Chapter 638: Mysterious library

Shortly after the reception, MacArthur chose to leave early, saying that he wanted to go to Japan to see cherry blossoms along the way, and it was all a trip.
To this end, Li Zitao specially arranged for him a private jet, with the best crew and bodyguards, to ensure that his journey is safe and let him have fun.
This is not only because during his tenure, MacArthur won orders for Aegis cars and skunks to join them in the competition for arms procurement.
And he wants to send a message to the outside world, Charlie Lee is a nostalgic person.
Like MacArthur, he was exiled to the remote South China Sea, and for many people he had no value in'interest'.
Not only the old beauty, but the entire Western world is so realistic. When you use it, you can say anything. When you are not used, you can forget your name by turning around.
For them, when you are more valuable, buy your ‘friendship’ at a higher price or something you care about.
Of course, in a few decades, the world is almost the same routine, and turning faceless and not recognizing people will gradually become the mainstream and the norm.
As far as the current arms market is concerned, the European and American continents represent 80% of the market, so MacArthur dispatched to the South China Sea is no longer important.
When he came to see him, the scene looked a bit deserted, but a lot of people from the military came, and Li Zitao personally sent him to the plane.
"Charlie, my friend, I will remember our friendship." MacArthur patted his shoulder meaningfully, it seems that he is sure of his future.
After the plane took off, there were more people around Li Zitao. Major General Andrews had met before, although it was temporary.
"Charlie, if you're interested, take us to Skunk now. My friends can't wait." Andrews pointed to the colonel beside him.
"No problem, I'll let people prepare." The proposal was a little quick, but Li Zitao still agreed.
A phone call was made at the airport, the crew was in place in 40 minutes, and his Gulfstream One was also ready.
"Mr. Major General, does the Air Force have any plans to expand its scale?" On the plane, several people chatted casually while drinking whiskey with ice.
The air conditioner keeps the temperature of the cabin very warm, just drinking ice whiskey.
"The military has plans to increase bombing formations. Does Skunk have any research in this regard?" Andrews said in a contemplative voice.
The command of the Air Force is currently firmly in his hands, but Andrews does not know how long he can persist.
The newly appointed chief of staff and they are not the same. Andrews is now most worried about the change, and he loses his command.
"Of course, both Douglas Studio and Grumman Studio under the Skunk have research in this area, you may not know much about Skunk,
The Skunk International R&D Center is just a collective term. There are three studios under its command, Skunk Factory, Douglas and Grumman,
At present, the Skunk Factory is mainly responsible for the development of large aircraft and turbine engines, Douglas is responsible for the development of fighters, and Grumman is responsible for the bomber project. "
Hearing the introduction of Li Zitao, Andrews unexpectedly put down his wine glass; "Is the skunk such a large scale?"
"Our scale is beyond your imagination." Li Zitao smiled confidently.
The research and expansion of skunks has not stopped in recent years, from the original 5 acres to the current 15 acres.
With the annexation of Douglas and Grumman, the International R&D Center is no longer a virtual chart, and it really has the scale and appearance of ‘international’.
The 80,000-square-meter building complex was shocking when viewed from above. Andrews had not calmed down after the plane landed.
"Our three major studios have collaborated with University of Chicago, Northwestern University, Columbia University, and California Institute of Technology. At present, there are 22 Ivy League doctors in aviation.
There are 120 research interns in major universities, as well as Professor Millikan and Dr. Feng Carmen, who are authoritative in the international field. "
Listening to this self-introduction in front of me is the introduction of the person in charge of skunk, named Kelly Johnson, Andrews and fellow colonel have a deeper understanding of skunk.
The scale here really exceeded their estimates, and perhaps even the former chief of staff, MacArthur, never really understood.
Looking at Li Zitao smiling beside him, Andrews said in his heart: The military completely underestimated the Chinese super rich's emphasis on innovation and knowledge.
"BOSS, Major General, Colonel, please get on the bus and continue to visit. After all, it is very big here, and it will waste a lot of time if you walk."
Johnson pointed forward, and two army green Wranglers were parked on the roadside outside the runway. This is the skunk's ‘sightseeing car’ that specializes in receiving visitors. ’
After the crowd got in, the two cars drove slowly forward side by side, and every time they passed a building, Johnson pointed to introduce them.
Only the building with the spire in the middle, Johnson simply said, ‘Library~EbookFREE.me~ to get the topic off.
"Mr. Johnson, I am very interested in your library. I wonder if I can visit it in person?" Andrews looked back with interest.
"This..." Johnson looked at the BOSS beside him a little embarrassedly, and said after he nodded. "Well...go to the library."
When the two cars stopped at the door, Andrews got off the car and looked at the two security guards at the door with real guns and ammunition; "It seems that the collection here is very important."
"It can be said, please." Li Zitao took over the job of Johnson's "guide" and personally led the two to the spire building.
Above the brown-yellow arch, the spelling of ‘Research and Development Comprehensive Strategy Laboratory’ is carved on the white square stone, and the abbreviation of ‘Rand’ is on the right of the pillar frame.
Pushing the door open, Andrews imagined that the ‘secret laboratory’ does not exist.
In front of them is a neat row of bookshelves with a height of at least 4 meters. Each bookshelf is covered with a mobile slide, and the bottom is embedded in the floor to ensure that it can remain stable in front of the bookshelves.
One by one ‘scholars’ with eyes flowed through the passage between the bookshelves, and occasionally someone stopped to find the books they needed.
At the end of the bookshelf against the wall is a high wooden table with a huge table on it, and many people are standing by the table and talking.
"Please here." Li Zitao led the two through the series of bookshelves.
As the two people approached, they discovered that the high platform continued from the wall on the left to the wall on the right. The huge table above was not one, but six.
Walking up the wooden staircase against the wall on the left, Andrews couldn't help his inner curiosity and stepped up to the nearest square table.
