A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

Instead of getting angry after hearing what Teacher Yuanjiu said, Jiang Xia gave him a thumbs up.

"This name sounds nice, let's call this car 'Imperial Palace'!"

"Please take a look. The vehicle structure is fine. But I think there's room for improvement in the integrated control system."

"Hmm? I can help you take a look, but what are you here for?" Teacher Yuanjiu frowned, thought for a moment, and then sighed.

"Alright, alright. With your contribution, even if this car were twice as big, the higher-ups would probably still approve, hey. But kid, remember, you came from the people, so you still need to..." Teacher Yuanjiu said, picking up his teacup.

"Hey, Mr. Yuanjiu. Where did you go? Well, it was to exchange some foreign exchange! These new trucks are eye-catching, aren't they? You could sell one for a million dollars, right?"

"Besides, a five-axis machining center is different from a three-axis one. Without some research funding, how can you possibly develop one? It's not like a bathhouse masseur scrubbing away dirt..."

"Pfft~~~" Teacher Yuan Jiu spat out a mouthful of honey water. "Foreign exchange? A million dollars! Where did you find such a sucker?"

"I even widened my tires to make them wider so I could travel in the desert. I just don't know if the tire factory can make them..." Little Dai Mao started to gloat again, but he didn't mention a word about not having started to connect with "a piece of cloth on his head" yet.

No big problem, we can handle it.

After all, if the other side dared to send a prince out to wander around, they must want to change the status quo.

Didn't you see Iceland's fishing prowess give the lobster nation a sound thrashing? The cod wars and such have certainly opened up new avenues of thought for developing countries.

Especially Fahd, he's no pushover. Want the magic weapon? You'll have to pay a friend's fee first.

"A million dollars? Hmm! I've always argued that the experimental conditions and facilities for researchers need to keep up! High-precision inertial instruments aren't something that can just spring up with slogans!"

Teacher Yuanjiu's cheeks flushed slightly. "Kalman filter and all that, I really want one!"

If this "palace" can actually be sold, then...

Teacher Yuan wiped his mouth, lowered his head to examine the blueprints, and knew that this was a matter of great importance and could not be taken lightly!

"Air suspension? Disc brakes? Interesting, very interesting. You're planning to integrate all these functions into the center console? That's a bit of a hassle. Individual operation is fine, but this centralized control, this non-linear control system?"

Brother Shousong also peeked in, then nudged his supervisor: "Teacher, there's something I haven't told Xiao Jiang yet!"

Without even looking up, Teacher Yuan waved to Jiang Xia and then pointed to Brother Shousong: "Starting today, Shousong will help you organize your manuscripts. He'll be temporarily affiliated with the steel rolling mill as a level 10 clerk. The organizational order will be issued soon; you two can discuss it yourselves!"

"Huh? What manuscript?" Jiang Xia was a little confused. He had only written a paper on lasers recently, and he didn't seem to have touched anything else.

Brother Shousong pulled on his satchel, took out a large stack of handwritten manuscripts, and handed them to Jiang Xia.

"Your 'unit analysis method'! These are all transcripts of speeches compiled by relevant colleagues. They submitted them, and I organized them according to different disciplines..."

"Jiang, you're amazing!"

"Also, I extracted the central idea and, following your unit analysis method, readjusted some content regarding automation and control from your side. Please give me your feedback!"

As he spoke, Brother Shousong took out another stack of manuscripts, placed them on the table, and pushed them toward Jiangxia.

Seeing the "founding master" looking at him with a complicated expression, the little guy with the ahoge felt like he was about to fly away...

I picked up the manuscript, and hey, the handwriting is really beautiful!

"Hey, I wouldn't call it correction, let's learn from each other!"

I glanced at the table of contents, and wow, no wonder he's the founder; people are already starting to learn from foreign books.

The first chapter is the essence of automation design: design and synthesis.

However, why didn't you put the open-loop frequency domain metrics and closed-loop frequency domain metrics, those things that make you want to tear your head off, in the second chapter?

And then there's the concept of system modes—we really need to help students connect the general solution of differential equations with the system in advance! The system mode shapes and such are just so authentic!

Although these are all graduate-level subjects, Jiang Xia believes that the majority of students are able to accept the shift of knowledge to earlier levels!

Oh, ho ho ho ho!

Tremble!

Go and solve differential equations, you lot!

Putting down the manuscript, Jiang Xia flashed eight gleaming white teeth: "Brother Shousong, have you heard of fuzzy control, neural network control, and adaptive control? I have some preliminary thoughts on these!"

"No! But I can learn!" Brother Shousong took out paper and pen, looking like a good student.

"No rush, could you teach me a couple of classes first? Our workers have their exams coming up soon, so I need to teach them how to answer the questions!"

"Eh?"

Just as Jiang Xia was using his linguistic talent to try and persuade the two big shots to come to the factory, the phone rang.

Secretary Liu quickly stepped forward, answered the phone, whispered a few words, and glanced tactfully at the two big shots in the office.

"Comrades, Jiang Gong has made an important call. Could you two please come over here..."

Professor Yuan Jiu snapped out of his daze and immediately stood up: "Okay, Xiao Jiang, I need to take this control chart back and think about it. I'll see if I can start a research group on it. I'm still undecided about the cross-control part!"

"Alright! Do as you please!"

"I'm leaving, no need to see me off. Shousong will stay with you!"

The phone call was urgent, so Jiang Xia could only bow respectfully to Teacher Yuanjiu and ask the old man to take care.

Take care?

Ha, Teacher Yuanjiu ran incredibly fast carrying some of the blueprints; he was much more energetic going down the stairs than that wobbly little guy.

Jiang Xia nudged Secretary Liu: "Hey, why don't you chase after them and make them recite the confidentiality regulations?"

"Tsk, go ahead and answer your call. Do you think I'm the only one in the organization?"

After tidying up the drafts on the desk, Secretary Liu pulled Brother Shousong outside, saying, "Come on, let's prepare an office for you."

The office fell silent, and Jiang Xia picked up the phone.

"Xiao Jiang?"

"Yes! And you are?"

"I'm Teacher Guo! Long time no see!"

"Oh!" Hearing Teacher Guo's voice, Jiang Xia finally realized what was happening. She wanted to ask if her father could go home, but she was afraid of causing trouble for Teacher Guo.

Teacher Guo was silent for a moment before speaking, "I know what you want to ask. All I can say is, they are all fine!"

"Oh, especially one of the older ladies, she made whale-filled dumplings for her precious Gada. He'll probably receive them in a few days. It was a special order from the boss, only one order."

"Master's wife..."

Listening to the heavy breathing on the other end of the phone, Teacher Guo's emotions were also churning. She paused again before continuing, "I know what you did. Jiang Dong is a good kid, and so are you..."

"Thank you!"

Then, both sides of the phone fell silent.

It wasn't until a few faint tapping sounds came through the microphone that the two of them regained their composure.

"Okay, I'm calling you to tell you the results of the experiment on ultra-long-distance computer communication!"

"The experiment was unsuccessful!"

"what!"

Jiang Xia jolted awake, immediately snapping out of her reverie. Her pupils dilated instantly.

"What went wrong?"
