A total of 18 members of the FASTER project team signed a confidentiality agreement, and under the leadership of Shen Qi, they added the "Light Point Project", which mainly studied the C scheme of the reflective satellite fluid planar membrane.

The reason for signing the non-disclosure agreement is that the "Project Light" is still in the confidential stage.

However, absolute secrecy is difficult to achieve, after all, there are satellites of other countries in the sky.

Not long ago, CNN reported on a television program that "China has built 50 million kilowatts of reflective satellite solar power stations":

Satellite images show that more than 100 square kilometers of microcrystalline silicon thin-film cells have been built in northwest China, and supporting facilities to maintain microcrystalline silicon thin-film batteries are spread throughout northwest China, and more than 100,000 Chinese scientists, engineers, construction personnel and soldiers have participated in the project. And that's just the ground work. ”

The core part of the program is in geosynchronous orbit, and China is expected to launch more than 100 special satellites to reflect the sun's light. ”

"These satellites and the advanced equipment they carry will precisely focus sunlight on microcrystalline silicon thin-film cells on the ground with hundreds of times the efficiency of natural light, so as to achieve efficient and controllable solar power generation. ”

"A 50 million kilowatt solar power plant was once an unimaginably crazy plan, but now China is implementing it. ”

"We all know that it is not original to China to generate electricity on the ground by reflecting sunlight from satellites. ”

"The U.S. Department of Energy did something similar 25 years ago, and they're the ones who really created it. ”

"It's just that because of financial problems, the idea of the U.S. Department of Energy has not yet entered the engineering development stage. ”

......

CNN can become one of the world's top 500 companies because of their professionalism and efficiency.

It can be said that CNN's report on the "Light Point Project" is relatively objective.

So how did CNN get this objective evidence?

First of all, CNN has a large number of satellites in geosynchronous orbit, not just communication satellites.

Second, CNN mentioned that the concept of the "Point of Light" was originally conceived by the U.S. Department of Energy and American scientists.

Through satellite observation and reasonable speculation by American experts, CNN gave important data such as "50 million kilowatts of installed capacity", "more than 100 square kilometers of microcrystalline silicon thin-film battery packs", "more than 100,000 builders", and "more than 100 reflective satellites" on the Chinese side.

Sure enough, it is professional enough, and the speculation of CNN and American scientists is quite reliable.

After Shen Qi saw the CNN report, he didn't show too much nervousness.

Americans can speculate on macro data such as "50 million kilowatts", "100,000", and "100 pieces", which is expected by Shen Qi.

This is by no means a traitor within the party, but the Americans have the strength.

After all, it was the Americans who first came up with the idea of "reflecting satellites to concentrate sunlight to generate electricity on the ground," and it is not difficult for them to deduce some of the macroscopic features of the "light spot plan" through satellite shooting data.

If the specific technical data of the "Light Point Project" are in the hands of foreign groups, it means that there are traitors within the party.

Fortunately, this did not happen, and it will never be allowed to happen.

According to CNN's report, the "Point of Light Project" has become semi-public in the world.

The attitude of the country and Shen Qi is that foreign media like to report how to report, let's build people's livelihood projects on our own land, this is not a violation of international law, right?

Yes, that's right, the original author of the grand concept of "concentrating sunlight on the ground by reflecting satellites to generate electricity on the ground, and asking the sun for an inexhaustible supply of efficient and environmentally friendly new energy" was the Americans.

We must pay our highest tribute to the original conceptualists, who were Professor Sam Lanzaard of Caltech and Mr. Isaac Karanovic, Senior Technical Advisor at NASA.

However, conceptual ideas on paper cannot solve the actual problems of people's livelihood.

The more than 13,000 technology patents associated with this grand idea are all in the hands of the Chinese government.

Empty talk misleads the country, but hard work prospers the country.

It took the real Chinese nearly twenty years to turn a crazy and somewhat unrealistic theoretical idea into a huge project that can be seen and touched.

Shen Qi has been the executive chief scientist of the "Point of Light Project" for some time, and he has been staying in the capital and has not yet been to the northwest ground base.

Choosing an auspicious day, Shen Qi arrived at Dunhuang Airport by special plane accompanied by Director Zhao Mingze, Chief Engineer of You Junfeng and Chief Logistics Commander Zhao Mingze. Shen Qi's driver and bodyguard, Second Lieutenant Wu Jianjun, went with him.

The general headquarters of the "Point of Light Project" was set up in the capital, and the command post of the northwest base was set up in Dunhuang.

From the moment he got off the plane, Shen Qi felt a solemn fighting aura.

Shen Qi and his entourage were not received by leaders of the Dunhuang administrative department and science and technology department, but by Colonel Cheng, an officer of the Western Theater.

The appearance of Colonel Cheng confirmed CNN's speculation, and sure enough, there were Chinese soldiers involved in the "Light Point Project".

After Wu Jianjun saw Colonel Cheng, he immediately saluted a standard military salute.

Soldiers should take the initiative to salute superior officers, party and state leaders, or party and government officials whose positions are higher than themselves.

Senior Colonel Cheng responded to Wu Jianjun with a military salute, and he, Shen Qi, Chief Engineer You, and Director Zhao used a handshake ceremony.

"Chief Engineer You, Director Zhao, we meet again. Academician Shen, you are very welcome to the Northwest Base to guide the work. Please get on the bus. Colonel Cheng carried out the reception work concisely and concisely.

A convoy with special license plates left Dunhuang Airport, and military helicopters circled above the convoy.

There were six people sitting on a certain seven-seater military vehicle, the driver was Colonel Cheng's driver, Wu Jianjun was the co-pilot, Shen Qi and Cheng were in the second row, and Director Zhao and Chief Engineer You were in the third row.

"This time I came to the northwest for research, and I was bothered by Colonel Lao Cheng. On behalf of the capital research team, Shen Qi first thanked Colonel Cheng for his thoughtful arrangements.

"Academician Shen is a national hero in the field of scientific research, and it is my duty to serve you and the capital command headquarters. Colonel Cheng said politely.

The main responsibilities of Senior Colonel Cheng and the troops under his leadership in the "Point of Light Project" are: 1. To protect the ground facilities, technical experts, and operators of the "Point of Light Project", and in the event of an attack by foreign enemies or violent elements, they must swear to defend the safety of state property, technical experts, and the people. 2. Assist the technical engineering team to complete the construction of the ground facilities of the "Light Point Plan".

To completely destroy the ground facilities of the "Point of Light" and eliminate the technicians and construction personnel of the "Point of Light" project, at least one elite division of armed forces is needed.

Such a large-scale armed attack is almost impossible in China today.

No enemy would dare to do this, and it would inevitably lead to a world war.

Regardless of whether the enemy has the courage to attack us or not, China's military deployment is indispensable. This is also the reason why Colonel Cheng is here.

Shen Qi's mood was a little complicated, first of all, he felt a full sense of security. Secondly, he felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was greater. The state has invested an astronomical amount of manpower, material and financial resources in the "Point of Light Project", and this magnificent project can only succeed and cannot be allowed to fail.
