Chapter 2205 Galen Erso
2205. Galen Erso
Earl Dooku's action against the commercial guild, from the perspective of Tang Yu and Palpatine, has two completely different meanings. This is a very clever political method.
In Palpatine's view, Earl Dooku is actively weakening the strength of the Confederacy of Independent Galaxies, bringing the already unbalanced balance of power between the two sides back under control. Let the Galactic Republic fight very hard, but still have enough confidence to win the war.
In Tang Yu's view, this is a signal that Earl Dooku and Palpatine are drifting away! Because Earl Dooku's ideal is to establish a powerful, efficient, and human race-led regime, as Tang Yu mentioned in several conversations with him before, if the current political system of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies continues , it is impossible to achieve this goal.
The Confederation of Independent Galaxies, as the name suggests, is a confederation, not even a federation, a loose alliance of those galaxies, and Count Dooku is not the political leader of this regime, but the spiritual leader. For example, the current Earl Dooku is like the Emperor of Japan or the Queen of England, without administrative power. But the reason why he has such great authority in the Confederacy is mainly because those business magnates listen to him, and almost all the troops of the Confederacy are provided by these business magnates.
As for those business giants, there are mainly five trade unions, interstellar banking associations, enterprise alliances, technology alliances, and business guilds. They are not so harmonious, and there are many conflicts and competitions between them. Therefore, they jointly elected Earl Dooku as the leader, so as to coordinate their actions and prevent internal strife.
Therefore, the business tycoons occupy an overly important position here. Even if such a completely fragmented regime wins the war, it will completely run counter to Earl Dooku's ideals.
Therefore, Earl Dooku's attack on the Merchant Guild this time is actually his first step in transforming the Confederation of Independent Galaxies according to his own ideals. Tang Yu also made this suggestion to him before. Because Tang Yu could also see that among the five major commercial giants, the commercial guild was the weakest, and Shu Mai was also the most bottomless and unscrupulous one. In the original plot, she was in charge of attacking the planet Felucia. When facing defeat, she even did not hesitate to launch a massacre against Felucia civilians, trying to leave the Republic a barren planet.
Giving the commercial guild a warning in advance and sharing the benefits of the commercial guild with other commercial giants is to create conflicts among them and pave the way for further actions in the future. In Earl Dooku's ideal, none of these business giants should exist, only the authority of the country is the most important thing!
In the end Shu-Mai had to bow his head and admit his cowardice, and suffered from this loss. After all, although the military position is gone, and there is no direct management of the planet, but after all, the industry of the commercial guild is still there, and the money is still there. You can still make money in the future, but you can't cover the sky with your hands like before.
Naturally, the other four big business giants who received benefits would not have any sympathy for Shu-Mai.
It's not bad that they didn't hit the rocks. The fields of business and politics are so cruel.
...
After staying on Geonosis for a few more days, Tang Yu ushered in a guest, Galen Erso. That is Orson Krennic's classmate, a genius scientist in energy crystallography, in order to avoid the war, he went to sea in Coruscant to do business. Krennic has returned to Coruscant, and the Death Star plan is very confidential, so he can't come again. Galen Erso just made a detour to see Tang Yu before going to Coruscant at his suggestion.
Tang Yu took the shuttle and docked directly in a passenger AA-9 transport ship, where he saw Galen Erso. Different from the middle-aged man full of vicissitudes in the movie, the current Galen Erso is just a shy young man. He still wears glasses. When facing Tang Yu, he looks a little embarrassed, because He had never come so close to a man of such power.
"You...you are the one that Krennic said...the one who funded this 'Tianneng Project'...Tang Yu? It's a pleasure... a pleasure to meet..." Galen Erso said.
Tang Yu smiled kindly and said, "I'm Tang Yu. It's a pleasure to meet you. I heard from Krennic that you are his classmate and the best energy crystallographer he has ever seen. Is that true?"
As soon as he talked about his own job, Galen Erso calmed down a little. He nodded and said, "I do have some confidence in this aspect."
"In your vision, how should the 'Tianneng Project' work?" Tang Yu asked, unlike Krennic who fooled him to build the Death Star's super laser cannon, Tang Yu was really interested in this fictional plan . Because once this imaginary plan is implemented, when he returns to the system space, he will be able to directly improve the technological level of the other worlds under him by several levels!
"This is a kind of wireless energy transmission. In the past, such technology was mainly carried out by relying on the ionosphere in the atmosphere. This technology has a great negative impact and will cause great damage to the environment. It is also fatal to those flying creatures. disaster..." Galen Erso said.
Tang Yu nodded. In fact, this technology exists in Skynet's database, and it is for this reason that he did not use this technology. It seems that since the laws of physics are the same, it is not surprising that similar technologies appear.
Galen Erso continued: "The Tianneng Project is different. In my conception, a huge space station will be built, and it will have an energy remote transmission device powered by Kyber crystal. This space station can directly send The energy is sent out, and then received by the receiver on the planet, so as to obtain huge energy. We all know that it is much easier to obtain energy in space than in the atmosphere. Great energy. And the space station is mobile, that is to say, one space station of this kind can supply energy to many planets!"
"You mean, to emit energy like a laser cannon?"
"This would be orbital bombing, absolutely not! That's why the energy teleportation device I'm using will be powered by Kyber crystals. Kyber crystals are also the power supply device for the lightsabers of the Jedi Knights. This crystal has extremely strong The power of the lightsaber, but if used properly, this kind of energy can also be very gentle. Just like the lightsaber of a Jedi knight, even if you are very close to the lightsaber, you can’t feel the temperature of the lightsaber, only direct contact, the power of this energy Only then will it explode. The energy beam emitted by the same principle will not cause too much damage." Galen Erso said.
Tang Yu nodded, "For a civilization, energy is the key factor of this level of civilization. As long as you can break through the shackles of energy, then everything else will be solved. I like your idea very much, Mr. Galen Erso .”
"It's my pleasure."
Tang Yu handed over a card and said: "Remember the number above, this can directly contact me. Once you find that the situation is different from what you imagined, you can come to me at any time. Remember, I am really right" God Can plan 'interesting."
