Chapter 272: Human Frontier
The news media stationed in the SAR has reached a whole new order of magnitude -- the media and related staff account for 35% of the tourists in the future city, and people from all over the world and all languages gather here to appreciate the different places in the city and feel amazed.
Julia Loren was based in the company, and she found herself falling in love with the city. Although it is two cities, in many ways, they cooperate with each other, and their policies and laws are highly consistent, which is more like two sides of the same city.
In American terms, Future City gives people the feeling that the San Francisco Bay Area + Manhattan is combined, and the technology industry and economic industry go hand in hand; Liberty City is: the model of Las Vegas + Los Angeles, a paradise for entertainment and consumption, and a capital of lingering.
Roland knows it has a lot to offer, but as a professional journalist, she can see beyond the surface of the city: it has all the foundations, and it falls short only because of time, and if there is enough time, it must be incomparable.
Its technology and leadership allow people to enjoy the future in advance; Its entertainment and comfort allow people to enjoy and linger; Its welfare and planning for residents is also desirable. If you can live in this city - Roland has experienced a sister city in VR.
Now they have a gap, but they are getting closer.
Just the day before yesterday, another crazy move became a reality: controlled nuclear fusion power generation.
At the power plant in the south of Future City, Unit 1 has already been put into operation, and both cities have also enjoyed the continuous supply of electricity it brings. Professional articles are constantly being published, and more foreign subject matter experts are collecting every piece of information in this area.
Nuclear fusion power generation. It is enough to change the energy model of the whole society, and it also makes people realize the city's strong scientific and technological prowess. In addition, the previous superconductors and dinosaurs were resurrected. There are also discussions with the United Kingdom and France on cooperation with robot police.
Roland couldn't help but ask, how much magic does it have?
She didn't know. But every time she goes out to interview, whether it is a street hunt, a visit to a large company, or a visit to a senior government official, she can get a lot of fresh information, which is transmitted in real time through the country's Internet, and then surprises people.
On this day, she was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to interview the Chief of Ancilania, David Meng.
This person can only be described as "legendary", since he first made the news more than a decade ago. After becoming well-known, he has been opening a new chapter in technology and biology, whether it is the accuracy of his investment, or the unique vision of himself, he himself has been deified.
Now, Emirates Palace. Inside.
Roland couldn't help but want to look in the mirror to see if his makeup was messed up...... It was a momentous occasion when he, the chieftain, was paraphrased as "Grand Duke" in the West, and she was able to be selected in thousands of media. It's a lucky thing. She also believes in her own strength.
Ten minutes later, the door to the reception hall opened, and two staff members walked in first, standing and keeping the doors open on both sides. followed Meng Qian, who was dressed in a suit, appeared.
Roland stood up and stepped forward, and the British-born curtsy saluted: "Mr. Meng! Hello! ”
"Hello, Ms. Roland!" Meng Qian shook hands with her. Motioning to the seat next to you, "Please be seated!" ”
Roland sat down, the camera focused on them. Meng Qian, who was seated, smiled: "Will this be a formal and serious visit, or a relaxed interactive session?" ”
Roland also smiled: "It can be decided by you, sir." ”
"I prefer to be more relaxed. It's usually too busy. Meng Qian said, looking at Roland: "I've seen you on the news." ”
Roland may understand the reason why she was chosen, the BBC is British, and Meng Qian naturally has a habit of watching, especially the recent reports on the Special Administrative Region.
She smiled: "I have often heard that my husband is keen on Premier League football, and this season's Villa have been very exciting. ”
"They're good." Meng Qian is very happy, Villa's recent performance is indeed great, and he is expected to hit the No. 1 throne and repay his investment of burning money.
With a common topic, the strangeness between the two sides quickly dissipated - Roland seized the opportunity and began to move forward. Get down to business and ask this legendary man who is a chieftain and a super-rich man.
Being able to interview a person of this level in person is a good opportunity for her and for the BBC, so she is targeting a lot of directions.
