Chapter 468: A New Space Race Begins!

In 2018, Christmas, today a piece of news detonated the world. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Huaxia and Fantasy Group held a press conference to announce that the first transport spacecraft built for the space orbital elevator, Tenglong, has been completed and will be officially launched from the Wenchang Space Launch Center on January 1, 2019.

Tenglong will serve as the space part of the space orbital elevator, and cooperate with the Huaxia aerospace department to build a space station no worse than the International Space Station within two years, as a space connection point connecting the orbital elevator.

At the press conference, detailed data on the Tamron was released.

The carrying capacity alone is ten times more than that of the American space shuttle, and it can no longer be said to be an airplane, but a ship.

No wonder it was a transport ship.

What is the technology used, except for the people of the Fantasy Group and the Huaxia part, no one else knows, and the outside world has no way of knowing.

In less than a week, the United States announced the relaunch of the space shuttle program and invested 600 billion yuan in advance funds, and the space shuttle will return to the equipment ranks of the US Department of Space within five years.

Subsequently, Russia also announced the relaunch of the nuclear pulse spacecraft.

The space race has officially begun.

Tenglong is made by Fantasy Group, but it is just pulled into Huaxia.

This is Huaxia's request.

At the expense, Fantasy Group disclosed all the data about the Tenglong to Huaxia, including the design drawings, power engine, shell materials, etc., so to speak, handed over all the Tenglong to Huaxia.

And what Huaxia paid was about the launch power of the space base.

Huaxia did not agree to the Fantasy Group's request to build in Fantasy City, and instead let it choose an inconspicuous island between Xisha and Zhongsha, which did not even have a name.

Because this is a deserted island and there are a large number of islands and reefs around it, it was discovered hundreds of years ago and there are probably not more than a hundred people who have set foot on this island.

It is a reef archipelago with no value to be exploited.

Zhu Lan originally wanted to refuse, but after Zhu Lan investigated, he smiled.

This area belongs to the specially marked zone of the Red Queen, because underneath this reef archipelago is a huge vein of diamonds, and a large number of other ores are also associated with it.

Although this vein is at a depth of 1,700 meters under the seabed, with the deep-sea technology mastered by the Red Queen, it is possible to develop such a vein.

Diamond is also very popular in the aerospace industry anyway.

Over the years, in order to test some experiments, the investment in diamonds alone has reached 30 billion.

This is still the purchase funds on the surface, and the purchase of other things in the secret is no worse than the one on the surface.

Diamonds are not only used to witness the eternity of love, but also have great value in military and aerospace.

To put it mildly, 57 percent of the diamonds produced in the world each year are used in military and aerospace manufacturing and precision manufacturing.

The strength of a diamond can replace many things and complete some high-precision manufacturing work.

In the eyes of the state, a high-purity diamond is equivalent to a piece of steel that has been refined countless times.

It is a very rare strategic resource, and in the world, except for a few special diamonds, ninety-three percent of the diamonds are impure diamonds, which can only be good-looking, have no use value, there are many diamonds that can not see anything on the outside, but in the inside of the diamond has actually cracked countless marks, so defective diamonds have no value, in addition to good-looking!

And it's still in an earthquake-free area.

Since its discovery, there have been many mysterious legends here.

This area is known as the Sea of the Underworld.

Hundreds of years ago, it was called the Sea of the Underworld, the Hades of Beings, and the Sea of the Netherworld because it devoured too many lives.

Legend has it that this is the place where the Dragon King of the South China Sea is located.

The area around this sea has been a hiding place for pirates since ancient times.

And the red queen found that this seems to be a secret camp of the sky shark, and compared with the chart on the information found by the red queen, it is about within this sea area.

It is also home to many famous pirates.

And the red queen found that this sea area is actually a sea of nothingness.

To put it simply, this is a spatially unstable area.

Because of the instability of the space, the climate here is changing rapidly.

For example, from the other side of the sea, there is a huge typhoon, the wind force may reach the level of 15, but the spatial instability here will make the power of the typhoon disappear directly.

As a result, the surrounding sea is full of wind and rain, but here, the sun is shining.

In the same way, even if it is a sunny day, it will suddenly become a rainstorm day, because the space in this sea area will release the rainstorm weather that has been absorbed into it again and unsteadily.

The existence of multiple small dimensions has been generated here.

Because of the special environment here, Zhu Lan agreed to Huaxia's request and replaced it with Tenglong.

Zhu Lan has a better choice, but Zhu Lan has not forgotten what his original intention was.

Lose?

That's an outsider's opinion.

Being able to win here is a lot of money for Zhulan.

