Chapter 299 Lunar Development Plan
"The total area of Blue Star is only this large. No matter how isolated it is, it is impossible to completely block a place."
"What's more, transportation and communication are so convenient now. Even if you can physically block a place, you can't isolate internal and external communication."
"so……"
"This area can only be placed in space."
Su Xin's eyes were deep, and the thoughts in his heart became clearer and clearer.
"The current space navigation technology has initially matured. It's hard to tell about distant planets, but there is no difficulty in traveling to and from the moon."
"Transportation of materials and personnel, lunar communication network, remote monitoring of the earth and moon, and deployment of space-based weapons. Although these are all major projects, they are completely achievable with the current technical level."
"I can use the entire moon as a genetic experiment base for superpowers, allowing some superpowers to live and reproduce freely on the moon. If they continue to reproduce from generation to generation, the types of superpowers will definitely become more and more abundant, and the number will also become more and more abundant. many."
"It just so happens that this can also be regarded as the first step in officially exploring space immigration."
But very quickly.
Su Xin frowned.
"It is not difficult for humans to land on the moon, nor is it difficult to transport supplies, but the living environment on the moon is too harsh. There is no air, water is very difficult to obtain, the temperature difference between day and night is too large, and there is also the threat of cosmic rays. Food and various daily Not to mention daily necessities.”
"At least a complete ecosystem must be established first before humans can live on the moon."
"This step is the most difficult."
Su Xin thought further, turned on the computer, and started searching for some relevant literature.
He has never studied space technology in depth before, let alone the moon. He wants to build a lunar ecosystem from scratch, which is completely blind.
As he learned more about the lunar environment and some data, he became more and more aware of the difficulty of this major project.
Even if he could gather the power of the whole world, it would not be possible in a short time.
A complete large-scale ecosystem requires animals, plants, microorganisms, and the inorganic environment, all of which work together.
The moon is not satisfied with any of them.
"We must first transform the moon's living environment, plant plants, cultivate microorganisms, and transport the most basic non-biological substances from the blue star..."
"But slowly transforming the environment in this way may not be effective for decades..."
Su Xin rubbed his eyebrows, gave up this idea temporarily, and turned to think about other plans.
The transformation of the lunar ecological environment, purely in terms of technical difficulty, is not as good as many of the projects he has studied. The biggest problem is that it takes too long.
Superpower projects cannot be shelved because of this.
A biological experimental base located in the uninhabited land of the Northwest is under construction. It is used to study various biotechnologies including supernatural agents.
And the place where superpowers can survive that he is currently considering is considered a superpower genetic experiment.
Both are considered part of the superpower project and are both important to Su Xin.
"Perhaps, while I can arrange to transform the ecological environment of the moon, I can first buy an island on Blue Star and throw all the superpowers to live on the island, allowing them to fend for themselves and reproduce themselves."
"It's better to buy an unknown island, let the island disappear from the map, disappear from the world's sight, and be isolated from the world, and then implant positioning and monitoring chips in everyone's body, you can ensure that no one can There is no escape.”
"Coupled with the round-the-clock monitoring of Skynet satellites in the sky and the secret deployment of surveillance equipment on the island, we can keep track of the situation on the island at any time."
"For at least twenty years, this island will be enough for superpowers to survive and thrive."
"When the island begins to become crowded, the lunar transformation will be almost completed. Then we will send them directly to the moon to continue to increase the base of superpowers. By the way, they will serve as the first batch of lunar immigrants and further improve the lunar ecological environment."
Su Xin thought for a while, then wrote down his thoughts on the computer and improved them bit by bit.
After all this was done, he asked the steward Tianwei to recommend a suitable island.
Kucha Island is located in the northern Pacific Ocean, about three thousand kilometers northeast of Sakura Country, and belongs to the territory of Big Goose Country.
Kucha Island covers an area of more than 4,000 square kilometers. However, due to its remote location, there are no other islands within hundreds of kilometers around it. In addition, the climate conditions are not very good, so there has been no human habitation on the island. There is only a virgin forest above.
