Chapter 195: Preparation and "Model"

Navigator received an invitation to participate in the 72nd International Astronautical Congress.

Originally, the 71st International Astronautical Congress hosted by the Petroleum Alliance last year was able to participate, but it was not as arranged as this year, and it was necessary to apply to the China National Space Administration and then follow the team of the China National Space Administration.

But because of the epidemic and the fact that they had been busy with the Moon Grand Prix at the time, they only had a small reputation and no actual status, so they went in vain.

can only stay in the corner, not only Tang Chao is not interested, but Chen Jing is not interested.

So I didn't apply to participate.

But this year is different, the Navigator company already has enough names, in addition to applying to follow the national team, the host country will also take the initiative to send invitations.

The International Astronautical Congress (IAC) is an annual conference organized by members of the International Astronautical Federation, a non-profit non-governmental organization founded 70 years ago by members of various governmental organizations, industry associations and academic societies around the world.

The Federation encourages the promotion of space understanding and the development and application of space assets for the benefit of mankind, and has a wide influence in the international astronautical community.

Each year, the International Astronautical Congress has a different host country.

Last year, due to the epidemic, even if the Oil Alliance had a buff bonus for the successful launch of the Mars probe, it was almost meaningless, and many countries did not participate.

This time it was the turn of the Sakura Country, and it happened that last year's Mars probe of the Petroleum Alliance was launched with their rocket, and with this relationship, it naturally has to be done well.

For Tang Chao, the International Astronautical Conference the year before last was called a deep memory.

The 70th International Astronautical Congress (IAC) opened in Merrican's capital, Washington, D.C., with the theme "Space: The Power of the Past, the Promise of the Future."

Unfortunately, due to the "time conflict", the representatives of the Tianxia Space Agency were unable to attend the conference.

In fact, the real reason was that the delegation's visa was blocked, and Merrican did not allow the delegation to appear at the conference at all.

Moreover, at the opening ceremony of the conference, the then Vice President of Merriken, Mike Pence, declared that he would promote international space cooperation led by Merrican, and Merriken would only cooperate with "like-minded, freedom-loving" countries.

Interestingly, the President of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) has just said at the meeting that as time progresses, there is a growing recognition that space exploration is most successful when it is carried out in the context of international cooperation.

He also called on governments to strengthen cooperation among space agencies to advance the cause of space exploration for the common benefit of mankind.

The real situation is that Merrican is determined not to open up cooperation with Tianxia, unless Tianxia becomes his little brother.

On the contrary, Tianxia will never become that kind of "semi-colonial country" again, and that kind of shame has been enough in modern times.

But this time, there should be a good catch.

Last year, Tianxia just cooperated with Tang Chao, and the technology he got was also digesting.

By this year, the previous waves of technology have almost been digested, and it is time to strike outward.

Except for Merrican, which is sure that it will not cooperate, there are people everywhere who can cooperate.

For example, in recent years, several large launch missions Europa Space Agency has participated, either in instrument cooperation or deep space exploration cooperation.

There are also space agencies in developing countries, although their national strength is not strong and they cannot independently develop the space industry, but the relevant demand is very strong.

Especially in the information age, there is not even a satellite of its own, which is too restrictive to others.

This time, the technology of the national team and the technology of private space companies have been upgraded several times, and it is just the right time to take advantage of this conference to find some cake to eat in the international space field.

And Tang Chao also felt that this opportunity was good, and he could use this to implement the "leading the snake out of the hole" plan.

First of all, Sakura Country is not Merriken's homeland, and the other party always has some scruples...... Ahem, probably.

However, the cherry blossom country is also close to Tianxia, and although Merrican has made this place an outpost, he does have some scruples, if he doesn't have scruples, he won't be stationed here, but on another island.

After a layer of separation, Merrican can't be as careless as it is in China, Tang Chao's plan is always easier to operate.

As long as you are prepared and take the initiative to lead the snake once, you can separate the big crisis in the dark and turn it into a controllable small crisis.

Just like sometimes, in order to prevent super forest fires, professionals will selectively set a small fire.

When preparing in advance, man-made small fires can clean up the flammable litter accumulated on the ground, and without combustibles, there will be no major fires.

Otherwise, flammable materials pile up more and more, and a single lightning strike could cause a super fire with heavy damage.

Tang Chao just wanted this effect.

Instead of waiting for Merrican to suddenly open up when he is slack, it is better to take the initiative when he is prepared and detonate small contradictions.

But what's even better is that this Edo Game Show is just a few days before the International Astronautical Congress, as the second largest game show in the world, don't look at the main business of the Navigator company, but the people of the Navigator company can also participate, and they are still exhibitors.

The reason is the animation that Tang Chao invested in - "The Source of Steel".

Because the company is developing too fast, the original animation publicity plan has become the company's animation publicity, in order not to waste an investment, Chen Jing thought about turning it into a big IP and making more money.

Of course, it is also because Tang Chao, the boss, likes it more.

"The Source of Steel" is so well-made, with the background of the Navigator company, the mechanical design and its hardcore, although the plot is decent, it is enough to make it a hit.

Even the plot is a plus, because some of the animated plots are ...... That's really straight.

The animation is on fire, and then the game is out.

Like the "Lost Planet" series, "Call of Duty" near-future series, "Titanfall" series, "Burst", "Anthem", etc., although there are street hits, but this kind of more realistic, even if it is just a mecha-related game with a more realistic art design, Tang Chao likes to play.

He poured a lot of money into the Iron Source game and got them to work on it in these areas.

Ahem, if you want to make money, you have to invest money first.

The progress of the game is very fast, and it is almost A-tested, and a lot of things can be played, and it is no problem to use it for some small displays.

This is mainly because the modeling of the animation is very fine, and the game can be used with a little modification, and the animation has shown the world view, story line and other things, and the game can also be used.

The most important thing is that the promotional video has been made, and this is the most important thing.

Even though the game and animation have been done very well, after watching the promotional video, Tang Chao wants to make a movie again.

Sure enough, every game company is actually a film company that has been delayed by games, and if you want to make a movie, it will be a fire sooner.

Once a hobby,Being a big boss will not change,Before, because it was too busy,Domestic game exhibitions and comic conventions have been delayed.,This time, since he ran into a piece,He naturally wants to go and see.。

I don't know if Merrican could have guessed that he would attend an important International Astronautical Congress this time, but even if he did, and was already preparing, it would be fine, because he arrived in Edo City earlier and could catch them off guard.

And it's definitely not in vain for the boss to go to the comic con, in addition to showing games, the video game show will also sell peripherals, such as models and the like.

The exoskeletons, power armor, and mecha warriors in "Source of Steel" are too suitable for making models.

As a big boss, he naturally had to bring some well-made "models" with him.

As an aerospace company, Navigator has a very strong manufacturing capacity for precision parts, and it is certainly not ordinary to use it to make "models".

These "models" seem to come from his studio and are the boss's hobby works, but in fact they are from Kanxing, his sword and shield.

Using himself as bait, of course he wants to ensure his own safety. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
