After losing Yang Miqian, give her a Gundam to repay the debt

The entire Ministry of Defense office was as silent as death!

Waves of depressive atmosphere continued to float away!
No one wanted to face what was happening in front of them, or even think about it.

After all, they can't even return to the moon now!
A moon village has been built opposite!

Moreover, this moon village will be expanded!

Not to mention, the other side’s nonchalant attitude towards the Moon Village project!

That would be even more unacceptable to them! It’s even more unbearable!
After a long, long time.

The top minister of the Ministry of Defense’s face was as dark as water and he said:
"For the time being... we can only wait and see! Apart from that, we can't do anything else!"

"However, we must not take it lightly! We must pay close attention to the development of aerospace! Now... it mainly depends on the area they expand!"

"If the area they expand is not too large, then we can continue to maintain the previous plan! If the area they expand is too large...then our plan will have to be changed!"

"Then we must rethink whether there is any problem with our development strategy! Last time, we allocated some funds to aerospace."

"But that is based on our previous deployment for the current world's aerospace level! Whether it is enough or not...it's hard to say!"

"If our estimate of the current level of aerospace technology and industry is wrong...then we will have to reconsider the funds we allocate!"

As the top official of the Ministry of Defense, no one understands the current situation better than him.

If the expansion area opposite is not large, they can deceive themselves!
But if the expansion area opposite is too large, then even if he can deceive himself, he can't deceive the netizens in their country, let alone the Supreme Council!
Hear what the top minister of the Ministry of Defense just said.

The whole office was silent.

Everyone looked at each other and found that each other's eyes were full of solemnity!

Almost everyone in this room has a sad expression!

Others may not understand what the top official of the Ministry of Defense just said, but as staff members of the Ministry of Defense, how could they not understand it?
This also means...

Once the other party's technological level exceeds their imagination, they will continue to increase investment in manpower and material resources in aerospace!

That means that their construction funds for many other infrastructures will decrease again!
After all, the total amount of money won’t change!
If too much money is spent on scientific research, it will inevitably mean that expenditures must be reduced in other aspects!

Everyone at the scene had a look of pain on their face.

Many people feel as if they have just drank a cup of extremely strong coffee, which is bitter and embarrassing!

Their funds have been quite tight recently!

If this continues, many of their fields will be affected!
In fact, even their infrastructure may no longer be able to maintain it!
Just when everyone is full of worries.

The person in charge of NASA suddenly remembered something and said:
"Do they...do they only have this one project? It shouldn't be the case! I remember they are currently working on many more projects than we are!"

"Not to mention those small projects that are not worth mentioning, but only those projects that are too big to be considered, there are five or six! Moreover, among these projects, there is also a super giant such as controllable nuclear fusion miniaturization technology. !”

"With so many projects going on at the same time... do they really have the ability to sustain the expenses of all the projects? Do they really have the ability to make all the projects go forward simultaneously?"

"I think... it should be impossible! This is completely impossible! This kind of project is a huge drain on both manpower and material resources!"

"With so many projects going on at the same time...it is difficult for their moon village plan to have such a special development! There is a high probability that it will just be a formality!"

"Small expansions are still possible! Large expansions... that is absolutely impossible! Even if we add the manpower and material resources of all our allies together, it is impossible to complete such a large expansion project!"

"So... maybe we don't need to be so nervous! Let's take a look first before talking! Don't make a decision too hastily! So as not to affect our previous development plans and fund mobilization!"

As the head of NASA, no one knows better than him how difficult it is to build a scientific research base on the moon!

That's the moon!
That's not Blue Star!

Moreover, this is a scientific research base! It’s not just about building a house!
Especially with so many projects happening simultaneously.

How could the other side allocate so much manpower and material resources to specifically carry out this project?
Especially... Among these projects, there is another top priority of this era!

It is a research and development project on miniaturization technology for controllable nuclear fusion!

This project should be the one that the other side pays the most attention to right now, bar none!

It is also the research and development equipment that currently consumes the most manpower and material resources!
With the consumption of this project, how much manpower and material resources can be invested in the construction of the moon village?
He can be very sure that the two words "expansion" opposite are definitely more promotional than actual!

After all, they have done this kind of thing before!
It is a very reasonable thing for the other party to do this!

Who doesn’t want to have a higher international influence? Who doesn’t want their scientific research project to sound better?

This is all for publicity! For a matter of face! Just for an image issue!

Not shabby!
Hear these words from the head of NASA.

Others at the scene also nodded silently and echoed in agreement:

"That's right! That's right! Yes, yes, yes! It seems...it's really true! It's really possible!"

"How difficult is it to build a forward base on the moon? It is another complex project! Is such a large and complex project so easy to complete? Is it just expansion?"

"Let's not look at the other side who looks calm and calm on the surface! But in fact... we still don't know how much effort it took to achieve this!"

