283: On the demonstration plan of mecha
That night, after Su Yu landed in Kyoto, he was immediately picked up by personnel from the relevant departments and taken to the military district.
Where is the safest place in the world? Naturally, it's Kyoto. And what part of Kyoto is the safest? Besides Zhonghai, it's the military district!
Yesterday's terrorist attack had already sounded the alarm for National Security and the police.
It should be noted that ever since all weapons were banned, such incidents had not occurred for many years.
Fortunately, no casualties were reported after the incident, only widespread damage to public buildings and facilities.
If these terrorists had targeted ordinary people, the consequences would have been unpredictable!
Unbeknownst to them, Su Yu and his nano mecha, instead of being the fuse for this terrorist attack, became the heroes who ultimately turned the tide.
However, even though there were no fatalities, this large-scale terrorist attack, with its heinous nature, immediately drew the nation's attention.
Through investigation and interrogation, they quickly uncovered the full story.
Su Yu surprisingly had a bounty of up to five billion on the external network, which completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
Although the relevant personnel from National Security had always been responsible for monitoring Su Yu's every move, performing the task of covert protection, this Global Robot Competition made them all drop their guard and become negligent.
And it was precisely this negligence that almost led to a tragedy.
Therefore, now, whenever Su Yu goes out, countless eyes will be secretly watching him, ensuring his safety.
Even within China, National Security personnel dared not be careless in the slightest.
However, once he entered the military district, Su Yu's safety was no longer their concern; others would take over their mission... Not long after, a black jeep stopped in front of an administrative building.
Led by a soldier, Su Yu quickly arrived at an office.
On the way there, he had inquired about Duan Zhongping's identity from the people in the car, only to find out that the seemingly amiable middle-aged man was actually the second person in charge of this parade ceremony.
His military rank was astonishingly high!
Moreover, Old Duan, who appeared to be forty or fifty, was actually over sixty years old.
At eleven o'clock at night, the sky above the military district was clear with sparse stars, yet the administrative building was brightly lit, as if everyone was working tirelessly to prepare for the upcoming parade ceremony.
Duan Zhongping sat at his desk, signing documents one after another, his tired eyes bloodshot. Beside him, two slightly younger subordinates stood ramrod straight.
"Xiao Li, I presume you've heard about the terrorist attack that happened in Modu today."
"I personally traveled to invite the young man who created the nano mecha. Once he arrives, you will be responsible for coordinating with him."
"As for when he will appear and where he will appear, you two can negotiate it yourselves."
The officer named Xiao Li immediately responded decisively, "Yes, Old Duan!"
Following that, Duan Zhongping looked up and turned his gaze to the other person.
"Xiao Liu, as the head of the external publicity department for this parade ceremony, the final project announcement for the parade ceremony also needs to be adjusted to accommodate the inclusion of the mecha."
The other young officer also stood tall and saluted.
"Yes, Old Duan!"
No sooner had he spoken than there was a knock on the office door.
Duan Zhongping smiled and answered, then the door slowly opened, and Su Yu walked in, led by the reception soldier.
"Mr. Su, we meet again!"
Su Yu also nodded in greeting.
"Hello, Old Duan, I've brought everything this time. What do you need me to do now?"
Duan Zhongping pointed to the two people standing aside.
"Li Zhengguo and Liu Qiang, they are from the program arrangement group and the external publicity department, respectively. The specific matters will be handled by you all later."
"If you encounter anything you can't resolve, feel free to find me."
Su Yu nodded upon hearing this.
He knew that Duan Zhongping held a high position and had many military matters to attend to, so he didn't linger too long.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, he left the office with the two younger officers and found a quiet place to discuss the official rehearsal.
When Li Zhengguo and Liu Qiang heard that Su Yu had not just brought one mecha, but a full twelve, both of them were stunned.
Li Zhengguo had initially hoped that Su Yu could make an appearance before the display of the J-series aircraft.
After all, they both fly in the sky, so combining them seemed logical.
He could even wear the mecha, lead the way, and open the curtain for the aerial formation display.
But twelve mechas could already form a square formation! This immediately made him abandon his original idea.
Liu Qiang also frowned in thought, wondering how he should release his promotional announcement later.
Should he directly announce that a mecha formation would join the parade ceremony?!
No, that would immediately spoil the sense of mystery.
But if he didn't inform the media that mechas would appear in the parade ceremony, that also seemed problematic.
Hiss! Difficult!
"Mr. Su, do you have any better suggestions for the mecha demonstration? If it's just simply flying over Tianmen Square, it feels no different from a fighter jet, and it wouldn't showcase the mecha's uniqueness."
Li Zhengguo expressed his concerns.
Because he didn't understand what functions these mechas had, he naturally wasn't sure how to display them at the parade ceremony.
This question also stumped Su Yu.
Good heavens, there's no benchmark for this. Looking across the globe, it seems there's no precedent for mechas participating in a parade ceremony.
Su Yu also fell into deep contemplation for a while.
Besides basic flight capabilities, mechas also have weapon systems and artificial intelligence systems, but these are not very suitable for live demonstrations.
He couldn't possibly, on the day of the parade ceremony, wear the nano battle armor and shout from the sky, "Lackey! Show everyone your computing power!"
And then the Lackey would perform advanced arithmetic and calculus calculations live.
Hmm, if there really had to be something special about the mecha display, then transformation could probably barely count as a highlight.
As everyone knows.
In mecha movies, what people often look forward to most isn't the moment the mecha defeats the villain. Instead, it's the cool entrance when the mecha appears, coupled with an exciting BGM and a cool transformation β simply invincible, right?
If you could actually see this performance in reality, it would make boys scream with excitement, their adrenaline surging!
So, why not just perform the mecha transformation directly at the parade ceremony?
That's a good idea.
After all, the twelve mechas all have different transformation methods. If they were all to perform, it would be enough to display for a while. And if all of them were deployed, Su Yu could even try to combine them to form the ultimate version of the mecha!
