In October 1975, Lim Yau Tak arrived in Singapore.

Long before the plane landed, he could clearly see the ladder that went straight into the sky, and Lin Youde looked at the super man-made object that divided the entire sky in two, and was full of emotion for a while.

-- It has been created, a hundred times more majestic than the Seven Wonders of the World, and a great miracle that can manifest the power of mankind.

Probably all the qiē created by human beings throughout the ages are not as good as the great cause in front of them.

Lim Youde specially ordered the plane to circle around this amazing miracle several times before landing at Singapore Airport. In the future, the area around Singapore will become a no-fly zone stipulated by the United Nations, and the existence of the no-fly zone will be jointly guaranteed by Xinming and the U.S. Air Force, so Singapore's airport will completely cease its civilian functions after today's ceremony, and Singapore's residents who want to leave Singapore can only take a train through the Indochina Peninsula or leave by boat.

Compared with the disadvantages caused by the suspension of civil aviation, the economic benefits brought by the passage to the universe are extremely large, and it is foreseeable that in the next ten years, Singapore will be able to soar even if it relies on orders from the aerospace agencies installed here.

Lin Youde's family all arrived in Singapore on the same plane, and when they got off the plane, the wives and ladies of the Lin family, together with the accompanying maids, had a whole wave of girls, which looked quite spectacular.

Lin Youde was greeted at the airport by Mr. Wu, who was already over the age of old, although his face was old, but Mr. Wu's body looked quite tough, Lin Youde estimated that he would have no problem living for another five years or ten years.

After the two shook hands, Mr. Wu said, "Mr. Lin's body is still so tough, he doesn't look like an old man in his sixties at all." ”

"Don't you look like you're in your old age at all?" Lin Youde responded with a smile.

"Oh yes, I heard that today happens to be your birthday Mr. Lin, so I prepared a little gift." Mr. Wu gestured as he spoke, and the entourage behind him immediately stepped forward to present the gift to Lin Youde.

Seeing this, Nia immediately stepped forward to accept the gift, and then handed it to the entourage behind her.

"Mr. Wu is really polite, for me, the completion of this Tower of Babylon is the best gift."

"I know, but this gift is a personal gift from me, a little bit of heart. Although Mr. Lin has been living overseas over the years, he has been doing his best to help Xinming, and I am personally very grateful for this. Show your gratitude with a gift. ”

Mr. Wu made a gesture of please: "Come, please here." Because the capacity of the car is limited after all, I can only ask the ladies and ladies to take other vehicles, and Mr. Lin and I will take a car, and we will have a good chat. ”

Lin Youde nodded in agreement, and then under the guidance of Mr. Wu, he got into the Hongqi bulletproof car produced by Xinming. Then the two sedans led the entire convoy and drove out of the airport.

In the car, Lin Youde and Mr. Wu chatted with each other, from the domestic situation in Xinming to the international economic situation.

"I have a few young people below me who are very good at the economy," Mr. Wu said to Lin Youde, "and after studying the world economic situation, they believe that there is no recession or depression in the world economy now, because they are going all out to build this Tower of Babylon." The orders and jobs brought by the Tower of Babylon more than offset the momentum of the recession.

So a few of them think that although the Tower of Babylon may not be able to recover any profits for a long time, it will be very good for the global economy, and this tower will not be built at a loss. Moreover, they further deduced that in the future, aerospace development will become a propellant for the development of the global economy, and although there will be no direct profits, aerospace science and technology will drive the development of many industries and play the role of an engine. ”

Lin Youde responded with a smile: "It is exactly like this, the scope of scientific research disciplines and industrial sectors involved in aerospace technology is too wide, once the scale of the aerospace industry is done, even if the industry itself is a bottomless black hole that swallows money, but its driving effect on the entire scientific research and industrial system is very obvious." However, the prerequisite for this to happen is that the scale of the aerospace industry is large enough, and if our aerospace industry is still only stuck in the process of hitting satellites, this kind of driving effect will be minimal. ”

Saying that, Lin Youde turned his head to look out the window, and the giant tower of Tongtian divided the entire space outside the window into two.

"With this thing," Lin continued, "we don't have to worry about the scale of the aerospace industry not being big enough." ”

After the construction of the Tower of Babylon, humanity has a way to project hundreds of tons of payload into space every day, and it is conceivable that human space development will develop many times faster than before.

Scientists in the United States and Germany are already arguing over the allocation of capacity for the completed Babylon Tower, and both sides want to prioritize the use of Babylon as much as possible to send their own spacecraft into space.

With this ladder, colonizing the moon has evolved from a fool's dream to a reliable choice. German astronauts have been working hard to explore the moon for many years, using remote sensing satellites to confirm the existence of dry ice and solid water on the moon, and also finding some interesting mineral veins, it seems that the feasibility of human colonies on the moon is increasing dramatically.

Now with the Tower of Babylon, that possibility swells again.

If someone thought it was unreliable and impossible when Lin Youde first shouted the slogan of colonizing the moon, no one would ever question Lin Youde so much now.

The story of Chang'e running to the moon is about to become a reality in this time and space.

"When we really establish a colony on the moon," Mr. Wu said in a joking tone, "we must make a statue of you on the surface of the moon, with the rocks of the moon, to commemorate this qiē you have done for mankind." ”

"'This qiē for mankind,'" Lin Youde shook his head with a smile, "This name is too big, I'm afraid I can't afford it." ”

"You are too modest, no one is more suitable for this title than you, you are the guide of mankind, prophet, I was originally an atheist, but after knowing you and knowing your deeds in detail, I have also become a believer in God, maybe there is really such a being, and we may not be able to say if I look at us from above."

Lin Youde smiled a little shyly, although he was used to being praised by others, but getting such straightforward and enthusiastic praise from the person he admired the most still made him a little unable to cope with it.

He could only turn his gaze out the window and continue to stare at the huge thing that stretched out the world.

Suddenly, Lin Youde thought, when this ladder starts to run, he Lin Youde should not have any regrets in this life after Lin Youde crosses, right?

After thinking about it carefully for five minutes, Lin Youde finally determined that this was the truth.

The moment the ladder began to run, Lin Youde's life was undoubtedly a life without regrets.
