Chapter 346 [Crows in the World]
"Alright, it looks like that's the only way to go, I've never seen such a greedy bastard." Jim Bridenstine didn't hesitate too much, because he didn't have time to talk to the other party, so he agreed to such a distribution ratio.
Although the other party made a lot of money, there was no way, but in this way, NASA not only did not have to pay upside down, but also made a small profit of more than a billion dollars, so it was also acceptable.
As for the younger brothers...... Scold.
Gu Cheng smiled, and also responded with American humor: "Come on, if your teammates can't sell it, they will sell it to death, and I've never seen it so bad." I wouldn't want to make this dirty deal for you if it weren't for the small money, but I can make a lot of money, so why not? ”
Jim Bridenstine shrugged when he heard this, and said to himself: Teammates? Didn't your teammates just sell it at the right time? Now is the right time.
For an object like Lao Mei, Gu Cheng is not afraid of dealing with the other party, and is even willing to deal with it, but this kind of object must not be a friend, at most he can only cooperate with him in a limited way, and he must also cooperate with him cautiously.
Even the teammates who have been with him for decades are sold so ruthlessly, and they are sold so decisively, not to mention the opponents who are hated by the other party?
If you find an opportunity, the other party will definitely go to death, until you die, and you have to continue to kick your feet before you can get rid of your hatred.
This free talk is quite pleasant, after all, they have gained a lot, and there is no reason to be unhappy.
Agreed, Jim Bridenstine stayed for a while before leaving Hive HQ and returning to the hotel for a few hours before returning to North America.
At the same time, the Indian Space Research Organization, ESA and other institutions have received the news.
Knowing the latest developments, the asteroid passed by 100,000 kilometers away from the earth in a thrilling way, and was finally captured by the moon.
This is definitely great news.
You know, just the day before, when I discovered the asteroid that suddenly broke in, and calculated that it was flying towards the earth, everyone shivered and even despaired.
Nothing short of catastrophic news.
However, when they learned that the Asteroid would hit the Jinghai area, the people of the Indian Space Research Organization were directly stunned, and other space agencies from other countries that also sent many astronauts to the region were also confused.
For them, it can really be said that it is a blessing and a disaster, and another even more annoying news also came, Tianqing Technology actually offered 8 billion US dollars for paid rescue compensation.
……
Jim Bridenstin, who returned to the hotel, was not ready to take off and return home, but was communicating with the speakers of various space agencies, and at this moment the head of ESA shouted indignantly on the screen: "Damn, this is an undisguised robbery!" ”
"Is it so willing to be slaughtered by him for $8 billion?"
"That's $8 billion! You can build half of the scale of the Jinghai District base, how can Gu Cheng, that bastard, open an exit? ”
At this moment, the people of the space agencies of various countries connected by video link are becoming more and more indignant.
"Hey, natural and man-made disasters are inevitable, everyone, it's not a matter of money now, there are currently hundreds of astronauts from our countries at the base in Jinghai District, and their lives are priceless, and we can't ignore these great pioneers because of money." Jim Bridenstine sighed and smiled wryly, then said firmly, "No matter what the cost, they must be rescued." ”
His acting skills can be called Hollywood, and his words and deeds fully express his anger and dissatisfaction with Gu Cheng's behavior of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and also show his determination to rescue the astronauts above in "Saving Private Ryan".
When he said this, Jim Bridenstine was about to move himself first.
The other people in the video connection were expressionless, but they were slandering in their hearts: It's easy to say, it's so noble, you have the ability to get all the money out of your Americans?
After a while, the voice of the ESA spokesperson came from the video: "In that case, then pay by capitation, NASA sends the most people, accounting for a large proportion." ”
Aren't you a noble old man, then pay more, and you deserve more, more than half of the astronauts or payload specialists there are from North America.
The others immediately chimed in and said that they could accept this method of funding, saying that they and the Koreans were the most in favor of it, because they sent the least number of people.
