Next chapter

On the southern shore of Anga Island, there is a special astronaut training site with an area of 7oo acres, occupying a corner sea cliff at the southernmost tip of Anga Island. One-third of the facilities are located on the road, while two-thirds are located in the sea.

The graphene compartment circles a tank covering an area of more than 4oo acres in the sea, and the seawater in this tank has no liquid exchange with the outside seawater, and the interior is divided into two blocks by the graphene compartment. The salinity of the seawater was changed so that the buoyancy of the seawater could cancel out with gravity to simulate the weightlessness of space and the low gravity of the lunar surface.

There are simulated space stations, space living quarters, real cabins, core modules, etc. The training program covers a total of 437 space activities, from spacewalks, to core module work, to operating a workboat to complete the recovery of space wreckage.

Of these, 1o3 are open to both Singapore nationals and foreign tourists, while the remaining 335 are open to the public and are only accessible to trained staff.

The venue is open to the public free of charge on Saturdays and Sundays, and in addition to parents and children coming here to play, there are also social practice activities organized by public schools, and only a small admission fee is charged. It is not only open to locals, but visitors to the new country can also pay an entrance fee of US$1oo through guò, and enter with a tourist passport to experience the feeling of weightlessness.

However, given the high price of spacesuits, only trained staff can be equipped. Others, on the other hand, can only experience the space environment using simulated spacesuits.

With a total investment of US$2.5 billion, the entire training center is funded by the Space Elevator Project Department as part of the Transwarp Trade Space Program, and can accommodate up to 8ooo visitors and trainers at the same time. In terms of size and openness, it is undoubtedly the largest space training center in the world.

The Future People Group has turned the aerospace industry from a private project into a national-level project. In addition to throwing a lot of money into the bottomless pit of space, it has also launched a series of policies to stimulate the exhibition of the space industry through its own influence in the political circles of the new country.

For example, the aerospace industry is tax-free, and the immigration policy for aerospace volunteers ......

If there is a country in the world with the highest proportion of astronauts, it will be a new country in a few years.

……

Liu Qingpeng, from Fujian, China, is one of the beneficiaries of the immigration policy for aerospace volunteers.

Three months ago, he was still working in Fujian, and he saw a special advertisement from the news pushed by Future People 1.o.

[Transwarp Trade Announces Moon Colonization Plan, Recruiting Volunteers from All Over the World!]

The ad reminded him of the Mars colonization plan announced by SPAE Space a few years ago, in the next 15 to 2o years, the American SPAE company plans to send 80,000 volunteers to colonize Mars, and volunteers will live a self-sufficient life on Mars......

Sounds fantastical.

After all, the colonization of the moon that is close at hand has not been completed, let alone Mars, which is 550,000 kilometers away from the Earth. According to the plan issued by SPAE-CORPORATION, each volunteer needs to raise $50,000 for their own travel.

It's not so much a Mars colonization project as it is a crowdfunding project with a difference.

However, this advertisement of Transwarp Trade made his eyeballs stick to the screen and couldn't move half a minute.

[All volunteers only need to sign a safety agreement and voluntarily dedicate themselves to the aerospace industry, and they can devote themselves to the aerospace project.] All project participants, after registering for Tongguò on the official website of Tongguò, can go to the embassy to apply for a special work visa to enter the country and join our cause. 】

[After arriving in the new country, the volunteers' accommodation and meals are provided by Transwarp Trading, and the training time is 8 hours a day, of which 4 hours are completed at the Transwarp Astronaut Training Center, the remaining 4 hours can be trained during sleep time through the guò phantom helmet, and the rest of the time can be arranged by the volunteers themselves.] Training times can be arranged by volunteers in consultation with instructors, and the training venue will be open all day. 】

In addition to room and board, Transwarp Trade will also provide volunteers with a minimum salary of $4oo per month, and after working for one year, they can change their work visas to immigrant visas, and the salary will also be increased to $6oo-oo according to different types of work. 】

[Note: If the contract is terminated in the middle of the contract, the visa of the terminator will be revoked and the person will be repatriated.] If the volunteer unilaterally terminates the contract after the regularization, he or she will bear a certain fine, and the company will decide whether to further investigate the liability for breach of contract depending on whether the circumstances are severe or not. 】

[The colonization plan has been confirmed to be the Moon, and the probes of the Star Ring Trade have been sent out first, which are used to explore the geological information of the moon and find large-scale reservoirs of lunar ice. 】

[The first step of human colonization of space, we look forward to your joining!]

To be honest, after reading this advertisement, Liu Qingpeng was moved.

The $4oo monthly salary is really low, after all, this is a volunteer, not a regular employee. What really impressed him was the work visa to the new country, and the eligibility to become a regular immigrant after one year!

Since the completion of Penglai City, Xinguo has tightened its immigration policy, and now it is not as easy as before to get a green card in Xinguo. The labor market is close to saturation, and in addition to the still shortage of high-tech talent, the country can provide for workers with less than high school education, and the new government is of course prioritizing the employment of its own people.

Originally, Lao Liu planned to work in Fujian to save some money, and then get a work visa and immigrate to the new country. In the end, he was a step too late, and when he applied for a visa, the embassy staff gave him two options.

Either go to Transwarp Trade to serve as a soldier, or provide proof of graduate degree or above.

This result really made him laugh and cry.

He can't endure that hardship as a soldier, and if he has a high education, he won't work in a factory, and if he can't meet both conditions, he can only say goodbye to the pleasant scenery of Koro.

Now, however, a new opportunity is in front of him: as long as he signs up for the Ring Trade's lunar colonization program, he can get the opportunity to immigrate to a new country as a space volunteer.

Although he always felt a little apprehensive about the immigration to the moon, who knows how many years it will be before the colonization plan is actually implemented. After working for a year, you can become a full-time worker, take 4 hours out of the night to train, sit part-time during the day or something, and earn three or four thousand dollars a month without any problem. Moreover, this Star Ring trade also includes food and housing, and you can save any money you make!

After making up his mind, he immediately filled in the information on the official website of Transwarp Trade and applied for the qualification of volunteer.

However, just as he closed the official website page, his gaze inadvertently swept over the upper right corner of the screen, on the statistics column of the number of applicants.

[Number of applicants: 451]

When he saw this number, Liu Qingpeng suddenly gasped, and his originally excited mood suddenly cooled by half.

With so many people signing up, will I really be chosen?(To be continued.) )8