Meng Qian also replied with face: "The nuclear fusion question you asked, in fact, I invested in the United States many years ago and achieved good results. ”
"Is this the result of a private enterprise, which will be mainly commercialized?"
"Yes, controlled fusion should be a technology that benefits humanity, and if we are willing to promote it and if there are countries willing to cooperate, we welcome it."
This is an exclusive piece of the story, and I thought that this technology would be retained...... Roland asked again: "Regarding the technical aspect, do you also consider transferring?" ”
"This needs to be answered on a case-by-case basis, and there are still many difficulties in nuclear fusion power generation technology, and other countries may not have this capability. You know, it's a convergence of multi-domain technologies, not a single aspect. ”
"The SAR has a full range of perfect technology?" Roland asked.
Meng Qian replied cautiously: "We have cooperated in many aspects, and it is the common result of research enterprises and scientific groups in many countries. ”
"But the technology here is more critical?" Roland guessed.
"Haha, I found something that the city lacks." Meng Qian smiled and pointed at Roland, "We lack a journalist with professional enthusiasm like you. ”
"Thank you, sir. So, you have a very high demand for immigrants from the outside world, elites in the field? "Roland is always able to bring his topic to the question he wants to ask.
Meng Qian nodded: "This is a country and a city of immigrants, we have a better platform, and we welcome people who are talented and accomplished in various fields." ”
Roland asked, "Confidence in many areas?" Like the field of materials and smart industry? ”
Meng Qian changed his posture and approached her mysteriously: "I said that we are short of talents, are you interested in staying in our national TV station?" ”
……
Julia Loren got a lot of fierce information from Meng Qian's mouth.
That's enough for her to write multiple articles and get the most prominent place in the news, because she was the first person to get comprehensive information about the sister city from the top leader. The other chief was a bit low-key, ignoring the voices of the outside world, and the spokesman was in charge.
Where is the conviction that comes out of the chief's lips in the words of the spokesman?
Roland's first fierce article is aimed at the problem of clean energy and nuclear fusion raw materials, and now all countries in the world are studying nuclear fusion power generation, but there are few results, except for this little-known African country - the essence is the migration of European and American capital, creating miracles.
There's a lot of stuff in that. With countless business opportunities and technologies, Roland's words will also become a reference point of view for many people, even at the level of national leaders. So she tried her best to restore the other party's original words, and summed up the technology as "reliable, clean and efficient".
Fusion Energy is willing to cooperate with the world, and His Excellency the Chief has not said anything about the transfer of technology, which will also be a certain possibility.
Meng Qian was quoted as saying: "This is a technological trend, a social trend -- from firewood, coal to oil, and the continuous evolution of energy. ”
Roland agrees with him, saying that 95% of the cars used in Future City and Liberty City are already electric and intelligent, and the orderly and high-speed efficiency is amazing.
After her report came out, all countries were paying attention, whether to cooperate or not is not a matter of a moment, they need to wait for a while, see the use of local nuclear fusion power plants, and even have intelligence collection for the military application of the other country.
But in the stock market, this huge breakthrough is the most obvious upward signal - the related nuclear energy industry has ushered in a rise - because if the company cooperates, it will definitely join forces with these companies, and the possibility of wholly foreign ownership is not very large.
Roland's story has been viewed by countless people, she has been rewarded herself, and she has volunteered to stay on the ground, wanting to see more of the city, because on her notepad, she can predict more amazing technology in the future.
For example, she has compiled and perfected the article "The Application of Brainwave Technology in the Field of Rapid Knowledge Education", which will inevitably subvert the traditional education model and shorten ten or more years to one or two years; It will also allow countless people to come here and make a pilgrimage to learn scriptures.
And their CTOS, that is, the urban system plan, which integrates artificial intelligence command, camera surveillance and scanning, and robot participation in the action, will also be liked by the European metropolis where the law and order situation is deteriorating, which is also the future.
She feels that this place represents the frontier of human progress. (To be continued.) )
