The Meaning of Everyone's Existence

Imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel!

Guo Yi understood and felt this statement deeply at this moment.

Before coming here, Guo Yi thought that by arriving, he would have unlimited supplies for his experiments and production.

He would have a professional team of nutritionists and chefs to cater to his every need.

He would have a massive logistics team, so he wouldn't have to clean or do laundry.

As it turned out, it was all a lie!

The greater the expectation, the greater the hurt when disappointed!

His mind was filled with technological knowledge, but he hadn't studied management.

Besides, management was a humanities subject, not related to mechanical science, so he had no corresponding knowledge reserves in his mind...

If he wanted to learn, he could only do so like an ordinary person, by poring over a book...

Not like with other mechanical sciences, where he could spend a thousand years in a dream while sleeping, delving into learning.

Waking up after a single night's sleep, he would have mastered one or even half a discipline.

Feeling wronged, unhappy, annoyed, anxious, and other negative emotions began to assault Guo Yi.

As a result, the more Guo Yi thought, the more stifled and dejected his expression became, even showing hints of giving up.

Seeing Guo Yi on the verge of regretting and turning bitter, Gao Linlin quickly exchanged glances with Elder Zhou and He Zhijun.

Then, Elder Zhou's gentle voice rang out, "Don't worry, we'll solve things one by one.

You'll get used to it once you're familiar.

It's just like learning a new subject; I believe you'll learn it quickly!"

"I..." Guo Yi said to Elder Zhou in a low voice, "This feeling, it's the first time I've experienced it. Stifled, unhappy, annoyed, anxious..."

"It's alright," Elder Zhou said kindly, rubbing Guo Yi's head. "You've always been smooth sailing in your research, and you've always been alone since you were young.

Now, suddenly having to lead a team, it's normal not to be used to it or know what to do.

You have plenty of time to experience and feel these things, there's no rush."

Guo Yi looked up at He Zhijun and the others and softly replied, "Mm."

Having always been alone, and with his mind full of technological knowledge, Guo Yi never worried about money.

So, having been single and free for so long, he unconsciously believed himself to be omnipotent, and everyone else to be mere dregs unworthy of being with him.

Moreover, by Guo Yi's side, there had always been robots that evoked no feelings.

Guo Yi didn't need to consider them at all and couldn't perceive any of their emotions.

But in reality, no matter how much of a genius or prodigy a person is, they are still human.

Being human, they cannot escape human nature.

Furthermore, no person is completely without flaws.

Therefore, it was entirely understandable that Guo Yi, venturing into an unfamiliar field, would be greatly impacted and feel dejected.

At the same time, this situation is also one of the ways to distinguish a true genius from a false one.

True geniuses will pick themselves up, learn in this unknown territory, integrate all the knowledge, and once again become the leader.

False geniuses, on the other hand, will simply give up, blame the heavens and the earth, and believe everything is the world's fault, not their own.

Guo Yi was on the verge of sliding into becoming a false genius, but fortunately, he had true giants of the nation like Elder Zhou by his side, someone who could guide and care for Guo Yi, and who was also Guo Yi's idol.

Therefore, after listening to Elder Zhou, Guo Yi took a few deep breaths, calmed his mood, and then seriously said to He Zhijun and the others, "What should I do?"

He Zhijun looked at Guo Yi, who had calmed down and regained his composure, and nodded with satisfaction. "One thing at a time.

First is the budget; you need to know how much money you have.

After all, you can't do what you did before, secretly using your hacking skills to rob drug dealers of their drug money when you're short on funds.

However, I personally support you on that point!"

Guo Yi nodded, then shouted into the air, "Doggy!"

"Who is calling my name, who is waiting for my return..."

Doggy appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by background music.

"..."

Guo Yi's previously calm expression darkened again. Gritting his teeth, he ordered, "Bring up the factory's material information list and asset statement!"

"Snap~"

Doggy seemed to sense Guo Yi's unusual mood and instantly brought up the required information, displaying it in the air.

Guo Yi took a careful look at the list, then frowned as he looked at Gao Linlin, "A project research fund of only 5 billion? That's too little!"

Doesn't our tradition involve hoarding things?

I remember there were many materials with large reserves!

Why do I need money to use those reserves?

Gao Linlin nodded and explained, "That's right, although the higher-ups have agreed that you can mobilize all stored materials, you still need money for it!

No restrictions on mobilization, but money is still money.

One thing is one thing!

Besides, it's not just you who needs R&D funds; there are plenty of places that need allocations..."

The rabbit's DNA and experiences have led it to be quite fond of hoarding.

For civilian use, for military use, hoard!

For daily life, for scientific research, hoard!

What they have, what they buy from outside, hoard!

Inanimate things, living things, hoard!

In short, it's all about one word: hoard!

But hoarding aside, they will still use things when the time comes.

Therefore, no matter what materials Guo Yi wants or how much he wants, they can provide it.

The prerequisite is to provide the cost price!

This isn't about making money off Guo Yi, but it's one of the rules that must be followed to maintain societal prosperity and operation.

So, hearing this, Guo Yi could only nod helplessly and start pondering.

However, the more he pondered, the more he felt something was off!

"That's not right!

I remember I submitted the production data for many complete technological products!" Guo Yi frowned and asked Gao Linlin, "Although it was my selfless contribution, if those products are sold!

A portion of the profits should be allocated to me, right?

In a monopolistic business, we set the prices.

Not to mention a monopolistic business with a technological gap!

The profit should be terrifyingly large..."

"Mmm," Gao Linlin smiled meaningfully, "But those are for military use..."

Got it.

As soon as Guo Yi heard Gao Linlin's words, he immediately understood: military use = for their own use = not for sale.

And the submitted data, because no one had fully grasped it, they didn't know how to simplify it.

So, there was nothing to sell, which meant no way to make money.

In the end, Guo Yi had no money to invest in the factory and had to rely on allocations to get by...

To put it bluntly, they were waiting for Guo Yi to proactively provide a simplified version...

Thinking of this, Guo Yi glanced at Elder Zhou.

The true intention behind Elder Zhou's presence here: assisting him with R&D and production was one part, but more importantly, it was for Elder Zhou and the others to fully understand all the technology.

One aspect was for Elder Zhou to represent Guo Yi in taking on disciples.

After all, Guo Yi shouldn't waste his energy on cultivating the next generation; his main focus should still be on cosmic technology.

Another aspect was for Elder Zhou and the others to produce inferior products.

That is, the defective products from their practice sessions, which could be sold as exports...

Well, very logical reasoning, very rabbit-like logic!

Especially when Guo Yi saw Elder Zhou and Gao Linlin sharing the same meaningful smile, his guess was further confirmed.

Afterward, Guo Yi said speechlessly to Elder Zhou, "Can't you just say these things directly? Is it fun for me to guess like this?"

"This is something you need to learn!" Elder Zhou said with a chuckle, "Besides, your project is yours to decide!"

Guo Yi rubbed his temples helplessly: As expected, strategy is king!

This was practically telling Guo Yi in plain sight that he chose this path, and they didn't force him!

In reality, all of Guo Yi's other paths had already been cut off by them...

Thanks to "Civil Officials for Me" for the reward!

Thank you very much!
