Anything is afraid of contrasts.

I only earn 3,000 a month, and I'm miserable.

But if someone only earns 2,000 a month, then I won't be miserable, because someone is worse than me.

I scored 600 points in the college entrance examination, which is very high, and I am very satisfied.

But someone scored 650 points in the test, and they immediately beat me down.

Uncomfortable.

It turns out that I am the most beautiful boy in the class, everyone is around me, even if I don't pay for every dinner, and let others pay for it, I am still the most beautiful boy.

But then there was another man, he turned out to be poor and white, and then quickly became rich, and he was good to everyone in the class, wanted to make friends with everyone, and paid for every treat, and slowly, everyone ignored me.

That person became a pretty boy, and I became a hairy man.

Why is that?

Is this also a contrast?

Yes, that's the contrast.

When Tang Chao "donated" the unmanned exploration spacecraft on behalf of the Navigator and Tianxia "donated" the Tianwen-1 orbiter, Merriken's representative knew that things were going to be wrong.

At this meeting, Merrican was the first country to speak, because of the United Nations Big Apple, and the Big Apple is in Merriken.

It's as simple as that.

It's just that in order to take care of the messy people, it didn't do anything for a morning, and the most meaningful thing was to say the factual data of the unknown detector at the beginning, which was an explanation to the representatives of various countries.

Toward the end of the morning meeting, Merrican's permanent representative spoke, saying, "Whatever the final outcome is, Merrican will fund this operation with $1 billion." ”

It's just this matter, the people here are not stupid and sweet, nor are they licking dogs on the Internet, even if they can make a false and false deal with Merrican for survival and profit, but the essence of Merriken, they are still clear.

In the case of such a fanfare donation by Merrican, they generally go in the left ear and out the right ear.

Of course, if Merrican gives money or supplies on the spot, then say something else.

Stage.

Tianxia's scientists, space agency staff and Tang Chao are talking about the specific search plan, if the unknown probe can be found within a month and a half, it is better, if it can't be found, the unmanned exploration spacecraft will join the search operation.

And Tianxia didn't plan to undertake this mission alone, so he announced that he would receive international aid, and other countries wanted to use ready-made space and space equipment to assist, or donate money directly, anyway, the purpose of everything was to find the unknown probe in the shortest possible time.

Make friends by the way.

Offstage.

Or maybe someone in the audience is doing a secret video.

The United Nations General Assembly Hall can be videotaped and photographed, but important meetings are not allowed to be broadcast live, only recorded and broadcasted, and they also need to be edited.

One is that some things really can't be broadcast, such as ripping with each other, which is a serious waste of time.

The second is that the UN General Assembly is too long, and even if no one cares about the rituals, no one will watch such a stinky and long meeting.

All images from the scene were transmitted through the back door to a secret conference room in Merrican, where the shadow of the delegation in front of us was the real decision-maker.

"Gentlemen, it is already clear that we are lagging behind in this competition, the other side is still courting allies, we cannot go on like this, we must come up with a reciprocal solution." said a representative of an official.

"We still have three orbiters in orbit around Mars, are we also announcing the use of one orbiter for the mission? Relative to the number of other countries that only have one, we don't have to worry about not having an orbiter in Mars orbit. A NASA guy said.

"But the same thing has already been announced by Tianxia first, and there is no point in us doing this, so we must use a new method, and we can't follow Tianxia." A lawmaker said.

"Then we can only use the event horizon telescope to search for the unknown probe, Merriken's deep space exploration network is the most advanced in the world, maybe we can find it before Tianxia finds it." One scientist proposed.

Of all the voices proposed, there is one that is the most demagogic and one that scientists may be a little disgusted by, but officials absolutely like.

Especially the Grand Commander, he definitely likes it the most.

"Actually, we can be as bold as possible."

"Now it's Tianxia's side that takes the initiative to attack, and we are defending, we have to find a breakthrough, otherwise our situation will be very dangerous, and I believe that the councillors don't want to see this."

"So I'm suggesting that we use the event horizon telescope and secretly enable an orbiter to find it, so that we can definitely find that alien probe before any organization does."

"Alien technology is too dangerous, for the safety of all mankind, the great Merrican must take care of these technologies and let it stay in a safe place, and the safest place in the world is the Merrican Research Center."

Hearing this, even scientists have no objections.

The person who gave the advice was none other than the Supreme Commander of the Space Force, John, who personally ended up for the sake of the right.

As he said, if Tianxia became more powerful than Merrican, the councillors and the Grand Commander would definitely not be happy, so they wouldn't care how much it cost at this time.

Just like back then, the giant overwhelmed Merriken in the early space field, and they frantically threw money until they smashed a manned landing on the moon, which turned the situation around space.

In their opinion, today's Tianxia is definitely a standard offensive posture, and it is also a little crazy.

At least Tianxia has definitely started throwing money at it.

The private company of the Navigator Company would donate such a crazy probe for free?

No kidding, it's a private company, look at private companies all over the world, what private company would do that?

Is there anyone in the world who knows the nature of private companies better than them?

The answer, of course, is: no.

It must have been paid by the Tianxia official.

As for why a private company was put on the table, it probably wanted to promote the safe investment environment of Tianxia and attract international funds.

In short, in their opinion, Tianxia definitely has a strong sense of purpose and is very intelligent... Cunning, what was said in the past about "win-win cooperation", the real meaning is actually that Tianxia will win twice.

So Merrican is also going to start throwing money at it, and it can't afford to be left behind.

And if they throw money like crazy, those scientists will have something to do, not to mention that after finding alien technology, they will swallow it all and hand it over to the scientific research center, and those scientists will have nothing to say.

Scientists, of course, want the whole world to unite for scientific research, but as long as they need to rely on state institutions for a day, they must follow the orders of state institutions.

Not to mention that there are many people who are not so selfless, and they are more willing to win some international awards than to pave the way for humanity to move forward, and put their big billboards next to the road.

In a very short period of time, all made their choices.

John got the answer he wanted, so he smiled and said, "Gentlemen, for the sake of the great Merrican, for the sake of all mankind, let us begin to vote by a show of hands." ”

"For Merrican."

"For Merrican."

"In order to... Humanity. ”

One by one, these people solemnly said slogans, and all raised their hands to show that they agreed with the plan.

"Very good, a perfect unanimous pass, gentlemen, history will definitely remember this moment, it was us, making Merrican great again!"

John was overjoyed and held up his hand at the same time.

The more resources Merrican invests in spaceflight, the more power he, as the supreme commander, will have, and when he gets the alien technology, he can build real space warships.

By that time, he would definitely be the most powerful man in the solar system.

Even if......

However, the technology of the unmanned exploration spacecraft of the Navigator company is also good, for the sake of all mankind, this time it is international cooperation, and they should contribute the technology.
