Technology Bigshot

"Of course I know." Charles said with a smile: "So this time I brought enough sincerity."

"Oh? I would like to hear more about it." Ren Hong looked at the other party with a fluke interest. He knew that the meat show was over.

"Presumably, sir, you already know the truth about the Orion crash. If you don't believe me, we have more information, but" Charles said without any concealment.

"I believe it, of course I believe it!" Ren Hong interjected midway, "Because this is the real purpose of our trip to Mars."

"What?" Charles looked at him in shock, stunned for a moment.

Ren Hong smiled and said: "At this point, there is nothing to hide between you and me. In fact, we have already noticed the evidence of large-scale creatures on Mars, which also prompted us to spend a lot of money to chase that one. A big reason for planets.”

Ren Hong said without blushing and heartbeat, in fact, if there were no accidents and released some cryptic content, no one would know that there are large indigenous creatures on Mars. In order to conceal their real purpose of going to Mars, Ren Hong simply resorted to tricks. He called up a screen, which showed a clear picture taken by a satellite. Charles looked at the content in the picture in shock and didn't know what to say for a while. It was a half-skeleton buried on the ground.

Of course, this picture was synthesized by special means. It is impossible to distinguish the real from the fake with the naked eye. It needs professional equipment to verify it. However, Charles will never have the opportunity to check the authenticity of the picture, Ren Hong continued. : "It has long been proven that there is water in the soil of Mars, and we have discovered this kind of organisms, so we have long inferred that the subsurface of Mars is likely to be another world, a world of life, and we discovered this kind of organisms by accident The relics let us confirm this point even more, this time you can basically confirm this conclusion after being attacked by Martian creatures."

"We have invested sky-high prices in the hope that we can take the lead in the future. Aiming at the development of Mars, we have even formulated a plan to emigrate to Mars in our twin projects." Ren Hong said indifferently, no It's like trying to hide something. Charles, who was sitting opposite him, was startled. He was shocked that the other party already knew that there were creatures on Mars, and even believed that there was a world under the surface of Mars that could be inhabited by life? Has China included planetary immigration in its charter? Has gone this far than others?

But why is he telling me this information? This is the biggest doubt in Charles' mind.

Immigrate to Mars? Ren Hong didn't think about it at all, and China didn't think about it at all. Who would want to go to that kind of place where the birds don't shit? It's just that Ren Hong put a smoke bomb on Charles to disguise the real motive. At present, Matrix Technology is flexing its muscles on Mars and the discovery of Martian creatures is reasonable. Ren Hong seems to have seen the doubts of this Yankee. He smiled and said:

"Mr. Charles, to be honest, international law includes any region of the solar system in the scope of the international high seas, but the extraterrestrial world belongs to the game world of the real strong, and the player countries that can join this game and dominate the rules of the game are all in the world. There are less than five worlds, and it is a coincidence that the array you and I are in happens to be in one of them, and you and I happen to be the only ones in the world who have discovered the biggest secret of Mars, a new continent world that is close at hand."

"The earth is too crowded, the Antarctic is too small, the universe is our goal, of course I believe this is also the goal of the United States,

The goal of the strong, the resources of the solar system are inexhaustible and inexhaustible, but few countries are really capable of obtaining them. "

"Mars" Ren Hong had an obsessed look, and his acting skills were brought to the extreme. The planetary image of Mars was projected between the two of them using mixed reality technology. After a while, the surface of Mars suddenly changed, and the new Mount Olympus was located The surface of one hemisphere is surrounded by the Stars and Stripes of the United States, while the other half is surrounded by a bright red flag, and the Martian equator is the dividing line.

Seeing this scene, Charles' heart was filled with turmoil. Ren Hong didn't speak, but just looked at him with a big smile, but Charles knew what he wanted to express, and it was because he was so clear that he was horrified. The two flags all showed that The other party wants to carve up Mars.

"Is this what you mean?" Charles said in surprise. At this moment, the development of the matter has completely exceeded expectations.

"Is this important?" Ren Hong asked back: "Mr. Charles, the era of great spaceflight has begun. This is an era that is more magnificent than the era of great navigation. This is an era that is completely different than ever before. Today, there are only two player nations that can ride the wind and waves in this era, and I am very satisfied with this situation."

"So, the secret of Mars should not be discovered by a third party." Ren Hong said, pointing his hands at the projected image of Mars between the two of them, and said, "Look, the two flags are already completely occupied, and there is no third party." There's a seat for the flag, isn't it?"

