The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

"You are right. This matter is indeed risky, but after the risk there may be opportunities. I will take this plan to President Baip and his team to have a look. You should be ready to start construction."

"It will take more than a day or two to start up a backup satellite. We have to rush to the satellite launch center. You will have to continue to work hard!"

"Wait for my news. If the plan is approved, I will arrange for you to go there as soon as possible. Next, you should have a good rest and recuperate your physical and mental strength."

Minister Tim instructed. Whether this plan can be adopted depends mainly on the ideas of other leaders, especially the decision of President Baip.

It is likely that they will have to vote at that time, and his opinion alone cannot represent everyone. The Conservative Party will probably make a fuss for a while, and they are unlikely to accept this plan.

But after listening to the explanation of the Minister of Space Affairs, he also felt that launching the backup satellite was the best and only option at present.

No matter what the outcome is, if there is really no other solution, we have to choose this method in the end. We can't let the United States continue to be in such chaos.

"It's not hard, this is what we should do. As scientists, we should stand up at times like this and contribute to the United States!"

"That's right. We don't feel tired at all. On the contrary, we are full of energy because we are not only representing ourselves, but also the entire country."

"At this critical moment, we can't care about the environment. Everyone is doing their best, including Minister Tim. You are really working hard!"

"Don't worry, we will adjust our status at any time. Once we receive the notice, we will immediately start working and make sure the United States returns to its original state!"

"Come on, the United States will win! We will definitely get through this difficult time. This is just a temporary test. After we defeat it, we will gain more!"

Everyone was shouting excitedly. Although no one knew what each person was really thinking, they were all extremely united at this moment.

At a time like this, it would be really stupid not to show my loyalty and try to leave a good impression in front of Minister Tim!
Those who knew the situation, after listening to the speech by the Minister of Aerospace, felt a little uneasy, but they had no choice but to go ahead with it. There was no other way. This was a plan that was forced out and was not very good, but they had to show a firm attitude!

"Very good, you are better than I thought. Wait for notification. I will let you know as soon as there is progress."

Minister Tim was quite touched. He originally thought that the proposal put forward by these people was stupid and not worth presenting.

But now he has changed his mind. He feels that these scientists have at least ruled out other possibilities and confirmed the necessity of this plan.

Yes, even if they think of a backup satellite, they will not bring it up directly. It will take a long time to discuss whether to use it or not. It will not be so clear.

With this report, Minister Tim feels that the plan is much more likely to be adopted and it can also shut up the Conservatives.

This is the best solution reached after collective discussion by the country's top scientists. They are researching in this field, and if there are other methods, they must know about it.

In this way, those who want to oppose cannot come up with a suitable solution, cannot solve the problem, and cannot take responsibility, so they can only agree.

The reality is that they don’t have many choices, and solving the problem as quickly as possible is the most important thing and the first thing to consider.

Minister Tim hurriedly left the computer room with the heavy report. He got up early to get the report because he wanted to hold a meeting earlier to determine the final plan.

Now thinking about it, his decision was crucial. Launching a backup satellite was no trivial matter. The headquarters did not have the conditions for the launch, so they had to hurry up and finalize the plan. Then the experts from the Ministry of Space could go back and prepare to launch the backup satellite.

The report was more than ten pages long, with some other possibilities added in the middle. All the analysis that could be thought of was written down, but it was not too long-winded.

If you don’t have the patience to read it carefully, you can jump directly to the end to read the conclusion, which also explains why the backup satellite needs to be activated.

These contents were rushed out by the two ministers one or two hours before dawn. I have to say that researchers are really good at writing academic papers. They write reports as papers, and they are constantly inspired. Each person writes a part, and they quickly finish tens of thousands of words.

Then give it to others to review, add whatever they want to add, and finally print out the final draft.

"Is it really okay for us to say this? Something similar to a black hole has just been discovered and has not yet been confirmed..."

"If we make a wrong analysis and fail to solve the problem, then everything will be ruined. What will we do then?"

