Chapter 415 The Honeymoon Period Between China and the United States

On Lanai Island, Chen Yiran made a rather helpless phone call to the leaders of his hometown.

When facing the US, UK, and France, he remained quite composed. These three countries shamelessly claimed that they were forced to attend the meeting on aurora borealis and had no intention of sending aurora to the moon.

At present, only Aurora's technology offers some hope for colonization. Apart from Aurora's rockets, the payload capacity of other countries' rockets is still far from sufficient for lunar colonization.

Both Britain and France are eager to further cooperate with Aurora, and have even vowed that if Aurora could allocate a certain amount of resources to them, they would leave the EU in a heartbeat.

The US government leadership has once again made its stance clear: we have an election this year, and we hope to see the aurora borealis. The two sides have cooperated so well over the years; if a different party comes to power, things might get messy!

They didn't ask the aurora borealis to take any particular stance; they just hoped that Hawaii would support the Democrats.

Hawaii's political landscape is currently very distorted because no political party has been established, so theoretically, all officials in the parliament still represent the Democratic and Republican parties.

However, they are now basically ignoring orders and directives. They even elected a veteran like Catherine, who is not affiliated with any party and was a purely individual candidate who was elevated to the governorship.

Therefore, Hawaii's tendency is seen as the tendency of the aurora borealis in this election year, which is considered a very important indicator.

Chen Yiran handled all these requests very well.

But greetings from my hometown are really annoying.

Chen Yiran is easily swayed by gentle persuasion but not by force. The soft words from his hometown were too much for him to handle, so he slightly increased the proportion of people he was adjusting in Hong Kong.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yiran began to think about how to deal with this mess on the moon.

Although he could completely ignore everyone and just take it over without any apparent problem.

But he always had a very interesting idea that he wanted to put into practice.

【You have such a twisted sense of humor! Does this really make any sense?】

"Of course we have it! From a legal standpoint, this is the most legitimate solution, isn't it?"

[This is actually completely untenable, but it's certainly interesting, and I agree with doing it this way. However, Britain, France, and Russia don't seem willing to compromise; what if they keep arguing?]

"Tell me about the AI ​​rebellion on the moon. We can't control the moon anymore. If they're so capable, let them attack it. Stop talking nonsense on Earth."

【(。・∀・)ノ゙ As expected of you! That's a great idea! And I have to point out something: Russia is becoming increasingly outrageous. At least Britain and France would call to contact us, but Russia hasn't contacted us at all!】

"It's fine, we can just not include him in the subsequent talks."

A week later, before the moon's lingering heat had even dissipated, another bombshell dropped.

High-ranking officials from both China and the United States gathered in Hawaii to discuss with Chen Yiran the subsequent issues concerning the moon, as well as future social issues and even social order.

This arrangement was personally orchestrated by Chen Yiran, and both China and the United States were very enthusiastic.

From the US perspective, Lucien was very excited about being able to reach an agreement with China to divide the world before stepping down.

Even if he can't compare to Roosevelt and Reagan, this successful dialogue with China should at least put him in contention for third place in history.

China is also very interested in this. China and the US are each other's largest trading partners, and their confrontations are all due to interests. If they can reach an agreement and reap the benefits of the whole world together, wouldn't that be wonderful?

On a normal timeline, the trade confrontation between China and the United States had already begun to emerge at this stage. This was not because the US government was neurotic and simply disliked China; it was entirely driven by self-interest.

However, the appearance of the aurora completely reshaped the world's economic center. Oases caused the world's center to begin shifting towards the virtual world.

The increasing number of people adjusting their lives has completely changed the structure of society. If it weren't for the Oasis attracting the attention of most people, overcapacity would have already severely damaged the world economy.

Add to that the potential for black velvet to cause significant changes in global energy in the future, and both China and the US are feeling somewhat uncertain about the future.

At this point, if an alliance can be formed, the chances of success will be much greater.

This is not a fantasy. This is not the first time that China and the United States have formed an alliance. In fact, in the 1980s, China and the United States were once the two closest countries in the world.

That honeymoon period was far more extravagant than many people imagine.

American political legend Henry Kissinger described it as an unspoken alliance, and Chinese scholars agree that the two sides maintained an alliance or quasi-alliance throughout the 1980s.

At that time, China's export control was Category V, which meant it was on par with countries like Japan, the UK, and Australia.

Although the Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (COCOM) is still blocking them, the United States, as the leader of the West, can easily make exceptions.

In 1984, the United States even agreed that Grumman could provide 24 F-14 Tomcat fighter jets, and would sell the complete aircraft at will, except for the technology.

It wasn't even the old Model A; it was an upgraded version with the latest engine, and it was also equipped with an AIM-54 Phoenix missile.

The sales efforts at the time were so exaggerated that it was almost heartbreaking.

A delegation of Chinese aviation experts, led by renowned Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (CAC) aircraft designer Tu Jida, arrived at Grumman's Calvinden factory on Long Island, New York. F-14 chief designer Pelehach accompanied the delegation throughout the visit, and Grumman CEO O'Brien personally received them.

The openness was completely unreserved. The Chinese delegation visited the final assembly workshop, microwave anechoic chamber, and flight test station. They even had a flight demonstration by a U.S. Navy pilot. The Chinese delegation was free to look around and take photos throughout the workshop.

In an effort to curry favor with the Chinese side, Grumman even gifted them T-shirts and armbands embroidered with the words "Red Tomcat," and designed a team emblem featuring a cartoon tiger leaning against the August 1st Army emblem, with a Chinese slogan that was very characteristic of the era below: "Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth."

There was even an F-14 with a Chinese-style paint scheme on site, with the August 1st Army emblem painted on its tail.

However, due to China's lack of funds, the notoriously delicate and difficult-to-manage F-14, and the fact that the other party was unwilling to sell all the technology, the deal fell through.

Even so, China still managed to acquire gas turbines and avionics, both of which were pioneering achievements from scratch. The AN/TPQ-37 artillery locating radar was even deployed by China and the US around the same time.

The most legendary example is the Black Hawk helicopter. In 1983, at Lhasa Gonggar Airport, top helicopters from various Western countries came out in droves to test their high-altitude performance.

The Black Hawk reached a cruising altitude of 7315 meters and was eventually chosen by China because only the Black Hawk could fly normally on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, while all other helicopters could not even reach 4 meters.

In order to bypass COCOM, the United States sent what was claimed to be a civilian model, but it was actually a reinforced military version with better power than the Black Hawk used by the United States itself.

Although many problems arose during the delivery of these weapons, that was also the reason why China later did not agree to form an alliance with the United States.

China ultimately chose not to form an alliance with the United States and remained neutral.

But now, in this era of increasingly rapid social change, and with the aurora borealis acting as a matchmaker.

A convergence between China and the United States has become a possible option.

At least, another honeymoon period has begun.
