Maxwell had a headache now, and he didn't expect his crow's mouth to be unlucky.

Suddenly, his assistant trotted over and whispered in Maxwell's ear, "The people from the meeting are coming." ”

"Let them come!" Maxwell knew he couldn't escape it.

The assistant hurriedly went to bring the person over.

"Director Maxwell, I'm Benjamin, from Homeland Defense." The tall middle-aged white man said solemnly.

"Hello! Mr. Director! I'm Philip in the Federal Parliament. Philip of the council reached out and shook Maxwell's hand.

Then a middle-aged blonde woman: "Mr. Director, it's a great pleasure to meet you, I'm Alice, Special Advisor to the Black Palace." ”

"It's a great honor to meet you, let's talk in our office!" Maxwell shook hands with them one by one and led them to his office.

As soon as he sat down, Benjamin couldn't wait to speak: "Director Mack, let me make a long story short, if we give our full support, can you complete the mass projector?"

"This ......" Maxwell's heart suddenly drummed, and he thought for a moment and said tentatively, "Who do you mean?" Homeland defense? Or?"

"Mr. Mike, we are all of us, the whole of the Mi Li family." Alice said directly.

Maxwell was surprised and delighted at once, apparently this strength was beyond his expectations, and now he was excited that he would not be short of money in the future, but he was also worried that he would mess things up.

"First of all, thank you very much for your support, but ......," Maxwell said again.

"Mr. Mack, if there is any difficulty, just say it, now that the situation is urgent, let's not talk about it." Philip said, raising his glasses.

"Then I'll just say that at least 400 billion needs to be invested, and the success rate is about 50%." Maxwell got vaccinated first, so as not to mess up and get a hat when he got it.

"400 billion? Hua Yuan?" Philip asked, stopping his note-taking hand.

"Beautiful knife! Moreover, it is a preliminary estimate of the funds, and I cannot fully assess the situation later. Maxwell tried to put the situation in the worst possible way.

"Money is not an issue, and I just want to know why the success rate is only 50%." Benjamin said with a somewhat complicated expression, he seemed to know some inside information.

"The construction of vacuum pipes is very difficult, not because the design technology is not good, but because the material technology is not up to it." Maxwell puts the problem out of the way.

Philip stopped again and asked, "Our materials are not good?"

"Exactly, I don't know how the Dongtang people did that kind of soft vacuum pipe, which involves a lot of material problems, and we don't have materials that can do this level." Maxwell said helplessly.

Benjamin touched his chin and asked, "If you don't use a soft vacuum pipe, can you build a vacuum pipe with reinforced concrete?"

"The Eastern Tang Dynasty people once envisioned that it would be to build a tunnel on Mount Everest, plus a ground acceleration tunnel, but the amount of work required for this project is too large, and if we build a tunnel in the Rocky Mountains, plus supporting facilities, the cost may reach 1.5 trillion." Maxwell explained.

1.5 trillion?

Hearing this number, even they couldn't help but tremble, now that the rice grain family is in a downturn, there will always be hundreds of billions of squeezes, but 1.5 trillion to build a mass projector that I don't know if it will succeed, which is equivalent to 8% of the rice grain family's GDP this year.

Once the project fails, even if the Federal Reserve turns on the money printing machine to fill the hole, it will not be able to fill such a big hole, and it is very likely to trigger a complete collapse of the economy.

"In addition, it is best to use superconductors for the conductor of the mass projector, and now we don't have the normal temperature superconductor of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and we don't have a Thor battery that can be used as a supercapacitor, so it's better for us to make a high-thrust rocket!" Maxwell continued.

Obviously, he also knew that if the mass projector did not solve these material problems, it was definitely a big pit that could kill people, even if the rice grain family jumped down, he might not be able to get up.

As for why they know that Galaxy Technology has room temperature superconductors, after all, there is no impermeable wall in the world, with the application of room temperature superconductors, now those big forces know that Dongtang and Galaxy Technology have room temperature superconductors.

"If we can get these materials, will we be able to build a mass projector?" Benjamin asked unrelentingly.

Maxwell curled his forehead: "Theoretically, it can be done. ”

"Theoretically?" Benjamin asked dissatisfied.

"After all, we don't have a physical object, and the first time we engage in this kind of thing, the specific situation can only be analyzed by looking at the real thing." Maxwell said embarrassedly.

The four of them talked for more than three hours, and when they finally left, everyone looked solemn.

This huge pressure makes them now in a dilemma, if they don't follow up, the gap between the two sides may become bigger and bigger, and when the time comes, they will be boiled frogs in warm water; Follow up, it's okay if you succeed, but it's a big trouble if you fail.

As for the robbery, those hundreds of mushrooms are no joke, unless they want to break the net and make peace with everyone.

Anyway, now the Federal Parliament has turned the world upside down, and it starts with 400 billion on its own, and the success rate is still fifty-five; If you don't do it, you may miss the interstellar era, how can the tsundere eagle sauce of the blue star bear this kind of thing.

At the scene of this meeting, it was almost a full martial arts, with spitting and shoes flying, swear words and quarrels.

Not only is the Mi Li family having a headache, but the Xizhou Alliance, Mao Xiong, and Tianzhu are also discussing this matter.

For a while, the whole world was lively, and you came and went with international calls one after another.

Even the King of Siam became a vegetative state due to a cerebral hemorrhage and Chuda came to power was ignored by all forces.

It can be seen from this that the impact of the mass projector put into use is huge.

On November 22, the mass projector of the Kaohsiung base was officially put into use, and three spacecraft were also launched, forming a prototype of a space station in space.

The Eastern Tang-Galactic Alliance, which has two mass projectors, can now be said to be in full swing.

Sun Country, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

A secret meeting of the six major consortia.

"Yamauchi-san, we have decided to advance and retreat together with everyone for the glory of Greater China." As soon as the meeting began, Gen Ito, a representative of the Persuasion Bank Foundation, hurriedly expressed his position.

The glory of Greater China? If you want to hug your thighs, you can say it directly, and you will say it in a high-sounding manner, and Yamauchi alone will despise it in his heart.

"Then welcome to join Quanyin, since it is a family, then you should know how to do it." Akio Toyoda reminded.

"We know that we must cooperate." Ito Gen bowed solemnly.

With the complete collapse of the Persuasion Bank Foundation into the camp of the Galaxy Foundation, it was also announced that the six major foundations of the Sun Country had completely joined the Galaxy Foundation, and the six major foundations of the Sun Country joined forces, plus the cooperation of the Hatoyama faction.

They have completely controlled the internal situation in the Sun Country, and now they are waiting to get rid of the Mi Li family.

Judging from the current situation, the decline of the rice grain family is already the general trend, and it is a matter of time before it withdraws from Asia.

Similarly, Southeast Asia is also more respectful and cautious about the Eastern Tang-Galactic Alliance, and now the rise of the Eastern Tang-Galactic Alliance is unstoppable.

At this time, the international game became more and more intense, and the smell of gunpowder from the tip of the needle to the wheat mang became more and more intense.
