The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 964 - 963. Tang Shu = Consultant Tang?!

The design department of Xu Corporation was particularly lively today, with an atmosphere akin to that of a festival throughout the whole morning.

One could tell from the eyes full of eager anticipation of several chief designers that today’s work efficiency was likely double the usual.

"This is by no means an exaggeration; you have to know that the people coming to guide us this afternoon are from the National Mechanical Research Institute!"

As someone who had joined the company three years ago, but still considered a newcomer in this industry, Qiu Xin made such a comment. The name National Mechanical Research Institute was sacred in his heart, just like Imperial University which recruits only a few hundred people each year, appeared to those students about to take their university entrance exams, an object of endless yearning.

"It’s said that the personnel in the institute are very stable, with single-digit recruitment numbers each year, and I’ve heard that they haven’t hired anyone in the mechanical field for many years."

Qiu Xin, clutching the freshly-printed materials, spoke with longing, "And most of them are directly recruited from the scientific research personnel of Jun Ministry, with very few being hired from outside. Yet, I’m going to meet one today!"

Designer Zhou, who was over forty, although excited, felt overwhelmed both mentally and physically after being chattered at by his assistant all morning.

——Young people are really too noisy.

"Take a break, Xiaoxin. I’ve never seen you work as hard as you have today."

If he was always like this, he would have been a listed designer by now, rather than still assisting a chief designer like him.

Qiu Xin smiled awkwardly and made a zipping motion over his mouth with one hand, signaling he’d keep quiet. However, as he turned away, the excitement on his face was still evident, visible to anyone.

This enthusiasm persisted until 1:30 in the afternoon when a notification call from the gatehouse to the design department had Qiu Xin unable to sit still anymore.

"Engineer Zhou, let me go and welcome the advisory consultant. I want to go!"

"That excited?"

Designer Zhou looked at the young man standing before him, smiling as he also put down the work he was busy with.

"Yeah, yeah!"

"Then you go with Xiao Zhao and Xiao Wu —— be polite, I hope you can make the consultant realize that it was correct for the research institute to choose Xu Factory."

"No problem!"

"I’ll give President Xu a call, this is the first time someone from the Mechanical Research Institute has visited, and President Xu had said he would receive them personally."

"Ok, Engineer Zhou, I will take the consultant directly to the factory side."

Qiu Xin followed behind the other two designers, who were dressed in suits, trotting excitedly towards the main gate, chattering all the way.

"I heard the consultant’s surname is Tang, so should we address him as Consultant Tang?"

"To be involved in the research and development of fighter jet engines and wings, what kind of profound professional knowledge must one have~~~"

"And I wonder how many years this gentleman has worked at the research institute? However, to achieve the qualifications to participate in the design of fighter jets, I presume his individual capacity must be outstanding!"

The trio soon appeared on the street leading to the main gate, standing straight and looking forward with anticipation. Before long, they saw a girl dressed rather formally appearing in their view.

"Eh? Did our company recently recruit another batch of interns? It’s rare to see a beauty in this sci-tech dominated company, well, except for President Xu, hehehe~~~"

"Wow, that beauty is heading our way, if it wasn’t for today’s important matters, I would definitely go up and strike up a conversation!"

That’s right, the intern beauty might have probably, perhaps, caught a cold, covering her face with a disposable medical mask, revealing only a pair of bright eyes, very attractive.

"Hello, are you Consultant Tang from the Mechanical Research Institute?"

Don’t get it wrong, this question would definitely not come from Qiu Xin, but rather Designer Zhao.

Of course, for Engineer Zhao, it was just a polite question, because from the first glance down the street towards the factory gate, there was only one slender figure.

There really was no second choice.

"It’s me."

Tang Shu removed her mask, neatly folded it, and put it into the pocket of her coat, revealing her full appearance.

After that...

The once chattering Qiu Xin fell completely silent, quite literally.

Engineer Zhao and Engineer Wu’s faces were a spectacle of shock, perhaps due to the many ups and downs they had seen before. Only after confirming the credentials presented by Tang Shu did they reluctantly accept this fact.

[Mechanical Research Institute]

[Warplane 06 Research Department-Tang Shu-Consultant]

Red seal, name, photo, everything was proper.

#You might not believe this, but the consultant from the National Mechanical Research Institute is not only young, but also a female and a celebrity#

They no longer knew how to arrange their facial expressions.

"Tang... Miss Tang, no, Consultant Tang?"

"It’s just a title, either Miss Tang or Consultant Tang is fine, nice to meet you both Engineer Zhao and Engineer Wu, and this..."

Tang Shu’s gaze finally rested on Qiu Xin, whose mouth was agape enough to fit an egg. She couldn’t be blamed for not knowing how to address the last person, as the overwhelming shock had caused them to block their chest ID card.

She indicated she had no information to go on.

"His name is Qiu Xin, he’s also a designer in our design department, you can call him Xiao Qiu, or Xiaoxin."

"Then let’s go with Engineer Qiu, it’s a pleasure to meet all three of you."

Xiao Qiu and the like, but it’s clear he’s a few years older than me.

"Consultant Tang, please follow me, President Xu and Chief Engineer Zhou are waiting for you at the production line."

"Sure."

Tang Shu started walking, following the two men’s steps, and Qiu Xin, who followed, became a robot following commands, his mind storming countless times over.

***

When the group arrived inside the production line, the automated machinery there had been captivating Tang Shu the whole way.

Without a doubt, this wasn’t her first time seeing an automated production line, because there were also some in the Mechanical Research Institute, but not nearly as many.

For Tang Shu, who had lived eighteen years in an ancient feudal dynasty, the scene was indeed shocking, forcing her to acknowledge a fact once stated by a great person:

Technology is the primary productive force.

Of course, one should add the following: Talent is the primary resource, and innovation is the primary driving force for development. In this world, if you want to stay at the forefront, technology, talent, and innovation are indispensable.

"Consultant Tang, this way, please. President Xu and Chief Engineer Zhou are just ahead."

Tang Shu shifted her gaze from the automated machinery and looked ahead at several people who were studying carefully around blocks of high-definition screens, accurately identifying the two mentioned by Engineer Zhao.

As for Xu Qianyu, she didn’t need to mention as she had known her before; as for Chief Engineer Zhou, he was easy to recognize—a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, whose every action exuded the scholarly aura of a scientific researcher.

His demeanor bore a striking resemblance to Professor Chen Han from Imperial University.
