Chapter 335 Even if You Are a Genius, You Can’t Just Postpone It! (6K Votes Requested, Please Follow Up)

The scene of Starship V3 successfully flying into the sky carrying 130 tons of human life-support equipment made everyone watching the live broadcast feel incredible.

This time it didn't explode into fireworks in mid-air?

Even the ugly people themselves can’t believe this!

They once thought that the Space Exploration Company's rockets would never be able to successfully enter space. However, the successful launch of Starship V3 forced them to re-examine the world and their technology.

The people at the scene fell into a carnival.

"Hou Li Crab! I just said that our technology is not that bad! Did you see it? 130 tons of load capacity! I want to ask who else in the world can do it?"

"Who said our technology is no longer good? Now slap us in the face!"

"Although Mr. Mark is usually a bit crazy, there is no doubt that he is smart. Does Luo Yao from China dare to compete?"

"Luo Yao? Forget it, the Baidi he developed has a maximum load capacity of 50 tons. Compared with our starship, it is simply a world of difference."

"The Chinese still brag about how powerful their technology is, but now? I just want to ask if they dare to brag!"

The long-suppressed pride and excitement of the Ugly people reached its peak.

They began to discuss various news about Starship V3 enthusiastically, as if they had forgotten their past doubts and ridicules towards Space Exploration Company.

They began to compare with the aerospace technology of other countries, especially Luo Yao of China and his White Emperor.

After hearing the overwhelming ridicule from foreigners through the live broadcast, the Chinese could not sit still.

They know very well that Luo Yao and the Baidi he developed not only represent his personal honor, but also the pride of the entire Chinese aerospace industry. Who can endure the ridicule and doubts from the outside world?

"Do some people really think that it's enough to successfully reach the sky? I don't know if they can successfully reach the moon!"

"We can't carry enough weight, but we have a lot of Baidi. Last time, the daily cost was even lower than yours! Don't you dare to talk about the cost without talking about it?"

"I'll just let you fly for a while, you guys are so proud. Do you know our plan for the lunar space station? I believe it will be launched into orbit soon!"

"I really thought we would be as afraid of your starship V3! It won't be too late for you to say this again when the lunar space station enters orbit!"

Everyone responded to the ridicule of foreigners on the Internet. Some investors felt the same as many netizens at this time. In addition to being excited, there was also a hint of worry.

The launch plan for the lunar space station has not been announced yet. Is there something wrong?

Some investors are even more worried about problems with the companies they invest in because they have cooperation projects with the space station.

If something goes wrong, wouldn't it affect their investment returns and subsequent investments?

After Mr. Xie of Blue Investment Group discovered that Starship V3 had been launched, he thought of their lunar space station for conditional launch.

In order to obtain specific information about the lunar space station, he knew that this could only be solved by relying on connections and finding people within the space station team.

Mr. Xie remembered that his nephew was the second-level engineer on the project. He checked the time, picked up the phone and called his nephew.

"Ruiming, how is the project you are working on?" Mr. Xie said when he heard the call was connected.

"Uncle, are you talking about the lunar space station project?"

After hearing this, Mr. Xie hurriedly said: "It is exactly this project. Have you heard when the lunar space station will be launched?"

"Well..." Xie Ruiming wondered how he knew?

The big guys in the office were quarreling. What could he, an engineer, know?

"Old uncle, don't ask about what's going on here, it won't do you any good!"

Mr. Xie was unhappy after hearing this. Is there anything wrong with him asking his nephew?

"You kid, I didn't even bother asking you about anything before. Why are you talking to me like an official today?"

Xie Ruiming said anxiously: "Uncle, Academician Luo was not involved before. What you learned about today involves Academician Luo. You can't inquire about this matter!"

"Academician Luo, is that Luo Yao? Why can't I inquire when it comes to him? Are you looking for an excuse to lie to me?" Mr. Xie said with a look of disbelief.

Xie Ruiming was going to be mad at his old uncle.

"Who is Academician Luo? Academician Luo is someone we can't afford to offend. Do you know how much the people above him value him? Some time ago, some people complained about the news that Chou Country announced that it would launch human life devices to the moon and Mars. , there are people in China talking about Academician Luo.”

"I said that Academician Luo's technical level is limited and he is not suitable for aerospace. I want him to keep a low profile. Do you know the follow-up?"

Mr. Xie was stunned: "What's the follow-up to this? Isn't this the keyboard warrior's oral pleasure?"

"Then you are wrong. That man was prosecuted and sentenced to two years for defaming a national hero."

"In addition to him, there were others as well, with sentences ranging from a few months to two years."

"Is it so serious? The higher-ups actually take care of this matter?" Mr. Xie said in disbelief.

"I give this example just to tell you that Academician Luo is not an ordinary person. Once something involves him, the situation will be completely different!"