"Let's not belittle ourselves! Don't be deceived by the other party's superficial appearance! This is probably... just a means of publicity!"

"After all, we often do this to promote things! Don't we? Since we can do it, others can do it too!"

"It's better not to scare yourself! Don't create unnecessary trouble for yourself! The most important thing for us now...is not to get into trouble!"

The entire Ministry of Defense office was instantly enveloped in a very relaxed atmosphere!

Even, occasionally you can hear some laughter coming from inside.

Although these people still haven't stopped smoking.

But it is completely different from the sad expression just now! Everyone looked at ease and enjoying themselves greatly.

…………

at the same time.

The other side of the blue star.

Various questions are constantly surging throughout the live broadcast room.

After hearing Jiang Chen's introduction and explanation just now, all the viewers were filled with curiosity.

Every audience member stared directly at the screen in front of them with a pair of big eyes.

Countless people were typing on the keyboard in front of them and asking questions in the live broadcast room.

"Brother Chen! Brother Chen! Then introduce, introduce to us! Tell us about this expansion plan! This time... how much area do we plan to expand our moon village?"

"To be honest! The current area... I feel is already very, very large! If we expand it further, it shouldn't be much expanded, right?"

"And, this time... if we expand this project again, how long will it take to complete it? Can it be done as quickly as this time?"

"I remember that this expansion project... seemed to have been completed in less than a month! If we continue to expand it, it should be impossible to complete it in such a short time!"

"However, there is nothing we can do about it! After all, the entire Moon Village is now much, much larger than before!"

"If we expand the area of ​​our lunar advance base this time... can it be double the area of ​​the current base? If not, can it be half?"

Everyone was full of curiosity at this time, and they were constantly making various speculations in the live broadcast room!

Everyone especially wants to know, if the lunar advance base is expanded this time, how many times will it be expanded to the current area?
The biggest explosion among them...is doubled!

The most talked about number is actually 50%!

To know!
Doubling the area may not sound like much!

After all, the last time this project was expanded, the area was doubled!

But the problem is...

The area that was expanded last time was doubled!

If the area is doubled this time, it will be equivalent to twice the area of ​​the last time!
This is a completely exponential rise!
Although there is no difference in the multiples of the two expansions, the areas of the two expansions are completely different!
Therefore, most guesses are more conservative!
Most are 50% guesses.

In addition, some people guessed 60% or 71%!

Of course!
There are also a small number, and the guess is still to expand the area by 100%!
It's not just the people in the live broadcast room who are full of curiosity.

Even Reba, Yang Mi and Liu Sisi in the live broadcast room now really want to know how much the lunar advance base will be expanded this time?

Eighty percent? Ninety percent? Or 100%?
Or even... maybe the expansion will more than double the current area?

For a while.

The whole world seems to have become quiet!
The entire Blue Star, the entire live broadcast room, and hundreds of millions of eyes seemed to be glued to Jiang Chen's body.

Everyone dared not even breathe, waiting for the answer that Jiang Chen was about to announce to them.

After hearing these people’s questions.

Facing the expectant looks of these people, Jiang Chen opened his mouth to explain:

"In terms of time, this expansion project is actually pretty much what you imagined! It is indeed much, much longer than the last expansion!"

"Probably... it will take at least two months! Of course! This is just a relatively optimistic estimate, and the actual project completion time is likely to be longer than this!"

"As for the expansion area... it is different from what everyone guessed! This time, our plan is to expand the area of ​​the current Lunar Advance Base by five times!"

"In this case... our lunar advance base will have many more functions than before! Due to the limited area, there are still many things that our lunar advance base cannot do!"

"Besides, our current area... is actually still relatively small! Calling it a moon village is still a bit reluctant!"

"But after the expansion project is completed, our lunar village... will probably become a veritable lunar village! It will become a real lunar village!"

This time, the expansion area discussed by Jiang Chen and some people from the Academy of Sciences was much, much larger than the previous one.

Naturally, it is impossible to successfully complete this project in a short period of time!

To know!
Although it only took less than a month last time, it only doubled the area of ​​the previous lunar advance base!

Now we need to expand the entire base by five times, which is equivalent to expanding the area ten times before!

Such a huge area, such a complex project...

How could this be accomplished in such a short period of time?

Simply re-engraving the previous Lunar Advance Base five times according to its appearance is already quite difficult!

Not to mention!

There are many things in this expansion plan that have never been seen before!
These things are definitely not something that can be accomplished simply by replicating them! This requires a lot of design, massive manpower, and material resources!
Even with a fully intelligent AI-assisted robot, it’s not that easy!

Considering the current level of science and technology and industrial strength.

This time is still a relatively reasonable time!

Of course, this is only for Jiang Chen and the others!

If it were for other scientific research institutions...then this would be a fantasy! It’s simply appalling! (End of chapter)
