626 Playing a Part in the Construction Frenzy
“What?! A subway?”
When people all over the world heard the news, they were deeply shocked.
They all realized that Wu Mo was the chief planner of this subway project.
Besides, the subway project would employ the latest technology, which would definitely be an eye-opener for everyone.
Wu Mo did not personally head to Eternal Sun because he could use the remote monitoring system to guide the team.
Under his supervision, this subway construction plan would undoubtedly surpass the standards of all the subways on Earth.
Wu Mo’s subway would be a major artery for the transportation of human economic resources.
It would be very wide, and its length might reach a hundred kilometers!
In other words, once the subway was completed, construction materials could be transported over long distances through the subway. Then, high-rise buildings could be built on the ground.
As the chief engineer, Wu Mo had filled China’s entire construction team with excitement!
This was because back when they built the residential area, it turned out perfect under Wu Mo’s full guidance.
Everyone knew how meticulous he was when he was directing work.
He carefully considered the needs of every construction worker to ensure that they could get the rest they deserved while they fulfilled their duties.
Such an outstanding chief engineer was like a bright light in the night sky.
Soon, the ambitious subway project broke ground under Wu Mo’s strict supervision.
First, the superalloy drill bit was pushed into the ground. Then, it began to dig an underground tunnel that was a hundred kilometers long.
This was undoubtedly a difficult challenge for the superalloy tunneling machine. However, Wu Mo had absolute confidence in it.
He had obtained this technology from the system. Its invincible power could not be stopped even by ten layers of soil.
Once the complex alloy from space was turned into a drill, almost nothing could stop it.
As people around the world watched, the tunneling machine slowly and forcefully began to dig.
Although it was not shockingly fast, it still managed to advance five kilometers a day!
Based on this progress, it would take twenty days to complete a hundred-kilometer tunnel.
Twenty days was not a long time for the subway construction.
Under Wu Mo’s supervision, the tunnel was gradually formed. Next was the construction of the internal facilities, the laying of the subway track, and subsequent engineering.
Everything moved forward like a raging fire, and Wu Mo did not relax even for a moment.
During this period of time, he constantly trained his body and improved his physical fitness. Occasionally, he would drink some of the four great potions.
Even though the potions were not very effective on Wu Mo, they still had some health effects. Wu Mo would not give up the opportunity to improve that aspect of his life.
He was so busy that it had been a long time since he had spent time with Shen Qingya.
With that in mind, he began to miss the girl. Therefore, he gave her a call and asked her how she had been.
“Wu Mo, when will you find the time to see me?” Shen Qingya’s voice was filled with tenderness. She could make him feel the anticipation in her eyes even through the phone.
Wu Mo’s heart was slightly moved. The sense of longing he felt was like a breeze that gently tugged at his heartstrings.
He contemplated for a moment before he spoke.
There seemed to be some joy in his calm voice. “After I’m done with work this month, I’ll hand the subway plan over to someone else and go straight to Shanghai to see you.”
Shen Qingya’s laughter was comparable to a splash of spring water. It was cheerful and warm.
“Alright, Wu Mo. Focus on your work then. By the way, some of my classmates are hoping to get your autograph. They’re your fangirls!”
“My autograph?” Wu Mo asked in surprise. Nevertheless, he felt a little excited.
He actually had fans? Once upon a time, people were still chasing after celebrities in entertainment. But now, they were chasing after scientific researchers?
What era was this? However, Wu Mo did not hesitate at all and nodded with a smile.
“Sure, I’ll fulfill their request. I still owe you my autograph, don’t I? Even if they want a hundred autographs, it’s fine.”
After he ended the call, Wu Mo went back to his work. His goal was clear; he was going to complete the basic design of the subway.
He had to ensure the stability of each link and ensure that there were no quality problems.
He understood that a tiny mistake could lead to an irreversible disaster. He absolutely could not chance it.
While he worked, Wu Mo glanced at the system’s store and suddenly found a new construction tool.
His eyes lit up, and he immediately spent some points to buy it.
One could say that he was earning a lot at the moment. He no longer had to worry about points.
With the new construction tool, Wu Mo was not as nervous and busy as before.
It was a highly intelligent construction robot. It was like a walking encyclopedia of construction with an embedded smart system that could accurately execute all kinds of actions.
Bricklaying and building walls were all within its list of capabilities.
One of the robot’s most exquisite skills was wall building. It possessed superb craftsmanship.
Wu Mo was curious to find out how powerful the robot was.
Therefore, in the following live stream, Wu Mo chose a few experienced wall builders to have them compete with the robot.
“What? Mr. Wu, can this robot really keep up with us?”
The wall builders sensed an unprecedented challenge ahead of them.
They had been working in the industry for decades, and they had perfected their skills in that time.
They could build a perfect wall even with their eyes closed.
When Wu Mo challenged them with the robot, it felt like an offense to their craftsmanship.
However, Wu Mo had no intention of backtracking. Instead, he made an exciting suggestion.
“Let’s have a friendly match. The winner will get a reward.”
This idea immediately attracted the attention of the global audience, and they all turned their attention to the live stream.
In fact, some viewers had been getting a little tired of Wu Mo’s live streams and broadcasts. The endless digging and piling of soil often put people to sleep.
Some even joked that his live streams were the best medicine for insomnia. Therefore, some began to consider whether they should give up on watching the live stream.
However, with the introduction of the new robot, the focus of the live stream instantly changed. This robot became the new highlight that attracted the attention of many viewers.
When they saw Wu Mo comparing the robot with professional construction workers, the number of viewers in the live stream instantly increased by several times.
“How is this possible? The number of our viewers has tripled in an instant?”
The production manager could not believe the figures.
“That’s right. There were ten million viewers earlier, and now that number has soared to forty million!”
