Musk smiled and said, "Dean, I'll explain it to you"

"You know the robotic arm of the space station, according to the latest data we have obtained in four years, the longer the robotic arm is used, the more the internal bearings will be damaged."

"We will conduct a careful laboratory comparison of the relevant parts later, and at the same time conduct special experiments, and we found that the internal structure of these bearings will change with the number of uses in the space environment."

"The structure can become very brittle, which was discovered by the Japanese first, and they are already working on this, and the bearings used in space are not so simple."

"However, there is no such situation on the small bearings of the lunar rover, which is very mysterious and very puzzling."

"I don't know the specific reason, in short, the use of deformation design in space, the use time of large bearings will be greatly shortened, and to a certain extent, there will be a direct collapse phenomenon."

"This is also the reason why large bearings are rarely used in space launchers today, and the spacecraft we are launching now have eliminated the design of large robotic arms"

"We won't revert to this design unless this issue is resolved"

"The deformation spacecraft needs a large cardan shaft, and even if it only deforms once, according to the design, this cardan shaft will become brittle and collapse directly after a period of time."

"This news is still top secret, and outsiders don't know about this at all" Musk explained, and Dean suddenly realized.

Dean nodded after listening to the explanation, and let out a long sigh, "If humans want to go to space, materials are the key."

"You are right, this is also what I admire Xu Ping'an, the Tianqi Advanced Materials Research Institute is the source of his confidence, according to intelligence, he has a new generation of space high-tech materials in his hands"

"This plan is also a test plan, if he finds out that this problem is solved with a new generation of space materials, it will also be a good thing for us."

"In terms of space technology accumulation, no one is deeper than us, as long as the problem of materials is solved, space belongs to us, I am 100% sure of this," Musk said very well.

The others also nodded, convinced that the United States is far ahead of any country in the world in terms of space technology.

Time passed slowly, Xu Ping'an accompanied Isabella and the child for a period of time and returned to China, rested for two days and started to work, the first thing was to deal with Sun Wenbin's report.

The dispatched inspectors have already submitted a report, and after reading the report, Sun Wenbin was really surprised, he didn't expect that the marine pollution in the United States had reached such a level.

According to a series of data, the source of pollution has been linked to the garbage continent, and now the garbage continent is drifting towards the United States every day.

That is to say, if the pollution source of garbage on the mainland is not solved, don't think about solving the pollution in the coastal waters, this is a big project, and there is no huge capital investment, don't think about solving this matter.

Xu Ping'an thought for a while after reading Sun Wenbin's report, picked up the phone and called Sun Wenbin, and the phone was quickly connected.

"Boss," Sun Wenbin said directly.

"Report that I have seen it, you inform the Americans, let them send a person who can call the shots to come and talk to me about this"

"Tell them clearly, I will take over this matter from now on," Xu Ping'an said directly.

Sun Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief, it was very risky for him to talk about this matter, and now it was best for Xu Ping'an to take it over, "I understand, I will inform them immediately."

Xu Ping'an nodded, communicated with Sun Wenbin for a while and hung up the phone directly, without suitable conditions, Xu Ping'an would not accept this business, the risk is really not small.

After Sun Wenbin hung up the phone, he immediately found the personnel sent by the United States, conveyed Xu Ping'an's meaning, and the surroundings were also confused, and directly took out the phone to report to his superiors.

Two days later, he received a notice to return to China, and the above sent another person to talk to Xu Ping'an about the matter.

On this day, Chen Qingshan came to Xu Ping'an's office, first congratulated Xu Ping'an on getting a son, and then made fun of Xu Ping'an, and then took a sip of tea and started to talk about business.

"Ping'an, the pollution in China's coastal waters is also relatively serious, is your oceanographic research institute also going to the offshore to work for a while, the cost is easy to say, and it will be carried out according to international prices" Chen Qingshan said directly, Xu Ping'an paused for a moment.

"Mayor, why didn't you talk about this earlier, I wouldn't have talked to the Americans if you said earlier, just refuse to transfer people back, and now the United States plans to send heavyweights to talk to me about coastal ecological restoration."

"What do you want me to do, there are so many people," Xu Ping'an said with an uncomfortable expression.

Chen Qingshan also shook his head, such a coincidence, this is not a big deal, Xu Ping'an doesn't need to lie, what should I do, how can I restore it to the relevant departments.

"Can you directly refuse the contract from the United States?" Chen Qingshan said directly.

"I haven't signed a contract yet, but now I have entered the stage of high-level contact and negotiation, and I suddenly refused, and there is no reasonable reason to definitely be a storm," Xu Ping'an said helplessly.

