“701 Research Institute definitely won’t work.” Zheng Lixing immediately rejected this.
It's not that the 701 Ship Design and Research Institute lacks research and development capabilities; on the contrary, it is currently the undisputed leader in Da Xia's shipbuilding industry, known as the 'cradle of Da Xia's warships.' Design directors who originated from the 701 Research Institute can be found in almost all major warship projects in the country.
The key issue is… the 701 Research Institute is currently leading the modification work for the Varyag aircraft carrier. If it were to simultaneously undertake the two major tasks of developing the amphibious assault ship, it would be asking too much.
“713 Research Institute is working on the 052D, and amphibious assault ships are not their strong suit.”
Zheng Lixing seemed to be in deliberation as well. After a thorough screening, he finally selected a research institute.
He looked at Zhang Yuli with excitement and stated his answer: “708 Research Institute, didn’t that old Chen guy always want to build an ‘amphibious assault ship’?”
The 708 Ship Design and Research Institute in Modu, although not as 'renowned' as the 701 Research Institute, is also an old research institute established for decades, and its own strength should not be underestimated.
In fact, for comprehensive warships like 'amphibious assault ships', their research and development results might even be better than those of the 701 Research Institute.
And Old Chen's personal ability goes without saying; he has participated in the research and development of many of Da Xia's previous warships, just lacking an opportunity.
Immediately, Zhang Yuli agreed, “Good, I will report it immediately.”
He didn't even wait to return to his director's office, but immediately picked up the paper and pen beside him and began to write a 'draft of the situation report'.
However, the first point at the top was neither the several technologies provided this time, nor the research and development opinions regarding the amphibious assault ship.
Instead, it was a key report that the 'Great Wall Watch' Organization agreed to visit Da Xia and requested that preparations be made.
Zhang Yuli's report, after being submitted, quickly received a brief response.
Even with punctuation, the answer was only ten characters long.
That was it.
“Do your utmost, no oversights.”
Although there were few words, those who understood the inside story were not negligent in the slightest.
After all, according to Da Xia's custom, the fewer the words, the bigger the matter.
This short line of text meant that anyone who dared to obstruct would be the 'mortal enemy' of all Da Xia!
Even though it was only early July, and there were still two and a half months until the grand ceremony, some preparatory work had clearly already begun.
Almost every subordinate department throughout Da Xia, from top to bottom, received an instruction to varying degrees.
At 1 PM.
At this moment.
In Yan Jing City, during rush hour, almost every traffic route was busy and congested.
Suddenly, many people noticed a significant increase in cleaning personnel on the streets and alleys.
If they were ordinary sanitation workers, they wouldn't find it particularly strange, but this time the situation was clearly a bit different.
The next day.
Eagle Nation, Livermore.
This morning, a vigorous campaign was also underway.
Various flags fluttered over the small town, and more than five or six hundred people chanted slogans in unison.
What these people wanted to do was also to clean up 'garbage'!
Only, the name of the garbage they wanted to sweep away was…
“Capitalist”!
