Chapter 145: The first earthquake warning

Views:

Outside the Army Ant Company, this is a temporarily arranged venue.

Many reporters were looking forward to it and whispering to each other from time to time. The matter is now very big, and the unknown instrument of the Marching Ant Company has become an international incident. However, there was no response from Army Ant Company.

That instrument was rumored to be a seismograph on the Internet, and the analysis was sound and well-founded. However, Army Ant Company has not really confirmed the news, and everyone is just speculating. This reception of the Army Ant Company should give an answer.

Army Ant Company has been pushed to the forefront because of the instrument incident. If you don’t give the necessary answers, you will definitely be in trouble in the future.

While everyone was waiting anxiously, Chen Mo appeared soon. His appearance immediately became the focus.

All photographers focused their lenses on Chen Mo. This young man is the man behind the Army Ant Company and one of the most influential figures at the moment.

Chen Mo appeared in front of the microphone and stood still. Everyone fell silent, their eyes blazing.

After glancing around, Chen Mo said, "I came out today to make a formal response to the island nation's salvage of our company's instruments."

As soon as Chen Mo opened his mouth, many people started whispering. In just one sentence, Chen Mo had already admitted that the instruments taken away by the island country were confirmed to belong to the Army Ant Company.

"This instrument is a test equipment placed by our company in international waters. The island country's government's salvage has caused losses to our company. We have contacted the embassy of the island country to handle the matter. If there is specific information, we will announce it to you as soon as possible. Everyone."

Chen Mo's words were neither painful nor unpleasant, making all the reporters look at each other.

They were sure that things were definitely not that simple. Until now, Army Ant Company has remained tight-lipped about the device, so there must be something unknown about it.

"I heard that the equipment was dropped by the scientific expedition team. Is this true? This incident has caused misunderstandings in the international community and damaged the country's image. What is your March Ant Company's response?"

As soon as the reporter asked this question, there was a commotion on the ground. This reporter’s question has sinister intentions.

The reporter who asked the question wore black-rimmed glasses, had dark skin, and did not have an outstanding appearance. He looked a bit polite. Feeling the attention of everyone, the reporter dodged his eyes, but remained calm, but did not dare to look directly into Chen Mo's eyes.

Chen Mo looked at him deeply.

"Let me reiterate, the equipment was dropped by our Army Ant Company. The place we dropped it was in international waters. It was a normal test equipment. We are doing normal research activities. The island country salvaged our company's equipment. The fault does not lie with us."

"There is a rumor online that the equipment your company is putting out is a seismograph. Is this true? Is Army Ant Company researching seismometers?" A female reporter took the microphone.

"You all want to know the answer, right?" Chen Mo glanced around the field and smiled when he saw many scorching eyes: "It is indeed a seismograph."

As soon as these words came out, the venue became noisy.

Seismograph, this has always been a rumor on the Internet, but now Chen Mo admits it personally without any hesitation. This sentence is more official than the official website. The official website sent the message wrong, and an intern blocked the knife. This was said by Chen Mo himself, and it has a completely different meaning.

Chen Mo's words almost confirmed the speculation on the Internet.

Among the many reporters, many have reported on Chen Mo's earthquake warning paper. When the report came out, the ridicule on the Internet directly overwhelmed all major news platforms.

That was almost the largest online violence incident in recent years.

Now Chen Mo once again bluntly said that Army Ant Company is researching seismometers. If it is implemented according to the original paper, everyone owes Army Ant Company an apology.

"So, the seismograph has been developed? You have put it into testing. What are the test results? Can it really predict earthquakes? If the seismograph falls into the hands of an island country, will the related technology be leaked?"

"Theoretically, it can be predicted, but the technology has yet to be verified. Currently, there is not much plate activity in the areas we are testing. If there is news, we will contact the local government as soon as possible. There is no possibility of leakage of the technology."

The press conference has just ended, and various reports have appeared on the Internet.

Especially Chen Mo's personal admission of studying seismometers was almost a bombshell dropped into the quiet lake.

In the saliva of some people, the Army Ant Company has already made the instrument. Regardless of whether it can be used, at least the Army Ant Company has been working hard in this area.

With the seismograph gimmick, many people no longer care about anything else. More people are concerned about whether the seismometer can be used and whether some technology will be leaked if it falls into the hands of island countries.

The news quickly spread abroad. No matter which country it was installed, an instrument that claimed to be able to predict earthquakes was a big deal, and it was impossible for the media not to pay attention to it.

As soon as the news spread, it attracted unanimous ridicule from the foreign media, just like when the paper first came out. They all believed that Army Ant Company was conducting surveillance activities under a cover.

Li Lingfeng had a dark face. He had already contacted the embassy of the island country, but now the other party was using various excuses to evade it. It was obvious that he did not want to return it, at least for the time being.

They are just a company and there is really nothing they can do against the island country.

"They said the instrument was found in their territorial waters, and they are now confirming who it belongs to. They will get back to us when there is news. Not only that, I wanted to apply for a visa to go to the island country for processing, but it was rejected. They thought people from our company might be engaged in espionage. .”

After hearing Li Lingfeng's words, Chen Mo and Zhao Min didn't look too good.

The island country wanted to cheat and not return the equipment to them. Perhaps it wanted to study the equipment thoroughly before returning it to them. Now they are actually using this method to cut off their way to get it back.

"In this case, then don't do it. One day, when the island country comes to ask for help, I will let them know what disgusting is." Chen Mo talked.

"Are you sure the technology will not be leaked?" Zhao Min looked at Chen Mo.

"Don't I understand what I'm studying? Without core algorithms, seismographs are just a big lump of technology. Many countries have those technologies, but they don't combine them like this.

The most important thing is the algorithm in the chip, which is the soul of the instrument. The chip had been burned when they forcibly salvaged it. "

Zhao Min did not question Chen Mo's statement. In this regard, including ten of her, she could not compare with Chen Mo.

"You still have to do it, and you have to show off to the outside world."

They all knew that it was unlikely they would come back.

Even if I come back, it will take a long time. I am not the first to hear about the barbarism of that country.

If the equipment belongs to the scientific expedition team, it will definitely take less than a few days for the superiors to come forward. They are just an ordinary company, and the scientific expedition team has done their best to help them deliver the equipment.

"I leave this matter to you. You don't need to spend too much energy here for the time being. The instrument is broken. It needs to be repaired when you get it back. It would be bad to waste too much time."

Zhao Min agreed and left with Li Lingfeng.

There was a debate about the seismograph outside, and Chen Mo had free time again, and he no longer paid attention to the seismograph.

He knew that no matter how hard he tried, the hope of getting it back was still very small. It's not worth wasting too much time on a broken device.

But the quiet days did not last long. A week later, Chen Mo received the first earthquake warning.

"Brother Mo, the seismometer sent back information that in the western Pacific Ocean, at 37.5 degrees north latitude and 146.2 degrees east longitude, there is a geomagnetic anomaly in this area. In two hours, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 on the Richter scale may occur. The depth and center of the earthquake source are unknown. "

Mo Nu's voice interrupted Chen Mo who was in the middle of the experiment. This is the first earthquake warning since he put in the seismograph.

After the seismometer detects a destructive earthquake with a magnitude of 5.0, it will proactively send back a message warning. Now is the time to test whether the seismometer is working.