Such an island can be regarded as the most ideal destination for Su Xin.
Both the area and the geographical location perfectly met Su Xin's expectations.
"It seems that we need to talk to the Big Goose Country."
Su Xin picked up the phone, called his secretary Feng Haifeng, and said:
"Help me contact the Big Goose Country. I need to discuss a cooperation with their leader."
"OK."
Feng Haifeng responded solemnly.
Since Su Xin had not been involved in the group's affairs for a long time, he had not followed Su Xin in the past two years. Instead, he worked in the group's general manager's office as Su Xin's secretary. He usually focused on the group's work and played a role in Su Xin's daily life or work. When he needs help at work, he still handles it.
After hanging up the phone, Feng Haifeng began to contact Daeguo through the group's channels to make an appointment for a video meeting.
Su Xin contacted Hao Zude.
"Director Hao, I have a big plan that I want to cooperate with you. Are you interested?"
"Big plan? Of course I'm interested."
Hao Zude beamed.
Cooperation with Su Xin is a win-win situation every time. The combination of Su Xin's technology and Tianqi Group's financial strength can always bring extremely high profits to Longguo. Of course, he never tires of it.
"My plan is to transform the moon and transform it into an environment suitable for human survival."
"Of course, I also know that you have worked hard to develop aerospace technology over the years, and you must also be thinking of one day colonizing the moon."
"But my idea is to complete the transformation of the moon within ten years as much as possible and create a complete ecosystem suitable for human survival."
Hearing this, Hao Zude's face became more and more solemn, and he asked in a deep voice:
"Student Su, do you know that this is a very large system project. Even if we both work together, there will be a lot of pressure."
"Not to mention it has to be done within ten years."
“It’s almost impossible to build a planet’s ecosystem in ten years.”
"Another point is that we cannot occupy the moon so quickly. Several other countries are also developing aerospace technology. Although their technology lags behind ours, they will definitely be able to land on the moon before we completely occupy the entire moon."
"If we are halfway through the transformation, other countries will land on the moon one after another and occupy different territories, which will be equivalent to sitting back and enjoying our achievements."
"It's just like decorating a house. The entire house is ownerless, and whoever occupies it first will get it. As a result, we spent so much money to renovate the entire building, and in the end half of it was occupied by other people. That would be a big loss for Dafa.”
"Space resources like these are always first-come-first-served according to international rules. If we forcibly seize them by force or prohibit others from landing on the moon, it will be equivalent to becoming an enemy of the whole world. Such hegemonic behavior is also undesirable."
Su Xin said calmly: "Then let's call all countries together to negotiate and put forward our conditions."
"Let's tell everyone clearly that we will spend a lot of money to transform the moon. If someone lands on the moon later and wants to occupy the territory, it's okay, but they need to pay."
"Whether it's called environmental improvement fee or pit fee, you have to pay money to move in."
"Otherwise, get rid of them."
"We have spent so much money to transform the moon, how can we allow others to sit back and enjoy the benefits without even thinking about it."
Hao Zude hesitated for a moment and said:
"Let me go back and ask for permission first. This matter is too important. It may take a few days to discuss it with the higher ups. I will reply to you then, okay?"
"I see."
Su Xin nodded.
A week later.
Su Xin secretly signed an agreement with the Big Goose Kingdom and bought the permanent ownership of Kucha Island.
Big Goose Country even promised that in two months it would announce to the outside world that Kucha Island had suffered an earthquake and sunk to the bottom of the sea, and would no longer exist in the future, and announced that it would be officially removed from the map.
In these two months, what Su Xin has to do is to transform Kucha Island and set up an electromagnetic shielding area around it to make it inaccessible to people, so that it disappears from the eyes of the world.
If things go on like this, Kucha Island, which has little reputation, will gradually be forgotten.
the other side.
Tianqi Group and Longguo jointly launched a grand event called the 'International Summit Forum on Space Resource Development', extending invitations to all countries.
Su Xin will attend the meeting in person.
The news caused a stir around the world.
During this period, the whole world was calm, there was no big news, and Su Xin had not appeared in public for a long time.
