It only took a few months for Infinite Future to hold this prize-winning essay contest, and the total number of participants on the two platforms finally exceeded 20 million. That's a staggering statistic.

Although the number of words in the essay only needs to be within 140 words, there is no threshold for writing and genre, even if it is copied and pasted. According to the rules of the event, in addition to the first and second prizes, you need to see the number of likes, the third prize and the consolation prize are randomly drawn, and the prizes include a variety of optional accessories for drones, and some are still limited editions, which are full of temptation.

In today's fast-food, fragmented online era, the vast majority of online events are set up with the option of having participants only move the mouse and not touch the keyboard as much as possible. It is taboo to let people type, and you have to use your brain to hit the street.

In this environment, the number of participants in the event is enough to surprise people, and the relevant persons in charge of the two platforms invariably regret that the event was held too hastily, or postponed for a month or two.

Of course, the company doesn't care too much about this.

The two first prize winners, who were lucky enough to have a free space travel opportunity, soon received a prize from Infinity Future and an invitation to space travel for themselves.

The winner on the scarf platform was a big V joker, and he posted the invitation on the scarf for the first time, "I'm so lucky, but I'm so worried, please give me some advice, I'm going?" Or not going? ”

The scarf surpassed 100,000 comments overnight, and a large number of people left messages below, "Must go!" If you don't go, you will be closed! "It's hard to laugh or cry. And the phrase "if you don't go to space, you will be closed" once appeared in the top five of the hot search list.

Compared with the uneasiness and entanglement of this winner, the response of another winner from the Q-Space platform was much more enthusiastic. This candidate is also well-known on social platforms and can be regarded as an Internet celebrity. His family background is very superior, his father is the CEO of a large private listed company, but he is unwilling to take over step by step, but indulges in various extreme sports, and often publishes his extreme sports videos on the Internet. After the list of winners was announced, he immediately sent a scarf and said: I will definitely participate in space tourism.

At the same time, videos of the first test flights of space tourism began to appear online.

The 10-minute video shows the entire process of the first test flight in different stages. It begins with a soothing music in the background, and the first passengers who have changed into anti-load suits begin to enter the spaceship's cabin, wearing seat belts and other protective devices. Everyone has a few seconds to look at the video of the camera to say hello, and the subtitles are constantly updated, prompting the identity of the test pilot, there are aerospace experts, there are electronics experts, and when Chen Wenhao arrives, the subtitles are the CEO of Infinite Future Technology Company.

The rhythm of the music began to get faster, the door of the spacecraft closed, the picture switched to the ground control area, and the countdown number began to appear on the big screen, when the countdown number went to zero, there was no impression of the skyrocketing flame when the rocket was launched, and there was no roaring sound when the plane took off, only the silent vertical rise, and the two spaceships flew higher and higher in the shot, and finally disappeared.

The picture flashed in a flash, apparently switching to the perspective of the rear unmanned spacecraft, and professional camera equipment followed the first spacecraft in front of it, carrying the first batch of six-person test pilots. The music began to become intense, and the tail engine area of the ship began to reflect a pale blue light, and in the blink of an eye, it became a rich and dazzling light, and the ship began to change the attitude of the fuselage, and began to accelerate towards the sky at an elevation angle of 60 degrees. The sense of acceleration visible to the naked eye, and the surging and impressive power make people's blood boil through the screen. Climbing, upward, rushing through all the clouds, until the fuselage began to flash flames around the fuselage, the result of intense friction with the atmospheric air.

The music shifted from excitement to soothing, and the flames around the ship were gone, already passing through the thick atmosphere and into thin areas. The spacecraft is still moving upward, and in fact, in this area, it is difficult to distinguish between the concepts of up and down, and it is only through the constant interspersed images overlooking the Earth that this can be confirmed.

As it went, a strangely shaped artifact came into view: the International Space Station. Because the construction was only designed with functional requirements in mind, the shape is a bit unsophisticated, and the inaccurate description is: like two thick closed cylinders connected together, and then surrounded by solar panels and various electronic devices.

This multi-billion-dollar building, which was supposed to be the only area of human activity in this cold sky, has been hanging alone here for nearly a decade, and this time it has a companion to the visiting class.

The picture is still changing: the spacecraft arrives at 500 kilometers above the ground and stops in orbit and reverses into orbit, the spectacular view of the earth from the spacecraft, the spacecraft flies around the earth, the passengers unbuckle their seat belts and floats without gravity, the spacecraft re-ignites and returns to the ......ground, all the processes are condensed in a video of just a few minutes, showing all the people who watch. The video ends when the footage is finally fixed on a five-star red flag unfurled by the cheering crowd on the ground after the spacecraft successfully lands.

Needless to say, this is the official production video of Infinite Future, which invited professionals, selected materials from various shooting angles, and finally edited the finished product. This is also a publicity plan that has been done for a long time, as long as the test flight is successful, a follow-up series of promotion will be carried out.

It is worth mentioning that the public relations department also formulated and prepared a plan after the failure of the test flight, but they only learned after the successful test flight that the boss of the company was also one of the test pilots. They are also afraid, if the test flight fails, don't make any plans, everyone divides the luggage and goes back to their respective homes.

Not to mention the entanglement of the insiders of the public relations department, the entire network is boiling again with the release and circulation of the video. Within an hour of the video being released, several major video platforms in China invariably put it on the homepage, and the number of hits on any platform exceeded one million, and the comment area was full of "666" and "Niu Niu Niu" messages.

TECH, a well-known Internet media in China, not only launched a special column on space tourism at great speed, but also published a column "A New Milestone for Mankind" two hours later, praising the test flight.

The article said that the successful test flight of the manned spacecraft has made mankind's dream of "going out of the earth on a large scale" more and more realized, and it is believed that the desire of human beings to land and colonize alien planets is no longer so far away, which is a new milestone in the development of human society, which can be juxtaposed with events such as social system changes, industrial revolution, and the Internet age, and is a new milestone for mankind.

The article summarizes the greatest significance of the success of the test flight into three points: first, for the first time, human beings have exponentially reduced the cost of leaving the earth to the level of "cabbage price", and the threshold of 50,000 yuan has reached the limit that ordinary people can afford compared with the previous requirements of millions of yuan.

Secondly, the physical requirements for passengers have been relaxed to the universal standard, and according to the available information, it is not difficult to find that as long as the physique of ordinary people can ride. One of the major hurdles of humanity's real march towards the space age has been overcome.

Third, it truly demonstrates the strength of China's aerospace industry. Although the domestic aerospace industry is developing rapidly, after all, it started too late, and it is still backward in some cutting-edge fields, and European and American countries have also been blockading our country in terms of relevant technologies. The success of this test flight has declared that our manned technology is already the best in the world.
