Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 147 Never a Peaceful Day
Even though he was inside the base, Jiang Yang could imagine what the outside world looked like at that moment.

From this moment on, everyone's life was put on pause.

All previous life plans, whether it was taking a round-the-world trip, finding a job and working hard for a while to save money to buy a car, or preparing for pregnancy and raising several children, etc., were all forcibly canceled.

Everything must give way to one thing.

end.

If we survive this apocalypse, life can hopefully continue. If we don't, then all hope is lost.

Boundless fear and panic spread rampantly in every city, but ultimately did not escalate into chaos and a collapse of order.

Decades of continuous crisis education finally played a decisive role at this moment.

Almost everyone's instinctive reaction is to pay attention to the World Government, to see what arrangements the World Government will make next, how it will fight against the apocalypse, and... what role they can play in this process.

Jiang Yang closed the webpage on his computer and sighed softly.

Unfortunately, while the apocalypse can be revealed, one's own existence and the ability to cycle cannot be disclosed.

The world government is unable to let the people know that there is a chance to start over.

In some ways, this situation is actually beneficial: if people know that there will be a second and third life if this fight against the apocalypse fails, their hearts will undoubtedly be more stable and their unity will be further strengthened.

Because it means hope. Even if you are destined to die in this life, there is still hope in the next.

But this is not a good thing for Jiang Yang and the world.

The simplest point is that every time someone tries to survive an apocalypse, there will inevitably be sacrifices; it's impossible to be perfect without paying a price.

Just like the last apocalypse, people who collapsed at their posts for various reasons, and the astronauts who perished on the moon.

Without knowing Jiangyang's recycling ability, the sacrifices were simply sacrifices, the relatives accepted the situation, and the rest of the population respected, remembered, and paid their respects to him—everything was harmonious.

But if we knew about Jiang Yang's ability to circulate, then...

Why were our relatives the ones who sacrificed themselves? Why were others able to survive?

If there are many victims, their relatives may even unite to form a force and take all extreme measures, including assassination, to try to kill Jiang Yang, start over, and change the established fact that their relatives have sacrificed themselves.

But surviving the apocalypse always involves sacrifice. Ultimately, the families of the victims will form a deep conflict with those who survived, eventually tearing the world apart.

The world will never have peace.

Therefore, Jiang Yang's affairs must be kept secret. Thus, people in each generation must launch one attack after another against the end of the world when they have no way out, or at least they do not know that they have a way out.

Shaking his head, Jiang Yang turned his attention back to the lecturer on the screen in front of him.

……

"Our industrial production tasks will be very heavy going forward."

In the conference room, a middle-aged man with a stern face said seriously: "Not only are there emergency modification tasks for a thousand rockets, design, manufacture and launch tasks for a thousand satellites, and design, production and installation tasks for more than a million automatic monitoring stations, but also, most importantly, the construction of ground facilities for 500 ultra-deep well excavation bases."

The ion drilling equipment required for ultra-deep wells has not yet been developed, but preliminary work should begin now.

This includes several aspects: 1. The power supply system.

Each ion drilling rig is a major power consumer, consuming at least 500MW. Including all supporting facilities, the total power consumption is around 700MW. To allow for a margin of safety, the power supply system must be designed and built to meet a 1GW capacity requirement.

2. Inclined-stayed hoisting equipment. The maximum length of ion drilling equipment will exceed 2 meters, and with a diameter of 5 meters, its own weight will reach approximately 5 tons. Again, allowing for a margin of safety, these inclined-stayed hoisting devices must be able to withstand a weight of at least 8 tons and remain stable.

3. Large ground-based buildings such as ground installation workshops and liquid argon circulation workshops.

It is estimated that each ultra-deep well drilling base will require the construction of no less than 40 square meters of above-ground buildings.

4. Installation of large-scale refrigeration, pressurization, purification, and ventilation equipment.

This also involves a large number of special equipment, and the transportation and installation processes must be planned in advance.

5,..."

He rattled off a series of equipment and system names, his gaze sweeping across the faces of the attendees.

"Each system should take on the corresponding tasks in its respective field, and, based on its existing industrial strength, quickly formulate a production plan and submit it to the central system for overall coordination."

From this moment forward, a directory of all factories and production sites worldwide will be available to you. Whenever you have a need, you can send a requisition notice to any factory, requiring them to complete your required production tasks within a specified timeframe.

Meeting adjourned!

The meeting adjourned, and global leaders from their respective industrial sectors hastily departed.

Following this meeting, it is unknown how many subsequent meetings will be held within our own field, or how many tasks need to be assigned.

A vast network has been quietly laid out, connecting almost every corner of the world.

Jingle bell bell bell…

The red telephone rang. In the office, a well-to-do middle-aged man answered the phone, his expression suddenly turning serious.

"Yes, I am Lin Xing. Do you need our factory to produce a batch of GB-7365-Y steel? Yes, I understand. I guarantee that the task will be completed within 5 days."

From the moment that decision-maker gave his public speech announcing the end of the world, Lin Xing stayed in the factory office 24 hours a day.

Although their factory is not large, it belongs to the special steel smelting industry. Given the almost inevitable surge in steel demand, the requisition of their factory is a foregone conclusion.

Lin Xing did not object to this.

Although this will affect the factory's daily operations and business, even if there is no compensation afterward, what time is it now, and we can't worry about that now?

The only thing that surprised him was that the superiors' requisition request was to produce this kind of Y-shaped steel.

This is... this is a bit beyond our factory's production capacity...

But damn it, how could the Doomsday Project Command not know what our factory looks like?
In the early stages, a group of professionals came to the factory to investigate and cover up the situation. They knew more about the factory's details than the factory itself did.

Even so... the command center still decided to entrust the production of this batch of Y-shaped steel to us?

This seems to imply only one scenario.

The other factories are already operating at full capacity, and the demand for this batch of steel is too urgent.

Then there is nothing more to say.

We have to get this done, even if it costs us our lives.

"Old Qi, this is Lin Xing. Immediately notify all factory workers to return to the factory!"