"You don't want to go to jail either, do you?"

"Uncle, you have been in the market for a long time and don't understand our scientific research community. This is not something you can inquire about."

"So, regarding the lunar space station, I cannot disclose the situation until the official announcement is made."

"Even if I dare to say it, you probably won't dare to listen."

Mr. Xie, who was shocked by what the other party said, did not dare to talk any more. He was worried that if he continued to talk like this, he would have to eat several boxes of prison meals!

Mr. Xie took a deep breath, composed himself, and decided to temporarily stop the discussion about the lunar space station. He knew that when it comes to major national scientific research projects, especially for people like Academician Luo Yao, any rash remarks may cause serious consequences. as a result of.

Xie Ruiming breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

How dare he say what is going on with the lunar project!

I don’t know if the bosses in the office understand the quarrel!

Inside the office three hundred meters away from Xie Ruiming.

Academician Shi looked at Luo Yao angrily.

"Gong Luo, I know you are worried that Mark will go up and steal our resources, but the lunar space station has just replaced parts and cannot go up to the sky immediately."

"The power of science and technology is powerful, but the human factor cannot be ignored. I know you are very powerful, Luo Gong, but the lunar space station will be responsible for manning people in the future. In the longer term, it will be our Chinese people on the moon in the future." Ten years of shelter, we should be cautious!”

"You just mentioned that you will be responsible if there is any damage to the lunar space station. I know you have the ability and the financial resources, but what is the purpose of us astronauts exploring space?"

"Do you want to conquer space?"

"Of course not. We are looking for humanity's second home. The key here is humanity. If we can't even protect the safety of astronauts, how can ordinary people believe that we have the ability to immigrate to other planets."

Shan Xing, who was standing aside, was in trouble.

Because Academician Shi is right, what the older generation of astronauts really want is "stability".

It seems that he is hesitant and hesitant, but in fact he is really thinking about the overall situation.

He looked at Luo Yao, who was silent next to him, and advised: "Gong Luo, what Academician Shi said is right, we really need to be more cautious. Astronauts are also human beings, not experimental subjects. We cannot take their lives lightly. "

"It is indeed inappropriate for the lunar space station to go to heaven under the current situation. The current situation is indeed not good for us, but there is no other way. We can only wait."

"wait?"

"According to NASA and Mark's speed, do you think they will give us time to slowly test it?"

"Don't forget how the Ugly people treated the Indians."

Shan Xing and Academician Shi looked at each other.

Luo Yao mentioned that everything else was okay, but when he mentioned the Indians, the tragic situation at that time appeared before their eyes unconsciously.

As one of the project leaders, they shoulder huge responsibilities and must advance the project while ensuring the safety of astronauts. However, facing pressure from NASA and other competitors, they seem to be in a dilemma.

"No matter what, the lunar space station cannot be launched now!" Academician Shi said firmly.

Luo Yao put his hands in his pockets and said, "If it doesn't work, it won't work. It's not that there are no other ways." After saying that, Luo Yao turned around and left.

He knew that if he continued to talk to each other like this, the two of them would not give in.

Although he knew what the other party said made sense, when did the parts he designed go wrong?

Since the lunar space station would not allow launch, he would find another way.

He hasn't come up with a particularly good way now, so he has to go back to the dormitory first. Anyway, if he continues to stay here, he won't be able to convince the other party.

After Luo Yao left, Shan Xing and Academician Shi panicked.

"What do you mean he just left like this? Could it be that he wanted to report to the superiors without us?" Academician Shi said with a worried look.

"No, it's really possible. He has Lao Zhou's contact information, and he can report anything directly to Lao Zhou."

Shan Xing suddenly felt bad when he thought of this.

He was well aware of Luo Yao's ability and influence. If Luo Yao really reported directly to Lao Zhou and received support, then the steady strategy they had insisted on before would probably be disrupted.

"We have to find a way quickly to prevent him from getting to this point." Academician Shi's voice was filled with a hint of urgency. This matter was closely related to tens of millions of astronauts, and he couldn't be more anxious.

Shan Xing took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

He knew that the panic at this moment would only make things worse. He looked at Academician Shi, with a firm light flashing in his eyes.

"Academician Shi, we can't do nothing." Shan Xing said in a deep voice, "Now we must take the initiative and find a way to prevent Luo Yao from reporting to the superiors."

Academician Shi nodded.

He knew that this matter was related to the future of the entire aerospace industry, and he could not be careless in the slightest.

Academician Shi thought for a moment and then said: "We can try to communicate with Luo Yao first to understand his true thoughts and intentions. After all, he is also thinking about the aerospace industry, but he may be a little too impatient."

Shan Xing was stunned.

