Osborne Megacorp

"Osborne Aerospace successfully launched a super spacecraft with a carrying capacity of more than 100 tons in low-Earth orbit!"

Although the space race is no longer popular today, this does not mean that no one pays attention to this industry.

On the contrary, its development has always attracted the attention of ordinary people. After all, it was once a highly patriotic cause.

The yearning for the sky has always been one of human pursuits. Looking towards the sky, there are countless treasures there.

As soon as the news came out, the Internet exploded. Not only that, Osborne also posted a recruitment advertisement for space operators called "deep space engineers."

As we all know, astronaut training is very complex and lengthy. The training content includes a series of complicated courses such as basic aerospace science and knowledge learning, physical fitness and psychological training, operational skills training, etc., which usually takes several years.

But Harry can't wait that long. Besides, Osborn's spaceship can be said to be very safe and the technology is very mature. The physical part can be taken care of with aviation armor. As for the knowledge learning part, he doesn't need a complete master who knows everything. To be an astronaut, you only need to have a high IQ.

This program aims to train three types of people:

The first type is a captain who has detailed aerospace knowledge, excellent psychological quality, and can command ship staff to complete work tasks.

The second type is operators who are proficient in certain space operations, such as asteroid mining or space construction. They do not need to have much of a big-picture perspective, but they need to be passionate about the job.

The third type is those who engage in research.

Harry plans to gather 20 teams by the end of the year, each with 5 people, for a total of 100 deep space engineers.

The fight against aliens will begin next year. After the fight against aliens, the world's economy will inevitably enter a period of downturn, and the control of global organizations such as S.H.I.E.L.D. will gradually increase.

The best way to get around them is to fly into the sky.

The rewards Osborne promised were also very impressive. In short, under the dual temptation of money and ideals, signing up to become a deep space engineer became a trend for a while.

"Did you report it?"

"I signed up, what about you?"

Conversations like this are gradually happening around the world, and there are so many talented people to choose from.

After screening, a total of 500 people passed the preliminary election. Standing in front of the phalanx of these 500 people, Harry saw a lot of guys who were as calm as dead water through his "link" vision.

Then Harry talked and asked the remaining people one by one, and eliminated another group of people.

After excluding these agents or commercial spies from unknown places, only 196 people are left who meet the criteria.

Good guy, just get rid of three-fifths of the people.

Harry was also a little helpless about this. Who made this world have so many agents?

In short, the first phase of the Deep Space Engineer Project was finally successfully launched. Soon, Osborne will have 20 engineering ships that can independently complete space operations.

Sitting on the chair in the office, Harry counted the companies under the Osborne Group.

The first is the original Osborne Biotechnology, whose apparent business includes neural implants, high-tech prosthetics, artificial organs, medical services and various pharmaceuticals.

Osborne Energy Technologies, which maintains the power grid and fusion power plants, as well as produces a variety of batteries.

Osborne Military Industries mainly sells various types of powered armor and powered exoskeletons.

Grady Fluor Company is mainly responsible for ctOS. Although Harry has tried his best to remove the obstacles to the full implementation of ctOS, it is obvious that the American people who are born to love freedom still feel that privacy is sacred and inviolable, and there is still a lot of opposition.

Osborne Aerospace Technologies is responsible for the development of the sky domain.

These companies have gradually spread out like a network and are thriving.

I just don’t know when this net will be able to completely cover all areas of human economic activity.

Speaking of this, ctOS has recently had new opponents, and these objections are always heard. Although Harry has tried his best to make citizens aware of its benefits, it is obvious that these Americans still think that this is a matter of course. of.

While Harry was thinking, Hurley called the company's internal phone number.

"Harry, you may need to prepare. People from the NSA and FBI are coming to your door."

Harry touched his chin and had several guesses in his mind.

"Hello, Mr. Osborne, I am Carson Wolfe, and here is my ID."

"Christopher Avery."

One of the two is from the NSA and is the NSA Special Agent in Charge in New York, and the other is from the FBI and is also a senior official.

"Osborne welcomes you both. I wonder what the NSA and FBI are doing here?"

The two looked at each other, and finally Wolff spoke first.

“With the launch of ctOS and urban efficiency reaching an all-time high in the past few months, Osborne has no doubt that it is one of the greatest technology companies working today.”

"Mr. Wolf, thank you very much. It is the NSA and FBI that have made the United States the safest country in the world. Osborne is just a small technology company."

Harry also spoke nonsense. He probably understood what these two national security agencies were looking for him to do.

Hearing this, Watson and Avery looked at each other and felt that Osborne didn't seem to be that difficult to speak.

"I wonder what Mr. Osborne thinks of the Patriot Act?" Watson said.

The Patriot Act is a bill passed by Congress and signed by the president after 911/[-], which expanded the powers of U.S. law enforcement agencies, in which the NSA played a central role.

However, while the United States is using a series of laws to prevent KBism, many provisions in these bills have vague interpretations of citizens' privacy rights, which has triggered questions and condemnations from civil society groups.

The biggest privacy scandal that was revealed after this was the famous Prism scandal.

At this moment, the public can only be called suspicious and questioning, but because the precedent of the KB attack is there, everyone only has some opinions at most, and the opposition is limited to the Internet.

And Harry also remembered this matter. Living in the world of superheroes, he had almost forgotten these things. He also said that these Americans seemed not as difficult to deal with as he remembered - they didn't even take to the streets.

At this moment, he roughly guessed why they came to him.

This is to invite myself to join the Prism Project.

"...A bill worthy of its name, which can filter out the patriots among us." Harry thought for a moment and replied.

Isn't that right? Anyone who doesn't accept it is not patriotic.

And those who have accepted it... can also screen out whether you are patriotic or not.

Hearing Harry's answer, Watson smiled, Avery laughed, and Harry laughed too.

The three of them laughed together, but what Harry was laughing at was not the same thing as what they were laughing at.
