[Chapter 536: Launch]
……
"I can see the faces of those old hairy people clearly, I think they are poor and crazy!" After returning to the headquarters of Matrix Technology from Moscow, Liu Yuliang found Ren Hong's incessant complaints, and scolded Soentsev in front of Ren Hong, an old horseman, and the freight of 2.9 billion US dollars was converted into almost 200 billion yuan, and he was dripping blood in his heart when he thought about it.

At this moment, local time, at the moonlit night, the two are heading towards the dome of the "X" shaped building, and a helicopter has been waiting for a long time, and from time to time it will carry the two to the Wenchang Satellite Launch Site, and in a few hours, the launch will begin.
Ren Hong listened to Liu Yuliang keep counting the Russians, smiled lightly, and said: "This 'polar bear' is indeed driven crazy by Westerners, and I also know that there is probably only one such opportunity, our space technology is developing so fast, and the carrying capacity is increasing by ten tons every year, and in a few years, we don't need to seek help from the outside world at all." I can catch as much as I can, if I were to change it, I would talk so loudly, there is only one chance. ”
"Hey~~!" Liu Yuliang suddenly smiled playfully, and said: "The nearly 200 billion (RMB) is not so easy to earn, the agreement contract is there, if Lao Maozi gives me a "fireworks", my core cabin will be blown up, and they can only wear underpants for the winter." ”
The elevator door of the dome of the building slowly opened, and the two walked leisurely towards the helicopter, Ren Hong smiled and looked sideways at Liu Yuliang, and said, "Ha~~!" Lao Maozi's technology is quite reliable, and he has a lot of experience. ”
Liu Yuliang nodded noncommittally, and said: "Having said that, there is an American staring at it next door, the Yankees are notoriously insidious, and they like to stumble on people in secret, so I am afraid that Lao Maozi will be careless, if the Americans secretly make a polar bear and give all of us a century-level fireworks festival worth tens of billions, it will be fun!" ”
Ren Hong nodded slightly and said: "It's possible, after all, if Lao Maozi really blows up my core module, the construction of the new core module will take at least 2 months, and the 'Twin Plan' will definitely be postponed for at least 5 months, and the Americans will be able to take a big step ahead of us, and it is worth taking a risk no matter how you look at it." ”
He smiled again and said, "However, I think the Russians are more concerned about this matter than we do, and their little ruble cannot afford to compensate for this loss, so they are only allowed to succeed and not to fail." ”
"Makes sense!" Liu Yuliang said with a smile.
The two came to the helicopter, boarded the plane one after another, and then went straight to the Wenchang launch center.
On the helicopter, Ren Hong thought for a while and asked, "Where is the core module?" ”
Liu Yuliang checked the information, was silent for a moment and replied: "We have already arrived in the north of the East China Sea, and we will soon arrive at the ice-free port, the Russians are ready, and the core module will be transported from the East Siberian Railway to the launch site, and the launch will be carried out at the launch site in the north of Moscow according to the scheduled time." ”
"In other words, this Yankee is also lucky enough, and he has encountered the golden geographical distribution of the three major stars that are rare in a century, not only to complete the overtaking of the inner ring orbit, but also to use a handful of Venus's gravity for free, and to win a few months of precious time. It seems that the Yankees are also quite smooth. Liu Yuliang said casually.
Ren Hong didn't care, and said: "Half of the volume of 'Noah' is carrying the fuel and supplies needed for the round trip, we only need a slightly larger purple stone to get it, and the space occupied is only the size of a computer desk, but it can reserve a high amount of energy, and the Americans have to wait for Mars to get closer to the launch mission because of fuel and load constraints, us?" It can be done at any time, the difference is just an increase in the voyage time due to the distance and the extra petajoules of energy. Aren't we spending so much energy and dedication just for that big purple rock on the surface of Mars? ”
"Haha! Yes! ”
When the helicopter rushed to the command center of the Wenchang rocket launch base, Ren Hong in the plane looked down through the window, although it was already late at night, but a large number of people still gathered in the outer area of the launch site.
Rockets are the real weapons of a great power.
Among them, there are also some media reporters who want to obtain first-hand information on the scene.
This time, the world's two major super players compete in space, unlike the space battle between the United States and the Soviet Union in the last century. Speaking of which, I have to mention how the "upright" Soviets were "yin" by the Americans, and the then US President Reagan announced during the Cold War that he would spend $1 trillion to formulate the "Star Wars" program, and also released a 3D animation demonstration video that was extremely rare and very advanced at that time.
After the Soviets saw this, they still spent more than $600 billion on rocket technology to seek the so-called "balance of terror" under the overwhelming burden of the national economy at that time.
The Soviets were really fooled, the so-called "Star Wars" plan of the Americans was just a big trick played by Reagan, except for spending some money to make a rare 3D animation, the so-called huge expenditure of one trillion dollars did not even put a fart, but the Soviets had jumped in, and finally were killed alive, and the insidious old United States finally succeeded in the conspiracy, won the victory of the Cold War and established his hegemony.
It is precisely because the former Soviet Union went crazy to engage in rocket technology, as the "eldest son" of the Soviets, the solid foundation laid by the former Soviet Union has made today's Russia have the most powerful rocket in the world today - "Angara A5G"
However, this time, between SA and NASA, or between CMSX and SpaceX, is not a big fool, a big deal about infernal affairs, but really, whether it is the governments or companies of both sides have made heavy bets in the field of space exploration.
According to the analysis of the US "think tank," the field of space exploration is an important node in the new century that may be sufficient to break the existing pattern of the world and its established balance.
The reason why the world is peaceful and stable today, when everyone can buy bags of "melon seeds" and fight war of words on the Internet instead of war, and the real competition between major powers is to fight economically, and the fundamental reason is that they have nuclear weapons that can destroy the whole world. Although today, the "nuclear haze incident" since the beginning of the new century has forced several major nuclear powers in the world to push forward the "Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons" by leaps and bounds, so that nuclear weapons with devastating power have been fully put into storage, nuclear weapons have not been destroyed after all, and the original nuclear powers still have nuclear forces in their hands.
