From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius

A sharp intake of breath swept the room—

Everyone present was a pillar of the nation; they never flinched in the face of a crisis.

But upon hearing what Chloe Sinclair said, the room instantly broke into an uproar.

What did the term "All-Purpose Robot" even imply?

A single robot capable of search and rescue, medical assistance, and military applications.

The implications of such research were terrifying.

Joel Quincy’s eyes narrowed. "Young lady," he asked, "what about the cost?"

Chloe Sinclair met his gaze, her reply calm and measured. "It’s expensive."

Chloe Sinclair wasn’t lying. The nation’s technology was not yet fully developed, so many materials had to be imported.

But things were different now.

Chloe Sinclair’s eyes grew resolute. "But that’s only temporary," she stated. "Give me one year. I can manufacture everything myself, and I can cut the cost down to ten percent."

Ten percent?!!

Even Joel Quincy was shocked.

To reduce the cost to a mere ten percent... the implications were staggering.

If she could really achieve that, it would save the country tens of billions a year.

And that was just the baseline. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

If they could develop these materials themselves, other nations would undoubtedly flock to them for cooperation. The potential profits were even more immense...

This was about more than just the financial benefits.

’But she’s just a young girl who’s never had formal training in this. How could she possibly develop all of that in such a short time?’

At this thought, Joel Quincy’s expression fell.

Mr. Sutton, however, had witnessed Chloe Sinclair’s genius firsthand and was filled with anticipation.

He posed a question. "What exactly did you mean by ’All-Purpose Robot’?"

It was common knowledge that robots were currently used most often in industry and agriculture, but they were expensive and lacked stability.

If, as Chloe Sinclair claimed, these robots could handle search and rescue and provide medical aid, then once the technology was widely adopted, human sacrifice would be drastically reduced.

Over the years, firefighting, policing, and search and rescue operations had consumed an enormous amount of manpower and resources.

But with rescue-capable robots, things would be different.

Fewer lives would be lost, and public safety would be more secure.

Chloe Sinclair glanced at Landon Sinclair, who was standing to her left. He gave her a nod, encouraging her to continue.

So, Chloe Sinclair continued, "The ’All-Purpose Robot’ I’m describing is exactly what it sounds like. And most importantly, its use isn’t limited to large-scale deployment. In the near future, every single person will be able to own one."

With that, Chloe Sinclair brought up her presentation and gave an overview of the All-Purpose Robot’s capabilities and development data.

Of course, she deliberately omitted White’s capacity for autonomous evolution.

She was certain that if she revealed her research into autonomous evolution, these senior officials would immediately lose their minds.

After all, just the concept of an All-Purpose Robot had already captured everyone’s full attention.

Therefore, Chloe Sinclair decided to strike while the iron was hot and called White over.

The moment White entered, the entire venue fell silent.

Just moments before, they had assumed Chloe Sinclair was only presenting a nascent theory!

They never expected her to have a finished product ready!

Everyone’s eyes widened as they stared at the little robot, its eyes glowing with blue light.

"A robot like this can perform search and rescue?"

Someone asked, their voice full of doubt.

After all, the idea of such a chubby little thing going on a rescue mission was simply unbelievable.

’It would probably get stuck in a doorway before it even made it inside, right?’
