Incredible Insight: Toy Factory Discovers Swarm Drones

Chapter 94 The People’s Toy MakerThat sentence, ”I just... took a look at the Chameleon,” plunged the entire warehouse into a long, unsettling silence.

The bigwigs stood there, frozen like a row of statues under a binding spell.

Their brains were experiencing an unprecedented storm. The scientific knowledge they had spent their lives learning, the rigorous logic they had built up, was at this moment shattered by a small, tongue-flicking reptile.

’Chameleon...’

’Just because he looked at a Chameleon?’

’Then what does our work over these decades, these hundreds of projects, the efforts of thousands of top scientific researchers, amount to? Are we not even as good as a Chameleon?’

This thought emerged in the heart of every Expert, making them feel as if their scientific faith was collapsing.

This dead silence, after lasting for nearly half a minute, was finally broken.

However, what broke the silence was not a return to reason, but an even crazier outburst!

These Experts seemed to have reached a strange consensus—since it couldn’t be understood through science, then just give up on understanding it!

No matter how he managed to do it, getting this person to their own unit was the only truth!

”Engineer Li!”

Having figured this out, Academician Zhang Jingmin, the Chief Engineer of Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group, saw his eyes burst with an even brighter red light than before. The way he looked at Li Jiajun was no longer looking at a genius, but at a living, walking god of inspiration!

”Say no more! I understand! I understand everything!” He shouted excitedly, not caring what exactly he understood, ”Your kind of insight into observing nature cannot be buried! Come to our Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group, I’ll give you my laboratory—no, I’ll give you my office! You can raise as many Chameleons as you want in there!”

”Old Zhang, have you lost your mind! Can raising Chameleons make things fly?” The person in charge from the Navy pushed Zhang Jingmin aside and said eagerly to Li Jiajun, ”Engineer Li! Our Navy’s sonar system has always simulated dolphins! You must understand dolphins too! Come to us, I’ll give you half of the aircraft carrier’s command room!”

”Get lost, all of you!” The bigwig from the Ordnance Group also had red eyes. He felt that reasoning with this group was useless, so he simply took action, grabbed Li Jiajun’s other arm, and tried to pull him to his side, ”Engineer Li, don’t listen to their nonsense! Our Army is the most practical! Come with us, and I guarantee no one will dare to disturb you while you study the animal world!”

The scramble, which had just paused for a moment, erupted again in an even more violent and unreasonable way.

If the last time they were fighting over talent, this time they were fighting over a deity!

Li Jiajun was being pulled and tugged by them, feeling like he could be torn apart on the spot at any moment. He was completely terrified; the eyes of this group of Old Experts were completely beyond the scope of humanity—it was a gaze mixed with fanaticism and possessiveness.

’Help! These people have completely lost their minds!’

’If this continues, I’m going to fall apart!’

’No, I have to say something to make them calm down!’

His survival instinct reached its peak at this moment. Li Jiajun’s mind went blank. Almost with a crying tone, he used all his strength to roar out the most real and simple wish in his heart:

”Stop fighting! Leaders, Grandfathers! Please, stop fighting!”

”I... I’m just someone who makes toys!”

”I’m not that great! I really didn’t think that much! I just want to honestly run my toy factory and bring a little happiness and dreams to children across the country! I just want to be a... a glorious People’s Toy Craftsman!”

This heartfelt cry, delivered with a tearful tone, was like a basin of ice water instantly poured over the heads of all the fanatical bigwigs.

The entire warehouse fell silent once again.

The scrambling stopped, and the fanatical gazes cooled down. Everyone stared blankly at the young man in front of them who was about to be scared to tears by them.

Bringing happiness and dreams to children?

The People’s Toy Craftsman?

The bigwigs chewed on these words, looking at Li Jiajun’s face, which seemed incomparably sincere due to fear. Then, associating it with his earlier statement about taking a look at the Chameleon, they conjured up an image in their minds: a genius with a childlike heart who was indifferent to fame and fortune, who had accidentally glimpsed the truths of the universe from nature, yet didn’t care at all, only wanting to use this God-given talent to create the best toys for children.

What noble sentiments! What a transcendent state of mind!

For a moment, everyone was deeply convinced by this strange state of mind of Li Jiajun.

Academician Zhang Jingmin of Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group looked at Li Jiajun, the fanaticism in his eyes gradually fading, replaced by a profound, heartfelt admiration and emotion. He let go of Li Jiajun’s arm and muttered to himself:

”A peerless national scholar... viewing divine skills as nothing, only caring for a pure heart... This is the true peerless national scholar!”

The atmosphere at the scene instantly transformed from a fanatical wet market into a solemn commendation meeting. All the bigwigs looked at Li Jiajun with a gaze of awe and respect, as if they were paying homage to a monument.

However, right in this moving atmosphere, a discordant voice broke this solemnity.

Liu Jianguo, who had been standing on the periphery and trying hard to hold back his laughter, simply couldn’t help it anymore. He listened to Li Jiajun’s noble declaration and then looked at the group of Experts around him who were about to be moved to tears, the corners of his mouth twitching wildly.

He thought of the Israel ace armored brigade that had been turned upside down by this kid’s Swarm Drone, and then thought of the Baishui City police who had been driven to collective collapse by his dragon knight no. 1 stealth car.

Liu Jianguo leaned over to the ear of the Old General next to him, who was also wearing an expression of admiration, and whispered a complaint that only the two of them could hear:

”He brings happiness to children... but what he brings to us is nothing but surprises...”

The sound of this complaint was not loud, but in the quiet warehouse, it was enough to be heard by a few bigwigs nearby with sharp ears. The expressions of being moved on the faces of those few bigwigs instantly stiffened.

Liu Jianguo’s words were like a key, opening the floodgates of their memory.

That’s right...

Swarm Drone... toy?

Optical stealth car... children’s toy?

The emotion and admiration on the bigwigs’ faces faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by an extremely strange expression. They looked at each other, the corners of everyone’s mouths twitching uncontrollably; they wanted to maintain their admiration, but once they thought of those surprises, they really couldn’t keep it together.

In the end, the expressions of all the bigwigs in the entire warehouse froze. They just stood there, looking at the innocent and harmless-looking People’s Toy Craftsman in front of them, collectively falling into an awkward silence of speechlessness.