"There's no other way. If I don't say this, how can Minister Tim believe it? If he doubts it, how can others believe it?"

"There is nothing wrong with the plan itself, and it can indeed solve the current situation, but there are too many variables, and no one can guarantee what will happen in the future!"

"Don't worry about it. Everyone, take a rest and get ready. We will most likely launch a backup satellite next. There's no need to think about it. Minister Tim's expression says it all."

"It's useless to think so much. If nothing works, then the two departments will be held responsible. There's nothing we can do about it. We were pushed out here and have no choice!"

Everyone has different ideas. Some are worried and scared, as if they have already anticipated the result. Some are more optimistic and don't want to guess what will happen next. They think that they are just scaring themselves and there is no other benefit except anxiety.

As I said before, the reason is not important, and it doesn’t matter whether the conclusion is right or wrong, as long as it can solve the problem at hand.

On the other side, in the largest conference room at the headquarters that could accommodate thousands of people, dozens of leaders were sitting there. They were all ministers of various departments, headed by Baip, and they could be said to be a group of people who held the highest power in the United States. Their decisions would directly affect the future direction of the United States.

Before Minister Tim returned with the thick report, the conference room was already bustling with activity, with ministers discussing the current situation and the Ranger Squad. They were mainly divided into two camps, the Conservative Party and the Progressive Party, blaming each other for a series of recent events.

"I've said long ago that we shouldn't send the Ranger Team to that sea area. The joint forces have already suffered a great defeat, but you are still blinded by the interests. Now, everything is messed up..."

"Do you know how much loss the United States is facing now? In all the years since the founding of the country, we have never encountered such a bad situation. If you hadn't insisted on your own way, how could it have become like this?"

"Those who swore that nothing would happen, shouldn't they step up and take responsibility now? If anything happens to the Ranger Squad, how will you explain it?" "Why did we lose the signal at this very moment, and it's a nationwide problem? This is retribution! You shouldn't have chosen to attack that base before!"

"What's the point of pushing the Ministry of Technology and the Ministry of Aerospace to the forefront now? Can they solve the current predicament? Are we the only ones who can rely on them to find a solution?"

The ministers of the Interior, Treasury and Justice departments have severely criticized previous actions. They are core members of the Conservative Party and often organize others to attack the Progressive Party. They are quite eloquent.

This time, such serious problems have arisen, and they have held on to these points tightly. In their view, the current difficulties are all caused by the wrong decisions made by the advanced parties.

The Minister of Finance, in particular, had a gloomy face since he entered the door, his eyes flashed with rage, and his inner anger was obvious.

The consequences of a series of decisions made recently by the headquarters have almost advanced the budget by several years, leaving no room for maneuver.

He had to reject countless budget requests every year and rack his brains to barely balance the income and expenditure. But now, everything has exploded!

In the next few years, he won't have to look at those applications anymore because there is no extra budget to develop new projects, and some projects may even be suspended due to lack of funds.

There is nothing we can do about it. Take a country next to the United States for example. It took them nearly a hundred years to build a museum, and it has not yet been completed due to insufficient budget.

What's even more ridiculous is that the relevant departments are openly hoping for donations and expect to complete the entire project within the next fifty years.

This practice was ridiculed by almost everyone on the international Internet. It was so inefficient that it was shocking. Even the people in the country felt ashamed.

The Secretary of the Treasury is troubled by the thought that many important projects in the United States may have to be suspended. You know, the American people don't care about the specific reasons, they will only accuse the Ministry of Finance of "lack of ability" and "corruption."

In fact, this was not something he could decide. Take the previous joint military exercise for example. Lord Baipu and the Advanced Party decided to invest all the budget borrowed from Kyushu into it. When he heard this decision, his eyes went dark and he almost fainted on the spot.

This is ridiculous! The finances were already very tight at the end of the year, and many performance bonuses could not be paid. I finally borrowed some money, but ended up putting it all into military operations.

