Even the Research Base staff, who were about to cheer wildly, stared blankly at their phones, frozen in place, completely motionless.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Fan noticed that Wang Yixue's expression was off.
"Let's hurry up and find the Moon Landing Memorial. Let's see what it looks like, then our trip won't have been in vain!"
"When others travel abroad, we've essentially traveled off the planet, right?"
Wang Yixue's eyelids twitched, and she spoke with difficulty.
" Xu Fan, when you landed just now, did you notice that you stepped on something?"
"It seems like I stepped on a rock and it hurt the mech's right foot. What happened?" Xu Fan asked, frowning in confusion.
"Guess what the mech's right foot is stepping on?"
Xu Fan frowned even more deeply.
I thought about it for a moment.
His pupils dilated sharply.
Holy crap!
With a strange cry, it quickly moved the mech's right foot away.
He trampled the great moon landing monument into the lunar soil, leaving only the top exposed.
As for Armstrong's footprints, they have been trampled away.
At that moment, Xu Fan was stunned.
One giant leap for mankind, gone just like that!
He did it!
If Armstrong, now in the afterlife, knew this, he would be so angry he'd come back to life and fight to the death.
Old Wang and the others were also staring blankly at their phone screens.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
If this gets out, Xu Fan will definitely become the target of attacks from many self-proclaimed international righteous people.
The Xia Kingdom would also be condemned for destroying one of the most precious cultural relics in human history.
"Cough cough..."
Old Man Hua coughed a few times and glanced around.
His eyes were quite sharp.
"Nobody saw what happened today, do you understand?"
" Old Man Hua, what are you talking about? I was playing on the computer and didn't notice." Tong Yao understood immediately and said with a serious expression.
The researchers next to him suddenly changed their demeanor as well.
Countless people rubbed their eyes.
"I don't know what's wrong with my eyes, I can't see clearly, I need to put some Ma Yinglong ointment on them!"
"What a coincidence, me too!"
"Are you one of them?"
"Hehe, me too! Buy some Ma Yinglong ointment for me when you buy it!"
"And mine too!"
"..."
Tong Yao stood to the side, his lips twitching wildly.
These grandsons reacted quite quickly.
The problem is, is Ma Yinglong (a traditional Chinese medicine) for treating eye problems?
Seeing everyone's performance, Old Man Hua stroked his gray beard with satisfaction.
Old Wang looked at Old Man Hua and gave him a thumbs up.
Well done!
The researchers were then dismissed and sent back to their respective posts.
This concludes our observation and learning session!
Only the elderly couple, Old Man Hua and Old Wang, remained, with Tong Yao taking care of them.
On the moon.
Xu Fan looked at the "Witness to the Human Moon Landing" that he had trampled into oblivion.
I felt a little guilty.
I thought about it for a while.
He simply stepped on it again, and even stomped on it twice.
The mecha's footprints have penetrated more than 1 meter into the ground.
There is no air on the moon, and of course, no wind, so this footprint should remain for a long time.
Then he reached out and drew a line of words on the ground next to him.
"One small step for mechs, one giant leap for technology!"
After finishing writing, I frowned slightly, feeling that my handwriting was crooked and messy and not very neat, but oh well, it's fine as it is.
After doing all this, while Wang Yixue was dumbfounded, he pulled the control lever sharply and made a quick getaway.
"boom--"
With the boost mode activated, the mech vanished from the lunar surface in an instant.
Only a huge footprint, 70cm long, was left behind.
The journey there was quick, but the return trip was even faster.
Xu Fan said she didn't want to miss lunch.
In boost mode, the mech's engines operate at full speed.
At 45 times the speed of sound, the distance between the moon and the earth doesn't seem so far away.
Wang Yixue watched as Xu Fan controlled the mecha with effortless skill, and couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.
I wish she could reach that level of proficiency.
Along the way, I humbly asked him some questions about driving.
Xu Fan patiently taught him.
After all, the customer is king.
This is his principle in doing business.
