Chapter 49: Persuasion

At nine o'clock in the morning, a small group of soldiers arrived at the gate of the conference room and took over the defense of the conference room, and several reporters also hurried to arrive.

And until this time, Yu Yifeng and Xu Yunjin also walked over from a distance at the same time.

Yu Yifeng looked at the several scientists who were waiting at the door, frowned slightly, and said directly: "Go in first, let's start the meeting immediately." Preparations for a planetary landing are a matter of great importance, and I am not alone in making decisions. Let's talk about what questions we have. ”

Several leaders of the scientific team were slightly stunned and looked at each other, of course there was a reason why they came here to stop Yu Yifeng......

They were all staunch supporters of the Super Hadron Collider, and they originally wanted to persuade Yu Yifeng in their personal name, but they didn't expect to be rejected directly.

One of the scientists hurriedly followed behind Yi Feng and whispered, "Captain, the work of the Super Hadron Collider cannot be delayed...... Without it, particle physics would be difficult to develop, and we can't afford to delay any longer! ”

"Fundamental physics has been stagnant for too long, too long......"

What he wanted to say, in fact, Yu Yifeng had already guessed it, and he had heard it a little in the past few days.

It stands to reason that there is no room for negotiation in this kind of matter. The Super Hadron Collider occupies too many people, and there are 6,000 designers alone! plus miscellaneous, a total of 15,000 people.

It's not that it's not important, it's that now that people have more important jobs, it's impossible to allocate a large number of people to it.

But what makes Yu Yifeng entangled is that this project has been decided, and a large meeting has been held, and a direct veto will definitely affect the credibility of the new government.

Moreover, he had a vague premonition that this group of crazy physicists was the real spiritual leader of the group of scientists. They do not rely on extraterrestrial creations at all, and challenge the infinite universe with the small wisdom that humans possess.

As a last resort, Yu Yifeng didn't want to hurt their spirit......

With the passage of time, the new human civilization has become more and more simple. What people have to do is to keep climbing technology and lighting up the technology tree! Everyone enjoyed it, and they couldn't help themselves.

There is no such entanglement of interests, people are friendly to each other, and the way of speaking is more straightforward.

These scientists are smart, but sometimes they behave like children.

The "Super Hadron Collider" is something they have been looking forward to for a long time, and it is the "big toy" in the minds of all physicists!

Such toys cost a lot of money, and it was impossible to build them in previous civilizations. A new human civilization is not possible until now......

It's hard to tell them how they're feeling now, so let's take a specific analogy: the parents of the new human civilization, under the soft grinding and hard foam of their children, have agreed to buy this expensive toy.

However, at this time, the whole family suddenly encountered an unexpected event, resulting in a serious economic crisis, and had to give up the purchase plan.

The child's disappointment can be imagined......

This is how many scientists have their hearts and minds.

They know in their hearts that there are more important things to do now, but they are always very unwilling to simply give up the "Super Hadron Collider".

Yu Yifeng also thought about this problem. Although this group of scientists is smart, they are also normal human beings, and they also have seven emotions and six desires, but they cannot be absolutely rational.

Especially for those who are high-energy physicists and particle physicists, the Hadron Collider should be related to their vertical research field. Now the plans may be put on hold, as if they are going to snatch their most precious thing away, which is always very unpleasant.

It's big or small......

At worst, it's just a bunch of people whining; At best, it may even lead to a split in the group of scientists within the civilization.

After all, there are not one or two physicists, and there are top scientists such as Ding Yidong and Felix, and they must have regrets in their hearts.

Yu Yifeng was walking in the conference hall at this time. As soon as the head of the science team said this, he paused for a moment, and then said something that he had been preparing for a long time.

"Mr. Nick, I can't promise anything else, but I'm sure the two thousand core designers will be left for the Super Hadron Collider...... This plan will not be cut directly! ”

"And, shouldn't the previous project be revised? I mean...... In the future, if we have almost unlimited resources, shouldn't we overturn the previous plan and make the Hadron Collider stronger and bigger? ”

"Anyway, you can do whatever you want when the time comes...... You don't have to be in a hurry. The progress of science and technology will always be given top priority. ”

The scientist was slightly stunned.

Although only 2,000 core designers have been secured, it can be guaranteed that the implementation of the Super Hadron Collider project will continue and will not be directly shelved. It's not the best result in mind, and it can only be so-so.

Of course, he himself knows that planetary landings are not sloppy, and the future of mankind is at stake.

But when he heard the next sentence, he immediately felt joy in his heart.

He understood what Yu Yifeng meant, as long as people arrived at that planet and obtained a lot of resources, the government would spare no effort to support any scientific research work!

What are resources used for?

Resources, of course, are used for scientific research!

The total human population is less than 60,000, even if it is extravagant, how much can it be spent? What else can be used for scientific research?

Although the phrase has so far been a blank promise, the scientist named Nick accepted it with a smile.

When I think about it this way, it seems that the mentality is different......

"We're going to make a bigger and stronger collider......"

Nick returned to his place and immediately announced Yu Yifeng's verbal promise. He also had a heated discussion with his companions behind him about how the Super Hadron Collider should be modified......

They are immersed in a world of infinite resources......

After resolving this small conflict, Yu Yifeng went directly to the podium, while Xu Yunjin sat in a position under the podium.

He said solemnly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you have also learned the good news. A terrestrial planet eight times the size of the Earth, about 14 light-years away from our position, and the closest distance is 120 million kilometers if we follow Noah's current trajectory......"

"It is expected that after two years and seven months, we will reach the nearest point. If the trajectory is changed with a nuclear bomb or an ion engine, it should be possible to reach it within three years. However, due to the limited means of observation, we are not able to observe the planet in all directions for the time being. ”

"We don't know what's up there, we don't know if there's an atmosphere on this planet, and we don't know if there's extraterrestrial life...... We know almost nothing but the volume and mass of the planet! But there is no doubt that we must land on this planet and get the resources we desperately need! ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, please use your brains and give full play to your wisdom, and we will be fully prepared in more than two years, about three years!"

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then continued: "Here, I announce - it is planned to use 70%-80% of the spacecraft's reserve resources to complete this preparation!" ”

"This planet, we must take it!"

“…… Whether it is a living motion, an inanimate motion, an atmospheric motion, or an atmospheric motion...... In short, the more detailed the better, and I hope to get the most complete answer possible from you! ”

When Yu Yifeng said this, he sat down and waited quietly.