You know, in addition to military operations, areas closely related to the people, such as education, people's livelihood, medical care, and transportation, require a lot of financial support.

However, this one decision caused the entire budget to go completely into deficit, leaving no extra money to be invested in other areas.

In this way, there is no other way to fill these budget gaps in the short term except to squeeze more money out of taxpayers. But this is not a smart solution and will only further intensify the conflict with the people!
I thought this was bad enough, but it turned out to be just the beginning. Disasters continued to come, and the joint military exercise failed completely. The troops sent out were almost annihilated, and the latest warships and fighter jets had a damage rate of up to 99%.

They can't even be put into use anymore, which means that the military operation did not achieve any expected results, but instead suffered a loss of 100% or even more.

Then the Ranger Squad was dispatched, but they were trapped in that sea area, facing the threat of bad weather at any time, and the warship equipment completely failed. The result is imaginable, even the most optimistic people cannot guarantee what the outcome of the Ranger Squad will be!

Faced with this total denial, how could the Advanced Party sit still and wait for death? They seemed particularly calm. After all, they had Lord Baip and Minister Tim backing them up.

If they were on their own, they would certainly not be able to make those important decisions, such as insisting on attacking the base. The responsibility behind it is too heavy for anyone to bear.

To be honest, Mr. Baipu's ideas coincide with those of the Advanced Party. They use the majority rule and veto power to ensure that all decisions can be implemented smoothly.

Now they heard these "absurd" and "biased" words of venting their anger, and they naturally could not accept them. The ministers of the Ministry of Energy, the Ministry of Defense, and the Ministry of Security could not help but refute them.

"The attack on the base was a unanimous decision made by everyone. How come it has become the responsibility of certain departments now? Didn't you also covet the arms from the arms dealers of Kyushu?"

"You know, whoever takes over the base will have the power to dominate. Haven't you seen the power of those arms with your own eyes? The arms dealers of Kyushu are simply unwilling to cooperate with the United States!"

"He explicitly rejected all our invitations and even directly humiliated our contacts. Are we just going to watch other forces trade with arms dealers and become stronger?"

"Some people may not have seen the power of those devices, but I can tell you that with those weapons installed, we can directly crush our opponents at the same level. Ordinary teams can even leapfrog against elite forces!"

At this point, many people present gasped. They had indeed heard about the power of the Kyushu arms dealers' equipment, but they had no direct experience. If it could allow ordinary troops to fight against elite soldiers, wouldn't it mean that with these external forces, the entire country's military team could become elite?

This level of power is indeed enviable. If the base is not taken down, the United States will suffer an absolute blow militarily in the near future.

The Conservatives could not help but feel frightened, but they could not admit the other party's point of view now. They could not refute it from this angle, so they had to find another way.

"That being said, your decision did not lead to the successful capture of the base. Instead, it put the United States in a difficult situation."

"Forget about strengthening our strength. This crisis is enough to set the United States back several years in all aspects!"

"Shouldn't you reflect on whether you are too radical? Isn't there a better way? After the joint military exercise failed, you shouldn't immediately send the Ranger team to take risks."

"To be honest, we shouldn't have rushed out in the first place. Can't we let other countries go first? You are just afraid of being at a disadvantage if you go too late. This idea is too stupid!"

"In short, the current situation is all your fault. It is your rash actions and greed that have caused chaos in the entire United States!"

Conservative ministers quickly adjusted their strategy, continuing to attack the actions of the progressive party from the perspective of efficiency and holding them accountable.

At this time, what was Lord Baip, the real behind-the-scenes man who held the veto power, doing? He sat in the first seat, seemingly not participating in the dispute between the two parties, but actually in a daze.

He knew better than anyone who was truly responsible for this situation, and he didn't want to face this fact.

Just kidding, if he intervenes, the topic will probably shift to himself in the end. Is he going to let both parties accuse him in a roundabout way? (End of this chapter)
