Chapter 185 You Have to Be a Dog Occasionally

While Lei Gang was excited that he was about to witness the opening of an era with his own eyes, on the other side of the sea, a large number of professionals were urgently summoned in the strategic analysis office to discuss the authenticity of the Nantianmen plan.

Eisen did not attend the meeting because his health was not good, but everyone could see that after a period of high-intensity work that failed to achieve any results, his spirit had almost been wiped out.

The one who organized the meeting instead of him was a middle-aged man with bald hair. In front of him was all the information he could collect about the Nantianmen Project. He was looking at the information while communicating with other people in the meeting room. .

".So, judging from the information we have now, how authentic is this project? Can anyone give me an accurate answer?"

Everyone in the meeting room was silent for a moment, and then a man in a pure black shirt replied:

"There is currently no reliable evidence to prove the authenticity of the project, but we have analyzed several sets of concept maps and simple announcements they released, and extracted the technical concepts involved."

"Judging from the results of the analysis of this information, it is not particularly optimistic."

"What they have shown is very superficial, but if we analyze it according to our experience, it is completely correct."

"For example, the nuclear-powered large aircraft project they mentioned is almost exactly the same as the previous project we and Mao Xiong have done, except that their design is more advanced."

"Another example is the so-called simulation system in the concept map. We are also working on this, but the scale is far less than theirs. After analysis by technicians, none of the conceptual wording they used was made up. It is very likely that , They are really already working on it, and have even achieved certain results.”

After listening to the man in the shirt, the bald man frowned.

"Are you sure? I always find it a little unbelievable for such a super-large project. What's even more unbelievable is that they just said that?"

The man in the shirt gave a wry smile, and replied:

"That's what I'm really worried about."

"The scale and ambition of the Nantianmen project are already astonishing enough, and they even dare to release this plan through a public platform like this, which shows that everyone should know what it is."

"What is our opponent's working method? Equip one generation, develop one generation, and when the next generation is not in research and development, this generation will definitely not come up with equipment."

"You should have heard the saying on the Internet, 'too backward to show'. I feel that the Nantianmen project has a bit of this meaning."

"They want to use this project to send a signal to us, warning us not to engage in unnecessary confrontation, because what they are plotting is not what we see at all."

After the man in the shirt finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room fell into deep thought.

According to consistent experience, their opponents indeed have such a style, and what they can say must be something they are [-]% sure of.

But if you analyze it logically, it feels a little incredible.

Is the technology involved in such a huge project really something they can overcome in a short period of time?

25 years sounds like a long time, but for the development of technology, it is actually a very short period of time.

In this extremely short period of time, the things they have to do and the technologies to overcome are massive.

Is this really possible to accomplish?
In all fairness, if one's own country has the courage to come up with such a project, within 30 to 40 years, it is possible to complete all technological breakthroughs and achieve the goal set by the other party, but this is already based on its own technology On the basis of being more advanced than the other party.

The other party is obviously still at a disadvantage, so how could they come up with a plan that even their own side dare not mention?
Unusual.

After a moment of silence, the bald man continued to ask:
"Is it possible that this is a strategy? Do you all remember the space arms race before? We also proposed many advanced plans at that time, and convinced our enemies of these plans, and finally succeeded in dragging down the them."

The man in the shirt shook his head and replied:
"Don't have such a fluke mentality. The way our opponents work is completely different from ours. Are there few examples like this?"

"We used to talk about building electromagnetic guns, just to cheat some congressional budgets. What happened? They did it."

"Later it was said that we were going to do lasers, but we gave up because of budgetary issues, and they came up with it again."

"Afterwards, drone swarm operations, waverider missiles, dual-pulse missile engines, artificial starch, space stations, moon landings, and dark matter capture were all just bragging, but they took it seriously every time."

"The most important thing is that they can really make it after they take it seriously."

"Such an opponent, you still dare to suspect that they are playing psychological warfare with us? Stop kidding me, the only thing we can do is, no matter how the current public opinion reacts, no matter how other countries react , we must take it seriously!"

"They are not Yindu. They will take everything they say seriously!"

The bald man scratched his head silently, with an expression of embarrassment and shame on his face.

That's right, it's them themselves who often engage in strategic deception, the rabbits across the sea, but they never play tricks.

But if this tone is confirmed, their coping options become extremely limited.

Or rather, only one.

That is, if you do it, we will do it too.

Thinking of this, he said:
"Since everyone agrees with this point of view, I think our strategy is very clear, that is, we can only join the competition."

"We have to surpass them both economically and technically. If we really compete on the same stage, we will not be slower than them."

"Isn't it the Nantianmen project? We can also do the Valhalla project and the Mount Olympus project. In short, we have to compete against each other and suppress them."

"How do you want to compete?"

Before he finished speaking, the man in the shirt interrupted immediately.

The bald man was taken aback for a moment, then replied:
"What does it mean to compete? Am I not clear enough? We also want to start similar programs, and the scale is bigger than them. Is this difficult to understand?"

The man in the shirt gave him a sympathetic look, then said helplessly:
"Do you think it's that easy? To launch such a huge project is a huge challenge to the organization, coordination, and execution capabilities of the entire country-of course, this does not mean that we cannot do it. My question is, why? to do?"

"What do you mean? Don't you think the other party is playing for real? Why did you suddenly start to object?"

The bald man had a puzzled look on his face.

"It's not that I object. I'm just imitating the tone of the masters of Congress. If I am the masters of that group, now I ask you, why are we doing this?"

".Because the opponent did."

"Adversary has done it, do we have to do it? Spending so much money, will there be results? Can't we spend this money in other places? For example, maintaining world peace, such as grabbing oil, such as supporting our beliefs, donating To the Holy See, aren’t these places short of money?”

The bald man was dumb for a moment.

He was all too familiar with such questions.

Every time he applies for a budget, he has to answer these questions repeatedly, and the questioners don't care about the answers at all, they just don't want to give them.

Their eyes can only see the real interests.

After sighing, the bald man asked:

"So according to what you mean, we have nothing to do with their plans? Can we just watch?"

The man in the shirt shook his head and replied:
"It's not that there is no way. In fact, the intention of the other party to announce this plan is also very obvious, that is, they want to avoid unnecessary disputes as much as possible."

"No matter what their ultimate goal is, at least, for now, their attitude is positive."

"Then, what we have to do is very simple."

"Rather than confrontation, it is better to cooperate, and interests come first."

"Cooperate with our enemies!?"

The bald man's eyes widened.

The man in the shirt spread his hands, leaned back on the chair, and replied:
"Otherwise? How about you go to persuade the Congress, do you think it's possible? Or, you take a plane and go to the Vatican to pray and pray, let God bless us, and then curse the failure of the other party's project?"

".I understand what you mean, and I will do it. However, the other party will hardly accept us. After all, we are still in a confrontation."

"Confrontation and cooperation are eternal coexistence, there is no clear dividing line. As for your worry that the other party will not accept us, then I can only say, you should show your sincerity, you have to try and do something .”

"If it doesn't work, let's make other plans."

"To be honest, if the other party has really laid the foundation for the so-called Nantianmen plan, then this time, I'm afraid it will be our turn to be the dog."
