Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 406 Return to Mars
2037 3 Month 15 Day.

At 18:[-] Haicheng time, after the signing ceremony of the "Roman Convention" in the city of Rome was completed, the Dream World server was shut down for maintenance and version update.

However, this version update will no longer clear the player's data, but only adds treasure map fragments and the "Ascension" function.

After 2 hours, the server restarted and opened, and the Battle of Dawn officially started.

After Zhong Cheng returned to Beishan, he adjusted his deployment in the Dream World.

He arranged for people to screen the company's personnel who were talented in martial arts, and these people would devote themselves to practicing, regardless of anything else.

Others are organized to collect natural materials and treasures in the game to create weapons and equipment.

He entrusted the task of collecting treasure maps to the Shanhai Fund, and asked the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce to issue a reward in the game to buy the treasure map fragments at a sky-high price of 1000 million copies.

He believes that there is no organization in the Asian Federation that can compete with the Red Star Company for financial resources.

If it weren't for the rules that prohibit hostile takeovers in other continents, he believed that he would be able to prevent the Mutual Aid Society from leaving the West Sky Continent.

The national treasure hunting activity started, and in the first month, 108 treasure map fragments were discovered, making 108 players rich overnight, which also aroused the enthusiasm of countless ordinary players.

But only 54 treasure map fragments appeared in the second month, 27 in the third month, only 10 in the fourth month, and only 3 in the fifth month.

Only then did everyone realize that the three years the expert team said to collect the treasure map fragments were not groundless.

This requires not only the joint efforts of players from one continent, but also the patience of everyone.

The progress of collecting treasure maps in the other three continents is similar.

The War of Dawn has entered a period of steady development!

9 month 25 day.

The Asian Federation held the third chief executive officer election. With the promotion of various forces, Lu Yao won the victory without any risk and was elected as the second chief executive officer of the Asian Federation.

Because the world is currently in a "wartime state", the biggest responsibility of the current federal government is to win the Battle of Dawn.

So Lu Yao said with a smile that he was ordered in the face of danger and was a wartime chief executive officer.

10 month 15 day.

The main body of the Mars ladder construction project under the responsibility of Red Star Company was completed and put into use, and the Xuanwu [-] and [-] spacecraft rolled off the production line.

The great development of Mars has started!

Zhong Cheng took time out of his busy schedule to go to Mars and presided over the development project kick-off meeting held on Mars.

He was also accompanied by Li Mei, Gui Bin and Zhong Xin. The research and development of ultra-distance communication technology in charge of the three was completed ahead of schedule.

This trip to Mars is a test of communication between Earth and Mars.

If the ultra-distance communication technology is successful, it will be an epoch-making achievement, and it will solve one of the two mountains that prevent human beings from going to the universe.

Another big mountain is the speed of the spacecraft, and it is even more difficult to break the limit of the speed of light.

In addition, the ultra-distance communication technology can also allow people on Mars to enjoy the benefits of the Great Dream World, which may be more important to the current human beings.

In this year, Red Star Company has more than 100 million people on Mars, and it will increase significantly in the past two years.

And companies and people from the Asian Federation other than Red Star Company will flock here!

At present, Mars has reached the perigee again, only more than 6000 million kilometers away from the earth.

Zhong Cheng's Xuanwu-18 spacecraft reached Mars in [-] hours.

This made Zhong Xin and the three of them on their first space trip extremely amazed. They never imagined that Mars is so "close"!
That is, 30 years ago on earth, when taking a train from Chengdu to Haicheng.

But what shocked the three of them the most was that Mars did not look completely red from the outside, but rather colorful.

Because the dust in the Martian atmosphere has not yet completely settled, the surface of Mars is covered by pink clouds.

It looks very unnatural, and the traces of artificial transformation are still very obvious!
Xuanwu-[-] slowed down and entered the Yinghuocheng spaceport above the Martian equator.

At this time, the city of Yinghuo, Deimos, could not see the appearance of a natural satellite at all, and a large number of buildings were built on its appearance with a diameter of about 6 kilometers.

Its interior has also been built as the elevator cabin transit center of the Mars ladder and the spaceport passenger transit center.

A cylindrical ladder with a diameter of about 30 meters extends from the interior of Yinghuo City to the surface of Mars. There are 8 vacuum operation channels in it, which are much smaller than the space ladder on Earth.

An hour later, Zhong Cheng took the three of them to the Meridian City on the ground by taking the Mars Ladder.

Everyone walked out of the transfer center of the ladder on the ground, and was surprised to find that Meridian City was completely exposed to the atmosphere of Mars.

And they don't need spacesuits or mechas to move around in the open air.

Although Zhong Cheng already knew about this situation, he was still extremely excited. After only two years, he set foot on the surface of Mars again, and the situation on Mars is completely different.

At this time, the Meridian Plateau was no longer the desolate land when he landed on Mars. A human city had already sprung up, with tall buildings and green plants everywhere.

The place where he planted the flag has been built into a huge square, and a statue more than 100 meters high based on him is erected in the center of the square.

Standing with hands behind their backs, the statue looks to the east. There are four gold-plated characters on the base: "A single spark starts a prairie fire".

Zhong Cheng frowned secretly, Zhou Hu must have done this, even though he was far away on Mars, it was a bit too ostentatious.

Zhou Hu, Zheng Yilun, Yang Xi, Lin Wei and other principal persons in charge of the Mars development project welcomed Zhong Cheng and others into the Red Star Building just north of the square.

On the way, Zhong Xin couldn't help asking, is the composition of Mars' atmosphere exactly the same as that of Earth now?
Yang Xi explained, how could it be so fast!

Now they can breathe freely in Meridian City, because hundreds of large-scale oxygen generators have been installed in the city to deliver oxygen to the urban air at any time, ensuring an oxygen content of about 21%.

But in the wild of Mars, the atmosphere contains only about 15% oxygen, and humans cannot survive.

However, algae plants all over the world have proliferated in large numbers, and wood grain planting has also begun. Coupled with artificial large-scale oxygen production, it is estimated that in three or four years, humans will be able to move freely in the wild on Mars.

The buildings on Mars are different from those on the earth and the moon. They are not too tall. The tallest building is the [-]-story Red Star Building, which is generally five-story buildings.

Because the most indispensable thing on Mars now is land.

At present, the newly formed oceans, rivers and lakes only account for one-third of the surface area of ​​Mars, and the land area is equivalent to two-thirds of the earth's land area.

There are only more than 100 million people on such a huge land, even in the next 30 years, the population will not exceed 20 billion.

After all, there are too many places in the solar system for human habitation, and 30 years later, other star systems will also be developed, and the human population will only feel too small.

Five years ago, the three major federations successively introduced policies to encourage the population to have children.

After the rise of Dream World last year, the overall level of human consumption has declined, and the Asian Federation has even released the most radical policy to encourage births in history.

The more children are born, the heavier the reward is, and the child's upbringing and education expenses are fully borne by the state. A couple can make a fortune by having children.

Free nursery halls have even been established in some administrative districts. Babies can be fully cared for from birth and raised by professionals. The parents only need to come to play with the children every day.

Population is also a concept of resources, which can be improved infinitely!
