After confirming the relevant requirements from Chen Xin, the preparations for this research base soon began in full swing.

Instead of designing drawings first and then considering how to build on the site, the special forces camp was soon established outside Chen Xin's shelter.

It was still the previous mobile barracks, but after being upgraded and renovated by Chen Xin, they became easier to set up and move, and the insulation performance was better, so the construction was completed quickly, allowing these special forces to settle in.

However, this is just a temporary camp. After the construction of the scientific research base is completed, these special forces will be moved to the permanent camp built with the scientific research base.

Chen Xin also discussed the issue of the permanent camp with the political commissar of the special forces, because Chen Xin was not sure whether they were permanently stationed here, so some issues must be discussed.

Fortunately, this army had already obtained clear instructions before coming, and they would be responsible for protecting Chen Xin before receiving new orders.

They also received new instructions from their superiors. After the construction of the scientific research base is completed, they will be stationed here to be responsible for the security of the scientific research base.

This made Chen Xin feel much more relieved, and he also had plans for the construction of the barracks.

After all, if the special forces are not stationed here, but other troops or armed police are transferred, some facilities in the barracks will need to be changed.

If it is a special forces, Chen Xin can be assured and bold assigning some of his improved weapons and equipment to them, but if it is an ordinary force and an armed police, some equipment should obviously not be given directly to them.

Although the special forces, ordinary troops and armed police forces are both the troops of the Yan Kingdom, there are still differences in the levels of equipment and confidentiality between the troops.

Now that this unit has been confirmed that this unit will continue to protect itself, Chen Xin can naturally be assured and boldly provided some obviously black technology weapons to this special forces.

For example, the heavy mechas that had been provided to them before, Chen Xin once again provided them with the number of sufficient armed two combat teams, so that this special forces could further improve the equipment of heavy equipment.

In particular, Chen Xin was particularly kind enough to replace the 12.7mm rotary machine gun originally equipped on the right shoulder of the mecha with a 50mm portable short-barrel recoil-free cannon, and a short chain saw was installed on the right arm of the mecha, making this heavy mecha more and more like the Terminator armor in Warhammer 40K.

Of course, the troops were ecstatic about the equipment provided by Chen Xin. Which troops didn’t like this hard and thick pipe?

Moreover, they themselves are responsible for the mission and task of obtaining new equipment from Chen Xin. Now with Chen Xin's initiative to provide it, they can complete the tasks assigned by their superiors effortlessly. Why not do this?

As for their military superiors, they were so happy that they couldn't see the heavy mecha provided by Chen Xin. They only wanted more and there would be no objection.

Although many people say that mechas are not as good as tanks and are inferior in both firepower and defense, mechas are more flexible and can be deployed flexibly than tanks.

In an environment where tank deployment is inconvenient, the mecha can fill the defensive and firepower support lacked in infantry operations, provide strong support to the troops, and fill the gaps in the army in this regard.

After these heavy mechas were equipped with special forces, the military even prepared to send combat experts to study how these heavy mechas should be used and formulate new combat tactics for them.

This also led to Chen Xin's addition to different scientific research laboratories, and another military combat laboratory was added.

Chen Xin was happy to see this. After all, he planned to make something more fun afterwards. With the help of the military, many problems would be much simpler.

In terms of design drawings, due to the special environment of the apocalypse, many private design companies could naturally not continue to exist, and only design institutes belonging to state agencies can still bear the design work in this current environment.

Chen Xin’s scientific research base is under the responsibility of a design institute in Xingcheng, the capital of Hunan Province.

The reason why I found Xingcheng's design institute was mainly because Chen Xin was located in Xiang Province. He had been dealing with the three towns in Hubei Province before, which had already made the leaders of Hunan Province very disagree. Therefore, the design and construction of the scientific research base were snatched by the leaders of Hunan Province, in order to establish a good relationship with the academicians of the Supreme Academy of Sciences from this province.

In terms of design, the design institute intends to use steel span beams as support and then use lightweight materials and tempered glass to create the dome.

This is actually not difficult in design. Although the diameter of 500 meters sounds a bit exaggerated, there have been similar applications in airports, high-speed rail stations and gymnasiums. For Yan, a major infrastructure country, it is really nothing.

The design institute did not fail in this regard, and soon took out the first version of the design drawings.

The overall ecological dome adopts a yurt-like shape. The slightly curved circular dome is supported by twelve Ghost-shaped support columns. The circular dome itself is erected on the support columns in a form similar to a bracket, and then tempered glass with a hexagonal honeycomb structure is laid as the dome.

Overall, the design institute has not played any fun, and has adopted some very avant-garde designs. In addition to the hexagonal honeycomb structure glass, other places can even be described as simple.

But it is no wonder that in this environment, it is very unrealistic to build any design-like buildings. Everything should be based on practicality rather than pursuing a sense of art.

Although there are also designs that take into account both art and practicality, at present, practicality should be the priority.

Only when you have the extra effort can you take into account the artistic sense.

After determining the design plan, it is naturally the drawing of detailed construction drawings and the preparation of related materials and parts.

However, a problem that makes people feel difficult has almost made the project impossible.

The twelve supporting columns needed to build the dome are large metal components. Due to the need for support strength, the entire component needs to be formed in one piece. However, due to the disaster, the Yan Kingdom's industrial production capacity is still recovering, which is unable to complete the processing of such large metal components.

According to the design of the design institute, the height of a support column is more than 30 meters, and the horizontal branches that come out are more than 50 meters long. If you want to process them in one piece, you must also ensure the support strength. The high requirements for processing can be imagined.
