Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology
Vol 2 Chapter 1209: Musk fights!
"What do you mean?" Damon was so angry that he couldn't speak. "Are you planning to let us die here?"
"No, we are trying to figure it out. This is just a reminder to pay attention to your tone of voice and the way you communicate."
The three astronauts immediately fell silent. It was really inappropriate to do this during the live broadcast without communicating with NASA. No matter from which perspective, astronauts are the image of the country and must be responsible for the country.
But the three of them seemed to be very greedy for life and afraid of death. Compared with the astronauts from the Mao Xiong period, they were inferior.
Therefore, it is normal for the top executives of the United States to be angry.
After self-criticism, the three astronauts adjusted their mentality and carefully apologized: "I'm sorry, we were anxious before... Then when can you come over?"
"This does take some time. Look for the research equipment up there, do some research, and leave the rest to us. The rocket is actually ready, it just needs a little debugging time. This is a new model rocket. We were studying it before the launch of the return to the moon project."
"Oh, I see."
It has to be said that the top management of the United States has a very good grasp of people's hearts. When telling lies, they are really strong and soft. The astronauts have no way to distinguish between truth and falsehood. They have no other choice but to believe it.
The real situation is much worse than this. The United States has spent all its resources on this launch. I don’t even know how much money I’ve spent. I’ve long owed it to manufacturers and suppliers, and I’ve also bought a lot of necessary equipment from Europe.
The money must be paid back slowly, or exchanged for resources. Anyway, it cannot be solved all at once.
Even domestic overtime pay has not been paid in full. It is impossible to launch another rocket now. The debt is too much and no one will believe it.
If the United States were not so greedy at the beginning, took things slowly, sent people up for the first time, and didn't think about doing too many things, then there would be two opportunities for launch. It's too late to say anything now.
The trio of hard-working astronauts could only follow the location and slowly find another warehouse. There was some power supply or something on it. In this case, getting more supplies would give them more hope of survival. As for research? If you can do it, do it; if you can't, do it.
When they walked two kilometers to the predetermined location, they found the space capsule lying there quietly.
"Mad! How great would it be if this cabin was also designed with a return function? We can go back directly!"
"Yes! Whoever goes to the moon will get a return capsule? Isn't it just luck?"
"Stop talking, let's see what's inside that we can use!"
After a lot of effort, they opened the hatch and looked at the things inside. The three of them were a little desperate. They were all equipment, more than what was mentioned before. After rummaging for a while, they only found some power supplies.
"What a fool! You didn't even bring us more water! You spent so much money to bring these things up!" Matt cursed again, and then left quickly. The oxygen began to become tense, and he had to go back and put on the space suit quickly. The carbon dioxide in the body is taken out to produce oxygen, and then the urine and feces are collected. Nothing can be wasted. Life is so hard! ….
The top management of the United States is also in a state of distress. It is obvious that they no longer have the ability to get people back. How should this matter be resolved?
"Delay! If you delay for a long time, no one will have much impression! Then they say that the astronaut's operation error led to his death, and we don't even have to make excuses!"
"But what happens before a person dies? You can't just stop broadcasting all the time, right?"
"This is a simple pre-recording, allowing the astronauts to do some experiments, record some processes, and then play them back in batches and time. Then we will exaggerate their heroic character. In this way, the focus will not stop on the authorities, and we will Got face."
"It's indeed a good idea! Then start rendering from now on?"
"Yes! Save a little on the footage of the astronauts' work and research, give them a little video and just do an interview, and give a little bit of information in a day, got it?"
"Understand how."
It was already April 29, and without further ado, the United States began to publicize the daily life of astronauts, and often played heroic movies to guide everyone to respect such people and divert attention from this matter.
Heroism, especially tragic heroism, is the main theme of the United States, and the people just accept it. A hero does not necessarily have to be successful, but he must be spectacular. Astronauts are obviously such a profession. The US government also deliberately broadcast the crashed space shuttle and space accidents of other countries.
