The Lunar Levitation Project is definitely an unexpected surprise. In fact, it does have a continuing relationship with the Nantianmen Project, but as Lin Yongming stated, this is indeed a very interesting and bold idea.

No wonder he called himself over to demonstrate it himself. In a sense, he was like a child who discovered an interesting new toy and couldn't wait to share it with Chen Nian.

And his guess was absolutely correct, Chen Nian really liked this kind of sharing.

So is there any possibility of this plan being implemented?

Lin Yongming asked.

Of course!

Chen Nian answered without hesitation.

There is no place more suitable for magnetic levitation experiments than the moon. We don't even need to use metallic hydrogen materials, but can use cheaper low-temperature superconducting materials.

This gives us room to reduce costs and also provides the conditions for large-scale construction.

It's really great. It's exciting to think about the future.

Chen Nian did not try to hide his excitement at all.

What does a large-scale lunar suspension system mean?

As Chen Nian said at the beginning, this is the foundation of the entire lunar industry.

When humans are able to achieve rapid maneuvers and rapid transportation on the moon, things that were originally impossible to do suddenly become no problem.

By then, crossing the moon may no longer require chemical rockets or refrigerant engines, but can be accomplished simply by adjusting the direction of the magnetic field!

This is a huge system project and a technological direction with absolutely broad prospects.

If one day, this technology matures, or humans make a breakthrough in the field of theoretical physics, then it will not be a big problem to copy this system to the earth.

So, are we going to start a new project while the Nantianmen project is proceeding normally?

Chen Guo on the side asked slightly worriedly.

Of the two people in front of me, one didn’t have much of an idea of ​​budgeting at all, and only knew how to crazily ask for money as a project director;

The other one cares about the budget, but often seems a little too aggressive.

If they were really indifferent, they would really dare to take the project as a final decision.

Of course not.

Chen Nian and Lin Yongming said in unison.

This made Chen Guo a little confused - just now, the two of them looked overjoyed, but now they suddenly calmed down?

This is not a short-term project.

Chen Nian said.

Theoretically, this project is the foundation for the interstellar era. Its significance is that it can turn the moon into an outpost for humans to step into the universe and deep space.

And it is obvious that in the next few decades, we will not have the need for large-scale space exploration for the time being.

So, what we are discussing now is actually a question of macro vision.

“We don’t need to do it right away, but we can start preparing for it now.”

Including what you said, the question of whether to carry out project operations - of course it is necessary, but it does not need to exist in the form of a new project, it can just be merged into the Moon Palace project.

After all, our moon palace can't just be a small ground base. It has to be a real moon palace.

Understood.

Chen Guo breathed a sigh of relief.

Although China is now considered to be rich and wealthy on various levels, that is limited to the ground and the earth.

The idea of ​​space exploration and large-scale extraterrestrial bases is always too advanced and cannot be supported by funds and resources.

So what do we do next? I mean, what does Starfire need to do about this project?

he asked.

This question stopped Chen Nian.

It seems like there’s nothing special that needs to be done in a short period of time?

Technically, it can completely follow the footsteps of the Moon Palace Project and the Nantianmen Project. In terms of resources, this project actually does not require any special resources that must be prepared in advance.

Even he himself actually had nothing to do.

Because this is ultimately a technology collection rather than a single technology, it does not make much sense to analyze it through the system and speed up research and development.

Then put it aside for now.——

etc.

Chen Nian suddenly thought of something, and then a smile appeared on his face.

He opened his mouth and said:

Technically, we don't need to do anything in advance.

But in terms of public opinion preparation, we should really take action.

Public opinion preparation? So fast?

Chen Guo asked doubtfully.

Generally speaking, the target of public opinion is of course contemporary people, because only the public opinion of contemporary people will affect contemporary decision-making.

But Chen Nian just said that this is a project that may not be launched until fifty years later. So what is the point of preparing for public opinion now?

Seemingly seeing through Chen Guo's doubts, Chen Nian said:

We are not trying to prepare public opinion for this project, but we are trying to prepare for the future of humanity.

To put it bluntly, it's time for us to throw out some grander narratives to change people's perceptions and maintain the unity of the 'human' species.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Guo immediately understood what he meant.

You're saying we need to set bigger long-term goals?

That's right.

Chen Nian nodded and continued:

In fact, we can also see that in the past few decades, mankind has never had a grand and unified common goal.

There may be some within each country and each nation. For example, our goal is to 'unify the people of the world' and 'plant red flags all over the world,' while the British's goal is to 'rebuild the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets.'

“But the reality is that these goals are not universal and cannot unite everyone.”

“Leaving aside the essential issues of productivity and generated data, differences in goals are also one of the reasons for the continued division of humankind. This is a question of ‘construction methods’ on the foundation.”

We have used nuclear fusion and superconducting technologies to solve the foundation difficulties, so now, it is time to start optimizing our construction methods.

It is difficult to apply what we believe in to the whole world, so it is better to start from a higher place and carry out cultural penetration from top to bottom.

No problem, I'll make arrangements.

Chen Guo said decisively.

Looking at Chen Nian's gradually mature face, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

More than ten years ago, when I first met him, he was still a young boy who had just entered college.

