I have a space station

10 PM.

The rooftop of an abandoned building.

"Mr. Kamata, Mr. Ei!"

"Mayor Que, I knew I wasn't wrong about you. Your abilities are truly outstanding. You've opened up the line from Andong to Fengtian in just two short days," Kamata Sayoko said with a satisfied smile.

"It's all thanks to the advanced weapons provided by Mr. Kamata, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to manage it," Que Xin replied with a bow.

"Rest for a few days. I hope you can use this time to gather tens of thousands more soldiers from Pingxi. I will arrange the weapons for you," Kamata Sayoko continued, ignoring his flattery.

"Yes!" Que Xin responded.

… …

September 5, 2055 AD.

9 AM.

Binjiang City Underground Base.

"Commander, the new core module has been completed," Xiao Lin reported as Dongfang Chen arrived at the office.

"Open the space station panel," Dongfang Chen said.

"Yes, Commander. The space station panel is open."

"So big?" Dongfang Chen was surprised, looking at the core module in the screen, which was even larger than the material transfer hall.

The new core module utilized all the worker bee robots and took a full 21 days to build.

"Yes, Commander. The Level 5 core module will release data to Level 2, and this data requires more space to accommodate it. May I ask, Commander, whether to begin releasing the data now?" Xiao Lin asked.

The process of releasing data is similar to decompressing a compressed file, but the work involved in this release process is much more extensive.

This data is mainly divided into two categories: one is file data, and the other is executable programs.

The volume of file data is large, but it does not need to occupy too much location space. Moreover, this file data can be directly called by the system without being released. The calling process is very similar to visiting a library.

First, there is an index for these materials. When the system needs certain materials, it will search according to the index. When the corresponding materials are found, they will be decompressed, and after being viewed, they will be destroyed.

The process of decompression is like borrowing a book, and the process of destruction is like returning a book.

Why must it be destroyed? Because if it is not destroyed, as the number of views increases, a lot of junk files will be generated, occupying system space.

Of course, for some frequently called data, the system will also mark it and establish a cache area. Within a certain period of time, these files can be reused without being immediately destroyed.

The major consumer of location space is actually executable programs.

As the space station continues to expand and the functional modules continue to increase, each module and each function needs a control program to manage it. On the one hand, different functions require different control terminals, and on the other hand, each control terminal requires more and more computing power. Whether it is adding control terminals or increasing computing power, a larger core module is needed.

When the space station was first upgraded to Level 5, the computing power of the core module had already used nearly 80%. If the space station's functions are further expanded, the original core module will not be able to provide more control terminals and computing power, so a new core module needs to be built.

Moreover, this core module is being prepared for building a real space station.

So, there is a good reason for its size.

The process of releasing data next is more cumbersome.

The space station will copy the data from the original core module to the new core module, and only after the copy is complete will it begin to release the control program.

"How long does it take to release the data?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"A conservative estimate is 24 hours," Xiao Lin replied.

"Okay, let's begin!" Dongfang Chen said.

"Yes, Commander."

The process of releasing data will not cause the space station's functions to be interrupted, so there is no problem starting at any time.

"The worker bee robots are all idle now, let's continue to upgrade the other modules," Dongfang Chen said.

"Yes, Commander."

After arranging the space station upgrade, Dongfang Chen contacted Niu Xingwang.

Next, it's time to expand the scale of the Chamber of Commerce branch.

Soon, Niu Xingwang arrived.

"Brother Niu, how are the arrangements for the Supervisory Group?" Dongfang Chen asked after Niu Xingwang came in.

"Mr. Dongfang, the arrangements for the Supervisory Group are complete. Some of them stayed at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, and some went to various resettlement centers," Niu Xingwang replied.

"It seems the council plans to fully monitor the operation of the Chamber of Commerce," Dongfang Chen said with a smile.

"Who says it isn't? These grandsons, one by one, are looking down their noses, asking this and that. The people below are complaining every day. When will this end!" Niu Xingwang said with a worried face.

"Has this situation been reported to Councilor Jing?" Dongfang Chen frowned.

"It has been reported, but this Jing Cheng is just a mediator, just making a few superficial criticisms to do face-saving work, and can't solve the actual problem at all," Niu Xingwang said with a wry smile.

"We can't control how the Supervisory Group operates, so let everyone be patient for now. But remember to do the superficial work well, and don't let people find a handle."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention to this," Niu Xingwang nodded.

"Yeah. I asked you to come here today because I wanted to discuss with you about expanding the Chamber of Commerce branch," Dongfang Chen said.