No, your IQ is not as good as Luo Yao's, and you still want to talk to Luo Yao?

Isn't this a big show of force in front of Guan Gong?

Shan Xing quickly stopped Academician Shi's ridiculous idea and said, "Academician Shi, this won't work. It would be too troublesome to take action and it would waste time. Maybe while you were talking, Gong Luo had already contacted Lao Zhou."

"In my opinion, the best way is to go directly to Lao Zhou and explain the situation. After listening to our detailed explanation, Lao Zhou will never take the risk and agree to launch the lunar space station!"

Academician Shi listened to Shan Xing's words, his brows furrowed, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

He understood that Shan Xing's worries were not unreasonable. If Luo Yao really contacted Lao Zhou first, their previous efforts might have been in vain.

The time is accurate for them now!

"You are right, we cannot take risks." Academician Shi finally made up his mind, "Then we will go directly to Lao Zhou and explain our concerns and considerations to him."

Shan Xing nodded, feeling relieved.

He knew that this was the safest way at present, so he and Academician Shi immediately began to prepare to report the specific situation and their ideas to Lao Zhou.

Soon after, they arrived at Lao Zhou's office.

Lao Zhou was surprised that they came.

"Aren't you preparing for the lunar space station? Why are you here free?"

When Lao Zhou said this, he paused and suddenly realized the situation.

"Are you here for the lunar space?" Lao Zhou put down the tea cup in his hand and said seriously.

Academician Shi and Shan Xing did not hesitate and quickly reported the current situation of the lunar space station, Luo Yao's intentions and their concerns to Lao Zhou one by one.

After listening to their report, Lao Zhou frowned and fell into deep thought.

He knew that this was a thorny issue that required careful consideration.

There is no doubt about Luo Yao's ability, but he did take some risks this time, and the safety and stability of the lunar space station is related to the future of the entire aerospace industry.

"Did he say why he was rushing to launch a lunar space station?"

After Shan Xing hesitated for a few seconds, he said: "Gong Luo used the Indians as an example, but I think this idea is too radical. We are not unarmed Indians. Who dares to touch us?"

Lao Zhou stood up and walked to the bed. He saw the birds in the distance and sighed.

After careful consideration, Lao Zhou finally made a decision.

"I understand. I will consider this matter carefully. The launch date of the lunar space station has been postponed for the time being. After the solenoid valve is replaced, it still needs to be tested carefully."

"Thank you for your understanding, Chief." Academician Shi said gratefully, "We will arrange the testing of the solenoid valve as soon as possible to ensure that everything is carried out in the best condition."

Shan Xing also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we will strictly follow the procedures to conduct tests to ensure the safe launch of the lunar space station."

Lao Zhou turned around and looked at them sharply: "I know you all work hard and are very responsible."

"However, we can't just be satisfied with following the process. We must always be vigilant and ensure that every detail is done to the extreme. After all, our goal is not only to successfully launch the lunar space station, but also to contribute to human exploration and development in space. lay a solid foundation for development.”

Academician Shi and Shan Xing quickly said yes.

"Also, as for Luo Gong, his idea is actually correct, but we are currently cautious and have not adopted it. You must be clear about this, and do not cause conflicts with Luo Gong in the future."

He really loves it.

He actually gave me a special instruction!

Academician Shi and Shan Xing didn't dare to complain, so they quickly agreed.

"By the way, how is Starship V3 doing now?"

Faced with Lao Zhou's inquiry, Shan Xing replied: "We don't know this yet. We didn't watch NASA's follow-up live broadcast when we rushed over."

"Well, let's take a look here. I also want to hear your opinions."

As Lao Zhou said this, he asked his secretary to come in and turn on the TV.

At this time, the picture on the TV was still showing the picture of the rocket entering space.

After a while, something went wrong with the picture on the TV.

There was a snowflake-like interference on the screen. The secretary quickly stepped forward to adjust the TV, but the screen still did not recover.

"What's wrong with this TV?" Lao Zhou frowned and looked at the snowflakes on the screen.

Academician Shan Xing and Academician Shi looked at each other and felt a little strange. They knew that NASA's live broadcasts are usually carefully prepared and tested, and such technical failures rarely occur.

Just when they were confused, the picture on the TV suddenly flashed and returned to normal. However, the picture that appeared this time was not the live broadcast of the launch of Starship V3 that they were looking forward to, but an emergency news break.

"Dear viewers, we are now interrupting an important piece of news." The news anchor's voice was a little anxious, "I just received news from NASA that Starship V3 temporarily lost contact shortly after entering space. Currently, people from NASA and the space company We are fully investigating the cause and we will continue to pay attention to this matter."

"We seem to think too highly of them?" Shan Xing commented speechlessly.

