Chapter 837 Assessment (II)

Obama's brow immediately furrowed, "What do those companies say?" "Obama is asking about the few arms companies, these arms companies are responsible for almost all the defense industry in the United States, and because of the emergence of the Starfall Group, China's national defense strength is increasing at a leaping speed, although the United States has the most powerful industrial system in the world, the most powerful manufacturing system, but no matter how strong, this system also needs a certain amount of time to break out, and there is no doubt that China's outbreak time is shorter, and it is more unexpected.

"They have begun to unblock several technologies, but during this time I have visited and inspected our main seven or eight defense companies, and talked to their experts, the situation is not optimistic, according to their estimates, although we have a generation of technology in our hands, but even if we quickly unblock this generation of technology now, it is at best only comparable to the batch of technologies that the Chinese government is getting now, and if they want to lead, they also need to continue to put the next generation of products into practice. But this must be supported by the government. Chris nodded with a serious face.

Obama's face immediately froze, and he knew what the government's support meant, just like the Manhattan Plan that the U.S. government launched with all its might during World War II in order to master a weapon that could win, although the modern American economic strength is not comparable to that of the United States during World War II, but in the same way, the technology that needs to be developed now is not comparable to the development of an atomic bomb technology during World War II, and there are many kinds of technologies that need to be invested now.

In this way, if it were like the Manhattan Project, the amount of money that the US government would need to invest would not be a small amount, and even doubling the current military spending would barely be enough, if it were carried out under a wartime system. A considerable part of the money can be saved, and these expenses are not a one-time investment of one year or two, which is a long investment process and acceptable for the United States.

But what needs to be done now is whether the U.S. government needs to do this or not, and it's not a wartime presidential system, Obama can decide everything, and some of his decisions need to be authorized by Congress, and if he doesn't have congressional authorization, even if he wants to do it. There is no way to do it, if it is a wartime system, it would be great, and the power of the wartime president will be great, Obama shook his head slightly in his heart, to be honest. He sometimes envies the one in the East, at least that's what people call it.

Although he is the president, he claims to be the most powerful person in the world. But there are many, many things. Even if he was president, he had to compromise, but the one in the East didn't need to compromise with anyone, and of course, such a thought flashed through the mind, and Obama quickly refocused on the matter at hand.

"What do you think?" Obama pondered for a moment, then asked again.

Chris had already consulted with Obama's aides before he came here. At this time, of course, it was him who answered the question, and Chris nodded and said, "Yes, and we must support, but now we are facing a problem." How did you convince Congress? You know, it's not so easy to convince Congress of something like this, and because of South Africa, Congress reluctantly agreed, and the base was built, but now if you want to enforce this bill, you have to think about Congress, because in this way, in the eyes of the general public and the media, it is another Cold War era. ”

Chris's words were like a wake-up call, which instantly gave Obama a headache, although it was said that the United States was the victor after the worst of the Cold War, and even secretly stole the wealth of the Soviet Union for a hundred years, but did not damage the United States itself? How can it be! Moreover, at that time, there was really a string between the United States and the Soviet Union, and no one knew about it, and maybe one day in his sleep, someone suddenly woke up and needed to press the button in the nuclear weapon safe.

Can the American people accept this kind of Cold War behavior in which the two sides are misfired? If you are not careful, it is really the rhythm of destroying the world, there is no doubt about China's strength, even if China's strength has not reached its peak now, but don't forget, even so, China's strength is only stronger than the Soviet Union at that time, and China is also a nuclear power.

"Well, it looks like we'll have to wait for the results of the specific assessment." Obama rubbed his forehead, then nodded, and he also knew that although the Cold War ended with the victory of the United States, in fact, no one wanted another Cold War, whether it was him, American officials, or American civilians. The United States has a unique geographical location, and Obama hopes that the United States can use this position to cause disputes between China and other countries, and involve China's power.

This is also the reason why the United States is developing Japan, because he does not want the United States to make a major change in its strategy at the same time, although it is becoming more and more difficult for the US Government to contain China, but it is still difficult to do it. Obama waited too long, probably more than an hour, before he saw his White House security officer walk in.

Behind him were two soldiers in their thirties wearing colonel uniforms, these two soldiers were expressionless and not very strong, but they had an indescribable temperament. "Mr. President, the people from the General Staff are here, do you want them to avoid it?" After walking in, the White House security officer spoke directly.

"Then we'll go out first." Several of the staff members immediately stood up, and they knew what they should listen to and what they should not hear.

"Mr. Chris can stay." The soldier standing on the left suddenly spoke.

Chris, who was just about to stand up, immediately turned his attention to Obama, Obama nodded, and then said to Chris: "Chris, you stay, I need someone who knows the strategy of the government and the military to help me analyze the problem." "Chris knew a lot of confidential things about the CIA before, and he also knew the specific work arrangements of the government, and Obama needed Chris to stay and help him analyze the problem, Chris did this specifically, and his IQ was definitely not low.

It can be said that more than 90% of Obama's decisions were made after discussion with Chris, and even many decisions were made by Obama without knowing it, and then Chris made the decision instead of Obama. "Yes, Mr. President." Hearing Obama say this, Chris nodded immediately, and then sat down in his place.

After the rest of the people walked out, the White House security officer was the last one to get out, and after closing the door of the study, there was no one else in the huge oval office, and there was no doubt about the security here, although Hollywood has made films such as the fall of the White House more than once, but in reality want to hit the White House? That's a lot to think about.

As soon as Chris and Obama were seated, the two servicemen gave Obama a quick military salute before opening the contents of their hands on a nearby table, which was a small portable device. Soon the thick curtains in the room were all lowered by one of the soldiers, and the other soldier was operating the notebook in his hand, and soon a holographic projection appeared in the center of the office, with several gadgets on other walls, with the activation of the instrument, with a buzz, the whole system of projection techniques constructed by the light green laser was activated.

Obama was not surprised, but Chris was slightly surprised, such a technique, to be honest, Chris had never seen it before, but seeing that the other party was so proficient, this proves that such a technique is quite mature. Chris is not a scientific researcher, so he doesn't know what is difficult about the whole system projection like Lu Dao, so he just sat there and began to listen quietly.

"First of all, Mr. Chris, we need you to swear to the U.S. Constitution. Keep everything you see today a secret. After doing all this, one of the soldiers came up to Chris and gave a military salute. Chris hurriedly stood up, he is naturally no stranger to such a procedure, whether it is the president or vice president of the United States, or other cabinet members, they all need to take an oath to the constitution when they take office.

Soon Chris took the oath and the soldier invited Chris to sit down, and directly gave Obama a military salute and said, "Mr. President, can you start?" ”

"Let's get started." Obama nodded.

The slightly darker-skinned colonel immediately spoke: "Yes! Mr. President, according to the information we have in our hands, as well as the pattern taken by the agents in the Starfall Industrial Park, this is the result of our analysis, and the probability of it is about 70 to 90 percent. "With the operation of this colonel, the first thing to run is not a holographic projection, but a projector, and the photos displayed on the wall directly opposite the president's office, from one photo after another, you can see that this satellite is very closely monitored.

"We have calculated that according to the progress of these construction teams, the construction of the Starfall Park will only be completed by 70% at most. Especially in terms of the construction of these laboratories, although we can't arrange the situation of underground buildings, the progress of building these laboratories is even faster than the progress of building ground buildings, so we suspect that Starfall Group has a lot of modern construction, such as robots. The colonel spoke directly to the first conclusion.

"Robots?" Chris subconsciously repeated.

Looking at Chris, the colonel nodded: "Yes, robots, or engineering robots." (To be continued......)