Now, I have begun to think about issues from the perspective of all mankind and can really exert influence.

If you give him some more time, how far can he go?

Chen Guo suddenly hoped that she could live longer and see Chen Nian's final achievements with her own eyes.

Then I cooperated with Mr. Lin on this point - by the way, I brought Li Xiang in. He is more professional when it comes to public opinion.

Of course, but I have a suggestion.

What advice?

Chen Guo asked curiously.

Chen Nian looked solemn and said solemnly:

Blow it louder!

Anyway, we can all make it happen.

What are you talking about? China wants to build a lunar ship port? What technology will it use to build it?

At Yellowstone Farm, or the headquarters of the New North American Alliance, Keith looked at Weiss in surprise and asked in disbelief.

Weiss on the opposite side also looked shocked. He seemed not to know how to answer his brother's question.

After all, this news is too advanced, too sci-fi, and too not of this era.

While the United States where they live is still fighting for a small profit on the ground, and even Washington and the military are involved in the struggle between capitals, the Chinese people's vision has actually transcended this small little profit. Earth, they arrived at their grand interstellar expedition plan.

The lunar ship port is indeed a romantic plan.

I seem to have only seen this concept in those Hollywood science fiction movies when I was a child?

Now, it seems that this concept may soon become a reality.

I have to say that it is indeed a country that can create miracles.

After hesitating for a long time, Weiss answered:

Yes, according to the current public news, it seems that they are indeed planning to build a very large port on the moon that can accommodate giant spacecrafts to park and land.

This port time is based on electromagnetic and superconducting technology - well, I don't understand these things at all. If you really want to know, you might as well read their news yourself.

All I can say is, it's amazing.

Wes nodded thoughtfully at his words.

But then he asked again:

“I don’t have to watch the news to imagine how amazing it is – but the question is, what does this have to do with us?”

Looking at his confused expression, Weiss shook his head slightly.

Then, he spoke:

“It’s not just related to us, it should be said, it’s very related.”

You should go online more and see people's reactions to this matter.

It is no exaggeration to say that based on the current atmosphere, many people already regard China as the savior of the world and a prophet who can lead the future direction of mankind.

“The support they have received has never been stronger, and their profile has never been higher.”

Even some of the once staunch anti-China groups I know have switched sides and are about to fall into their arms.

Case, do you know what this means?

Case frowned, thinking carefully about the meaning of Weiss's words.

But it was obvious that he was really not good at this. No matter how hard he tried, he could only understand the surface meaning, but could not see clearly what was hidden behind it.

So, he said simply:

I don't understand—just tell me.

Weiss sighed and replied:

This means that China really intends to lead mankind.

They may not want to be the masters of the world, but they definitely want to be the pioneers of the world.

Hmm, amazing ambition, and then what?

Case continued.

Then? Well let me finish it all at once.

You have to think about it in the context of our situation, and right now, our biggest enemy is the federal government.

Obviously, the federal government once wanted to do the same thing as the Chinese, but they failed.

So now, what will happen when the Chinese reveal their ambition?

Think about it for yourself! What would you do if someone were to do something you didn't do?

.Maybe I'll try to stop him.

That's right!

Weiss breathed a sigh of relief, his brother was just a little slow, not stupid.

So here's the problem. The other side wants to lead humanity, and the Federation wants to stop them, so they will definitely get into a fight.

And this means that the tacit understanding and 'stalemate' between the two parties in the past few years is likely to be broken.

I get it, this is our chance.

Case said immediately.

Yes, this is our chance - this is the chance you've been waiting for.

I can tell you that the war you want is about to begin.

From today, from this moment on, we will turn from conservative to radical.

We are officially going to war.

Weiss' tone was extremely heavy, but within the heaviness, there was also a decisive and inspiring ambition.

They're really going to start doing big things.

It is no longer a small fight based on the so-called legal framework, but a real big event that can make this country develop in the direction it expects!

“Are we going to throw away our legal status first?”

Keith asked in a deep voice.

No, that's not necessary.

When we start doing those things, there will be no need for us to give up. Someone will naturally help us take off the legal cloak.

At the end of the day, we just have to go and do it.

clear.

Case nodded slightly, and then continued to ask:

So, what do we do first?

Sever ties with other defense and security companies and strengthen cooperation with LMS.

Why?!

Case's eyes widened.

LMS is a security and defense company owned by Lockheed Martin. I think we should kick them away first.

You are wrong.

Weiss said without mercy:

Your knowledge on these matters is almost a blank slate. I can tell you that Lockheed Martin is breaking up, and even if it doesn't break up, LMS cannot simply be considered a part of Lockheed Martin.

In fact, it has already been separated from Lockheed Martin and out of federal control.

Then who was it? I understand.

Case finally came to his senses.

So, this is why they helped us fight against Tyson in the first place. The so-called interests are just a cover.

Profits are certainly not a cover, but what they are pursuing is more than just profits.

Okay, now go out and talk to the people in LMS.

Don't go to their captain, go to the drone pilot. He's the real decision-maker.

clear!

Case turned and walked out of the house, and when he opened the door, he was surprised to find that the drone pilot was already standing at the door waiting for him quietly.
