Give the universe a little earth shock

Chapter 37
The public demonstration meeting was held as scheduled and lasted for three days, during which the whole process was broadcast live.

The meeting was located in a mountain city, and all domestic scholars were present. Sun Xun and old man Sun from the Energy Institute of the base were invited as special guests.

The so-called special contract is to support the scene. The old man like a mechanic has several identities outside, an academician of the National Academy of Sciences, and the former director of the Energy Development Planning Institute.

Old man Sun was finally willing to take off his blue overalls and put on a suit and leather shoes. It is better to be formal for big occasions.

In fact, like old man Sun and Yuan Hui, they don't have to be so shabby. Among the academicians, it can be said that such a small group of people at the top of the pyramid can live comfortably if they don't join the starship.

But they feel that they are lucky. Compared with other people in the Cradle Project, at least they can show their faces occasionally and see the outside world without having to hide their names.

So they used most of their salary to subsidize the expenses of the base, such as the internal kindergarten and the facilities of the rest area, all of which were built at their own expense.

At this time, old man Sun sat quietly in the guest seat, without saying a word, his mind drifted back to the base long ago, wondering if it was time for the official ignition test, and whether the others had done the pre-test inspection properly.

The first day of the demonstration meeting was fairly restrained. Both sides talked about facts and presented data around their own opinions.

His buttocks were numb, but he still couldn't see the difference.

But from the second day onwards, people around the venue continued to stop talking, and drones in the shape of starships floated in the sky, with slogans behind them, "Destroy toys, destroy starships"

Although it will be shot down, the funny appearance of it when it crashed wearing the starship skin made the crowd of onlookers even more noisy.

The public demonstration meeting has turned into a starship critique meeting.

The scholars of the Progressive School were stunned. They more or less guessed that the starship came from China, but this kind of project is too high-level of confidentiality, so they can't get in touch with it.

The speech in his hand turned into a blank sheet of paper, and the other party followed the path of the debate, bypassing all the discussions, and pointed to the core of the problem, "If 'we' have a starship, is there a way to deal with the warning monument?"

The question is very cryptic, and everyone who understands it understands it. This question is for the bosses.

If there is no if at all, the starship comes from China.

Old man Sun couldn't sit still on his buttocks. From time to time, people looked at him, and the media's cameras also cut him here intentionally or unintentionally. He habitually emptied his chest pocket and emptied it.

I forgot, now I am wearing a suit with no pockets on the chest.

He really wanted to have a cigarette. After five years in the base, he was used to speaking in a straightforward way, and he didn't like such underhanded rivalries.

Of course, he couldn’t say anything about the starship. The cradle was built in the mountains not only to prevent aliens. Satellites passed by in low-Earth orbit day and night. The global strategic power is in a delicate balance. The starship The early exposure of this kind of big killer that can project the world at any time will cause a lot of unnecessary troubles.

So old man Sun used an excuse to go to the bathroom, hid in the innermost compartment and smoked a red plum beautifully.

The third and last day of the seminar.

The intensity of today's discussion was even higher. Old man Sun thought about it again, and it was no longer enough. Several special guests were dragged out of the discussion, one after another, and he was so busy that he didn't even have the time to release the water.

In a blink of an eye, it was [-]:[-] in the evening, and there were fewer problems. He finally had time to look at the hands on the watch, every few tens of seconds, every few tens of seconds.

His abnormality was keenly captured by the camera. On the other side of the ocean in New York, Bole sat in front of a giant projection screen, spinning the iced bourbon in his hand, "Come in and see what is on his dial."

The camera in the picture switches quickly, focusing on the polished quartz dial.

Nothing but ordinary hands that can't be found in ordinary hands.

The time is also correct.

"What is he waiting for?"

In the past 30 seconds, the old grandson checked the time again.

"Maybe it's waiting for the rest time. Old people have bad prostates."

Chang Chen, the newly promoted scientist of the Lighthouse Project, walked in from the door, picked up the amber wine bottle, pulled out the cork and smelled it, "Good wine, with a strong aroma of citrus peel and anise."

Bole didn't look back, put one hand in his pocket, his eyes fixed on the screen, "It took 30 seconds from when you walked in to when you finished speaking, and he checked the time twice."

"From 07:30 to 10 o'clock, his behavior averages once every 08 minutes, from 30 o'clock to 5:10, the average value rises to once every [-] minutes, and after entering [-] o'clock, the average value increases by one level every [-] minutes."

"He must be waiting for something."

Chang Chenman didn't care, "What can there be? The debate has reached an almost one-sided point. Nothing can save the starship. Trust me."

"I said, put away your pig-like arrogance."

Bole said calmly, "How is the plan going?"

Chang Chen took a sip of his wine and tried his best to suppress the anger in his throat. He knew that he was just a puppet, a puppet who looked like a genius.

After quickly adjusting his mood, he put away his previous slack, and said, "The tensile strength of the nanomaterials provided by the organization has greatly exceeded expectations. At present, the space elevators in the United States, Europe, and Africa are all under construction smoothly. The space elevators in the Pacific base The construction of the elevator has been completed, and the canopy that is put into production in advance will be completed by the end of the month.”

"Thanks to your classmate."

Bo Le raised his wine glass with his back to indicate that the space elevator project can make such rapid progress, thanks to Li Kaiyang's exoskeleton, which greatly improves work efficiency.

"grateful."

Chang Chen said something expressionless.

"So you don't want to know where the nanomaterials come from? And why the warning monument only goes after starships?"

"Do not want to."

Bole sneered, "Very well, I like people who don't like to ask questions."

As the time approached ten o'clock, Old Man Sun's mood fluctuated significantly in the live broadcast, and Bole had a bad premonition in his heart. The other party's attention seemed to be completely absent from the demonstration meeting. He no longer looked at his watch, but stared into the distance Sky.

"Perhaps waiting for the starship."

Chang Chen replied.

Of course Bole knows the most likely answer, but even if the starship is repaired, there is no way to face the pursuit of the warning monument. After all, it can only be a bluffing toy. It will only make the collapse come faster.

Ding dong.

While thinking, the hour hand on the screen points to ten o'clock in the evening, which is ten o'clock in the morning of the United States time.

The live broadcast screen suddenly dimmed, and the work lights responsible for lighting the venue flickered, and returned to normal after a while.

Bole hurriedly motioned for the screen to turn around, searching for suspicious objects in the crowd or the sky, but found nothing.

After ten o'clock, old man Sun stopped looking at his watch, and instead relaxed, leaning on the back of his chair.

"why?"

Bole was puzzled, the one-sided situation of the argumentation meeting remained unchanged, but why did he change.

He stood in front of the glass window overlooking New York Harbor, staring out at the empty harbor, lost in thought.

　Damn, I can't take it anymore, blow up the warning monument with one punch, blow up with one punch
