Since the Dongtang and the Galaxy Consortium have no interest in holding meetings abroad, as soon as the Mi Li Family and the Xizhou Alliance are combined, if you don't come, we will come to the door in person.

Then the Committee on the Outer Space issued the most bizarre announcement in history, announcing the convening of an international conference on outer space in Shanghai without the consent of the eight hosts.

In the face of these shameless guys, Dongtang was also very helpless

However, for the sake of disgusting them, the host was at least responsible for the accommodation and food of the international conference according to the level, and in previous years, there were also travel expenses and some benefits and the like.

This time the International Conference on Outer Space, Dongtang directly came to participate at your own expense, anyway, you are responsible for the accommodation and travel expenses of the participants, and you will not even provide a place for the conference to be held.

The completely shameless Mi Lijia and the Xizhou Alliance hurriedly pooled money to the Outer Space Committee and asked the Outer Space Committee to rent a place in Shanghai.

Anyway, this international outer space conference was very embarrassing, but fortunately, Dongtang did not do it, otherwise they would not have been able to come if they refused the visa directly.

The whole network forum.

"It's the first time I've seen a dead face come to a meeting." Manually funny

"They're in a hurry." Martian

"It's strange if you're not in a hurry, if you don't come again, you may not even have a place." A sea of stars

"You used to ignore me, but now you can't climb high." Lobster monster Zhang Wei

"But this time, I'm afraid it will take a while." Pippi shrimp

"There are only two ways in front of them, buy or rent, and the rest is to bargain." International Relations Brick Home

"In my opinion, the idea that they want to buy a mass projector is impossible to realize, and renting it is the most likely." Emperor of Prophecy

"Let's talk slowly, it's better to talk about it for a few years, let's take the moon and Mars first." Qinghai users

"I really want to go to the moon and plant a flag." Users of Guanghangong City, Moon Province

"I heard that on January 1, the Kaohsiung base will send six astronauts to outer space, I wonder when they will open applications for tourists?" Shanghai users

"Space tourism is not bad, but the terrifying acceleration of the mass projector, how do they solve the overload?" Poetry and distance

"Poetry and distance, I won't know until January 1st." Flathead

The other side.

Johnson, chairman of the Committee on the Outer Space Affairs, and Rhine of the Western Space Agency are struggling to find a suitable venue for the conference in Shanghai.

However, the venue needed for such a large-scale international conference is not just a hotel or the like that can be provided, and those university towns or other official venues dare not rent to them without the official appearance of the host.

Now they can only consider those commercial places, such as large hotels and the like, but fortunately, Hilton has a branch in Shanghai, and through this relationship, the Outer Space Committee has successfully rented the Shanghai Hilton Hotel as a conference venue.

The International Outer Space Conference was held on January 5, and many countries close to the Eastern Tang Dynasty had already sent heavyweights to fly over in advance.

However, there are not many forces that can participate in the negotiations at the conference this time, such as the vast majority of countries in Black Europe who are not even qualified, and South Africa has one qualification.

The main participants are the five hooligans, the Galaxy Consortium, the Xizhou Alliance, as well as the Sun Country, Tianzhu, Maple Leaf Country, Tuao, Samba Country, Judah, and the Sand Camel Kingdom.

Although the meeting has not yet begun, there are many private and secret encounters, and everyone is counting the cards in their hands.

Looking at it, the Mi Lijia and the Xizhou Alliance only found out at this time that the cards in their hands could not beat the Dongtang Galaxy Alliance, and before they knew it, they had fallen behind in an all-round way.

Whether it is the industrial base or the high-tech field, they are now lagging behind a lot, and the huge gap between semiconductors and materials science alone makes them feel a lot of pressure.

Shanghai Hilton Hotel.

After Johnson and Maxwell entertained the Tianzhu representatives, they held a small meeting, Maxwell of NASA, Leighton and Rhein of the Western Air Bureau, plus Johnson.

"Mr. Mack, the chances of purchasing a mass projector are slim to none, and I don't recommend that you negotiate this." Johnson opened his mouth to remind Maxwell.

"I know, but always give it a try! Otherwise, it's hard to explain. Maxwell replied with a headache.

"What other cards do we have to play? Except for mushroom eggs. Layton said suddenly.

"......" Maxwell was asked, not knowing how to answer the question.

"The best solution now is to rent them the right to use the quality projector, even if it's a part." Rhine continued.

"But in this case, our aerospace industry will inevitably be controlled by others." Maxwell retorted with an ugly face.

Layton shook his head and mocked: "If you are not controlled by others, you will fall behind completely, choose one of the two, which one do you choose?"

"......" Maxwell was once again powerless to refute.

From the conversations of several people, it is not difficult to find that the differences between the Mi Li family and the Xizhou Alliance are very large, and it is obvious that with the unstable international status of the Mi Lijia, the Xizhou Alliance no longer wants to continue to play a supporting role.

"The Western League Joint Conference has decided to lease the mass projector of the Kaohsiung base to the Galaxy Foundation." Layton uttered a decision that made Maxwell look ugly.

Maxwell felt that he and the Mi Li family had been betrayed, and immediately yelled angrily, "Do you know the consequences of this? You're making enemies! ”

"Can the Mi Li family help the Xizhou Alliance build an International Space Station within a month? I can give you a year. Layton immediately retorted.

"You ......" Maxwell's face was extremely ugly, of course he knew that with NASA's current technology, let alone building the International Space Station in one year, even three years would be enough.

Whether it's NASA itself, or Rockmartin, Boeing, General Motors (not General Motors), Space Exploration, Blue Origin, it's technically possible to complete a brand new ISS in a year or two, but that cost will definitely make the already bad financial situation even worse.

After all, high-thrust launch vehicles, at present, in terms of space transportation, are selling and buying at a loss; And the mass projector is profitable, and the comparison is decided.

Although the state acts and sometimes does not pursue profits, if you can make a little money by the way, who will not be happy with the money.

Gaul, who didn't want to be tied up by the Mi Li family, already planned not to play with the Mi Li family, they ate the scales, and they were ready to lease the Kaohsiung base to the Galaxy Foundation.

Maxwell's chest rose and fell, and he looked at Layton and Rhine angrily and helplessly, and after a sigh of relief:

"I hope you don't regret your decision today."

After saying that, Maxwell left directly, and Johnson, as the chairman of the Outer Space Committee, looked at Maxwell, who was leaving angrily, first said sorry to Leighton and Rhein, and trotted to catch up.

"Humph! There is no hope for the nouveau riche to be aggressive. Layton snorted.

"We can't go on like this, and a united Xizhou can continue to dance on this stage." Rhine said pointedly.

On the other side, Chekov and others from the Maoxiong Space Agency also came to Dongtang, but their foothold was Beiping, and obviously they also had other plans.