With such a big movement this time, netizens are naturally extremely concerned.
August 5, 2029.
The International Summit Forum on Space Resources Development was held as scheduled. Delegations from various countries gathered in Tianjing, and all well-known mainstream media from around the world were present.
In a conference room of the General Assembly Hall.
Su Xin and representatives from various countries sat around a large round table. In front of each person were name tags and standing microphones with built-in daily translation functions.
As the only representative of Tianqi Group and the initiator of this meeting, Su Xin took the lead in speaking:
"With the rapid development of aerospace technology, many countries have stepped into space one after another. It is foreseeable that space resources will become an important resource that countries compete for before long."
"According to past international practice, space resources have always been first-come-first-served, because there were very few countries that could enter space in the past, and only the Dragon Kingdom was able to successfully land on the moon. So there is nothing wrong with this rule. Everyone has limited strength anyway. It doesn’t take up many resources.”
"Now, with the rapid development of aerospace technology, countries' occupation and use of space resources will greatly increase, and sooner or later conflicts will break out."
"The main purpose of convening this meeting today is to discuss with everyone the competition and cooperation mechanisms for the future development of space resources, and to set rules to avoid unnecessary disputes in the future."
"first……"
"As for various material resources, of course we still follow the previous first-come-first-served rule. Space resources are ownerless things. Whoever gets them first belongs to them. There is nothing wrong with that."
"But for shared resources such as the environment, we have to formulate new rules that are more complete, fairer and more reasonable."
"Take the moon as an example."
"The first stop for the official expansion of human life into space must be the moon."
"However, everyone also knows that with the current environment of the moon, it is simply impossible for humans to survive."
Su Xin's eyes quickly swept across everyone's faces, and he said calmly:
"To achieve lunar immigration, the first task is to transform the lunar ecological environment and create a livable environment for humans."
"Logically speaking, it is only fair that all forces that want to occupy a territory on the moon in the future should be jointly responsible for this kind of thing."
"However, the development of aerospace technology in various countries is fast or slow, strong or weak. The Dragon Kingdom, which was the first to develop, already has the strength to manned the moon, and the countries that are lagging behind have not yet stepped out of the Blue Star."
"Unless we wait until all countries' aerospace technology has developed to the point where they can land on the moon on a large scale, we can then discuss transforming and developing the moon together."
"But this efficiency is too low and has seriously hindered the development of human aerospace technology."
"And if the Dragon Kingdom is the first to start transforming the moon, and successfully transforms the moon at countless costs, and when it is ready to start immigration, the aerospace technology of various countries has almost developed, and they have begun to rush to land on the moon. The Dragon Kingdom will definitely not allow this situation. There will definitely be disputes then.”
"It's not good for anyone."
"The same applies to the development of other space resources in the future. There must be a fair and reasonable system to ensure that everyone has sufficient enthusiasm and to avoid disputes between countries."
Having said this, Su Xin paused.
He didn't bother to play tricks with everyone and directly expressed his thoughts.
"I propose that we all jointly establish a Blue Star Common Resources Development Association to coordinate all problems encountered in the development of various space common resources."
"Let's take the development of the moon as an example."
"Since the Dragon Kingdom has initially possessed the ability to transform the moon, it can propose in the association to launch a lunar transformation plan and invite capable members to join the plan for joint development."
"If other members do not have the development capabilities or are unwilling to join, then Longguo can develop it on its own and list all costs during the development process and file them in the association."
"In the future, when other members have the ability to land on the moon, they can choose to join the program, or they can station themselves on the moon based on their skills."
"However, no matter which choice you make, it is equivalent to enjoying the fruits of Dragon Kingdom's development of the moon, and you must pay a certain price."
"As for the specific cost, it can be comprehensively evaluated based on various factors such as the cost of the lunar transformation plan, the progress of the project, the size of the occupied territory, etc."
“That’s what the association is for.”
"It can not only ensure the efficiency and progress of space resource development and make human society progress faster, but also ensure that it is as fair as possible so that everyone has no worries about all kinds of efforts."
