Chapter 681 Everyone celebrates (Third update, please subscribe)
This is not the first live TV broadcast in human history. In fact, in this era when TV just started broadcasting, except for documentaries and scientific and educational films, all TV programs It's live.
However, this is a choice forced to be made under technical constraints. It is not a real remote live broadcast.
But on November 1, this day, humans realized remote live broadcast for the first time.
During the test in Kaping Amarangi Atoll, a huge balloon was hovering at an altitude of 8,000 meters. The unmanned balloon was connected to the ship with a steel cable. Below the balloon, suspended A pod containing radio relay equipment.
At the same time that atomic bomb testing began on Kaping Amarangi Atoll, signals from ship cameras and aircraft cameras were relayed through high-altitude balloons, amplifying radio signals.
Sir, a TV set in the official residence is constantly picking up radio signals sent through special frequencies thousands of kilometers away.
Through the more than ten-inch TV screen, Li Yian finally watched to the scene he had been waiting for.
A fireball suddenly jumped into the air on the screen, and the waves immediately rolled on the sea, and the heat wave surged. The fireball in the sky jumped higher and higher into the sky.
Smoke and clouds shot up from the top of a huge pillar of fire. The height is over 10,000 meters. After a while, a huge mushroom cloud formed in the sky.
People stared at the pictures on the screen - huge mushroom clouds, waves hundreds of meters high, warships that were directly overturned, weapons and equipment that were destroyed and twisted into scrap metal...
The live broadcast lasted no longer. It didn't last long, but after everything was over, Li Yian just sat there, quietly watching the snowflakes on the TV screen.
Success!
From this moment on, Nanyang has transformed from an ordinary small country into the third nuclear-armed country in the world after the United States and the Soviet Union!
Looking at the snowflakes on the TV, Li Yian wanted to stand up and share the joy of this moment with others, but there was no one else in the room.
"I should have called some people to enjoy it together if I had known it earlier!"
In fact, what's even more pity is... there are too few viewers for such a live broadcast. If it were broadcast live nationwide, the effect would definitely be better. Although there are not many civilian TV stations in Nanyang now, there has never been a program like this that broadcasts the atomic bomb experiment, right? Absolutely eye-catching.
What a pity!
But it doesn’t matter, you can continue to experiment and continue live broadcasting in the future!
At this moment, the phone in the office rang.
"Your Excellency, according to preliminary estimates by experts, the explosion yield of "Miss Ping" should be about 25,000 tons!"
"25,000 tons!"
Li Yian was stunned for a while, such a huge power is obviously Somewhat unexpected, this was an atomic bomb after all.
However, the United States has manufactured and tested an atomic bomb with a yield of 40,000 tons two years ago. So, there is still a lot of room for progress.
Then he said.
"Please congratulate all the participants of the "Good Morning Plan" on my behalf!"
In fact, Li Yian himself was not the only one watching the live broadcast, except for him and the generals of the Chang'an military.
There are hundreds of TV sets in Atomic City, etc., receiving this TV signal. This remote live broadcast test allows all participants in the plan to see the successful atomic bomb test at the first time.
To a large extent, this is confidence! Believe in your own technical level.
At the moment of the explosion, Yuan Jialiu left the conference room and took out a cigar from his pocket. In fact, he did not smoke, but this cigar was given to him by Your Excellency.
"Let's celebrate when we succeed!"
"Actually, you can order it now!"
Just a few hours ago, Yuan Jialiu said this on the phone to Li Yian.
Such confidence comes from the heart.
Lighting the cigar, the smoke from the cigar swirled around in his mouth before he spit it out.
"Successful!"
At this time, my wife's voice came from behind.
“Yes,”
Yuan Jialiu nodded and said looking at the blue sky.
“I didn’t expect everything to go so smoothly.”
The sight of Wu Jianxiong's non-smoking husband smoking a cigar there made me want to laugh. But she couldn't laugh. She knew that at this time, he needed to celebrate.
“Did you really not expect it?”
Yuan Jialiu smiled and said.
"It is indeed a bit unexpected, but everything is expected, but now..."
Pull his wife into his arms, Yuan Jialiu put his chin on his wife's shoulder, Wu Kenxiong tilted his head, and the two of them just cuddled together.
