Launching rockets is of great strategic and economic importance for a country.

In strategic significance, since space rockets are still a must-have for intercontinental launches, this is also a deterrent to the outside world.

You must know that any country that has the technology to launch space rockets will have the ability to launch intercontinental ** on a global scale.

Once this capability is possessed, it is a deterrent to other countries, whether it is international status, discourse power, resources, etc.

As for the economic field, it is much easier to understand.

From the establishment of an independent virtual reality network separated from submarine cables, to the construction of space elevators, to the development of resources and minerals on planets such as the moon and Mars, all of these are inseparable from the most basic space technology of launching rockets.

Xu Yuan hopes that the earth's technicians can gradually digest the space technology from the source star.

After all, he is not a scientist himself, although he can easily bring the things of the source star to the earth, but he still has to rely on the scientists of the earth to digest these cross-era technologies.

Although he was also able to mobilize the talents of the source star, the launch of the rocket required was not something that could be solved by one or two people.

A large number of scientists are mobilized from the source star, and it is inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will find out, and it will be troublesome at that time.

And the talent pool thing, the sooner you start, the better, it will be a long-term investment.

After arranging everything properly, Xu Yuan drank all the black tea in one gulp, and then said goodbye to Lin Xiujie.

However, when he opened the door, he saw the chief of staff in a suit preparing to enter.

Smiling slightly at the Chinese with square-framed eyes, Xu Yuan walked past him.

His eyes stayed on Xu Yuan's back for a moment, and the chief of staff put away the smile he squeezed out and walked into the president's office.

"Mr. President, is this really good?"

"What do you mean? My Chief of Staff. Receiving the cup on the table, Lin Xiujie smiled.

"With all due respect, as far as I can see, the person sitting in the presidency is not you, but the man." Taking a deep breath, the chief of staff said.

"What's wrong with that? At present, 85% of our country's fiscal revenue is directly or indirectly related to his source film international group, and this year's fiscal revenue growth rate is expected to exceed 100%, which will be a miracle in the history of the world. Lin Xiujie said indifferently.

"But the monopoly of the economy by one company is extremely dangerous, and if necessary, they will even overthrow your rule, in ......," said the chief of staff, with some agitation.

"Mr. Chief of Staff, you must know that this country was originally overthrown by them." Lin Xiujie glanced at him lightly.

Looking at the indifferent eyes, the chief of staff couldn't help but hold his breath.

For a moment, he had a strange feeling about this familiar president.

"The person who sits in the presidency is me, Mr. Chief of Staff, and as long as I am so talkative, I will always be the one who sits in this chair."

"And as far as you can see, has the standard of living of the people fallen or improved compared to a year ago?" Smiling slightly, Lin Xiujie said.

"Indeed, it has improved ...... A lot. ”

Although he did not agree with Xu Yuan's use of the president as a puppet, the chief of staff had to admit that it was because of Xu Yuan's huge investment that the economy of the Lucas Islands was improved.

From building residential areas to improve the living environment of the islanders, to investing in infrastructure construction, instead of doing a single thing that harms the interests of Qatar, the Star Trading Company has done good things that cannot be counted on two hands.

"That's enough." Lin Xiujie smiled.

"But, I think ......"

The chief of staff wanted to say something, but Lin Xiujie unceremoniously interrupted him.

"Mr. Xu Kun, the reason why I hired you as the chief of staff is because of your doctorate in economics and your outstanding ability in the field of international relations and trade!"

Lin Xiujie's voice cooled.

"Please don't use your ridiculous political sense and boring ambitions here, this is not the White House of Berry Country, there is no intrigue here, this is the presidential palace of Qatar, do you know what I mean?"

After a long time, Xu Kun nodded with difficulty.

"Understood."

"Alright, go get busy, shall we?"

Lin Xiujie waved his hand, and secretly placed the chief of staff in the area to be observed.

It's a good thing to be capable, but if you don't control yourself, it's better not to!

Three days later, a document was sent to international organizations from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Qatari country.

And as soon as they received the documents, they appeared in the office of the director of the CIA.

