Guide to Galactic Dominance

The next day, Bai Zhongqi returned to Ruyi City in a Bibo-type spaceship. Country C also held a special farewell event. It was nothing special, so I kept it secret.

It is worth mentioning that behind the spacecraft that Bai Zhongqi left this time, there was also a rail transit boat, which was the same type that the thirty-person visiting group took previously. This traffic boat is filled with personnel from country C. They will go to Ruyi City to conduct inspections and negotiations.

Country C’s negotiations to join the UN are complicated and there are many clues. It will be divided into several negotiation steps and locations. Anting, who was appointed by Bai Zhongqi as the Ambassador of the United Empire to Country C, is actually a bionic man who stayed in the imperial capital to preside over the negotiations on joining the Union here, and at the same time coordinated the Embassy of the United Empire. completion and use.

Xiang Fei followed the negotiation delegation, boarded the rail transit boat, and headed to Ruyi City to conduct negotiations there. Traveling with him was the young physicist Ye Qing, a student of Academician Ding.

The entire delegation is larger than the last global delegation, with as many as 160 people. The members of these inspection groups are also very complex, coming from different departments and fields, and some are even recruited to use public funds for interstellar travel. Of course, they are still nominally assistants who do logistics and coordination for the inspection groups.

Xiang Fei had a hard time eating at Bai Zhongqi's place yesterday, and now he is also out of temper. He is actually one of the "publicly funded interstellar travel" personnel mentioned just now, but his task is still very arduous. The first one is to negotiate the introduction of iridium technology to control haze.

"Secretary Xiang, Secretary Xiang?" Ye Qing called out several times. Xiang Fei was completely unaware, but he still touched his arm before Xiang Fei reacted.

"Ah, Dr. Ye." Xiang Fei said sheepishly, "I was distracted. I'm sorry."

Ye Qing smiled and said: "My dear, you are also very powerful. Everyone is marveling at the various features of this spaceship. You actually get distracted thinking about things here. You are really worried about the country and the people."

Xiang Fei said ashamedly: "The mission on our shoulders is heavy, there is nothing we can do."

Ye Qing asked curiously: "Is it about haze control?"

Ye Qing also had contact with the office from outside the world, so he naturally knew a lot of things.

There was no need for Xiang Fei to hide it from him, he nodded and said: "Yes, although it is an issue of haze control on the surface, it is part of the entire negotiation to join the federation. Although I don't know whether it was the plan of their head of state Bai Zhongqi or this head of state. They have their own brains behind them to make suggestions, but obviously in terms of strategy, the Iridium people are also very sophisticated and know how to use the earth's methods to operate."

Ye Qing was not surprised and said: "After all, they speak the same language as us and have strong cultural similarities. Our country has been focusing on strategy since ancient times. There is no reason why they would not."

Xiang Fei said: "Yes, the technology of the Iridium people is great, and their strategies are not bad. But this also makes us feel more accepting. After all, we are all on the same path. They can make moves, and we can also take them."

Ye Qing asked: "Then what did the head of the empire do?"

Xiang Fei reluctantly narrated for Ye Qing: "He said yesterday that after returning to Ruyi City, he would collect the haze removal equipment in the capital for the past two days. According to the weather in the past two days, our experts estimate that as soon as he leaves, , the air pollution index will break 200 again within three days, and we will face great pressure from public opinion by then. The series of anti-haze plans launched by Iridium are basically linked to joining the UN, but they provide a transition A comprehensive plan to provide an emission purification system, which can greatly avoid excessive inhalable particulate matter produced by industrial emissions. In addition, he temporarily left six large haze-removing spacecrafts in the Imperial Capital. Although the effect is not as immediate as before, it can generally The air quality remains at an excellent level. Iridium will charge money for this cooperation plan.”

Ye Qing was even more curious and asked: "What do they want the money for? They shouldn't be able to use it."

Xiang Fei said: "I have to say that Iridium people are very thoughtful. Iridium has no plans to purchase some of our products for the time being, but that doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Moreover, this time there is an additional clause bundled in the haze removal plan. , we agreed to dispatch service labor to Iridium, and obviously to hire people from our country, they need to use RMB. In addition, maintaining the normal operation of the embassy in the imperial capital obviously also requires RMB, but they use US dollars in exchange. We have received a sum of money, which is the reparations we received from the Americans.”

Xiang Fei continued: "What's even more amazing is that the Iridium Embassy also accepted an interview with the media that night, exposing the huge cost of their haze removal methods, which earned them a lot of favor. Finally, he said that he looks forward to further working with us on haze removal. cooperation in haze and environmental governance. This is tantamount to shifting the pressure to us again. If there is no substantial results, people will inevitably question why there is no progress in cooperation to control haze. Even if we say that Iridium satellites are used by the United Nations If you come to coerce us, it will not have any effect. Everyone will care about matters that are closely related to themselves."

Ye Qing asked again: "Then what price is offered by Iridium Star?"

Xiang Fei looked a little weird and said: "In fact, the increase is not too high. The total price of the haze control contract is 15 billion RMB, including the current cost of leasing a large haze removal spacecraft. We will produce tens of thousands of emission purification systems and send personnel to assist us with installation. There are also some other scattered supporting measures. The additional clause is to open the export of service labor to Iridium."

Ye Qing nodded in agreement: "It is indeed not high. The country currently invests 100 billion in haze control every year. The Imperial City alone spent 36 billion in three years. If 15 billion can solve the problem, and turn it around The cost of labor export will also be returned to the hands of our people. This business can be said to only make profits but not lose money."

Of course Xiang Fei knows this, but when it comes to politics and negotiations, he always wants to get more whenever he can. He said: "Actually, there are two considerations. On the one hand, our intention is to join the Union, so after joining the Union, can this 15 billion be saved? On the other hand, we have a relationship with Iridium At this time, more contact is still the main focus. If the labor services are opened so soon, and to what extent, the impact on the domestic job market and the overall economy still needs to be investigated."

Ye Qing chuckled and said: "Research? When the results of the survey are available, the Internet will probably be overwhelmed. We don't have complete information at all. What will happen to what the Iridium people give us will change in the end. Now we rely on a group of scholars Calculation after calculation, to put it crudely, it is useless. It will be different by then. What we will face is a new era, and the way and appearance of our understanding of the world will also be completely new. It is not the case now When you look forward and backward, you should enlarge your mind a little so that you won’t be unable to hold on to anything you see.”

Xiang Fei heard Ye Qing's remarks and felt that they made sense. After all, there is not much difference between procrastinating and not procrastinating these things. Now that the Iridium people have appeared in front of the world, the only thing left is to move forward.
