Chapter 349: National Reactions
Huaxia completed a manned landing on the moon in a short period of time and developed nuclear fusion technology.
This directly caused a huge sensation in the international community, as if it was a hurricane sweeping through all countries in the world.
The President of the United States convenes a state meeting at the White House, where his think tank gathers to think of ways to respond.
The President of the United States slapped the table and shouted loudly: "The current international situation is extremely complicated, and we have been surpassed by China in all aspects such as technology and economy.
Now it is a little inadequate to maintain the state of competition between the two strong.
We have been consuming the accumulated foundation, and if we do not make technological breakthroughs, our great America will only become an ordinary country. It is also possible to survive on the nose of others.
Now anyone can see that the direction of the country's development lies in space technology, in controlled nuclear fusion technology. ”
Tom, an international thinker, said: "We still have to maintain a strong military deterrent capability.
We are now barely maintaining a strategic balance with Huaxia, because we can destroy the earth a hundred times, and others are helpless.
We have a strong nuclear capability and a nuclear strike capability.
This is the cornerstone of maintaining world peace, and if the balance of nuclear capabilities is upset, it will have a fatal impact on our country. ”
He is a representative of the hawks, behind him are arms groups, the total amount of state capital is certain, and he certainly does not want the state to invest resources in other areas.
"Mr. President, in the industrial world, there is no product that can be kept secret for a long time.
The level of secrecy of our hydrogen bomb is extremely high, and a few years after we detonated the hydrogen bomb, the former Soviet Union also conducted a hydrogen bomb detonation experiment.
The technical standards for their hydrogen bomb are exactly the same as those for China's hydrogen bomb.
At present, there are only two technical standards for hydrogen bombs in the world, one is the technical standard developed by Chinese scientists, and the other is the technical standard developed by Chinese scientists. Our technical standards have spread.
Even this kind of strategic technology can be used in a short period of time, let alone other technologies.
Back in those days, it was really difficult to replicate a technology.
But with the power of one country, everything will be easy.
We sent people to observe Xinghuo Technology's controllable nuclear fusion power station.
And through a high-performance computer, the project was simulated repeatedly.
As long as we settle down for a few years, we will definitely develop a controlled nuclear fusion technology.
China's space exploration technology is also very advanced, and as long as we make great efforts and are willing to invest, we will certainly achieve more results. ”
The US president frowned and said: "The problem now is that there is no money at home, we have to maintain a strong army, and we have allocated a lot of money in the field of scientific research."
Continued investment in space technology or nuclear fusion technology will require convincing Congress to make a special appropriation.
I believe that Congress will pass, but the members of Congress will need to fight for a long time and will miss the opportunity for development. ”
Jerry, a think-tank, proposed: "President, you have a huge power in your hands, which was deeply exploited by a previous president.
He is constrained by both parties in Congress, and the East and West Congresses that he supports will definitely oppose it.
He did this by declaring a state of emergency, and as soon as the country was in a state of emergency, the power of the president would become very great.
One of the typical powers is the ability to divert money that has already been planned.
Mr. President, you have used this authority to divert an important military appropriation.
Is Congress going to see a gap in our defense, and they're going to keep pouring money? ”
When the US president heard the advice of the think tank, he immediately made up his mind: "I will exercise this right immediately, and we must catch up with China in the aerospace industry and the energy industry."
Huaxia Xing, we will definitely be able to do it. There is no secret in modern industry, as long as we are willing to invest, I believe that we will be able to develop results.
Huaxia belongs to leapfrog development, we can't reach this level for a while, but we can keep up with Huaxia by running in small steps. ”
The president of the United States took advantage of the power granted to him by the state of emergency to begin to adjust the direction of the United States.
Together with capital, he focused on promoting the development of the aerospace industry and at the same time carried out the exploration of controlled nuclear fusion technology.
After they got started, they found that it was really impossible to surpass Huaxia, and it was extremely difficult to catch up with Huaxia.
Especially for controlled nuclear fusion, scientists have no idea what kind of material can withstand the temperature of a thermonuclear reaction without relying on a tokamak device.
Scientists in the United States have doubts in their hearts, Huaxia trip, they really may not be able to do it.
Russia, as a regional power, has gradually become the hegemon in the world when it sees China catching up.
The Russian president has a sour heart, if there is no fault line in domestic talent, economic income will continue to grow.
There is still hope for them to catch up, and there is no hope in sight now.
In particular, Huaxia has made breakthroughs in the technology of carbon dioxide to produce ethylene, and has carried out a series of fossil energy substitutions.
As a result, China's domestic oil and gas is enough to be used only by virtue of the total amount of domestic exploitation.
Oil and gas exports, which account for more than 80% of Russia's foreign trade revenues.
Without the world's largest buyer of oil, the entire oil industry collapsed.
They are now licking their wounds, the main thing is to integrate the domestic industrial chain and restore the domestic economic situation.
Even if China and the United States carry out scientific and technological competitions, military competitions and other forms of competition.
Russia does not have the strength to join the race.
The small town of Brussels, which is the seat of the European Parliament.
The countries of the European Union are hotly debating and the world has now reached a fork in the road.
Whoever can occupy space resources will own the future.
Just like in the Age of Discovery, if you don't go overseas to explore colonies, the country will be left behind by other countries and will soon decline.
The President of the European Parliament is excitedly saying: "The EU is an economic union that supports each other politically, and now it is going to turn it into a technological union."
None of us in this room can enter the high-end technology field alone.
If we want to develop space technology and controlled nuclear fusion technology, we must bring together scientists from our various countries to come up with a feasible plan. ”
The EU Parliament began voting, and the result was not at all surprising, and this meeting, like the usual meetings, did not produce any progress.
Each member of the EU has a veto, and as long as one country is harmed because of its own interests, no project can be broken through.
No project is absolutely perfect and meets everyone's requirements.
The big EU countries, led by Germany and France, also want to work hard, but they can't afford to bring a group of pig teammates.
The project has not yet officially begun, and it has already died in the preparation stage.
The big country still has the spirit and wants to try to catch up with the footsteps of China.
Small countries don't even dare to think about it, they don't have the technology, the talent, the capital, and even if they do, it's just a pipe dream.
