After Wang Fan and Su Qian returned to the Provisional Government of Earth, they first took the guests from outside the world to meet with Chris and several cabinet officials, including Su Rui, who took over the duties of prime minister, and explained to them the necessity of the formation of a brotherly alliance between the three worlds and the upcoming cooperation plan.

At this time, although the earth world has entered an era of peaceful reunification, the mainstream public opinion and people of insight around the world are still full of worries about the uncertainty of the future.

Compared with the developed world in the starry sky, the scientific and technological level of the earthlings is still very backward, especially the military strength to resist foreign invasion is too weak, a handful of alien terrorists can invade the earth and cause a world war, and then in the blink of an eye, all the space bases and space vehicles developed by the earth's human beings for more than two centuries will be destroyed.

Therefore, world public opinion generally believes that after the goal of peaceful reunification of the earth world is reached, the most urgent task of the earth government is to restore the space industry of the earth world as soon as possible, so that society can return to a high degree of informationization, and at the same time form an earth space force that can resist foreign invasion.

Now, Wang Fan has brought a clear message to Chris and other global leaders: the Dopp Galaxy Alliance, where the Earth is located, is facing the danger of being annexed by the Golden Eye Empire, and the Earth World must concentrate its resources to achieve leapfrog development and enter the ranks of the developed world, so that it can not only protect its own world but also make due contributions to the defense of the Alliance.

Under such a background and situation, Chris and others are more aware of the importance and arduousness of Wang Fan's responsibilities, and they unanimously expressed their firm support for the Brotherhood Alliance plan, and said that the Earth Government will mobilize all necessary resources to support the work of Wang Fan and the Brotherhood Alliance.

After gaining the recognition and support of the main leaders of the Earth Government, Wang Fan and Su Qian immediately threw themselves into the concrete work of implementing their grand plan.

The second thing they did after returning to Earth was to convene a meeting of Li Nan and all the members of his alumni association, who were responsible for planning interstellar trade, investment, and the issuance of Earth Yuan during the period when Wang Fan left Earth.

Wang Fan invited representatives of Pakistan and Weinaxing to attend the meeting.

The Aggie couple wore a beautiful hat to cover part of their big cat ears as much as possible, and after this outfit, the two of them would still be more eye-catching than Song Ren and his wife sitting in the conference room, but they would not make their first friends on Earth look different.

Because the time was in a hurry, Wang Fan and Su Qian did not disclose the information of the Brotherhood Alliance to Li Nan and the others in advance.

When Li Nan and the others walked into the conference room, when they saw four strange guests sitting in the conference room at first glance, everyone's facial expressions were a little surprised, but they quickly changed to a smiling face and nodded to greet the guests.

But the four special attendees made them a little restrained, no one giggled and laughed as usual, everyone just said a simple greeting or two to Wang Fan and Su Qian and then sat down in silence.

The four guests from outside the world had already learned from Su Qian what the people who were meeting with them today were.

When the meeting personnel arrived, Su Qian first gave a brief introduction to the four guests to the old classmates, and Li Nan and the others couldn't help but exclaim again and again.

After the introduction, Su Qian said with a smile: "Although the four of them come from two different worlds outside the world, the language is the same as all of us here, the Ba people were originally from this world, and Song Ren and Sun Xiu were once the greatest track and field athletes in the earth world. Mr. and Mrs. Yagu and their cousins Kabayashi and Kapok are like brothers to Dr. Wang, so our three worlds have established a brotherly alliance.

The representatives of our three worlds will work together for a common great goal from today, and I hope that all the old students will not only actively cooperate with the four of them in their work from now on, but also communicate more in private, and invite them to participate in every alumni reunion in the future, so that they can live and work here happily. ”

Subsequently, the meeting entered the theme, Wang Fan informed Li Nan and others of the latest news about interstellar trade, and bursts of cheers resounded in the conference room.

Seeing the situation in front of them, Song Ren and Yaji were completely relaxed when they were still a little nervous, and when Li Nan and the others cheered, they all let out knowing smiles.

