I Became a Genius Engineer - I Became a Genius Engineer chapter 129
Energy Developer Cheolwoo Lee (4)
“What do you mean by gap?”
Is it to help speed up commercialization or what? I was curious and asked.
– It takes a lot of time to develop technology and commercialize it. There will be institutional issues, cost issues, technical issues, and many more. We will help you with that part.
“Well, then how exactly do you help?”
-What we can do right now is, of course, the establishment of a humanoid arc system. If Arc, without any system, comes out on the market, it will bring a lot of confusion to society as the Ethics Committee and the Human Rights Committee said. So, by negotiating with them, it is to create a proper system.
Certainly, that was something the state could not do.
Creating a system is a difficult task for a single company to do.
“Um… Then, Vice President Seo?”
I called Vice President Seo.
“Yes. Mr. Lee Chul-woo.”
“What problem is preventing humanoid production?”
“It’s exactly what team leader Namgoong-Gil just said. First of all, there is great opposition from civic groups. If you try to build a large-scale factory, they come like ghosts and hold protests. It’s not as easy as you think to forcefully enforce the protesters. .”
“What the hell, why do you say you’re against it?”
“Well… yeah, robots take jobs from humans. Robots can hurt humans. Robots also feel emotions and we don’t have the right to force them to work. Well, stuff like that.”
I can understand the first two.
“…… Robots can feel emotions too, and we don’t have the right to force them to work?”
What nonsense are you talking about?
“Yes. That’s what they claim.”
“It’s hard to understand.”
“It’s hard for me to understand, but they say yes. There is another problem. This is more of a problem, but not only civic groups, but our labor unions are also opposing it.”
Oh, I think I saw it on the news.
“Is it because it takes away jobs?”
“Yes. There was a time when they held a violent rally, wondering if their jobs would be replaced by robots. Because of that, production of the ITE-X engine was disrupted. Perhaps, I think you’ve heard about it in the news.”
Civic groups say they are taking away their jobs, but what about Hyeonseong’s workers?
When the robots start to take their place, of course, they will think that the factory workers in Hyeonseong, who made the robots, will change.
‘Well, it’s definitely a pretty difficult problem.’
Creating robots to replace humans was not an easy task. In a way, it could be a matter of survival for the workers.
“Hmm, then, what can Namgoong-gil do?”
-yes. institutionalization. It is to create a system and negotiate with them.
“Then how were you going to negotiate the job issue?”
– We are trying to provide employment settlement funds to those who have lost their jobs due to robots, and to arrange new jobs.
That’s right… … . You’re talking like a government.
Oh, it was the government. these guys
“You wouldn’t be satisfied with that, would you?”
– hahahaha, I know. That’s what it means to negotiate.
What, did you know these guys? Are you planning more than you think?
“then?”
– Civic groups will see their own gains to some extent and fall out.
“Ohh.”
-However, Hyeonseong’s worker problem needs to be resolved.
Well, civic groups are not their problem right now, so they can get over it that way. However, Hyeonseong workers are not like that.

You’d think that building robots would take away their jobs.
“That will have to be resolved by Vice President Seo.”
“Yes. That’s why we plan to take the existing staff as they are. We cannot replace the existing positions with robots.”
“Maybe we can proceed like that.”
It’s a little embarrassing. What do you think is the fastest?
-yes. Then we’ll help you do that. And next, it is an essential propulsion for NF network.
“Can I help you with something on that too?”
-Do you know why research on propellants is not being done properly?
Obviously, I heard that the US is intervening in something. I didn’t know the details.
It wasn’t even my interest right now.
“I heard it was because of the US, but I don’t know the details.”
-yes. It’s because of the ROK-US missile range guideline. At the time when the United States was engaged in pro-China diplomacy, the root cause was that Korea developed ballistic missiles to stimulate China.
“I see.”
This is why the weak country is… … .
-The proposal is being revoked as it continues to be revised, but it is still not possible to create a missile that can be launched into space. Because of that limitation, we can’t experiment.
We didn’t make rocket propellants to make rocket missiles.
If the rocket propellant was completed, it could also be used for rocket missiles.
It was the same reason that North Korea continued to launch missile provocations under the pretext of launching satellites.
“That’s right. Even if you do research, you can’t actually do it.”
-So we’re thinking of stepping out and negotiating with the US.
It is an agreement between Korea and the United States. This wasn’t something I could do on my own.
“Do you have a negotiation card?”
-I don’t think you need a negotiating card. Since the US and China have already turned into enemies, can’t we just talk a little better?
Well, it was made to target us when the US was promoting pro-China diplomacy.
after… … . When I think of this, TSM President Wang’s words come to mind.
‘I can’t trust America.’
The American guys were also guys who would do anything for the benefit of their country.
“Okay. Then I think we can end it that way too.”
Perhaps, if the government steps in and loosens the regulation, research will certainly gain momentum.
-yes. That’s all we’ve prepared. thank you
I thought I could get some help in a number of ways.
After the report, Vice President Seo approached me first.
“Are you very busy these days?”