The resources of diamonds alone were enough for Zhulan to cope with the beginning of the initial space program.

"Prince Yohae, welcome!"

Zhu Lan personally greeted the prince of the sea who came to the Fantasy Group for inspection.

The expedition was secret, and the planes were all landed directly in Fantasy City, and arrived at the headquarters of Fantasy Group by helicopter.

"Zhu Dong, in your Huaxia words, I have heard of the name for a long time!" Yohai's Chinese is very good, it feels like a native of China, and Mandarin is very standard!

"Your Royal Highness Prince Yohai, you speak Chinese so well, I doubt that I am a foreigner, you are a Chinese!"

"Haha, this is what I spent a lot of people hiring millions of professors of Chinese to learn, to be honest, your Chinese is really difficult to learn, a hundred times more difficult than learning English!"

"It's been awarded, His Royal Highness Prince Yohai, haven't you also learned?"

Yokai smiled and didn't say anything.

"Here, please, Your Royal Highness!"

Zhu Lan took Yohai on a tour of the main departments of the Fantasy Group, the production of robots, the production of genetic potions, and the production of war models, including the production workshop of the Firmament-class high-altitude fighter jet, which has been discontinued.

Due to the military stoppage, the first generation of Sky fighters that had been put into production here was temporarily shelved.

The military also removed the aeronautical engineers stationed here, and it became a fantasy group.

And Zhulan did not lose anything, and the funds for the firmament level project had already arrived.

With just one modification, this place can become a manufacturing plant for Nightingale.

Now to visit Yohai, Zhu Lan has given a lot of sincerity.

Sure enough, when he saw the Sky Fighter, Yokai was very shocked.

The Sky Fighter is a highly confidential cooperation project between Fantasy Group and Huaxia, and the degree of secrecy is no worse than that of the Dapeng class.

There is not a shred of news from the outside world at all.

And now seeing the existence of such a high-altitude fighter, it is no wonder that the sea is not shocked.

"Because of some things, Huaxia unilaterally gave up the research and development project of this fighter, and it is still in a stagnation stage, if you don't give up, I don't dare to take you to see it, how about it?"

The Firmament Fighter, unless it is the third generation of the Firmament, otherwise, it is useless to Zhulan.

Now Huaxia has given up the first generation of the firmament, and the second generation of the firmament is currently very ambiguous, not nodding, not denying, just dragging it on.

Zhu Lan also didn't want the firmament to be buried in his own hands, and if possible, it was still possible to transfer the firmament to another collaborator.

This is also one of the important bargaining chips in the negotiation between Zhu Lan and John.

Naturally, Jokai also understood Zhu Lan's words.

To be honest, the existence of the sky actually moved the sea itself.

You know, such high-altitude modern fighters are still in service around the world, and they can be counted in one slap.

And at least three are American high-altitude fighters.

Even the Russian one, although it has not been retired, knows that it can no longer be used.

Since the beginning of the new century, high-altitude fighters have been re-developed by all countries, because high-altitude fighters can intercept ballistic missiles with their powerful speed.

This is a very important existence, at an altitude of 30,000 meters, flying at a speed of more than Mach 6, high-altitude fighters can easily catch up with the vast majority of the world's missiles and destroy them.

So far, all but one of the high-altitude fighters that can be used in the world are unmanned fighters.

Although unmanned fighters are also controlled, but remote control, sometimes, can not reflect too fast, and when there is a real war, people only need to scatter a large number of jamming signal devices in the sky, and the drone is useless, unless you can counter jamming.

A manned fighter is a completely different concept.

And the Sky Fighter is a manned high-altitude fighter.

The data now released to John is the Sky Fighter that flies at Mach 7.4 at its highest speed.

This is very scary, of course, if you want to withstand the maximum speed of flying, ordinary people will definitely not be able to.

And the standard Mach 3 and Mach 4 that was previously given to Huaxia has long since disappeared, and has now been raised to Mach 7.

"This way, please!" Zhu Lan also saw that it was difficult for John to make up his mind in a short period of time, and he did not urge, and smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Yohae.

"Next, I want to visit the underground research base of the Fantasy Group, the Azure Base, you can say that you are the first foreigner to enter the Azure Base openly."

"Oh, I'm getting more and more curious, and I hope what I see will satisfy me!"

"Naturally, you will be satisfied, please here, Your Royal Highness the Prince!"

Climb aboard the sightseeing bus and leave the factory area and head towards the entrance of the Blue Base.

And in the Southern Naval District, Li Hongjin looked at the information that had just been sent, shook his head helplessly, put it aside, and didn't care about it, because even if he did, it would be difficult to play any role, it was better to care, as long as he didn't touch the line!
