76: Chapter 76 Departure, Mech Test Successful

The investors still did not know what had happened and stared at Zhu Deze in a daze.

Feeling the cold and murderous aura emanating from him, they were instantly choked up, not daring to say a word.

Even their feet felt as if they were glued to the ground; they dared not move at all.

"Take them away!"

Zhu Deze said to the Security Bureau law enforcement officers who had just walked in.

"Yes!"

Two law enforcement officers each grabbed an investor, dragging them out of the production set to conduct an investigation and interrogation.

The entire process was completely efficient and clean, without any hesitation.

The crew members were not at all unfamiliar with seeing this.

They had already experienced such scenes a few days ago.

However, their treatment was much better compared to these investors.

At least they wouldn't be scared like this...

About an hour passed.

The investors returned after being investigated and came back to the production set.

Compared to before, they were obviously much more 'well-behaved'.

The look of unruliness and arrogance was gone from their faces.

Instead, they kept smiles on their faces at all times, smiling warmly even when facing the crew members.

When they saw Xu Hao, the smiles on their faces became even brighter, carrying a hint of ingratiation.

Looking at the image on the screen, he praised Xu Hao:

"Chairman Xu, your... uh... props are amazing!!"

The investor laughed, pausing noticeably when mentioning the props.

Now he finally understood; these were clearly not props, they were the real deal!

Only they were foolish enough to think these were props just a moment ago.

After praising Xu Hao, the investor continued:

"If we're talking about The Wandering Earth seeking your cooperation, they really made the right choice."

"After all, which corporate partner could produce such props?"

"I believe with the addition of the props you created, The Wandering Earth will definitely be a huge hit, haha..."

The investor spoke to himself, his every word flattering Xu Hao.

Xu Hao responded with a smile, just nodding and giving a couple of 'mm-hms', without replying much.

Seeing his reaction, the investor chuckled awkwardly and didn't dare to say anything else.

Then, they looked at Director Guo Fan and instructed:

"Director Guo Fan, you are in full charge of the production matters; you must strictly control quality and strive for excellence!"

"Also, Chairman Xu has come personally to supervise the work, so you must entertain him well and not show any neglect!"

After speaking, the investors politely said goodbye to Xu Hao, and the group hurried away.

...

Unknowingly, Xu Hao had already stayed with the The Wandering Earth production crew for half a month.

Xu Hao felt he had rested enough and planned to return.

That day, just after waking up, Xu Hao received a call from Wang Qian.

"Hello, Chairman Xu, Professor Shen asked me to tell you that there is new progress in the encrypted workshop!"

Wang Qian's pleasant voice came from the phone.

"Oh? So fast?!"

Xu Hao paused while getting dressed and said, somewhat pleasantly surprised.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Hao decided, "How about this, I will rush back to Xu's Heavy Industry today!"

"Really? That's great!" Wang Qian blurted out. After saying it, she immediately regretted it, her face turning red in a flash, and she hurriedly tried to explain: "I mean, it's great that Chairman Xu can come back to guide the work!"

Wang Qian crossed her legs, touching her hot, red face, feeling extremely ashamed.

Why was she suddenly so excited?

And Chairman Xu heard it too, it was so embarrassing...

Xu Hao hadn't expected Wang Qian to be so suddenly excited; he awkwardly rubbed his nose, chatted a few more sentences, and then hung up the phone.

After lunch, Xu Hao and his party set off back to Xu's Heavy Industry.

Zhu Deze left behind ten Security Bureau law enforcement officers to assist with the security investigation.

At the same time, he also left ten military personnel stationed at the production set to prevent any accidents.

Xu Hao, Zhu Deze, and the others took a private plane and flew back to Xu's Heavy Industry.

As soon as he got off the plane, Xu Hao rushed to the mecha workshop.

Just as he entered the workshop and saw Xu Hao walking in, Li Ping and several interns rushed over, saying ecstatically:

"Engineer Xu, all the mecha system modules have been assembled; we can conduct a comprehensive test!"

The three of them followed Xu Hao, explaining as they walked.

Professor Shen Hongcai and several other Old Professors also stopped what they were doing and said to Xu Hao:

"Engineer Xu, we have been working day and night during this period and have finally completed all the modules."