After Wang Fan finished speaking, it was Li Nan's turn and others to report on their work in the past three months.

Li Nan said with a smile: "Report to Brother Wang, I can say responsibly that during the period when you and Su Qian went on a business trip to the outer world, we were not lazy, and so far, we have basically completed all the tasks you assigned."

We were divided into three thematic groups to draft three feasibility reports, the first group is responsible for studying the drilling and development of interstellar minerals, the second group is responsible for studying the creation of the Earth Yuan, and the third group is responsible for conducting a detailed investigation of the current status of the world's space science and technology.

Since I led the first panel, I would like to give you a brief briefing.

For more than a century before the world war, the world space industry was in a stage of steady development, so the consumption of various rare metals, including gold, was high. However, the distribution of rare metals on the earth is already very scarce, so many rare metal elements that cannot be collected from the earth as early as 100 years ago, these rare metals are essential raw materials for the manufacture of cutting-edge aerospace and electronic products.

For this reason, several major space powers in the original world had to go to the moon to mine rare metals, but the moon is not only far away but also far more difficult to mine than the earth, so the price of most rare metals has increased almost geometrically in the past hundred years.

We are now faced with a situation in which even if we restore the number of civilian satellites in geosynchronous orbit to pre-war levels, the number of rare metals we need will be in the hundred-ton range. Even if we were able to restart mining on the moon, not only would it be more difficult to mine than before, but it would also be difficult to keep up with the demand.

Therefore, if we can get the support of interstellar cargo spacecraft, going to an alien galaxy to collect rare metals is the best choice, and the Golden Star from our solar system is our greatest hope.

We have conducted on-site visits and negotiations with a number of companies around the world engaged in the smelting of rare metals, and they are all willing to join the interstellar mining business. Fortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Song were able to attend our meeting today, and I hope that you will put forward specific requirements for us to go to the Golden Star Mining and Smelting Work, so that our feasibility report will add your cooperation conditions to completion. ”

Wang Fan looked at Song Ren and Sun Xiu and smiled, "Which of you two is speaking?" ”

Sun Xiu said with a smile: "I have already told King Gu that I accompanied Song Ren to take care of him on earth, and I just made some suggestions at work." ”

Song Ren smiled at Li Nan and the others: "I don't know if you know, I was less than a year old apart from Wang Fan back then, but now he is still young, and I am already old, God is really unfair!" ”

There was a burst of laughter in the room.

Song Ren looked serious and said: "Before I came here, I had a discussion with our Gu Wang and a few colleagues in Pakistan about the joint development of mineral resources with the old world, and we only have one basic request, that is, you provide the necessary mining and smelting equipment and technical personnel, and other required labor is provided by us locally, whether it is gold or any other rare metal, and we will divide the finished product after mining and smelting fifty-fifty."

But we will not leave our share of the gold and rare metals behind, but will ship them back to Earth with your half or resell them to other worlds, and the proceeds from the sale of our half will be used to buy the products needed by the Ba people on Earth, or to share the cost of the future formation of the Space Fleet of the Brotherhood. ”

Song Ren's words won applause from everyone, because the Ba people's request was not only reasonable, but also fully reflected the mutual trust between the brothers.

Yaji motioned to Wang Fan to speak, and Wang Fan smiled and nodded to him in agreement.

Yaji said solemnly: "Everyone, if you want to engage in interstellar mineral development, you can't just focus on the Golden Star, our Weiner Star also has great potential." Maybe you only know that Song Ren has gold all over the mountains, so you think that there will also be other rare metals with high value.

But you may not know the three treasures that we have in Weina Star, the herbs of Qizhou are a treasure, and you may have known it from Wang Fan's mouth. In addition, there is a treasure in Qizhou is the pearl naturally formed in the sea, in the past, because of the seabed people to make trouble, Qizhou people did not dare to go to the sea to collect pearls, but now the sea and land people are brothers with us, so the pearls of Qizhou will be supplied to the market in large quantities.

