Two days quickly passed in the midst of busy work at Hyman Technology's Science & Technology's main research facility.
At this time, in the administration building not far from the White House, it was very quiet.
In an impeccable office, a man in a military uniform was sitting on a chair, watching the Science & Technology Summit that was held two days ago by the Science & Technology Association.
Suddenly, a scene that surprised him appeared in the video.
A young man actually walked to the podium?
This was the Science & Technology Association, who would dare to cause trouble there?
For a moment, the man in military uniform wondered if there was something wrong with his video.
After all, the video he was watching had been sent from the Association itself.
This was not the cut-out version of the video that was circulating on the internet.
After all, many of the things displayed at the Science & Technology Summit were semi-finished products or dangerous items that ordinary people could not see.
The man in military uniform thought for a moment and shouted to the guard outside the door, "Someone, go and call Charles over."
The guard at the door heard the man's order. He stood at the door and saluted before closing it and quickly walking to the other side of the corridor.
After a few minutes, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" the man in military uniform said calmly, but his eyes were staring at the video.
The door opened.
A muscular man with a crew cut saluted him and said, "General O'Neil, what can I do for you?"
"You were at the Science & Technology Summit the day before yesterday, right?" O'Neil looked at Charles and asked.
"Yes, I was there." Charles nodded.
"There was an accident in the middle of the exhibition?" O'Neil continued to ask.
Charles thought for a moment and then answered, "Yes, a young man named Anderson appeared in the middle of the exhibition, introducing a piece of technology about artificial intelligence."
"Was it really just about artificial intelligence?" O'Neil asked suspiciously.
"It seems to be different from ordinary artificial intelligence. According to Anderson, his technology can change the world," Charles replied.
"Change the world?" O'Neil's face was a little contemptuous. After that, he asked, "What does President Joseph think of this matter?"
"President Joseph seems to take this matter seriously and called this kid away from the scene so that he could speak to him about his research in private."
"Take it seriously?" O'Neil frowned slightly and ordered, "You can go back now."
After Charles answered respectfully, he left the room.
Soon, the room became quiet again, leaving O'Neil alone.
He had seen the footage of Anderson through the video just now, which is why he had asked those questions.
However, the fact that the young man was able to stand on the podium and not be kicked off the stage showed Joseph's attitude regarding the matter. He had tacitly agreed to whatever the young man had to say.
After Charles' explanation, he had a feeling that things were not that simple. There must be a follow-up to this incident.
O'Neil was about to pick up the phone on the table and call Joseph to ask what exactly had happened.
However, before he could make the call, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
O'Neil picked up the phone and Joseph's voice suddenly chimed through the other side.
"O'Neil, are you free now?"
"Yes, I have something I want to talk to you about," O'Neil replied.
"You can come over. Maybe we can talk in person," Joseph said.
"Do you need me to go over? Is what you want to talk about very important?" O'Neil asked curiously.
"It is indeed very important. I can't explain it clearly on the phone," Joseph said seriously.
Normally, if he could explain things clearly on the phone, it would be curt and to the point. But now, he had no choice. The things that Anderson designed had gone beyond the scope of ordinary technology.
It was difficult to explain such things in one or two sentences. He had to use examples to explain it clearly.
O'Neil held up the phone. Thinking of the video he had just watched, combined with Joseph's current attitude, he already had some ideas in his mind.
It had been a long time since he had gone to Joseph's company, after his last buying spree of technological weapons.
Now, there was only one possibility for Joseph to call him over, and that was that they might have developed a technology that was more important than those high-tech weapons.
In addition to the words of the young man named Anderson in the video earlier...
"Okay, I understand. I'll be there right away," O'Neil replied.
He hung up the call.
O'Neil put down the phone and walked out of the door. A guard followed behind him consciously.
When he came to the mansion's gate, a black car was parked at the door.
The guard opened the door for O'Neil and then sat in the driver's seat.
"Sir, where are we going?" the guard asked as he started the car.
"Our final destination is Hyman Tech's base. Let's go to the roof first," said O'Neil.
"Yes, sir."
Soon, the sound of an engine was heard. The black car drove toward a high-rise building not far from the administrative building.
On the roof of this tall building, a helicopter was ready.
...
An hour passed.
A modified helicopter appeared in the sky above Hyman Technology's research center.
Whup-whup-whup!
The helicopter's sound became louder and louder before finally, it slowly landed in an empty lot in Hyman Technology.
At this time, two young men who had been waiting for a long time quickly walked to the helicopter and said respectfully, "General O'Neil, welcome to Hyman Technology's research center!"
O'Neil looked at the two young men and said with a smile, "I remember you. You're Joseph's two students, right? One of you is Jack, and the other is Tom."
"Yes!"
The two men looked at each other with red faces and were a little excited. They did not expect that the general would still remember them.
After all, such big shots were rare. It was difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with them.
It was their honor to be remembered by such an influential person.
Under the lead of Joseph and his two students, they quickly entered the building complex of the research center.
At this time, in the center of the circular research lab, a robot stood quietly in front of everyone.
The robot's head was connected to a helmet-like device, and there were many antennas on the helmet that were receiving information.
"Intelligence No. 1 is finally completed."
Seeing this scene, the researchers present heaved a sigh of relief.
"Should we start the test?" the middle-aged man with sparse hair asked impatiently.
"Wait a little longer," Joseph said calmly.
"Wait a little longer?" Everyone was puzzled.
It was clearly completed. Shouldn't the test be carried out?
Everyone looked at William and found that his expression was also very calm.
This made everyone even more depressed.
But in the next moment, a burst of loud laughter suddenly sounded from outside the door.
"Joseph, you've successfully lured out my curiosity!"