"These astronauts who sacrificed their lives for the aerospace industry are all heroes. It is their sacrifice that makes aerospace technology advance so quickly. There are similar heroes in other fields. Let us remember their names and their deeds!"
"We must complete the mission even if we are not afraid of sacrifice. The spirit of the United States is consistent with this!"
"For the future of mankind, sacrifice is inevitable!"
While reporting on these things, they also played footage of three astronauts at work, trumpeting the success of the moon landing, saying that several new substances had been discovered on it, and even solid water!
As soon as these smoke bombs were released, the focus of everyone's discussion was accurately shifted to whether it is possible to immigrate to the moon or even other planets in the future.
As for the astronauts who may have died? The people no longer feel that it is a tragedy. They have been successfully led to a biased thinking perspective.
"When I grow up, I want to win glory for the United States and be an excellent astronaut! Even if I pay for my life, I want to leave my own chapter!"
"What a glorious thing it is to sacrifice for the future of mankind!"
"A hero is still a hero even if he fails. It's better than living a life of inaction!"
Taking this opportunity, many schools in the United States also carried out corresponding promotion of aerospace knowledge. Some astronauts also visited the schools and communicated with the community. The whole thing moved forward very quickly, which shows that the authorities were really prepared.
But Musk doesn’t think so. He thinks tragedy is tragedy, and what’s more, what happened this time was a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster. If this project were not so urgent, the three astronauts would not be unable to come back. People do need to have a spirit of sacrifice, but it is based on voluntariness.
Nasa almost tricked people into going to the moon, which is disgraceful no matter how you look at it. ….
Musk wants to save people. On the one hand, his humanitarian spirit prevents him from watching such an excellent astronaut die. On the other hand, he also wants to develop corresponding technologies to avoid being caught off guard by similar situations in the future.
But everything takes time, and I really can’t do it myself. Originally, Musk did not agree to go to the moon so soon, but the consortium above controlled everything, and he was just a spokesperson in front of the stage.
At this time, Musk deeply hated the big conglomerates at the top of the United States. Although he was not a good person and kept seeds everywhere, he did not lose the bottom line of being a human being. At least those women gave birth to his children voluntarily.
People are so contradictory that when bigger problems arise, they will ignore their own smaller problems.
Musk looked at the messy drawings and felt very irritated. He had rocket technology, but he didn't have space capsule technology. Even if NASA cooperates with him, it is impossible to leave everything to him. He is more like a production staff, and it is his job to reduce the cost of the rocket bit by bit.
"No! There's a way!" Musk suddenly laughed. He had gone astray. He was thinking too narrowly. Why must Americans be the ones who go to rescue people? Aren't the Xia people thinking of ways to land on the moon? If you talk to them, you might be able to save people!
Once this idea occurs, there is no going back.
Musk knows what this incident means and is likely to offend the US authorities, but as long as he keeps it secret, it will look like the Xia people "accidentally" found the Americans and rescued them for humanitarian reasons!
This matter cannot be delayed any longer. In just the past day, some people have begun to say that the United States is unkind and has been promoting the spirit of sacrifice. Then there is a high probability that something happened to the astronauts, otherwise there would be no need to promote such unlucky things at this time. Even if Westerners are not superstitious, they still have to choose the occasion when speaking. Besides, Westerners are more superstitious, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to check in at churches all over the place every week.
On the morning of the 30th, with only one day left before Xia Guo launched the moon landing rocket, Musk contacted Chen Xiao in the name of electric vehicle cooperation.
"Musk contacted me? It's really weird. There is a conflict in our product content. Why did he contact me?" Chen Xiao was a little confused, but he still decided to try to communicate. After all, in his previous life, he still had no impression of this person. It's okay, at least they are engaged in technology, not purely in finance.
After connecting to the video, Musk looked serious and was in a completely enclosed space with an extremely monotonous background.
