72: Chapter 72 Performance Upgrade! Military Aircraft Have Arrived?

Upon receiving permission from Xu Hao, Actor Wu Jing was overjoyed. He hurried forward, took a set of Powered Exoskeleton Mecha from the soldier's hands, and began putting it on himself.

However.

Since this was his first time encountering such a high-tech gadget, and although the structure of the Exoskeleton Mecha looked simple, putting it on alone required mastering certain techniques.

Consequently, Actor Wu Jing was fumbling around in a panic and couldn't get it on after struggling for a long time.

Xu Hao shook his head helplessly. "Let me help you!"

He made a move to step forward and help Actor Wu Jing put it on, but was stopped by a hand from Zhu Deze.

"Let me do it! Just leave this kind of manual labor to me!"

Zhu Deze chuckled, immediately stepped forward, picked up the scattered components, and skillfully helped Actor Wu Jing put it on.

Seeing this, Actor Wu Jing nodded at him gratefully.

Zhu Deze remained unmoved, his face even showing a hint of smugness, as if to say: "How about that? I'm a pro, right?"

If not for the fact that there were too many people around, he would have really wanted to brag to Actor Wu Jing that he was the first person to truly experience the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha.

After Actor Wu Jing finished putting on the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha, Zhu Deze retreated to Xu Hao's side.

Wearing it for the first time, Actor Wu Jing didn't dare to act rashly and could only move his limbs simply.

He thought that by wearing these external objects resembling 'armor,' his limb movements would become very clumsy.

But after experiencing it for a while, he realized that the imagined difficulty in movement simply did not exist.

On the contrary.

After putting it on, his joint movements became even more flexible, as if an invisible force was driving him.

Actor Wu Jing's eyes lit up instantly. "What a wonderful feeling!"

He exclaimed in wonder and began performing various movements with a wider range.

Marching in place, the speed was flying!

Standing long jump—with one leap, good heavens, he jumped five meters away, startling all the crew members gathered in front of him.

"Director Wu, why did you jump so far? You almost hit me!"

This female staff member patted her chest, looking terrified, with a trace of shock on her face.

Who could have imagined that just a moment ago, Director Wu had just lightly hopped and landed directly in front of her.

That distance was five meters!!

Actor Wu Jing was also shocked; he hadn't intended to jump that far at all, just a simple leap forward like he was playing around.

With a 'whoosh,' it felt as if there was an internal force in his knee joints pushing him to jump far away; he hadn't even noticed it himself before he had already leaped out.

"This... this is so strong!"

Standing five meters away, with his feet buried deep in the gravel, Actor Wu Jing looked back at the spot where he had just taken off, his face filled with disbelief.

"If I wore this to take a physical fitness test, wouldn't I just crush everything?"

Actor Wu Jing said jokingly, then returned to the side of Xu Hao and the others.

Zhu Deze had taken in Actor Wu Jing's performance just now, and a flash of surprise crossed his eyes.

Although he had experienced it personally before, this iteration of the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha was clearly much stronger than the last.

Judging by Actor Wu Jing's performance just now, the auxiliary power had increased by at least more than double.

Furthermore, the connectivity between the joints had also strengthened significantly, becoming much more flexible.

"It looks like the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha will be fully upgraded before long!"

Zhu Deze pondered to himself.

The current mobility and flexibility of the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha made him even more eager to have his troops equipped with it as soon as possible.

If his men all wore the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha, their combat power would skyrocket directly, and taking on three enemies at once would be a breeze!

Even combat squads that were originally composed of four people could now be organized into groups of three.

The combat power would remain unchanged, but the number of combat squads could increase significantly.

Thinking of this, the thought in his mind became even more intense.

"I must get my men equipped with the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha as soon as possible!"

With his mind made up, he was determined.

However, he suddenly thought.

Isn't he currently by Xu Hao's side, serving in the dual capacity of escort and protection?

If he could communicate well with Xu Hao, perhaps he could pull some strings and get his men equipped earlier.

"This is a great opportunity! The person closest to the water enjoys the moon first!"

Zhu Deze was secretly delighted.

It would be absolutely impossible for other units to have this opportunity.

Even those people in Longdu didn't have as good an opportunity as he did.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to escort the film props, he could build a good relationship with Xu Hao, and perhaps this matter would be settled.

Moreover, given the Doomsday Vehicle, A-225 Transport Aircraft, Exoskeleton Mecha, and future surreal large-scale mechas designed and built by Xu Hao, it was enough to prove that Xu Hao was a master at the forefront of technology.

Regardless, building a good relationship with him would be a guaranteed win.

"Hehe... that's what I'll do."

Zhu Deze thought happily to himself.

After hopping back and forth a few times, Actor Wu Jing rushed out of the crowd and ran a few laps on the desert gravel road.

The speed was so fast that the crew members could only see a blur.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought it was special effects!

It was too fast, just like a car speeding on a highway, whistling past and kicking up a gust of wind.

After running a few laps, Actor Wu Jing returned to the side of Xu Hao and the others, and reluctantly took off the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha.

He looked at this simple yet powerful Exoskeleton Mecha, feeling full of affection for it.

"Chairman Xu, can this Powered Exoskeleton Mecha be custom-made? I want to get one for myself!"

Actor Wu Jing looked at Xu Hao with anticipation.

If he could wear the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha, what action movie couldn't he perform in? What martial arts movie couldn't he fight in?

With this thing, he could take on ten people alone!

Hearing Actor Wu Jing's words, before Xu Hao could speak, Zhu Deze was unhappy.

"This is a military exclusive; it cannot be supplied to the market for the time being!"

Zhu Deze glared at Actor Wu Jing.

Asking for equipment right in front of him?

His men hadn't even been equipped yet...

Xu Hao also nodded. "Sorry, Director Wu, it is currently still in the testing phase. Bringing it here this time was mainly to cooperate with the The Wandering Earth and let you conduct a real-person test."

"Once the testing is flawless, the full upgrade and modification are complete, and it is prioritized for military equipment, only then will we consider a small amount of market release!"

Xu Hao said apologetically.

If it were before, he would certainly have been willing to release it directly to the market.

But after consultations and negotiations with relevant departments of Long Country, it was decided that the Exoskeleton Mecha is a military product and cannot enter the market.

Even if it were to enter the market in the future, some functions would need to be neutered, and the technology would need to be locked down.

Hearing this, Actor Wu Jing's face showed some disappointment, but he nodded helplessly.

There was no other way; the Long Country authorities required it. Even if Engineer Xu wanted to sell it to him, he couldn't violate Long Country's regulations.

However, thinking that he could wear the Powered Exoskeleton Mecha during filming made him feel much better.

"I will definitely make the most of this Exoskeleton during filming!"

Actor Wu Jing laughed, instantly letting it go.

Xu Hao also nodded with a smile.

After the experience was over, the crew members felt that the matter had come to an end and planned to move all these props into the garage.

However, just at this moment, four black dots suddenly appeared on the horizon.

At the same time, a low roar slowly reached everyone's ears from the sky.

Involuntarily, everyone present looked up at the sky.

"Look! fighter jets!"

A crew member exclaimed.

"No! Not just fighter jets! There are two large Transport Aircraft following behind!!"

As this person shouted, the four black dots gradually became clear.

In the azure sky, two of Long Country's latest fighter jets were leading the way, accompanied by the sound of a dragon's roar, flying in from the horizon.

Behind them, two large Transport Aircraft resembling Kunpeng were following closely.

Seeing this scene, everyone was instantly stunned!

"What's going on? Military aircraft are here too?!"
