Fallen Star: Second Earth

After six months of improvements, the type of engine was finally determined, and it was decided to use the electromagnetic drive engine as the main one, supplemented by dark matter thrusters.

Yesterday, the institute released its model, which attracted many people to invest.

Li Qingfeng also received a message from Zhao Ming yesterday. Zhao Ming expressed his congratulations to him and told him that he would give him a mysterious gift. But when Li Qingfeng opened the gift he received, there was only a funny smiling headband. Li Qingfeng was really speechless after seeing it.

At this time, Li Qingfeng had just arrived at the headquarters of the Planet Explorers Alliance. There are important things that need to be said in this meeting introduction, and a confidentiality mechanism is implemented to not allow virtual networks to listen online. So the Huaxia Institute of Physics sent Li Qingfeng to attend the meeting.

The headquarters of the Planet Explorers Alliance is located on the ground. The entire building complex is a semi-encircled structure. In the center of the building complex is the central building, which is more than 600 meters high. It gives people a visual impact of overlooking the world.

A man walked up and said to Li Qingfeng: "Hello, I am the receptionist here. How can I help you?"

Li Qingfeng replied: "I'm here for a meeting. This is my invitation letter." Li Qingfeng gave the gilded envelope to the man.

After checking it, the man said respectfully: "Dear guests, the conference hall is on the top floor. You can get up there by riding the hover car." The man pointed to the hover car in front of Li Qingfeng's left where many people were already sitting on it.

Li Qingfeng also sat on it. The interior of this car was very retro. There were still newspapers placed on the left side of each seat. Although newspapers are already an ancient product, there are several newspaper companies that are still keeping pace with the times. The traditional reading of newspapers is retained. But the price has also increased a lot, mainly for large companies.

Li Qingfeng looked through the newspaper and saw that the date was today. The content covers a wide range of topics, some are about who has succeeded in starting a business, and some are about describing the problems that exist at the current stage.

At this moment, someone suddenly tapped Li Qingfeng on the shoulder. Li Qingfeng looked to see who was tapping him.

"I really didn't expect to meet you here, Shen Chuqiao." Li Qingfeng looked at him with excitement. This person was his dormitory manager at the university. However, they ended up going their separate ways when he took the postgraduate entrance examination. However, he still chatted with him often after studying for postgraduate school. But in graduate school, there was little time to chat, let alone meet.

Shen Chuqiao also sighed and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you are doing well at the Huaxia Institute of Physics. I heard that you took the lead in developing the new thruster recently."

"Just like that, you've been drifting back and forth since graduation. Which company did you work for recently?"

"I work here. The salary here is quite high. And the employees are treated very well." Shen Chuqiao said with a smile.

At this time, the maglev car slowly lifted off and flew to the top.

Shen Chuqiao said: "You are not young anymore. I am already married and I haven't seen any movement from you. Why do you really plan to be a monk for the rest of your life?"

Li Qingfeng sighed and said: "You also know that I am still a long way from my dream. How can I care about the love of my children? Besides, I spend most of my time at work every day and have no time at all. To take care of others, I am different from you. You feel that you live and work in peace and contentment, work honestly every day, and get off work when it is time. But I need to use all my strength to make sure that my hard work is not in vain."

Shen Chuqiao looked at him sympathetically and patted him again. Said: "Don't tire yourself out. Sometimes it may be better to relax than to be tense all the time."

"Ah."

The maglev car slowly stopped. Everyone entered the conference room on the top floor one after another. A row of people were already sitting in front of the conference room.

After about 30 minutes, the meeting began.

"I am Liao Fengtao, chief scientist of Planet Explorer Alliance. You may still not know why we invited you to participate in this private meeting. Just yesterday, the dark matter unmanned exploration spacecraft we launched 10 years ago transmitted back a large amount of information. , an Earth-like planet was discovered 5.4 light-years away from the Earth, and the galaxy where the planet is located has a star larger than the sun. We call it 'Chiwu', and the Earth-like planet is called ' Second Earth'."

Someone raised their hand and asked: "Since we found such important data, why can't it be published publicly?"

Liao Fengtao stared at the man and said slowly: "Because of people's hearts, the world is too peaceful now. Even if we hand this data to the United Nations, they will not give us too much funding, but this will arouse a lot of ambitious people." We have already received news that some companies have built many warships in private. The world has entered an unstable period, so in order to delay the outbreak of unrest, we have no choice but to take this private meeting. I hope everyone will understand.”

Liao Fengtao showed the Earth-like planet and star through 3D virtual images. There are many differences between that planet and the former Earth. Blue and green colors basically occupy the same area. Many people are discussing this topic in whispers.