Unexpectedly, Jim Bridenstine said on the spot: "Impossible, although NASA's funding has been increased recently, NASA's money is not blown by the wind, it is taxpayers' money." This is not a matter for us to be on the side of the United States, but for all of us, and we are all victims, so we should be united at this time to share the benefits and risks equally. ”
There is nothing wrong with uniting as one, but to pay such a large sum of money for this, it is still not united.
Everyone wanted to respond to the Americans in this way, but they were all expressionless and did not respond. I despise Americans in my heart, and I say so generously and nobilizingly, aren't they all virtuous? Is a generous statement a generous statement to others?
And Jim Bridenstine continued: "Tianqing Technology's eating is ugly, I think you have already seen it, fortunately in another year will be able to break the other party's monopoly in the field of space exploration, once the first flight of the 'Leviathan' starship spacecraft of the American SpaceX company is successful, it will break the existing pattern, no longer have to be exploited by the other party, everyone, look at the long-term." ”
The major speakers of the video connection once again despised the Americans in their hearts, but I am afraid that when the time comes, your American imperialist greed will be more than Gu Chengyou's, and they are all just a raccoon dog.
"We don't have time to think about it, there is only a golden window of one day, after today, even Tianqing Technology will not be able to save hundreds of lives in the Jinghai District base, and at that time, no one can bear this responsibility." Once again, Jim Bridenstine emphasized.
After struggling for most of the day, I finally had to accept it with great reluctance, because there was no other choice.
It's just that a few younger brothers are afraid that they never thought that there was an inner ghost, and this inner ghost is the eldest brother, so it is difficult to not jump in this pit.
After all the video connections were disconnected, Jim Bridensteen's expression changed on the spot, and he said with a smile: "If NASA is not strong, what do you want you to do?" ”
……
This paid rescue worth $8 billion has been successfully signed internally on the same day, Tianqing Technology actually received $5.6 billion, and the rest went to the Americans, and it was evenly divided into more than one billion dollars, which means that the Americans actually earned more than one billion.
Gu Cheng immediately conveyed the latest information from the flight control center and sent it to the Sky Blade spacecraft that was on its way back, and after receiving the news from the headquarters, the spacecraft immediately re-formulated a new course and returned to the moon to save people.
Gu Cheng is not afraid of saving people, these Europeans and Americans will break the contract and repay the debt, he now has more than one trump card in his hand, and he can't stand it if he makes a random appearance.
If they dare to repay the debt, then they can cut off the supply of natural carbonylene with reasonable evidence, and this is not something they can bear;
Secondly, the world's major aerospace powers are competing for the moon, and Gu Cheng's other trump card is the moon's water source.
Nowadays, the two poles of the moon have been occupied by Tianqing Technology Group, once the water is cut off, it will not be able to make a big difference on the moon, relying on the transportation of water from the earth is very unrealistic, even Tianqing Technology can not stand the current high cost.
……
On the third day, NASA officially announced that the asteroid Phaethon with a diameter of five kilometers was flying towards Earth, and only dared to announce it after 100% confirmation that the asteroid would not hit Earth.
For a while, the world was a sensation, and an asteroid from afar became a hot spot overnight, but what made melon-eating netizens even more stunned was that the final impact point of this asteroid was actually in the Moon's still sea area, and there is a lunar base for international cooperation.
How much luck does it take to win the 1 in a billion jackpot?
Immediately afterwards, Tianqing Technology Group also held a media conference, announcing that it had accepted the emergency request for help from NASA and other aerospace agencies, and did not hesitate to accept the paid rescue business.
In other words, this is the second time that Tianqing Technology has undertaken a space rescue mission, and the last time it was free of charge, because there are people from their own country.
But once it was paid, it did not cause much opposition in Europe and the United States, because the people in Europe and the United States reported a fire alarm, and did not pay the financial police.
On the contrary, the melon-eating masses on the earth are looking forward to the spectacle of an asteroid hitting the moon, which happens to be on the front side of the moon and can be observed.
This is a rare cosmic wonder for hundreds of millions of years, as long as it doesn't hit the earth, the people who eat melons all over the world are naturally the ones who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.
