Chapter 841: The Crowd Is Bustling

Above the head is the vast universe, under the feet is the blue earth.

On the black platform flying around the earth at 7.9km/s, a one-meter-tall metal mimicry man holds a spherical camera.

This wonder was shown to millions of people.

In the airless low-Earth orbit, there is a silent silence.

But on Earth, there is already a bustling crowd.

Countless people watching the live broadcast jumped up to witness this miraculous moment.

"Fuck, Master Zhou is awesome!"

"Swipe the card and pay it back in 72,000 installments."

"In ancient times, there was Yugong moving mountains, and now there is a living father paying installments. Do you want your descendants to be endless?"

"Mimicry robot? How many good things does he have?"

"Mom. Isn't Nantianmen a myth? How come there is really one in the sky~"

"I have decided that I will become an astronaut in the future! I must go to 'Nantianmen' once in my life!"

Zhou Rui took the mimicry camera and put it back to its original place.

Its movements were also synchronized to the Nantianmen.

The camera returned to the structure similar to the ship island, and then Zhou Rui controlled the mimic metal man and walked in front of the camera.

"Everyone, this space mission was a complete success. I hope you can enjoy the beautiful scenery brought by Nantianmen."

"The observer's perspective will continue to work. Welcome to check the slow live broadcast on the official website. More specific information will be disclosed in the Clean Space Alliance."

Zhou Rui smiled and waved, and the mimic metal man also waved.

"Then, let's end it first, goodbye."

The next moment, the mimic metal man fell like falling into the water, turned into a winding metal stream again, and disappeared in the observer's perspective.

In the command center, Zhou Rui's auxiliary intelligent unit also fell back to the ground.

In the Wanhu base, a tsunami-like cheering broke out!

Yang Rubin's expression was complicated. Sure enough, Zhou Rui would not be quiet no matter what field he was in.

He would let the world hear his voice again and again.

Although Gan Yuan's right leg was weak, she still forced herself to stand up and gave the boss the warmest applause.

Being able to look directly at the sun and appreciate its dazzling beauty is the greatest satisfaction in life.

Behind the command center, Han Ziyin and Li Wenqian held hands, their hearts surging.

Almost at the same time, they whispered: "So handsome!"

Then they looked at each other and smiled at each other.

Khalid in the observation room clenched his fists.

Cooperation! We must cooperate! Our Emirates Space has sufficient funds and only plays high-end games!

Shang Zhi and Weng Changzeyu from Ryukyu looked at each other and were glad to see it.

Ryukyu chose the right direction and the right people.

The photographer in the back breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed in his heart that he didn't know how much time would be spared to introduce "Nantianmen" in the evening news broadcast.

There are too many pictures that are enough to be recorded in history today, and every frame is worth showing to the people of the whole country.

This is definitely an important page in the history of human spaceflight.

Zhou Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the red dot of the camera go out.

Not nervous, but always nervous.

After all, it was the first time that many new technologies were launched. He was just bold. If it was a national team project, he would have to test it secretly two or three times and verify it for three to five years before he dared to launch it?

But fortunately, everything went smoothly.

Next, it was time to enjoy the joy of success.

Zhou Rui strode to the back, picked up his two beauties on the left and right.

"I miss you!"

It really feels like a hundred days apart.

Han Ziyin tightened her arms, then broke free with nostalgia, and said gently: "Go greet the others first. You are the protagonist today, and everyone is waiting for you."

Li Wenqian was held on the right side, just facing the little shower on Zhou Rui's shoulder. She suddenly touched the little shower's head and said: "Thank you, you have worked hard too~"

The little shower paused slightly, and then a smile appeared on the big eyeballs, making a happy sound effect.

Zhou Rui took a deep breath of the fragrance of gardenia and milk, and then turned around to respond to everyone's congratulations.

Yang Rubin: "Congratulations, Mr. Zhou has done another great thing."

Zhou Rui whispered: "We can cooperate in the future. We have multiple fine decoration plans for the rough house we showed today~"

Yang Rubin's eyes lit up: "I'll tell you in detail later."

The people in the observation room were anxious and could only get as close to the glass curtain wall as possible to show their presence. Zhou Rui waved his hand and signaled to stay calm.

Needless to say, the employees followed his pace and marched for more than a month. Zhou Rui thanked and encouraged everyone.

When it was Gan Yuan's turn, the little secretary whose legs were not well moved forward and her feet softened.

She almost knelt directly in front of Zhou Rui.

Knowing that there would be filming, she didn't want to cause trouble, so she didn't bring crutches.

As a result, she didn't cause trouble, but she almost made a fool of herself in public. Fortunately, Zhou Rui caught her and lifted her up with a strong force.

Why do you have to do this?

From the side, it looks like Gan Yuan threw herself into Zhou Rui's arms.

Zhou Rui immediately turned around to look at the direction of his two beauties, only to see Han Ziyin and Li Wenqian still clapping.

Li Wenqian was still happy, Han Ziyin smiled and raised her delicate eyebrows, giving Zhou Rui a playful look.

"Entry task [Sea King], experience value +2, current progress (71/100)."

The system prompt came late but arrived.

Gan Yuan broke free from the boss's arms, straightened her clothes, and said awkwardly: "Congratulations, boss."

Zhou Rui nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. You made a special trip even though your injury hasn't healed yet."

Then he found a female staff member: "Help Mr. Gan."

Zhou Rui walked from the back to the front, shook hands with everyone, and then returned to the front of the stage, the white space.

At some point, a microphone appeared in his hand.

He said loudly:

"To all members of Taitian Workers, and members of Kaiming Intelligence who participated in the assistance, today's success also belongs to you! Thank you for your efforts during this period!"

