Chapter 811: Countries Around the World Pay (Part II)
Chapter 811 The Whole World Pays Money (II)
Just like Yang Yiwei said, this matter has a considerable effect on China's promotion of its own status in the world, so when the meeting passed the results, the chairman personally called Yang Yiwei to confirm the authenticity of this matter, and when Yang Yiwei repeatedly assured him, the chairman assured that this matter will be sent out as soon as possible, because the recent G20 summit is just at the relevant summit to discuss this matter with other countries.
Because now, according to the relevant contract of the whole world, in terms of space resources, they are shared by all mankind, and there are no national boundaries, so these countries should all join in, especially as a responsible big country, no matter what country will not easily damage their position in front of the countries of the world.
After receiving Yang Yiwei's assurance, about two days later, the Chinese government directly released the news to the outside world, but did not hold a press conference, but the person who revealed the news was revealed by the chairman at a meeting with the French prime minister.
When this news was revealed, it immediately caused a sensation, and the Chinese government and Starfall Group jointly developed a satellite that can clean up space junk? However, because of its own reasons, because it is for the space of all mankind, the Chinese government calls on the whole world, at least the countries that have the ability to launch satellites to devote themselves to this task of controlling space junk, and the Chinese government takes the lead in providing free funds of 10 billion RMB to the actual person in charge of this mission, Starfall Group, to help Starfall Group manufacture this kind of satellite and clean up space junk.
And the chairman told reporters that he would personally call the President Ma of the United States, President Putin and others to discuss the matter with them. In addition, the French prime minister, who was visiting China at the time, said at the time that the French government would also be involved in this matter, but how much money it would provide to the Starfall Group would need to be discussed by the French government. As soon as the news was released, Obama knew about it.
For example, the leaders of these countries meet with other leaders, especially this kind of big country, the leaders of other big countries are very concerned, even if they don't read the news themselves, there will be staff or staff around them to watch the news, and then report the relevant information to their own boss. And although it was not a press conference, when the chairman told reporters the news, he personally mentioned Obama, as the two most influential leaders in the world, this kind of thing. Obama's aides naturally reported to Obama as soon as possible.
"What is this for?" When Obama received the news, he was stunned. In his opinion. He admitted that China's aerospace technology has developed in recent years, and the speed of development is very fast, but in this regard, the United States is still the boss. Now China is actually calling for this. Well, the satellite that cleaned up space junk was proposed by the Starfall Group, so this has to be taken seriously.
The next day, Obama personally summoned his staff to discuss the matter. Because the chairman was not joking, on the same day, not long after the staff members around him reported the news to him, the Chinese head of state really called him and specifically mentioned the matter. Therefore, this matter has to be taken seriously, and the phone calls between these heads of state will naturally not make a decision on a certain matter, unless there is already a tacit understanding between the two sides.
Therefore, Obama must convene his aides to discuss this matter as soon as possible, money is not a problem, and the US government is not short of money, but what does China mean by bringing forward this matter, and what does it mean for the Chinese government to do, these must be clarified.
"No matter what the purpose of the Chinese government is, as China's naval strength develops faster and faster, if the two aircraft carriers Guangzhou/West and Si/Sichuan complete their training and enter active service, China's strength in this area is already equivalent to our entire Pacific Fleet, even if the Si/Sichuan will be stationed in Madagascar, but in that case, in East Asia, our aircraft carrier battle group is still insufficient. So, according to our analysis, as China's military power grows stronger, they can't wait to start improving their international standing. One of the staff members shook his head slightly.
"Well, I think it's the same, not to mention that the Starfall Group has such skills, but obviously the Chinese government is trying to show its muscles in the countries around it, according to our CIA intelligence, the king of Laos has recently gotten very close to the Chinese government and wants to join the China-Madagascar treaty!" The director of the CIA also said with a serious face.