We have blue gold in the prairie since ancient times, except that the color is blue, in terms of other properties, blue gold is not much different from gold, it should be one of the rare metals you need. The blue gold industry in our prairie is already quite large-scale, but our prospecting and smelting technology is far inferior to that of you earthlings. Therefore, if you go to Vena Star to engage in mining and smelting, the harvest should not be smaller than in Venus.

Since it is a brotherly alliance, our requirements for you are exactly the same as what Brother Song Ren just said. ”

The room erupted in applause again.

Wang Fan immediately made a decision on mineral development: "We will carry out mineral development work in Jinxing and Weiner at the same time, Li Nan's special team will form a mining team as soon as possible, and as soon as my grandfather's cargo spacecraft arrives on Earth, Li Nan will lead the team to Jinxing." The prairie already has a certain industrial base and talents, so the mining equipment and technicians needed will be different from those of Venus, so ask Yaji and his wife to come up with a plan as soon as possible. ”

Next came Guo Liang, who was in charge of the second panel, who said excitedly: "Our plan to create the Earth Dollar originally only considered gold as collateral, and if the blue gold mentioned by Mr. Yaji can be widely accepted by the earthlings or can be used as an important rare metal, then our Earth Dollar will soon become the most popular currency in the global world."

To that end, I would like to start with a brief description of the current state of gold in the earthly world.

Gold is already scarce on Earth, and after thousands of years of mining, it is difficult to find new sources. Before the World War, there were more than 2,000 tons of gold per year for industrial use such as aerospace in the Earth World, but in the last 50 years, global gold production has almost completely come to a standstill due to the absence of gold mines.

However, gold, as the king of hardware, is a rare rare metal with excellent chemical, physical and electronic properties, and has a wide range of applications, including important uses in electronics, communications, aerospace, chemicals, medical and other industrial sectors.

Coupled with the fact that humans on earth have used gold as an ornament and a treasure collection since ancient times, the market price of gold has increased at least tenfold in the past fifty years.

Our latest market research has come to the conclusion that if we get 5,000 tons of high-purity gold from the Golden Star every year, the price of the world gold market will fall by about 20 percent at first, but because the fall in the price of gold will lead to a large increase in demand, coupled with the recovery and reconstruction of the space industry in the earth world, the amount of gold for industrial use will soon exceed that of the pre-war period, and with the further development of the space industry, the demand will increase by at least 10 percent per year.

So the price of gold will remain stable the following year, and the 5,000 tons of gold added each year will keep our Earth dollar strong, and if we can find other rare metals with low mining costs on Venus and Weiner, we will be fully assured of funding to rebuild our planetary space industry.

We've talked to a number of major banks, including the World Bank, and they've all said they're willing to take a stake in our space center-led Earth dollar issuance once our interstellar trade becomes a reality. ”

Finally, Zhang Hong spoke on behalf of the third panel: "The members of our group conducted a comprehensive survey of the current situation of the world's space industry. The world's major space centers were severely damaged in the last world war, and the countries of the original world were too busy with post-war reconstruction to have no funds or motivation to resume their space center work, and most of the world's space technicians were unemployed or idle.

We have classified and counted the personal information of various professional technicians in the world's aerospace field, and we have published on major information platforms that Dr. Wang will lead the reconstruction of the world's aerospace industry, and promised that the Earth Space Center will soon recruit a large number of various aerospace technical talents from all over the world.

However, according to our observations, the world's mainstream media are very pessimistic about the reconstruction of the earth's aerospace technology and industry, they believe that the earth's world has just been reunified and is in ruins, and the earth's government is poor and white, and the reconstruction of the space industry is costly.

Therefore, in order to dispel the doubts of the world, so that our work can gain the support of world public opinion, and let the world's aerospace technicians see their future prospects, we recommend that Dr. Wang announce the grand plan of the Earth Space Technology Center to the world as soon as possible. ”
