Miss Beautiful C.E.O and her system

"Russian way works." Tang Ziyi said with a smirk. "But my shield is different. You already knew the special ballistic protection clothing, worn by your subordinates. They were light yet extremely resistant to impact. There are other benefits but they aren't important in our context."

"So…" Ling Qingyu guessed what Tang Ziyi wanted to say next but she wasn't sure.

"Since I can manufacture light bulletproof armor clothing, what makes you think I cannot do the same for Kevlar-like vests, shields, and helmets." Tang Ziyi smiled and spread her hands.

F**k. Ling Qingyu already felt like Tang Ziyi was too cheating!

With Athena's existence, they could take over the world, even without her control. Ling Qingyu felt lucky the two were allies instead of her opponents. She really sweated for her enemies.

"God damnit." Ling Qingyu cussed under her breath. "I'm really happy and scared at the same time. This dichotomy of two emotions is the first time I ever experienced."

"Do you wanna listen to the details?"

"Sure, I'm all ears. Any new technology raises my interest. Too bad, I can't use them for business yet." Ling Qingyu replied with regret.

The technologies Tang Ziyi and Athena discovered together in mere weeks could shock the entire world. Any of their products could easily suppress the opponents, which was what most businesspeople sought after.

Ling Qingyu hadn't consolidated her position and prestige, despite her economic strength in Province N yet. Where would she have the opportunity to freely engage in the defense industry—the number one driver of every country's economy, especially for powerful countries?

Before she had time to sell her products and gain profits, her industry was likely to be eaten by others at the top of the food chains.

Until she could hurt them, she better not engage in those industries and make a delicious meal for others instead.

But Tang Ziyi's and Athena's success reminded Ling Qingyu of the enormous research capability she possessed, in terms of calculations, simulation and testing.

If there was a talented scientist under her arms, the progress might be faster than theirs. Ling Qingyu kept the option of searching for a possible talent in the future in her mind.

Hearing Ling Qingyu's idea to endeavor, Tang Ziyi smiled. "You'll have your own show soon. I've talked about the armor clothing last time but haven't explained in detail."

Ling Qingyu listened to Tang Ziyi speaking about the products, she and Athena produced. Having known the armored clothing during the chaos last time to affirm her decision to send her guards to help Yang Qingyue, which had opened Ling Qingyu's eyes, the other products didn't cause too much ripple in her heart. But she remained shocked as she listened more.

Tang Ziyi's mission in the past world obtained secret data of a special soft type of clothing, which was resilient and tough enough to resist explosion and high-velocity shrapnel impact, capable of defending against bullet rounds.

Even in the current world, the resources to synthesize a new metal element were expensive and time-consuming. However, the nano-advanced printer Athena possessed solved everything.

Although it couldn't be called mass productions, synthesizing them in larger numbers to suit the needs of her guards didn't seem like a daunting task. Despite harsh requirements and stringent constrictions to produce one, the nano printer served its maximum role.

Instead of directly manufacturing the products, nano printers could produce raw materials as long as the materials' properties and variables were known.

According to Tang Ziyi's description, the black special tactical clothing, worn by her guards, resembled the prototypes, envisioned by many superpowers in their concepts for future soldiers. Even Russians in her past world had tested out similar frag-suits.

Ling Qingyu was stunned to see, that her guards had equipment exceeding the state of the arts of all nations. "By the way, you said fragsuits?" Ling Qingyu inquired.

"Yes, it's fragsuit. You should have seen their videos, flaunting the success, which is probably propaganda—a fully armed person walking through minefields of explosions and trails of bullets." Tang Ziyi described the scene with a shrug.

Ling Qingyu nodded doubtfully. She seemed to have seen the same scenes but she wasn't too sure, because Tang Ziyi's description also depicted the exact scenes she had seen in the drone footage during the fierce combat last week with her guards fighting against the gangs.

In any case, while countries were still facing blockades and shortages of data, her team of Tang Ziyi and Athena had succeeded in a breakthrough. But Tang Ziyi still reminded without Athena's nano printer, the production was still incapable, which meant they had yet to succeed.

So, mass production and sales for them to the national defense force were miles away from the shore. Nonetheless, equipping for themselves was enough, without costing anything.

Only a week had passed, and the special clothing had been upgraded to a newer version. With an addition of 2 kg weight, the clothing was more resistant and contained the spreading of force concept, seen in the movie of Marvel Black Panther.

Although Ling Qingyu had no idea how the concept worked, Tang Ziyi and Athena managed to design them and included them in the clothing through a woven thin fiber network inside.

The special fiber, despite its tiny size made from a new element, when combined together into clothing could now even resist armor-piercing calibers, including 50-caliber rounds without causing damage to the wearer's body through shock.

The result totally contrasted the first prototypes' features. Having stronger protection raised Ling Qingyu's guards' confidence.

But, Ling Qingyu asked: "What's the use of shields then if your clothing can resist? I think it's unnecessary, right?"

Tang Ziyi nodded. "Yes, you're correct. Yet, you don't put importance to hiding the secrets. What if others know about our products? It's better to hide as much as we can till we display to the public."

"Are you sure that's the reason?" Ling Qingyu eyed Tang Ziyi beside her suspiciously. "Come on, tell me the truth."

Tang Ziyi slapped her forehead and clicked her tongue. "At least, direct impact can be avoided through shield protection. There would be no pain unlike the clothing resisting the damage. After all, warriors will be in trouble during the period they suffer sudden pain."

Ling Qingyu's brows twitched. Soldiers were afraid of pain. What nonsense explanation? Perhaps, Ling Qingyu's expression was too obvious, Tang Ziyi immediately retorted.

"Don't underestimate the degree pain can affect the battlefield. During the fierce exchange, a soldier might be stunned for a few seconds when extreme pain impacted his or her brain." Tang Ziyi explained. "Although it's only a short period of time, in battle, everything can change even in a second. The enemies might exploit the gap."

Ling Qingyu nodded, controlling herself from smiling at Tang Ziyi's forceful explanation. Even though Tang Ziyi's depiction of the situation had some points, but usage of a shield to prevent pain was pure nonsense.

"Who in the right mind would shoot above a 50-Caliber machine gun portable, without a stable position? Maneuverability is more important than shield protecting limiting mobility." Ling Qingyu retorted. "Are you going to stand against the huge guns mounted on the vehicles with shields?"

Imagining the scenes of brave soldiers using her shields against the rapidly firing armored vehicles like Bradley and BMP, Tang Ziyi collapsed mentally. The picture was too unsightly.
