Year of the Earth, July 15, 2148

Location: Global Space Strategic Development Base

On behalf of 64 countries with space capabilities around the world, the first Global Space Strategy Development Conference was held in the Vatican, a permanently neutral country.

Zhang Jin, representative of the Chinese side, Tolsviko of the British side, James Ravich representative of the American side, representatives of the Russian side, representatives of the French side and representatives of other countries.

Inside the conference hall

Zhang Jin said slowly: "Ladies and gentlemen, now the earth's energy has reached the point of depletion, and there are only four countries that have mastered controllable nuclear fusion technology, namely China, the United States, Russia, and the United Kingdom (because of Brexit, economic turmoil, the United Kingdom cannot be studied alone, according to the requirements and technical support provided by the United States, it is decided to jointly develop with the EU countries, and because the main technology is in the United Kingdom, only the United Kingdom is released). Some other countries have mastered fission technology, and some are still at the level of primitive energy, which is a major obstacle to global development, so China proposes that the countries that have mastered controlled nuclear fusion technology disclose their core technologies to solve the existing global energy problems, and the price is that the world should provide all the resources, including human resources, needed for the global space strategic development project without restrictions, and this decision is adopted by the five permanent members of the United Nations and has legal effect. Guys, do you have any objections? ”

A representative of a small South American country stood up with an annoyed look and said: "This is not good for us, our country's industrial base, scientific and technological base is weak, and we cannot participate in this plan." Then he said coldly: "Hmph, in my opinion, this is another conspiracy between your great powers, trying to grab our resources in a righteous and bright way, this is impossible, we will not be such a victim." Then he slammed the table again

"Sir, I think you have misunderstood, this is not a plundering of resources, but a rescue. 6. Allow me to explain it to you and to all of you," said Tolsviko.

"Our world has changed dramatically over the past 50 decades, first with the invention of nullable fusion technology by China, and then by the United States, Russia, and the United Kingdom with the European Union. Then, most countries around the world entered the primitive energy stage and the era of nuclear fission, but the world's energy reserves have reached a state of depletion, which is a fatal blow to us. Seeing that no one spoke, he continued, "Therefore, the five permanent members of the Security Council proposed a plan for the development of space resources." Therefore, we need to put the resources we have in the world into this plan, and this is the only way forward for us."

"Everyone," an old voice said.

People looked at the source of the voice, an old man with sunken eyes and sharp eyes, this was none other than Ravitch. He was supported by the person next to him and slowly stood up and said: "Everyone, when our ancestors descended from the trees to the land, they were used to looking up at the starry sky, when the first telescope appeared, human beings couldn't wait to look at the sky, when the Soviet Union Gagarin used a rocket, through the thick atmosphere, the first time he entered space, this journey has begun, and there is no end."

"This is impossible, we will never use the few resources we have left to bet with you stupid lunatics that the success rate is not 0.1% at all, we will never accept it" After saying that, he got up and left the conference hall, and after taking two steps, he turned his head and said in a sarcastic tone: "You stupid madmen" and then turned and left.