Chen Qingshan nodded, he knew very well that the United States was urinating, and he would definitely not give up if he refused for no reason, and when the time came, it would be another open and secret fight, which would not be beneficial to both sides.

The two of them stopped talking, and after a cup of tea, Xu Ping'an spoke, "Let's wait for three days, and the representative of the other party will come over to discuss this matter in two days, I analyze that the possibility of reaching a deal is not high"

"Because the cost is too big, Americans definitely don't want to spend so much," Xu Ping'an said slowly.

Chen Qingshan paused for a moment and asked with questions, "Does offshore marine ecology cost a lot?"

"It's different over there, the pollution is very bad, because the pollution over there is connected to the garbage continent, and if the garbage continent is not solved, the coastal pollution cannot be cured."

"And if you want to solve the garbage continent, this requires a lot of money, and Americans may not pay for this money themselves," Xu Ping'an explained to some extent.

"Okay, I'll wait a few days here" Chen Qingshan knew in his heart.

The garbage continent is so big, it is really not possible to solve it with a small amount of money, so there is no need to worry.

The two chatted for a while and Chen Qingshan said goodbye, and after Xu Ping'an sent Chen Qingshan away, he returned home, not knowing how to drop, and couldn't see what the child was missing in his heart.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the commissioner dispatched by the relevant US departments had arrived in J City, and Xu Ping'an sent a vehicle to take Bryant to the office.

Bryant is the second person in charge of the relevant department, with great power, and the title of doctor of oceanography, who understands technology, and is the best person to come to discuss with Xu Ping'an.

While drinking tea, the two began to discuss, in front of Xu Ping'an's detailed data, Bryant couldn't refute, knowing very well that if he wanted to change the marine ecology, he had to solve the garbage continent.

"Xu, this cost is too big" Bryant quoted a very big price to Xu Ping'an, 15 billion US dollars to solve the problem of the garbage continent.

"Everyone understands people, you know very well the harm of the garbage continent, my cost is really not high, I need to invest a lot" Xu Ping'an unceremoniously refused the counteroffer.

"It is impossible for the country to accept this price, no country will pay for the garbage continent, it is not caused by our country," Bryant said directly.

"It's up to you, if you can find someone to share the money, it won't be difficult to solve the garbage continent" Xu Ping'an looked at Bryant and said meaningfully.

Bryant's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean .........."

"I didn't say anything, I didn't mean anything," Xu Ping'an said with a smile.

Bryant smiled and shook his head, many people explained to themselves when they came, Xu Ping'an is very cunning, be careful and be careful, now it seems that those people are really not wrong.

Xu Ping'an's lion opened his mouth with this kind of idea, the villain America was in charge, and the Apocalypse Marine Research Institute gained fame and profit, this calculation was really shrewd.

The two chatted for a while Bryant said goodbye, and will return directly to China tomorrow, there must be news within a week, after returning to the hotel, Bryant quickly wrote a report and sent it away.

Knowing the speed of the country, it will be one more day to send it out one day in advance, but this time, Bryant underestimated how much attention the bigwigs attach to the garbage continent.

The next day, before Bryant got on the plane, the report had already arrived on the tables of many bigwigs, and when Bryant got on the plane, the bigwigs began to meet and study it.

There is a suggestion in the report that is very much in line with the views of the bigwigs, this is not a matter for the United States alone, and other countries must also pay for the garbage continent.

In just one day, a plan was introduced, that is, the United States cannot pay for this matter, and everyone is responsible for the formation of the garbage continent and must share it.

The media first began to take action, began to guide public opinion, and things began to ferment slowly.

A few days later, Chen Qingshan looked at the report with a constipated face, the Celestial Empire was no exception, it was also on the list of Americans, and all trade routes to and from the United States were included.

The garbage continent is caused by the long running of garbage thrown by sea vessels, and the countries to which these ships belong cannot run, and every country must work together to solve this problem.

At the same time, the United Nations must also allocate some funds to clean up this garbage continent, and the UN Secretary-General replied very simply, you will arrange the funds after you pay the arrears, otherwise, there will be no financial support.

This reply made the Americans feel a pain, and you can't refute what they said, and a new round of international confrontation began, and this time the Americans made up their minds to solve this problem.

Xu Ping'an is not in a hurry, he will watch the play slowly, this is a matter of a big man, he is a small businessman, and he will never participate.

Chen Qingshan went to Xu Ping'an, the two discussed, and while it was still undecided, Xu Ping'an dispatched a team of people to start data collection in the offshore sea and presented a detailed report.