"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am sitting in my safe house using Changtian Technology's network to talk to you. I hope you can also keep the conversation private." Musk got straight to the point.
Chen Xiao nodded: "It's just me. You should know the security of Changtian Technology's network, otherwise you wouldn't say that you are using my network. What do you want from me? It doesn't look like an electric car." Cooperation."
"It's not true, from my side..." Musk explained the matter clearly in two minutes, and at the same time requested: "I beg you to change your plan for the moon landing and pretend to accidentally save people."
"Huh? This is indeed quite difficult. You gave me too little time, and the moon landing plan was decided a few months ago. The materials and equipment to be brought up were all decided in advance. Suddenly I have to bring three people back. , we have to design a cockpit for six people, do you think this is possible?”….
"I know it's difficult, but there's really no other way. I can't just watch those three astronauts be deceived to death."
Chen Xiao shook his head: "You are really good at causing problems. Not only do you want us to save people, but you even want to be an unsung hero. You don't even admit it publicly. Why would Xia Guo do this?"
Musk was a little speechless, and he also knew how excessive the request was.
"You can make some requests here, and I'll do it if I can..."
"Let's not talk about it for now. If we can't save anyone, what's the point of making more requests? Go back and study it." Chen Xiao died without giving an accurate answer, and Musk was in a state of confusion. I took such a big risk to contact Chen Xiao, and this was the result. Life is really unpredictable.
Chen Xiao, who hung up the communication, began to think about it. This matter is indeed difficult to handle. He was about to launch a rocket before he came out like this. What a mess! Many things have been rehearsed a long time ago, and everything has a process. If you suddenly join such a big thing, no one can make the decision.
So Chen Xiao personally contacted several major leaders of Xia Guo's aerospace department and held a private meeting.
"You want to save people? And three at a time? No! Unless the return capsule is used by the Americans, and then we launch another trip up, the cost is too outrageous!"
"It's not that we don't want to save, but we can't find anyone. Will they provide the frequency of positioning? This is considered confidential. We may not be able to find him."
The people in charge basically disagreed. They all felt that the Americans were bragging and causing trouble. Why did the Xia people have to save others?
Chen Xiao sighed. In fact, he had a plan in mind, so he began to persuade the people in charge.
"Our launch plan will not change. We can go wherever we want, but we have to think about it. Sooner or later we will have to get used to interstellar travel. It would be good to practice rescuing people now."
"Mr. Chen, do you mean to save people?"
"Indeed, we will even bear the corresponding costs. This is a good opportunity for Changtian Technology. It is a good opportunity to practice rescue operations and try out our rescue cabin project."
"But...it's probably too late. The things that went up have been fixed a long time ago. It's a bit inappropriate to add this all of a sudden. What if our people want to use it?"
This is indeed a huge problem. At this time, there are only twelve hours left before the launch. If we don't sort out a clue, we will really be too late. UU reading www. uukanshu.net
After a round of discussion, we really had no idea. Chen Xiao finally proposed to bring an extra space capsule aboard during the next launch, so that we could try out the dual-cabin return experiment. Anyway, we shouldn’t be able to kill people so quickly this time. Saved. The second launch will be a month later, and there is nothing wrong with starting to plan now.
Chen Xiao looked at the face of the head of Xia Guo's aerospace department and felt unhappy. It seemed that he really had to have his own rocket, otherwise he would have to rely on others for everything. And it does take a long time to tinker with our own rockets.
In the end, based on the bottom line of human ethics, Xia's aerospace department decided to provide living supplies first, and then find a way to rescue the American astronauts.
Chen Xiao informed Musk of this decision, and Musk suddenly felt better. At least the Xia people were really thinking of a solution.
"But we will announce the rescue process after we come back, and your reasons will not be mentioned. This matter cannot be done quietly, because the return of three astronauts is not a small matter."
"It'll be fine if the person is rescued. We'll pay for it." 39314889.