Only by adhering to principles can we achieve long-term development.
Half an hour later, the mecha had entered geosynchronous orbit.
Further ahead lies low Earth orbit, home to space stations of various countries.
Xu Fan didn't stop and sped off.
Trailing a long blue flame, it shot into the atmosphere like a cannonball.
At the same time, we must not forget to provide after-sales training.
" Yixue, you're a good candidate."
" The attitude adjustment and braking of Jiangtian No. 1 are actually very simple."
"You do this first, then do that..."
As Xu Fan spoke, he moved the control levers with fluid, click-clack movements.
"That's fine."
"This is what people call falling leaves!"
The mech's main engines were all shut down, leaving only the attitude adjustment Vector Nozzle in operation.
The mecha flew, spun, and descended like a falling leaf.
"So, did you understand?"
"Ah, this..."
Wang Yixue gave a stiff smile.
They were speechless.
He looked at his own hands, then at the joystick that Xu Fan was holding.
I couldn't help but fall into deep doubt.
My hands seem different from Xu Fan's hands.
Isn't this my hand?
A series of mecha-style falling leaf maneuvers completely stunned Wang Yixue.
Seeing that Wang Yixue remained silent, Xu Fan thought that the girl probably didn't like the falling leaves.
Let's teach him another one!
" Yixue, don't worry, now that you've bought my mecha, I'll teach you until you're satisfied!"
"Next up, it's called the Paperclip Mobility!"
"Watch how I control it."
As he spoke, Xu Fan performed another series of incredibly difficult maneuvers with ease.
The mech, which had been descending straight down from the sky, suddenly turned and braked sharply.
The next moment it surged again, and in just a few seconds it made a 180-degree turn like a paperclip.
"This move is quite simple, you should be able to do it, right?"
"..."
Wang Yixue fell completely silent.
His face was deathly pale, and he looked utterly despondent.
She finally understood why Tong Yao had talked to Xu Fan about being withdrawn.
Don't you have any idea how good your skills are?
Is this a deliberate attempt to harm someone?
Wang Yixue's confidence was shattered.
She felt wronged and wanted to cry.
From childhood to adulthood, she excelled at everything she did.
Even Wang Ning from the family, no matter how hard he tries, can't compare to her.
Now she finally felt a real sense of defeat.
No, you can't compare. Compared to this person, you'll experience what despair truly means!
Xu Fan glanced at his watch; it was already 12 o'clock.
I thought I'd let it go for today and teach her another time when I had the chance.
This business deal, although it did make money.
But after-sales service is really troublesome.
Deciding to temporarily end the lesson, Xu Fan piloted his mech and flew rapidly toward the ground.
Next is the Zhonghai Military Research Base.
Wang Yixue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Xu Fan would continue to teach her, not because he didn't want to learn, but because he genuinely couldn't understand it.
She was too embarrassed to admit that she didn't understand.
She was afraid that Xu Fan, a highly skilled teacher, would think she was stupid and never teach her again.
After the mecha was parked indoors, Wang Yixue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
A smile of relief spread across his face.
Xu Fan followed Wang Yixue to the conference room.
Old Wang and Old Man Hua, with kind smiles on their faces, were waiting for the two of them.
"Xiao Xu, I really didn't expect you to be such a good driver. If you have time in the future, please teach Yixue. She's very smart and learns very quickly."
"No problem, Mr. Wang." Xu Fan nodded respectfully in agreement.
He held Wang Lao and Old Man Hua in the highest esteem.
Wang Yixue, standing to the side, frantically tried to wink at Grandpa Wang, as if to say, "Grandpa, please stop praising me, I'm too embarrassed!"
After some conversation, Xu Fan received another request from Old Wang.
That is to build another similar mech and improve the laser weapons and the dragoon system.
Xu Fan had no reason to refuse. Firstly, he greatly respected Mr. Wang and Old Man Hua, and secondly, the offer was too much, a full 10 million.
Even disregarding costs, you can earn at least 5 million
