"Treating cancer cells? Have you guys used up all the funds that you're applying for a second project?"
Xie Liaofu returned the biology lab's report with displeasure. Everything at the base was controlled by computers, with the artificial intelligence "Mountain and Sea" intimately summarizing in real-time, ensuring exceptionally clear management, and precisely monitoring the actual dynamics of each department.
Seeing that deception was futile, Xie Miao didn't get discouraged:
"We're also planning to order a batch of new experimental equipment and supplies. You've got to approve the budget for this, right?"
"How much?"
"I'll submit the report once I'm back. It should be around two hundred million. And authorize four more robots to serve as lab assistants; we don't have enough hands."
"Your biology lab sure burns through money, throwing away over a billion without even a splash to show for it."