Obama's brow immediately furrowed, and he couldn't help but look back at Brennan and ask, "Is the news reliable?" ”
"We are 80 percent sure that although the CIA has just gotten the news, the relationship between Laos and China has always been good in terms of Asian countries, and they are both socialist countries, and now China, as the leader of socialist countries, has a great influence in socialist countries." Brennan spoke quickly.
"Is there any contact with Vietnam, and what is Vietnam's attitude?" The first person to ask was not Obama, but the chief of staff of the White House, who claims to be the second president of the United States. McDonough. The position of Chief of Staff of the White House is quite special, and to put it more realistically, his power in the United States is even second only to the president, and he is the highest-ranking official in the office of the President of the United States, also known as the White House Chief of Staff.
At the same time, he also served as the senior assistant to the president of the United States, known as the second most powerful person in Washington, in fact, the task of the former chief of staff of the White House belonged to the secretary of state of the United States, but after 1946, in order to cope with the rapidly expanding affairs of the United States, the position of assistant to the president of the United States was formally established to handle the daily affairs of the White House, in 1961, the top assistant to the president of the United States was appointed as the chief of staff of the White House, so to speak, because the president does not participate in decision-making on the surface, the position of chief of staff will become the actual prime minister, Such prime ministers do exist in the government structures of France and Russia.
Putin did not serve as prime minister for one term and then become president, bypassing Russia's constitutional provisions. So the right to the position of chief of staff in the White House is very large. The reason why Dennis asked Brennan this question is because France's influence on Laos is very large, because Vietnam is actually one of the few socialist countries, but Vietnam's influence on Laos is very large.
Although the relationship between China and Laos has always been good, but in fact, Vietnam's influence on Laos is a little greater, Vietnam and Laos also have a special relationship, because the second chairman of Laos is of Lao and Vietnamese descent, so the relationship between the two countries is very special, and the decision-making of the Vietnamese government has a great impact on the decision-making of the Lao government.
"In fact, we asked the ambassador to Vietnam to ask this question from the side, but Vietnam's attitude now is actually quite ambiguous, because after all, China has border contact with Vietnam, and although Vietnam's relationship with the Chinese government was not very good before, especially in the South China Sea, however, with the completion of China's aircraft carrier battle group, Vietnam has not quarreled with China for a long time, and even the Philippines' attitude towards China is quite ambiguous now." Brennan shrugged.
Dennis frowned, then thought for a while before speaking: "Mr. President, I think we must be involved in this matter, the Chinese government is improving its influence in the international community, and we naturally cannot lag behind, in fact, in recent years, our position in the international community has become more and more neglected, no matter how much money we spend, we must be involved in this matter, so that other countries in the world can see that the United States is still a responsible power, At least we are an authority in the aerospace field, so we will not fail to deal with the garbage that our country has brought down, and we can also show the whole world that the US government cannot allow the Chinese government to unscrupulously organize its own alliance. ”
Obama nodded, as the chief of staff of the White House, he was to help him analyze the situation, and Obama naturally believed in Chris's words, "But we can't just let the Star Fall Group toss, right?" They give money when they ask for it? Another senior assistant thought for a moment and spoke.
"Of course not, no matter which country is willing to pay, there must be supervision over this part of the funds, and it is impossible to let the Starfall Group toss it by itself, besides, they say that they can clean up space junk, but they haven't carried out specific tests yet, right? What is the actual feasible capacity, this is still an unknown, how much garbage can be cleaned up by launching a satellite? How to start cleaning up this, since we provide funds, we need technical personnel to go to demonstrate, so that we can also demonstrate from the side what kind of scientific and technological strength the Starfall Group has reached. Chris thought for a moment and said.
None of the others spoke, but Chris hesitated before speaking, "Mr. President, I think it's time and time for us to expand the number of members of the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty." ”
"Huh?" Chris's words immediately made everyone in this conference room raise their heads in surprise, the US-Japan security treaty is naturally familiar to everyone, it can be said that this is a kind of military alliance between the two people in a sense, expanding the number of member states? In other words, the U.S.-Japan security treaty will be expanded into a full-fledged existence similar to that of Kitatsuki. (To be continued......)
