I Hijacked The Timeline - Chapter 653: Energy Research Institute (1)
Tiger Soul Research Institute.
In the training room.
After hanging up, Feng Qi looked helpless.
This was already the 27th call today.
Some time ago, he returned to Star City Academy and entrusted Bai Fusheng with a task to help promote Breaking Dawn in various academies in Star City. During this period, Bai Fusheng kept inviting the management of the various academies to experience Breaking Dawn.
The management of the various universities gave excellent feedback after experiencing Breaking Dawn, causing his phone to be bombarded with calls.
Every day, the principals of various academies would come to order the super virtual gaming capsules.
They were even willing to purchase in bulk at a price higher than 20% of the market.
He was not interested in money.
Choosing to sell the virtual gaming capsules at a fee was not profitable at all.
The money earned from the sale was all used to purchase resources and subsidize the employees of the “virtual super factory” who worked overtime day and night.
He had never thought of relying on super virtual games to earn money.
The meaning of living on this combat timeline was to fight to the death. Money was just a worldly possession. No matter how much he obtained, he would not be able to take it away.
Ideals were more important than money. It was never a joke to him.
He could only express his regret at the entreaties of the enthusiastic management personnel of the various universities.
But recently, he was planning the expansion of the virtual super factory.
The virtual super factory left behind by the Scarlet Research Institute before it retired from the world was still in its initial stages. The virtual gaming capsule produced every day could not satisfy even Star City.
To turn Breaking Dawn into a training ground, production was the most important part.
To achieve this goal, the military recently put in a lot of effort.
Apart from helping to recruit workers for the virtual super factory, the military also sent some soldiers to the assembly line of the super factory to accelerate the layout of Breaking Dawn.
Feng Qi also had a detailed plan for the deployment of the virtual gaming capsules.
He planned to satisfy the 30% quota requirement of the various universities first.
The following quotas were fought for competitively.
Every month, there would be a quota ranking competition in which universities would participate collectively. The competition involved battling in teams of 100 individuals, with no restrictions on the number of participating teams from each university. Ultimately, they would contend for allocation slots for the virtual gaming capsule based on their points ranking.
Doing so would not only bring the quota of the virtual gaming capsules but also the honor of the academy.
He believed that competition would lead to more efficient progress.
As he was thinking about his next plan, his phone rang.
When he picked up the phone, he realized that it was a call from the director of the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
“President Qi, what’s the matter?”
“Ah Qi, the expansion of the virtual super factory is in progress. Lately, the energy consumption there has been substantial. The original energy line is no longer sufficient to support the daily needs of the expanded virtual super factory. They now require a new energy line… I’ve been occupied and can’t go out recently. Given your high authority in the Tiger Soul Research Institute, you have the right to sign the document. You can act as the representative of the Tiger Soul Research Institute and go to the Energy Research Institute to handle the paperwork.”
After hearing the director of the Tiger Soul Research Institute explain the situation, Feng Qi immediately nodded and said.
“Understood. I’ll set off now.”
After hanging up, Feng Qi stood up and walked to the cubicle of the training room.
After taking a shower and changing into a new set of clothes, he dialed a number as he walked out of the headquarters building.
A few seconds later, the call went through.
“Arrange a car for me to go to the Energy Research Institute.”
“Understood.” On the other end of the phone, the staff member of the Tiger Soul Research Institute’s combat team immediately replied.
As Feng Qi stepped out of the headquarters, a military vehicle labeled “Tiger Soul Research Institute” was already parked nearby.
The window rolled down and the armed man in sunglasses nodded at him. Then, he pressed the switch and opened the car door.
After getting into the car, the military vehicle drove towards the entrance of the base.
After leaving the entrance of the Tiger Soul Research Institute base, the military vehicle drove to the West District of Star City.
The four regions of Star City each had their characteristics.
Most of the industries in the western region were energy industries, which provide electricity, natural gas, and other energy to other regions.
The research institute located in the West District of Star City also generally focused on energy research.
For example, Feng Qi’s destination this time, was the Energy Research Institute.
After a four-hour journey, the military vehicle stopped outside the Energy Research Institute’s base.
Feng Qi alighted at this moment.
The air quality here was inferior to the East District. He looked in the direction of the Energy Research Institute’s base. There was thick smoke coming from several factories inside, and there was a strange smell in the air.
In modern society, power stations were running on spiritual stones.
However, the quota of spiritual stones in Star City typically had to be allocated to Scarlet Research Institute, Tiger Soul Research Institute, and other research institutes first. Finally, it was distributed to the few Energy Research Institutes in Star City’s western district.
As a result, the scale of the pure clean-energy spiritual stones power station could not be expanded.
Star City’s electricity supply mainly relied on nuclear power and thermal power stations.
Regarding wind energy, solar energy, water energy, and other electricity generation methods, they were constrained by geographical environments and couldn’t be widely adopted in Star City.
The research institutes located in various districts consumed a lot of electricity.
The power stations alone could not satisfy the daily consumption of the Star City Research Institute and the residents of Star City.
Arriving at the entrance of the Energy Research Institute, Feng Qi received a facial scan from the security guards and was let in.
Next, he was led to the Energy Research Institute’s headquarters by a staff member.
He walked to the third floor.
On his way, he observed numerous staff members passing by, clad in special protective suits that enveloped them tightly..
