Fifth-generation fighter technology

"If I said I had other good things too?"

Chen Mu smiled mysteriously, picked up a piece of meat, and happily ate it.

"Oh?"

Uncle Zhang looked at Chen Mu with great interest and asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Just know that it's something good. I'm keeping it under wraps for now. Besides, it's a trade secret—I can't just tell anyone."

Everyone was speechless, staring at Chen Mu with dark expressions. The kid was really trying to act mysterious?

"Anyway, Mr. Zhang, you should know that my goal isn't money. That's all that matters."

Chen Mu was not lying. After arriving in this world and learning that it was a movie world from his previous life, he no longer had much desire for wealth.

"Not for money?"

Mr. Zhang was thoroughly surprised, though deeply skeptical as well.

Starting a company without doing it for money?

Who would believe that?

"Then what are you doing it for?"

Mr. Zhang had already gotten used to Chen Mu's odd way of addressing him, so he did not find it strange. Instead, he asked with considerable interest.

"Since modern times, Hua Country has endured countless hardships. Especially since World War II, this great ancient nation with five thousand years of history has faced unprecedented crises, even coming close to the tragedy of national extinction."

Chen Mu put down his chopsticks and looked at Mr. Zhang with great seriousness. He continued, "Fortunately, from that point onward, this country finally awakened. Only after so many years of development did it reach where it is today."

Since the founding of the nation, whether in economics or technology, its rate of development had left other countries far behind. Think about what Hua Country had been like at its founding, then look at what it had become now.

The changes had been earth-shattering. Every country in the world, even developed nations, could only marvel in astonishment. Some shameless countries, afraid of being surpassed, used every possible method to suppress it. Truly the conduct of petty villains.

"But it's not enough. None of this is enough!" Chen Mu looked at Uncle Zhang with extraordinary seriousness. "It's still not enough!"

"On the international stage, Hua Country still cannot compare to those long-established nations, whether economically or technologically. So I want Hua Country's technology to surpass theirs!"

"Technological development cannot be achieved overnight. Hua Country has many researchers who are all contributing their own strength to the nation's development."

Mr. Zhang fell silent. In the end, the country had indeed been founded too recently. Hua Country had only truly been established after World War II. To surpass others in a mere sixty years was genuinely difficult.

But that was not meant to discourage anyone. Hua Country's scientific researchers had not lost heart because of the difficulties. Instead, they had worked even harder, and that was how the nation had achieved its current prosperity.

"That still isn't enough!" Chen Mu said loudly. "What I want is for Hua Country to truly achieve its rejuvenation!"

"Before modern times, throughout every dynasty, when had Hua Country's economy and technology not ranked first in the world, far ahead of other countries? It was only in modern times that Hua Country grew weak and fell behind the West."

"Good. Seeing that you care so deeply for this country satisfies me." Uncle Zhang praised Chen Mu, his eyes full of appreciation.

"If all young people in Hua Country were like you, why would Hua Country worry about being unable to rise?"

"So first, we need to give every Hua Country citizen confidence!"

Chen Mu nodded and calmly accepted Mr. Zhang's praise, because what he intended to do was bring this country back to the pinnacle of the world!

"That's easier said than done..."

At that moment, Chen Mu's father spoke quietly. There was no denying that Chen Mu's words had stirred his blood, but in reality, making every Hua Country citizen confident was easier said than done.

Hua Country had 1.3 billion people, and there were all kinds among them. There were quite a few people who worshipped Japan or America, quite a few who constantly disparaged the nation, and even plenty of shameless Gongzhi who smeared their own country. Some had knelt for too long and found it difficult to stand again.

So how could it be easy?

"Actually, this problem isn't impossible to solve."

Chen Mu smiled. "The reason many people in the country lack confidence is simply because the nation has been weak for so many years. Making them regain their confidence is actually quite easy."

"How?" Mr. Zhang asked curiously. If this problem could be solved, it would be tremendously significant for the entire country.

"Simple. A National Day event."

Chen Mu looked at Mr. Zhang calmly and spoke each word distinctly.

A military parade was, by nature, a way to strengthen national pride and increase people's confidence.

And through it, they could display the nation's advanced weaponry and deter other countries with ulterior motives. In this so-called peaceful era, it was also an important means of confrontation between nations.

"A military parade?"

Mr. Zhang frowned. Everyone knew that a military parade could boost public confidence, but today's Hua Country—especially the Hua Country of this world—had no decisive weapons capable of intimidating other nations, particularly America.

Marvel World could practically be said to revolve entirely around America. Apart from the fictional Wakanda, other countries had virtually no presence at all.

The Hua Country of this world was not even comparable to the Hua Country from Chen Mu's previous life. Even SF Express, which had once awed the world, still possessed backward technology here, while its military strength was exceptionally weak.

"National Day isn't far away. If we can hold a large-scale military parade capable of intimidating other nations, the people will surely regain their confidence."

"That may be true, but with our current military strength, even if we hold a parade, it won't be enough to help the people regain their confidence..."

Mr. Zhang smiled bitterly. How could that be easy?

"I can provide you with a technology, but on the condition that you offer my company some assistance to a certain extent."

Chen Mu smiled, took out a USB drive, and placed it on the table.

"Inside is complete fifth-generation fighter technology, including stealth technology, engine technology, aerodynamic structures, and more."

"Fifth-generation fighter technology?"

Mr. Zhang was shocked and involuntarily rose to his feet. Then he realized he had overreacted and sat back down, signaling to Uncle Zhang, who stood nearby. Uncle Zhang solemnly put it away.

The technology Chen Mu had provided was actually the F-22 he had analyzed. During his flight home, he had achieved further technological breakthroughs on it. Of course, to avoid trouble, he had still made some changes to its appearance.

But it had to be said that this fighter, integrating the complete F-22 technology, was actually even more powerful than the J-20 from Chen Mu's previous life!

"With Hua Country's current technological level, it should be easy to manufacture."

Although Hua Country's military strength was not the strongest, its industrial foundation was there. Manufacturing it would not be much of a problem.