"Now, we can conduct a comprehensive test at any time!!"

Professor Shen Hongcai's face looked a bit tired, but when talking about the mecha, his eyes shone, and he was obviously very excited too.

Professor He Jianhua and Professor Cao Gang had similar expressions.

Xu Hao nodded heavily, staring for a long time at the almost-formed large mecha, then withdrew his gaze to look at the professors and the interns.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work! Tomorrow, we will conduct the comprehensive test!!"

Xu Hao ordered.

Hearing this, everyone was delighted and full of anticipation.

After chatting for a while, everyone left the mecha workshop early to go back and rest, planning to come back tomorrow morning for the comprehensive test.

The next day.

Mecha workshop.

Xu Hao and the others arrived early.

At this moment, on the large operating platform, the mecha's internal and external core system modules, as well as the ten major terminal systems, had all been assembled.

Although it looked a bit messy, it was already the complete form of the mecha.

If there were no issues with the comprehensive test, they could proceed with finishing and organizing it later.

At that time, it would be the complete form of the surreal sci-fi mecha.

"Test begin!"

At Xu Hao's command, all system modules were powered on, all testing machines were running, and they were monitoring the data in real-time.

"Beep..."

"Internal core system is operating normally, all data is at standard values!"

"Master control system is normal, conducting multiple functional tests!"

"Transmission system is normal, transmission device is running perfectly!"

"Control system is normal..."

"Energy system is normal..."

"..."

Three interns were present: two were monitoring in real-time, and one was broadcasting the test situation in real-time.

As each 'normal' broadcast came through, the mood in the mecha workshop became more and more elevated.

In the end, as the mecha's modules ran for thirty minutes without a single fault report, Li Ping finally announced:

"All mecha system modules have been tested, everything is normal, the test is a perfect success!"

When he said this, his voice trembled, and he couldn't suppress the excitement and agitation on his face.

Xu Hao nodded heavily and shook hands with Professor Shen Hongcai, Professor He Jianhua, and Professor Cao Gang one by one.

He took the lead in applauding, and everyone stood solemnly, clapping with all their might; the applause echoed throughout the entire mecha workshop.

"Everyone, we succeeded!!"

Xu Hao shouted loudly.

His voice seemed to ignite the atmosphere in the workshop, and the interns, who could no longer hold back, shouted aloud:

"We succeeded!"

"We did it!"

"The first-generation mecha was born in our hands!"

After celebrating for a long time, everyone finally returned to calm.

The mecha project had come to a pause, and Xu Hao told everyone to rest well for a period of time.

At this time, Professor Shen Hongcai finally had time to pick up his phone and hurriedly dialed Professor Zhou Xuemin's number to share the good news.

When the call connected, his first sentence was:

"Professor Zhou, the mecha project is a success!"

"What? It's a success?!" Professor Zhou Xuemin immediately stood up from his chair, his face full of excitement.

"That's right, we conducted a comprehensive test today, there were no faults at all, we... we successfully developed it!"

By the end, Professor Shen Hongcai's voice was trembling slightly.

"Good! Good! That's great!" Professor Zhou Xuemin said 'good' repeatedly, sighing in amazement continuously.

The two chatted for a long time, and after hanging up, Professor Zhou Xuemin immediately reported to his superiors.

Hearing that the mecha development was successful, the old man was also very happy.

He indicated that he wanted to specially commend Xu Hao and also consulted Professor Zhou Xuemin for his opinion on what reward would be good for Xu Hao.

"Xu Hao seems to have always been interested in a military industry license; why not grant Xu's Heavy Industry a military industry license?"

The old man pondered for a long time and nodded, "That is acceptable."

After waiting for a while, he added: "When you have time, have that child Xu Hao come to Longdu for a visit; I will host him personally."

Hearing this, Professor Zhou Xuemin's heart trembled, and the wrinkles on his face quivered.

The old man was actually inviting Xu Hao personally?

This was likely an unprecedented event!

Professor Zhou Xuemin understood immediately and politely hung up the phone.

Immediately after, he calmed his mood, picked up the phone again, and dialed Xu Hao's number.