Academician Shi shook his head helplessly and said: "It seems that we are indeed too optimistic. However, this situation is not uncommon in the aerospace field. After all, the space environment is complex and changeable, and any small failure may lead to serious consequences." as a result of."

"This is why we are determined not to launch the lunar space station now!"

"We need to check our equipment and processes more carefully next." Shan Xing said solemnly, "There can be no omissions. The launch of the lunar space station must be foolproof."

Academician Shi also agreed: "Yes, we need to learn lessons from their incidents and improve our response capabilities. Only in this way can we ensure that future space missions can proceed smoothly."

Lao Zhou looked at them, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. He knew that his team was trustworthy. They had common goals and pursuits, and also had the courage and determination to face challenges and difficulties!

He wasn't worried that they would fail, he was just a little worried about Luo Yao now.

This kid, being so quiet now, could he be planning something again?

At the same time, Luo Yao was waiting for Starship V3 to reconnect with the signal.

He felt that Mark would be too weak if he only had this level.

What did not disappoint Luo Yao was that Starship V3 reconnected to the signal in half an hour.

"Judging from the current speed of Starship V3, it will take about three days to land on the moon."

"It will take Baidi two days to fly to the moon at full speed, which means I don't have much time to think about more plans."

"Starship V3 went to the moon carrying human life support equipment. Wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't have it?"

How could someone who has never taken second place in an exam be willing to wait for the lunar space station to launch?

According to the cautious attitude of that group of people, it will have to wait at least three months for the next launch of the lunar space station.

In three months, Crazy Mark was able to assemble the human life-support device on the moon and build a lunar base!

Luo Yao was filled with unwillingness. He could not accept the long wait of three months, let alone being left behind in the race for lunar exploration.

"I need a bolder plan, one that allows us to catch up with or even surpass Starship V3 in a short period of time."

Luo Yao's brain seemed to be a high-speed supercomputer at the moment, with every neuron frantically exchanging information and constructing various possible plans.

Deep in his consciousness, an invisible thought storm was raging, and various ideas, assumptions, and inferences flashed through his mind like lightning.

His brain first quickly and accurately analyzed the existing information. Starship V3 had successfully carried the human life support device to the moon, but their lunar space station had to wait for at least three months due to caution.

These three months seemed to be an insurmountable gap for Luo Yao. If they really waited until then, they would lose if they tried to exploit resources such as helium 3.

His mind began to rapidly construct various possible solutions.

Each plan formed a specific picture in his mind, and the results of the implementation of these plans flashed in his mind one by one.

Some plans appear to be too conservative and cannot catch up with Starship V3 in a short time, while other plans appear to be too risky and involve huge risks.

Luo Yao's brain was constantly evaluating and screening these plans, looking for the best option that would allow them to catch up to or even surpass Starship V3 in a short period of time.

Luo Yao thought for a while, but couldn't find a satisfactory solution. He thought about it and decided to let the little moss project the appearance of the moon.

The next second, the scene of the moon was projected by the holographic projector.

His eyes moved on the projection, from the north pole of the desolate moon to the equator and then to the south pole, leaving traces of his thoughts everywhere.

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a specific area on the moon - it was a relatively flat ground with not many craters and obstacles around it.

Looking at the land, a plan that he had never thought of flashed through Luo Yao's mind.

As his thinking deepened, a complete plan gradually formed in Luo Yao's mind. Luo Yao just went ahead and drew the design drawing on the computer, and then handed it over to Xiao Moss for verification.

An hour later, he saw the results.

Luo Yao picked up his cell phone and contacted Lao Zhou, asking to meet him.

Lao Zhou thought Luo Yao was talking to him about the lunar space station, so he readily agreed, and he could just appease him.

But it actually exceeded Lao Zhou's expectation.

"You want us to suspend the lunar space station plan?"

This kid really doesn't follow common sense!

Wasn't he eager to launch the space station before?

Even if you are a genius, you can't just postpone it!

If he didn't know Luo Yao very well, Lao Zhou would have thought there was something wrong with Luo Yao's brain!

Lao Zhou tried hard to control his emotions and try his best to look calm.

"Gong Luo, are you sure you're not joking?" Lao Zhou's tone was still unavoidable with a hint of uneasiness and doubt, "We have put in so much effort on this plan, and now you say you want to postpone it, this..."

Luo Yao interrupted Lao Zhou, his eyes firm and bright: "Lao Zhou, I know this decision may surprise you, but I have to do it. I have just completed a plan. I believe this plan can make We have achieved greater breakthroughs in a short period of time.”

"If this plan is completed, the existence of the lunar space station will be unnecessary." Luo Yao said, handing over his laptop and showing his plan.

Lao Zhou shook his head secretly.

How can we replace the space station...?

After seeing what was on the computer, Lao Zhou's eyes widened...
