Chapter 1717 I Want to Give It a Try

On Earth in today's space-time world, people only focus on two major things.

One is to develop the 'New World', to open up a relatively safe, stable and habitable place for humans. With such a place, humans can have no worries.

The second is the threat of alien invasion brought by the 'Manhattan Incident'.

Fortunately, with the 'New World', humans don't have to worry about the crisis of extinction. The worst case scenario is that all humans will move to the New World.

However, it is precisely because of the 'Manhattan Incident' that another benefit has been brought to humans, allowing humans to come into contact with an alien civilization called 'Star Spirits', and China and the United States, representing all mankind, have also obtained a lot of technology from the Star Spirits civilization, allowing humans to see the dawn of entering space and opening the interstellar era.

And with the 'New World' as insurance and backing, humans can completely give up many worries and start to study the technology assisted by the Star Spirits civilization with all their strength. Even if they encounter other powerful alien civilizations and become enemies with them when opening the interstellar era, the people on Earth have a way out.

Therefore, all human beings are now quite excited, and all resources and technologies are tilted towards studying the technologies delivered by the Protoss. Armed conflicts in some countries and regions around the world have subsided for this reason.

The current Earth is the most peaceful period in history.

Led by the United States and China, countries around the world have begun to take sides. Some countries in Europe and Asia have already chosen their own camps, while countries in the Middle East and Africa are still wavering and hesitating.

But no matter what, the global environment is still moving in a good direction.

The prices of raw materials such as oil, metals, and ores have fluctuated briefly in the international futures market, but they will soon rise rapidly. Although these things will definitely become less valuable after the interstellar era begins, the interstellar era has not yet begun.

And China and the United States are both fully purchasing raw materials and starting to build space battleships, so it is unlikely that the prices of various raw materials will fall at this stage.

Therefore, the Middle Eastern countries are relieved.

The Nevada oil field of Kim Hyun-tae's family also took the opportunity to start shipping a large number of shipments, making a lot of money at this time.

Many large companies with sufficient funds and technical strength also focus on some businesses related to the interstellar era, and Stark Industries is one of them.

Relying on his outstanding talent, Tony Stark developed the technology of refining oil, which purified the refined oil into a very special energy block. At the same time, after combining this energy with the "Ark Energy", he found that using the Ark Energy Matrix as the output power could actually make the refined oil energy burst out amazing energy.

So far, the energy and power system problems of the space battleship have been completely overcome by Stark, and the big problem of how to make the space battleship take off has been completely solved.

At present, Stark is studying the relevant technologies of the Protoss civilization, but due to the technological gap, there is obviously no way in a short time.

Osborn Biochemical Group has also begun to focus on some related businesses.

Various light clothing that protects against radiation, blocks harmful cosmic rays, and harmful substances on the planet have been developed and manufactured by Osborn one after another, and these have improved the cost of human survival in the interstellar era.

In this regard, China lags behind a lot.

However, with the help of Jin Xiantai, a large number of commercial spies easily stole the research results of Osborn and Stark, and then traded them to China through secret channels.

As a result, China now has the relevant technology and can apply it.

Of course, unlike Osborn and Stark, these technologies traded to China can only be used in the military, and cannot be mass-produced and sold to ordinary people to make huge profits like Osborn and Stark.

After all, China needs to ensure that Jin Xiantai's interests are not damaged.

You know, Jin Xiantai is a major shareholder in Osborn Biochemical and Stark Industries.

The United States obviously did not expect that there would be someone on its side who was secretly poaching...

But no matter what, with Jin Xiantai wielding a small hoe here, China is really not inferior to the United States, and even leading in some areas.

And this is a situation that Jin Xiantai hopes to see.

You know, Jin Xiantai is of Chinese descent after all.

Besides, if he wants to play like this, who can stop him?

The above are things played by big capital.

People in various countries who do not have such strong capital can only do small-scale business.

For example, many "gravity training" stores have emerged on the streets of Los Angeles. Ordinary people can walk into a store and choose a practice room as long as they are willing to spend a little money, and let the service staff help adjust the gravity in the room to do some exercise.

This is mainly to let ordinary people experience the interstellar era in advance, what it feels like to go to those planets with different gravity from the earth, and at the same time, they can also properly exercise their adaptability.

Stores like this are not only in Los Angeles, but also in the entire United States.

Even in Canada, Australia, Europe and other countries.

