Chapter 725
The more you go, the more you will be able to do.
After hearing what Su Mo said, Chief Zhao nodded thoughtfully and did not continue to ask.
The other generals sitting in the audience also understood a truth from Su Mo’s point of view.
That is, although Su Mo is a genius in the field of scientific research and is self-taught in the entertainment industry.
But in terms of military strategy, he is indeed a layman who knows nothing.
He just proposed the idea of combining electronic information warfare with meteorological warfare to learn from each other’s strengths and weaknesses.
It sounds very feasible and it seems to make sense.
But in fact…
Such a simple and easy-to-understand truth.
Su Mo, a layman, can think of it.
How could the generals present not think of it?
The reason why it doesn’t work is that it can be concluded based on the painful lessons of history.
Whenever a new combat method is introduced, the traditional combat method will suffer a dimensionality reduction blow!
Just like when the matchlock gun first appeared, many people did not think that this kind of fire stick that needed to be loaded slowly, could not be used on rainy days, and could explode if it was not handled properly, could replace the bow and crossbow that had been used for thousands of years.
However, the conservatives at that time overlooked a very important thing.
That is, the matchlock gun invented in the early days seemed to have various shortcomings, but it had great room for upgrading and improvement.
On the other hand, after a long development of thousands of years, the performance of the crossbow has reached its limit and it is difficult to make major breakthroughs.
Although there were many defects in the early matchlock guns, such as slow loading speed, great influence by weather and safety issues.
But it didn’t take long for someone to invent a flintlock gun with a more convenient and reliable ignition method on this basis.
Then, on the basis of the flintlock gun, muzzle-loading guns, breech-loading guns, rifled guns, and automatic firearms until now were developed.
Therefore, there were no easy-to-use matchlock guns like bows and crossbows in the early days.
The truly terrifying thing is that it opened the curtain of the era of hot weapons and changed the nature of war!
Just like not long after, the Maxim machine gun directly ended the myth of the cavalry’s invincibility for thousands of years.
The whole process was very sudden and cruel, with almost no transition period.
Similarly, in the Gulf War a few decades ago.
When the United States applied the brand-new electronic information warfare concept to the Kra country for actual combat exercises.
Not only was the Kra country stunned, but the countries on the blue star watching were even more frightened!
You know, the Kra country at that time was known as the fourth military power on the blue star!
With a million troops, nearly 10,000 tanks and armored vehicles, nearly 1,000 advanced fighters, and thousands of air defense and ground missiles.
Just when all countries in the world believed that the United States would be deeply mired in the quagmire of war this time and fight a protracted war.
However, no one expected that in just 100 hours after the war began.
The Eagle Sauce used a brand-new electronic information warfare mode to defeat the million-strong army of the Kra country across the board!
It took only 42 days from the start of the war to the end of the battle.
Hundreds of thousands of Kra soldiers were killed or wounded, while only 148 people died on the Eagle Sauce side.
This war can be said to have awakened the whole world!
It made all countries in the world deeply aware of the combat concept during World War II.
In the face of the new electronic warfare and informationized combat mode, they can only be crushed and beaten!
Similarly…
In the eyes of Chief Zhao and the generals.
The most terrifying thing about the catalytic rain bomb that Su Mo made is not itself, but the prelude to weather warfare.
Just like the emergence of the matchlock gun, the war mode has entered the era of hot weapons.
This means that future wars are no longer limited to land, sea and sky, and weather will also become a new main battlefield.
Every birth of a new combat method will be accompanied by the withdrawal of traditional combat methods.
This is a historical law and an irreversible trend!
The reason why Chief Zhao and the generals are prepared for a rainy day and focus on this point.
It is because historical experience has proven countless times that the breakthrough from 0 to 1 is extremely difficult.
However, the development and innovation from 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 is relatively simple, it is just a matter of time.
Humans can develop flintlocks, fixed rifles, automatic rifles, heavy machine guns… based on matchlocks.
Similarly, they can also develop meteorological weapons such as hail, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, etc. based on controlling rainfall.
Who
Whoever pays attention to development first will be the first to take the lead in the war.
However, the rise of any new weapon is often accompanied by huge potential risks.
This is especially true for the development of meteorological weapons. Once abused, the harm caused will be far beyond people’s imagination.
Moreover, the chain reaction caused by meteorological changes is more difficult to control than traditional weapons.
A large-scale meteorological manipulation is very likely to cause a global disaster!
If some countries develop meteorological weapons recklessly in pursuit of victory in the war.
Then world peace will face unprecedented threats, and the international order may collapse as a result!
Trust between countries has disappeared, and they are caught in endless suspicion and confrontation.
Once this Pandora’s box is opened, the catastrophic consequences it produces are more terrible than mushroom bombs!
But even if you don’t develop this weapon, who can guarantee that other countries will not study and use it?
You know, humans have always been very wise and unscrupulous in studying weapons to kill each other.
Once a war breaks out, there will be no humanitarianism, only life and death!
While Chief Zhao and the generals were constantly discussing whether to choose a new military track and vigorously develop meteorological weapons.
Su Mo’s mind and attention at this time were on the fan value.
“The Wandering Earth”, directed by him, has now been officially released for about four months.
And just two days ago, it successfully broke through the 10 billion box office, breaking the highest box office record in the history of Dragon Country!
Of course, “The Wandering Earth” can be more than half of the 4.686 billion box office in the previous life, and there are multiple factors superimposed.
First of all, the release time in the theater in the previous life was about two months.
In contrast, the release time of “The Wandering Earth” in the theater has been extended by nearly twice, and more tickets will naturally be sold.
As for why it can be shown in theaters for so long, it is naturally because this movie is popular enough and the popularity has never diminished.
The theater has money to make, so it will naturally continue to extend the release time.
In addition, in the previous life, the production cost of “The Wandering Earth” was only 320 million.
Now that Su Mo has no shortage of money, the production cost has directly exceeded 1.5 billion!
The cost is five times more, which brings a qualitative leap in special effects and visual effects!