At this moment, Charles's mind was completely confused, but Ren Hong said with a smile: "We are all players who have already entered the field. No matter what, both sides have to admit each other's actual status and unchangeable facts, but the third The emergence of a space power is not in our interests, but fortunately it has not appeared now, are you right, Mr. Charles."

Charles, who was a little nervous, nodded subconsciously. This kind of topic has gone far beyond the scope of his purpose for coming this time. Charles doesn't know if this is the meaning of the country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but no matter what, the things here It must be reported to the capital.

Ren Hong went on to say: "We compete with each other, but competition is not an eternal theme. The third party is always annoying, so cooperation is also an important part, for the common benefit." The projected Mars said, "Perfect allocation!" Then he looked at Charles and said, "Now is the time for cooperation."

The eyes of the two sides converged on the same focus again. Ren Hong's eyes sparkled, and he said leisurely: "This time we have enough supplies. Not only can we rescue Duncan Jones and send people to Pezos Heights to rescue those who may survive. Scovo Alderaan astronauts, we can even help you rebuild your outpost base in Pezos Heights, we can even help you send a new batch of astronauts to Mars as fast as we can, including the required Supplies, in other words, we can let your Noah 2 set off ahead of schedule."

"What did you say?" Charles couldn't hide his shock when he heard these words. He quickly calmed down and asked, "What's the price?"

There is no free lunch in the world, and the promise of the other party is so dreamy that it is unrealistic. How high is the price based on reciprocal payment? Can you accept it?

"It's very simple, we need all the information you got on Mars, and it" said, Ren Hong pointed to the Mars projected in the middle surrounded by two flags in the northern and southern hemispheres, and the meaning became clearer.

Charles did not answer, and kept thinking about everything the other party said. Ren Hong was not in a hurry, and when he chose to remain silent, he lit a cigarette and boasted comfortably about the smoke. At this moment, Charles is sorting out all the information he has learned, and everything shows that the other party cares about Mars, and he tries to find out what loopholes and traps there are.

And this so-called cooperation is a huge profit with the United States. Just sharing the data of Martian creatures is far from enough for the other party to pay such a high price, but when Ren Hong points to Mars in the projection, it has another meaning , is a kind of ambition. It is an indisputable fact that their "Gemini Project" has cost a huge amount of money. That is to say, the value of Mars is far from what it appears on the surface. The nearest planet, where the meaning is quite different.

The other party's heavy bet on Mars at all costs also shows this point. Ren Hong even nakedly expressed his intention to carve up, and even seemed impatient. If the other party wants to pull the United States into the group, there will be no worries at all. It is tantamount to limiting the game between two players and kicking the others away. The two most powerful space powers in the world today are united, and other countries have no competitiveness at all except polar bears.

Charles is not sure whether this is his personal meaning or the meaning of the country behind him, but after thinking about it carefully, it really doesn't matter, just like international law puts the sun series into the high seas as the common property of all mankind, but the express regulations have nothing to do with it. significance.

Charles, who had lowered his head and thought for a long time, slowly raised his head. Seeing this, Ren Hong smiled and said, "How are you thinking, Mr. Charles?"

"I'm sorry, R. Ren." Charles said: "This matter is of great importance, and it has exceeded my scope of authority. I need to report to the higher authorities, and then I will reply. What do you think?"

Ren Hong said that there is no problem, and personally sent the other party out of the waiting room while reminding the other party to make a decision early, so that the trapped astronauts would have a greater chance of survival.

"True and false, it's getting more and more interesting"

United States, Washington, D.C., the White House.

In the President's Office, the then President of the United States and his Secretary of State were in the office. The President was looking at a document report. After a long time, he put it down and asked, "What do you think about this?"

"It has to be guarded, Mr. President, don't forget the Soviet Union." The Secretary of State said cryptically.

As soon as the words came out, the president immediately looked up at the other party, but did not speak.

In addition to the collapse of the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, which is known as the grave of a great power, which led to a great reduction in national power, another major factor was that it was dragged down by the unrestrained space arms race. The so-called "Star Wars" program exists as a horrific hoax.

"It shouldn't be like that. The times are different." The president said: "The other party's investment on Mars is not fake, and the discovery of Martian indigenous creatures is ready to make a comprehensive analysis of this incident by the think tank. Tell Charles and wait for a reply in three days."

"Why don't you find out what's going on on the other side first?" the Secretary of State said, looking at the red phone not far away. This phone will only connect to one place.

To be continued.
