Chapter 348 Bet on the power of the whole country


I have always felt good about myself o(n_n)o~, and I basically don’t ask for all kinds of nonsense. I always feel that if it is good, everyone will collect it. And today I received the first reminder ticket. In return, four updates today.

It’s just that I have to stay up late again this week—consecutive weekends break out, and work hours are tight.

——————————————————————————————

After repeated calculations, various extreme situations were calculated, and supercomputers were even used overnight to simulate all possibilities. And now it is the early morning of June 4th. I am really nervous about July 14th.

As a last resort, Gaoshou Company notified the current Chairman of Huaxia and everyone discussed it together. At noon that day, Zhang Jingyuan brought Zhou Feixuan, Mu Xinghai, Dongfang Ying, Li Canglan, and Zhong Yuanxing to discuss the calculation results with the national scientists, and the two sides reached an agreement immediately. Not to mention the crazy plan of the Master Company, it is really feasible. And if such an asteroid can really be captured in space, both its symbolic significance and practical value will be immeasurable.

On the same day, China issued a first-level adjustment order, which resulted in a nationwide power outage for a month. Except for necessary national defense and necessary infrastructure construction, all power supplies to residents, factories, etc. were suspended. Only the relevant factories responsible for manufacturing physical batteries and space shuttles are still operating. A large number of uncharged batteries are produced and transported by air to various power plants or power grid interfaces across the country for charging.

At the same time, in order to allow all the space shuttles of Gaoshou Company to be used as much as possible, the country urgently allocated 200 good pilots to come to support; of course, after this incident, these people will return empty-handed, unless they are willing to stay in Gaoshou company.

Of course, there is another type of factory that is working overtime: the flexible carbon fiber production factory. This is one of the most advanced materials mastered by mankind today. It is light, soft, but has strong toughness. It is an excellent aerospace material.

At the same time, all the pilots of the Master Company were informed and prepared; in addition, the production line began to work hard, and the space shuttle also entered the emergency modification stage. All available positions have been renovated. In addition, a large number of fully charged batteries were sent to the New Continent space base for storage so that power replacement can be completed directly in space.

The Master Company suspended all operations: the Space Mirror Project, the Sky Eye Project, the Space Shade Project; even the construction of the space base.

In addition, space express services have also been stopped. The sudden action of Gao Shou Company has left the whole world scratching its head. In other words, just destroying asteroids, according to the current capabilities of the Master Company, the two Dream space shuttles can definitely do it.

However, there are no fools in the world. Seeing that the master company stopped all its action plans, and there was a nationwide blackout in China, everyone can draw a rough conclusion by doing a little calculation of the data.

With so many people in the world, there really shouldn’t be too many smart people! Looking at the data, you can guess what China is going to do!

Just on the morning of the 5th local time in the United States, the President of the United States received a speculation report from his science and technology adviser and space environment adviser. Almost in no particular order, other countries have made similar speculations.

When all the presidents received this report, their first reaction was: China is crazy!

However, China is indeed crazy! This time it is really the most direct bet on a country's power, using the country's electricity production for a month to capture asteroids in space.

In the past, people talked about betting on the power of the whole country. Whether they were ordinary people or ordinary experts, they had no intuitive feelings. They just felt that life was a little difficult. But this time, China used the most direct evidence to show what it means to truly bet on the power of a country!

There was no advance notice and no time to prepare. There are less than 40 days left before July 14th, and a tense atmosphere hangs over the entire China.

Experts agree that all the newly launched space shuttles here are piloted by pilots from the country. At this time, there is no time to care too much. This matter is definitely a major matter that benefits the country and the people. There is no room for carelessness, let alone wrangling. When there is nothing urgent, everyone usually treats each other as entertainment, but no one dares to do so at this time.

The entire China was under military control, and centralization of power reached its peak at this moment. All speech was blocked—the electricity was cut off, and there was no good way to spread speech quickly. The most that could be done was to chat with neighbors.

However, the whole society is not without electricity at all. In fact, with the popularity of photovoltaic cells in China, many urban and rural residents have access to photovoltaic cells and wind power. The scattered and low efficiency of this power is not the key point of China today; so China is not really in darkness, and the country still maintains about 8% of its power supply.

The nationwide power outage for a month has caused immeasurable losses. This kind of pain made Chairman Hua Xia grimace in pain. In today's era, it is really unreasonable to interrupt development for a month.

No wonder other countries say this about China: Crazy!

Along the way, trains were stopped and only cars were still in use; airplanes were also stopped because the airport is a big consumer of electricity. Large amounts of stored natural gas, crude oil, and coal are being consumed at an unprecedented rate, and large tracts of resources can be seen disappearing every day. These resources have been turned into carbon fiber mesh, batteries, and electricity...

The entire China is experiencing a power outage, but the entire China is also boiling. Countless quarreling beasts were driven out and used their own speech to stabilize society.

Many countries began to accuse China of making fun of the fate of the world. Even the United States pointed out righteously: You should think about the world, not just yourself. With the United States taking the lead, all countries in the world are beginning to accuse China of being irresponsible. Even countries such as the United States and Russia, which have rail guns, have said that if you don't want to, we can do it.

In response, Chairman Hua Xia looked with disdain: Don't think I don't know that your broken rail gun adjusted its orbit for 48 hours after firing only one shot and almost crashed. Because the recoil force was not well controlled, less than 100 kilowatt-hours of the total 200-kilowatt-hour electricity energy was applied to the projectile, and the rest was all applied to the space shuttle. With you, I guess there is no chance to fire a second cannonball, and the asteroid will collide with the sky and the earth.

In this regard, these countries can only blush and say: Well, if you didn't control it well the first time, you will have experience next time.

However, there are also countries with good eyesight. The South Korean ambassador said: We have enough electricity and can sell electricity, but we need to pay for it with the aerospace engines of the master company. Electricity is calculated based on 5 yuan per degree.

Of course, China readily accepted South Korea's offer; although there was a suspicion of blackmail at this time, 5 yuan! But China really needs electricity at this time! In fact, the loss caused by the nationwide power outage in China is definitely greater than the base figure of 5 yuan.

South Korea can provide China with 10 million kilowatt hours of electricity per month, requiring the master company to pay for two engines. But the price, at this time, is pretty good.

Every day, there are space shuttles flying above China, new pilots are learning, and more materials are being transported to space: carbon fiber mesh bags that are 10,000 or even 30,000 meters long, a large number of physical batteries full of electricity, Countless space shuttle consumables... The New Continent space base, which was once thought to be huge, soon became a little bloated; but when the whole country was exerting its efforts, it was still not enough.