In the spacious office, a middle-aged white man was leaning back in a chair, staring at the papers in his hand with a frown.

"Space program? What the hell is this Star Wish Trading Company doing? Leaning back on his desk, Ormaf stared at the document in his hand and couldn't help but say.

Because of the heavy losses of the espionage operation in China some time ago, the former director of the CIA finally could not resist the pressure of public opinion and resigned, so he Olmaf had a chance to take the position.

Although the authorities have adjusted their strategy against the Source Shadow International Group for various reasons, the name Xu Yuan has always been on the CIA's list of key concerns.

From the overthrow of the former Lucas regime, to the fishing boat incident in the East, to the recent boom in virtual reality technology, and the deep-sea mining technology that has caused a lot of discussion in the mining industry, the man's name can be faintly seen.

There is also information that Xu Yuan is likely to be the mastermind behind the civil war in the East, but because there is no evidence, the CIA cannot do anything about them.

Intuition tells Neolmaf that this guy is a dangerous person.

Not because his existence jeopardizes the national interests of the Berry Country, but because of his ability to always work miracles.

The agent standing next to Ormaf reported with his hands behind his back.

"The only thing that can be determined now is that Source Shadow International Group spent 6 billion US dollars to acquire all the shares of three private aerospace technology companies in China that are on the verge of bankruptcy, and held a board meeting to reorganize and merge the two companies, integrate them into the aerospace project department of Wishing Star Trading Company, and relocate to Qatar."

"What do you say about customs?" Ormaf's brow furrowed slightly.

"There are 21 pieces of equipment in the assets of the three aerospace technology companies that are listed in the restricted export items, but they did not take them, but directly sold the equipment at a low price, and it seems that they don't want the equipment at all, only the technicians."

Hearing this, Olmaf suddenly sneered.

"Haha, does he think that he only needs to get a group of Harvard and MIT graduates to come over and conjure a rocket out of nothing?"

Without that industrial production capacity, even a single screw on a rocket can't even be built.

This is not a problem that can be solved by a few scientists in the past, the more high-end the industry, the higher the requirements for the industrial base.

And it often takes decades to build this industrial base.

"I don't know, it's like we don't know where they got that deep-sea mining rig from." The detective pursed the corners of his lips.

Olmaf was suddenly silent, and although he was not a technician, he was born in science and knew something about the problems of deep-sea mining.

First of all, there is the problem of materials, very few materials can withstand the pressure of 8,000 meters of water depth for a long time, let alone mine under this terrible pressure.

One moment it's virtual reality, the next it's deep-sea mining, and now they're reaching out to space, and it seems that they've been laying out the most cutting-edge fields at any cost.

Frontier means risk, but conversely it also means high returns.

The majority shareholder of Yuanying International Group is a gambler through and through, and a gambler who does not skimp on the chips in his hands, which has almost reached a consensus among investors all over the world.

"Can you find a way to find out where their technology came from?" Ormav asked in a deep voice.

"I can't find it," the detective showed a helpless expression on his face, "Some time ago, we sent a team member, and the news we found was in Germany, but we couldn't find that location in Germany, and at present, we can only speculate that they may be under the ground of a certain country!" ”

"I have to say, although they have done a bit of informality in intelligence work, but the secrecy work is cautious, can I apply for additional manpower?"

Olmav shook his head, "Not now, we need too many places to use people, although the Source Shadow International Group is mysterious, but after all, it is only a private enterprise, although some people are interested in the technology in their hands, but the president wants to win them over, not too presumptuous." ”

"Isn't the president interested?" The agent asked tentatively.

"You know, it's the energy giants who are financing the president's campaign this time," Olmaf said lightly, "and it's better to leave the new stuff to the businessmen themselves." ”

"Well, by the way, there is also the news that the country of Qatar has now established a national security department, and our work may be affected to a certain extent. If I don't get support, I can't guarantee that I will be able to provide information like this in the future. The detective sighed and said helplessly.

"Then just make a show and keep an eye on their launch project, and don't be too nervous about the rest." Ormav said.
