In the present world, 237 nautical miles east of Ange Island is the border of the Country of Xin’s territorial sea. Going further southeast is an endless high seas, and you can’t even see an island nearby. However, because of the recent application of manganese nodules mining, Future mining with construction boat dragged a sea platform.

    However, it is strange to say that after this Future Mining left the offshore platform alone in this sea, it has never been started. In addition to the above-mentioned several soldiers who stood guard, several civilians who looked like a staff member, even the mining equipment could not be seen.

    What does the Future Group want to do?

    From the completion of Penglai city has been staring at the future group United States, is undoubtedly the most curious. Curious to curiosity, they were not good enough to ask directly, so White House used the usual tactics to disclose this information through a White House official who did not want to be named, and then let these reporters go to find out the news.

    However, the Future Group apparently did not eat the reporter’s set. Asked about the offshore platform deployed by Future Mining on the sea, the answer to the unified slogan was a sentence—“legitimate behavior. No comment.”

    The Future group’s “cover-up” has made the public more curious. For a time, all kinds of rumors were spurred on. Everyone at the keyboard analyzed the Future Group’s actions and explored deep-seated reasons. Some people say that the Future Heavy Industry is building the second Penglai City, and some people say they are building Undersea City. Some people even said that they discovered Alien’s relic under the seabed…

    Public opinion was easily led to strange places.

    What is Future Group doing?

    Everyone is curious about this problem…

……

    “what is that?”

    On the Shanghai platform, Stargoing Trading Aerospace Technology Center’s CEOKelvin glanced over the platform and there was a board about 20 square meters. From the appearance, unlike solar panels, he really can’t think of the function of this stuff.

    “Anti-Satellite Laser Array. It was too cumbersome to introduce. In a nutshell, the spy satellite above our head could only see a luminous spot of more than a dozen square kilometers. The radio signals that were monitored all became a haphazard noise. ”Jiang Chen took a fright on the sea platform and watched Kelvin smile. “This is one of the top secrets of the Future Group. Now you have the chance to go back.”

    “But that would make me wonder if I couldn’t sleep.”Kelvin shrugged and followed Jiang Chen’s.

    Droplet stopped at the square of the offshore platform, but Jiang Chen was going to show him the obvious is not the eccentric submersible.

    After entering the Droplet, Jiang Chen set the route on the holographic screen, and then opened the panoramic imaging, turning the entire [The Droplet 1] into a true Droplet, transparent from the inside out…

    “Stunning technology.”Kelvin stretched out his hand to poke on the bulkhead and poked his fingers on the steel plate. “I was the first time I saw such a magical underwater vehicle…Top secret is this stuff? ”

    “Do you think it needs to be kept secret?”Jiang Chen laughed.

    Kelvin also smiled.

    What is said is that this gadget is nothing more than the highlight of the technology that Future Group has come up with. Even in Penglai City, Jiang Chen did not hide anything from the media during the construction. Even half of the project began auctioning off the property on this artificial island.

    Obviously, this seabed hides something incredible.

    However, what confused Kelvin was that he had found himself under the seabed, and his job was in aerospace!

    Not waiting long, that is, two minutes of Kung Fu, [the Droplet 1] has slowly dived to seabed. When the searchlights turned on, Kelvin looked at the beam and suddenly his eyes widened.

    A giant metal cube looks from top to bottom and has a length of 2 to 3 kilometers. Compared to Penglai City, this cube is not shocking, but I do not know why, but he can feel more strongly from the structure of the Science Fiction feeling … …

    And intuition told him that this stuff is related to aerospace.

    Lenovo to the previous period of time Jiang Chen and he said the space elevator, his mind immediately surfaced a trace of enlightenment, is not …

    “This, what is this stuff?”Kelvin asked in a trembling voice.

    “I thought you could guess,” Jiang Chen smiled and smiled, pressed the holographic screen, and let the droplet stop in place, “space elevator Foundation, though not yet completed.” ”

    Yes, this is just a semi-finished product.

    The Space Elevator Foundation from the White Whale Seabed Investigation Station was a dismantled part. Jiang Chen mobilized all Amphibious Project Robots that he brought to this side of the earth. It took half a month to assemble these parts into the present one. Look like.

    Kelvin was silent for a long while before sighing.

    “I don’t know why, I always feel sorry.”

    Jiang Chen asked: “oh?Why?

    “We have not yet reached the limit of our life. The era of rockets is over.”Kelvin said in a loud tone.

    At least, the era of aerospacerocket is over.

    If you can reduce the cost of aerospace from tens of millions of USD to 1,000 USD, who else will pay for aerospacerocket? Even X-space’s Falconrocket cannot be cheap enough. It is foreseeable that mastering Space Elevator’s Star Ring Trading will undoubtedly take over all the global satellite launch projects…At least commercial satellite launch projects.

    “It’s too early to say this.”Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile and paused. Then he said, “Space Elevator has only completed the first phase of the project, which is the base of Space Elevator. The rest of the space needs to be handled by Aerospace Technology Center and Future Heavy Industry. Together to complete.”

    Unlike all architectures on Earth, the “Babel Tower” leading to the synchronous orbit was built from the top down. The space station of the synchronous orbit was built first, and then the construction of the terminal balancer and the 36,000-kilometer orbit began.

    This means that all construction materials must be launched to the Outer Space through the rocket. Regardless of the cost of the material itself, the cost of a rocket launch is not a small number. This is exactly why Jiang Chen began acquiring private aerospace companies and developing the Star RingN series rockets last year. Only by launching the launch cost to a relatively reasonable price, Future Group has the conditions to build Space Elevator.

    As early as last year, Jiang Chen was preparing this for this moment.

    “All the technical information about the space elevator has been developed, and the next thing we have to do is to move it out of the drawing.” I will not set an upper limit for the budget of the entire project. Your only mission is to complete this tower for me. ”

    After a pause, Jiang Chen smiled.

    “If it does, you and my name will all go down in history.”