"Thank you for believing in me! There are bonuses and holidays! Let's celebrate tonight and don't go home until we are drunk!"

"Oh!!!"

The sound rose again.

To the sky.

It seemed that it could also be heard from the Nantianmen floating quietly on the track.

————————

At NASA headquarters, a high-level meeting was underway, with some people sitting together and others connected by phone.

It was noon in China, night in Washington, and early morning in Europe.

NASA, RFSA (Russia), ESA (Europe), CNES (France), JAXA (Japan).

It cannot be said that there are many talented people. Except for the first three, they all don't understand how to fly rockets.

But these institutions do represent the aerospace power of most mainstream Western countries.

It is worth mentioning that although the big goose has been somewhat at odds with the West in recent years, the cooperation in the field of aerospace has always been very close. Most of the construction, operation and maintenance, and transportation of the International Space Station are done by the big goose.

As early as before the launch of the Taiyi Tiangong, these departments had agreed to hold a telephone conference afterwards, but now, everyone is more serious than expected.

If it was not a telephone conference, but a video conference, they would find that everyone's expression was the same.

Twenty or thirty people, can't make up the feeling of a mother.

NASA Director Nelson looked at the connection status on the screen. The signal source of a certain Eastern power was gray.

"Where's ISRO? Why didn't they connect?"

"They said the signal base station is broken and can't connect."

"Can't it be fixed?"

"The electrician is fixing the lines."

"Well, let's get started. I think everyone has watched the video. Tell us what you think."

RFSA (Russia): "About 15 minutes ago, an hour after they launched, the International Space Station seemed to have observed the 'Gate of Heaven', but the orbits of the two sides are not close, so it is impossible to observe closely."

ESA (Europe): "It doesn't matter. The live broadcast is detailed enough and is still being broadcast, but the camouflaged metal has not appeared again. ”

JAXA (Japan): “Will it be a nanorobot?”

ESA (Europe): “Obviously not. It’s not that small. The single unit is about 1.5-3cm. It’s hard to determine due to the lack of scale.”

CNES (France): “The official website of the Clean Space Alliance does not disclose any information. I think this technology is no worse than “Heaven’s Gate.”

The meeting lasted a long time, mainly focusing on the discussion of various technologies of “Tai Tian Gong”. Everyone expressed their opinions and really pieced together some useful information.

For example, the general structure, design ideas, and mimicry command of “Heaven’s Gate”.

Among them, although Heaven’s Gate is amazing enough, there is too little known information.

And “mimicry command” has more room for imagination, because it will become a “foundation” and may lead to a series of aerospace changes.

Let’s put it this way, in the past, when launching something into space, basically everyone was looking at a huge amount of numbers, estimating and imagining the actual situation.

Although “computers” can assist in calculations, judgments are ultimately made by “human brains”, which will involve time delays, sensor lags, and misjudgments.

In comparison, the difference between traditional command and mimetic command is like the difference between DOS system and intelligent system.

The basic capabilities alone have already widened the gap.

Not to mention the "mimetic control" and "mimetic maintenance" capabilities that Zhou Rui later demonstrated.

Isn't the biggest problem in aerospace control? Who doesn't know how to throw things into the sky?

It can be said that "mimetic command" is far more important than ordinary people perceive. It is like the "South Gate of Heaven" in the aerospace field, a "platform" that can carry countless possibilities.

But even so greedy and amazing, at the end of the meeting, at Nelson's suggestion, the participating organizations reached a common agreement.

That is: the space agencies of various countries cannot actively join the "Clean Space Alliance" and must advance and retreat together.

It is hard to say how much binding force it has, but on the surface, everyone is of one mind.

As for the information disclosed within the Clean Space Alliance, Nelson said:

"They chose the form of field observers. Even if there is information disclosure, it is estimated that it will be in the form of offline meetings rather than directly sending out information. But don't worry, we will still get relevant content, but there will be a slight delay, and we will share it with everyone at that time."

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and he doesn't believe that everyone is keeping their mouths shut.

After several hours of meetings, it was already early morning in Washington, and Nelson loosened his tie tiredly.

At this time, it should be night on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. They should be celebrating wildly, right?

In the conference room, Hansen, who was attending the meeting in person, said:

"As a reminder, the standards in their invitation list are very poor. I have never even heard of Mongolia having a space agency. Even if these people saw it live and someone even introduced it to them, I have a question mark on how much they can understand. "

Nelson sighed: "I know, but we cannot let mainstream countries participate at this stage. They are too passive towards us."

NASA is the big brother in the world, and because of the Wolfo Act, it cannot have any cooperation there.

If other countries join in, they will feel a bit bleak in their later years. They can't slap themselves in the face and repeal the Wolf Act, right?

Nelson was about to say something when his cell phone rang. He took a quick look and knew what was going on.

A big shot has woken up and is here to ask questions.

"..Sir, yes, we just finished our discussion."

"Don't worry, the space agencies of various countries will respond with the correct attitude. At that time, the media may also need to cooperate."

While chatting, Nelson looked up at Hansen.

"No, because of this, we should fully promote the Eye of Artemis project and let the world see our actions."

"Okay, you'll see the news about our success."

After a long time, Nelson hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and said to Hansen:

"Hansen, I will abide by the agreement I made with you and do my best to ensure that the 'Artemis Eye' plan will not be axed, but you know, I am only the director, not the president. You may have to speed up the progress. I couldn’t bear it before.”

After saying that, without waiting for Hansen to respond, he stood up and said:

"Let's go have breakfast together. I feel like I can eat a cow."

Hansen was silent for a while, and finally said: "Thank you, it's my treat."