What "full-view interstellar combat training", "virtual warship operation", "simulated mecha" and other game stores have sprung up in front of the world.

Nothing else!

The reason for running such a business is that in addition to making money, it can also select ordinary people with talents from the people.

As the saying goes, "The great gods are among the people", there is a reason for this.

No matter what the official is doing, it is impossible to discover all the talented geniuses in a normal way. Many geniuses are also buried among the people, and even the geniuses themselves do not know that they have a certain talent.

Therefore, this requires some unconventional means to discover.

Nowadays, China and the United States have all issued a kind of smart card. The card absorbs the user's genes. From the age of ninety-nine to the time when they are just born, everyone has one.

In life, holding this smart card, any consumption can be completed through the smart card, which greatly facilitates people's lives.

At the same time, holding this card to go to those civilian interstellar training game rooms, those games will record the user's various game data. Once someone is found to have a certain talent, the official will come to the door in a very short time and recruit the guy who was found.

From then on, someone can change his current life and embark on the journey of marrying a white, rich and beautiful woman.

Mech battle! Battleship operation! Battleship command! Fleet command! Even personal physical training, etc., a large number of geniuses buried in the folk emerge every day, especially in China, which has the largest population base.

To be honest, the benefits of a large population will definitely be more, which is a very inevitable thing.

It can be said that all countries are now working hard to prepare for the upcoming interstellar era.

Coco is no exception.

After she returned to Earth from the Andromeda Galaxy, she found her little friend Keira. After the two naughty children chatted about everything, they felt bored and started the most popular interstellar war simulation game at the moment.

After all, they are not short of money.

So they don’t need to find that kind of street game store to play, but have an expensive private game cabin.

This game cabin includes all the current interstellar games, which are funded, developed and operated by SHIELD. Therefore, it can be said that every genius discovered will basically be mastered by SHIELD.

And by developing interstellar simulation training games, SHIELD has also begun to make a lot of money.

In the exclusive lounge for the president of AI Intelligent Company, a streamlined silver-white game cabin is placed here. Now the company makes a lot of money every month, so Coco is not stingy at all to buy a bunch of strange things, including this game cabin that costs millions.

Anyway, there is no shortage of money.

Nowadays, the naughty child is almost making more money than his father, so even if Coco is very spendthrift, Kim Hyun-tae, as a father, can't control it.

Therefore, Coco spends money as he wants.

In addition to the game cabin, there are many things that the little guy bought at a high price in the lounge.

For example, it is said that there is a rusty iron sword with a history of thousands of years.

It is rumored that there is a mask with strange power.

Roasted sweet potatoes that can make people have the power to destroy the world after eating.

There are so many things that the lounge is almost full.

Of course, basically these things that the naughty children bought at a high price turned out to be fake things in the end, and they are useless.

But Coco still buys them happily.

Even the good girl Kayla was led astray by Coco.

The two little guys pushed the door and walked into the lounge. Kaila walked in the back and closed the door.

"It smells like sweet potatoes, Boss. These sweet potatoes are almost stinky. I would throw them away immediately. We have already proved that they are fake. Why are you still keeping them?"

After closing the lounge door, a stinky sweet potato smell rushed into the nose, making Kaila complain.

Coco rolled her eyes and turned to Kayla, saying, "After all, we spent millions of dollars to buy the sweet potato. Let's keep it for a while and throw it away when it's completely rotten."

"I've said it before, the plots in the novel are all unreliable. It's just that you insisted on giving it a try, so we found the author of "I'm a Magician" and bought a baked sweet potato with millions of dollars. As a result, I was right, eating sweet potatoes can increase power, which is nonsense."

That's right, Coco was a little obsessed with reading online novels. At that time, she saw a novel "I'm a Magician" that said that sweet potatoes can increase people's magic power, so she took Kayla to find the author of the novel and forced the author to bake a sweet potato and sell it to the two naughty kids.

Coco generously gave the author millions of dollars.

But what happened?

It's impossible to increase magic power by eating sweet potatoes. Facts have proved that this is nonsense.

For this, the naughty kids lost millions of dollars.

"Hmph! Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's play games. I'm going to play Star Wars today. I'm going to use this opportunity to try out Yang Wei-li's tricks and open the eyes of those country bumpkins in the war group!"

Keke didn't want to talk more about the sweet potato.

After all, this was a very embarrassing thing, so she urged Keira to quickly enter the game cabin with her...
