From black technology to super engineering

Gobi Desert, aerospace training base.

Since domestic aerospace started routine moon landings, domestic astronauts have simplified the training process. Generally speaking, as long as the physical conditions are met, you can go to heaven after a short training.

After all, the current spaceflight has got rid of the situation in the previous era of fuel rockets that astronauts need to do everything by themselves, and has turned into a "space business trip" that performs its duties.

Therefore, when domestic astronauts go to space, they usually conduct three to five days of simulation first, then learn the rules for one day, and finally adapt to the low-gravity environment. The training is also done in Xichang.

But the space training base in Gobi does not mean that it is abandoned just like that.

Because... the international astronauts still need to use it!

Once the list of personnel is determined, international astronauts will complete at least three months of training here, including language, operating system, equipment operation, spacecraft rules, etc., and will be arranged to enter space after passing the test.

In the distance, a group of cars drove into the base from the asphalt road.

The current person in charge of the base is Yang Hongbo, the first captain of the Yaoyue. He walked out of the office after receiving the news, and went to the convoy together with his assistants.

When he saw the signs of these luxury cars, the corners of Captain Yang's mouth curled up without leaving a trace, and he stood there with a smile.

The car door opened, and several sandy young men in white robes stepped out of the car door and approached quickly under the greeting of the reception staff.

"Captain Yang, hello." Several people saluted together.

"Welcome, welcome." Captain Yang didn't expect the other party to be fluent in Chinese, slightly surprised, and shook hands with everyone with a smile: "Welcome to the space base."

"From now on, I'll be counting on Captain Yang." One of the leaders was smiling and kept saying politely, "We must train hard."

"Hehe, easy to say. You are so fluent in Chinese, you must have no problem adapting to the training." After a pause, Captain Yang looked at the other party's attire and coughed lightly: "But when the training starts, we must dress uniformly. .”

"no problem!"

"Okay, let's go, I'll take you to see the dormitory - it's built according to the standard of Yaoyue."

As Captain Yang led the people away, the entourage in the convoy also began to move down to salute, but was soon stopped by the staff.

After all, this is for training, not for these wealthy princes to come on vacation.

...

After the people were settled, Captain Yang returned to the office and called Director Zhang.

"Brother Zhang, I have received it and made arrangements."

"Well, there's nothing wrong, is there?"

"Not really, but why did you suddenly arrange for such a group of noble sons to come over?" Captain Yang joked, "How much is this ticket?"

"Hahahaha, don't inquire, I don't know, it was stuffed through the diplomatic opening." After a pause, the director said again: "But no matter what the relationship is, you still have to be treated according to the standards of astronauts when you enter the training base. The higher-ups also greeted - I heard that these few are quite capable in the royal family, and one of them is quite famous in the field of quantum physics, not the kind of young master who walks the horse and walks the dog."

"That's fine, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Captain Yang smiled and looked west.

Director Zhang could guess without telling him that the arrival of these people was naturally related to the recent intensified conflicts.

With his background as a soldier, how could he not have a basic sense of smell?

On the world map, Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia are only separated by a narrow Red Sea...

Just, how to get there?

"Aita."

"Hello, Captain."

Although he has retired from the Yaoyue, as the first captain of the Yaoyue, Aita has always called him the captain... This made Captain Yang feel extremely comfortable.

"Is there any news from Zhongdong International?"

"In related news, the international community generally calls for a ceasefire between Ethiopia and Ethiopia and a return to peace."

"The United Nations General Assembly meeting was held, and the United States and many other countries rejected the proposal to send peacekeeping troops."

"As the conflict intensifies, the current situation in Somalia is also in turmoil, and piracy has become more intense. It is reported that many trading ships have been attacked by pirates..."

"The SCO meeting that is currently being held has mentioned a proposal to ensure the safety of long-distance voyages, especially paying attention to the safety of the Gulf of Aden waters..."

...

Provincial payment, brain-computer center.

As the turmoil in East Africa intensified, Ye Ming, who was not very involved in politics, also began to pay attention.

After all, the root cause of the turmoil in East Africa has become a lice on the bald man's head. It is obvious that Europe, the United States and other parties have increased their garrisons in the relevant areas under the pretext of the turbulent situation.

To put it bluntly, I still want to hold in my hands a place that they looked down upon before.

Naturally, the AU and quite a few countries are strongly opposed to this.

But what good is verbal objection?

"Obviously, in addition to the benefits of being promoted this time, there are also expert advice behind it."

Zhou Xiangnan sat in Ye Ming's office, sipping coffee and chatting.

He is different from Ye Ming, he likes Jian Zheng very much, and he also has the nickname of "Chief Zhihu Scientist".

So much so that Ye Ming once joked with him that if he had used these thoughts on scientific research, he would have produced a new type of material that was against the sky.

"Understood, mother, how can a small broken force in the Tirenzhen be armed with all the equipment that breaks the contract? You don't even have to act." Ye Ming scolded his mother.

Zhou Xiangnan coughed immediately, and looked at Ye Ming with burning eyes: "Tell me, has the country taken any action?"

Although he has been paying attention to the situation, he knows that Ye Ming is the real boss with inside information.

"Cough... how do I know?"

After Ye Ming finished speaking, there were footsteps outside the door. After a while, He Mo walked into the office quickly.

Seeing Zhou Xiangnan here, she was stunned for a moment, then blinked: "Professor Zhou doesn't take a lunch break?"

Zhou Xiangnan and others, seeing He Mo's posture, knew that she and Ye Ming had something to talk about, so they coughed and got up immediately: "No lunch break, but it's time to go back and see the children—let's chat."

He Mo smiled and closed the door.

Ye Ming watched her expression gradually become serious, sat upright, and looked at her seriously: "Did something important happen? Need you to say it verbally?"

"It's not a big deal, I'm going on a long business trip tomorrow."

Ye Ming was slightly taken aback, and immediately realized that this trip was really a bit far away.

Moreover, it may be related to some places!

"I just received news from Paocheng that a cargo ship was hijacked, so they asked us to go out to sea and conduct a joint escort operation in the Gulf of Aden."

Ye Ming was stunned: "What escort?"

"you guess!"

Ye Ming: "..."

"Okay." He Mo looked back and raised four fingers.

"004."