“hahahaha, I had a lot of work to do, so I didn’t have time to pay attention to this and that. I made the arc and almost neglected it… I’m sorry.”
“No, there’s nothing to be sorry about. We couldn’t make it properly because of our lack of ability.”
“I’m glad it’s been sorted out though.”
“Yes. We were confused too, but it was organized so well.”
“Then, when do you expect the arc to be used properly?”
“Originally, I watched it for about 5 years, but with the help of the government, I wonder if it can be reduced to about 2 years?”
“Two years, good.”
While the vice president and I were talking, Chang also came.
“Changsu, you’re working hard. From the NF Foundation.”
“hahahaha, no. It’s really fun?”
“So the problem was rocket regulation, right?”
“Anyway, that’s because we can’t launch satellites on our own. Entrusting it to the US costs a lot, and it’s not like launching one or two satellites. We need our own technology.”
“Well, that’ll be good news sooner or later.”
“regulation?”
“No, I developed a new fuel this time. I wonder what the new rocket propulsion will be like with that.”
“…… Huh? What?”
“What? What about rocket propulsion?”
“No, before that.”
“Have you developed a new fuel?”
“Uh. You’ve developed a new fuel? What the hell do you mean? New fuel?”
“hahahaha, ah. There’s something I’m personally researching right now. New fuel is essential to make it.”
“…… Wow, to think you’ve developed a new fuel. Seriously, I was wondering if you could catch up with the quantum radiation antenna. As expected, if you look again, you’re far away.”
“hahahaha, didn’t you feel the rivalry anymore?”
“I admit it.”
“Thank you. Anyway, since I have to make a fighter jet…”
“fighter plane?”
“huh.”
“……What kind of fighter is this all of a sudden?”
“Somehow it happened that way.”
Anyway, how do you make fighters? I don’t have enough time to make nanosuits and fighter jets.
No, there’s no law telling me to do everything, right?
I’ll leave the fighters to the Ministry of Defense, and I’ll make a nanosuit.
After the presentation, team leader Namgung-gil was approaching.
Great. Let’s ask for this
“Chief Namgoong-gil, is it okay for a moment?”
“Yes. Of course.”
He came over to my seat.
“Now that this has happened, let’s get some help.”
“Help? Any help you need, just tell me anything. I’ll do my best to help.”
“hahahaha, thank you for your words. I’m interested in the defense business.”
“A defense project?”
At first, I thought of entrusting it to Changsoo, but Changsoo was already doing a lot of work.
“Yes. I’m thinking of making a new fighter.”
“……? New fighter? I think you should talk to the Ministry of Defense about that.”
“Yes. That’s why. No one in the Ministry of Defense knows.”
A nearby minister came over to see if he had heard our story.
“You’re building fighter jets this time? Wow.”
“I’ve heard of self-reliant national defense somewhere.”
“If Mr. Cheol-Woo Lee pays attention to the defense technology… I would be grateful.
It must be because he is at the ministerial level, and he seems to be able to meet the Minister of Defense easily.
“thank you.”
* * *
“Hello, Mr. Cheol-Woo Lee. I am Ki-Cheol Kim, Minister of National Defense.”
I met the Minister of National Defense through the introduction of the Minister of Science and Technology.
“Hello. I’m Lee Cheol-woo.”
“The reason you asked to meet this time was because of the new fighter, is that correct?”
“Yes. That’s right. While developing Soromin, I discovered a few new materials that I thought were perfect for a fighter.”
“Oh, what is that material?”
“It’s boron iron and boron silver.”
“What about bog iron and bog?”
He tilted his head at the unfamiliar material he had heard for the first time.
“Yes. Bog iron and boung iron are lighter and harder than iron. Also, there was a research result that the elasticity and rigidity are much better than the materials used in conventional fighter jets.”
“Oh… how much better would it be if you made a new fighter out of that material?”
“I’ll tell you based on the KF-16.”
KF-16. It was now Korea’s main fighter.
“Yes. I would appreciate it if you would do that.”
“Oh, I guess I’ll have to compare it to the F-22 Raptor.”
“F-22 Raptor? Are you referring to the fighters of the US Army?”
“Yes. Why do you think the F-22 is the best fighter?”
“Of course, isn’t it thanks to the excellent stealth function?”
“Yes, that’s right. Thanks to the stealth feature, the enemy’s radar is useless. It’s not easy to hit a fighter jet flying in the air at Mach by firing a missile with the naked eye. No, it should be considered impossible.”
Right now, it is safe to say that the core of a fighter jet is its stealth function.
If the radar doesn’t work, how can you track and shoot it down?
“What about that?”
“Yes. Bung-silver, the material I just mentioned, has the property of absorbing radio waves. If a fighter is plated with boron-silver, it will show great stealth performance.”
It was a really accidental discovery.
The basic principle of radar is to send out radio waves and analyze the reflected signal if it hits an object.
However, since all of the magnetic waves are absorbed by Boong-eun, a tremendous stealth effect is created.
“…… Is that true? Are you saying you can build a stealth aircraft?”