"We can also take a good rest,"
In the past few years, the couple have been like flying trapeze artists. Although they both work in Atomic City, they spend less time together and more time apart. Teaching in school means doing research in Atomic City.
Now, it’s time to take a break! After all, they have completed the most important research topic.
Not only should you take a break now, but you should also think about personal issues.
"Well, we should have a baby too..."
"Yes, increase production to serve the country! Now we have to work hard!"
The couple laughed. Now, everything has nothing to do with them, and it is time for them to return to their own lives. Got it!
Yuan Jialiu's words made Wu Jianxiong blush, and when she nodded in response, he asked again.
"Would you like to call Zhiyuan? He must be very happy now." To a certain extent, they and Li Yian are more often friends, and they are very close friends. At this time , it is certainly natural for friends to congratulate each other.
"No,"
Yuan Jialiu shook his head and said.
"Now he has more important things. After all, the atomic bomb has succeeded, and instead of having fewer things, there are more things."
Although he does not understand politics, he is very concerned about politics. Not unfamiliar. The atomic bomb in Nanyang had a huge impact on the world.
As the ruler of this country, Li Yian must consider this issue.
...
After the successful test, there is still one problem that needs to be solved, that is - the decision of whether to announce the news lies with Li Yian.
“We should tell the whole country!”
Li Yi spoke confidently, and all the fears that he had had disappeared without a trace as the mushroom cloud rose.
The "Good Morning Plan" finally succeeded!
In the past four years, in order to promote the "Good Morning Plan", Nanyang has invested a lot of energy and funds. It can be said that it is the biggest gold-swallowing behemoth - in five years, Nanyang has invested US$250 million. .
This does not include investment in two uranium mines in South Africa and Australia, nor does it include more than 1,000 tons of uranium ore smuggled from Africa through Hydra. This does not even include other comprehensive investments in aviation and other aspects.
Today, after more than four years of hard work, we finally have the results.
The successful completion of the current "Good Morning Plan" not only means that Nanyang is the third country to possess atomic bombs after the United States and Russia, but it can also boost the spirits of Nanyang people!
For Nanyang, a country dominated by immigrants, how has it built national centripetal force in the past few years?
That is through a good social security system and a good life for people.
Why does Nanyang want to establish a social security system? To put it bluntly, it is to tell everyone that Nanyang is better!
Thus giving them a sense of belonging and finally completing the transformation from Tang people to Nanyang people.
But just changing your life is not enough.
They also need some kind of pride, some kind of confidence!
The atomic bomb is one of them!
Because in this era, the atomic bomb is the most cutting-edge and most awesome technology. It is enough to elevate Nanyang's status to a level that no country can ignore.
After all, this world always speaks on the basis of strength.
Before the Russians had the atomic bomb, they had no choice but to retreat in many cases. After they had the atomic bomb, they had the confidence to face the United States.
With the atomic bomb, Nanyang's interests were guaranteed and its status was enhanced.
Even the Tang people in Southeast Asia will feel a sense of belonging to Nanyang because of the atomic bomb in Nanyang. In terms of winning people's hearts, this is definitely a good thing.
So, we must tell everyone the good news as soon as possible.
After thinking deeply, Li Yian pressed the intercom on the table and said.
"Xiangdong, come here."
Soon, Yu Xiangdong walked into the office. When entering the office, he took a special look at the TV. From yesterday until just now, the military The technicians on the other side are all playing with the TV,
"Xiangdong, prepare a press release."
"Yes, Sir, what is the content of the press release?"
Yu Xiangdong picked up his notebook and asked.
"Well, send it out in the name of the official residence,"
Li Yian stood up and said.
"At 9:03 this morning, we conducted an atomic bomb test in the southern Pacific Ocean..."
"What!"
Yu Xiangdong said in shock, the pen he was recording paused, and his eyes Keep your eyes open.
"Atomic, atomic bomb! Ours?"
"Yes,"
Li Yian smiled.
"It's our atomic bomb. Well, let's inform the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs inform the friendly countries!"
Then, Li Yian looked at his watch and said.
"The announcement will be made public in four hours!"
After thinking about it, Li Yian changed his words.
"Tonight, tomorrow... let the people of Nanyang experience this surprise together!"
For Nanyang, this is definitely good news worthy of universal celebration.
